Current Mood: Dark, very, very dark.You might even say ‘fowl’I’m sure I’ll snap out of it later, as I generally do. But it is more difficult when all the facts tend to bear out your inner dread. Specifically, these two stories; the first was posted by Sarah Hoyt: Were the lockdowns the worst public health decision in 100 years?Which she posted with a question “Only 100 years?” and a comment - “But hey, it worked. They got to steal the election and take over our government” - followed by another question:“How long will you tolerate this?”The reality is we most...

PARMA, Ohio — Two men were killed in a shooting outside of Rookies Sports Bar and Grill in Parma early Saturday morning—one of whom was working as a security guard for the bar, according to the Parma Police Department. Around 2:13 a.m., officers were called to the bar located on Pearl Road for a report of a shooting. Once on scene, officers found two men, both with multiple gunshot wounds. Sean Acierno, 29, was walking through the parking lot of the bar when he was shot. He died as a result of his injuries, police said. Timoteo “Tim” Cruz, 27,...

March 16 2021 Saints Peter and Paul church, Muscat, Oman Lectionary 245First readingEzekiel 47:1-9,12 ©Wherever the water flows, it will bring life and healthThe angel brought me to the entrance of the Temple, where a stream came out from under the Temple threshold and flowed eastwards, since the Temple faced east. The water flowed from under the right side of the Temple, south of the altar. He took me out by the north gate and led me right round outside as far as the outer east gate where the water flowed out on the right-hand side. The man went to...

Have we turned into a surveillance society of the type that used to be common in the Soviet bloc? Both sides of my wife’s family were broken up during and right after World War II. As a result, she has family in both Poland and Croatia and has kept in close touch with both. We’ve sent our teenage sons to the month-long Polish Scout Camp where they teach the kids fieldcraft and basic survival skills. It isn’t basic training, but the kids build their own camps, prepare their own food, and get ready for another Russian or German invasion. My...

The purposeful dissemination of rancid fake news that ran the epidemic during the Trump Administration as the Democrat activists posing as “journalists” coordinated efforts with the Democrat Party’s never-ending coup d’état efforts have only continued to get worse and worse since Trump left office on January 20. Nazi-style propaganda outlets like the WaPo provide numerous examples of rank news-fakery every day of the week at this point in their desperate efforts to provide cover for the nation-killing policies of China Joe Biden.

There are some policies so clearly in the national interest that they have survived the hyperpartisanship of the presidential transition from Donald Trump to Joe Biden. An example was provided at the March 10 meeting of the World Trade Organization’s Council for Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. This may seem like a backwater venue, but the issue in question strikes at the core of present and future technological development. Some 100 “poor” countries led by South Africa are pushing for a waiver of intellectual property (IP) protection for vaccines that combat the COVID-19 pandemic. These countries lack the capability...

Miami Spring Break Video Shows Chocolate People Causing All Of The Problems! "Do you believe these people are afraid of cops?" --Tommy Sotomayor

The trendy Crave restaurant next to Jerusalem’s Mahaneh Yehuda market has been unable to save its own bacon, after Jerusalem Chief Rabbi Shlomo Amar said the word is unkosher and prohibited the establishment from using the term on its menu. Crave, which has had a kashrut license from the Jerusalem Rabbinate ever since it was established, has for several years offered “lamb bacon” on its menu as a topping on burgers and other dishes, as well as making it the hero in a dedicated BLT (bacon, lettuce and tomato) sandwich. Bacon is commonly thought to be solely a pork product...

So here I am drinking my coffee this morning. Just thinking about the America we all knew and loved. It's currently swirling the toilet bowl as a turd created by the dirty people we supposedly elected into office. Agreed that some are pretty decent bit as of late there's very few that are outspoken about the atrocities happening and the burning of our constitution. It seems to me that we all have become complacent. We have all had the incorrect assumption that our elections were free and fair. We have voted for reforms in our schools, doing so has ushered...

After a year now of dealing with the SARS-COV-2 virus, we have learned a great deal about the pandemic. The elusive goal has been to acquire herd immunity and have life go back to normal. However, our mainstream media and some governmental health authorities have ignored parts of the scientific picture that could help us understand herd immunity. They have placed excessive importance on vaccination as the only way to herd immunity. This is not entirely true. There is scientific data showing that we may be closer to herd immunity and the end of the pandemic than the media and...

PITTSBURGH — Easing COVID-19 restrictions presents another challenge for restaurants, especially as the weather gets better: covering shifts. Gov. Tom Wolf’s announcement of loosening the guidelines for businesses was certainly good news for bars and restaurants, as fewer restrictions means more customers. But finding those workers is proving to be more difficult than anyone could have anticipated. Stinky’s Bar and Grill in Lawrenceville has been advertising for a wide variety of positions, but co-owner Valerie Dowds said they are seeing a consistent theme among many of the people interested in the jobs. “They want to come in and interview, but...

It was all the rage a few years back. News outlets salivated at the videos and reports of citizens creating public disruptions in dining establishments when they would loudly -- sometimes physically -- disrupt Trump administration figures. The justification for this was the accused human rights abuses taking place with regards to the immigration policies being enforced, leading to accusations of kids being placed in cages, the creation of baby jails, and concentration camps for minors. The emotion was that anyone who was permitting these ‘atrocities’ should not be permitted to dine out in comfort. They should be challenged, and...

A new mother died Monday night of coronavirus in Hadera's Hillel Yaffe Medical Center, after spending a month hospitalized in serious condition. Her death followed a sudden deterioration in her condition. The baby was delivered several weeks ago, and is doing well.

A phenomenon never before seen in America, until now. Recently our team was invited to meet with 2020 election fraud investigators in downtown Austin. Our team, with some of the top criminal profiling talent in the country, was happy to attend. At the last minute, our new pals cancelled their meeting. Since we changed our schedules and lost those days, we decided to hold our own confab. Our team members were the lead builders of one of the world’s most sophisticated criminal profiling systems in use by law enforcement today. SNIP Sovereign crime means your government was a participant, active...

“These are the things you are to do: Speak the truth to one another, render true and perfect justice in your gates. And do not contrive evil against one another, and do not love perjury, because all those are things that I hate—declares the Lord.” These verses, from Zechariah 8:16–17, were discovered in a cave where Jewish refugees hid almost 1900 years ago. The verses, written on dozens of parchment fragments were discovered in a complex and challenging national-archaeological operation undertaken by the Israel Antiquities Authority on the cliffs of the Judean Desert, since 2017, in order to prevent antiquities...
