🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸 On April 7, 2003, Captain Kim Campbell-callsign 'Killer Chick'—was piloting her A-10 Warthog over Iraq when disaster struck. U.S. ground forces were pinned at a key bridge in North Baghdad, blocked by enemy fighters. Campbell was tasked with close air support, one of aviation's riskiest missions. She dove...

Mary Anne MacLeod was born on May 10, 1912, in the village of Tong on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland. She was the youngest of ten children in a large family. She grew up in a simple home where Gaelic was spoken and life was modest. In 1930, when she was still a teenager, Mary Anne decided to leave Scotland to start a new life. On May 2, she left Glasgow on a ship called the RMS Transylvania. After several days at sea, she arrived in New York City on May 11, just one day after her 18th birthday. Immigration records show she worked as a domestic worker when she came to the United States. She also arrived with only $50 in her pocket. Life in America slowly changed for her. She later met Fred Trump, a businessman from New York. They fell in love and got married on January 11, 1936. Together, they built a family and had five children: Maryanne, Fred Jr., Elizabeth, Donald, and Robert. Her son Donald Trump later became one of the most well-known political figures in the United States and served as the 45th and 47th President. Mary Anne MacLeod’s life story is often remembered as a journey from a small Scottish village to a new life in America. It shows how she left behind a quiet rural childhood and built a family that later became widely known around the world through business and politics and public life over many decades. 🙏❤️🌹🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

TRENDING: “Who is your dad, how did you get this Job?” — Zenith Bank allegedly asked a Tiktoker, before firing her for filming office VLOG. GRWM Becca was first queried in 2022 after joking about a whopping ₦10,000 salary increment, a joke that, according to her, management did not “get”. She was summoned before the Disciplinary Committee at the Head Office, where she was asked who her parents were and how she got the job. She told the that her father is a pastor and that she got the job by applying like everyone else. As a new employee and first-time offender, she appealed to this, and was subsequently pardoned. Months later, the company substantially increased salaries, which Becca believes happened, at least in part, because of the attention her video brought to the issue. As her social media following grew between 2024 and 2025, she received more warnings from management over the extensive workplace exposure in her videos. Becca initially didn’t understand the concern because she believed she was doing what everyone else was doing , dance. However, she eventually understood the company’s position and toned it down. In April, she posted a full office vlog, which immediately earned her another query and a fresh summons before the Disciplinary Committee. This time, a full panel. She was formally accused of inappropriately exposing the workplace in her content. She finally got the message, took down all the videos, stopped posting content about or showing the workplace, adhered to the guidelines, and limited her GRWM videos to her bedroom. Yet, on Thursday, July 23, 2026, she filmed her final GRWM. Upon arriving at work, her Branch Manager calmly broke the news: she had been asked to tender her resignation, effective immediately. Becca paused to catch her breath, then made her way downstairs to type what would become her final words; a quiet farewell to a career, a team, cherished friends, and a life she had built over the better part of half a decade. Fans are comparing Becca’s dismissal for content in Zenith Bank, with Tega who was apparently promoted for content at FCMB. However, many argue that, Tega did not show the bank’s vault in her videos.

She was 19, riding in a convoy through Iraq, when one hidden explosion ended her life instantly forever. Carrie French was only 19 years old when she stepped into a war that demanded more than most people ever experience in a lifetime. She served with the 145th Support Battalion of the Idaho National Guard during Operation Iraqi Freedom, deployed to Kirkuk, Iraq, where every mission carried unseen danger. Her role was part of a support convoy—missions that often appeared routine but were never truly safe. In Iraq, even the simplest movement on the road required discipline, trust, and constant awareness. Threats were not always visible. Sometimes they were buried beneath the ground, waiting silently. On June 5, 2005, her convoy moved forward like so many before it. The day carried no warning, no sign of what was about to happen. Then, in an instant, an improvised explosive device detonated beneath or near the convoy. The explosion was sudden and overwhelming, leaving no time for reaction. Carrie French was killed in the line of duty. She was 19 years old—old enough to serve her country, old enough to wear the uniform, yet far too young to have her life end in a single moment of violence. After her death, she was posthumously promoted to corporal, a recognition of her service and commitment. Today, her name remains one among many in a war defined by unseen danger and sudden loss. Most people will never know her story, but for those who understand the cost of service, Carrie French represents a generation of young soldiers who stepped forward willingly—and never returned home.

