a test of automatic rifle from air vehicle. small caliber ammo is cheap and very destructive.
i am a security analyst, and a volunteer.
i have spent many thousands of hours studying systems. i must consider width and blockage of paths, vehicle safety, access to fuel and water stations. but here 1 air cavalry vehicle stops and destroys a line of cars.(imagine the primitive people of the future doing that here. who are the police and the military? what guides them?)
i want to avoid death and suffering, by providing development support to all people. it does not "cost" any thing.
if every person has what they need to survive and protect themselves, it will be much harder for anyone to enslave us or kill us.
we will also have huge extra resources for amazing services!

The Lip-Grip is OUT! No MORE Lip-Grips..!!
Since I first went public about this destructive hold, on Bill Anderson's, Muskoka Blog, back in July 2006, I have noticed an increase in photos showing the use of the Lite-Touch™ hold, and far fewer images of the damaging Lip-Grip hold.
I don't know if my efforts have been the sole reason for this change. I would like to think I've had some positive effect. I credit people like Bill Anderson for spreading the word.
I also want to thank Dan Small, for having me on his radio show in June 2009, to help spread the word.
Over the last 4 years I've dropped the 'bomb' on a number of images, conversations and marketing claims, from Facebook, to major outdoor magazine online platforms.
So, maybe it's getting some traction. For the sake of the resource, I certainly hope so.
I you would like to display this banner w/ the link to the Radio Show interview on your site, in your blog, or forum, then just place this code on your page where you would like to have it seen.

Aftermath refers to what is left behind after an event, especially a destructive event, or an extinction. The artists in this exhibition work with ideas of organic life, nature, place, the body, and ritual. Some of the work in this exhibition explores the relationship between people and nature, and between what it means to be human and what it means to be animal. Others may relate to ritual and the body, to our physicality and our animal nature, suggesting that we are perhaps not so far removed from our animal origins as we often suppose, as attested to by recurrent myths of lycanthropy (werewolves), and true stories of feral children. Participating artists include Melika Bass, Sarah Belknap + Joseph Belknap, Gwynne Johnson, Jenny Kendler, Homa Shojaie and Amber Hawk Swanson. Aftermath runs November 4-December 2, 2011 with an opening reception on November 4th from 6-9pm.
About the Curators:
Aftermath (Nov) and Artifact (Dec) are co-curated by the husband-and-wife team of Jeriah Hildwine and Stephanie Burke. Jeriah (MFA 2007, MICA) is a painter, with an exhibition scheduled for February 2012 at Linda Warren Gallery; he also teaches at several colleges and art centers, and writes for Art Pulse, Art Talk Chicago, Bad at Sports and Chicago Art Magazine. Stephanie (MFA 2009, SAIC) makes work, teaches, writes for Bad at Sports, and is Editor-in-Chief of Art Talk Chicago. When not making, teaching, curating, looking at, or writing about art, they enjoy camping, target shooting, and spending time with their pet ball python, Snake.

The Dendrobium beetle (Stethopachys formosa) is one of the most destructive orchid pests. Fortunately, it has a taste for Dendrobium orchids only and rarely touches other genera. The native to Australia only beetle, has been observed in Northern NSW, Queensland and Northern Territory.

I needed a little air this afternoon (July 5, 2022) & I went to Frear Park in Troy, New York, USA for a short walk even though it was raining. About all I saw was Japanese Beetles munching leaves in the park. Did you know that they are an invasive species?

Hurricane Sandy (also unofficially known as "Superstorm Sandy") was the deadliest and most destructive hurricane of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season, as well as the second-costliest hurricane in United States history. Classified as the eighteenth named storm, tenth hurricane and second major hurricane of the year, Sandy was a Category 3 storm at its peak intensity when it made landfall in Cuba.[1] While it was a Category 2 storm off the coast of the Northeastern United States, the storm became the largest Atlantic hurricane on record (as measured by diameter, with winds spanning 1,100 miles (1,800 km)).[2][3] Estimates as of March 2014 assess damage to have been over $68 billion (2013 USD), a total surpassed only by Hurricane Katrina.[4] At least 286 people were killed along the path of the storm in seven countries.[5]
Sandy developed from a tropical wave in the western Caribbean Sea on October 22, quickly strengthened, and was upgraded to Tropical Storm Sandy six hours later. Sandy moved slowly northward toward the Greater Antilles and gradually intensified. On October 24, Sandy became a hurricane, made landfall near Kingston, Jamaica, re-emerged a few hours later into the Caribbean Sea and strengthened into a Category 2 hurricane. On October 25, Sandy hit Cuba as a Category 3 hurricane, then weakened to a Category 1 hurricane. Early on October 26, Sandy moved through the Bahamas.[6] On October 27, Sandy briefly weakened to a tropical storm and then restrengthened to a Category 1 hurricane. Early on October 29, Sandy curved north-northwest and then[7] moved ashore near Brigantine, New Jersey, just to the northeast of Atlantic City, as a post-tropical cyclone with hurricane-force winds.[1][8]
In Jamaica, winds left 70% of residents without electricity, blew roofs off buildings, killed one, and caused about $100 million (2012 USD) in damage. Sandy's outer bands brought flooding to Haiti, killing at least 54, causing food shortages, and leaving about 200,000 homeless; the hurricane also caused two deaths in the Dominican Republic. In Puerto Rico, one man was swept away by a swollen river. In Cuba, there was extensive coastal flooding and wind damage inland, destroying some 15,000 homes, killing 11, and causing $2 billion (2012 USD) in damage. Sandy caused two deaths and damage estimated at $700 million (2012 USD) in The Bahamas. In Canada, two were killed in Ontario and an estimated $100 million (2012 CAD) in damage was caused throughout Ontario and Quebec.[9]
In the United States, Hurricane Sandy affected 24 states, including the entire eastern seaboard from Florida to Maine and west across the Appalachian Mountains to Michigan and Wisconsin, with particularly severe damage in New Jersey and New York. Its storm surge hit New York City on October 29, flooding streets, tunnels and subway lines and cutting power in and around the city.[10][11] Damage in the United States amounted to $65 billion (2013 USD).[12]

