πͺπΊ On 29 June 1985, European leaders chose a symbol that would stand the test of time.
Twelve golden stars in a circle.
A powerful symbol of who we are and what we stand for: unity and peace, democracy and solidarity.
Today, we celebrate 40 years of our common flag.
So, watching the fantastic opening of the Olympics in Paris , I could not...not reflect on the importance and impact of the element of our collective athletic competition which must celebrate excellence and diversity Should we not discuss "different" abilities vs "dis" abilities.

So funny. I love Scotland. My mother was a Campbell. Need to go back.
During a U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland, Bono asked the audience for total quiet.
Then in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands. Once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."
From the front of the crowd, a broad Scottish accent pierced the quiet: "Well f#ckin' stop doin' it then ya evil b#stard!"