On #RHORI, Alicia Carmody revealed that she once “ran over a woman” with her car, and Us Weekly has more details on the incident. On the show, Alicia explained why she does not like driving on highways. “I’ve gotten in accidents. I ran over a woman. I’ve almost driven off a bridge. So I’ve been there, done that with driving,” she said in a confessional. When Us Weekly spoke with Alicia ahead of the season, she clarified what actually happened and how it affected her. “I was driving about 15 miles per hour because I had just left a red light, and this woman suddenly dove in front of my car,” Alicia said. “It was life changing for me. It was crazy because for about 10 seconds, I thought I had killed someone.” She described it as “the worst feeling in the world” and said it has had a lasting impact on her driving. “I think that probably gave me PTSD,” she continued. “Accidents do happen, but it was just the worst.” Alicia also shared that she needs to take more classes before she feels comfortable driving on the highway again.

She Lived to 117. Scientists Studied Her for Months. Her Secret Cost $2. Maria Branyas Morera ate three yogurts a day. Every single day, for as long as anyone could remember. She mentioned this to anyone who asked about her longevity, which was often, and it was the kind of advice people receive with a warm smile and then immediately discard, because we prefer our longevity secrets to involve something more exotic than a supermarket dairy aisle. Maria died in Barcelona in 2024. She was 117. Then scientists actually looked inside her, and the smiling stopped. Her gut was packed with Bifidobacterium, a bacterium almost never found in people past 110, and far more commonly associated with infants. Her body had, in the most literal biological sense, not been informed of her actual age. It was operating on entirely different assumptions. Her DNA suggested she was somewhere between 100 and 110. She was 117. Seven years younger on the inside than the calendar insisted, which at 117 is not a rounding error. That is a extraordinary number. But to appreciate why any of this matters, you need to understand what kind of person we are talking about. Maria was born in San Francisco in 1907, the year before the Model T Ford, when Theodore Roosevelt was still in the White House and most of humanity died of things we now treat with a Tuesday afternoon at the pharmacy. Her Catalan father had come to America to make something of himself, and for a while it worked beautifully. He founded a Spanish-language magazine in New Orleans, one of the most chaotic, beautiful, swampy, and gastronomically unhinged cities on the continent, a place that has always operated on the reasonable philosophy that life is uncertain and the gumbo is excellent. Then the family got on a boat back to Spain. Maria fell on deck and permanently lost the hearing in one ear. Her father died of tuberculosis before the coast of Catalonia came into view. He was 37. She was eight. Her mother arrived in Europe with five children, no husband, and presumably very little appetite for what came next. Maria managed. She nursed soldiers in the Spanish Civil War. She outlived Franco, which required considerable patience. She raised three children. She played piano until she was 108. At 113 she caught COVID-19 and dispatched it, which at that point resembles less a medical event than a statement of intent. Then she joined Twitter. Her bio read: “I am old, very old, but not an idiot.” Her last request, before she died peacefully in her sleep, was three words: “Please study me.” The geneticists obliged with considerable enthusiasm, and their subsequent paper in Cell Reports Medicine runs to forty pages of scientists explaining, in the careful and hedged language that science requires, that this woman was remarkable in ways they had not previously encountered and were not entirely sure how to explain. The yogurt, it turns out, had been doing quiet and serious work for over a century. Nomadic peoples of Central Asia were fermenting milk 8,000 years ago, long before germ theory, before microscopes, before anyone had the faintest idea what a bacterium was. They didn’t need to understand it. Their guts understood it. The knowledge was older than writing. Maria understood it too. She didn’t publish a paper. She didn’t launch a wellness brand. She just ate her yogurt every morning and got on with the extraordinary business of being alive. Gandalv / Gandalv ✦ AI-generated image. Not the actual person. Full story:

This is why I felt so out of it. 10 years today. I take solace in the fact that my mother loved us well and did her best for us. She was a fighter, protector and provider. She endured harassment by the SAP in the Apartheid era to keep us safe. She was the keeper of secrets, my secrets in particular. She loved all of us equally and never spoke a bad word about one of my siblings to me. She endured the loss of a child with dignity and later in life would be the matriarch of the family. Keeping us together when it seems we were drifting apart. Whoever came to visit, never left empty handed. I remember Geraldine and Jasper , adopted kids that she fed and nurtured through their formative years. She was there at my lowest points in life and never failed to support me.. She could cook up a storm in the kitchen and sew dresses for us and if Matthew Duiker would allow it she would make him an underpants. The death of my brother almost destroyed her, but again she rose from the ashes to keep the home fires burning during the most terrible times her life. She loved all her grand kids equally and often talked of Cheyenne and Edwynne and just wished she could see them. Go in peace my sweet mother. Till we meet again. Hamba Kahle. lala uxolo. Sheila May Duiker nee Peters.

My husband and I decided to open our hearts to a 10-and-a-half-year-old dog. We weren't looking to adopt another dog, but when we learned that she had spent three months at the shelter without a single visitor or adoption inquiry, we couldn't bear the thought of her growing old and passing away alone. Although she wasn't with a rescue organization, her story was shared widely throughout the animal rescue community. She was incredibly gentle and sweet, and the shelter volunteers adored her. They loved her so much that they often let her spend time with them in the office instead of leaving her alone in her kennel. The day after we heard about her, we went to meet her. The moment we saw her, we knew we couldn't walk away. When we brought her home, she was covered in ticks. Helping her recover wasn't easy. We made countless trips to the veterinarian, patiently tried different treatments, and devoted a great deal of time to her care. There were moments when it felt overwhelming, but we never regretted our decision. All we wanted was for her to spend the rest of her life surrounded by love. In the end, we received the greatest gift of all. She stayed with us for three more wonderful years before peacefully passing away at 13 and a half years old, an impressive age for a dog. She brought so much joy into our family and will always hold a special place in our hearts. Senior dogs may not have as much time left, but they deserve love, care, and a real home just as much as any other dog. 🐾❤️ 📹treatsnatcher

Millie had been returned to the shelter three times before anyone called Mrs. Lawson. The first two families said she was too nervous. The third said she spent most of the day hiding beside the washing machine and wouldn't let anyone touch her without trembling. A shelter worker finally opened an old folder and found a faded note from six years earlier. Millie had once been fostered for nearly eight months by an elderly woman named Helen Lawson, who had helped her recover after she was found injured beside a highway. Mrs. Lawson hadn't seen her since the day Millie was adopted. She was 75 now, walked with a cane, and wasn't sure the dog would remember her after so much time. When she arrived, Millie stayed at the back of the kennel and stared at her. Mrs. Lawson stood outside the bars for a moment before quietly saying the name nobody at the shelter had been using. "Millie?" The dog lifted her head. She sniffed the air, sat up and watched the woman's face as though she were trying to reach back through six years of memories. Then her tail began tapping against the floor. A few seconds later, Millie rushed toward the kennel door. When the shelter worker opened it, she didn't run down the hallway or jump at everyone nearby. She went straight to Mrs. Lawson, pressed her whole body against the woman's legs and made the same quiet whining sound she used to make as a frightened young dog. Mrs. Lawson lowered herselt to the floor and held her. "You remembered me," she whispered. Mrs. Lawson knew she could no longer manage a young, difficult dog on her own, but Millie wasn't young anymore. The shelter arranged help with walks and veterinary appointments, and that afternoon they left together. Millie slept beside Mrs. Lawson's chair that first night. For the first time since returning to the shelter, she didn't hide. Do you think dogs remember the person who first made them feel safe, even after years apart?

