Vietnam confirmed 3,950 domestic Covid patients in 27 localities Saturday night, pushing the day's tally to a new high of 9,225 cases as the country's two biggest cities tightened restrictions. Of the night's tally, HCMC recorded 3,326 cases, followed by its neighbors Binh Duong (262), Dong Nai (99) and Ba Ria-Vung Tau (63).

The new form of revolution in the world is "color." Successful examples include the deposing of Gadhafi, or Mubarak, and a unsuccessful uprising against Bashar Assad in Syria. These "revolutions" exploit popular discontent and amplify it with social media, and militias. This strategy is now in war college. In a prominent Western Hemisphere example, Trump is a victim, albeit in a surrogate, watered down, FBI, CIA, NSA fashion, with this blizzard of orchestrated misinformation. In modern democracies, an engineered vote, is crucial to a coup. If the goal of the US, is to end communism in Cuba, step one is...

Abstract: Analysis of the mid-Victorian period in the U.K. reveals that life expectancy at age 5 was as good or better than exists today, and the incidence of degenerative disease was 10% of ours. Their levels of physical activity and hence calorific intakes were approximately twice ours. They had relatively little access to alcohol and tobacco; and due to their correspondingly high intake of fruits, whole grains, oily fish and vegetables, they consumed levels of micro- and phytonutrients at approximately ten times the levels considered normal today. This paper relates the nutritional status of the mid-Victorians to their freedom from...

For the servant (slave) of Christ (His soldier); all that he/she possesses is at the total disposal of Almighty God, to be used for His honor and glory here in time (Romans 12:1-5). Be not offended by what God wills, allows or uses in your life to further the Gospel message to a lost and dying world (Matt 11:6, Rom 8:28). Endure hardness as a good soldier (2 Tim 2:3-4). Sometimes the very thing in which we are seeking to preserve or save is to be on the chopping block and removed. Fret not my beloved, Almighty God is in...

Today is World Ivermectin Day. Here’s Australia’s Honorable MP Craig Kelly explaining to an essentially empty chamber the efficacy of Ivermectin (video starts at the 9 minute mark, but will likely not be available for long).Spoiler Alert: Ivermectin works so why can’t we get it readily from our doctor as a prophylactic and/or treatment for Covid? Might as well be putting the question to a cow’s butt.But(t) happy Caturday-Ivermectin Day anyway.Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

San Francisco elected officials struggling to deal with complaints about garbage piling up on the city’s sidewalks and streets have been waiting three years for a solution — only to get sticker shock when they heard the details this week. Addressing the problem requires a good trash can, but on Wednesday, a committee of the Board of Supervisors wrestled with how to replace many substandard bins when it learned that a batch of new, custom-made design prototypes will cost $12,000 to $20,000 apiece. When mass-produced, the cost per can will drop to an estimated $2,000 to $3,000. Still, supervisors balked...

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem Psalm 119ע Ayin 121 I have done what is righteous and just; do not leave me to my oppressors. 122 Ensure your servant’s well-being; do not let the arrogant oppress me. 123 My eyes fail, looking for your salvation, looking for your righteous promise. 124 Deal with your servant according to your love and teach me your decrees. 125 I am your servant; give me discernment that I may understand your statutes. 126 It is time for you to act, Lord; your law is being broken. 127 Because I love your commands more than...

The Black Rifle Coffee Company (BRCC) has been a rising star in the conservative constellation. It has been becoming a center for conservative networking and interaction. There appears to be an effort to stop the rise, at least at the New York Times. A recent New York Times (NYT) Magazine article (14 July) has painted the BRCC executives as, at minimum, moderates who despise their base but see them like sheep to be fleeced. Anything from the NYT is viewed with extreme suspicion by conservatives. There have been too many times where the NYT has lied, been slow or unwilling...

