Emma Di Palma, a 23-year-old Canadian, was shocked and heartbroken when her boyfriend suddenly decided to break up with her. What’s more painful is that they were only a week…
We're at our first stop/transfer so we're doing well so far. I've been up since 3am so I'm feeling a bit wibbly in the wobblies but overall not too bad. I slept a little on the plane so I'm feeling a bit better. Now we just have to wait until the afternoon for our next flight

Ethan Freeman has been a beloved star of the stage for over fourty years. His credits include being the first Jewish actor in history to perform the role of The Phantom in The Phantom of the Opera (performing the role on West End and also in Toronto, Vienna and Germany,) and being chosen by Disney to originate the role of "The Beast" for Disney’s Beauty and the Beast European premiere.
Other credits include: Javert in Les Miserables (West End,) and creating the dual role of Jekyll and Hyde for the original German premiere.
In recent years he has also become known for another artform: painting. Since October he has used this medium to fundraise for the MDA, donating the money for every painting sold to the charity.

Drawing collected by Felix Platter, to be used in Gessner's Historiae animalium. The drawings were made by several artists, mostly anonymous, and were collected between 1546 and 1558 (this one must date to no later than 1554 as it served as a reference for Gessner's woodcut published that year).