Here is Noelia Castillo Ramos with her father only a few years back. Smiling. Happy. Loved. The government in Spain betrayed her 3 times. First, when they took her by force from her parents and put her in a government center. Over “financial troubles.” Second, when they allegedly allowed dangerous illegals into the country and did nothing to prevent it or stop them while they gang r*per her. Third, when they convinced her euthanasia was the best option and made her feel like there was no turning back. Even convincing her and her family that her organs were already compromised after the decision was made. We don't know if that part is really true, but it is difficult to believe or understand since she has been living for years after the injury she sustained jumping from the 5th story of the government center. It is difficult to think about, but she is likely taking her last breaths as I type this. Still praying for a miracle, but unfortunately, we are at the scheduled time. They planned to start the process 39 minutes ago, meaning she is already potentially in an induced coma, as the toxins that are designed to stop her from breathing begin to be administered. She should be alive and well right now and maybe even starting a family of her own. Instead, she is in a hospital all alone for what is scheduled to be the last moments of her life. Regardless of what happens, please pray for her.

A true trailblazer. Her story reminds us that strength often grows in silence, and the trail can be a path to freedom. 🥾 🌲 Born in 1887 in rural Ohio, Emma endured over 30 years of severe domestic abuse from her husband while raising 11 children on a farm. She survived broken bones, lost teeth, and near-fatal beatings, yet she raised her family with quiet strength. After divorcing in 1940 (rare for women at the time), she found solace in long walks in the woods. The Hike That Changed History In 1955, at 67 years old, Emma told her grown children she was “going for a walk.” She didn’t reveal her full plan. With almost no gear—just a pair of cheap Keds sneakers, a homemade denim bag, a shower curtain for shelter/rain protection, and minimal supplies—she set out alone to hike the entire Appalachian Trail, a rugged ~2,168-mile path from Georgia to Maine. She became the first woman to solo thru-hike the Appalachian Trail in one continuous season. No fancy backpack, no tent, no support crew. She foraged, slept on leaves or in shelters, and pushed through mountains, weather, wildlife, and exhaustion. She completed it in 146 days, summiting Mount Katahdin on September 25, 1955. Her Lasting Impact Emma hiked the A.T. again in 1957 (becoming the first person to complete it twice) and a third time in sections by 1964. She also walked ~2,000 miles of the Oregon Trail in 1959. Her story, covered widely by the media, helped spark renewed interest in the Appalachian Trail’s maintenance and popularized long-distance hiking for everyday people—especially women and older adults. She proved that resilience, determination, and a simple love of the outdoors have no age limit. Emma passed away in 1973 at age 85, but her legacy lives on in books (Grandma Gatewood’s Walk by Ben Montgomery), the Appalachian Trail Hall of Fame (inducted 2012), and as a symbol of survival and freedom. The TikTok perfectly captures the spirit: At 67, after a lifetime of hardship, she kissed her children goodbye and walked into the mountains—not just to escape, but to reclaim her life, one step at a time. Her journey showed the world that it’s never too late to start walking toward healing and adventure. “If those men can do it, I can do it.” ~Emma Gatewood~

A true trailblazer. Her story reminds us that strength often grows in silence, and the trail can be a path to freedom. 🥾 🌲 Born in 1887 in rural Ohio, Emma endured over 30 years of severe domestic abuse from her husband while raising 11 children on a farm. She survived broken bones, lost teeth, and near-fatal beatings, yet she raised her family with quiet strength. After divorcing in 1940 (rare for women at the time), she found solace in long walks in the woods. The Hike That Changed History In 1955, at 67 years old, Emma told her grown children she was “going for a walk.” She didn’t reveal her full plan. With almost no gear—just a pair of cheap Keds sneakers, a homemade denim bag, a shower curtain for shelter/rain protection, and minimal supplies—she set out alone to hike the entire Appalachian Trail, a rugged ~2,168-mile path from Georgia to Maine. She became the first woman to solo thru-hike the Appalachian Trail in one continuous season. No fancy backpack, no tent, no support crew. She foraged, slept on leaves or in shelters, and pushed through mountains, weather, wildlife, and exhaustion. She completed it in 146 days, summiting Mount Katahdin on September 25, 1955.

