Where the Sun Meets the Earth. Runner-Up in History Would’ve Burned This Page Challenge.
The red Nebraska sun had dipped down to kiss the tops of the corn stalk sentinels, silhouetting them against the burnt orange sky as they marched off to the horizon. Howard slowly meandered back to the farm house, a rivulet of sweat slipped down his neck under the collar of his work shirt and his muscles ached from a long day of working the fields with his brother. As he neared the rickety old porch he spotted his sister bent over a bucket shucking fresh picked ears of corn. A soft breeze floated past, carrying the sound of Lorna Belle’s gentle voice.

What's In Your House
There were most likely different photo's that would have been more appropriate for this article. However, my splash one (although it was good), and my rainbow one (although it was good), were getting a bit old, and I have used it for so many articles, it was time for a change. So this is the rose bush in my back yard. It is indeed also very pretty indeed.

Two Wild Rides (Disclaimer: All dialog in the following is embellishment of the author. In the early Jet Age, cockpit voice recorders were not yet required on commercial aircraft. I have done my best to provide accurate portrayals based on standard procedures.)

Gold Frames...
March 12th, 1915... My Dear Beth, I know that you were born a month ago, and named for your mother, my dearest Bess. She tells me that she kissed my gold-framed photograph each night, now on your behalf as well as her own, until you are old enough to do it yourself. I pray that the Great War will be over before then, or that I will have had leave enough to come home so you both can kiss me in person, before that time.

Trump and Netanyahu Are Breaking the Bond Between American Jews and Israel
Israeli Elections & The public's demand: Even though Israel gained as many seats as its biggest significant adversary, the results of the April 9 election have been seen as a win for the status quo. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is best positioned to form a new administration alongside the Likud party that he leads. Most certainly, Netanyahu will be able to maintain his position of authority. The public's demand for familiarity and regularity is the reason behind this.

The Lion of Mysore and the Pioneer of Rocket Warfare
Hyder Ali was not just a king; he was a phenomenon. Rising from the humble ranks of an illiterate soldier to become the de facto ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore, he became one of the most formidable challenges the British East India Company ever faced on Indian soil. While history often remembers his son, Tipu Sultan, for his fierce resistance, it was Hyder Ali who laid the strategic, economic, and technological foundations that made Mysore a superpower of the 18th century.

Every Gold Ring on Earth Started in Outer Space. AI-Generated.
Someone at work said something the other day about gold just being a metal that comes out of the ground. And that got me wondering. I had heard the story before and thought I would look it up again.
