Remember that time in senior year of high school when you wore pajamas to class because you thought it made you quirky and nonconformist? It showed you were original without being too weird. It got you attention. You were cool with that attention -- yet, like most people, you probably...

If you love children, the thought of them joining in at yoga class might not distress you. However, when the “children” turn out to be fun-loving and wild puppies, the class might suffer some level of disruption. When this class turned into puppy yoga, there was plenty of laughter to go around. @oliveeeoil Ugh! #yoga #yogaclasses ♬ Club Penguin Pizza Parlor – Cozy Penguin The studio is ready, with the mats in rows on the floor. Class participants selected a mat and sat to await the beginning of class. When the class was ready to start, the surprise was sprung. A wild pack of corgi puppy cuteness entered the yoga studio and joined in. They created total and complete pandemonium as they wrestled, rolled around on one another, and stopped for random pets. Needless to say, the effectiveness of the yoga class suffered significantly. Any exercise advantages disappeared almost immediately. However, the laughter and fun of watching these carefree puppies prance around on the yoga mats was a great stress reliever. Image from TikTok. Animals have been used in yoga classes for a while. Goat yoga is always a fun activity, even if you don’t accomplish much yoga. The baby goats tend to practice their parkour moves on random people around the room. In a perfect world, the baby goats receive guidance from “trainers to interact with students in specific poses.” However, the world is not perfect. Some studios offer cat, puppy, goat, and bunny yoga sessions. Puppy yoga can take on a life of its own. Depending on the size and energy level of the animals, each session can present different challenges. One sure result is that there will be laughter, and with those laughs, participants will feel the release of stress that yoga alone can’t provide. Please share.

Garth Brooks’ career is a blueprint for country music superstardom, rooted in Oklahoma and elevated by an unrelenting drive that transformed the genre’s sound and reach. Growing up in Tulsa and Yukon, Brooks was surrounded by music from an early age, drawing inspiration from classic rock, country, and folk traditions. He attended Oklahoma State University, where he graduated with a degree in advertising, but his passion for performing remained undiminished. Brooks honed his craft in Oklahoma nightclubs, gradually building a repertoire that fused country with the energy and spectacle of arena rock. In 1987, Brooks made the pivotal decision to The post Complete List Of Garth Brooks Songs From A to Z appeared first on ClassicRockHistory.com.

The House of Representatives passed a rule to bring a massive 10-year budget framework—known as the one big, beautiful bll—to the floor, as Republican leadership attempts to send it to President Donald Trump’s desk for signature by Independence Day. The bill would extend Trump’s 2017 tax cuts and provide funding for border security and defense. The rule, which required only a simple majority in the House to pass, passed 219-213. Multiple Republicans initially voted no, but later switched their votes to a yes. “Largest Tax Cuts in History and a Booming Economy vs. Biggest Tax Increase in History, and a Failed Economy. What are the Republicans waiting for??? What are you trying to prove??? MAGA IS NOT HAPPY, AND IT’S COSTING YOU VOTES!!!” Trump posted on Truth Social. “FOR REPUBLICANS, THIS SHOULD BE AN EASY YES VOTE. RIDICULOUS!!!” Trump added in another post. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., decided to bring the bill to the floor a day after its passage in the Senate despite sharp criticism of it from House fiscal hawks, who argued that it must be amended in order to address Senate changes they saw as backsliding from conservative priorities. Centrist Republicans were also a worry, as Rep. David Valadao, R-Calif., had already threatened to vote against any Senate-designed bill that more aggressively restructured Medicaid than the House’s framework. The vote followed an entire day of congressional gridlock. Earlier Wednesday, it came to light that the House Rules Committee made an error in drafting a rule to bring the bill to the floor. Members of the Rules Committee neglected “to order the previous question” and restrict “intervening motions.”  More simply put, that means that if Republicans did not end up having the necessary votes when deciding on final passage, they would not be able to delay the vote. House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris, R-Md. (Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images) As House Rules Committee ranking member Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., explained Wednesday, that means the GOP leadership would not “have an escape hatch if they start it and realize they don’t have the votes.” This vote stayed open from 2:15 to 9:30 PM, when it was ultimately passed unanimously by Republicans—making it the longest recorded House vote ever. It was a day of uncertainty, as the House Freedom Caucus circulated a memo alleging that the Senate’s version of the bill “gutted House spending cuts and added new spending to the tune of more than $400 billion.” While the vote remained open, House leadership and White House staff spoke with House Freedom Caucus members who criticized the Senate’s version of the bill for its higher projected deficit levels. Shortly after 8 P.M. Eastern, Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., told reporters that he and his fellow Freedom Caucus members would not be voting on a rule that night. Norman ultimately voted “yes” on the rule. “We’re advising not to put the rule vote up tonight,” he said. “Don’t keep the staff there… Freedom Caucus isn’t going to vote tonight.” ?SPEAKER JOHNSON: "I might keep [the vote] open a little while…I've got a couple of folks that are actually off site right now." pic.twitter.com/88CHTsgGiq— Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) July 3, 2025 But shortly afterwards, Trump took to the social media platform X and called for a vote on the bill Wednesday night.  “It looks like the House is ready to vote tonight,” he said. “We had GREAT conversations all day, and the Republican House Majority is UNITED, for the Good of our Country, delivering the Biggest Tax Cuts in History and MASSIVE Growth.”  In an apparent attempt to call the holdouts’ bluff, leadership called the 9:30 vote on the rule. Watching as some Republicans initially voted against the rule, before several of them changing their vote, Vice President JD Vance wrote on X, “The Big Beautiful Bill gives the president the resources and the power to undo the Biden border invasion. It must pass.” Meanwhile, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who voted down the bill in the Senate, threw fuel on the fire by saying he would welcome a more fiscally conservative bill from the House.

