A decade from yesterday, November 22nd, Kanye West came out with what is arguably his magnum opus ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.’ 

The 2010 album illustrates Kanye’s dark and gritty life under the Hollywood spotlight at that time, coinciding with the iconic interruption of Taylor Swift’s acceptance at the MTV awards with the classic ‘I’mma let you finish.”

Franciscan priests request Pope Francis’ dismissal of paedophile case

Nov 23 2020 Share

The Conventual Franciscans Order of Rome has appealed for the dismissal of the paedophile case which convicted Maltese priest Fr Donald Bellizzi with sexually abusing a 13-year-old boy.

Bellizzi is currently serving a three-year prison sentence for sexually abusing a teenage boy who would attend a vocational group with the scope of pursuing priesthood.

Beyond prison time, Fr Belizzi cannot be defrocked by the Archbishop since the diocese does not hold responsibility over Franciscan friars.

Reports have also emerged that the Oxford vaccine has been found to be 70% protective of the coronavirus, which albeit being much less effective than the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, is much cheaper and much easier to store.