I correctly forecast single costliest natural disaster ever world wide in great detail.
On the evening of June 15, 1896, the northeast coast of Hondo, the main island of Japan, was struck by a great earthquake wave (tsunami), which was more destructive of life and property than any earthquake convulsion of this century in that empire. The whole coastline of the San-Riku, the three provinces of Rikuzen, Rikuchu, and Rikuoku, from the island of Kinkwazan, 38° 20' north, northward for 175 miles, was laid waste by a great wave moving from the east and south, that varied in recorded height from 10 to 50 feet. A few survivors, who saw it advancing in the darkness, report its height as 80 to 100 feet. With a difference of but thirty minutes in time between the southern and northern points, it struck the San-Riku coast and in a trice obliterated towns and villages, killed 26,975 people out of the original population, and grievously wounded the 5,390 survivors. It washed away and wrecked 9,313 houses, stranded some 300 larger craft—steamers, schooners, and junks—and crushed or carried away 10,000 fishing boats, destroying property to the value of six million yen. Thousands of acres of arable land were turned to wastes, projecting rocks offshore were broken, overturned, or moved hundreds of yards, shallows and bars were formed, and in some localities the entire shoreline was changed.
They were all seafaring communities along this coast strip and the fisheries were the chief industry. The shipment of sea products to the great ports was the main connection with the outer world. A high mountain range bars communication with the trunk railway line of the island, and this picturesque, fiord-cut coast is so remote and so isolated that only two foreigners had been seen in the region in ten years, with the exception of the French mission priest, Father Raspail, who lost his life in the flood. With telegraph offices, instruments, and operators carried away, word came slowly to Tokyo, and with 50 to 100 miles of mountain roads between the nearest railway station and the seacoast aid was long in reaching the wretched survivors. When adequate idea of the calamity reached the capital and the cities, men-of-war, soldiers, sappers, surgeons, and nurses were quickly dispatched, and public sympathy found expression in contributions through the different newspapers, amounting to more than 250,000 yen, for the relief of the injured. The Japanese journalist and photographer were quickly on their way, and the vernacular press soon fed the public full of horrors, yet the first to reach the scene of the disaster was an American missionary, the Rev. Rothesay Miller, who made the usual three days' trip over the mountains in less than a day and a half on his American bicycle.
There were old traditions of such earthquake waves on this coast, one of two centuries ago doing some damage, and a tsunami of forty years ago and a lesser one of 1892 flooding the streets of Kamaishi and driving people to upper floors and the roofs of their houses. The barometer gave no warning, no indication of any unusual conditions on June 15, and the occurrence of thirteen light earthquake shocks during the day excited no comment. Rain had fallen in the morning and afternoon, and with a temperature of 80° to 90° the damp atmosphere was very oppressive. The villagers on that remote coast adhered to the old calendar in observing their local fêtes and holidays, and on that fifth day of the fifth moon had been celebrating the Girls' Festival. Rain had driven them indoors with the darkness, and nearly all were in their houses at eight o'clock, when, with a rumbling as of heavy cannonading out at sea, a roar, and the crash and crackling of timbers, they were suddenly engulfed in the swirling waters. Only a few survivors on all that length of coast saw the advancing wave, one of them telling that the water first receded some 600 yards from ghastly white sands and then the Wave stood like a black wall 80 feet in height, with phosphorescent lights gleaming along its crest. Others, hearing a distant roar, saw a dark shadow seaward and ran to high ground, crying "Tsunami! tsunami!" Some who ran to the upper stories of their houses for safety were drowned, crushed, or imprisoned there, only a few breaking through the roofs or escaping after the water subsided.
Shallow water and outlying islands broke the force of the wave in some places, and in long, narrow inlets or fiords the giant roller was broken into two, three, and even six waves, that crashed upon the shore in succession. Ships and junks were carried one and two miles inland, left on hilltops, treetops, and in the midst of fields uninjured or mixed up with the ruins of houses, the rest engulfed or swept seaward. Where the wave entered a fiord or bay it bore everything along to the head of the ravine or valley and left the mass of debris in a heap at the end. Where the coast was low and faced the open ocean the wave washed in and, retreating, carried everything back with it. Many survivors, swept away by the waters, were cast ashore on outlying islands, or seized bits of wreckage and kept afloat. On the open coast the wave came and withdrew within five minutes, while in long inlets the waters boiled and surged for nearly a half hour before subsiding. The best swimmers were helpless in the first swirl of water, and nearly all the bodies recovered were frightfully battered and mutilated, rolled over and driven against rocks, struck by and crushed between timbers. The force of the wave cut down groves of large pine trees to short stumps, snapped thick granite posts of temple gates and carried the stone cross-beams 309 yards away. Many people were lost through running back to save others or to save their valuables.
One loyal schoolmaster carried the emperor's portrait to a place of safety before seeking out his own family. A half-demented soldier, retired since the late war and continually brooding on a possible attack by the enemy, became convinced that the first cannonading sound was from a hostile fleet, and, seizing his sword, ran down to the beach to meet the foe. One village officer, mistaking the sound of crashing timbers for crackling flames, ran to high ground to see where the fire was, and thus saved his life. Another village officer, living on the edge of a hill, heard the crash and slid his screens open to look upon foaming waters nearly level with his veranda. In a moment the waters disappeared, leaving a black, empty level where the populous village had been a few minutes before. Four women clung to one man, seeking to escape to high ground, and their combined weight resisting the force of the receding wave they were all saved. The only survivors of another village were eight men who had been playing the game of "go" in a hillside temple. Eight children floated away and left on high ground were believed to be the only survivors of one village, until one hundred people were found who had been borne across and stranded on the opposite shores of their bay. One hundred and fifty people were found cast away on one island offshore. From two large villages on one bay only thirty young men survived, hardy, muscular young fishermen and powerful swimmers, yet in other places the strongest perished, and the aged and infirm, cripples, and tiny children were miraculously preserved. The wave flooded the cells of Okachi prison and the jailers broke the bolts and let the 195 convicts free. Only two convicts attempted to escape, the others waiting in good order until marched to the high ground by their keepers. The good Père Raspail had just reached Kamaishi from his all-day walk of 50 miles over the mountains and entered his inn, when his assistant called to him from the street. The priest came to the veranda, but in an instant the water was upon him. He was seen later, swimming, but evidently was struck by timbers or swept out to sea, as his body has not been recovered. Japanese men-of-war cruised for a week off Kamaishi, recovering bodies daily. The Japanese system of census enumeration is so complete and minute that the name of every person who lost his life was soon known, and the Official Gazette was able to state that out of a population of 6,529 at Kamaishi 4,985 were lost and 500 injured, while 953 dwellings and 867 warehouses and other structures were destroyed or carried away, and 176 ships carried inland or swept out and lost.
The survivors were so stunned with the appalling disaster that few could do anything for themselves or others. With houses, nets, and fishing-boats carried away and the fish retreating to further and deeper waters, starvation faced them, and, the great heat continuing while so many bodies were strewn along shore and imprisoned in ruins, the atmosphere fast became poisonous. The north-coast people are opposed to cremation and insisted on earth burial, which delayed the disposal of the dead and augmented the danger of pestilence. Disinfectants were sent in quantity, and the work of recovery and burial was so pressing that soldiers were put to it after all available coolies had been impressed. The Red Cross Society, with its hospitals and nurses, had difficulty in caring for all the wounded, the greater number of whom, besides requiring surgical aid, were suffering from pneumonia and internal inflammations consequent upon their long exposure in wet clothing without shelter and from the brine, fish oil, and sand breathed in and swallowed while in the first tumult of waters. Besides the generous relief fund subscribed by the people, the government has made large assignments from its available funds and sent stores of provisions, clothing, tools, etc., to the 60,000 homeless, ruined, bereaved, and starving people of the San-Riku coast.
The wave was plainly felt two hours later on the shores of the island of Yesso, 200 miles north of the center of disturbance on the San-Riku coast, the water advancing 80 feet beyond high-tide mark on the beach at Hakodate. Eight hours later there was a great disturbance of the waters on the shores of the Bonin islands, more than 700 miles southward, the water rising three or four feet and retreating violently. Six hours later, on the shores of Kaui, the most northern of the Hawaiian islands, distant 3,390 miles, the waters receded violently and washed on shore in a wave some inches above the normal height.
The plainest inference has been that the great wave was the result of an eruption, explosion, or other disturbance in the bed of the sea, 500 or 600 miles off the San-Riku coast. The most popular theory is that it resulted from the caving-in of some part of the wall or bed of the great "Tuscarora Deep," one of the greatest depressions of the ocean bed in the world, discovered in 1874 by the present Rear-Admiral Belknap, U. S. N., while in command of the U. S. S. Tuscarora, engaged in deep-sea surveys.
The "Tuscarora Deep" is nearly five and one-third statute miles in depth, being exceeded, so far as known, only by the still more profound depths discovered last year in the South Pacific by Commander A. F. Balfour, of the British Navy.
That disturbances were taking place in this tremendous abyss was again suggested at six o'clock on the morning of July 4, when the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's mail steamer Empress of Japan, sailing directly over it in a smooth sea, was shaken as if a propeller blade had been lost or the ship had struck an obstruction. Every one was roused by the peculiar shock, but no visible explanation was furnished. The destructive wave and this incident together should stimulate further investigation of this dangerous, bottomless pit of the Pacific ocean, which owes its discovery to United States explorers by deep-sea soundings.

