A trip to Europe can be quite pricey compared with other destinations around the world, but with a little research into costs, it's easy to design a trip around your budget. Germany can be expensive or affordable depending on the city you're visiting and whether or not you know some tricks to stretch your dollar – or your euro – further. Overall, one person can likely get by with 100 euros a day, including accommodations.
Expensive Cities vs. Cheaper Cities
The amount of euros you bring to Germany depends on which cities you're traveling to and how much time you're spending in each city. Munich, Frankfurt and Stuttgart are among Germany's most expensive cities, while Leipzig, Bochum and Kiel are considered the most affordable. Berlin and Hamburg fall somewhere in the middle, while Cologne is on the more expensive side.
Of course, most tourists visit places like Munich and Cologne as opposed to Leipzig, where there are fewer attractions. But Leipzig still offers plenty for the savvy traveler, such as the Museum der bildenden Künste, which hosts the city's fine arts collection and costs only 5 euros for a ticket. Auerbachs Keller, also in Leipzig, is one of the most well-known and oldest restaurants in Germany.
When to Visit?
The amount of euros to bring to Germany also depends on when you're planning to travel there. The high season runs from May to September, when temperatures are warm and people have vacation time, both in Germany and abroad. Hotels are more expensive during this time, as are prices at attractions and touristy restaurants. Oktoberfest, which typically falls in September, is an extremely busy time, especially in Munich. Hotels are almost fully booked the first week of the festival, which means prices soar. Just an evening at the festival alone can cost around 50 euros.
Cost of Accommodations
In 2017, the average price of a hotel room in Germany was 64 euros. Of course, that price can range a lot depending on the city, the hotel's rating, proximity to the city center and time of year. Research alternative lodgings at sites like Airbnb, where you can usually find options that are cheaper than hotels. Explore third-party sites like Booking.com to see if there are any discounts.
Cost of Food
When it comes to food, you can spend a lot or very little. Just like everything else, the price of food varies from one city to another, but in general, expect to pay around 10 euros on average for a basic lunchtime meal. However, a really expensive meal with three courses, especially in a touristy area, can be upward of 45 euros. If you're looking to save money on food, try eating street food, like a shawarma, which can be around 5 euros.
Other Potential Costs
Though accommodations and food will account for the majority of your daily expenses while traveling in Germany, other activities like transportation and attractions can make your trip either really expensive or not so bad.
For instance, taking the subway around the city you're in will cost around 3 euros a ride, which is a lot less than a taxi. Similarly, some attractions cost more than others. But travelers can save money by buying passes that cover multiple attractions, like the Berlin Pass. This is an all-inclusive sightseeing card that starts at 100 euros for a two-day pass and includes entry to all of the city's attractions.
The Bottom Line
If you want to have a nice time in Germany without spending too much, then plan on bringing 100 euros per day, including accommodations costs. This should cover food, attractions, minor shopping and some additional entertainment, and it's likely you'll have money left over each day.

A perfect snack that's low in calories, sodium, and fat. One serving is half an egg, so pay attention to how many you eat; the calories and cholesterol add up quickly.
Recipe Is:
How to Make It
Step 1
Slice eggs in half lengthwise; remove yolks and reserve 4 whole yolks for another use.
Step 2
Combine yogurt and next 6 ingredients (through hot pepper sauce) in a medium bowl; mash with a fork. Add remaining yolks; beat with a mixer at high speed until smooth. Spoon about 1 tablespoon yolk mixture into each egg-white half. Cover and chill 1 hour. Garnish with green onions, if desired.
Step 3
Note: To perfectly center the yolks before hard-boiling the eggs, wrap a rubber band around your egg carton and refrigerate the carton on its side for several hours or overnight.

Deepika Padukone made everyone sit back and take notes on how to dress up perfectly on your first wedding anniversary without buying new clothes. Yes, you read that right. The actress, who celebrated her first anniversary with Ranveer Singh in the most beautiful and private manner, made sure to recycle her old wedding clothes and footwear. And yes, we have proof!
The actress had worn a beautiful maroon dhoti suit for her Sangeet last year in November and now, she wore the same suit in Amritsar as she visited the Golden temple. The beautiful ankle-length kurta with dhoti pants which she teamed up with a sheer tissue dupatta with scattered embroidery all over it by her favourite designer Sabyasachi was to look out for. The actress styled her look with jadau choker, light smokey eyes, muted lip and sindoor this time while last time she kept it simple by skipping the dupatta and keeping her make up subtle.

Not only this, but Deepika also repeated her jootis which she had worn in her Sindhi wedding last year on November 15, 2018. The jooti was specially customized for the actress and was from the Christian Louboutin x Sabyasachi collection. This time DP paired the jootis up with her Sabyasachi suit for her Golden temple visit. Amazing, isn't it?
We loved how the actress decided to repeat her outfit and footwear and give us a beautiful flashback of her wedding last year. We guess it is time for hubby Ranveer also to take some inspiration from his dear wifey because we have never spotted him repeat or recycle his clothes.

