The right ending?
Article Abstract:
John Charmley, senior lecturer in English history at the University of East Anglia, admits that he has taken a risk in writing about the ailing condition of modern Conservatism in his latest book since he is totally opposed to the idea of contemporary history. However he explains that the Conservative Party presents an interesting challenge to a political historian. Charmley admits to being a fan of ex-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and claims that Labour Party leader Tony Blair could quickly become her true heir if he changed parties.

Imagine a world without bra warmers
Article Abstract:
Eccentricity is more common in England than in the US and is a leisure activity. Eccentrics are common in the academic world which being colorful can attract students. Eccentrics are non-conformist, creative, intelligent, non-competitive, poor spellers and have odd eating habits. They are less prone to schizophrenia, and are happy to be different. Eccentricity can be learnt to some extent, and there appear to be health benefits from leading an eccentric lifestyle.
