When it was released in 1959, Beh Hur became the second highest grossing film in history (behind Gone With The Wind) - saving MGM from bankruptcy. It won an astonishing 11 Academy Awards, including best musical scoring by composer Miklós Rózsa.
It's good music for Easter. I hope that you (like we) are enjoying it with family.
Here's another recent example of why Jewish Americans must embrace and exercise their right to keep and bear arms as protected by the Second Amendment. Being a defenseless victim is NOT a Jewish virtue. In fact, it is against Jewish law.

My book "Guns for Jews" discusses why being armed for self defense is in accordance with Jewish law, and provides resources for those new to owning and carrying a firearm. The link goes to the free PDF on my Google Drive.

I found this over at Instapundit this morning.
Evidently, the US is building a temporary runway about 50 km from the Iranian city of Isfahan. Ostensibly to fly out the Iranian nuclear material once the US takes possession of it. Isfahan is a large Iranian city, with about 2.2 million population. The fact that the IRGC can't challenge it is a huge testament to their current ineffectiveness.
This is a huge logistical flex. To build a usable runway while under an active bombing campaign. If the US really wanted to flex against them, they would park a working Burger King on the end of the ramp. Next to the NCO club, with a stripper pole.
Hiding alone in a mountain crevice behind enemy lines, the injured American airman knew exactly what to do: survive and evade.
For more than a day, the weapons systems officer whose F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down inside Iran avoided being captured by encroaching Iranian forces. At one point, he scaled the rugged terrain to a ridgeline 7,000 feet above sea level, equipped with little more than a pistol, a communication device and a tracking beacon.
It was into the high mountains that a team of American commandos, accompanied by US aircraft dropping bombs to clear the area, swarmed to locate the officer, bringing him and themselves to safety.
The FBI arrested a married couple Thursday accused of fraudulently billing Medicare for $7.45 million while running a hospice with a survival rate reported to be more than 97% after five years. They were the first in a series of arrests planned Thursday, federal officials told CBS News.
A high survival rate at a hospice provider is one of a series of red flags identified by state auditors for fraud because most people enter hospice care in the final stages of a terminal illness. In past cases of fraud, operators were found to be using false or stolen identities to collect federal reimbursements for palliative care.
This depressing chart shows more than $1 trillion dollars of Medicare spending in 2024. Other coverage reports that the task force examining this hospice fraud was named "Never Say Die."
You wonder how much of our hopeless deficits might disappear if the fraudsters were defanged. Also, how many people in need of medical care are shunted aside by the fraudsters.
Puyallup police officers responded to a domestic violence call in the 1200 block of 31st Street NW shortly after 9 a.m. on April 2.
A family dispute that began in a home spilled outside, and the three people ended up in a neighbor's driveway and garage.
The suspect, identified as Guanlao through medical examiner records, was armed with a handgun and shot the two women, according to police.
The owner of the home where the shooting occurred intervened, shooting Guanlao. Guanlao died at the scene.
Around 6:30 p.m., deputies were dispatched to a report of a burglary in progress in the 19000 block of Alta Vista Avenue.
They arrived to find the suspect — identified only as male — suffering
from a gunshot wound, officials said. He was pronounced dead at the
scene.

