Jesse Colin Young, the renowned guitarist and frontman of the classic rock band The Youngbloods, has passed away at the age of 83. A representative confirmed his d**th to PEOPLE on Sunday, March 16.

“It is with deep sadness that we announce music legend Jesse Colin Young, who left a unique mark on the intersecting worlds of folk, blues, jazz, country, and rock & roll, d**d in his home in Aiken, South Carolina yesterday afternoon,” the statement read.

“As the frontman of The Youngbloods, he immortalized the ideals of the Woodstock generation with ‘Get Together,’ an international hit that called for peace and brotherhood during the turbulent 1960s.”

Jesse Colin Young, born Perry Miller on November 22, 1941, in Queens, New York, was a singer-songwriter and guitarist best known as the frontman of the folk-rock band The Youngbloods. His career spanned more than six decades, during which he became a defining voice of the 1960s counterculture movement.

Young grew up in Pennsylvania and later attended Phillips Academy in Massachusetts before enrolling at Ohio State University. However, his love for music led him to drop out and pursue a career as a folk musician. In the early 1960s, he released two solo albums, The Soul of a City Boy (1964) and Young Blood (1965), before forming The Youngbloods with guitarist Jerry Corbitt, drummer Joe Bauer, and bassist Lowell Levinger.

The band gained widespread recognition with their 1967 hit “Get Together,” a call for unity and peace that became an anthem of the era. Though it initially had modest success, the song’s re-release in 1969 propelled it to mainstream popularity. The Youngbloods recorded several albums, including Elephant Mountain (1969), before Young embarked on a solo career in 1972.

As a solo artist, Young blended folk, rock, jazz, and blues influences, releasing albums such as Song for Juli (1973), Light Shine (1974), and On the Road (1976). His music often reflected his passion for social justice and environmental issues.

Despite facing personal and professional challenges, including a Lyme disease diagnosis in the 1980s, Young continued to perform and release music. His later albums, including Dr

In recent years, cremation has become an increasingly popular choice for handling the remains of the deceased, especially in the Western world. But for many Christians, the question still lingers: Is cremation a sin according to the Bible?

While the Bible does not directly forbid cremation, many theologians and believers point to scriptural principles that have sparked debate for centuries.

According to Genesis 3:19, “For dust you are and to dust you shall return,” traditional burial has long been seen as a symbol of the hope of resurrection. Throughout the Old and New Testaments, burial—not burning—was the common practice for the faithful. From Abraham burying Sarah (Genesis 23) to the burial of Jesus himself, scripture often reflects a respect for the body in death.

Some Christians argue that cremation dishonors the body, which is described in 1 Corinthians 6:19 as the “temple of the Holy Spirit.” They believe the body should be laid to rest intact, as a sign of faith in the physical resurrection promised in 1 Thessalonians 4:16.

Others, however, maintain that God’s power to resurrect is not limited by how a body decomposes—whether naturally in a grave or through fire. After all, martyrs have perished in flames, oceans, and disasters, yet their faith remains intact.

Still, many pastors warn believers to examine their motives. “If someone chooses cremation for selfish or pagan reasons, that’s where the spiritual danger lies,” said Pastor John Elliott of Faith Assembly Church. “It’s less about the method and more about the heart.”

So is cremation a sin? The Bible doesn’t give a black-and-white answer, but it does invite deep reflection. For many Christians, it comes down to personal conviction, respect for the body, and trust in the power of resurrection.

As modern culture evolves, so too does the discussion around death, dignity, and doctrine. Whether buried or cremated, the eternal question remains the same: what lies beyond this life?

Don’t judge a book by its cover is an old saying, but it never hurts to be reminded of it.

If a parent does not fit the usual mold of a parent, judging them simply on their appearance might be very unjust.

The tattoos on his face led others to accuse him of being a horrible father. His wife then revealed some unexpected information, which shocked everyone. Read on to find out more…

One of the pillars of individuality is self-expression. Since they allow people to express themselves visually, tattoos are a fantastic way of self-expression.

