100 Greatest Britons 100 Greatest Britons was broadcast in 2002 by the BBC. The programme was based on a television poll conducted to determine whom the United Kingdom public considered the greatest British people in history.[1][2] The series, Great Britons, included individual programmes featuring the individuals who featured in the top ten, with viewers having further opportunities to vote after each programme.[3] It concluded with a debate. All of the top 10 were dead by the year of broadcast. The poll resulted in nominees including Guy Fawkes, who was executed for trying to blow up the Parliament of England; Oliver Cromwell who created a republican England; Richard III, suspected of murdering his nephews; James Connolly, an Irish nationalist and socialist who was executed by the Crown in 1916; and a surprisingly high ranking of 17th for actor and singer Michael Crawford (the second highest-ranked entertainer, after John Lennon).

Manoush Zomorodi: Mama Entrepreneur: Ex-NY Times Editor Turns Media Mogul I'm really into the term "Work-Life Integration" right now, having given up on "Work-Live Balance." So I've been talking to some entrepreneur mommies in my Brooklyn neighborhood to find how they get through the day while building a business and family. Here's a profile of Holly Epstein Ojalvo. She is founder and editor-in-chief of a new news site called Kicker. The idea behind Kicker is to present news in plain language for younger people or just those of us who don't have time to read our Twitter feed all day every day. Holly Epstein Ojalvo, Editor-in Chief of Kicker: I'm Holly. MZ: Why/when did you decide to leave a "real" job and start out on your own? HEO: Having a vision that I'm very passionate about is the number one reason. MZ: What's been the best/worst thing about being a lone operator? HEO:The best thing is that I'm really excited to get to work every day. MZ: How did you deal with your biz during Hurricane Sandy? Know a mama whose working it in an unusual way?
She Was Called The World's Ugliest Woman, Now She's An Inspiration by Kase Wickman 3/17/2015 Imagine you’re 17 years old. You’re surfing the web, procrastinating. Except, in all likelihood, when you click a video plainly titled “THE WORLD’S UGLIEST WOMAN,” you won’t see your own face looking back at you. This is what happened to Lizzie Velasquez, now 26 years old. While she’s been bullied by forces seen and unseen — cruel playground taunts, strangers sneering on the sidewalk, commenters on that YouTube video telling her to do unspeakable things and calling her unrepeatable names — instead of retreating into herself, Velasquez has taken full ownership of her own story and turned it into a force for good. Embedded from www.youtube.com. And now, at this year’s South by Southwest Film Festival, Velasquez took yet another step forward in her personal journey with the debut of “A Brave Heart: The Lizzie Velasquez Story.” Embedded from www.youtube.com. “I get a lot of it still from my TED Talk, actually,” she said. “I would absolutely say thank you,” she said.
Creating a Legacy Project [Note: This 3,000 word article is all about creating your own legacy project. It’s not short reading, but it can help you work towards building something beautiful.] In the spring of 2007 I was feeling stuck. As amazing as they were, the four years I had spent in Africa were fading off into the distance. In my new life I had migrated to Seattle, entered graduate school, started a new business, and began traveling independently to faraway places during school breaks. These were all good projects. I had no legacy project, and it really bothered me. I thought of a legacy project as something I’d create that would outlast me; something I could point to years from now and have more than just memories to show for it. As I was looking for a new focus, I considered a few options that initially seemed to be good choices. 1. 2. 3. All three of these options were attractive, but the more I looked at them the more I realized they were all flawed. The next option, “Enter a Ph.D. Things to Think About

Ten ways talking in English baffles Swedes A Viking - sometimes pronounced 'Wiking', in Sweden. Photo: Shutterstock While Swedes were recently ranked the world's best non-native English speakers, there are a few common - and often charming - mistakes The Local's team has spotted while chatting to them in their second language. 1. Sheep shoes We absolutely adore how ‘ch’ often becomes ‘sh’ in Swedish, but it sometimes baffles us. Sheep and children. 2. Those Swedish Vikings may have braved rough waters and conquered distant lands – but one thing their descendants haven't all managed to do is distinguish between the English letters ‘v’ and ‘w’. We cannot independently verify the authenticity of the Vikings in this photo. 3. The difference between letters 'y' and 'j' may not be as apparent to the native Swedish speaker as it is for those of us for whom English is our mother tongue. Yoolery, also known as jewelery. 4. As opposed to restaurant. What Swedes might refer to as a 'restaurang'. 5. No, not the planet. 6. One foot, two feet.
