A Lot of Good News
the Lame Street Media Won't Tell You About
If it has to do with
President Trump. the major networks and news outlets are going to
bury anything positive for him. One has to dig through a lot of sites
to find them. Here's what this article refers to:
-
North and South Korea on Friday announced that they would work to achieve a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula.
-
Mike Pompeo was confirmed as Secretary of State.
-
First quarter GDP was 2.3 percent versus 0.7 percent this time last year
-
Jobless claims are at the lowest level since 1969.
-
Legislation is being developed to minimize fraud, abuse and misuse of SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program / Food Stamps).
-
The Dow Jones Industrial Averages closed above 24,000 last Friday, up 15.9 percent versus a year ago.
President Trump
Stops Rally to Call for Doctor to Help Member of Audience
Hour after hour of
clips of that sleazy not-so-funny comedienne at the WH Press Corps
Dinner and not one word anywhere about another instance of the
president caring about those who come out to attend his rallys.
The president had
been in the middle of talking about Immigration and Customs
Enforcement dealing with gangs when it became clear that a member of
the audience was distressed.
The president
abruptly stopped. “A doctor please? Doctor. A doctor please.”
“Thank you, sir!”
someone could be heard yelling off to the left of the stage.
“Take your time,
take your time though,” Trump said. He then walked to the side of
the podium, apparently to make sure that the rally attendee was
getting treatment.
Feds Try To Force
Church Cafeteria To Pay Volunteers As Employees
The headlines should
read; "Obama's Feds ..." It was his Department of Labor
that came up with this travesty against the Grace Cathedral church
near Akron, Ohio.
Beginning in 2014,
the U.S. Department of Labor investigated and then sued it on the
grounds that for an enterprise, church or otherwise, to use volunteer
unpaid labor in a commercial setting violated the minimum wage
provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) of 1938. A trial
court agreed with the Department and found liability, but now, in
Acosta v. Cathedral Buffet et al., the Sixth Circuit has reversed the
ruling and sent the case back for further proceedings, noting that
“to be considered an employee within the meaning of the FLSA, a
worker must first expect to receive compensation.”
And the article states
that the Trump administration didn't reverse this because the new
solicitor wasn't approved until after the case had been argued.
Saudi Crown Prince
Mohammed Bin Salman: Palestinians Need To Negotiate Or 'Shut Up And
Stop Complaining'
Nowhere in this guys
bio does it indicate any connection with the USA. No military
background. So, where does his anti-Iran/Palestine mindset come from?
He's certainly far different from previous Saudi rulers.
According to Barak
Ravid of Israel’s Channel 10 News and Axios, Saudi Crown Prince
Mohammed bin Salman shocked Jewish attendees during a meeting in New
York in March, saying:
In the last several decades the Palestinian leadership has missed one opportunity after the other and rejected all the peace proposals it was given. It is about time the Palestinians take the proposals and agree to come to the negotiations table or shut up and stop complaining.
Bin Salman also
slammed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, reports Ravid, citing
inside sources.
UK Now Has a Muzzie
Home Secretary
Britain's former
communities secretary, Sajid Javid, was named as new UK interior
minister on Monday. There's no USA equivalent but here are his
duties:
The Home Secretary
is responsible for the internal
affairs of England
and Wales, and for immigration
and citizenship
for the United Kingdom. The remit of the Home Office also includes
policing
in England
and Wales and matters of national
security, as the Security
Service (MI5) is directly accountable to the Home Secretary.
In other words, the UK
is daily become closer to being a Muslim Caliphate and there appears
to be not turning back.
Canada Whining
Because "Too Many Nigerians" are Crossing From the USA
Oh golly whiz. They
opened the doors and are now finding that it is costing them more
than they want to deal with. My own feeling is that we should take
all those "refugees" at our southern border and send them
into Canada.
Margaret Wente at
the Globe and Mail cuts
through the political correctness and identifies what’s going
on with the Canadian government right now. The reality is that the
flood of illegal aliens being welcomed into their country is
straining resources, particularly in Quebec. The only solution
offered thus far is to shuffle more of them off to Ontario, but they
say they’ve already got too much on their plate.

Roman Roads and
Modern Civilization
It's hard to believe
that structures built 2,000 years ago play a big role in today's
world.
During my time in
Europe, I loved to visit sites where I could see Roman Ruins and
things still standing and being used. Baths still being enjoyed
today. One doesn't have to be a history buff to enjoy them.
A lot more pictures and

German police union
chief admits there are several “no-go areas”
where police only go in
large teams
At least the Germans
are admitting that they have Muslim enclaves where police are afraid
to go in less than "large teams." When will the other
European nations confess that they too are plagued with foreign
invasions?
Michael Mertens, who
was elected on Tuesday as police union chief of NRW, was interviewed
by local newspaper Rheinische post. When asked if no-go areas exist
in Germany’s most populous state he says:
“There are areas
where cops do not go alone, but only in larger teams. Such areas now
exist in almost all NRW cities. Here we have to show a clear presence
and make it clear that everyone who lives in this country has to obey
the law.”
Mertens adds that
the state’s zero-tolerance strategy “has to develop and this will
take years. But the direction is right. Also, because it gives the
police more respect.”

Trump Suggesting to
Meet Kim at the DMZ
Makes a whole lot of
sense.
President Donald
Trump seemed to hint on Monday that he would like to meet North
Korean leader Kim Jong Un in the Korean demilitarized zone.
North Korea may
not have a plane capable of taking Kim far overseas, which could
potentially embarrass the country.
If the meeting
happens in Korea, Kim's potential embarrassment has been averted.
I wonder if it was
Bolton who came up with the idea.

International Code
Council Looks to Veterans to Fill Massive Labor Shortfall
Another organization
seeking the skills and discipline of veterans and their families to
fill many upcoming vacancies as plans examiners, inspectors, and
administrators.
Why consider a
career in building safety?
High salaries.
According to a 2014 study, the median salary for code officials is
between $50,000 and $75,000 per year.
Protect and serve.
Innate skills.
Certifications
transfer with you.
Low or no cost
training.
Quick and
accessible.
Strong, disaster
resilient, eco-friendly homes that are also efficient to build.
The system seems to
make a whole lot of sense. I just wonder how construction companies
and workers think of it.
NUDURA ICFs can
endure winds of up to 402 kph (250 mph) and the non-toxic fire
retardant expanded polystyrene foam provides a fire protection rating
of up to 4 hours. Designed to not only protect against the elements,
these forms provide environmental benefits through waste reduction
and energy conservation.
“ICFs provide
significant energy savings and reduce the carbon footprint of the
building. When you combine two panels of 2 5/8” EPS foam with the
structural strength and thermal mass of concrete, a NUDURA ICF home
can provide up to 60 percent savings in energy costs,” says Mr.
Rector.
Stem Cell Therapy
Lets The Golden Bear Play Golf Again
I can see a whole lot
of people wanting to try this therapy. I sure know I would love to.
To be able to stand for any length of time without back pain would be
a miracle.
The experts behind
the treatment, which costs just £30, are confident the rapid
procedure will be widely available within the next five years.
It works by taking
100ml to 200 ml of fat tissue from the patient’s abdomen, and
spinning it in a centrifuge with a special enzyme mixture made from a
substance produced by e.coli, which separates the stem cells.