From Saving Grace - A Story of Adoption by LB Johnson
It seemed like those childhood years were a blink. Our dog Pepper had crossed the Rainbow Bridge; Dad was getting ready to retire. Before I knew it my brother was off to the Navy, going to submarine school, myself already in college, working toward my commercial pilot’s license. I ultimately wanted to major in science or criminal justice, perhaps both—but as a teen I got a second job at the local airport pumping gas. I could get flying lessons at a reduced cost, so I was working toward my license while cramming in way more classes than I had hours in the day. For that kind of overextending, there is a “complete breakfast”—which for me was Hostess Sno Balls and coffee, grabbed when a parent wasn’t looking. Unhealthy yes, but just the taste of them took me back. It was that and the big bowl of Captain Crunch before every flight check. I was glad years later when I got my nickname as a pilot that it was “Shake and Bake” and not “Captain Crunch.”Still—all good memories. Memories of childhood are so different for many people. I am lucky that mine were good. Laughter and exploration wrapped in a warm blanket of sight and sound and tastes that are still on my tongue. Memories of the past are like that; often having an impossible quality of perfection we frequently give to material things, a favorite book, a favorite tool or firearm; sometimes to a whole relationship we can never get back to.
We’ve all talked about it, some small trivial thing from the past that appears to contain the sublime, and there’s no explaining it to anyone, try though you might. Still, in your mind’s eye it’s there and always will be as clear and as sure as if it were yesterday. For me one such memory is opening up the lunch box as a kid and finding my Hostess treat next to my peanut butter and honey sandwich, apple, and carrot sticks.
Mom’s cancer was one of those things that will stay with me for a lifetime. She was first diagnosed in the early ’60s. The long term survival rate for her type of cancer then was only one in seven. When she was first diagnosed, she was only in her forties. I was not even in school yet, my brother only a couple of years older. She came home after Christmas that first time, chemo shunt in place, and did everything in her power to make our life normal. I don’t recall her initially leaving for the hospital, only the worried look in my dad’s eyes. But the photos bring it back, like the one of my brother at her hospital bed with a little aluminum tree on the nightstand—as she holds up a flannel nightgown Dad picked out and bought “from us” that she opened from her hospital bed.
I was too young to appreciate the depth of what she did for us, instilling in us love for each other and appreciation for the blessings of our table. But I was old enough to see that courage is simply the power to see past misfortune or expectation, to hold on to the things that affirm inwardly that life with all its trials is still good. Be it a warm hug or sweet treats handed to us with a smile and a touch on our head, a benediction of love that could only come from the wellspring of faith that stayed within her.
I cannot, no matter how hard I try, remember her voice; but if I close my eyes I can remember that touch. It was not a touch as heavy and uncaring as a slap, but one that simply said: I love you, but you must have courage and craft your life for yourself, just let me share it as long as I can.
We crammed a lot of life into those short childhood years, as did our mom. More than we expected her to have, but not nearly enough. It’s been a lifetime since she left us, and all that remains are the memories—memories that come on the wings of a snowfall; that raise a smile every time I see an acorn squash at the grocery store; that rumble into life with the roar of a locomotive or the soft crackle of a little cellophane package being gleefully opened by eager hands.
It was five in the morning. In a few hours I would have to get up and go to the airport to fuel the aircraft for the morning students, cram in some studying, and then ride my bike to the community college for class. The alarm went off much too early, my hand slapping it even as it gently touched a photo of my brother and me as children, Pepper the wiener dog lying between us as we watched Johnny Quest.Limbo
The ancient greyness shifted suddenly and thinned like mist upon the moors before a wind.
An old, old prophet lifted a shining face and said:
“He will be coming soon. The Son of God is dead; He died this afternoon.”
A murmurous excitement stirred all souls. They wondered if they dreamed
save one old man who seemed not even to have heard.
And Moses, standing, hushed them all to ask if any had a welcome song prepared.
If not, would David take the task?
And if they cared could not the three young children sing the Benedicite,
the canticle of praise they made when God kept them from perishing in the fiery blaze?
A breath of spring surprised them, stilling Moses’ words.
No one could speak, remembering the first fresh flowers, the little singing birds.
Still others thought of fields new ploughed or apple trees all blossom-boughed.
Or some, the way a dried bed fills with water laughing down green hills.
The fisherfolk dreamed of the foam on bright blue seas.
The one old man who had not stirred remembered home.
And there He was, splendid as the morning sun and fair as only God is fair.
And they, confused with joy, knelt to adore
Seeing that He wore five crimson stars He never had before.
No canticle at all was sung. None toned a psalm, or raised a greeting song,
A silent man alone of all that throng found tongue — not any other.
Close to His heart when the embrace was done, old Joseph said,
“How is Your Mother, How is Your Mother, Son?”
-- Sister Mary Ada, OSJ