County town of Buckinghamshire, large and sprawling, with a destructive road system around which new brash buildings have arisen. We parked in a multistorey car park, on the third floor and travelled UP two floors to get out by walking over a bridge, through a huge recent shopping centre and out into a little oasis of streets in the old town where St Mary's church is sited, all on the same level as that fifth floor bridge.
Large and cruciform, mainly C13, grouped around a central tower with a picturesque recessed leaded clock stage with gothic open parapet and pinnacles, and short further recessed spire. The approach is to the south transept, the main entrance. Many trees make exteriors problematic. On entering there was a pervasive smell of coffee (although my friend got bacon!). The west end has a newish gallery and a dais with tables and chairs serving a cafe which is sited in the south-west corner of the south aisle and also fills the south porch. In this sea of pine boarding sits the Norman font; I was surprised that it didn't have a flat cover with "bar stools" around it. Olympic banners hang from the nave roof obstructing the view east, although the view was better from the gallery. Gorgeous west window by O'Connor. The north aisle has dome comfy armchairs and some medieval stalls ejected from elsewhere, and also a lovely baroque altar table among the clutter. The north transept has two good monuments, a cusped triangular recess with an alabaster knight, and a standing canopied monument with kneeling figures of mother and daughter complete with the original railings. Here too a Norman pillar piscina (not mentioned at all in the BofE) and a medieval cope chest. EE chancel, although east and south wall are entirely Victorian by the restorer Scott. There is an outer chapel east of the south transept (C14 with rich sedilia and a collection of memorials which seemed resited here) and an odd large square space to the west with a tall central wooden column supporting the roof. The inner south chapel has been converted into an office for a local charity which is based in the church, and has a stone screen filling the arch with a reset window.
I quite enjoyed my visit, if not the smell of stale coffee, apart from the awful staged cafe area at the west end and the poorly judged inclusion of the font here. However at least it was laid out as a church when I called, my friend recalled seeing badminton nets strewn across the nave on a previous visit. However it is obviously a well-used building, and an open one.

