Also, another debate on whether or not Tucker Carlson's comments were "antisemitic."Michael Foster's been spotlighting doctrinal drift in the PCA and TGC lurches to the Right on Transgenderism.

What Did Charlie Kirk ACTUALLY Say?
The mainstream media’s vendetta against Charlie Kirk isn’t about truth, it is about control. Kirk built his name by taking on the left’s sacred cows, the line between meritocracy and DEI, the political manipulation of open borders, and the morality of the hyper trend of gender ideology. Essentially in defense of the American family and the sanity and success of those traditional values. His reward? A relentless globalist mockingbird media campaign to smear him as a bigot. Something he absolutely wasn't. Dropping hit pieces that cherry pick quotes or outright lie to inflam...

Was Charlie Kirk a Christian Martyr? Catholic? Killed by Israel?
Jon addresses controversies surrounding Charlie Kirk’s assassination, examining three questions: Was Kirk a Christian or political martyr? Were Israel or Jewish interests involved? Was he converting to Roman Catholicism? Kirk is framed as a political martyr, targeted for conservative stances on gender, marriage, and crime, increasingly tied to his evangelical faith post-2020. Evidence suggests the shooter, Tyler Robinson, acted on leftist ideologies, not foreign conspiracies, with no professional marksman traits.

I have often referred to the coaching profession as a fraternity or brotherhood, and it is. However, it is also a highly competitive and sometimes ego-driven profession as well. Because of that nearly everyone who has spent any time in coaching likely has members of the fraternity whom he/she dislikes. Likewise, those of us who have spent time in the coaching ranks are likely to have coaches who dislike us. It is just a fact of life in coaching. Except, it seems, for Kirk Lehman.

Kirk breaks down the two most fundamental aspects of music: rhythm and harmony. There's the Y-axis, harmony, which tells us which frequencies we're hearing in which combinations.

Much like most music, it's a mix of math and magic that takes many moons to master.REFERENCED/DISCUSSED:"I Will Always Love You" by Dolly Parton, performed by Whitney Houston"Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin from Led Zeppelin IV, 1971The Pentatonix cover of "Havana" from Top Pop, Vol. 1"Stayin' Alive" by...
