Trump-Pence Administration’s ban on transgender troops



Today,
the Human Rights Campaign, Lambda Legal, OutServe-SLDN, American Military Partner Association, and Gender Justice League
published a full-page USA Today ad featuring leading military, national security and bipartisan officials who agree with the majority of Americans
that the Trump-Pence Administration’s ban on transgender troops is wrong and hurts military readiness.
The ad encourages the vast majority of Americans
who oppose the Trump-Pence Administration’s effort to ban up to 15,000 active duty transgender troops to call the White House
and
demand they put our military readiness and brave servicemembers ahead of politics.
The ad will also run in every local Gannett paper nationwide on Wednesday.

He can backtrack all he wants.

Rebekah Entralgo Feb 22, 2018


On Thursday morning, President Donald Trump sent out a series of tweets attempting to defend a point raised in another tweet from 2016 that suggested he was not in favor of arming teachers as a solution to school shootings.

In his Thursday morning tweets, however, Trump still proposed arming teachers, with the caveat that they must be “adept” and have “military or training experience.

Puerto Rico is an island in distress (Well Duh)



Puerto Rico is a Caribbean island in distress (Well Duh)



Puerto Rico is a (110mi by (40mi) island.
It is always windy, sunny and warm.
Because it is an island, water is everywhere, salt and fresh.

Puritans
make trash,
sewer,
heat/cool their building
and
power their island,
right?


Why not do so with 'Alternative Energy Systems'?


Build everything possible under or close to the ground for obvious reasons.

Petroleum products fuel transportation, electricity generation, and industry in Puerto Rico, supplying three-fourths of the energy consumed in the commonwealth.

In 2016, 47% of Puerto Rico’s electricity came from petroleum,
34% from natural gas,
17% from coal,
and
2% from renewable energy.

Two wind farms supplied nearly half of Puerto Rico's renewable generation in 2016;
one of them, the 95-megawatt Santa Isabel facility, is the largest wind farm in the Caribbean.

As of June 2017, Puerto Rico had 127 megawatts of utility-scale solar photovoltaic generating capacity and 88 megawatts of distributed (customer-sited, small-scale) capacity. In the first six months of 2017, more renewable electricity came from solar energy than any other source.

Puerto Rico is a large Caribbean island of roughly 3,500 square miles located in the West Indies.

The maximum length from east to west (from Punta Puerca to Punta Higuero) of 180 km (110 mi) and with a maximum width from north to south (from Isabella to Punta Colón) of 65 km (40 mi). Comparative area: approximately three times the size of Rhode Island.

It’s the easternmost island of the Greater Antilles chain, which also includes Cuba, Jamaica and Hispaniola (divided into Haiti and the Dominican Republic). After centuries of Spanish rule, Puerto Rico became a territory of the United States in 1898 and has been largely self-governing since the mid-20th century. It has a population of some 3.4 million people and a vibrant culture shaped by a mix of Spanish, United States and Afro-Caribbean influences.

After three separate votes in 1967, 1993 and 1998 reaffirmed Puerto Rico’s commonwealth status, a majority of residents who voted in a 2012 referendum said they were not satisfied with the status quo, and indicated their preferred choice was independence over statehood.

Hundreds of thousands of voters left the second part of the referendum blank, however, leaving the question open for further debate. A fifth referendum in 2017 ended in a majority vote for statehood, but only 23 percent of voters (a historic low) turned out.

Students Fighting Guns Since Adults Won't


Students Fighting Guns Since Adults Won't


Julia Kemple started this petition to Representative Fred Upton and 6 others


Adults have failed us. Everyday, we students walk into school with the promise of an education without threat of violence. However, it has become increasingly clear that hallways of schools across America are no longer a guaranteed safe haven. Whether it's an elementary school in small-town Connecticut or a high school in Florida, it's become apparent that school shootings are becoming an expected part of American life. Since 2013, there have been 291 school shootings, with 18 of them happening in 2018 alone. We simply ask how many shootings will it take, how many innocent children have to die, until adults decide we, as our nation's children, are more important than our nation's guns. Therefore, we ask our fellow students to take it upon ourselves to stand up as our adults remain sitting. We demand change.

