Honestly, no idea where you get your motivation for the gym on a Friday. In terms of films, I watched Groundhog Day recently (again). Which is described as a romcom. However, I have always been fascinated by some mathematics contained within. How many days does Bill Murray experience groundhog day?

Sad to read about the death of US civil rights leader Jesse Jackson age 84.
I was lucky enough to visit Atlanta, Georgia for a work event couple years back, and through the story of Martin Luther King Jr, learnt about the impact of Red Jackson.

Quiz: The RSA was founded 1754. Who was monarch then?

Sad to read about the death of actor Robert Duvall aged 95.
I actually first came across him Apocalypse Now (after reading Conrad's Heart of Darkness) with his iconic line:
"I love the smell of napalm in the morning".
However I've never watched him in The Godfather. Do I need to go and watch?