14 Dec,2016 By Jagabond
December is a tricky time to visit Europe. Days are overcast and short, and the weather isn't typically that great outside of far south. This is a month, however, where many Americans get to travel, so it's worth discussing – not everyone can visit Europe between May and September. In Italy, the Amalfi Coast certainly isn't experiencing beach weather this time of year, but the near-coastal town of Sorrento is still bustling with Italian tourists, and very much worth a visit. After I settled into my new office at work, I took the hour long train from Naples and checked into the Hotel Mignon, a budget friendly yet beautiful lodging option conveniently nestled next to a supermarket and multiple restaurant and nightlife options. So…how did I spend my December weekend in Sorrento?
Soak in the Christmas Spirit
It's no secret I'm a Christmas market fan, so I took this opportunity to find the holiday magic in Sorrento. The main square adjacent to the train station had a street food theme this weekend. There was everything from wine booths, to sushi stands, and of course pizza, a regional favorite. They even moved some ovens into the street for the occasion.
I visited next the Christmas market held in Villa Fiorentino. This is basically a house owned by a rich family in the 1930s, that was bequeathed to the city of Sorrento upon their death. It's now the site of a variety of events throughout the year. I've seen plantation homes in New Orleans, and million dollar homes in Santa Barbara, and I still thought this was impressive.
The inside of the mansion focused on numerous nativity scene displays. There were traditional scenes on display, and some with a different flair. I'm a sucker for tradition, so I liked those the most.
I ventured outside to a wonderful garden area filled with orange trees and market booths. Although billed as 'Santa's Village', the young woman playing Santa seemed uninterested and kept checking her phone. I paused to admire the succulent hanging tomatoes and other local food products. There was even a donkey exhibit above the garden (my favorite was named Polly), and a Ferris wheel for the kids.
When leaving the market, Christmas was still in the air. Right outside on the main street there was a parade, though the female Santa leading it was on stilts and marching oddly. There was also a local pub that inserted a fake snow sprayer that fired off intermittently, and fascinated the kids walking by.
Embrace the Buffalo
Moving to the Campania region of Italy, I have entered the realm of the Italian water buffalo. Their milk is used to make Buffalo di Mozzarella, which in turn is coupled with tomatoes, oil and basil to make my favorite salad – caprese. I was lucky enough to have my hotel recommend the nearby Buffalo Inn for dinner.
The inside was decked out with a welcoming black and red theme, and the decor was a perfect blend of classy and casual. Not only did I have the best caprese salad ever (with HUGE chunks of mozzarella), but they brought a basket of focaccia bread with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Why is it that simply smearing bread with balsamic and oil tastes so damn good? This actually filled me up before I could order the main course, so I went back for lunch the next day. I examined the menu for only a few minutes, before decisively ordering the rich and flavorful buffalo sausages, probably the first red meat I've eaten in many years. I highly recommend this restaurant!
Choose Wine over Beer
I shouldn't have to say it, but Italian beer ain't that great. Further, in the winter months the pubs are absolutely empty, which makes it a great time for wine tasting instead. I stumbled across a great find my first night in Sorrento – La Vineria Bollicine, a wine bar settled on a tiny side street that I just happened to be walking down.
The inside was lovely and quaint, the owner/barman was enthusiastic and attentive, and there was one other couple there, a friendly Frenchman with his elegantly beautiful British wife. As much as I act like I know something about wine, I usually just smile and nod while experts explain things like where the grape comes from, how it's processed, etc. The owner here was able to passionately describe the wines in a way I actually understood, adding to the overall positive experience.
I had two amazing white wines here, one using the Arneis grape, specific to the Piedmont region and which produces a crisp flavor, and a great-tasting oaky wine from Avellino, which was particularly interesting to me since I'll be moving to the Avellino province in a few weeks. After chatting with the couple about travel and European politics, I left here with a big smile on my face. Bollicine is a great way to start or finish your night.
Explore the Narrow Streets
Not since Venice have I experienced seductive small streets like this. You could spend a day just wandering, as it's beautiful in the day or night, and getting lost isn't necessarily a bad thing. Some streets are filled with vendors whereas others you are alone with your thoughts. Reserve a few hours to peruse the oil paintings, shop for a bottle of their famous Limoncello, people-watch while enjoying a cappuccino, or discover one of the many churches they have spread about. In Sorrento you could argue that it's best to drift without a plan, and go wherever the streets may take you.

You may be surprised to hear that there are no 'bad' foods – there are foods that supply the body with more kilojoules than others, and there are foods that supply the body with more nutrients than others, but at the end of the day, there is not one food that makes you fat or one food that should never be eaten.
In saying that however, there are styles of eating that are closely linked to consuming too many kilojoules on a regular basis which is what ultimately results in weight gain.
A common scenario for those who are overweight is that they find themselves eating certain foods because this is what they think they 'should' be eating, as opposed to what they 'feel' like eating. Then, because their actual craving has not been fulfilled, they end up buying an extra sweet treat and eating that in addition to their meal or snack. This results in overeating and weight gain over time.
People who tend to eat what they like, when they like, often achieve a much better balance as they avoid the overeating that occurs when you don't listen to your natural appetite signals.
This approach does not mean that you should binge on a block of chocolate each and every time you crave some, but it does mean that if you feel like some chocolate, you should have it. The key to avoiding overeating is to choose good quality chocolate in portion controlled quantities.
Once you accept that there are no foods you cannot eat, but ask yourself what you really feel like eating when you do get hungry, and properly consider which food choice will satisfy you, you will have finally reached a state of self-control with your eating. Remember, food is meant to nourish the body and be enjoyed, it is as simple as that.
Change your food thinking
1) Stop thinking of food as 'good' and 'bad', instead opting for the terms 'everyday' and 'sometimes' foods.
2) Differentiate regular, daily eating occasions from special occasions where you may indulge.
3) If you do overdo it, make sure you have a day of eating light soups or salads.
4) Include a small treat such as a row of chocolate or glass of wine in your daily eating plan.
5) To normalise foods rather than viewing them as 'treats' that should not be eaten, practice keeping high fat treats in the house and not eating them just because they are there.
6) Stop hiding food, you and the kids both know it is there.
7) If you crave sweet foods, satisfy the food craving but also make it part of a balanced snack so you are kept full for a couple of hours after eating it.
8) Always ask yourself, "What do I really feel like eating?".
9) If you are experiencing constant cravings, check if your baseline diet is well balanced – an unbalanced diet can result in constant hunger and food cravings.
10) Remember the mantra of "quality over quantity" when indulging – if it is not great quality chocolate, cakes, cheese or desserts, don't waste your kilojoules, instead saving them for something you love to eat.

