I finally got through to Homes for Ukraine and registered whom I could accommodate — adults with children. I gave the first part of my postcode, offered a home for six to nine months, gave permission for them to contact me, my full name, phone number and email address, ticked the box to say I agreed for the information given to be used and tried to continue. 

Hopeful sorority sisters are forking over thousands of dollars to 'rush' consultants to cleanse their social media and to give them tips on how to dress all in the hope they'll be one of the few 'running home' to their top pick. 

The deal cuts some $21.4 billion from the IRS, which gained an additional $80 billion in funding from Democrats last Congress, but only immediately claws back $1.4 billion. White House officials said Biden agreed to shift $10 billion from the IRS to other funding priorities in fiscal year 2024 and another $10 billion in fiscal year 2025. 

But on average, for those living the lavish Greek lifestyle at Alabama, it could cost them up to $4,000 to $10,000 in expenses - depending on if a girl lives in one of the mansions that dot Sorority Row. 

'Based on Bryant's immediate and surprised tone following the second third party's reply, EOCR finds it more likely than not that it was at that moment Bryant first learned that [Bettinger] made a statement about protestors making speed bumps,' the report said. 

House Democrats helped Kevin McCarthy pass the debt limit deal he made with President Joe Biden that will suspend the $31 trillion limit for two years in a 314 to 117 vote in the House late Wednesday night 

There were times that one side will say to the others, maybe we need to give up. Maybe we have to have somebody else different in the room,' McCarthy said. 'But the one thing that happened is that we didn't give up.'

I think I used all the spoons. It's easy to do. I don't think I'm giving too much away when I say there are fairies there who bring you things and do the washing up, so you can stand there shouting, "Bowl!" and one will appear like magic.' 

Bryant also filed a complaint with the school's Office for Equal Opportunity and Civil Rights (EOCR), where the student activist claimed Bettinger had made the statement five times and had discriminated against Bryant on the basis of race. 

Which is what happened to Keira.

At 16, far too young to give informed consent, she was referred to GIDS. After just three appointments she was prescribed puberty blockers to stop her periods and breasts developing before starting to take the male hormone testosterone a year later. 

‘I practised like a madman. I was up at 6.30 every morning making shortcrust pastry.

Did I go in to win? Oh yes. I'm very competitive. What's the point of doing anything if you're not going to do your best? Even if you end up coming last, you want the competition to be good.'

She insists she told a trucker blocking the road she was glad he was there to avoid a repeat of the 2017 Unite the Right rally, when a white supremacist struck and killed anti-racism protester Heather Heyer. But Bryant claimed Bettinger had suggested she wished to harm George Floyd protesters 

The activist's Twitter thread garnered a lot of hatred toward Bettinger, with people posting the student's Facebook account, photos of her profile picture with the Blue Lives Matter banner, and photos of her and her later father in his uniform. 

Filtered water starts out as plain tap water. You may already have filtered water in your home by way of a whole-house filtration system, a faucet filter or a water filtration pitcher (you can even get a filtered water bottle). Most filtered water passes through some combination of carbon and micron filters, which help to remove chemicals such as chlorine (commonly added to municipal tap water as a disinfectant) and pesticides, and metals like copper or lead. Filters can also eliminate foul odors and tastes.

It doesn't even include the new wardrobe or makeup for rush week, nor does it factor in the varying prices for rush consulting - a program that promises to coach girls to receive a successful bid on Bid Day (pictured: Zeta Tau Alpha, Phi Mu and Alpha Deta Phi) 

Distilled water is great for so many things around your house, from car maintenance and air humidifiers to watering plants and adding fresh water to your aquarium. But you don't need to spend money buying gallons of distilled water from the grocery store, because you can actually make it at home. Do be aware that it lacks some of the nutrients that other store-bought options have. Don't worry, we'll explain. 

Distilled water is a more specialized type of purified water, but much easier and cheaper to produce at home. As with purified water, it meets the classification requirement of 10ppm (parts per million of total dissolved solids, aka contaminants) or less. The process of distilling is simple: Heat tap water to the point that it turns to vapor. When the vapor condenses back to water, it leaves behind any mineral residue. The resulting condensed liquid is distilled water.
