Today is the 100th anniversary of the second worst President of all time. What would be an appropriate way to celebrate ?

The struggle to prove the majestic bird still exists has obsessed believers and exasperated doubters for a century. Now photographer Bobby Harrison is racing to document the species once and for all before the government declares it extinct The bird has many names, often divinely inspired: the Lord God Bird, the Lazarus Bird, the Ghost Bird, the Grail Bird. Bobby Harrison is a religious man, but he doesn’t like any of them. He prefers to call it what it is: an ivory-billed woodpecker. “Well,” he says with a shrug, “it is just a bird, after all.” That might seem like...

Defeating Russian President Vladimir Putin in Ukraine is the "best deterrence" for keeping Chinese President Xi Jinping out of Taiwan, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Michael McCaul, who traveled to Taiwan this weekend, said in an interview that aired Sunday. "I've talked to the prime ministers and the presidents of Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, and what's happening in Ukraine will determine what happens in Taiwan and the Pacific," the Texas Republican said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "I believe the best deterrence to Chairman Xi is a failure for Putin in Ukraine." Weapons for Taiwan are also necessary to...

BURBANK, CA—With Lightyear and its cartoon lesbian romance flopping at the box office, sources say Disney has decided to quietly pull the plug on its upcoming movie Brokeback Woody. "Little Bo Peep was about to find out what Woody and Pete the Prospector were really up to when they were off with the 'Roundup Gang'," said actor Chris Evans. "Such a shame. One day all the backward bigoted dinosaurs in America will die off, and our country will finally be ready for kids' cartoons with gratuitous gay toy-cowboy sex." Disney had planned to roll out Brokeback Woody in early 2023,...

A “one-of-a-kind” house has hit the real estate market in Illinois for $1.17 million. While some might marvel at its elegant finishes and custom mill-work, one popular social media page is taking aim at one specific bedroom and asking the question everyone is thinking: Is that a...tree?

A man was arrested Tuesday after being caught on surveillance video trashing an Asian-owned convenience store in Charlotte, North Carolina and yelling racial slurs at the owners. Xavier Rashee Woody-Silas, 24, was arrested on six charges including damage to personal property, robbery with a dangerous weapon, communicating threats, misdemeanor larceny, and disorderly conduct, according to WBTV.

Real-life ‘Toy Story’ played out at a NH Home Depot: Woody finds he way home, with a lot of help A Home Depot in New Hampshire, on Tuesday, was the scene of a real-life “Toy Story.” That’s “Toy Story” - as in the beloved critically acclaimed Pixar franchise, where after experiencing a series of heart-stopping adventures, lost “anthropomorphic toys” are reunited with their owners. According to a report by WBZ-TV, the story began last week, when a Home Depot employee found a “Woody” doll that had been left on the parking lot pavement - but rather than tossing the toy,...

I’ve seen the evidence with respect to the Dominion machines and the software they use, and how they ran it through Barcelona in Spain, where they manipulated...

LOS ANGELES (AFP) - Harvey Weinstein's lawyers are calling on a US judge to dismiss a lawsuit from actress Ashley Judd -- who accuses the disgraced mogul of torpedoing her career -- on the grounds that she had made a sexual "deal" with him.

I’m a very private person and not at all interested in public attention. But, given the incredibly inaccurate and misleading attacks on my father, Woody Allen, I feel that I can no longer stay silent as he continues to be condemned for a crime he did not commit. I was present for everything that transpired in our house before, during, and after the alleged event. Now that the public hysteria of earlier this year has died down a little and I have some hope that the truth can get a fair hearing, I want to share my story.

Linwood Kaine, the youngest son of Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., was charged in St. Paul, Minn., Friday for crimes police say he committed two and a half months ago at a Trump rally.The 24-year-old man was charged with concealing identity in a public space, fleeing on foot and obstructing the legal process by interfering with a peace officer.

The youngest son of U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 running mate, was one of six people arrested Saturday after counter-protesters disrupted a rally in support of President Donald Trump at the Minnesota State Capitol. Linwood Michael Kaine, 24, and four others were arrested on suspicion of second-degree riot after the “March 4 Trump” rally in St. Paul; a sixth person was cited for disorderly conduct. Counter-protesters clashed with Trump supporters in the Capitol rotunda after they disrupted the proceedings with air horns, whistles and chants. At one point, someone set off a smoke bomb. Linwood Kaine, a Minneapolis...

Organised groups that used to steal manhole covers from streets or pipes and other metal from construction sites have started to steal wood in some Czech regions after the introduction of stricter rules for buying out scrap metals, weekly Tyden writes in its issue out on Monday. The "tree thieves" are not only individuals who use the wood themselves for heating, but also gangs that sell the wood to others. In 2015, the Environment Ministry banned scrapyard operators to pay for metals in cash. Moreover, the prices of metals have dropped considerably due to their surplus in Europe. As a...

I was chagrined, but not entirely surprised, when I read Woody Allen’s recent ruminations on ultimate things. To state it bluntly, Woody could not be any bleaker in regard to the issue of meaning in the universe. We live, he said, in a godless and purposeless world. The earth came into existence through mere chance and one day it, along with every work of art and cultural accomplishment, will be incinerated. The universe as a whole will expand and cool until there is nothing left but the void. Every hundred years or so, he continued, a coterie of human beings...

Early voting is underway. We’ve got a GOP leadership in Washington looking to sell us out on amnesty and ObamaCare. In Raleigh, we have a state party leadership reportedly looking to toss out opposition to toll roads and ObamaCare, and water down the official stance on amnesty. You can grumble all you want. But the only way to send a message to these people is at the polling place. You’ve got the opportunity, from now until May 6, to do a little RINO-hunting.

Mia Farrow and Ronan Farrow didn't hold back their disdain for Woody Allen on Twitter Sunday evening. The mother and son tweeted out against the tribute to the director at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards. "Time to grab some ice cream & switch over to #GIRLS," Mia tweeted when Allen's tribute began to start. Diane Keaton accepted the Cecil. B. DeMille Award on behalf of the Hollywood heavyweight—extolling the director's work with actresses, dropping a few curse words and even singing during her monologue. But Ronan's tweet made it clear that he wouldn't be offering any tributes at his house....

Who doesn't love Woody!

Original title: Matthews: Weiner in Trouble Because His Behavior Offends ‘Culturally Backward’ Christian Conservatives ---------------------- So in this argument, is Weiner the one who is "culturally forward" or is it the "enlightened progressives" in general?

The word sycophant (A servile self-seeker who attempts to win favor by flattering influential people.) has, for the first time in history, become part of everyday conversation since the election of President Obama. You might legitimately ask why or how did this fairly obscure word become so prominent in our language. The answer lies in the blatant and continuous servile fawning over Obama by our Main Stream Media and their reliance on the Joseph Goebbels school of propaganda: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be...