In an age of political polarization, an era of chronic 50-50 stalemate, it was refreshing to see Floridians of all political stripes come together last November to vote "yes" on Amendment 13, thus setting a timetable for the phase-out of greyhound racing across the state. You don't see too many 69-percent mandates these days, folks. But there it was. Florida clearly wants to put the anachronistic industry behind it. And, come Jan. 1, 2021, greyhound racing will indeed be a thing of the past in the Sunshine State.
Having failed at the ballot box, however, industry interests are attempting to thwart the will of the people in court. Implementation of Amendment 13 has been challenged legally in recent months by kennel owners in St. Petersburg and West Palm Beach. Yes, their chances of success are slim, but these maneuverings indicate that a handful of Florida's dog tracks refuse to recognize the plebiscite, or "the mob" (in the words of one legal filing).
Although it is not a named party to these actions, one of Florida's last operating dog tracks is right here in Northeast Florida. Not only has BestBet Orange Park refused to voluntarily halt racing—presumably until the bitter end—but it has been implicated in drug violations as recently as this year. In May, First Coast News reported that BestBet greyhounds have tested positive for cocaine and methocarbamol.
And, as of last month, Northeast Florida's dog-racing industry is placing a $5,000 wager on one candidate for St. Johns County Sheriff. St. Augustine Beach Police Chief Rob Hardwick had long been rumored to have designs on the office being vacated by the county's scandal-ridden sitting sheriff, David Shoar, but he didn't formally announce his candidacy until last month. He has since outraised his competitor, Chris Strickland, who has been in the race since January. Among Hardwick's 265 reported September contributions (totaling $186,124) are five $1,000 checks made by just as many BestBet-related businesses, all registered to one of two P.O. boxes in Orange Park (Clay County) and Jacksonville (Duval County).
The disclosure has prompted letters to this editor, one calling on the candidate to return such "dirty money" from "dog abusers." Another reader questioned Hardwick's relationship with Shoar. Hardwick is the heir apparent to the outgoing four-term sheriff's throne; he even has Shoar's seal of approval—and his maximum campaign contribution. The endorsement might help among establishment donors, but voters not so much. The sheriff is an unpopular figure in St. Johns County, seen by some as a caricature of good-ol'-boy corruption.
The citizens of St. Johns County haven't forgotten Sheriff Shoar's controversial handling of one case in particular. Michelle O'Connell will continue to haunt the sheriff and anyone associated with him. Although clearly suspicious, her 2010 death was peremptorily ruled a suicide to protect O'Connell's boyfriend (and the most obvious suspect), Deputy Jeremy Banks, who is still on the force. The body count doubled in January of this year, when a private investigator who had dedicated their life to solving the O'Connell case was found dead in a World Golf Village apartment. This time, it was ruled homicide. The investigation was referred to the neighboring (and presumably friendly) Putnam County Sheriff's Office, but it remains (surprise!) unsolved.
Will Hardwick address voter concerns, or will the establishment imprimatur—Shoar's blessing and big-money donors—give him enough juice to get over the finish line without looking back?

'Discovery' Space Shuttle photographed an Alien Spaceship
The UFO researcher and Alien hunter Scott Waring, has found photographic material from the NASA archive, coming from the 'Discovery' Space Shuttle, where mysterious presences can be observed in the space.
"I was looking through the NASA archive photos and saw this beautiful photo on the Moon taken from the Discovery Shuttle. I didn't think I would find anything at the time, I just thought it was a beautiful photo. I zoomed in and set it to auto focus and found something extraordinary"
"There was a huge object, a UFO, visible in the lower right corner of the photo. I have never reported a UFO of this form. It is very rare and unlike anything I expected. And yet, there it was, above the clouds of sunset in Earth's orbit, visible in a photograph at the NASA website. This is 100% proof of the existence of beings from other worlds who watch over the earth ". by Scott C. Waring

What hackers were looking for on the Vatican servers
As the Associated Press reports on July 29, 2020, the Vatican and the Catholic Diocese of Hong Kong have been targeted by Chinese hackers believed to be in the service of the Chinese government. There was no immediate comment at the Vatican and it was only now, after a report by The New York Times, that everything became known.
When it comes to cyber espionage, the Vatican may not seem like an obvious target. However, it has now been targeted by hackers who appear to be linked to China.
China and the Vatican are expected to begin negotiations in September to renew an agreement on control of the Catholic Church in China. Chinese leaders may look an edge – inside knowledge about how the Holy See was planning to approach the negotiating table, according to a report released by Recorded Future, a company that investigates threats in cyberspace.
The report states that the hackers were targeted the Vatican, the Diocese of Hong Kong and its head, the de facto representative of the Pope in China. In addition, according to the report, China used malware to gain access to the Vatican 's internal networks.
China's Foreign Ministry generally denies any involvement in the incident, calling the report "baseless speculation." The attacks continued from May until at least July 21st. They included, in particular, an explicit phishing attempt with documents from the Vatican State Secretariat, as it were, sent to the head of the Vatican mission in Hong Kong.
Phishing is a type of Internet fraud, the purpose of which is to gain access to confidential user data. This is achieved by sending mass emails on behalf of popular brands, as well as private messages within various services, for example, on behalf of banks or within social networks.
The letter often contains a direct link to a site that looks indistinguishable from the real one, or to a site with a redirect. After the user lands on a fake page, the scammers try, using various psychological methods, to induce the user to enter their username and password on the fake page, which they use to access a specific site, which allows the fraudsters to gain access to accounts and bank accounts.
According to a report released by the American service Recorded Future, which tracks cyberattacks, the hacking attempt was carried out by a group called RedDelta and began back in May with the possible aim of September negotiations to renew the interim agreement on bishop appointments.
China is home to about 12 million Catholics, who are divided into two groups: one part belongs to the government-backed Chinese Catholic "patriotic church association", which is outside the power of the Pope, the second, a very small part – is something like a "catacomb church" devoted to the Pope. The Chinese authorities are persecuting the parishioners and, especially, the priests of this church.
In 2018, in order to unite the flock between China and the Vatican, a sort of agreement was signed on the joint appointment of bishops, which would suit both parties. In September 2020, the agreement was to be renewed, therefore, as the official Vatican said – "The proposed invasion of RedDelta will give Beijing an understanding of the negotiating position of the Holy See ahead of the resumption of the deal in September 2020." But is it really so?
In fact, China and the Vatican are kind of twin brothers. China, which has dramatically gained strength over the past decades, did this exclusively through the efforts of globalists, who for 30 years pumped money and technology there.
On the other hand, although there is no direct evidence that the Vatican is, as it were, the spiritual leader of globalism, nevertheless, there is enough circumstantial evidence and there is even an opinion that the Antichrist will be appointed by the Vatican, which wants to destroy Israel, capture Jerusalem and plant there for the kingdom of his world king.
Therefore, it is hard to believe in some kind of confrontation between the Vatican and the PRC, especially since the essence of the issue is, as it were, feeding a flock of a couple of million sheep, which for China is nothing. Hence, one must think that the Chinese hackers decided to gain access to the computers of the main bosses, containing information that was not shared with Beijing for one reason or another. But what information could this be? And what is the reason for this urgency?
The Vatican undoubtedly keeps many secrets and with at least one eye to look at its secret libraries, many would like to at least have a quick peek at at the names of volumes. However, there are big doubts that the antediluvian manuscripts were translated into digital and placed on the server under the Pope's bed, so rather there is some current data.
But what kind of data could there be that interested either the Chinese, or someone who hacked into the Vatican disguised himself as Chinese hackers? What kind of data is there, of course, only the Vatican and the hackers who hacked it know for sure, but, as everyone else knows, in observations with infrared telescopes, the Vatican is at the forefront:
Therefore, given the ever-growing rumors about the Earth entering the asteroid cloud, which are trailing behind the Planet X that entered the solar system, one can think that the information of this plan has become the target of the hackers. That is, information about when to run to the bunker and escape. Xi or some other of his comrades might not have been told, so they decided to clarify everything on their own. But no one will tell us what the hackers have dug up, so we will have to wait and see.