Richard Huff, 51, has over 240 tattoos on his body and utilizes them as a means of self-expression.

The ink junkie is raising five kids with his wife. To the dismay of the internet at large, his wife routinely posts on social media with him and his kids in it.

The 51-year-old Huff wants people to know that his family is “no different” from any other. But he has admitted that complete strangers regularly ridicule him online because of his appearance.

He described his beginnings. “It became an addiction, I started with my legs and worked my way up,” Huff said.

He said that 85 percent of his body was now covered in tattoos. Among his tattoos are the lips of his daughter and their names.

“I want to be 100% covered in tattoos probably within the next four years,” shared Richard. “I don’t know if it’s the pain or the artwork that you put on you, but it just becomes fascinating when you’re able to do this.”

He claimed that having so many tattoos had its own difficulties. He admitted that the kids at his kids’ school thought he was scary.

In her own words, his daughter has said, “They say, ’ah it’s a bit scary’ and I say ’no, my dad is not scary, he is good with tattoos.’”

Marita, Richard’s wife, admitted that she, too, was terrified of him. She admitted, “I did judge Richard based on his looks at first but as I got to know him a little bit, he is actually a big-hearted person.”

She frequently writes in her blog posts about how much her husband adores her. She continuously praises his qualities, calling him a devoted husband and loving father.

Marita has revealed to others that Richard is much more than a true father to his three children from previous marriages.

Richard said when questioned about his neighbourhood participation, “I participate in the PTA, I go to all my kids’ functions.”

Despite the fact that his kindness is well known, many still criticise him. One user commented on his facial tattoos and said, “I’m not against tattoos, but I mean honestly, does he really need tattoos on his face like that?”

However, Richard is not the only one who has supporters. “Everyone keeps talking about his face tattoo. He likes it. He got it. He’s a good father. Let him be.”

Richard responded to the critique by saying, “If somebody can make negative comments like that, there’s something wrong with them themselves that they would have to judge somebody else.” Adding, “This is what we did and we’re happy. We’ve been together six years our kids are happy and to us, that’s all that matters.”

Richard goes on to remark that no matter how much his family despises him or how much he despises them, he still loves them.. “Having tattoos does not scare my children, it does not make me a bad father, it makes my kids get a different perspective on life,” he said.

Some people find it hard to believe this is the same person after seeing him without all the tattoos!

Richard Huff appears to be a nice husband and father who is greatly loved by his family.

You can’t judge a book by its cover, and he’s living proof of that!

The United States, home to one of the largest prison populations in the world, faces a deeply troubling reality that continues to provoke national debate, international criticism, and soul-searching about the ethics of its justice system: at least 79 children under the age of 14 are serving life sentences without the possibility of parole.

ADS 1

This alarming figure—brought to light by organizations such as Human Rights Watch and the Equal Justice Initiative—has intensified conversations around juvenile justice and the moral boundaries of criminal punishment in America.

The stories behind these numbers are as complex as they are heartbreaking.

Some of these children were convicted of murder during robberies; others were sentenced for acting as accomplices in crimes where they never held a weapon. A common thread connects many of them: backgrounds marked by poverty, abuse, systemic racism, and trauma.

One of the most widely publicized cases is that of Lionel Tate, who was arrested at age 12 after the death of a 6-year-old girl during a pretend wrestling match. Though his sentence was later overturned, his case ignited a national conversation about prosecuting and sentencing children as adults.

"Sentencing children to life without parole defies the most fundamental principles of justice and child rights," says Juan Méndez, former UN Special Rapporteur on Torture. "These are individuals who have not yet matured emotionally, psychologically, or morally. To lock them away for life is to strip them of any hope for redemption or rehabilitation."

Yet, some state prosecutors argue that certain crimes—even when committed by minors—are so severe that they warrant the harshest penalties available. States like Florida, Michigan, and Pennsylvania lead the nation in sentencing children to life imprisonment without parole.