A highly disproportionate Government taxation is forced on purchasers of a singled out long time publicly sold legal product ? Tobacco users must now pay the equivalent of over 4 times the amount of Government sin tax on their product as do the users of alcohol pay on their product even though stats show that alcohol use ranks twice as much in cost to society due to substance use as does tobacco ? www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/52649460406/in/datepos...

A stifling, superfluous, unimaginable shocking Sin Tax on cigarettes ? The Maders street window in downtown Kentville is allowed to display Government gambling ads but not the product he's been selling for 50 years, and so he has instead revealed the huge Government Sin Tax currently being charged to the customer on his purchases of tobacco ? He was later ordered to take it down.. www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/9344935900
When legally purchasing a tobacco product you are now charged a Government Sin Tax at a proportional rate equivalent to over 4 times more to that charged on alcohol even though the alcohol product is far more destructive and far more costly to society ? The extreme bias and obvious discrimination against this one singled out legal product is the direct result of years of one-sided single product only Government lobbying by those who despise smoking but do not appear to have a problem with any of the other more harmful bad habits such as smoking marijuana, alcohol, junk food, obesity, or gambling ? Over the years there has been a lot of misinformation and gaslighting submitted by radical tobacco haters in order to stack their extremely biased arguments against one particular legally sold product that they don't like ? This single product lobby has resulted in a severe over-taxation now being levied on the unfortunate paying customer ? Does this extremely unfair Sin Tax situation caused by biased and unproven radical theories constitute a form of harassment and consumer fraud against an honest paying customer ? A Class action tax recovery suit and application for a fair share of the recent 24 billion dollar tobacco reclamation suit to be returned to the customer is being considered to compensate consumers for their financial loss due to extreme over taxation charges ? www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/52649460406/in/datepos...
August 16, 2023 - Unfortunately, cancer diagnosis rates are going way up in a new generation ?

May 13, 2024 - May 13, 2024 - Many Smokers have quit yet while the number of persons actually smoking keeps going down - cancer rates blamed on smokers keeps going up ? Monday's issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal says Cancer is still your leading cause of premature death in Canada. Stats Canada data says it has accounted for 25 per cent of the deaths in 2022, however more people than ever are now surviving. Researchers projected there will be 247,100 new cancer diagnoses and 88,100 cancer deaths in 2024, up from last year ?

For years now cancer societies have directed their central focus of blame for cancer mainly on the tobacco products ? And , in spite of the constant attack on this one singled out product, the incidence of cancer is on the rise among adults under 50 ? Has this barnstorming and concentrated fucused approach on one product strategy served to distract from or even prevent the discovery of what the real cause or causes might be ? If it isn't the smoking, then what is it and why aren't they getting warning labels on whatever it is ?

May 31, 2023 - Canada has created a brand new Cabinet position called Minister of health and Addictions and Carolyn Bennett has started off her new position with yet another attack on the tobacco industry by ordering that 50 additional new dire warning messages ( 25 in French and 25 in English) be placed on or within the cigarette packages that are already overcrowded by numerous dire warnings and graphic pictures ? This is interesting ? First they assist alcohol products by giving them a generous 4 times the sin tax break over the tobacco products, then they create legislation to legalize and to enable the smoking of cannabis, and, then they create more legislation enacting Bill C-218 to open up the flood gates of wide open at home and mobile phone sports parlor betting and casino gambling as never before seen or even imagined in Canada - And then, after all of this enabling assistance, they will then proceed to create a brand new Cabinet position called Minister of mental health and addictions, and her first order of business when assuming her new job is to once again target and single out tobacco products for yet another restriction ? ( while ignoring and not even mentioning the words sports gambling, marijuana or alcohol) ?

Ottawa May 31, 2023 - Canada makes history, (and the Guinness book of records) ? The Canadian Government has issued a brand new demand for 50 new dire warnings to be placed on or inside cigarette packages that are already 75% covered with multiple warnings and graphic images and must also be hidden away from all public view in drawers in stores ? Meanwhile the number 50 just also happens to be the same number as there are new at-home and on-line gambling las vegas style casinos and sports betting parlors that have just recently opened up for business in Canada since this same Liberal Government recently enacted their gambling enabling Bill C-218 ?

Lobbyists claim that 10's of thousands of Canadians die each year from smoking but strangely enough not one of the 10's of thousands of official death certificates posted will ever list or use the word 'smoking' as the official cause of that death ?

The Province of Nova Scotia publishes an official yearly Government financial statement showing tax revenue collected from all provincial sales of major sin taxed legal adult recreational products. The sin products they list are : alcohol ( NSLC sales ), tobacco, gambling (Atlantic lotto/casino), and now Cannabis (NSLC ) ? According to the numbers stated, and based on total number of products purchased, smokers appear to be paying 4 dollars tax into the coffers for every 1 tax dollar that the drinkers are paying in ? This is equivalent to 4 times more Provincial tax being charged to the smoker on his product of choice as is charged to the drinker of alcohol ? www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/52649460406/in/datepos...