The riddle of black triangle UFOs
Within the framework of the global mystery of the UFO phenomenon, there is another, still not solved puzzle. Why are many reports referring to a strange triangular ship, often dark in color, virtually silent, and the size of a football field or larger? What exactly are they?
And why are so many people watching them. In 1952, after the United States Air Force coined the term "unidentified flying object", UFOs were frequently referred to in reports as flying saucers. But witnesses have since described a wide variety of shapes: saucers (or two saucers stacked together), eggs, hats, cigars, boomerangs, light bulbs, and even Tic Tac candies.
The most common shapes were V-shaped, arrow-shaped, or triangular. David Marler, a UFO researcher and author of Triangular UFOs: An Assessment of the Situation, says he has handled over 17,000 cases involving unidentified triangular objects, sometimes called "black triangles." Whether the sightings represent forward-looking American spy ships, as some have suggested, or of unknown origin, their purpose remains mysterious. Marler says that given their frequent freezes, they can do "observation or scanning, topography analysis."
"There have been many instances of these vehicles being observed over bases operated by Strategic Air Command," says Chris Mellon, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense for intelligence during the Clinton and Bush administrations whose career has focused on unconventional threats to American security.
International phenomenon
In the 1950s, "60s" and "70s", reports of triangular UFOs sounded from all over the United States and beyond. During the 1960s, at the height of the Cold War UFO fever, mysterious flying triangles were reported over Connecticut, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Texas, as well as London, Madrid and Czechoslovakia.
In 1969, two National Guard pilots floated on the tail of a "triangular object 50 feet in diameter" over San Juan, Puerto Rico for 20 minutes until they ran out of fuel and had to return to base. Many of these incidents would have been attributed by officials to atmospheric events, weather balloons, or other daily occurrences, but some remained unexplained.
Between 1983 and 1986, there was an outbreak of mass sightings in New York's Hudson Valley, about 50 miles north of New York. One witness, Kevin Soravilla, a retired lieutenant with the Yorktown Police Department, described a huge, silent vessel, with a wingspan of 100 yards, Soravilla said he called Stewart Air Force Base in nearby Newburgh to see if it was one of transport planes C-5, then the largest and heaviest aircraft in the world, in the sky that night; none were in the sky.
Later that year, a triangular UFO hovering on the Taconic Parkway section of New York's railroad caused a huge traffic jam when dozens of motorists stopped to watch the UFO. Similar incidents have continued in the region for several years.
'Exceeded the limits of conventional aviation'
Many witnesses describe the extraordinary abilities of these ships. One evening in late November 1989, two police officers patrolling Eupen, Belgium, near the border with Germany, noticed a strange triangular object overhead. In the days that followed, hundreds of Belgians reported similar UFOs, described in news reports as "a triangular object with a bright red central fire" or as a "flying ground" with three huge searchlights.
In March 1990, the Belgian Air Force dispatched two F-16s to get a closer look at one triangle that was seen on radar. Their on-board computers recorded the object's remarkable maneuverability and its ability to accelerate from 1,000 kilometers per hour (about 621 miles per hour) to 1,800 kilometers per hour (about 1,120 miles per hour) in seconds. "What the computers registered exceeded the limits of conventional aviation," a Belgian air force colonel told reporters.
In March 1997, Phoenix, Arizona, USA, became a UFO hotspot when about 30,000 locals saw something strange in the sky. Some reports said the mysterious object was V-shaped, but many described it as triangular. "He was in the shape of a triangle and had three lanterns. He moved very slowly," the 11-year-old scout was quoted as saying.
A retired airline pilot described it as "the size of 25 liners and made no sound." Others described it as the size of three football fields. In 2000, police officers from neighboring municipalities in southern Illinois were called in to investigate a trucker report that a large arrow-shaped vessel was hanging low in the sky, two stories high and the size of a football field.
The recordings show the shock expressed by various law enforcement groups, who were all in radio contact with each other. The National UFO Reporting Center, which has cataloged over 8,100 triangular UFO sightings since the early 1960s, counted over 200 in the first half of 2020.
Truth Behind Triangles
Many of these UFO sightings have been investigated repeatedly. The Belgian triangles were explained as stars, planets, balloons or bubbles, a small mass hallucination. Fires over Phoenix were ruled out because rockets were dropped by the Air National Guard during the exercise, although this theory has many skeptics.
Some say the New York sightings were a hoax perpetrated by local stunt pilots. One explanation concerns the possibility of an "airship effect". This theory states that people who see unrelated lights in the sky can lead themselves to believe that they are all part of the same object. Three lights? Probably a triangular spaceship. Three lights hundreds of yards apart? Probably a very large triangular spaceship.
Other speculation focused on top-secret aircraft. While the US government has remained silent on the matter, it is common knowledge that the Air Force has experimented with triangular and V-shaped aircraft for decades, including the B-2 Spirit and F-117 Nighthawk stealth bomber and possibly other classified models. Sightings of the triangular aircraft near the secret test site Area-51 in Nevada may indeed be associated with test flights of some of these vessels.
However, the unusual size that many witnesses describe is puzzling. And for Marler and others, the amount of sightings and sane behavior of ships, combined with their inexplicable sudden accelerations, point away from known military technology.
If they are not local, then who are they? One theory suggests that these vessels are mapping specific areas. The sightings in southern Illinois took place within 1 to 2 miles of Scott Air Force Base, home to the US Air Mobility Command, which coordinates all global transportation for US forces.
The Hudson Valley sightings took place in the immediate vicinity of Stewart Air Force Base. And Mellon interviewed several Gulf veterans who witnessed triangular ships near special military operations.
"An adversary planning a future attack would like to know every inch of the battlefield," he says. However, the mystery of the black triangle remains. "There is a lot of data," says Marler. "But there are no answers."

