Look for new material from ABBA later this summer. Variety reports they originally prepared two tracks, "I Still Have Faith In You" and "Don't Shut Me Down," for a "Virtual ABBA show," which was supposed to be broadcast on the BBC at the end of last year. But shortly before airing, the group said they were putting it off until later this year, and the release of the songs were put on hold as well. Now, BENNY ANDERSSON tells a fan site that they might possibly record a third song as well, which will be out when the show airs.
You knew this was coming. After that incident during the NFC title game this past Sunday, in which Saints QB Drew Brees tossed a pass to Tommylee Lewis, but was tackled by the Rams' Nickell Robey-Coleman well before the arrival of the ball, eye doctors in at least two states have issued an invitation to NFL referees to have their eyes checked.
Louisiana Family Eyecare in Covington, Louisiana, says it will give free eye exams to league officials before next season, and a second vision center in College Station, Texas, says they will offer free exams for NFL referees as well.A new survey from Salary.com reports all those jobs handled by stay-at-home moms would run around 96 hours a week and should add up to $162,581. The folks from the website added up salaries which would be given to bookkeepers, tailors, public school teachers, dietitians, coaches, logistics analysts and lots of others.
That final figure has gone up over the past couple of years, from $143,102 in 2016 and $157,705 in 2017.
The website says their research is conducted "to honor all the moms out there who work their hardest day-in and day-out," and adds, "We would like to recognize both professional and stay-at-home moms on their unwavering dedication to their families and other responsibilities." -
