Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Portions of this article writen with AI assistance. A solid majority of Americans still identify as Christian, but the numbers are shrinking. In March of this year, the Gallup survey company published the results of an ongoing survey of Americans' religious preferences over the years. The data indicates that back in 1956, an overwhelming majority of 96% of adults identified as Christian. This percentage comes from the survey conducted annually between 1948 and 2023. The number remained in the high 80s percentile through 2001.

By Darrell Owens — I was split on whether gun deaths or traffic deaths are the biggest death cults in the United States, but I’ve decided it goes to cars. However neutered gun control is, it’s not a popular mandate in polling but rather a quirk in effective lobbying. Car deaths and automobile manufacturer deregulation are a completely different level of insanity. Unfortunately, car centrism is the popular mandate in that most Americans really don’t care about people being killed by cars, even if the victims are their own family members, and are seemingly resistant to taking the necessary systemic steps to save lives.

Editor's Note: This article was originally published on February 10, 2022. It has since been updated. Faced with the reality of being slaves in a foreign land, Igbo people chose death as they walked into the ocean and drowned while still chained to each other. It was one of the first documented acts of rebellion from the people of Africa against white slave traders. It was the year 1803 and 75 West Africans, with a majority of them being Igbo, were sold for $100 each to John Couper and Thomas Spalding. Originating from Nigeria, the Igbo people were renowned for their industriousness, independence, and pride in their work. John Couper and Thomas Spalding "bought" the Igbo people with the intention of taking them to work on plantations in St. Simons Island, Georgia, in the U.S. They were packed onto a slave ship but as the ship neared Georgia, Igbo people rebelled and took over the ship, killing the captain and some of the crew. The ship ran aground in Dunbar Creek, off St. Simons Island, according to Mother Jones.

Two immigrants from south of the border told the City Council Monday they were harassed when using hotel vouchers for shelter in Denver. Speaking through an interpreter, Leivy Ortega and Henry Aguilar said they received vouchers for hotel stays from an unnamed non-profit. But they had problems using the vouchers, they said. Ortega said she came to Denver from Connecticut and lived in her car for 15 days. She received a three-day hotel voucher, she said, but hotel staff initially would not honor it. She did not name the hotel. She said staff finally looked at her paperwork and gave her a room, but they wanted to charge her. for it. She said they initially weren’t going to allow her to stay because she has a service animal.
