I was reading about the selling of a wedding chapel in Vegas for 12 million dollars. Who gets married in Vegas and at a place called “A Little White Chapel”? Famous people do and did tie the knot there in its 68 years of weddings. I was surprised by the first couple on the list of notables. The reason was that couple stayed together 50 years and were Hollywood A-Listers.

The title of this post is the conversion of 10-15-20-25-30 Celsius to Fahrenheit. It hit 20 degrees Celsius today which is 68 degrees Fahrenheit. It was wonderful! As you can see 5 degrees of Celsius is equal to 9 degrees of Fahrenheit. Just remember that 10 C is 50 F and conversions might go easier.

Has anyone heard about the causes?
Added information from article.
Notre Dame – which means ‘Our Lady’ – was build in 1160 and completed by 1260, and has been modified on a number of occasions throughout the century.
A spokesperson for the cathedral said the blaze was first reported at 5.50pm (GMT) and the building was evacuated soon after.
Officials in Paris said the fire could be linked to restoration works as the peak of the church is currently undergoing a 6 million-euro ($6.8 million) renovation project.

I find it endlessly entertaining how Trump is one big Hypocrisy Detector. I have seen him time and time again make people eat their words. These are some of his greatest hits.
I think Trump has the ability to do this because culturally he is like a Democrat. The Democrats are going in a sense after one of their own. They would let most of Trump’s things pass if he had a D after his name but since he doesn’t they show their double standards.

There are two or three great anecdotes in this clip. I had no idea that Chris Mitchum, the son of Robert Mitchum, was black balled in Hollywood. He couldn’t get a job in the States.
