    Shut In Movie Review

    0
    By Major Dan on February 15, 2022 Cinema & TV, February 10

    A Brief History On February 10, 2022, we took advantage of the on-line (YouTube) free release of a new film, Shut In, a low budget but highly watchable and entertaining horror film.  A production of The Daily Wire, a conservative media operation, the film does NOT burden you with any conservative social engineering or subtle messages, and merely entertains the viewer.  Unlike much of “woke” Hollywood output, Shut In leaves politics and social issues up to the viewer and does not try to sell any particular philosophy. Digging Deeper Yes, we liked the movie!  We are in good company, as…

    By Major Dan on February 10, 2019 February 10, Politics

    A Brief History On February 10, 1967, the United States adopted the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, a new national law that deals with the succession to the Presidency of the United States, and a topic of recent debate during the Trump Administration.  Starting with the 23rd Amendment adopted in June of 1960, there have been a total of 5 new Amendments adopted during this author’s lifetime, and one Amendment that is glaringly absent by its lack of ratification by the States Digging Deeper The United States Constitution was adopted in 1789, a magnificent historical document that created a nation…

    February 10, 1355: Another Idiotic Riot!

    0
    By Major Dan on February 10, 2018 Crime, February 10

    A Brief History On February 10, 1355, Oxford, England, the site of the ultra-prestigious University of Oxford, was the scene of a considerable riot that cost the lives of 63 student/scholars and at least 30 townsfolk. This so-called St. Scholastica Day Riot started in a tavern and ended when the scholars were finally routed by the townies. (History and Headlines currently has 7 articles about riots and will certainly be adding more.) Digging Deeper The University of Oxford was founded around 1096, with no specific founding date. It is the oldest university or college in the English-speaking world and is…

    By Major Dan on February 10, 2017 February 10

    A Brief History On February 10, 1962, the United States and the Soviet Union exchanged spies that had been captured by each country at the Glienicke bridge over the Havel River in Berlin, later known by a more romantic sounding name, “The Bridge of Spies.” Digging Deeper Perhaps the most famous American spy captured by the enemy since the Revolutionary War, Francis Gary Powers was a pilot for the CIA flying the top secret U-2 spy plane over the Soviet Union when he was shot down and arrested for espionage.  The U-2 spy plane is a jet powered extremely high…