'Why not just blame everything on smoking ? '
Stats Can, October 16, 2017 - The Conference Board of Canada says that although actual smokers have decreased in their numbers, deaths and health care costs attributed to smoking are still increasing dramatically ? They explain the reason for such a paradox may lie in the way they view their statistics that will include all sickness and negative health problems (and we assume this includes both physical and mental health ) incurred by the quitters over their lifetime until death, as well as those of all the part timers and those who had just tried it for a while ? And so, even if you don't smoke now but may have at one time or another, all negative personal health issues and problems incurred during your non-smoking natural life will be blamed on smoking and listed by them to be caused as a result of smoking ? And so, for example, If an ex smoker dies naturally at say age 80, his death and all of his lifetime sickness and negative medical issues even if a non smoker for 50 years are seen by them to have been caused by smoking ? www.cbc.ca/news/business/smoking-economic-cost-1.4357096
Desperate Lobbyists gaslight and stoop to playing the race card as they weaponize the common cigarette in order to intenstfy their anti tobacco arguments ? In nonsensical gaslighting they portray menthol cigarettes to be a weapon specifically designed, manufactured and distributed for a purpose of harming members of the black race in America ? As a direct result of such propaganda a previous long time freedom of choice and right of every adult has been taken away from them when menthol smokes were banned from sale in the USA similar to Canada ? read "How the tobacco industry targeted Black Americans with menthol smokes" www.npr.org/2022/04/29/1095291808/tobacco-industry-target...
Why do they always place such a high priority on just the smoking habit only and why do they hide and ignore the other bad habits ? Is it because some of those who occupy high profile political and social placements are in a position to make these decisions while exercising their own personal opinion on something they themselves hold strong negative feelings and personally detest ? Notice they never show a similar attitude when it comes to pot, gambling, obesity or alcohol ? It is noteworthy that in Countries where those in power do not hold such a personal grudge or a strong bias against a particular product, for example Turkey, that today's price for a store bought pack of Marlboro is $ 1.73 American ? www.thesun.co.uk/money/24653882/kings-speech-charles-rish...

Global news 2023 - Although the number of actual smokers has gone way down, Rob Cunningham's Canadian Cancer Society says deaths per year caused by these same smokers are way up ? They also claim that 1 in 3 cancer cases in Canada are still being caused by the smoking ? Given that in the last 10 years the actual number of smokers gas gone down by half, it was interesting when Cunningham and the Minister of Health said recently that in 2022 there were a whopping 46,000 deaths related to smoking ? This is 10,000 more or 30% more than 10 years ago when there only 36,000 deaths were reported even though there were twice as many smokers smoking ? Their figures don't make sense ?

What if they were to advertise a safe way to smoke cigarettes ? Sound ridiculous ? But is the idea of advertising 'safe' gambling not just another way to lure potential clients into the sports betting parlor and world of high stakes casino gambling ? Are these not gambling ads that serve to advertise, endorse and normalize gambling ?

May 25,2022 - The big gambling companies run ads targeting daytime TV viewers ?

Or, what if they were to spin the advertisement; You're 'good' if you drink or you're good if you smoke cigarettes or you're good if you smoke pot, but you're even 'great' if you safe drink or safe smoke cigarettes or safe smoke pot ? ref, "All those sports betting ads you're seeing,, It's illegal says the Alberta gaming commission ?" www.cbc.ca/player/play/2302654019728

Continual dissatisfaction seems to be a standard in the never ending, blinkers on, blind-sided, focused and targeted attack on one singled out product, but on the other hand they don't seem bothered at all and tend to hide, overlook and will never mention the incredible progress, innovation and expansion of other sin taxable legally sold public social habits (or vices) like alcohol, pot, gambling, etc etc. that, ( while under their watch ) are all now enjoying an unprecedented period of unimpeded growth, expansion, profit and phenomenal success ? www.cbc.ca/player/play/2302654019728

May 19, 2024, CBC Power & Politics - The notion that, "Smokers are creating long line ups at the Emergency" WHA-A-T ?? Most smokers I know are out there working hard and earning a living - not sitting around on chairs in Emergency Rooms waiting 8 hours to see a Doctor ?
Listen as Dr. Heather Morrison, P.E.I.'s Chief Public Health Officer has blamed smoking for the current problems in her troubled health care system and for the long wait times at Emergency ? She goes on to suggest that in order to contain this threat that a drastic solution is necessary and is suggesting that constitutional rights and freedoms guaranteed under a Constitution be removed from some citizens for the rest of their lives in order to protect PEI citizens ?
It is unfortunate here, that the Minister seems oblivious to and never mentions in the interview the real reasons for the current health care crisis that has not so much been caused by smokers but by an incredible lack of planning and foresight by her predecessors who had for years cut staff and slashed hospital budgets to the bone. There is also a surprisingly large influx of newcomers and foreigners incl students now moving unimpeded by Government into a small and unprepared Province creating shortages of Doctors and Nurses. And, what about the huge drain on the health system caused by the abuse of alcohol, social media abuse, gambling addictions, cannabis abuse, opioid and fentanyl hard drug use, mental illness and depression. And we mustn't forget all of those suffering from obesity, sugar diabetes, poor diet choices, lack of exercise and from the effects of overdoing fast food and junk food. There is also the victims of violence, be it domestic or other, and the increase in accidents caused by pot and alcohol impairment. And, we must also remember the ever growing number of elderly residents in our society needing attention and now living longer. And not to forget the hundreds of everyday visitors to the hospital suffering from the common everyday illnesses like colds, flu, cuts and bruises and Covi, as well as all of the soon to be Mothers requiring immediate attention or treatment ?

Newfoundland, June 3, 2024 - A proposal has been put forth to Newfoundlanders that as a way to get rid of a product that some people in Newfoundland don't approve of, that the Provincial Government be given permission to interrupt and override the current system of democracy and to deny longtime constitutional rights and freedoms guaranteed under a Charter to certain young Newfoundlanders without gaining their knowledge, attention, permission or consent ? Apparently under the new proposal the local Governance will be allowed to choose and pinpoint a particular publicly sold product and then force an absolute lifetime ban on this product on whomever they have chosen ? A lifetime probationary condition is to then remain permanently attached to these subjects for as long as they live ? To insure compliance to this lifetime of social control, these individuals will be tracked by personal monitoring systems that could in the future involve the use of ankle, bracelet or necklace monitoring devices working in tandem with Tobacconist cash registers, or could perhaps involve the use of an implanted sub-epidermal computer chip that has been programmed to track personal SIN numbers, birth dates and probationary status and capable of recording and instantly alerting authorities if the targeted subject ever breaks the law by violating his or her lifetime probationary status ?
It will always be a major concern when the installation of any such major, groundbreaking, first ever of its kind, freedom removing, undemocratic or totalitarian legislation may be being based on the opinions of heavily biased individuals, unproven facts, and made-up figures that are mostly hypothetical, over-exaggerated, out dated, and might even have been deliberately manipulated ? www.ctvnews.ca/canada/n-l-becomes-latest-province-to-eye-...