UFOs have become unmeasurable beyond belief
On July 21, 2020, ufosightingshotspot.blogspot.com posted a video filmed by a citizen watching the sun by the name of Linda Miller, in which a UFO was captured, as it were, of a completely ordinary look, but in an unusual place – near the Sun:
The video itself, where the object is shown in slow motion:
The video for July 17, and on the eve of July 12, Linda saw the following near the Sun:
Meanwhile, other earthlings do not look at the Sun, but on the sides, where no less interesting events take place.
Japan, UFOs dance in a circle:
Latin America, UFO sucks water from the ocean:
India – similar traces in the atmosphere are quite often observed over the Nevada desert, but India does not have hypersonic vehicles in service:
Panama is like an annular solar eclipse, but can the Moon close the Sun so quickly?
And this thing would not cause doubt to ny nibirologist observing the crescent of Nibiru, however, as the author of the video writes – before getting into the lens, the object rushed very quickly across the sky, which attracted attention:
In general, the "aliens" do not leave us and the only thing that is not clear is what are some of them getting prepared for? We are not optimistic about this.
Yesterday a video was posted on YouTube, which was sent to the author of the channel by a concerned citizen and asked him: what is it?
Some connoisseurs began to tell the dark woman that it was "lightning", that is, lightning without sound, but it was not lightning. We and many of our acquaintances have observed similar things this summer. Lightning struck directly overhead, but there was no thunder. People now see this all over the world, then post on social networks and also ask: "what is this?".
We do not know what it is, but we know for sure that it never happened before. Therefore, it is obvious that soon there will be many other things that were not there before.

Highlight of Feb was the Non Stop Dusi, also referred to as the "Comrades" of canoeing [90km paddling/28km's Canoe portaging].
With no official support structures in place, this gruelling race requires every competitor to have a personal seconding crew tracking/supporting their entire journey from Pmb to Durban.
Last min decision by Change a Life Eric Zondi to pair up with Hank McGregor, saw this untested combination claim victory in emphatic style – kilometres ahead of the fancied Dusi crew of Michael Mbanwja & Lance Kime in 2nd place.
Change a Life combination of Zonele Nzuza & Nhlanhla Cele podiumed fantastically in 3rd place.
CAL Kwanda Mhlophe & Mmeli Cele held bravely onto 4th for ¾'s of the race, but were unfortunately passed on 'Day 3' and so finished 5th.
Hats off to novice Non Stop Dusi, Change a life Banetsi Nkhoesa, for placing 7th overall with his seasoned veteran partner and past winner CAL Thomas Ngidi. The immense effort of this gruelling race took its toll on Banetsi , come Day 3.Hitting Burma Hill Portage after 7hrs, which should of worked in their favour, instead cost them dearly, as Banetsi struggled to get to the top. Top 10 Banetsi, not bad for a first attempt .
1st – Eric/Hank
3rd – Zonele/Nhlanhla
5th – Kwanda/Mmeli)
7th – Banetsi/Thomas
Intaba Ridge Mtb Classic – 65km
With Joberg2c lurking on the horizon, the RMB Change a Life Zulus are always looking to "add value" to their long term performance – and what better way than to train hard the day before a local race.
With this in mind, the RMB CAL Zulus rode from the valley, to overnight at PMB Backpackers.
The following day they rode to the race. In muddy conditions, my Zulus raced as if their lives were at stake. The performance of the year so far was achieved, when Sthembiso stood tall on the podium in 3rd position overall, beaming from ear to ear. Mboneni 4th, Masa 8th , Bongumusa 19th . John Ntuli up near the front, unfortunately missed a marker and went off course.
The following week, the RMB CAL Zulus took part in the first of the SA Cup Series XCO at the infamous Cascades Mtb Park. The course [lap racing] was super technical with radical short sharp inclines, gearing up for the World UCI XCO in a few weeks. Admittedly I opted for one of the 'chicken run' options in my 4 lap Veterans race. With John Ntuli claiming a 3rd overall in the competitive Sub veteran category, he was well pleased, seeing that this short intense lap racing is not his speciality. Stembiso placed 17th in the highly competitive Elite category, with Mboneni 8 positions behind him. I was pleased that there were no crashes in the Rock Gardens, a great experience for the RMB CAL Zulus.
We head to Berg & Bush territory tomorrow, to take part in the Royal Drakensberg 50km Classic….
Weekly Change a Life runs have started at 3 venues in the Valley of a Thousand Hills. CAL Run assistant, Joe Maphumula, has been a revelation in his eagerness and motivation with the Valley youngsters. A month to go before the first ever CAL running league team will travel out the Valley to participate in a running race.

This is some headbobbing chuggy riff-driven sonic psychedelia if I've ever heard it. And no, this has nothing to do with that one Angel Witch album you know, Damn Infernal just uses the same artwork. The artist is dead, anyways, so what do you care?
I'll delve deeper into the album art later on, don't worry. It is a carbon copy of a relatively well-known heavy metal album's cover art from the early '80s, just with a different filter applied. I'm just as curious as you are.
Riffernaut is a project based in Singapore, mainly spearheaded by some dude who goes by the name Mizar. The completely instrumental stoner metal endeavour was launched earlier this year with The Empyrean, a work I'm not really all too familiar with, barring one or two songs.
I actually stumbled across Riffernaut when looking for Asian metal bands. What a weird activity; I can explain. I host a weekly radio show on my campus station, and my cohost and I were looking to do an episode on Asian metal music, for reasons I am still not sure of to this day. Regardless, this is how I stumbled across this particular project.
Riffernaut is everything that your preconceived notions of what a band called "Riffernaut" would sound like. We've got the traditional deadly trio here: a drumkit, a bass, and a guitar. The drums sound a little dry and lie in the shadows of massive guitar tones, but that's mostly to be expected with a project of this flavour. The percussion does carry the form of something of a "hype" nature though, with the various energetic fills and rhythmic pounding to be heard throughout. Whereas a group like Sleep can operate via riding the cymbals a bit and more or less leaving the groove to a pair of twin guitarists, Mizar seems to be going for more of a rock n' roll vibe with the project, focusing a bit more on the riff rather than the naut. I don't know what that means but you can interpret that however you'd like. I wish the drums sounded punchier. I think Mizar should pursue this particular rock n' roll flair in the project's future.
The songs displayed tend to build up towards intense musical climaxes, albeit as a consequence of fairly cookie-cutter introductions, to the likes of the opening track, "Descent into Perdition." Some of the riffs displayed are juicy enough to stand alone for a few repetitions, to the likes of the intro to "Crossing the Acheron," but some fall flat as a result of lacking originality and overused repetition. As mentioned above, Mizar seems to puppeteer his instrumental trinity towards achieving something more complex and interlaced, but some of the sections found on Damn Infernal are just a little too simple for my tastes.
The lead guitar work is really nice. In particular, moments like the final of "Crossing the Acheron" shine bright on the EP, which is a substantial element to nail as rampant soloing tends to be a signature sound for music of the green variety.
What the heck is going on with the album artwork? Taken from a painting by the late John Martin, the artwork is pretty damn cool and looks great as an album cover. Angel Witch also seemed to think so and used it first for their debut self-titled record. So… did Mizar reuse the album cover as an homage to the long-gone heavy metal titans? Mizar cites various bands as influence in his Bandcamp page description, although none of which pertain to heavy metal territory, so I'm going to hazard a guess and say that this is merely a coincidence. However, this guy is also in a death/thrash band, so he's clearly surrounded by fans of heavy music; you'd think someone would have told him that the artwork was already used. I don't know. It's just really weird looking at Martin's painting while trying to associate it with stoner metal riffs.
The Riffernaut project will be one that I'll keep my eye on. However, the apparent simplicity and lack of vocals does bring down the music's replayability factor for me. This is also clearly just a side project, so if this guy just wants to riff around and release some cool digital music, I'll let him be. This may or may not be worth your time.
Verdict: 7/10

