I think it is great that they have named an alley after classic stars that had iconic scenes filmed there. It was known unofficially as Hall's Alley in memory of Hall's Grocery, part of early Hollywood. So, think of the stars and the corner store. www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_PC...

This is an anti-drowning post. We don't need people drowning or suffering from near-drowning. This is not just about swimming lessons. It's safer water transport, better rescue response, supervision, etc. Floods get attention, but so should the hundreds of thousands that drown from other things.

An awful thing. RIP. www.nma.gov.au/defining-mom...