Thanks for viewing, and remember: It's always best not to smoke, gamble, drink alcohol, eat junk food, smoke marijuana, be obese or drink energy drinks, but if you happen to choose to indulge in any of these, remember although these are all legally sold products, they are also potentially harmful and addictive so best do it respectfully, carefully and in moderation.

To all parties left, right and in between: A sober message through song:
This is the Last Stop - The Dave Mattews Band from the album Before These Crowded Streets:
Fire
The Sun is well asleep
Moon is high above
Fire grows from the east
How is this
Hate so deep
Lead us all so blindly killing killing
Fools we are if hate’s the gate to peace
This is the stop
For raining tears
(Is) War
The only way to peace
(Well) I don’t fall for that
Raining Tears
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead, believe that you are the chosen one
Raining tears
You’re righteous, so righteous
You’re always so right,
Oh no
Gracious even God
Bloodied the cross
Your sins are washed enough
Mothers cry
“Is hate so deep
Must a baby’s bones this hungry fire feed?”
As smoke clouds roll in
The symphony of death
This is the last stop
Scream
Right is wrong now
Shut up you big lie
This black and White lie
You comb your hair to hide
Your lying eyes
You’re righteous, so righteous
You’re always so right,
But why your lie
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead, believe that you are the chosen one
This is the last stop
Here there’s more than is showing up
Hope that we can break it down
So it’s not so black and white
You’re righteous
You’re righteous
You’re righteous
You’re always so right,
There you are nailing a good tree
Then say forgive me, forgive me
Why
Raining tears
This is the last stop
Here there’s more than is showing up
Hope that we can break it down
So it’s not so black and white.

County town of Buckinghamshire, large and sprawling, with a destructive road system around which new brash buildings have arisen. We parked in a multistorey car park, on the third floor and travelled UP two floors to get out by walking over a bridge, through a huge recent shopping centre and out into a little oasis of streets in the old town where St Mary's church is sited, all on the same level as that fifth floor bridge.
Large and cruciform, mainly C13, grouped around a central tower with a picturesque recessed leaded clock stage with gothic open parapet and pinnacles, and short further recessed spire. The approach is to the south transept, the main entrance. Many trees make exteriors problematic. On entering there was a pervasive smell of coffee (although my friend got bacon!). The west end has a newish gallery and a dais with tables and chairs serving a cafe which is sited in the south-west corner of the south aisle and also fills the south porch. In this sea of pine boarding sits the Norman font; I was surprised that it didn't have a flat cover with "bar stools" around it. Olympic banners hang from the nave roof obstructing the view east, although the view was better from the gallery. Gorgeous west window by O'Connor. The north aisle has dome comfy armchairs and some medieval stalls ejected from elsewhere, and also a lovely baroque altar table among the clutter. The north transept has two good monuments, a cusped triangular recess with an alabaster knight, and a standing canopied monument with kneeling figures of mother and daughter complete with the original railings. Here too a Norman pillar piscina (not mentioned at all in the BofE) and a medieval cope chest. EE chancel, although east and south wall are entirely Victorian by the restorer Scott. There is an outer chapel east of the south transept (C14 with rich sedilia and a collection of memorials which seemed resited here) and an odd large square space to the west with a tall central wooden column supporting the roof. The inner south chapel has been converted into an office for a local charity which is based in the church, and has a stone screen filling the arch with a reset window.
I quite enjoyed my visit, if not the smell of stale coffee, apart from the awful staged cafe area at the west end and the poorly judged inclusion of the font here. However at least it was laid out as a church when I called, my friend recalled seeing badminton nets strewn across the nave on a previous visit. However it is obviously a well-used building, and an open one.

About my pictures:
Since 2014 I've been documenting the daily, destructive, poisonous chemtrail activity in the Dayton, Ohio area -- home of the notorious Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (visited by every important person on Earth, and even a few Aliens ;-) -- and apparently from my photo and video documentation, Chemtrail Central. This area has been getting chemtrailed on a massive, daily basis and is being conducted, as they say, “in plain sight”.
However, this area isn’t special in that regard. The massive chemtrailing is going on across the USA (and other countries), as evidenced in abundance on FlickR and many other sites. This incredible not-so-secret Government program, which itself is expensive and dangerous, spoils not only blue skies, but poisons our air, water and soil to unknown levels. Regardless of the purpose, weather control/weather as a weapon/mind control, it really amounts to a crime against humanity in my opinion.
In response, I have posted thousands of full-resolution images (15,000+!), documenting the overwhelming evidence of this crime on Flickr:
www.flickr.com/photos/133042043@N04/albums
I have additional Chemtrail videos posted on:

And to help generate interest, further study and assist in research, I am designating all my chemtrail pictures uploaded to Flickr (under “Chem Trailchaser”) as CC0 — Creative Commons Zero.
This removes my copyright and releases them into the Public Domain, which means that any of my photos designated CC0, can be used, without restriction or attribution, for any use. Isn’t that awesome?

