Paul McCartney to do something brand new…..

LONDON (AP) – Paul McCartney is writing his first stage musical, an adaptation of the classic movie “It’s a Wonderful Life.“

The ex-Beatle is collaborating with “Billy Elliot“ playwright Lee Hall and West End producer Bill Kenwright.
McCartney said he’d never considered writing a musical, but after meeting Kenwright and Hall three years ago, “found myself thinking this could be interesting and fun.“

Frank Capra’s 1946 film tells the story of George Bailey, a small-town banker wracked with regret who is shown the value of his life by a guardian angel.

Producers say they are aiming for a late 2020 launch.

If you visit Berkeley, you should know there are some words you can’t use anymore…..

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) – Officials in Berkeley, California have taken steps to make sure people use gender-neutral words. The city has passed an ordinance to replace some common terms with those that don’t favor men.

Gone is the use of “manhole” – the city code will now refer to them as “maintenance holes.” Same goes for “manpower;” it will be replaced with “workforce.”

In all, more than two dozen commonly used terms are being replaced with gender-neutral forms. The changes have

had wide support in a city that has a long history of being on the leading edge of political and socially liberal issues. But critics have suggested that the city council spend time on more important matters.