A new YouGov poll found the Tories on 38% - six points down from the previous week and just four points ahead of LabourBoris Johnson’s poll lead over Labour has collapsed to just four points, on the day he was supposed to be celebrating a triumphant two years in office. According to the Times, Mr Johnson was planning an event in Downing Street to mark his second year in Number 10 - and “freedom week”. Instead the Prime Minister remained in self-isolation in Chequers, after being exposed to Covid-19 in a face to face meeting with Health Secretary Sajid Javid...

Drone video captured the moment police fatally shot a 19-year-old man after he pointed a gun at an officer — a weapon that turned out to be a “real-looking” BB gun, authorities said. The man, Gerardo Martinez, 19, was fatally shot by Salinas Police Officer Mario Reyes on Friday night, Monterey County District Attorney Jeannine M. Pacioni said in a statement. On Monday, Monterey County district lawyer Jannin Pasioni updated the public about what happened before and after police officer Mario Reyes fired three rounds at Gerald Martinez. The office also released a deadly shooting drone footage included in this...

The political committee behind the effort is reportedly fueled by a single $500,000 donation from progressive billionaire George Soros. A 12-1 vote from the Minneapolis City Council pushed a petition drive to replace Minneapolis’ police force with a department of public safety on to the November ballot. The proposal will ask voters if they want to approve a plan to replace the police department with a new public safety department focused on a “comprehensive public safety approach” that would include police officers “if necessary to fulfill the department’s responsibilities.” A new political committee calling itself Yes 4 Minneapolis gathered 20,000...

Let us assume that the State of Israel is gone, not in some bloody fashion as reflected in the Hamas charter—"Israel will …continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it.” Instead, just assume Israel is no longer there----no occupation, no evictions, no hassles at the Temple Mount, no Israeli arrests, no wall, etc. This would surely be a Palestinian paradise, what the Palestinians have longed for seemingly forever. Now let’s go one step further, asking what that paradise would probably look like, how it would operate. Self-governance would no doubt bring the Palestinian people empowerment and an end to strife....

As vice president, Joe Biden kept a variety of private e-mail addresses from which he would sometimes forward and receive government correspondence, Hunter Biden’s laptop shows. “Robin Ware,” “Robert L. Peters” and “JRB ware” were three such pseudonyms on e-mails that mixed official and family business. In a four-week period in 2016, for instance, John Flynn, who worked in the Office of the Vice President, sent Joe his official daily schedule to his private e-mail address Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov and copied Hunter. There were 10 such e-mails copied to Hunter between May 18 and June 15, 2016. In one e-mail from Flynn...

A Philadelphia man allegedly stole 14 houses around the city using fraudulent deeds, according to the District Attorney’s Office. Tyree Burno, 42, has been arrested and charged with assuming ownership of homes located in West Oak Lane, Logan, Frankford, Cedar Brook, and Mt. Airy neighborhoods, either in his own name or using a series of fake names. Such fraud is fueled by a white-hot real estate market, said Assistant District Attorney Kimberly Esack, with the office’s Economic Crimes unit. “Oftentimes, the neighborhoods targeted are ones seen as up-and-coming, where gentrification is prevalent,” she said. The victims, often the elderly, may...

As an athlete, there are certain games that you never forget. Maybe it’s because of a play you made, the energy of the crowd, the stakes involved – or it could be something deeper. One of those games for me came in September of 2011, my senior year on the University of Arkansas football team. We were playing New Mexico, but that’s not why I remember it. We were commemorating the 10th anniversary of 9/11, and War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock had been transformed into a sea of red, white, and blue. Depending on the section you were in,...

Is the Supreme Court going to overrule Roe v. Wade? That's the question raised by a Mississippi abortion case soon to come before court. "The conclusion that abortion is a constitutional right has no basis in text, structure, history, or tradition, the attorney general of Mississippi, Lynn Fitch, writes in her brief. As the brief was being filed, I was outside a Planned Parenthood clinic in Manhattan, where I saw a young woman crying on a street corner after an abortion. Abortion hurts women and kills children. Shortly thereafter, another young woman walked out with a friend, who asked her...
