“New Russia” Separatist Flag Looks a Lot Like Another Famous Secessionist Flag
NOVOAZOVSK, Ukraine - Pro-Russian rebels conquering territory in eastern Ukraine are fighting under a new flag that betrays their - and perhaps the Kremlin’s - soaring ambitions.

Joy in the Journey

Follow your spirit
Early morning visit to chiropractor, felt so darn good after adjustment. Glorious sunny day, why not head south of the boarder? Spontaneity, sunshine and my love of America beckons me. Where am I going? Where spirit calls. A love affair of the heart. Take unfamiliar turns and end up temporarily 'los ...