Ohio Statehouse
Ohio Senate Bill 392 was introduced into the Ohio legislature on March 23, 2026. It is a long bill of 182 pages which reforms and rationalizes much of the Ohio code involving the possession and carry of weapons. Here is the summary as listed in legiscan. Summary:
To amend sections 9.68, 109.69, 109.731, 311.41, 311.42, 311.43, 1547.69, 2921.13, 2923.11, 2923.111, 2923.12, 2923.121, 2923.122, 2923.123, 2923.124, 2923.125, 2923.126, 2923.127, 2923.128, 2923.129, 2923.1210, 2923.1211, 2923.1212, 2923.1213, 2923.16, 2923.17, 2953.35, 4511.19, and 4749.10 and to repeal section 1533.04 of the Revised Code to enact the Freedom to Carry Act to rename a concealed handgun license a concealed weapons license, to allow a concealed weapons licensee to carry a concealed deadly weapon other than an exclusive deadly weapon,
and to allow the possession or transportation of a loaded firearm while in a motor vehicle or vessel.
There are many parts to SB 392. Much of the bill consists of changing the word "handgun" to deadly weapon. This appears to be because Ohio law, at current, only allows the carry of handguns under a concealed carry permit, and does not allow, or is unclear about other deadly weapons. It makes no sense to be able to carry a handgun, but not a knife, a fist re-enforcer, or nun-chucks.
The bill continues to prohibit some weapons which may fall under the category of "dangerous and unusual" as used in Second Amendment jurisprudence following the Heller, MacDonald, Caetano, and Bruen decisions. For example, it appears destructive devices are still banned from carry if they are not owned in accordance with National Firearms Act provisions. Short barreled rifles, short barreled shotguns and silencers appear to be removed from the list of prohibited weapons in this bill. Here is the definition of "exclusive deadly weapon" in the bill. Underlined words are new words. Strike thru words are words to be removed. The weapons meeting the definition are a very short list:
(2) "Exclusive deadly weapon" means a deadly weapon that is an exclusive firearm or that is a deadly weapon that any law of this state or the United States prohibits the subject person from acquiring, possessing, having, or carrying.
(3) "Exclusive firearm" means a firearm that is dangerous ordnance or that is a firearm that any law of this state or the United States prohibits the subject person from acquiring, possessing, having, or carrying.
The number of weapons which fall under the above definitions has been considerably reduced.
In addition, SB392 changes the age requirement for obtaining a concealed carry permit from Twenty-one to Eighteen. From SB392:
(2) "Qualifying adult" means a person who is all of the following:
(a) Twenty-one Eighteen years of age or older;
The bill changes the definition of prohibited weapons from a very specific reference to the National Firearms Act (NFA) provisions to a general provision. This is likely put in place so that if the courts strike down the parts of the NFA, the Ohio legislature will not be required to revise Ohio laws again. From the bill:
(b) Not legally prohibited from acquiring, possessing, or receiving a firearm deadly weapon under 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(1) to (9) or under section 2923.13 of the Revised Code or any other Revised Code provision the law of this state or the United States;
There are changes which remove some of the restrictions on the carry of weapons in vehicles and vessels.
SB392 is one of the longest state bills this reporter has encountered in decades. It has a significant chance of being amended if it is passed. The provisions appear to be clear rationalizations and clarifications in light of Supreme Court decisions involving the Second Amendment.
The Ohio Legislature has a super majority of Republicans in the Senate, 24 of 33. The Ohio House of Representatives has a super majority of Republicans in the House, 65 of 99. The Ohio Governor is Mike DeWine, a Republican.
Analysis: SB392 has a good chance of passage. Its provisions are reasonable and likely to resonate with conservatives in Ohio. This could boost electoral prospects for Republicans in Ohio in the 2026 elections. This correspondent is not a lawyer. This article is not legal advise.

My Prepping Journey began in 1967 when I moved to San Francisco. Spots on the radio urged us to prepare for an earthquake, The Big One. So one day while I was grocery shopping, I threw a flashlight in my cart and then put it in my trunk. On another trip I threw a cardboard box into my trunk. In the ensuing months, I added some bottles of water, a knife, some Power Bars, and cans of soup. I later learned that the heat of the trunk would destroy the soup, so I replaced it with beef jerky and peanuts. …