Over the past few weeks, staff at the Library have come across a number of interesting online resources – podcasts, articles, websites and blogs that we have added to our Delicious list of links. All of them are free to access. If you have any favourite resources then please leave a comment. Here are our current top 5:
This website describes itself as 'dedicated to a study of early modern chirurgeons, and all the blood and gore that comes with it.' The site was created by Lindsey Fitzharris, who is currently a Wellcome Trust Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Queen Mary, University of London. It contains a series of casebooks covering a variety of topics, such as vivisection, blood letting and the reaction of medical students to dissection.
2) Waterloo 200
This site has been set up to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, in the run up to its 200th anniversary. Along, with Q&A and education sections, an area of the site is dedicated to articles about the battle. An article of particular interest is 'Surgeon George James Guthrie, Wellington's combat surgeon', written by MKH Crumplin (Hon. Curator at the Royal College of Surgeons of England and archivist to the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland). Crumplin traces the early life and education of Guthrie as a military doctor, his time as a surgeon in military campaigns and his career as a civilian doctor after 1815. If this article whets your appetite, Crumplin's book Guthrie's War: a surgeon of the Peninsula and Waterloo (2010) can be requested from the Bodleian's book stacks to consult in the Bodleian Libraries Reading Rooms. His 2005 book A surgical artist at war is also available to consult the Wellcome Unit Library (shelfmark R489.B38 CRU 2005) .
3) Archives Hub – The Heritage of our Medical Profession
The Archives Hub acts as a gateway that gathers together information about archives held in UK institutions. The Hub is currently adding information about the archives held by British Royal Medical Colleges. So far, it has added descriptions for the archives of Royal College of Surgeons of England, Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and more are to follow. Although many of these collections of archives have not been digitised, the Hub descriptions give details about the scope and content of the physical collections held by the institutions. For instance, the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow holds the student notes taken in Dr Robert Watt's lectures on fevers in 1812. The Hub also has sections dedicated to Tuberculosis and Charles Darwin.
4) National Archives Podcast – Anxiety, dread and disease: British ports 1834-1870
Sarah Hutton, a modern domestic records specialist at The National Archives, delves into the archives to investigate the spread of disease in British port towns in the 19th century. Using examples of cholera outbreaks in the north of England, she explores how reactions to cholera differed when the disease was deemed to have arrived on incoming ships. This lecture demonstrates the value of the vast collections available at the National Archives.
This second set of podcasts had been created by the Northern Centre for the History of Medicine, which is a partnership between Durham Univerity and Newscastle University, supported by the Wellcome Trust. Six podcasts of public seminars have been recorded and are available to listen online or download. Topics include 'The Drug Trade in Colonial India' by Dr Nandini Bhattacharya (University of Leicester) and 'Madness and Passions in Early Modern Spain' by Dr Elena Carrera (Queen Mary, University of London).

THE SOUND: A Prophecy Hidden in Plain Sight!
I was studying Acts 2, and in verses 5-7 read THIS:
"Now there were then residing in Jerusalem Jews, devout and God-fearing men from every country under heaven. And when this sound was heard, the multitude came together and they were astonished and bewildered, because each one heard them [the apostles] speaking in his own [particular] dialect. And they were beside themselves with amazement, saying, 'Are not all these who are talking Galileans?'"
Wow! I have read this a dozen times and heard it preached more than that; however, not until TODAY did it jump off the page that "the multitude" that gathered once they heard "the sound" and listened to the apostles speaking in their own tongue consisted of devout, God-fearing men. More importantly, they were people who actually KNEW the apostles!
I had always thought that it was a gathering of miscellaneous peoples from anywhere and everywhere, people that just happened to show up on the scene; people just wandering by at a divine moment, regardless of where they were from or what god they were worshiping. Not true!
This changes everything! It is a prophecy hidden in plain sight! This means "the sound" (Acts 2:2, 6) was for them, the God-fearing ones, and it is for US, too! God is coming with a new sound! THE SOUND is NOT for everyone, everywhere, but if you are reading this, it's for you – so reach out and grab it! The sound is not for the casual Christian, nor is it for the heathen! It is for devout, God-fearing people who know the sound-carrier Himself! This means you!
We are being called together by the sound, for the sound! The sound drew the multitude together so the Lord could minister to them further by the sound of His voice in their own language, drawing them to Himself. How did they know where to gather? How did they know where it came from, or what direction to follow? And for that matter, how will we?
"…'Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the Lord of hosts" (Zechariah 4:6 AMP).
It was the loud and clear sound, leading and guiding them – the sound made by the Holy Spirit! Up to this point the upper room believers were the only ones filled with the Spirit, so the Spirit had to call the other three thousand another way! He chose the sound, because God knows how to get our attention! He will get our attention, His modern-day believers, in a similar manner, rest assured! He will call us together when it is time, in the fullness of time, the new multitude, to minister to us further by the sound of his voice.
"When the fullness of time had come…" (Galatians 4:4).
This is the sound of heaven! Acts 2:2 says, "Then suddenly there came a sound from heaven like the rushing of a violent tempest blast…" What does a "violent tempest blast" sound like? A tempest, by definition, is a sudden, violent storm, accompanied by high winds and sometimes by hail or rain. That sounds like a tornado to me! The Acts 2:2 violent tempest blast sounded just like a tornado hitting, deafening in its loudness, rushing like a freight train, dropping out of heaven SUDDENLY and violently!
Wow! This is the sound of heaven! The God-fearing ones in Acts didn't miss it and we won't be able to miss it, either!
God is coming with a new sound, just for us! He is calling us unto Himself, drawing us ever closer. He is calling the called, the God-fearing, chosen remnant of this hour. Be prepared to be amazed, astonished and even bewildered, just like the multitude of believers that gathered in Acts 2. When God shows up with His new sound just for us, there will be no doubt where it is coming from, or where we should go to gather as part of the multitude of God-fearing ones!
We may not understand it all but will surely be blessed to be a part of it…and God's Holy Spirit will make sure we don't miss it. His sound will guide us right to the source – the sound carrier!
Be blessed as you listen for the sound!

