A flight attendant has revealed the ‘punishment’ she metes out to passengers who refuse to swap seats to help families with young children – and says 80 percent of her trips are now plagued by similar requests.
Mitra Amirzadeh, a flight attendant based in Orlando, said seat-swap requests have become so frequent they occur during eight out of her ten monthly shifts.
While she rarely intervenes, Amirzadeh, 38, said she will step in as a meditator when a child is
Israel has fired two military commanders and reprimanded a third over a drone strike in Gaza that killed seven World Central Kitchen workers on Monday, saying they had mishandled critical information and violated the army’s rules of engagement.
The workers from the charity, which provides food relief in crisis and conflict zones, were killed when their convoy was hit repeatedly on Monday night shortly after they oversaw the unloading of 100 tons of food brought to the Palestinian territory by
British holidaymakers arriving in Tenerife for the Easter break have been met with anti-tourist graffiti – and a tense reception from locals.
Residents living in the Canary Islands have declared war and say they are ‘fed-up’ of British tourists who only ‘drink cheap beer, lay in the sun and eat low quality food’.
They say airbnbs are pushing up the costs of renting and the cost of living while they are sick of the noise and rubbish pollution that comes
Heute hat Steam Steam Families gestartet, eine Überarbeitung seines Familienfreigabesystems. Das neue System beseitigt die Beschränkungen, wie viele Personen Spiele aus einer Bibliothek spielen können, erleichtert den Kauf von Spielen für Ihre Kinder und fügt neue Kindersicherungs- und Freigabeoptionen hinzu.
Früher mussten Sie zwei verschiedene Systeme verwenden – Familienfreigabe und Familienansicht – wenn Sie Ihre Bibliothek teilen, aber die Spiele, die Ihre Kinder spielen durften, einschränken wollten. Auch beim alten Ansatz konnte jeweils nur eine Person ein Spiel aus der
Das WFP wird sagen, dass es moralisch und politisch notwendig ist, einen dauerhaften Waffenstillstand zu unterstützen und die uneingeschränkte Militärhilfe für Israel zu beenden.

Präsident Biden wird am Donnerstagabend eine Rede zur Lage der Nation im Wahljahr halten, in der der Demokrat sein Bestes tun wird, um Bedenken hinsichtlich seines Alters zu zerstreuen und
There are just some things you don’t do without preparation. You’re not meant to drive a car without taking lessons and passing a test. You aren’t supposed to scuba dive without certification. You can’t teach—or practice law, or therapy, or cosmetology—without first proving your knowledge. But you can become a parent without any training at all—and that’s a pretty high-stakes position.
Parents today arguably face steeper expectations than ever before. Over the past half century or so, “intensive parenting” has
Twice a week, I stagger out of the front door in my slippers and pyjamas to collect our fresh, organic (obviously) milk and put out the empty glass bottles for the milkman to re-use.
These days, I wouldn’t dream of buying milk in plastic. Nor my veg, come to that. It’s delivered by electric vehicle or I cycle to our local farmer’s market with my hemp tote bags.
The small amount of plastic that does enter our house is religiously
Long before the Sacklers appeared on the scene, families like the Astors, the Peabodys, and the Delanos cemented their upper-crust status through the global trade in opium.
Through most of human history, opium circulated in very small quantities and was used primarily as a medicine. Anatolia was probably the region in which farmers first began to cultivate poppies as
Most will downplay and dismiss it, especially when pressed in front of a microphone. They’ll claim it’s the last thing on their radar, then lean on some trusty clichés to get through a few weeks of uncomfortable news conferences: on to the next practice, the next meeting, the next game. They’ll say there’s no point in worrying about what they can’t control.
But privately, the worry is in the back of their minds and in the pits of their stomach.
Contaminated blood scandal victims today said Rishi Sunak ‘should be ashamed’ for holding out against a new compensation body.
The PM last night suffered a humiliating defeat in the Commons after dozens of Tory MPs rebelled to support a Labour policy to speed up access to payment for affected Brits.
Campaigners said Mr Sunak had to be ‘dragged kicking and screaming’ to properly compensate victims and warned he was on the ‘wrong side of history’. Another said it should ‘never