While most students cannot vote, we are not voiceless to our society. There are about 56 million K through 12 students in the United States. If we mobilize this population -- by signing petitions, contacting lawmakers, and utilizing social media -- we can make our presence felt. Ultimately, our goal is to pressure lawmakers to make comprehensive and responsible gun control policy to keep our schools and society safe. 

It's not a matter of if anymore, it's a matter of when we will be affected.  

Students For Gun Legislation

Someday real soon our children can run to clean up our country. I am pleased to help them live, please also sign?

Happy St, Roman Lupercalia Day ( Valentine’s Day)


Ash Wednesday?

In the Old Testament ashes were found to have used for two purposes:
as a sign of humility
and mortality;
and
as a sign of sorrow and repentance for sin.
The Christian connotation for ashes in the liturgy of Ash Wednesday 
has also been taken from this Old Testament biblical custom./
http://www.theholidayspot.com/ash_wednesday/origin.htm
Ecclesiastes 3:20 King James Version (KJV)
20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

Christians believe
that
because of the cross,
Jesus Christ is the only way to remove sin.

John 14:6 King James Version (KJV)

6 Jesus saith unto him,

I am the way, the truth, and the life:

no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.



February 14th

 As my regulars will tell you,
This house
ignores this
evil occult run Roman holiday!

We go out a few days before
and
where ever she chooses to go,
whenever she chooses to go.

St, Roman Lupercalia Day ( Valentine’s Day)

A few days after this occult day,
we go out to whenever
I choose to go,
where I chose to go.


P.S.
I always pick my birthday
because it is just a few day's later.

 The Roman Festival of Lupercalia

February, or February 15, Lupercalia was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.

To begin the festival, members of the Luperci, an order of Roman priests, would gather at a sacred cave where the infants Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, were believed to have been cared for by a she-wolf or lupa. The priests would sacrifice a goat, for fertility, and a dog, for purification. They would then strip the goat’s hide into strips, dip them into the sacrificial blood and take to the streets, gently slapping both women and crop fields with the goat hide. Far from being fearful, Roman women welcomed the touch of the hides because it was believed to make them more fertile in the coming year.
Later in the day, according to legend, all the young women in the city would place their names in a big urn. The city’s bachelors would each choose a name and become paired for the year with his chosen woman.
These matches often ended in marriage.

around A.D. 270–others claim that the Christian church may have decided to place St. Valentine’s feast day in the middle of February in an effort to “Christianize” the pagan celebration of Lupercalia.
Celebrated at the ides of February,
or
February 15, Lupercalia was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.

Safe Clean Natural Gas is an oxymoron! again


Safe Clean Natural Gas is an oxymoron!
What is BLEVE?
A BLEVE is short for
"boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion,"


Truck carrying natural gas bursts into flames on highway in China
Fox News 19


HEBEI, China (KTRK) --

A truck loaded with liquefied natural gas turned over and erupted into a fireball on a highway in northern China Sunday.

Video shows a witness who captured the fire on camera quickly back up as the flames spread across the road and to nearby cars.

Two people in the truck were rushed to the hospital with serious burns.




A BLEVE
is short for
"boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion,"

MENDHAM - When Craig Bellamy got the call of a fire in trash truck at the Village Shopping Center on Dec. 28, he was hoping he wouldn't be walking into a BLEVE, one of the most dreaded and potentially dangerous types of fires.

In firefighters terminology, a BLEVE is short for "boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion,"
caused by the
rupture of a vessel containing a pressurized liquid above its boiling point.

In this case, the liquid was compressed natural gas, the fuel for the trash truck, which, if ignited, can shoot out a powerful burst of fire almost like a blow torch, according to Bellamy, the borough's fire official.

The gas tank did rupture and the explosion severely damaged four businesses at the shopping center. Fortunately, there were no injuries.

A similar incident occurred in Madison just before rush hour on Tuesdsay, Jan. 24. A garbage truck fueled by compressed natural gas caught fire. Police arrived to find the cab engulfed in flames while the occupants were able to escape without injuries.

The two incidents, along with 12 others reported in New Jersey and around the U.S., have led the Morris County Public Safety Training Academy to prepare classes on fighting fires involving compressed natural gas.
