A very nice afternoon to all family and friends out there in the wonderful land of e-mails. Weather report: snow, followed by two days of rain- no more snow and the last three days have been sprinkles, light snow and hard rain. Yesterday was quite nice after noon and the fog lifted. We get a lot of lake fog here when the temperatures stays between 30 degrees and less. This mornings fog is now gone at 3 p.m. and new snow due tomorrow. So much for our semi-official Moose Pass Community weather report- send in 10 cents.
Little House update: Patrick and Canaan, along with any volunteers they can drag off the highway, continues. Good thing I am a retired Police Officer, I can almost always keep them from being arrested for a misunderstood kidnapping. A bit tough once, but we were covered by the "Coming in for Coffee Amendment", but I did have to hide the rope I had used on the guy's ankle. What a whiner! He got his coffee, and some cookies too. I am sure some kind of civil complaint will be made with the Better Business Bureau, but the house will be done by then. The kids were able to swing the funds to purchase the electrical boxes and I think the insulation will be covered. Next to come is the sheet rock and building the receiving field for the saw-dust compost thingee. Then I have to explain to the Department of Environmental Control as to why all this black water is running into the lake. I don't think they'll notice it for a few years and by then I'll be too senile to stand charges. It will be nice for the kids to have their own beds, living room and no longer have to drop a quarter into my jar for the usage of profane words in my house. I let the baby get away with it simply because I don't speak baby. Yes, I'm a hard nose, but I doubt if I see any of my family or friends running up to stand with me before the Judgement Seat. "Awe, God, he was a bit crazy these last 20 or so years, can you give him a break? Oh no, I'm all solo on that trip and my back hurts if I have to shovel coal for the next 10-million years. Not sure how I got started on this downward spiral, but you had nothing else to do when you foolishly opened this site. Right? And I did warn you last month and the following story might catch your eye, your thoughts or upset your stomach:
Restoring Liberty On-Line: Now this is a site done by the Alaskan Politician Joe Miller, who would like to see himself as Alaskan Governor and very possibly one of our next Presidents. He uses his site to "Promote the Cause of Liberty, Defending the Constitution and the Bill of Rights." Now that will make you a domestic terrorist right there. (Note, I am not a Joe Miller supporter and never have been, but his site will occasionally carry an interesting story now and then. Such as, " 70 plus kids missing from state foster care and no one's stopping it. An Oct 16, 2017 story by Jay Syrmopoulos - reports, out of Kansas For Children and Families (DCF), which overseas foster care for the State of Kansas ( The other 49-states all having something similar to the DCF), and foster care contractors that the state utilizes to place foster kids and oversee their direct placement with foster homes. 70+ kids are now missing. Information provided as part of a response to questions related to this case, which involved the disappearance of 3 missing sisters, ages of 12,14, and 15- who went missing in August. Police "believe they ran away". One contractor reported the missing of 38 kids, while a second contractor reported 36, for a total of 74 missing children. ( Now are they just missing, like the records seem to say, or have they fallen prey to predators, for any number of nefarious reasons, and did all these kids go missing in one months, or two or maybe longer and it went unreported because the contractor didn't want to lose their license, which pays quiet well. One kid can be worth more than $1,000 a month, while a foster-family is being looked for, while other becomes involved in the drug trade as runners, or in the sexual market for....we'll leave that alone. ( But, just how many of these foster kids are indeed missing within all 50-states and is the FBI looking into. Some police say the kids just return home to be with their loving parents, but this is a very low percentage. The kids removed from homes were they were beaten, raped and handed out to friends in trade for drugs and booze, rarely want to return to this atmosphere. There is a problem here, but is it a low priority, maybe because these kids come from households with little money? No, someone needs to care, our state agencies should be made responsible to report to local, county and state officials on the number of cases involving our youth. Such info needs to be carried in the newspapers, to hold these contractors and the state office who selects these contractors. All the monies involved in this state program needs to be made accountable to John and Mary Q Citizen. And if we fail to step in and get involved, then we will be held in Judgement when the time comes to stand before the Last Day.
As a police officer I was involved in placing children in foster care programs, but mostly the emergency home who would only have a kid, or kids, for a short amount of time- until a long-term home was found. Here in Alaska, at least back in my day, we didn't contract our kids out. Numerous people were offering themselves to do "emergency holds," allowing the State some time, while making a search for the right foster family. Now these emergency homes could become long term, and for both services Alaska conducts a thorough investigation. Now, Up in Fairbanks, Mona and I became foster-parents for a 7-kid family group. We really enjoyed these kids and they each took a member of our family to attach themselves too. But, the real mother, who was serving a lengthy jail sentence for drugs and what she allowed to happen to her children- some real ghastly wounds, she demanded to have the kids be brought to Anchorage, so she could see them and the court allowed this. Their departure was not a happy one, for any of us. Believe me, you can see the torture they've gone through in their eyes. While physical wounds heal, the inner wounds can take a lifetime to heal. Sadly, when the kids got to Anchorage, no one was welling to take on 7-kids and the family was split up. The foster-care provider in Fairbanks kept us up-to-date for several months and by then the kids were living in different states. I'd like to have had a talk with the judge who made that decision to pull them from our home, see what he thought about his decision or if he ever received any follow-up reports. We left the program after this. Too much pain.
The Local News-Germany: Berlin now has "Nazi" neighborhoods.
China Globe: China- Latest J-20 stealth fighter is pressed into service, looks remarkably like the U.S. F-35 Stealth Fighter. ALSO- People's Liberation Army of China (PLA) announces its deepening trust with 28 countries, but this number also contains the 10-ASEAN Countries. ALSO- "Rwandan Parliament condemns Human Rights Watch report produced by US-based Human Rights Group, saying the report is aimed at 'discrediting the country (Rwandan). ALSO- Nearly 590,000 Rohingya refugees from Myanmar are now in Bangladesh and among them are a reported 320,000 children. UN fears children threatened by water-borne diseases in their "desperate living conditions." ALSO- U.S. could call back as many as 1,000 retired pilots to active duty amid an "acute shortage" of combat pilots. ( I can see the term, "Hey Gramps, can you fly something without props?"
Manila Times: The Japanese Emperor is now set to abdicate his thrown March, 2019.
Russian Herald: A Russian report was released stating "about 500 children committed suicide in 2013. (Now why would it take so long to put this report together? ALSO President Putin's salary has grown threefold since taking his office. ALSO- The Netherlands, following other NATO countries, have suspended military cooperation with Russia. (Will NATO be strong enough to defend themselves from Russian invasion?)
Thailand Times: Thailand enters "War on Sugar", by imposing a new tax on sweetened beverages.
Egypt News Service: Members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community are now living in fear, as the Egyptian Government conducts a crackdown on all LGBT, where there has been a major spike in arrests,
ASIA Times: Report released that North Korea is building an "unknown ship" at their key shipyard. ALSO- the scars of "Apartheid" in 1983, now raring its ugly head in the Country of China. Instead of Blacks and Whites, it is now members of the Chinese Communist Party and non-members, who are now not being recognized for a fair say in who governs them. Will they be allowed to vote? It seems they will lose that right, and many others. Some of the people say this is a ploy by the Communist Party members to force the other Chinese who believe in Christianity and other religions to leave this behind and become the Communist Party members. Of course, like the Apartheid of South Africa, this will mean non-members of the party will not be chosen for the better jobs, even if they qualify with their education and experience.
Russian Expatica News: U.S> pushes for extension of the Syria Gas Attack Probe. U.S. Ambassador told the Security Council that it must "act now" to extend the investigation of the chemical weapons attack. But this move could be vetoed by Russia.
Der Spiegel (Germany)News Magazine: Report that "NATO ill-prepared for a Russian attack"..."NATO would be incapable of rebuffing an attack by Russia on its Eastern Flank." (NATO whole eastern border now faces Russian troops, or from their allies. I believe England and the US would have to use their land forces to help push the Russian armor back out of Europe. By then, the war is bound to go nuclear and we all lose.) (Incidentally, I wrote the book on this occurring- soon to be released as the "Fire & Ice series.)
American Patriot Daily: Is now reporting that some of the Democrats in Congress have proposed new FEC Rules that would make it illegal to share Facebook articles the US Government deems as "Fake News".
Heritage Foundation released a report showing how the US Military is not able to defend the national interests like it should be able to. ( This is somewhat true, because we rely on our missiles, submarines and bombers, and not so much on our navies and ground troops. But, thanks to our former President, our ground power strength was reduced to under 500,000 soldiers. This number is also made up of techs, hospital workers, drivers, plane crews to get the birds in the air, engineers...our numbers of combat troops is closer to half that number. We couldn't take on Canada, unless we decided to nuke or friendly neighbors. Personally, I believe our current load of combat troops in the desert countries has been elevated, is to have a sizable force over there if NATO needed some help against Russia.
Iran Herald: Russia has accused the US of war crimes for the Bombing of Aleppo, for the 2nd year. But, Russia has been previously accused of the same crime in its own attacks on Aleppo. ALSO- Australia, has joined Saudi Arabia and China on the Human Rights Council for the United Nations.
Washington Free Beacon: The Feds spend $174,792 for taking the pictures of food. (It's not that they pay any money out for human actors, were only talking about breads, veggies, fruits and dairy, pastries and meat. ( Former President Carter and I would rather see the sport players stand for the National Anthem. Take notice, this is the only time I would want my name listed beside him.)
Jerusalem Online: US reportedly has sent (12) Air Force F-35's to Japan. ALSO: US has reportedly sent a second Navy Aircraft Carrier into the Pacific Ocean.
Washington Free Beacon: U.S. Park Service has canceled its funding for rejecting of the "Honorable Legacy" of the Black Panther Party.
Gatestone Institute News: "It is estimated that there are about 50-different militias (Palestinian) operating in the Gaza Strip. These combined militias are said to be in possession of about one million pieces of weaponry."
Jerusalem On Line: Saudi Arabia announces it will now allow female spectators into its sport arenas.
Gatestone News: Story by Soeren Kern- France enacts new law: "Anti-Terrorism Law" which authorizes law enforcement authorities & Prefects to order the closure the closure of places used for the purposes of worship, for up to 6 months, if the preacher or preachers are deemed to express "Ideas or Theories" that indicate " "That Incite Violence, Hatred or discrimination, Provokes the Communicate of Acts of Terrorism, or Express Praise for such Acts" to be arrested and their homes searched, even if the offender is placed under House Arrest. ALSO- "Turkey: Erdogan's Stalinist's" Story by Giulio Meotti - "Turkey's Erdogan is following the Soviet Stalinist Method of burying the books, often along with their authors. Turkey is purging its culture. After the failed coup of 2016, President Erdogan fired 21,000 teachers and 1,577 University Deans. Meanwhile, several left-wing writers have been arrested, while others are on trial (No charge listed in the story). This purge is very similar to what Premiere Mao did in China, when hundreds of thousands of teachers, deans, musicians, scientists and technicians, not needed by the military, and learned men and women were all murdered and all their written material burned ALSO-
Chinese President Xi Jin Ping informed the 19th Congress of the ruling Communist Party that the People's Republic was now ready to seek a more active presence in the international arena. ( There are some people who feel this could lead to an act of war against Taiwan.)
Gatestone News: "Germany: Violence in Refugee Shelters". German authorities have justified their failure to inform the public about scale of the problem by citing Privacy Rights of criminal offenders. One maintenance man, who works in the shelters reports "mafia-like" conditions, where refugees are required payment to use the electrical sockets. Reports then appeared, showing murder, rape and physical assaults said to be running rampant in the German Asylum Shelter. A report by Markus Ulbig, Interior Minister of Saxony, where more than 40,000 migrants are held in these shelters, reports in his 2016 statement of facts, which showed (10) Murders and Attempted Murders, (960) Assaults, with (671) of those assaults being for grievous bodily injuries, (7) Rapes, (10) Sexual Assaults of children and (268) cases of drug trafficking. Also cited with hundreds of cases for Theft, Coercion, Arson, Brawling and attacks on police officers. (Germany has lost control of their shelters and probably should move their military in to take that control back. On another issue, what will happen to Germany when Russia attacks? What will all these thousands of people do? Are they plants for Russia, or will they fight alongside the Germans. There is enough refugees in Germany to rise up and fight for the control of Germany, Is Russia holding off, waiting to see this. A lot of questions and no answers. I do know from experience, it is extremely hard to point your rifle at kids and women. But neither of them display that same reluctance toward us, they were simply raised different.
I had a whole lot more stories, but most of these have reached print in the main papers and magazines. I often wonder why it takes so long for a story to reach print, but if it does I am no longer interested in adding it here. My goal is to send out stories you will most unlikely read. But again, some of the sites I read are propaganda and you will have to filter that yourself. The China Globe provides me with a lot of info from around the word, so does the Russian Herald. But, I get some of my best info from Gatestone News, The White House- for my most up to date Executive Orders and long past events. From this I found the Executive Orders by President Franklin Roosevelt, who die before he could throw them out after WWII. A Secretary of Obama found these and new orders were created that could take a lot of our rights away. I look into the Vatican News for up to date affairs and the United Nations for all kinds of stories. Washington Free Beacon is a watch dog paper for the feds, while the Jerusalem Online provides me with current affairs in Israel. The various Telegraph News sites, most different only by the country. Then I have BBC, New Zealand Star, Thailand News, Egypt News, Manila Times, Taipei Times and a few sites I will not mention here, unless I use them.
You know, when I began this MPJ, I had not planned to add all these news stories. Or realized how many long hours I would end up spending in doing my research. But now I enjoy it....mostly. I also use it to clear my thoughts before I begin working on the current story.
Anyway, I wish the best to all of you. May this evening find you healthy, blessed and loved...at least one of those, or maybe all three. Two out of three is great in my book. God Bless your night's sleep and have a great day tomorrow. BILL
