20. The Gunner’s Dream (1983)Low on memorable tunes, big on racked, strangulated lead vocals, possessed of a worldview that makes every other Pink Floyd album look like a gushing font of Pollyanna-ish optimism, The Final Cut is a slog. But The Gunner’s Dream cuts through the gloom, thanks to a heartbreaking, fragile melody.19. Wot’s … Uh the Deal? (1972)Overshadowed by the albums that preceded and followed it, Obscured by Clouds might be the most underrated release in Pink Floyd’s catalogue: it boasts fantastic instrumental experiments, musical signposts to The Dark Side of the Moon and, in Wot’s … Uh the…

It also provides a mechanism for reviewing whether the law was applied correctly to your case. It’s not, however, designed to re-examine factual disputes or allow you to present new evidence that wasn’t available during the original trial. With all of that being said, the decision to appeal…

Young people dominated the hospital crowd, which makes sense, since Kirk’s major accomplishment was to promote his brand of right-wing politics to a cohort that has historically been uninterested in it. Kirk was many things: charismatic, politically canny, polemical, ruthless. His organization, Turning Point USA—with its mission to “win America’s culture war”—was arguably the right’s most successful new political group. A talented demagogue, he attacked trans people, LGBTQ people, Black people, Muslims, and women, and his arguments were often misleading, ahistorical, or rankly hypocritical. But because his public appearances so often took the shape of a seemingly fair debate—two citizens…

Zambia’s government says it will seek more compensation for communities affected by a toxic spill from a Chinese-owned copper mine, if this is needed following a full assessment.

Some embassies have warned…

Under the bright sun of East Africa, where the historic Nile flows, Ethiopia is emerging with pride and determination. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), located on the Blue Nile, represents more than just its physical structure; it embodies our collective spirit, the essence of our sacrifices, and our national pride. For many years, Ethiopia witnessed the Nile’s waters flowing away without benefiting its own citizens. Despite contributing over 85% of the Nile’s water, we remained quiet observers in history. Now, with GERD, we assert ourselves not through anger, but through justice and confidence. We have found our voice, resonating…
