Officials are planning to impose a tax on visitors this coming summer, charging nearly $3 (2 pounds) per night per person for overnight stays, according to Liverpool Business News.

    December 28, 2024 - By 

    A betting person might give better odds to the American star in the ring, but when it came to on set behaviour, Michael Caine swiftly put his co-star in his place. In fact, Sylvester Stallone found the whole Escape to Victory shoot eye-opening and physically brutal and later admitted he’d arrogantly had no idea what he was getting into. His demand that his character score the winning goal despite being a goalkeeper certainly did not go down well and was immediately dismissed. The actor had publicly declared he had thought football was a “sissy sport” – until it put him…

    December 28, 2024 - By 

    Homelessness in the U.S. jumped 18.1% this year, hitting a record level, with the dramatic rise driven mostly by a lack of affordable housing as well as devastating natural disasters and a surge of migrants in some regions of the country, federal officials said Friday. More than 770,000 people were counted as homeless in federally required tallies taken across the country during a single night in January 2024, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development said in its new report. The estimate likely undercounts the number of unhoused people given that it doesn’t include people staying with friends or family…