Reflections: Homelessness & Holiday Seasons – Reach out and connect Photo: Eric Pouhier
Have you ever been homeless or found yourself in a situation where you felt invisible? Every time I see a homeless person or a panhandler, I try to imagine what got them there. The few times I've had a chance to speak with any of them, their stories were as varied as yours and mine. All have not fallen on hard times because of drugs. All are not able to help themselves get the requisite care. Today, my dear blog friend Kozo, wrote a powerful article, Parenting Tips from a Homeless Man, that stopped me in my tracks and brought this subject to the…

Out of suffering and hard days have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars. – Khalil Gibran
We all are afraid of facing hard days because it brings suffering to us and the people surrounding. Most people quit during these hard days and impede their personal and spiritual growth.
Some people just ignore and let the problems overweigh them. Simply ignoring an odd situation adds up and later multiplies the problems in life. Just like a chain reaction where product or by-product results in additional reactions.
During hard days, our mind gets block and we forget the hidden meaning lies in those experiences.
All we think is of getting out of the hurdles and moving back to the comfort zone where we feel secure. Although hard days disturb the peace of mind, once we figure out the hidden meaning and lessons, our perception changes.
As you read this post, you'll not only learn why hard days are better than no-problem days but also you'll find the motivation why you should not be afraid of them.
1. Hard Days Bring Spiritual Growth
I recall a story where three monks are sitting together and looking at a flag from a distance.
The first monk begins the discussion and says, "See the flag is moving." The second reverts, "No, it's not the flag. It's the wind which is moving."
The third monk who was meditating on the flag interrupts the discussion and says, "It's the mind that is moving."
Strong and spiritual people are not gifted. They are built by the life, just like fire refines gold. They have a trained mind and look at the situations quite differently from the common people. While we cry over the things we lose in life, they perceive it as the best possible thing that can happen to them.
Life is all about choices and how we respond to the incidents occurs in day-to-day life.
Hard days give you an opportunity to look at the hidden lessons of life. Once you've trained yourself to find the real meaning in your problems, you'll stop differentiating between hard and good days.
2. Hard Days Introduce You To Buddha
While I was reading Buddhism, I found a common philosophy which was repeated several times within the pages — Buddha is sitting right in your sufferings.
Like every human being, Buddha too suffered and had the same emotions of anger, love, happiness, and sadness.
If there were no emotions, there would be no Buddha. In happy days, one is incapable of observing emotions, feelings, and experiences.
It is in hard days that one indulges in critical thinking. He tries to control the situation, the fears, and the doubts and tries to be stronger. It is in the hard days one thinks of alternatives to bring back the joy in life. In hard days, we prefer peace, and like Buddha, we retire ourselves to recluse and start living alone.
Human beings are born with the natural ability to observe things, but we do not use this ability during good days. Buddha was quite different from us. He observed the emotions all through his life, controlled them and became stronger than one can ever think.
Hard days let us awake the Giant living within and simplify the life. It does not happen instantly. It takes time and as Buddha says, "A jug fills drop by drop."

3. Hard Days Kill The Ego
You may have met many people whom you've an image of "a grounded man". In truth, no one is born grounded. In fact, human beings are born self-centered. It is the experiences and the hard days that change one's personality and make him humble.
I could count on to a dozen of examples. Let me share with you the story of a familiar figure — Amitabh Bachchan. Although the incident is not about his hard days, the story will enlighten you how bitter experiences kill the ego.
It was then when Amitabh Bachchan was on the summit of his acting career. He was traveling by plane. The person sitting next to him looked simple and middle class. Everyone in the flight was excited on seeing Amitabh Bachchan but this old man was unconcerned about him.
The actor was uncomfortable at first and then strikes the talk, Hello, do you watch movies? The old man reverted, yes, but a very few. The actor mentioned that he worked in the film industry. Oh very nice, said the old man, what do you do? I'm an actor, the actor answered. Oh, the old man smiled, that's wonderful.
As the flight landed, the actor said, boasting himself, by the way, I'm Amitabh Bachchan. Nice to meet you.
Thank you, came the reply, I'm J.R.D Tata. Amitabh Bachchan was dumbfounded. On that day, he learned no matter how much big you become, there is always someone bigger. The incident, therefore, killed his ego and made him humble.
4. Hard Days Make You Less Careless About Others
Not everyone you call your friend is a true friend. You can't separate fake friends from true friends until misfortune falls on you. Hard days, therefore, aren't that bad how we think about them. Moreover, it is only in hard days we understand why we do not need an external help to bring us out from the suffering. We alone are strong enough to face the hard times.
5. Hard Days Too Shall Pass
Nothing is permanent, not even the hard days. It too shall pass and bring the happiness for you. But always remember, hard days will return someday. And when the days are standing at the door, welcome them and celebrate them, for they have the surprises, wisdom, and faith for you. Greet them with a smile, for they bring the courage and new life as no cheerful days can bring the same.

