  Daisy DeVoe has left her abusive husband, her father has been pinched for bootlegging, and she’s embarrassed by her rural Kentucky roots. But on the plus side, she’s climbing the ladder in the salon of Paramount Pictures, styling hair for actress Clara Bow. 
  Clara is a handful. The “It” Girl of the Jazz Age personifies the new woman of the 1920s onscreen, smoking, drinking bootleg hooch, and bursting with sex appeal. But her conduct off the set is even more scandalous. Hoping to impose a little order on Clara’s chaotic life, Paramount persuades Daisy to sign on as Clara’s personal secretary. 
  Thanks to Daisy, Clara's bank account is soon flush with cash. And thanks to Clara, Daisy can finally shake off her embarrassing past and achieve respectability for herself and her family. 
  The trouble begins when Clara’s newest fiancé, cowboy star Rex Bell, wants to take over, and he and Daisy battle for control. Torn between her loyalty to Clara and her love for her family, Daisy has to make a difficult choice when she ends up in the county jail. 
  Here, Daisy sets the record straight, from her poverty-striken childhood to her failed marriage; from a father in San Quentin to her rollercoaster time with Clara, leaving out none of the juicy details.

  Oswald Is Innocent - Mark Lane's...

  In the turbulent aftermath of President John F. Kennedy's assassination on November 22, 1963, a maelstrom of theories and speculations emerged to unravel the enigma surrounding the tragic event. Amidst the cacophony of voices, Mark Lane emerged as a distinct figure, a staunch advocate for a meticulous investigation into the circumstances surrounding the murder and, more importantly, the accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. 
   
  Mark Lane, an attorney by profession, stepped into the spotlight with his fervent belief that the official narrative of Oswald acting alone in assassinating President Kennedy was not only flawed but perhaps deliberately misleading. Lane embarked on a relentless quest for truth, armed with skepticism and an unwavering commitment to uncovering the intricacies of the case. In his investigation, Lane meticulously dissected the evidence presented by the Warren Commission, the body tasked with examining the assassination. He scrutinized witness testimonies, ballistic reports, and the timeline of events leading up to that fateful day in Dallas. Lane's scrutiny revealed discrepancies and inconsistencies that fueled his suspicions and raised questions about the veracity of the official narrative. 
  One of Lane's primary contentions revolved around the "magic bullet" theory, a cornerstone of the Warren Commission's findings. He argued that the trajectory of the alleged single bullet, which purportedly caused multiple wounds to both President Kennedy and Texas Governor John Connally, was implausible. Lane's dissent echoed the sentiments of many skeptics who found it difficult to accept the official explanation of a lone gunman.