Svitlana, a nurse from the 128th Brigade of the Territorial Defense Forces of Ukraine, destroyed a group of Russian occupiers with a well-aimed shot from a grenade launcher, saving her unit from encirclement. When the Russians attacked with armored vehicles and landing forces, Svitlana was at the company stronghold. At that moment, the unit was left without a commander, so she took command. Svitlana received instructions via radio from the battalion commander. After a group of Russians entered one of the houses from the rear and took fire control of the escape routes, Ukrainian Warriors were surrounded. At first, Svitlana fired back together with her brothers-in-arms. But when it became clear that the unit’s positions were surrounded, the woman picked up a disposable grenade launcher. "I asked the guys to hold on and in no case leave their positions, because then we would definitely not be able to stand it. I took a disposable grenade launcher and went to meet the Russian attack unit. They got too close – they were only two houses away. I went around them, got up and fired a shot into the window of the house. The entire group of occupiers remained there," Svitlana recalls. For her heroism, she was awarded the Cross of the Ground Forces. Svitlana worked as a nurse in the intensive care unit of the Mechnikov Hospital in Dnipro. She voluntarily went to the front from the first days of the full-scale invasion. Source: The 128th Territorial Defense Brigade's press service

Even after her own life ended, she found a way to keep serving others. Ivy Unruh proudly served as a United States Marine. Friends and fellow service members respected her for her strength, discipline, and selflessness. She never hesitated to help others and carried herself with quiet determination. At just 25, tragedy struck. Authorities charged her estranged husband with first-degree murder in her death. But Ivy had made one decision long before that day: she chose to become an organ donor. That choice transformed unimaginable loss into hope. Her donated organs saved six lives — giving six people another chance to see their families, celebrate birthdays, and keep living. One friend said she had always wanted to continue helping people, even after she was gone. In the end, she did exactly that. Her service didn’t end when she took off the uniform. It didn’t end with her final breath. For six families, her legacy continues every single day. Heroes are remembered for the battles they fight… the lives they protect… and sometimes for giving others a future they would never get to see themselves. Ivy Unruh’s final act of service wasn’t on a battlefield. It was a decision she made long before anyone knew how much it would matter. Semper Fi, Marine. RIP. 🙏🇺🇸🫡

A 22-year-old woman, an IIT graduate and the daughter of a senior bureaucrat, was found dead at her home in southeast Delhi's East of Kailash area. Police said she was raped before being strangled to death with a phone charger. She was alone at home at the time of the incident. There were no signs of forced entry. Police have arrested a 19-year-old domestic help, Rahul, who had worked at the house and was dismissed over a month ago. "Investigations revealed that he used to play online games and would borrow money from other servants in the vicinity, or from domestic staff working in nearby households, without ever repaying them. This is why he was fired," Joint Commissioner of Police Vijay Kumar said. He was arrested from a hotel in the Dwarka area, where he had been hiding. He is being charged with rape, murder and robbery, police said. Rahul was seen in CCTV footage leaving the victim's residence at 6:28 am, police said. According to police, the woman was found by her family members inside the house under suspicious circumstances, after which the authorities were alerted. The victim had completed her schooling at DPS RK Puram and later graduated from IIT Delhi. She was preparing for the UPSC examination. She was also a dancer and had won several awards in dance competitions. Her elder brother holds a senior position in a multinational company, and her mother is a doctor. When police reached Rahul's residence in Alwar, they found that he had previously been involved in a sexual harassment case. Police said the accused arrived in Delhi from Alwar the previous night and is suspected to have entered the house using a spare key. Police said Rahul had been hired with a reference from a superintendent posted at the IRS officer's office.

