Prince iconic superstar and pioneer of American
music dies at 57:
‘Purple Rain’ singer whose sprawling career
spanned decades and genres died at his Paisley Park recording studio
in his home state of Minnesota last week, leaving a gaping hole in
musical genres as diverse as R&B, rock, funk and pop. The death was
announced by his publicist Yvette Noel-Schure after police had been
called to the premises which double as his music studio in the
Minnesota city.
A museum dedicated to excrement with examples
from the animal and human world has opened to the public:
The exhibition at the Isle of Wight Zoo in the
United Kingdom features faeces from animals such as elks and lions
as well as a human baby. The National Poo Museum has been created by
members of the artist collective Eccleston George. “Poo is all
around us and inside us, but we ignore it,” said co-curator, Daniel
Roberts.

Well I’ve heard of a news cycle, but seriously!
The Kohinoor story seems to be astride some kind of Ducati superbike.
On Tuesday afternoon I was called into a BBC television studio to
discuss the Indian Government’s decision not to seek the return of
the diamond.