Over the past decade, the U.S. Supreme Court has issued landmark rulings on this issue. In 2012, it ruled that mandatory life sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional, and in 2016, it extended that ruling retroactively. Despite these decisions, many affected cases have yet to be reviewed.

Civil rights groups continue to advocate for the reevaluation of these sentences and call for more compassionate alternatives—such as restorative justice, rehabilitation programs, and the regular reassessment of long-term sentences.

"Childhood should be a time for growth and second chances, not a life sentence behind bars," says Bryan Stevenson, civil rights attorney and founder of the Equal Justice Initiative. "To say a child can never change is to reject not only human dignity but scientific understanding."

In a country where justice, safety, and redemption remain central to public discourse, the plight of these 79 children stands as a stark reminder: a nation's humanity is measured not just by how it punishes wrongdoing—but by how it protects and believes in its most vulnerable.

Innocent man gets sentenced to 17 years of prison – when the judge analyzed his case once again he ordered to release him

When the law is broken, the culprit pays. But what happens when the culprit is actually an innocent man, someone who has a family at home and has lived his life in peace, obeying the laws and taking care not to deviate from the path of the righteous. If you don’t believe in bad luck, then this man’s case will make you think twice. He spent almost two decades of his life behind bars, for an act that was not committed by him.

Richard Anthony Jones had a normal life with his family in Missouri, working every day to provide all the necessities of the house, being a good father, husband, and citizen. One day, he was visited by some police officers and arrested for a crime that he said he did not commit. He claimed that he did not know what it was about, being a man with the fear of God, humble, and working a lot for his family.

At the final trial, because no fingerprints were found on the spot, eyewitnesses confirmed that he was guilty of armed robbery and in 1999 he began his sentence in a maximum-security prison. He got used to the idea. In the end, it seemed like the system was against him. Richard has often been mistaken in prison for a man who, according to detainees he met there, appears to be his twin brother. Moreover, the two have the same first name.

Finding out all these incredible details, the man tried to appeal and explain to the lawyer’s ex officio about what he heard in prison, but nobody listened.

Following an appeal, the lawyer who handled his case presented pictures of the “twin”, the man who looked exactly like Richard. They realized that the criminal was out there, wandering.

The innocent man was released in 2016, after 17 years in prison for an act he did not commit. He could see his newborn daughter at the time he was sentenced, in her true splendor, a gorgeous 17-year-old teenager. This man went through very difficult times and due to a mistake he spent almost a lifetime in prison, while the true criminal was out there doing who knows what type of miseries. Many people would go crazy if they were in his place. Share this amazing story!

Bianca Censori is once again making waves online — and not everyone’s applauding…

Kanye West and Bianca Censori have been married since 2022. Yet though it’s only been three years, it’s been reported that her friends and family are concerned about her health and marriage.

ADS 1

It’s been claimed she has become Kanye’s “puppet,” and while nothing is known for certain, things don’t always appear to be healthy.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, a source claimed that Kanye has set up a series of rules that Censori has to live by. That includes choosing what his wife gets to eat, when she can work out, and what she should be wearing. In November 2023, her friends reportedly arranged an intervention with her, urging her to “wake the f*ck up.” Moreover, the artist reportedly had instructed his wife to “never speak.”

Not long ago, 30-year-old Australian architect and wife of rapper Kanye West took to Instagram to show off another jaw-dropping look that left little to the imagination: a sheer black fishnet halter top and pantyhose that revealed everything.

Fresh off a trip to Spain locals were reportedly “horrified” by her barely-there look at a market in Mallorca. Days later, Bianca was spotted walking the stylish streets of Tokyo’s Ginza district with her sister Angelina Censori, Kanye West, and Kanye’s 11-year-old daughter, North West.

While Bianca kept things more covered up in public this time, the online buzz from her earlier Instagram snaps was still in full swing.