Fallout Chrysalis Animation Showoff 👀 My biggest project to date, and I am super happy with how it turned out 🥰. Let me know what you think of it! I am eager to hear what you all think! Story: Chrysalis' stone imprisonment crumbled after more than a millennium at the hands of the Equestrian Royalty. When it finally broke apart, the Queen found herself in what seemed to be the ruins of the Canterlot Castle gardens, or what was left of them. After more than a millennium without love, Chrysalis was practically starving. For her survival, she began draining any of the scavengers and creatures she could get her hands on. One of these happened to be a vault dweller from a nearby underground vault. She would have loved to ask him more questions about this land, but her hunger was too great, and the dweller was left as an empty husk after he was drained of everything he had to give. Given her rather nude appearance, she decided to take what he no longer needed: his vault suit and a Pip-Boy, a device that would soon come in handy as she made her way to the vault dweller's home, Vault 69. #mlpart #blenderart #Yiff #Fallout #animation

She called herself a proud socialist Democrat. Like so many young, college-educated women in blue cities, Barbie believed the world was divided between oppressors and oppressed. She marched for every progressive cause and found real meaning in the protests. The demonstrations filled her life with purpose and moral clarity. Even though she had never seriously studied the Israel-Gaza conflict, the passionate slogans against “occupation,” “oppression,” and “apartheid,” along with calls for “freedom” and “resistance,” sounded righteous to her. The emotional intensity of the activists made her feel she was on the right side of history, so she never asked difficult questions or looked deeper into the facts. Then she met him at a campus protest against Israel. He presented himself as a refugee who had suffered under Western imperialism. Barbie saw a victim, not a threat. She took him in, posted about their relationship as an act of “resistance,” and was celebrated by her activist friends as a symbol of love overcoming hate. After a few months, he convinced her to move into his community—a closed, insular neighborhood where most asylum seekers and migrants from his background lived. In this once-proud patriotic city, they had become the majority in large parts of the urban area. What used to symbolize national identity had transformed into a parallel society where Western norms were no longer dominant. It was there that the violence became more frequent and open. He would scream at her, grab her, and hit her in front of neighbors. No one intervened. No one seemed surprised. Some even looked at her with disapproval, as if she were the problem. Still, Barbie believed he could change. She told herself that with enough love, he would see her pain. She forgave him again and again, convincing herself each time that the next outburst would be the last. But she never dared to call the police or seek help. She was terrified of of being accused of racism or Islamophobia, or labeled “far-right” by her liberal friends. So she stayed silent, isolated, and slowly disappeared from her old life. One day, the man she defended killed her. Barbie is not her real name, but her story is becoming more common. The same political circles in the West that promote open borders and mass immigration refuse to acknowledge a simple truth: not all cultures are equal. They deny it, suppress discussion, and continue flooding the West with people from incompatible societies. In doing so, they brainwash a generation and prevent real protection for the women and girls most at risk from the ideology they imported. In the Muslim world there is very little diversity. Minorities are steadily disappearing, along with traces of pre-Islamic civilizations. Islam is fundamentally totalitarian. While Western cultures were built to protect women, Islam treats them as property—selling girls as child brides, forcing them into marriage, and condemning them to lives of suffering and control. Every year, thousands of women are murdered by their families in so-called “honor killings.” In most cases, these murders are not treated as serious crimes because they align with Islamic teachings. Barbie believed the slogans. She paid for them with her life. How many more women must be sacrificed before the West stops lying to itself about the consequences of importing incompatible cultures? It is time to end mass immigration from societies that do not respect basic Western values—especially regarding women. Asylum must be strictly limited and properly vetted. Anyone who supports violence against women, honor culture, or the supremacy of Sharia over Western law has no place in the West. Anyone who blames her or claims she “brought it on herself” is consciously or unconsciously trying to deny the real threat. If you genuinely care about women’s rights and the future safety of your daughters, you cannot accept this as normal, inevitable, or something to joke about.

Here is a heartwarming story. Ever since Ginger joined us, Bunsen has REALLY wanted to be her friend. He was curious about her, mesmerized by her movement, and enthralled by her presence. Early on, he followed her and just looked at her as she jumped on things that probably broke his brain. Sadly for Bunsen, Ginger wanted nothing to do with the big guy. She would occasionally bat his face if he got too close or attack his tree trunk legs. One time she tried to bite his tail. Don’t worry, Bunsen is so fluffy he never got hurt. Eventually he gave up and just let Ginger run the house- he gave her a wide berth if she was sleeping on the floor and watched her warily when she crossed in front of him while he was laying down. Yesterday Kris said LOOK and Ginger was in Bunsen’s crate. Perhaps it was to escape Bernoulli’s terror, but Bunsen was thrilled. It only lasted a hour, but Bunsen was happy. He had come off his pain meds and had been crying in pain for a while. When Ginger jumped into his crate, Bunsen stopped crying. You can see his happy wag in the video. He was over the moon she was so close to him. We will never know really what animals think, but I’d like to think they care for each other in their own way.

