When Alex Jones met Dolly Parton backstage, unmadeup and open-hearted, it only underlined what a generous, remarkable, warm and very smart woman she was.
What a loss.

An example to all of an individual who puts her money where her mouth is. Dolly seems to be a truly humble and caring person. She gives without self congratulating.

Scene outside the royal palace in Oslo right now. People are celebrating, because in the end this is a huge win for Norwegian soccer.

This expresses what I think a lot of England fans feel.
If we're going to get beaten, I'd rather it be by Norway than any other team. You can't help loving the Norwegian fans and of course, their main man, Erling Haaland, who has been brilliant. I just hope it's an entertaining game and the best side wins, without any controversies. #England 🏴

Some of us remember Norway's 1981 victory knocking England out of qualification for the 82 World Cup.
The celebrated final minute of commentary is worth listening to.
Then, Norway were the underdogs. Today they're riding high....

It is absurd to use AI in online searches, or translation, or car navigation, but then to ban it in producing content
Let's accept that AI is a tool and focus on how well or badly it is used, rather than banning its use altogether.
What do you think?

Not sure about this pre-match show at the Champions League Final. I want the punditry and build up!
Anyway, come on Arsenal. Keep it together for the first 20 minutes and it's everything to play for!