“Sometimes less really isn’t more”

The moment Bianca posted the NSFW snaps on May 27, fans flooded the comments.

“God, I’ve just opened the Instagram app to see this,” one person quipped.

“Sometimes less really isn’t more,” added another, according to The Mirror.

Some also users expressed concern, criticizing Bianca for the consistent nudity on display.

“She’s such a beautiful woman but she doesn’t need all this to stay relevant. It’s really sad to see actually,” one fan lamented.

Another wrote, “This girl needs to realize that there’s much more to women than showing off every inch of your body in such a vulgar way. Where is the class and decorum? Not a good look.”

Still, others were thrilled by her boldness:

“Bianca is the hottest woman alive and Kanye is the luckiest man on Earth.”

Legal trouble on the horizon?

Bianca’s outfit in Spain – which revealed her nipples while shopping at a family market – sparked serious backlash and even talk of legal consequences. While Spain didn’t take action, legal experts in California said similar behavior stateside might land her in trouble under California Penal Code 314(1) for indecent exposure.

According to the law, such an act must be “willful and lewd”, meaning:

• You intentionally expose your genitals or naked body
   
• You do so in front of someone likely to be annoyed or offended
   
• You do it for attention, sexual gratification, or to offend others

Grammys shock and Kanye’s hand in it?

This isn’t Bianca’s first headline-grabbing outfit, as you may know.

At the 2025 Grammy Awards in February, she stunned photographers when she dramatically removed her oversized black fur coat, revealing a see-through dress with absolutely nothing underneath.

While Bianca remained tight-lipped about the moment, Kanye appeared to take full credit. He boasted on Instagram:

“We beat the Grammies [sic].”

“For clarity February 4th 2025 My wife is the most Googled person on the planet called Earth.”

A lip reader later claimed Kanye was instructing Bianca on the red carpet:

“Make a scene, I’ll say it’ll make so much sense. Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you.”

To which Bianca allegedly replied: “Alright, let’s go.”

Is she challenging societal norms or just chasing attention? Either way, Bianca Censori has everyone talking — and that might be the point.

Long before technology sent single socks into a spinning purgatory, people were more resourceful, creating tools to effectively complete the most daunting of household chores.

One of those tools is this wooden peg, which over the years evolved into a two-piece pin that secured items to a line. This was a significant improvement from the earlier model that fed socks and other garments to the wind, “a serious evil to washerwomen.”

Recently, an online user found little wooden dowels with two legs and went to social media looking for help in identifying the objects.

The Facebook post attracted a generation of nostalgic boomers, offering the answer: “Old school clothespins. [We] used them for hanging clean wet clothes outside on the [clothes] line to dry in the sun [and] fresh air!”

A wooden clothespin, also known simply as a clothes peg, is a traditional household tool used for hanging wet laundry on a clothesline to dry. Today, the pins typically consist of two wooden pieces hinged together at one end, with a spring mechanism that provides the necessary tension to grip onto the clothing.

Ancient times

The history of wooden clothespins can be traced back to ancient times when people used various methods to secure their laundry while drying.

The earliest carved clothespins date back to ancient times and were quite different from the wooden clothespins we are familiar with today. These early clothespins were typically handcrafted from natural materials such as wood, bone, or even stone, and oftentimes featured ornate patterns or motifs.

The modern wooden clothespin, as we know it today, emerged in the 19^th century as a response to the growing need for a convenient and effective tool to hang laundry.

The earliest versions of the clothespins we know today, were handcrafted from solid wood, often maple or birch, and featured a simple design consisting of two pieces of wood hinged together with a small spring or metal wire.

‘Evil to washerwomen’ and men

The modern design we know today, dates back an 1853 patent of a clothespin by Vermont’s David M. Smith.

ADS 2

According to his patent, dated October 25, 1853, the updated clothespins “are hinged together” by a wire “so that the two longer legs may be moved toward each other and at the same time move the shorter ones apart.”