Larry "Larry Mack" McDaniel, who is a regional president of the American Outlaws Association in Georgia, was arraigned again today in the latest attempt by a United States Attorney and an apparently unprofessional FBI Agent named Mark Sewell, to get McDaniel on something. Today it was "Conspiracy and Tampering with a Witness, Victim, or an Informant & Intimidation or Force Against (a) Witness."
By ironic coincidence, this absolutely essential arraignment was conducted on the very same day that something called the "House Committee on the Judiciary Over-Criminalization Task Force of 2013" was holding an organizing meeting. The House Committee aims to stem the growth in the number of criminal statutes and regulations that carry criminal penalties. The goal is to reduce the number of federal inmates which has increased by ten fold in the last 30 years. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Robert Goodlatte, who is an ex-officio member of the Over-Criminalization Task Force, told the Wall Street Journal that Congress "creates 500 new crimes per decade" and that many of them weaken "standards as to whether the crime had to be intended."
The first thing the Over-Criminalization Task Force should take a look at are the last three federal cases against Larry Mack.
The Back Story
This first iteration of this ongoing case became public in August 2012 when the government announced that the FBI had carried out a successful infiltration of the biker counterculture in Georgia and as a result 23 people were arrested. Twenty-one of the accused were members of the Outlaws, Southern Knights, Black Pistons or Hoodlums Motorcycle Clubs.
In the government's press release, FBI supervisor Brian D. Lamkin announced that, "Today's arrests of the numerous members of the Outlaw Motorcycle Club and those of several of its affiliate clubs represents the unified efforts of our region's law enforcement in addressing a serious and very structured crime problem. The Outlaw Motorcycle Club, its affiliate clubs, and its membership are not above nor beyond the law and today's arrests, the culmination of a two-year intensive investigation, should serve as clear evidence of that."
In the same release Sally Quillian Yates, the United States Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia gloated, "All but two of the defendants charged in this investigation have direct ties to the Outlaw Motorcycle Club or other motorcycle clubs that are affiliated with and controlled by the Outlaws. The charges unsealed today allege that these motorcycle club members engaged in substantial drug trafficking and weapons offenses. This case is a big step forward in making sure that these groups don't threaten the safety of our North Georgia communities."
McDaniel, King and Brown
McDaniel and two other men, Sean King, an Outlaw from Gordon, Georgia and Howard Brown who is the Georgia President of the Black Pistons Motorcycle Club, were charged with obstructing a criminal investigation.
What had happened, according the government, was that McDaniel had found out that the FBI was conducting an undercover investigation and "had placed either an Undercover Employee or a Confidential Informant inside the Black Pistons Motorcycle Club's Cleveland, Georgia chapter." So McDaniel apparently suggested that that chapter be shut down – which it was. It is unclear what else McDaniel should have done.
There was then an investigation to determine how McDaniel knew what he knew and a second indictment of McDaniel, King and Brown for impeding "the due and proper administration of the law under which a proceeding was pending before the Federal Bureau of Investigation, an agency of the United States." That charge actually turned out not to be a crime because, to slightly over simplify, FBI investigations are not "proceedings."
Indictment Number Three
The government, however, stubbornly refuses to believe that. In an indictment filed in chambers on April 24th, the government alleges:
"Beginning in or about June 2012, and continuing until on or about August 16, 2012, in the Northern District of Georgia, the defendants, LARRY MCDANIEL, a/k/a 'Larry Mack,' HOWARD BROWN, and SEAN KING, did knowingly and intentionally combine, conspire, confederate, agree, and have a tacit understanding with each other, to commit offenses against the United States, that is, (1) to violate Title 18, United states Code, Section 1512(c){2), in that the defendants would corruptedly obstruct, influence, and impede an official proceeding, to wit: an investigation being conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in which D.B.S. was acting as an undercover informant for the FBI and Michael Griffin, a/k/a 'Griff' a law enforcement officer was acting in an undercover capacity, and (2) to violate Title 18, United States Code, Section 1512{c) (2), in that the defendants would corruptedly obstruct, influence, and impede an official proceeding, to wit: a federal grand jury investigation into criminal offenses investigated by the FBI, said FBI investigation involving D.B.S. acting as an undercover informant and Michael Griffin, a/k/a 'Griff,' a law enforcement officer, acting in an undercover capacity."
William L. McKinnon, Jr. and Sally B. Molloy, the two prosecutors in the case, like that charge so much they say the same thing three times, so this indictment has three counts.
The Way Back Story
Of course, this case is unfolding in the south where, William Faulkner observed, "The past is never dead. It's not even past."
FBI Case Agent Sewell has an interesting past. In May 2001, during a racketeering trial of seven men connected to an Atlanta stripper bar called The Gold Club, Sewell blew up multiple times in court after he was romantically linked to a club employee and alleged prostitute named Jennifer Moranello. At one point Sewell threw a videotape at one of the lawyers in that case.
Donald F. Samuel was among the attorneys in that courtroom that day. Samuel now represents Larry McDaniel.
McKinnon and Molloy don't want this case to go to trial. They simply want to use the federal judiciary as a weapon to punish McDaniel, King and Brown for frustrating the volatile Sewell.

The U.S. Senate has announced that anti-gun legislation will be heard on the floor next week. While that could change at any time, right now it means that your Second Amendment freedoms are on the chopping block, and you need to take immediate action to save them.
Senators are scheduled to vote on a so-called "universal background check" bill being pushed by lifelong anti-gun zealot, Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y). Schumer's bill--S. 374, the "Fix Gun Checks Act of 2013"-- would criminalize virtually all private firearm sales, even temporary transfers, making you a criminal if you simply transfer a firearm to an aunt, uncle, cousin or lifelong friend without the federal government's approval. Even worse, President Barack Obama's Justice Department says that Schumer's bill will only be effective if it's coupled with mandatory gun registration.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein's (D-Calif.) gun and magazine ban legislation (S. 150) will not be a part of the Senate's base gun control bill, but the Senate previously announced that Feinstein will be allowed to offer her legislation as an amendment.
Feinstein's legislation, which proposes to ban nearly every semi-automatic shotgun and detachable-magazine semi-automatic rifle, several other categories of firearms, and any ammunition magazine holding 11 or more rounds, will not be included in the Senate's gun control bill at the outset, out of concern that it would decrease the chance of Schumer's legislation being approved.
Don't be fooled. This legislation isn't about making Americans safer; it's about forwarding an anti-gun agenda that seeks to restrict firearm ownership in America--as much as they can, however they can, and as soon as they can.
Please act now! Call both of your U.S. Senators TODAY and tell them to vote "NO" on Schumer's "universal background check" bill. To identify and contact your legislators in Washington, D.C., you can use the "Write Your Reps" feature at www.NRAILA.org, or you can reach your member of Congress by phone at 202-224-3121.
To let people know what is going on in the United States, history, politics, social and economic issues in the United States. Mostly to criticize how government is taking away our freedoms and liberties.
