Def Leppard’s “Photograph” holds #1 today in 1983 — reviving British rock in an era of Journey and REO Speedwagon.

“It was a rock ‘hybrid,’” Phil Collen said. “It was so melodic but the backing vocals & the vibe of it was still a rock band. It was STILL a British rock band. There is a difference.”

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.

Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country.

Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine.

Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.
