He told Kelly that the two love to jet ski and sing karaoke when they are together on the leader's private island. Rodman also revealed that he was the third choice to meet Kim Jong-un when he first traveled to North Korea. 'He was asking about my basketball in America. And his favorite team was Chicago. The Bulls. He asked Michael Jordan - he asked the team for Michael Jordan. And Michael said, no,' said Rodman. 'He asked Scottie Pippen. "No, I'll pass that one." He asked me, "I said, okay, I'll go." As blind as I was, I think I'm going for another gig, shaking hands, taking pictures and stuff like that. I didn't know anything about.' Greetings: Dennis Rodman used a appearance on Megyn Kelly Today on Tuesday to try and humanize Kim Jong-un, who he … [Read more...] about Megyn Kelly mocks North Korean ‘diplomat’ Dennis Rodman as former NBA star reveals he was THIRD choice to meet Kim Jong-un after fellow Bulls Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen refused the invite

Restore grant system for poor students, urges Russell Group chief
Ministers must reinstate maintenance grants for poor students wanting to go to university, the head of the group representing the leading universities has urged. UK students from low-income families were awarded up to £3,387 a year until 2016 and the restoration of the grant system would make a “substantial difference” to people who were “nervous” about student debt, according to Tim Bradshaw, the chief executive of the Russell Group. “I think if you give a grant to those students then you might encourage even more to consider applying for university in the first place and think it is actually something they can really aspire to – and that it won’t land them in additional debt at the end of the day,” he told the Independent.

Everything Is Recorded: Everything Is Recorded By Richard Russell review – mogul music with a stellar cast

By many people’s definitions, you’d be about as fulfilled, three-dimensional and jammy a human as there is. In 2015, your net worth was guessed at £75m, but your impact on British music is harder to calculate. Then imagine being paralysed. One minute, you’re putting out Gil Scott-Heron’s final album. And then – insert an obscure sound effect here, the kind that you collect – you’re laid low by Guillain-Barré syndrome, an autoimmune disease that attacks the nervous system. It’s 2013, you’re in hospital, and you can just about twiddle your fingers. Geoff Barrow, on behalf of Portishead, sends you a dinky synth – a pocket piano by … [Read more...] about Everything Is Recorded: Everything Is Recorded By Richard Russell review – mogul music with a stellar cast