The two wooden pieces are shaped in such a way that they form a clamp when squeezed together. This allows the clothespin to securely hold onto garments without causing damage. The spring mechanism ensures that the clothespin remains closed when in use, providing a reliable grip on the laundry even in windy conditions.

Smith details in the patent: “Another advantage and a very important one too, [what] my improved clothes pin possesses over the common pin is that it cannot be detached from the clothes by the wind as is the case with the common pin and which is a serious evil to washerwomen.”

Evolving pins

As industrialization progressed in the 19^th and early 20^th centuries, the manufacturing process for wooden clothespins became more mechanized. Wooden clothespin factories emerged, producing large quantities of standardized clothespins at a faster rate and lower cost. This made wooden clothespins more accessible to a broader range of households, contributing to their widespread use as a laundry tool.

Throughout the 20^th century, wooden clothespins remained a staple in households worldwide, despite the introduction of alternative materials such as plastic. Their simplicity, durability, and affordability made them a preferred choice for hanging laundry, particularly for those without access to modern drying technologies.

Today, wooden clothespins continue to be produced and used in households around the world, either for crafts or clothes drying, and are cherished for their nostalgic appeal and eco-friendly properties.

While plastic clothespins have become more prevalent in some regions due to their lower cost and mass production, wooden clothespins remain a symbol of traditional laundry practices and sustainable living.

In a moment both tender and mysterious, a Kentucky mother is sharing what she believes to be a direct blessing from above.

During her 32-week ultrasound, Amanda Foster, now 33 and eight months along, spotted what appears to be a large hand resting gently on her baby’s head—an image that has since gone viral and been described as nothing less than “a miracle.”

Amanda and her husband, Kyle, are expecting a baby boy—but this pregnancy has been shadowed by fear. Early scans revealed a potentially life-threatening defect in the wall separating parts of their son’s heart near the aorta. ” At every check-up, I prayed for God to place His hand over my baby,” Amanda said, her voice filled with emotion and gratitude. The scan seemed to answer her prayer in a way she never expected.

The ultrasound image, shared widely on social media, sparked debates. Many faithful viewers called it “amazing,” others a “miracle.” Skeptics suggested a simpler explanation—that the “hand” was really the baby’s own limb distorted in the scan. But to the Fosters, the message is clear: this is a divine sign of protection following the earlier scare.

“The specialist follow-up found no trace of the defect,” Amanda shared on Facebook. “We prayed with so many people—and the problem vanished.” Overwhelmed with gratitude, she confesses, “Now I pray before every check-up.”

This isn’t the first time Amanda has experienced life-changing loss. She was just 17 when she lost her first son to Potter’s syndrome—a rare fetal disorder caused by missing or underdeveloped kidneys that leads to fatal complications. “I told myself that if God was going to take my baby, He might as well take me, too,” she recalls through tears.

Devastated and angry, Amanda questioned her faith. Medical professionals even told her it would be unlikely for her to ever carry a healthy baby boy. Despite the heartbreak, she did give birth to two healthy daughters, but felt lost. “I never doubted God existed, but I wanted nothing to do with Him,” she says. “My life became chaotic, miserable, utterly broken.”

In September 2021, Amanda found her grounding again—this time in renewed faith. “I was tired, beaten down, and I handed my life over to Jesus Christ,” she says. That November, she became pregnant—this time with a healthy baby boy, now nearly three years old.

“This pregnancy is our miracle continued,” Amanda beams. Daughter Bailey accompanied her to the ultrasound appointment earlier this month, and was the first to exclaim, “Mom, look at the hand!”

“The image brought me to tears of gratitude,” Amanda says, recalling the moment. “I’m beyond grateful for everything God has done—and continues to do—for our family,” she said.

The ultrasound artifact may be open to interpretation, but for the Fosters, it’s a visible sign of grace. What skeptics see as a scanning quirk, Amanda and Kyle see as evidence of His unmistakable touch, a blessing to carry with them into the next chapter of their lives.