People are trying to make sense of why Reform have put forward Laila Cunningham as their candidate for Mayor of London. Is she a real Muslim? Is Reform containment? The simplest answer is that Cunningham is only interested in politics as a path for self-promotion. She's a grifter. She saw Reform are likely to form the next government, rote-learned the slick "British values" talking points to get ahead in a party desperate to not be called racist, and was pushed as the progressive-proof face of the party. Everything she does is to increase her personal advantage. She made headlines with her "supermum" citizens arrest stunt. She was in favour of hate crime legislation when it benefitted her. She wrote Woke poetry about how London's diversity was its strength — words which could have come straight from the mouth of Sadiq Khan. Then she jumped aboard the Conservatives when they were in power. She took selfies with everyone she could, because it was more important to be seen at functions than to be actually doing anything. She went to Pride and hosted the first Iftar event as a Councillor for Westminster North. The contradictions don't matter. She doesn't believe anything consistent. These are just the rituals of being a part of liberal political circles. The passwords you have to speak to be part of the club. It gatekeeps in favour of shameless grifters. She only pulled out of being the Conservative Parliamentary candidate for Rotherham right before the 2024 election. What connection does she have to Rotherham? None, since she loves London so much that she's always lived there and wants to be Mayor. She just took the seat as a nonwhite Muslim woman, until she realised she couldn't win and it would damage her future prospects. We shouldn’t trust Cunningham. Not just because she's a Muslim, and both the British right and public at large don't like Islam. We shouldn’t trust her because her entire political career appears to be about making her famous. She wants to be in power and on camera for the sake of it. She isn't really all that interested in philosophy or policy. Otherwise, she wouldn't be reciting insults like "far right" or pushing the incoherent platitudes of "British values", because neither stand up to scrutiny. It's a grift. And if we want an effective right-wing in this country, we shouldn’t reward it.

In Remembrance of Hedy Lamarr. Born | November 9, 1914 in Vienna, Austria. Died | January 19, 2000 aged 85 in Casselberry, Florida, USA. Hedy Lamarr, the woman many critics and fans alike regard as the most beautiful ever to appear in films, was born Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler in Vienna, Austria. She was the daughter of Gertrud (Lichtwitz), from Budapest, and Emil Kiesler, a banker from Lemberg (now known as Lviv). Her parents were both from Jewish families. Hedwig had a calm childhood, but it was cinema that fascinated her. By the time she was a teenager, she decided to drop out of school and seek fame as an actress, and was a student of theatre director Max Reinhardt in Berlin. Her first role was a bit part in the German film Geld auf der Straße (1930) (aka “Money on the Street”) in 1930. She was attractive and talented enough to be in three more German productions in 1931, but it would be her fifth film that catapulted her to worldwide fame. In 1932 she appeared in a Czech film called Ekstase (US title: “Ecstasy”) and had made the gutsy move to appear nude. It's the story of a young girl who is married to a gentleman much older than she, but she winds up falling in love with a young soldier. The film's nude scenes created a sensation all over the world. The scenes, very tame by today's standards, caused the film to be banned by the U.S. government at the time. Hedy soon married Fritz Mandl, a munitions manufacturer and a prominent Austrofascist. He attempted to buy up all the prints of “Ecstasy” he could lay his hands on (Italy's dictator, Benito Mussolini, had a copy but refused to sell it to Mandl), but to no avail (there are prints floating around the world today). The notoriety of the film brought Hollywood to her door. She was brought to the attention of MGM mogul Louis B.

This was followed a year later by Lady of the Tropics (1939). In 1942, she played the plum role of Tondelayo in the classic White Cargo (1942). After World War II, her career began to decline, and MGM decided it would be in the interest of all concerned if her contract were not renewed.