U.S. Senator Mike Rounds (Credit: Youtube)Senator Mike Rounds, who supports the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Disclosure Act (UAPDA), recently gave an in-depth interview to Ross Coulthart of NewsNation. Rounds serves on five key Senate committees, including Appropriations, Armed Services, and Intelligence—putting him at the center of national security and classified defense matters. In the interview, Rounds discussed renewed efforts to pass the UAPDA as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), after it was blocked in previous years. “I’ve been informed that Senator Schumer would like to partner once again and that we would offer it again this year in the National Defense Authorization Act, which we’ll begin working on here in the next few weeks. The answer is yes, we intend to move forward once again,” Rounds confirmed. The UAPDA proposes a presidentially appointed commission to oversee the declassification of materials related to UFOs, or what the government now calls UAPs—Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. When asked why the bill includes the phrase “non-human intelligence,” Rounds was direct. “Our intent was to make sure that there wasn’t an assumption by folks who were following it that we were trying to hide anything,” he said. “Let’s just say, ‘look, if there’s any of that out there, then let’s disclose it.’” He clarified this wasn’t because he or Sen. Schumer had “a smoking gun,” but because they wanted transparency. If anything unusual exists, the goal is to collect it, review it for national security concerns, and release it when appropriate. Rounds expressed openness to working with the House to fine-tune the bill, especially if concerns arise about revealing sensitive U.S. or foreign weapons systems. He explained how secrecy had helped in the past—for example, stealth technology was deliberately kept under wraps for years to avoid giving away strategic advantages. “What we didn’t want to have happen was a demand for exposure on weapon systems… that might otherwise be… disclosed in an inappropriate way.” He added that some UAP sightings could actually be misidentified military craft. “There were some plans out there that allowed some of the stealth weapons to be unidentified for an extended period of time on purpose.” He emphasized that not all strange sightings point to aliens—some might be highly advanced human technology, either American or from adversaries. “The biggest concern I had was, is it ours or does it belong to somebody else on this earth? One of our adversaries, or is it really something that is out of this world?” Rounds said it’s not crazy to believe intelligent life might exist elsewhere in the universe, but such a discovery would be “one of the greatest announcements in the history of mankind.” Still, he added, “I really don’t believe that that is necessarily what’s happened here.” He also warned that some past UAP claims might have been used as cover for secret U.S. projects. “There may have been some overt attempts to actually create some thought that there were items of UFOs that we just couldn’t explain, and they were being used to actually hide some of the more advanced weapons systems,” Rounds said, citing the stealth bomber and high-altitude aircraft like the SR-71 Blackbird as examples. These aircraft often flew at altitudes and speeds that looked “out of this world” to the average observer, especially when seen briefly or unexpectedly—kind of like seeing a drone for the first time 20 years ago. He suggested that some recovered materials might even be misunderstood prototypes from stealth programs. “Some of those items that were recovered may very well have been part of the development of our stealth technology that we utilize today.” When asked about former Pentagon official Christopher Mellon’s statement that some UAPs appear to be “intelligently controlled vehicles exhibiting technological capabilities we do not understand and cannot replicate,” Rounds was cautious. “I think there is a probability that he could be correct. But what we don’t know is… it’s entirely possible that one part of our organization… does not know what another part… is doing.” He added, “I’ve seen some of the materials… and the individuals that I’ve talked to have shared that they do not have all the answers.” Despite his access to some of the highest levels of classified information, Rounds admits even he doesn’t know whether these sightings involve foreign powers, top-secret U.S. programs, or something else entirely. But Rounds’ message was clear: while some strange things are out there, it’s not always aliens. But it could be—and if so, the public deserves to know in a responsible way.
