Education Secretary Betsy DeVos stood firm on her proposal to cut funds for the Special Olympics on Wednesday, arguing that the organization doesn't need federal backing because it can successfully raise private contributions."The Special Olympics is not a federal program. It's a private organization. I love its work, and I have personally supported its mission. Because of its important work, it is able to raise more than 0 million every year," DeVos said in a statement."There are dozens of worthy nonprofits that support students and adults with disabilities that don't get a dime of federal grant money. But given our current budget realities, the federal government cannot fund every worthy program, particularly ones that enjoy robust support from private donations," she added.DeVos, one of the wealthier members of Trump's Cabinet, donated some of her salary last year to the group.Her statement followed an outpouring of criticism over her proposal to cut 12 percent from the department's budget -- the third year in a row she has called for eliminating funding for Special Olympic events at schools.Lawmakers have rejected DeVos' previous proposals, appropriating 1191

Climbing is a sport that's getting more and more popular. For the first time next year, it’ll be an Olympic sport. Additionally, a documentary featuring professional rock climber Alex Honnold took the Oscar win at this year’s Academy Awards!After filming climbers for two decades, filmmaker Peter Mortimer is happy to see more people taking notice. As amazing as it is to see the shots he captures, what may be more breathtaking is what you don’t see: the work behind the scenes. It’s all to bring the world of climbing out of the wilderness and onto the big screen “There's no stadium, there's no arena and nobody really knows what they're doing,” Mortimer says. Mortimer is a climber and the co-founder of Sender Films, the company that produced “The Dawn Wall.” Mortimer and his team followed two men as they attempted to climb a 3,000-foot rock face in Yosemite National Park. The film captured the climbers’ journey from hanging from the wall to even sleeping on the wall. “We knew if they did it, we had to be there,” Mortimer says. “But we also said, for seven years really, were like this is probably never going to happen, but it's worth the risk.” It took the climbers seven years to finally make it. Mortimer and his team were there to capture the moment. Then, the film received more awards than Mortimer ever imagined. One film led to another, and as the climbing industry grew, so did Sender Films. The company has produced more than 40 hours of climbing films, winning two Emmys and putting on a film tour with more than 400 shows around the world. “I thought rock climbing was something that was just a little a little hobby at the time, and I’m just still surprised what it's become,” says Zachary Barr, a director with Sender Films. However, there have been challenges. “I've seen so many of my, you know, really close friends die in the mountains,” Mortimer says. But the filmmaker says he's approached this journey in film, as he would a climb. “No one's climbed that like. That could be an amazing thing, that the path doesn't really exist,” he says. 2085

"Big Bird helped me find my purpose."Through his two characters, Spinney gained huge fame that brought international tours, books, record albums, movie roles, and visits to the White House."Caroll was an artistic genius whose kind and loving view of the world helped shape and define Sesame Street from its earliest days in 1969 through five decades, and his legacy here at Sesame Workshop and in the cultural firmament will be unending," the Sesame Workshop said. 1196
