The Felling of The Tree at Sycamore Gap.
The above tree is famous. First and foremost, as it stands in a gap between two hills with Hadrian's Wall as a background, it featured in the movie "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" starring Kevin Costner and Morgan Freeman. Many others have come to see the tree and be at one with nature. It attracts many tourists, and it is a favourite amongst photographers because of its natural setting and beauty. Plus, those who come to see Harian's Wall come across or know already about the famous tree at Sycamore Gap. So, this tree is not only famous but gives locals and visitors pleasure in just being there beside the tree.

Anthony Albanese: Ban on Social Media for Teens.
For a long time, I have felt there should be a ban on young people under 16 having access to social media. One Australian advocate and supporter, Wayne Holdsworth, lost his son due to malicious events on social media. Mr. Holdsworth described the ban as "As a start". Mr. Holdsworth became an age restriction advocate after losing his son, as described. Mr. Holdsworth is not the only one backing the ban. Many Australian families have also backed Prime Minister Albanese's ban. I think from a moral point of view, it is a good thing. However, as Mr. Albanese has pointed out, "It will not be easy".

Trump: What's He Planning?
Who would have thought the US would be facing another moustachioed dictator who looks alarmingly like Saddam? But there you go, folks, history has a way of repeating itself. Long accused of being a drug lord and giving the US the middle finger, Nicolas Maduro has been a thorn in the side of the US. The first Trump administration tried to replace him with a Venezuelan candidate more to their liking. However, for whatever reason, it didn't come off, and Maduro remained in power.

Ukrainian Refugee Wins Sumo Tournament.
When Russia invaded Ukraine, many Ukrainians fled. One Ukrainian fled to Japan and at 21 became a Sumo champion. Little did Danylo Yavhusishyn know that his path to Japan would take him to the heights of Sumo wrestling. At first, Sumo wrestling can seem a little odd. Two overweight men are grappling to get the other one out of the ring. Of course, that is to make light of this traditional style of Japanese wrestling as opposed to Western wrestling. Athletes need to eat a special diet and train to get to the size this combat sport requires.
