Clash City Rocker's JournalThe Battle Over Dyslexia
Interesting article. It starts by suggesting that some people in the UK think dyslexia may not exist, but the real point seems to be that it is less likely to be diagnosed in families with lower incomes, thus creating a haves vs. have-nots system for children who struggle to learn how to read.

Most people will know Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House from the TV show House. Some of us remember him from earlier British shows like Jeeves and Wooster and Blackadder. What you might not know is that, whenever he was shown on House playing the piano or guitar, that was really him.
In 2011, Hugh Laurie recorded a love letter to New Orleans called Let Them Talk. The album featured contributions from Alan Tussaint (seen here), Irma Thomas and Dr. John. Just do yourself a favor, buy the whole album. This is the first cut and my personal favorite.
