I can’t listen to OliverAnthony‘s “Rich Men North of Richmond” without getting chills. It’s raw, it’s true, & it’s touching the hearts of men & women across this great nation.

This song is called "Rich Men North of Richmond." It has been viewed MILLIONS of times.
The artist's name is Oliver Anthony. I just got off the phone with him.

In the new Texas law, porn site users must be asked to provide digital identification; government-issued identification; or, public or private transactional data (mortgage, pay stub, etc.) to prove that they are adults and not minors.
The law will also require porn and adult websites to display the following warnings:
“Pornography is potentially biologically addictive, is proven to harm human brain development, desensitizes brain reward circuits, increases conditioned responses, and weakens brain function.”
“Exposure to this content is associated with low self-esteem and body image, eating disorders, impaired brain development, and other emotional and mental illnesses.”
“Pornography increases the demand for prostitution, child exploitation, and child pornography.”
Applicable websites will also have to list the phone number for the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 1-800-662-HELP (4357)
We offered up a link earlier on our Facebook page to a reliable site explaining where you can donate to get people in Hawaii help that they need.. that is being shared here ..
During a press conference: Police chief on Lahaina fire recovery operation: “We’ve got an area we have to contain that is at least five square miles and it is full of our loved ones.”. .
None of the 89 dead in the Lahaina fire has been initially identifiable by their remains. “The remains fall apart.” Authorities are using DNA to make identifications.
“There wasn’t really an evacuation notice for us,” Millington said. The real warning, he said, came from the “huge plume of black smoke” in the sky over Lahaina.
Millington and his roommates had seen enough. They fled as wildfires began to scorch large swaths of the Hawaiian island of Maui, killing at least 89 people and destroying Millington’s home among hundreds of other structures.
The cell phone alert “was useless,” said Millington, who owns a hot sauce company in the historic town. “We have tsunami warnings that I think should have been utilized… So many of us … felt like we had absolutely no warning.”
In fact, the state’s vaunted integrated outdoor siren warning system – the largest in the world, with about 400 alarms – was not activated during the fires, according to Hawaii Emergency Management Agency spokesperson Adam Weintraub.
Political earthquake Friday.. ? Or just a small shake..
U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday said the federal prosecutor who has filed criminal charges against President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, would get additional authority to investigate whether the son engaged in improper business dealings.
Garland’s elevation of prosecutor David Weiss to special counsel comes as Republicans in Congress threaten an impeachment inquiry into unproven claims that Biden benefited from his son’s business ventures.
Right now cases globally rise 80%.. but deaths currently fall 57%..
The WHO declared in May that Covid is no longer a global health emergency, but has warned that the virus will continue to circulate and mutate, causing occasional spikes in infections, hospitalisations and deaths.
In its weekly update, the UN agency said that nations reported nearly 1.5 million new cases from July 10 to August 6, an 80 percent increase compared to the previous 28 days.
However the number of deaths fell by 57 percent to 2,500.
The WHO warned that the reported number of cases and deaths do not reflect the true numbers, in part because countries carry out far less testing and monitoring than during earlier stages of the pandemic.
Many of the new cases came in the Western Pacific region, which saw infections jump by 137 percent, the WHO said.
Dr Mitesh Patel, from Imperial College London, said: “We’re talking about a fifth force because we can’t necessarily explain the behaviour [in these experiments] with the four we know about.”
The data comes from experiments at the Fermilab US particle accelerator facility, which explored how subatomic particles called muons – similar to electrons but about 200 times heavier – move in a magnetic field.
Patel says the muons behave a bit like a child’s spinning top, in rotating around the axis of the magnetic field. However, as the muons move, they wobble. The frequency of that wobble can be predicted by the standard model.
Okay.. are we good with this? Are we comfortable with this?
Are we fine and dandy with AI technology reporting on local news sports and weather ?
This is not testing ground anymore it’s happening. We are about to be on a collision with destiny .. what will the ole yellow gum shoes think? The beat reporters that found truth?
But who killed journalism? AI technology? Or maybe lousy journalism killed journalism.
Poor reporting. Poor quality. 7th grade writing that is no better now than kindergarten.
If reporters are mad at AI, they need to find a mirror and take a good look..
