I’d like a phone line of my own. (NOT … an own phone line.) 2. Use or rather to correct yourself. She’s German – or rather, Austrian. (NOT She’s German – or better, Austrian.)

Although politicians have been chosen to represent a certain people, media has found a way to help sway the beliefs of their followers, now in a more explicit fashion

collapses, and a 10-year-old saves a bus full of schoolkids. Just after lunch on oct. 3, Dawn Little found a message on her office answering-machine. It was from Ken Russell, principal of her kids' school. "Call as soon as you can," Russel told her. "I want to tell you something good that Larry has done." Little was still unprepared for Russell's report: Larry had singlehandedly stopped a runaway school bus and very possibly saved the lives of 19 children. "l've never, never in my life had