I’ll always treasure the naïvety
Of the past we've shared.
Our bodies grew much faster than our minds,
But together we got good at stopping time.
My teen angst drove me to hurt myself,
And I made you watch;
Oh, the pain I must have caused,
But by staying around you saved my life (saved my life)
We were never meant to be lovers (ahh)
Just fellow late bloomers,
Who blossomed apart (ahh)
Who blossomed apart.
Watching my parents
Made me look for something destructive,
And there you were.
With all the characteristics of my mom;
Familiarity of home.
The geographic gap led to forced adulthood,
And your rage exposed.
I’m glad we left things when we did;
I doubt I’d survive another bloody nose (bloody nose)
We were never meant to be lovers (ahh)
We just mirrored each other’s self destructiveness (ahh)
Self destructiveness.
The spotlight burned in the room when we were together.
And we played our parts,
And I wore an imaginary TV screen,
So you never got to touch my heart (touch my heart)
We were never meant to be lovers (ahh)
Our egos fed off each other,
And died overweight (ahh)
And died overweight.
I thought I’d seen it all when you first walked in,
But you shut me up,
And challenged every wrong perception I’ve had of myself,
And you haven’t ever stopped.

I correctly forecast single costliest natural disaster ever world wide in great detail.
On the evening of June 15, 1896, the northeast coast of Hondo, the main island of Japan, was struck by a great earthquake wave (tsunami), which was more destructive of life and property than any earthquake convulsion of this century in that empire. The whole coastline of the San-Riku, the three provinces of Rikuzen, Rikuchu, and Rikuoku, from the island of Kinkwazan, 38° 20' north, northward for 175 miles, was laid waste by a great wave moving from the east and south, that varied in recorded height from 10 to 50 feet. A few survivors, who saw it advancing in the darkness, report its height as 80 to 100 feet. With a difference of but thirty minutes in time between the southern and northern points, it struck the San-Riku coast and in a trice obliterated towns and villages, killed 26,975 people out of the original population, and grievously wounded the 5,390 survivors. It washed away and wrecked 9,313 houses, stranded some 300 larger craft—steamers, schooners, and junks—and crushed or carried away 10,000 fishing boats, destroying property to the value of six million yen. Thousands of acres of arable land were turned to wastes, projecting rocks offshore were broken, overturned, or moved hundreds of yards, shallows and bars were formed, and in some localities the entire shoreline was changed.
They were all seafaring communities along this coast strip and the fisheries were the chief industry. The shipment of sea products to the great ports was the main connection with the outer world. A high mountain range bars communication with the trunk railway line of the island, and this picturesque, fiord-cut coast is so remote and so isolated that only two foreigners had been seen in the region in ten years, with the exception of the French mission priest, Father Raspail, who lost his life in the flood. With telegraph offices, instruments, and operators carried away, word came slowly to Tokyo, and with 50 to 100 miles of mountain roads between the nearest railway station and the seacoast aid was long in reaching the wretched survivors. When adequate idea of the calamity reached the capital and the cities, men-of-war, soldiers, sappers, surgeons, and nurses were quickly dispatched, and public sympathy found expression in contributions through the different newspapers, amounting to more than 250,000 yen, for the relief of the injured. The Japanese journalist and photographer were quickly on their way, and the vernacular press soon fed the public full of horrors, yet the first to reach the scene of the disaster was an American missionary, the Rev. Rothesay Miller, who made the usual three days' trip over the mountains in less than a day and a half on his American bicycle.
There were old traditions of such earthquake waves on this coast, one of two centuries ago doing some damage, and a tsunami of forty years ago and a lesser one of 1892 flooding the streets of Kamaishi and driving people to upper floors and the roofs of their houses. The barometer gave no warning, no indication of any unusual conditions on June 15, and the occurrence of thirteen light earthquake shocks during the day excited no comment. Rain had fallen in the morning and afternoon, and with a temperature of 80° to 90° the damp atmosphere was very oppressive. The villagers on that remote coast adhered to the old calendar in observing their local fêtes and holidays, and on that fifth day of the fifth moon had been celebrating the Girls' Festival. Rain had driven them indoors with the darkness, and nearly all were in their houses at eight o'clock, when, with a rumbling as of heavy cannonading out at sea, a roar, and the crash and crackling of timbers, they were suddenly engulfed in the swirling waters. Only a few survivors on all that length of coast saw the advancing wave, one of them telling that the water first receded some 600 yards from ghastly white sands and then the Wave stood like a black wall 80 feet in height, with phosphorescent lights gleaming along its crest. Others, hearing a distant roar, saw a dark shadow seaward and ran to high ground, crying "Tsunami! tsunami!" Some who ran to the upper stories of their houses for safety were drowned, crushed, or imprisoned there, only a few breaking through the roofs or escaping after the water subsided.
Shallow water and outlying islands broke the force of the wave in some places, and in long, narrow inlets or fiords the giant roller was broken into two, three, and even six waves, that crashed upon the shore in succession. Ships and junks were carried one and two miles inland, left on hilltops, treetops, and in the midst of fields uninjured or mixed up with the ruins of houses, the rest engulfed or swept seaward. Where the wave entered a fiord or bay it bore everything along to the head of the ravine or valley and left the mass of debris in a heap at the end. Where the coast was low and faced the open ocean the wave washed in and, retreating, carried everything back with it. Many survivors, swept away by the waters, were cast ashore on outlying islands, or seized bits of wreckage and kept afloat. On the open coast the wave came and withdrew within five minutes, while in long inlets the waters boiled and surged for nearly a half hour before subsiding. The best swimmers were helpless in the first swirl of water, and nearly all the bodies recovered were frightfully battered and mutilated, rolled over and driven against rocks, struck by and crushed between timbers. The force of the wave cut down groves of large pine trees to short stumps, snapped thick granite posts of temple gates and carried the stone cross-beams 309 yards away. Many people were lost through running back to save others or to save their valuables.
