Wickipedia: "Little Martha" was the only Allman Brothers Band track written solely by group leader and partial namesake Duane Allman. The song first appeared as the final studio track on the Allman Brothers Band's fourth album, Eat a Peach, released in 1972. The track was recorded in October 1971, a few weeks before Duane Allman's death in a motorcycle accident.

An American rock and roll singer is invited to a cultural festival in East Germany in order to distract from a plot to destroy NATO submarines, but he accidentally becomes involved in a resistance plot to rescue an imprisoned scientist.

Keir Starmer has condemned what he has called "far-right thuggery" in the form of violent demonstrations. Speaking to reporters at Downing Street just now, the prime minister said those involved will feel the "full force of the law". "You will regret taking part in this," he told those involved in the unrest. "There is no justification for taking this action." He said people in this country "have a right to be safe" and yet we've seen "Muslim communities targeted... Nazi salutes in the street". "I won't shy away from calling it what it is - far-right thuggery," Starmer said.

Daily Readings from the USCCB“Rabbi, when did you get here?” Jesus answered them and said, “Amen, amen, I say to you, you are looking for me not because you saw signs but because you ate the loaves and were filled. Do not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you.” John 6:25–27The day before, Jesus fed the crowds at the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fish. The next day, the people were hungry again, so they went looking for Jesus thinking that He...

An air unit formed in the days when pilots were considered knights and gentlemanly combat ruled the sky has been stripped of its historical nickname after fears it could be offensive to Muslim communities. The Royal Air Force’s 14 Squadron was forced to drop the “Crusader” title after an official complaint was filed against the unit. According to a news report, a single complaint sparked a campaign against the nickname. Aviators and crewmen were told to remove all instances of the name around their hangars. “We have to take down every mention of Crusaders from our base,” one aviator told...

VIDEONo Tax On Tips is a BRILLIANT idea proposed by President Trump. And it is something the Democrats fear will cost them votes in November. That is why a know-it-all TikToker Weirdo is badmouthing it as a "conspiracy theory." This week I plan to go to IHOP for their their All You Can Eat $5 pancake deal and leave a note on my receipt that says "Vote For Trump For NO Taxes On Tips!"

Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that former President Donald Trump is “juvenile” for criticizing Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA). Christie said, “You can’t imagine anyone who knows anything about politics would say, ‘Here’s an idea. Go and question whether or not Kamala Harris is really black or not.’ This is what happens, and this is how you can tell that this race is changing because what happens is when Donald Trump is ahead, and he feels like he’s comfortably ahead, he is willing to go with conventional, smart political advice. As soon as he thinks...

On July 31, I met with Justice Neil Gorsuch in his chambers at the Supreme Court for a wide-ranging interview about his new book, “Over Ruled: The Human Toll of Too Much Law.” His co-author, Janie Nitze, a former clerk of his, was present for the interview as well. I didn’t get to ask every question I wanted to, but our conversation covered a lot of ground, including Gorsuch’s indictment of the regulatory state, his approach to evaluating agency expertise, the problem of mass incarceration and coercive plea bargaining, his jurisprudence holding the United States accountable for its obligations to...

Rumble video by George Webb discussing the Whelan prisoner exchange and connecting the dot to what it means in this pre-election season.

I walk my dogs around my town twice a day. I’ve always known it was a 96% white and 99% liberal town. It’s the kind of California town with yoga studios and health food stores. The rules are very strict. My brother, who is building a house here, had to go to court three times to fight for a gas stove in his new house. It’s the kind of place that has those lawn signs, you know: I’ve lived here for about a year. I am ordinarily a city girl, but there are reasons for me to be here right...

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced Sunday that soldiers had uncovered a massive smuggling tunnel underneath the border between Gaza and Egypt in the area of Rafah — where the U.S. had cautioned Israel not to go. _____________ In a statement, the IDF and the Israel Security Agency (ISA, or Shin Bet, or Shabak) said: Recently, IDF troops have been working to locate and destroy underground tunnel routes in the Philadelphi area, and so far, the troops have located and destroyed dozens of routes. At the beginning of last week, in one of the operations to locate underground tunnel routes...

Former California Senate Majority Leader Gloria Romero believes Kamala Harris 'deceived the voters' and 'targeted' Black men on 'Maria Bartiromo's Wall Street.' She should be interviewed by all the liberal media but there’s not a chance in the world that’s happening. https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6359832131112

Democratic strategist Donna Brazile said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that former President Donald Trump’s comments on Vice President Kamala Harris’ race showed he wanted to be the “arbiter of who is an American.” Host George Stephanopoulos said, “It’s also clear, Donna Brazile, that the Trump team is not going to back away from questioning the vice president’s racial identity.” Brazile said, “Look. I recognize, George, that the playbook of the late ’60s and the ’70s and even not too far ago in 2011, when then Barack Obama, the president of the United States, they questioned his birth, his birth...

The US and UK issued warnings Saturday to their nationals to immediately leave Lebanon amid fears of a wider escalation with Israel. The US Embassy in Beirut said some flights by several airlines have been canceled but “commercial transportation options to leave Lebanon remain available.” “We encourage those who wish to depart Lebanon to book any ticket available to them, even if that flight does not depart immediately or does not follow their first-choice route. US citizens who lack funds to return to the United States may contact the embassy for financial assistance via repatriation loans,” it said in a...

Are you a 501 guy, or more of a 505? We're here to help you find out. How does one even know? It’s becoming more and more difficult to keep track of what type of fit each number corresponds with, even for the most denim-minded among us.

I couldn’t get through this article, and I’ve read some crazy stuff. You must read both sides, even when your opposition has become unspooled. But this is downright low for Politico to publish this after an assassination attempt. The publication posted that Trump is like Mussolini in using such attacks for political gain: -- snip -- It’s never us that’s the problem. It’s astounding that after the Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, there was a rush from liberals, who have been fanning the flames for years, that we needed to tone down the rhetoric. No, it’s...

‘He wouldn’t have needed a license if it were an iguana,” Justice Neil Gorsuch says. That sounds like a punch line, but “he” in this story is Marty Hahne, a Missouri magician. “It,” the non-iguana, is Mr. Hahne’s live rabbit. As a magical prop, the bunny is a classic, and probably more easygoing than a big lizard would be about getting yanked out of a hat for shrieking children. Justice Gorsuch, seated at a coffee table in his Supreme Court chambers, is narrating an anecdote from his book that goes on sale Tuesday, “Over Ruled: The Human Toll of Too...

As mentioned in my recent post from July 20, there are many data points gradually accumulating as to the lack of progress toward the so-called “green” economy. It has long been clear to people who think about it that the energy transition to “net zero” is a fantasy that will not occur. But the question remains of exactly how the mania will come to an end. Will the net zero fantasies of the climate cultists proceed at full speed until they crash into a wall of physical reality (e.g., blackouts)? Or instead will these fantasies gradually retreat as governments respond...

When people think of the US immigration crisis, the southern border normally comes to mind, but as it turns out the fastest way to NYC is to enter the country along New York's border with Canada. A difficult journey many asylum seekers are now making more often...