At the beginning of World War II, along with composer George Antheil, Lamarr co-invented a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes that used spread spectrum and frequency hopping technology to defeat the threat of radio jamming by the Axis powers.

The film's success led to more parts, but it was not enough to ease her financial crunch. She made only six more films between 1949 and 1957, the last being The Female Animal (1957). The 1970s was a decade of increasing seclusion for Lamarr. She was offered several scripts, television commercials, and stage projects, but none piqued her interest. In 1974, she filed a $10 million lawsuit against Warner Bros., claiming that the running parody of her name (“Hedley Lamarr”) in the Mel Brooks comedy Blazing Saddles infringed her right to privacy. Brooks said he was flattered. The studio settled out of court for an undisclosed nominal sum and an apology to Lamarr for “almost using her name”. Brooks said that Lamarr “never got the joke”.

Lamarr sued the company for using her image without her permission. Corel countered that she did not own rights to the image. The parties reached an undisclosed settlement in 1998. For her contribution to the motion picture industry, Lamarr has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6247 Hollywood Boulevard adjacent to Vine Street where the walk is centered. Lamarr became estranged from her older son, James Lamarr Loder, when he was 12 years old. Their relationship ended abruptly, and he moved in with another family. They did not speak again for almost 50 years. Lamarr left James Loder out of her will, and he sued for control of the US$3.3 million estate left by Lamarr in 2000. He eventually settled for US$50,000. In her later years, Lamarr lived in Altamonte Springs, Florida, before moving to Casselberry, Florida, in the final months of her life. She communicated with family and friends almost exclusively by telephone. However, after moving to Casselberry, two friends who lived nearby would visit her at home to check on her a few times a week. On January 19, 2000, Lamarr was found dead at her home in Casselberry at the age of 85; the cause of death was heart disease. Her son Anthony Loder spread part of her ashes in Austria's Vienna Woods in accordance with her last wishes. In 2014, a memorial to Lamarr was unveiled in Vienna's Central Cemetery.

In Remembrance of Hedy Lamarr. Born | November 9, 1914 in Vienna, Austria. Died | January 19, 2000 aged 85 in Casselberry, Florida, USA. Hedy Lamarr, the woman many critics and fans alike regard as the most beautiful ever to appear in films, was born Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler in Vienna, Austria. She was the daughter of Gertrud (Lichtwitz), from Budapest, and Emil Kiesler, a banker from Lemberg (now known as Lviv). Her parents were both from Jewish families. Hedwig had a calm childhood, but it was cinema that fascinated her. By the time she was a teenager, she decided to drop out of school and seek fame as an actress, and was a student of theatre director Max Reinhardt in Berlin. Her first role was a bit part in the German film Geld auf der Straße (1930) (aka “Money on the Street”) in 1930. She was attractive and talented enough to be in three more German productions in 1931, but it would be her fifth film that catapulted her to worldwide fame. In 1932 she appeared in a Czech film called Ekstase (US title: “Ecstasy”) and had made the gutsy move to appear nude. It's the story of a young girl who is married to a gentleman much older than she, but she winds up falling in love with a young soldier. The film's nude scenes created a sensation all over the world. The scenes, very tame by today's standards, caused the film to be banned by the U.S. government at the time. Hedy soon married Fritz Mandl, a munitions manufacturer and a prominent Austrofascist. He attempted to buy up all the prints of “Ecstasy” he could lay his hands on (Italy's dictator, Benito Mussolini, had a copy but refused to sell it to Mandl), but to no avail (there are prints floating around the world today). The notoriety of the film brought Hollywood to her door. She was brought to the attention of MGM mogul Louis B. Mayer, who signed her to a contract (a notorious prude when it came to his studio's films, Mayer signed her against his better judgment, but the money he knew her notoriety would bring in to the studio overrode any moral concerns he may have had). However, he insisted she change her name and make good, wholesome films. Hedy starred in a series of exotic adventure epics. She made her American film debut as Gaby in Algiers (1938).