One loyal schoolmaster carried the emperor's portrait to a place of safety before seeking out his own family. A half-demented soldier, retired since the late war and continually brooding on a possible attack by the enemy, became convinced that the first cannonading sound was from a hostile fleet, and, seizing his sword, ran down to the beach to meet the foe. One village officer, mistaking the sound of crashing timbers for crackling flames, ran to high ground to see where the fire was, and thus saved his life. Another village officer, living on the edge of a hill, heard the crash and slid his screens open to look upon foaming waters nearly level with his veranda. In a moment the waters disappeared, leaving a black, empty level where the populous village had been a few minutes before. Four women clung to one man, seeking to escape to high ground, and their combined weight resisting the force of the receding wave they were all saved. The only survivors of another village were eight men who had been playing the game of "go" in a hillside temple. Eight children floated away and left on high ground were believed to be the only survivors of one village, until one hundred people were found who had been borne across and stranded on the opposite shores of their bay. One hundred and fifty people were found cast away on one island offshore. From two large villages on one bay only thirty young men survived, hardy, muscular young fishermen and powerful swimmers, yet in other places the strongest perished, and the aged and infirm, cripples, and tiny children were miraculously preserved. The wave flooded the cells of Okachi prison and the jailers broke the bolts and let the 195 convicts free. Only two convicts attempted to escape, the others waiting in good order until marched to the high ground by their keepers. The good Père Raspail had just reached Kamaishi from his all-day walk of 50 miles over the mountains and entered his inn, when his assistant called to him from the street. The priest came to the veranda, but in an instant the water was upon him. He was seen later, swimming, but evidently was struck by timbers or swept out to sea, as his body has not been recovered. Japanese men-of-war cruised for a week off Kamaishi, recovering bodies daily. The Japanese system of census enumeration is so complete and minute that the name of every person who lost his life was soon known, and the Official Gazette was able to state that out of a population of 6,529 at Kamaishi 4,985 were lost and 500 injured, while 953 dwellings and 867 warehouses and other structures were destroyed or carried away, and 176 ships carried inland or swept out and lost.
The survivors were so stunned with the appalling disaster that few could do anything for themselves or others. With houses, nets, and fishing-boats carried away and the fish retreating to further and deeper waters, starvation faced them, and, the great heat continuing while so many bodies were strewn along shore and imprisoned in ruins, the atmosphere fast became poisonous. The north-coast people are opposed to cremation and insisted on earth burial, which delayed the disposal of the dead and augmented the danger of pestilence. Disinfectants were sent in quantity, and the work of recovery and burial was so pressing that soldiers were put to it after all available coolies had been impressed. The Red Cross Society, with its hospitals and nurses, had difficulty in caring for all the wounded, the greater number of whom, besides requiring surgical aid, were suffering from pneumonia and internal inflammations consequent upon their long exposure in wet clothing without shelter and from the brine, fish oil, and sand breathed in and swallowed while in the first tumult of waters. Besides the generous relief fund subscribed by the people, the government has made large assignments from its available funds and sent stores of provisions, clothing, tools, etc., to the 60,000 homeless, ruined, bereaved, and starving people of the San-Riku coast.
The wave was plainly felt two hours later on the shores of the island of Yesso, 200 miles north of the center of disturbance on the San-Riku coast, the water advancing 80 feet beyond high-tide mark on the beach at Hakodate. Eight hours later there was a great disturbance of the waters on the shores of the Bonin islands, more than 700 miles southward, the water rising three or four feet and retreating violently. Six hours later, on the shores of Kaui, the most northern of the Hawaiian islands, distant 3,390 miles, the waters receded violently and washed on shore in a wave some inches above the normal height.
The plainest inference has been that the great wave was the result of an eruption, explosion, or other disturbance in the bed of the sea, 500 or 600 miles off the San-Riku coast. The most popular theory is that it resulted from the caving-in of some part of the wall or bed of the great "Tuscarora Deep," one of the greatest depressions of the ocean bed in the world, discovered in 1874 by the present Rear-Admiral Belknap, U. S. N., while in command of the U. S. S. Tuscarora, engaged in deep-sea surveys.
The "Tuscarora Deep" is nearly five and one-third statute miles in depth, being exceeded, so far as known, only by the still more profound depths discovered last year in the South Pacific by Commander A. F. Balfour, of the British Navy.
That disturbances were taking place in this tremendous abyss was again suggested at six o'clock on the morning of July 4, when the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's mail steamer Empress of Japan, sailing directly over it in a smooth sea, was shaken as if a propeller blade had been lost or the ship had struck an obstruction. Every one was roused by the peculiar shock, but no visible explanation was furnished. The destructive wave and this incident together should stimulate further investigation of this dangerous, bottomless pit of the Pacific ocean, which owes its discovery to United States explorers by deep-sea soundings.
While on our destructive, "Alarm Clock Tour," shadowplay and I stopped at many random places for random shots like this. This was somewhere between Bishop and Burbank, CA on our way to the airport. Random shacks and junk were situated on a few acres in the middle of nowhere.
There are often better, cheaper, less-destructive alternatives to building a large dam, whether to meet energy or water needs, or to reduce the impacts from floods. These alternatives - from small-scale, decentralized water supply and new renewables, to large-scale efficiency and conservation options - have frequently been ignored or dismissed out of hand when a large dam project is on the table.

About my pictures:
Since 2014 I've been documenting the daily, destructive, poisonous chemtrail activity in the Dayton, Ohio area -- home of the notorious Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (visited by every important person on Earth, and even a few Aliens ;-) -- and apparently from my photo and video documentation, Chemtrail Central. This area has been getting chemtrailed on a massive, daily basis and is being conducted, as they say, “in plain sight”.
However, this area isn’t special in that regard. The massive chemtrailing is going on across the USA (and other countries), as evidenced in abundance on FlickR and many other sites. This incredible not-so-secret Government program, which itself is expensive and dangerous, spoils not only blue skies, but poisons our air, water and soil to unknown levels. Regardless of the purpose, weather control/weather as a weapon/mind control, it really amounts to a crime against humanity in my opinion.
In response, I have posted thousands of full-resolution images (15,000+!), documenting the overwhelming evidence of this crime on Flickr:
