LEADER OF THE HOUSE
Chris Huhne: To ask the Leader of the House if he will co-ordinate a series of Tuesday morning briefings for new hon. Members by each principal Government Department on its work, with the exception of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. [12558]
Mr. Hoon: My right hon. Friends would obviously be more than happy to arrange briefing meetings at mutually convenient times with any new hon. Members on the work of their Department.
ENVIRONMENT, FOOD AND RURAL AFFAIRS
Mr. Meacher: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what help the UK Government plans to provide to (a) farmers and (b) milk retailers to ensure adequate supplies of important non-GM animal food. [11831]
Mr. Morley: The Government have no plans to provide specific help to farmers or milk retailers to ensure adequate supplies of imported non-GM feed for animals. This is a matter of choice, not safety, and market forces will operate to deliver feed derived from non-GM sources if there is sufficient demand from farmers and retailers. Legislation is already in place to ensure that animal feed derived from GM crops is labelled to enable farmers to make appropriate choices.
Methane Energy
Paul Flynn: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what estimate she has made of the amount of energy that will be generated from methane from (a) waste sites, (b) coal mines and (c) other sources in each of the next three years. [11318]
Mr. Morley: Estimates for energy generated from methane sources for the next three years are shown as thousand tonnes of oil equivalent (kTOE) in the following table:
Methane source
Operating deep mines 18 17 14
Abandoned mines 30 43 45
Landfill gas (electricity) 1,338 1,441 1,545
Landfill gas (heat) 14 14 14
Sewage gas (electricity) 170 178 187
Sewage gas (heat) 64 72 79
Anerobic digestion on farms minimal minimal minimal
1.Estimates from coal mines are based on current generation and projections for mine closures. Number of mines generating is less than number of mines open.
2.Estimates of energy generation from landfill and sewage gas are derived by linear interpolation, consistent with the most recent projections published by the Department of Trade and Industry for 2005 and 2010.
3.The number of digesters currently used for anaerobic digestion on farms in the UK is thought to be very small.
Bill Wiggin: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what the cost to date of the Environment Agency's Life Cycle Assessment on reusable and disposable nappies is; what estimate has been made of the cost of the further proposed LCA; when she expects the further LCA to be completed; and who will carry out the work. [11685]
Mr. Bradshaw: The cost of the Environment Agency's Life Cycle Assessment was £200,000, which, as well as the consultant and survey costs, includes Agency staff time.
The scope of the further work is currently being discussed with the Environment Agency and the Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP). Until this is determined in detail then it is not possible to determine the cost and who will carry out the work.
Bill Wiggin: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what measures she has put in place for assessing the (a) environmental and (b) economic effects of the WRAP Real Nappy Programme; and whether it will be (i) independently audited and (ii) made publicly available. [11717]
Mr. Bradshaw: From a waste management perspective, Government's view is that use of real nappies will help the UK to meet tough EU Landfill Directive targets, which are designed to reduce environmental damage and improve resource productivity by reducing reliance on landfill.
The Environment Agency's recently published Life Cycle Assessment has helped to provide an understanding of the environmental impact of disposables and the traditional type of re-usable nappy. The main conclusion of the study is that the overall environmental impact of disposable and reusable nappies is similar.
The study, carried out in 2002–03, showed that terry (towelling) nappies were the main type of reusable nappy used. However, this does not reflect recent increases in the proportion of other types of reusable nappies. Further work will be undertaken to look at the environmental impacts of more modern reusables.
WRAP reports annually on its overall progress in meeting targets, including work under the Real Nappy Programme. Future assessments will be based, for example, on information from funded schemes and from opinion research to be conducted at the end of the year.
Norman Baker: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what her policy
is in respect of the draft EU Directive on the welfare of broiler chickens, with particular reference to minimum space allocations per bird. [5886]
Mr. Laurence Robertson: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what plans she has to reduce the stocking densities of broiler chickens; and if she will make a statement. [6138]
Mr. Bradshaw: The European Commission has recently published proposals for a Council Directive laying down minimum rules, including a two-tier stocking density, for the protection of chickens kept for meat production.
The Government are looking forward to working, during the UK's presidency of the EU Council of Ministers, with the Commission and other member states to progress the proposed directive. We will be holding a full public consultation on the proposals shortly.
Mr. Hollobone: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what recent assessment she has made of the threat to the UK poultry industry from avian flu. [12109]
Mr. Bradshaw [holding answer 14 July 2005]: If there is an outbreak of disease in an exporting country Defratakes appropriate emergency safeguard action inaccordance with Community legislation. This may include a ban on imports of animals and animal products from all, or parts, of that country.
Safeguard measures in relation to Avian influenza (Al) were put in place for affected Asian countries in January 2004 and have since been extended to 30 September 2005. Restrictions were placed on South African imports in August 2004 and have now been extended to 31 December 2005.
The assessment of risk to the UK poultry flock of Avian influenza began in 2004 and is continuously reviewed. When there is an outbreak in a country a
specific risk assessment is carried out by DEFRA experts. These assessments are published in the Vet Record Quarterly and also on DEFRA's own public website http://defraweb/animalh/diseases/monitoring/).
In the event of an outbreak of Avian influenza in poultry in this country DEFRA would immediately invoke its exotic animal disease generic contingency plan, which sets out measures for the management of an outbreak of Avian influenza. The plan has been the subject of a formal public consultation exercise, in particular taking on board comments from the UK poultry industry.
Mike Penning: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what estimate her Department has made of the loss of rainforest habitat in square miles in each year since 1997; and if she will make a statement. [11741]
Mr. Morley: Information on forest loss is published by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations. The FAO estimate that the net percentage of forest cover lost worldwide between 1990 and 2000 was 2.37 per cent. This represents an estimated total worldwide loss in forest cover between 1990 and 2000 of 362, 834 miles 2 .
This information is only available for all types of forest cover and in set assessment cycles. The last assessment cycle was to 2000, it is not possible to isolate figures from 1997, or just for rainforests.
Please see the table which summarises the current global data available for forest resources by region.
Forest cover date for individual countries may be found in the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2000 Main Report". This is published by the FAO and is available online via the following web link:http://www.fao.org/forestry/fo/fra/main/index.jsp

Mike Penning: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if she will make a statement on UK policy towards protection of rainforest habitat. [11742]
Mr. Morley: The UK Government are concerned about the loss of rainforest habitats, and we are working with rainforest countries to promote sustainable development around the world. We recognise the efforts of Brazilian and other Governments to address the problems in the Amazon region and are working together to promote sustainable forest management and the implementation of policies on the ground.
To that end, Defra is working closely in conjunction on this issue with the Department for International Development and the Foreign Office.
The UK Government are involved with a number of initiatives. In Brazil the Government have contributed £14 million to the multi-donor pilot programme for the preservation of Brazilian rain forests. In addition the UK is a major contributor to the global environment facility (GEF) that is creating and maintaining protected areas in the region through the Amazon region protected areas programme. The managers of the GEF have approved or endorsed funding for 29 projects in Brazil, with a value of approximately £150 million.
The UK continues to support projects in the Amazon through multilateral organisations, including the European Commission and the World Bank.
The UK Government also recognises the role that trade can play in promoting sustainable rainforest management. Within the EU Britain is taking a leading role in championing an action plan on forest law enforcement, Governance and trade, which is aimed at
combating illegal logging and international trade in illegally harvested timber. And since 1976 Britain has been a signatory to the Washington Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species.

Haiti is under siege in certain areas and even the police respect no-go zones in some parts of Port-au-Prince.
Haiti's 15,735-member national police force is being outgunned by gangs and paramilitary units within its own ranks.
Courts have been shut down for two months following police brutality against the clerk of the court and lawyers in October 2018.
The US State Department warned American citizens not to travel to Haiti and authorized certain non-essential diplomatic personnel and their families to leave.
There is a lot of corruption in Haiti and the police force is divided, with some ignoring orders from their police chief, taking orders directly from the palace.
Officers are being burned alive and accused of staging killings in neighborhoods and controlling gangs, some of whom have exchanged gunfire with cops, while dressed as cops, reported the Miami Herald.
In the meantime, the United Nations Mission for Justice Support in Haiti has reduced its presence and is preparing to remove its support even further.
That's right, when the going gets rough, the Useless United Nations gets going!
Please pray for law enforcement and the stability of the Haitian government and peace in the region, especially in areas where God's people are working to feed the hungry and provide clothes and shelter.
The Love A Child Ministry is there in Haiti, with Missionaries Bobby and Sherry Burnette, who work endlessly with their staff to feed the hungry and provide care for many families and orphans at their complex. Please pray for their safety, as well as the safety of all the families and children who live at the orphanage and in the little homes built in their community.
Haiti is considered one of the poorest, if not the poorest nation in the world. The Love A Child Ministry is one of the most accountable nonprofit ministries in the world, as 94 percent of their donations are used for program services in Haiti, and only 3 percent for administration and another 3 percent for fundraising.
Please consider making a donation to care for malnourished children who scavenge through the dump for food every day, and for children who live at the orphanage and families who also live, work and receive help in the program. LoveAChild.
Chicago residents saw up to a foot of snow in some areas during one of the worst November snowstorms (the fifth highest) in Chicago history.
ComEd reported 339,000 customers were without power Sunday, and more than 800 flights were canceled at O'Hare and Midway Airports during the busiest travel day of the Thanksgiving holiday. An additional 791 more flights were canceled as of 9:40 am Monday, reported Chicago.CBSLocal.com.
This may be just the start of what the Lord showed me in a vision five days ago, on 11/22/18 (see the Signs and Wonders In Heaven and Earth page: https://nowprophecy.wordpress.com/signs-and-wonders-in-heaven-and-earth/).
11/22/18: I saw signs of heavy snowfall and snow in lower altitude places, where there generally isn't much, or any snow at all. I also saw signs of beasts attacking other beasts, beasts attacking more humans, and people eating all kinds of animals (like pet dogs) to stay alive. Sea turtles are going to die-off in greater numbers, as will birds.
During the persecutions of Protestants by the Roman Catholics in Britain and Ireland, a pious woman was burned alive at Chippen Sudburne, by order of the chancellor, Dr Whittenham. After she had been consumed in the flames and the people were returning home, a bull broke loose from a butcher and singling out the chancellor from all the rest of the company, he gored him through the body and carried his entrails on his horns. This was seen by all the people and it is remarkable that the animal did not attack any other person. This pitiful woman was burned alive at the stake for refusing Catholic heresy – all in the name of God (the god of Catholics, who is Lucifer)!
Rene Krupinski reported a strange humming sound in the skies over Sweden. He filmed the event and posted it to You Tube on January 1, 2018. It is only now circulating throughout the internet. It caught my attention when it was published on DrudgeReport.com a few days ago.
Scientists, using artificial intelligence, found mysterious deep space flashes and rapid radio bursts that they are unable to explain.
The University of California, Berkeley, Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Research Center, led by Gerry Zhang, found 93 light pulses called fast radio bursts (FRBs) in deep space.
The Berkeley research team is part of a $100 million project funded by Yuri Milner to locate signs of intelligent alien life. A third of the funding will be spent on telescope time alone.
Initially, astronomers with the Breakthrough Listen project found 21 FRBs on August 26, 2017. Now, the count is 93, but they still don't know what they are.
…but I also want to cry when I think of the humanitarian aid that amount of money ($100 million) would produce, as people are dying of thirst, lack of clean water, and starvation in various parts of the world.
The globalists call it "food insecurity," while people are starving to death!
Again, "food insecure" people. They should say people suffering untold MISERY from starvation!
With all of his accolades and billions, Yuri, and his billionaire-trillionaire colleagues will still face God Almighty at the end of this life and have to give an account of what they could have done for the suffering, even dying children.
Isn't that tragic? With all of the excitement and distractions of his achievements, investments, business ventures and wealth, in this temporary vapor of a life, he has "minimal" time for the most important One of all — God!
Wow, I wonder how that is going to play out on Judgment Day.
Sadly, unless there is a change in their hearts regarding the greatest investments and achievements – those extending into eternity – they will all end up "bankrupt" on Judgment Day.
People have reported trumpet and shofar sounds, magnificent lights in the skies preceding earthquakes, strange loud booms, UFO and orb sightings, crop circles, strange cloud formations and other anomalies throughout the world in recent years.
Jesus said there would be "fearful sights and great signs from heaven" signaling His return (Luke 21). This is happening throughout the world right now and there are some who can actually see angelic beings, their craft (as seen by Ezekiel, chapter 1) and other prophetic signs and wonders. This is referred to as discernment and being able to see in the Spirit, and are among the gifts of the Spirit (1 Corinthians 12) and the many benefits that come with "trusting in Him" (Psalms 91:2), making the "Most High your habitation" (Psalms 91:9), "setting your love upon Him" and "knowing His name" (Psalms 91:14).
If I wrote about everything I experienced and the things I see in the Spirit, I doubt anyone would believe me, even many "Christians," and I would have zero credibility to write anything else; but if I see something that pertains to prophecy, I will write about it now, because the time has come to sound the alarm!
According to a Gallup poll, more than half of Venezuelans between the ages of 15 and 29 want to leave the country.
Why? Because they are starving!
Instead of completing his internship in a top hospital, Diaga is taking a job in a fast-food restaurant in Argentina. He and his family will be able to eat!
More than half a million Venezuelans have fled to Colombia during the last six months of 2017.
The New York Times reported doctors in Venezuela are seeing hundreds of children die from malnutrition.
Uribe recited this blasphemous prayer in front of an enlarged image of Chavez, and before the Venezuelan Socialist Congress, for which Congress gave applause!
They had no fear of God, replacing the name of our heavenly Father with the name of a dead man!
Is anyone surprised that they are now suffering such a humanitarian crisis and even starvation?
Yours is not the homeland, you have no peace, and you are losing your lives now – and forever – unless you repent!
Hugo Chavez was a Socialist dictator, and everyone should know this always happens in a Socialist country; this always happens in a Communist country; this always happens in a Leninist country; the same goes for a Marxist dictatorship!
Look at the examples of America and Israel, two of the most blessed nations in the world. What is the common denominator? FREEDOM!
Folks, if you want your country to end up just like Venezuela, Germany during WWII, Russia in the 1930s, China during Mao Zedong's deadly dictatorship, then just vote for someone like Hillary, Bernie Sanders, or just about any Democratic Luciferian-Liberal-Progressive-Socialist-Marxist-Leninist-Communist running for office in 2020!
In other words, if you have a death wish, just vote for a Democrat! They will be happy to raise your taxes, take away your guns, ruin the economy and see you starve to death in the streets in the end; because they are Socialist globalists and they truly believe the world is about 97 percent overpopulated (they believe 97 percent of us should be dead, because the population exceeds 500,000,000 – by far).
Let me break this down a bit further; they want about six and a-half billion+, yes billion, of us dead! They have actually placed a monument in Georgia, called the Georgia Guidestones, displaying that fact (1st Tenet, Keep the population under 500,000,000).
"The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God" Psalms 9:17.
The real presence in the host (Jesus literally exists in the bread and wine of sacrament).
Transubstantiation (wafer and wine of sacrament literally turn into the flesh and blood of Jesus).
The Pope's infallibility (that he is literally God in the flesh).
That Masses said for the dead will release souls from purgatory.
That praying to the saints will procure the remission of sins.
That to believe the real presence in the host is a shocking union of both blasphemy and idolatry.
That to fancy the words of consecration perform what the papists call transubstantiation, by converting the wafer and wine into the real and identical body and blood of Christ, which was crucified, and which afterward ascended into heaven, is too gross an absurdity for even a child to believe, who was come to the last glimmering of reason; and that nothing but the most blind superstition could make the Roman Catholics put a confidence in anything so completely ridiculous.
That the doctrine of purgatory was more inconsistent and absurd than a fairy tale.
That the pope's being infallible was an impossibility and the pope arrogantly laid claim to what could belong to God only, as a perfect being.
That saying Masses for the dead was ridiculous and only meant to keep up a belief in the fable of purgatory, as the fate of all is finally decided on the departure of the soul from the body.
That praying to saints for the remission of sins is misplacing adoration, as the saints themselves have occasion for an intercessor in Christ. Therefore, as God only can pardon our errors, we ought to pray to Him alone for pardon.
The priests were so highly offended at Mr Rambaut's answers to the articles to which they would have had him subscribe, that they determined to shake his resolution by the most cruel method imaginable: they ordered one joint of his finger to be cut off every day, until all his fingers were gone; they then proceeded in the same manner with his toes; afterward they alternately cut off a hand daily, and a foot, but finding that he bore his sufferings with the most admirable patience, increased both in fortitude and resignation, and maintained his faith with steadfast resolution and unshaken constancy, they stabbed him to the heart and then gave his body to be devoured by the dogs.
On the brink of famine? Take a look at the suffering, starvation and death, and you decide for yourself if famine hasn't long arrived in Somalia!
Ethiopia: The number of people needing emergency food aid has grown 39 percent since January to 7.8 million.
Kenya: 2.7 million people need food assistance and the number is expected to reach 3.5 million.
South Sudan: 6 million people are severely food insecure, up from 4.9 million in February.
Somalia: 6.7 million people face acute food insecurity, up from 6.2 million in February.
People in Ethiopia, Kenya, South Sudan and Somalia, 23.2 million, are suffering famine – they are DYING!
PEOPLE ARE THIRSTY, STARVING TO DEATH, DYING OF THIRST AND HUNGER, EMERGENCY – EMERGENCY – EMERGENCY, PEOPLE ARE DYING, SUFFERING – SUFFERING – SUFFERING!!!
Folks, I have to be honest. I am extremely suspicious of this shaded vocabulary and mellowed-out report and request for help from World Vision. Albeit, I give monthly and dedicate the Famine page to sponsor World Vision, because I know of no other Christian organization that helps victims of famine on the levels they have globally.
We know the globalist eugenicists want these people to die and they can't see them dying fast enough!
Contrarily, we expect Christian organizations, like World Vision, to be forthcoming and truthful about this crisis and not make attempts to marginalize it with lame descriptions/vocabulary.
Let's pray that even though they have diminished their representation of the emergency crisis, famine, that they at least continue to help those who are suffering with the same standards they have in the past.
"Nation shall rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places" Matthew 24:7 (emphasis added).
Verbal threats are one thing, but Japan suffered a hair-raising alarm when North Korea launched another missile over Japan Friday morning (Asia time). The missile flew over Japan's northern island Hokkaido before landing in the Pacific.
The Useless United Nations Security Council met at 7 pm, as requested by the United States and Japan.
Let's hope everyone in the US, Japan and South Korea are geared up for a possible electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack by North Korea, or worse, because the little fat dude seems capable.
"Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places" Matthew 24:7.

1,200 Lightning Strikes Hit San Francisco, 40,000 In California In 24 Hours!
≈ Comments Off on 1,200 Lightning Strikes Hit San Francisco, 40,000 In California In 24 Hours!
The National Weather Service reported on Tuesday that 1,200 cloud to ground lightning strikes and 5,800 in-cloud strikes hit the San Francisco Bay area Monday night.
In all, 40,000 lightning strikes hit the State of California within 24 hours. This is indeed very strange activity in the heavens.
I would be more than a bit concerned at this point, especially considering the liberal, fornicating, abominable lifestyle of many who live in the San Francisco area.
"And it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunders and lightnings and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud, so that the people that were in the camp trembled…And the Lord came down on Mount Sinai, on the top of the mount, and the Lord called Moses up to the top of the mount, and Moses went up" Exodus 19:16, 20.
We know from testimonies written in the Word of God that the presence of the Lord emits lightning.
"For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words" 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18.
"For as the lightning comes out of the east and shines even unto the west, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be" Matthew 24:27.
We are seeing great earthquakes, the waves roaring with the storms, signs in heaven and according to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famine, "Famine continues to be a worldwide problem with hundreds of millions of people suffering" (even though American propagandized media avoids reporting it).
American actress Jennifer Lawrence, during her interview with a British network to promote her recent movie Mother!, said that "mother nature's wrath" is raging because President Donald Trump is ignoring climate change.
Lawrence wears a crescent moon on her neck, if you noticed in her photo above, which alludes to the satanic influence she is under.
The crescent moon represents "Lucifer, son of the morning" (Isaiah 14:12), or his Muslim cohorts (the antichrist kingdom), whose crescent moon sits atop every mosque. Either way, even her jewelry alludes to who she represents. Satan worshipers often sport the crescent moon, as do Muslims.
Jennifer Lawrence made $46 million last year alone, so she is paid very well to laud Lucifer's agenda and rally up Trump haters, one of only a few US Presidents in history that has lifted up the name of God publicly.
Albeit, Lawrence would have you believe that "mother nature" is executing her wrath upon us, because President Trump is in office.
Lawrence has publicly stated that anti-Trump activists need to "rage" against him and she has publicly cursed him.
The Liberal Luciferian Lunatics (LLLs) have done everything in their power to start civil unrest, riots and race wars since President Trump started his campaign for the presidency, and they are still promoting rage.
This is what Lucifer and his subjects do – rage.
"Why do the heathen rage and imagine a vain thing. The kings of the earth set themselves, and rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against His anointed, saying, 'Let us break their bands asunder and cast away their cords from us.' He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall have them in derision" Psalms 2:1-4.
No, Lawrence, it isn't "mother nature's wrath" that is pounding the earth; it just so happens to be the wrath of Almighty God for the sins committed by the inhabitants of the world.
"Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand" Isaiah 82:2.
"You will be visited of the Lord of hosts with thunder and with earthquake and great noise, with storm and tempest, and with the flame of devouring fire" Isaiah 29:6.
No, it isn't man that controls the weather, it is God Almighty who controls it against those who would dare kill millions of unborn babies, to whom God has given life, and not only kill them, but dissect their body parts and sell them for gain!
It is God Almighty, Creator of all things, who exacts judgment against those who kidnap, molest, torture and often kill little children, which abominations are prevalent in the world today, especially among heads of state, LLL politicians and their cohorts.
It is God Almighty who exacts judgment through severe weather against those who cast poor widows and the fatherless from their homes for monetary gain and who have turned their backs on the starving, thirsty and orphans of the world, who hold over $100 million, such as yourself, Lawrence, who have the power and money to relieve the impoverished, along with your Luciferian Illuminati cohorts, who have millions and billions to end the suffering of those born in poverty, but you hoard it instead. You will face God on Judgment Day and be cast into the lake of fire, unless you repent.
God is actually issuing pre-Judgment warnings to the world, if her inhabitants will listen and repent!
"If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land" 2 Chronicles 7:14.

Love is Never Best Played Out on TV...
Adalyn Stalling's clients convinced her to be a contestant on their reality TV show, The One. Hundreds of thousands of viewers tune in each week to watch a group of bachelorettes try to win one bachelor's heart, and then during the next season, watch bachelors do the same.
Adi appeared on the show twice-once as a potential love-match for the bachelor, once as the bachelorette. As a marketing executive for the firm who handles the show, Adi initially became a part of the cast in order to learn more from the "inside." But as much as she wanted to stay professionally removed, she ended up giving her heart to both Adam and Connor.
Both times, the men broke it off.
Now America's most famous "loser at love," Adalyn is trying to pick up the pieces of her life. Given the media frenzy and the paparazzi that chase her, she's finding it difficult. And just as she learns she may have picked up a stalker, her childhood friend, Chase Rollins, tracks her down at last. He informs her that her beloved grandfather is ailing and needs her help, in more ways than one.
So begins an epic summer in which Adalyn needs to decide where she belongs, what she is supposed to do, and with whom she might find true love at last. All Once Upon a Montana Summer...

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun, clean contemporary romance with a dash of suspense
Lisa T. Bergren has a knack for making places come to life and characters thrive in her stories. Once Upon a Montana Summer is no exception. Adi was a wonderful character and role model. How she handled all the ups and downs—from her grandpa being set in his ways to the stalker and even Chase's pursuit of her—is admirable. If you want a story with a smart, well-to-do, sometimes stubborn but mainly loving main character, this book has it.
In addition, Chase is adorable and swoon-worthy and basically what every girl should want in a guy. He wasn't unbelievable in his actions or dialogue. He was actually kind of a big dork that really loves wildlife, which only made him more adorable. There were times where he literally made me crack up while reading.
The side characters were intriguing as well. I love the spotlight on a grandfather-granddaughter relationship because I don't often see those in books. Gramps was a fun character, and I like how he helped Adi understand life to its fullest. I also like Chase's sister-in-law, Bea. She was just amazing and deserves her own story. (*wink wink*)
But what captured me the most about the story was the setting. Glacier, Montana is a real place, and Lisa literally brought it to life with her gorgeous descriptions. While reading, I started looking up information about visiting Glacier National Park because her writing made me want to visit the place myself, which isn't the first time her stories had conjured wanderlust in me. (I'm still waiting on that trip to Italy...)
I also liked the plot of the story. As I've said, I don't usually care for contemporary romance, but the added layer of Adi's famous status along with the stalker was not only intriguing, but it was nerve-wracking! Near the end, I was practically biting my nails to see how it all turned out. It was way more intense than I expected, but in the best possible way.
Overall, Once Upon a Montana Summer is a sweet contemporary romance with a sometimes sappy and predictable relationship but with an added dash of suspense. I think anybody looking for a fun, quick, clean romance would enjoy this book.

My Favorite Pastime
5.0 out of 5 stars once upon a montana summer
Adalyn Stalling has lost twice in love. As first a contestant on the TV show THE ONE she thought she was going to be the one picked-but another was chosen- the next season she was asked to be the star of the show and choose among many bachelors. Once again Adi found love, and yet once again it fell through. Now known as "America's Sucker-Punched Sweetheart" Adi's boss is asking her to take a leave of absence-just until the media backs off. But Adi has picked up a stalker. Enter Chase Rollins. Chase is a childhood friend who arrives just in time to help Adi escape to her childhood home in Glacier Montana. Adi arrives to see that her grandfather is in poor health and has let their tourist cabins fall into disrepair. She sets in to renovate and get the cabins fixed for the summer tourist season. Adi also spends time getting to know Chase-her childhood friend and crush. Mending her broken heart, Adi hopes that nobody will recognize her. What none of them count on is how determined Adi's stalker is to find her.
I really enjoyed ONCE UPON A MONTANA SUMMER. I loved the setting of Montana. The descriptions were beautiful. I loved the romance between Chase and Adi that bloomed at a carful and carefree pace. And lastly I loved the bit of suspense with the stalker. Reading his plans and thoughts kept the story moving along at an exciting pace.
While I enjoy a good series, I really enjoy when a book has everything I need in one volume; romance, suspense and a "happily ever after". Lisa T. Bergren never disappoints in a new story and she is always a favorite of mine. I highly recommend ONCE UPON A MONTANA SUMMER, you won't be disappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun contemporary romance
"Life is full of broken eggs, Adi girl. The trick is to figure out how to be a good omelette maker."
This is the first book by Lisa Bergren I have read and I cannot believe I've waited this long to pick up one of her books. Once Upon Montana Summer is a contemporary romance with quite a bit of suspense thrown in for good measure. The writing is fluid and easy to read and the plot is cohesive. The characters are memorable and so easy to love (except the stalker, of course....he's totally scary). Adi is a strong woman but sensitive and heartbroken after being humiliated twice on reality dating shows on national TV. Chase is a protective park ranger who's always loved Adi and is there for her when Adi needs to hide away from the paparazzi. Then a stalker enters the scene and makes the storyline and the relationship between Adi and Chase more intense. If you enjoy a well-written contemporary romance with a bit of suspense, you will love this book.

To welcome patients of every age with any visual problem and provide a friendly environment where patients can receive excellent eyecare using the latest technology.
Ptosis is a condition in which the eyelid droops. It is caused by a weakness or separation of muscles deep within the eyelid. Ptosis does not involve excess skin or tissue in the eyelid (a condition called dermatochalasis). It is usually a result of aging, but some people develop ptosis after eye surgery or an injury, and some children are born with the condition. A brief surgical procedure can eliminate the drooping. Many young patients with mild to moderate ptosis do not need surgery early in life. Patients who are also suffering from excess skin may choose to undergo blepharoplasty at the same time as ptosis repair. Children with ptosis should be examined regularly to check for other vision problems including amblyopia ("lazy eye"), refractive errors and muscular diseases.
Blepharoplasty can rejuvenate puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes by removing excess fat, skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. It may be performed for cosmetic reasons or to improve sight by lifting droopy eyelids out of the patient's field of vision. Blepharoplasty can be combined with BOTOX® treatments to raise the eyebrows or reduce the appearance of wrinkles, crow's feet or dark circles under the eyes.
The procedure is usually performed in an office with local anesthesia and lasts 45 minutes to a few hours depending on how much work is done. Incisions are made along the eyelids in inconspicuous places (in the creases of the upper lids, and just below the lashes on the lower lids). The surgeon removes excess tissue through these incisions and then stitches them closed with fine sutures. In the case that no skin needs to be removed, the surgeon will likely perform a transconjunctival blepharoplasty, where the incision is made inside the lower eyelid and there are no visible scars.
Stitches are removed after a week and most people return to work relatively soon after the procedure. Contact lenses may not be worn for two weeks. The effects of blepharoplasty can last for a long time and are sometimes even permanent.
Ectropion/Entropion Repair
Ectropion is a "turning out" of the eyelid that causes redness, irritation, tearing and an increased likelihood of infection. Common causes of ectropion include aging, sun damage, tumors, burns and the removal of too much skin during blepharoplasty. Artificial tears can help provide temporary relief from dryness. Ectropion can be corrected in a quick procedure in which the lid is tightened. Occasionally, the surgeon needs to graft a small segment of skin to ensure that the eyelid is fully repaired.
Entropion is a "turning in" of the eyelid. The lid and lashes rub painfully against the cornea. Entropion usually occurs as a result of aging, but other causes can include injury, congenital defect and various inflammatory conditions. A spasm can cause the lid to turn inward. Entropion can be corrected with a brief surgical procedure under local anesthesia.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is commonly used to reduce or eliminate the appearance of facial wrinkles. It is injected under the skin into areas surrounding the eyes, forehead and mouth to smooth crow's feet, frown and worry lines, and lines on the neck. Made from a purified protein, BOTOX® relaxes wrinkles and gives the face a rejuvenated look. BOTOX® may also be useful for migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and eye and neck muscle spasms.
Juvéderm® Injectable Gel is a safe, effective gel that restores volume to the skin and smoothes away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. Juvéderm® is the first FDA-approved dermal filler proven safe and effective for persons of color. The Juvéderm® gel is made of hyaluronic acid with a smooth consistency, allowing for easy injections and instant, natural-looking results. There is no pre-testing needed for this procedure.
Topical or injectable anesthesia may be used during this procedure to numb the treatment area and minimize any potential discomfort. The results of this procedure are available right away and can usually last for up to a year, the longest results available from any hyaluronic acid product.

Life on Earth, forever?
Thread starter Algren

"Life on Earth, forever?" Well obviously NOT, that looks more like a fairytale.
When is the time when 1000 humans have left and have/not returned to the surface, according to the current trend?
And, if we consider development, and emerging of new Space-countries, what will be the answer for the same?
DaveC426913
Your thoughts are disjointed and terse. I had to read your post three times to understand it.
Well, seeing as our current tally is zero, there is no trend as yet.
qraal
No reason why we should leave in toto. Why do you think humans are leaving Earth forever?
Nik_2213
When the Sun ages and inflates towards 'Red Giant' phase would be a good time to vacate planet. Okay, there's several billion years to go, and there'd be several millenia warning-- Our distant descendants could probably wait for Mercury to be engulfed before starting to react...
By then, I'd hope there were several functional 'beanstalks', if theory advances haven't given us 'antigravity'...
And humans wouldn't even be humans anymore.
Radrook
There is another scenario that might develop that involves the earch assuming an orbit farther from the sun than it is now due to the decrease in solar gravity. Consideration of this possibility is based on observation of what is assumed occured with a planet, V391 pegasi b orbiting a star such as our own which went through the red giant stage and is now a white dwarf.
Red Giant Sun May Not Destroy Earth
The first glimpse of a planet that survived its star's red giant phase is offering a glimmer of hope that Earth might make it past our sun's eventual expansion.
The newfound planet, dubbed V391 Pegasi b, is much larger than Earth but likely orbited its star as closely as our planet orbits the sun...When the aging star mushroomed into a red giant about a hundred times its previous size, V391 Pegasi b was pushed out to an orbit nearly twice as far away.

Exactly. If we somehow manage not to destroy ourselves, there is no telling how "humans" will look like in a 1000 of years, let alone in millions or billions of years. Even if we went back to stone age tomorrow, and forgot about genetic engineering etc. in two, three million years we would look completely different.
As for OP question, I think it is not unimaginable that the life on Earth will last "forever" (forever i.e. untill the planet is destroyed). And by life I mean "a life" not human life. There is currently no known threat (short of gamma ray burst maybe?) that could completely sterilize the earth. Even full on nuclear exchange could not kill all the bacteria in earth, ocean, atmosphere. There are deep caves and hot volcanoes that host life, that can be safely regarded as independent of human affairs.

Cantstandit said:
Gamma rays could do it, also a sufficient sized meteor/comet impact could physically break the planet up which would probably kill almost everything - although I grant some extremophiles may survive in ice/rock even though this may be unlikely.
Exactly. If we somehow manage not to destroy ourselves, there is no telling how "humans" will look like in a 1000 of years, .
What makes you think that humans will undergo such a drastic transformation in a mere thousand years? As we go back in time thousands of years we find that ancient Egyptians Babylonians, Sumerians were as human as we are. Please consider the Egyptian, and other human mummified remains as well as skeletal remains that go back several or more thousand years.

About the OPED.
If indeed mankind were to find its home threateneed by a bloating sun at that advanced time it's hard to imagine that it would lack the technological resources to respond effectively in order to protect itself or its home. it would have plenty of time to prepare. Some have suggested a purposeful nudging of earth into a higher orbit in order to compensate for the sun's bloating. A placement of an asteroid or asteroids in orbit about the earth has been suggested as a way to gradually accomplish this.

Radrook said:
The sun increasing in size is a process that will occur over hundreds of millions of years. Hypothesising about what a possible sentient species on Earth could do at such time is rather pointless.
^ Transhumanism
There will be some form of biological activity on the planet until it is a whirl of atoms in the sun.
I realize that, but think about genetic engineering. In a hundred years or so you will probably be able to choose hair, eye and skin color of your child (or even yourself). And the standard for beauty changes very quickly, think what was considered beautiful 50 and 300 years ago. I think in a 1000 years time people could look like weirdos for us without even trying.
The problem is this: choices for hair colour/eye colour etc are already active genomes. So we can chop/change them all we like. I doubt there would be any major evolutionary change to any complex species in a mere thousand years (lets say 50 generations with everyone having children at 20.)
50 generations will not do much biologically, even if we are actively making genetic decisions.
Please see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_evolution for an idea of the timescales involved.
Cosmo Novice said:
Heh, I really know what timescales are involved, I have recently read two books on evolution. But it is not the only force at work. Evolutionary changes in 1000 years will be minuscule, sure, but I was talking about artificial changes dictated by cultural changes, which (compared to evolution) are very fast. Today you can only change existing active genomes, but who says what will be possible in 50-100 years? I don't want to post more OT posts, I just felt you had an impression I don't know what evolution is, while I do. I had to correct you, it's important, you are a person on the Internet ;)
The problem is this - lets say that in 50-100 years people start actively modifying DNA, the program would need to be extensive to have any impact on the human races evolution as a whole - think of the costs involved and also that socio-economically it is the poorer countries with the larger populations. My point is that any genetic modifications are a small drop in the ocean of humanity.
I do understand what you are putting forward, I just think the timescales you have outlined are extremely unrealistic as they are too short - IMO.
Always good to have a discussion.
Ryan_m_b said:
These far-future scenarioes and the ways in which mankind might respond to them are being discussed by scientists on a regular basis. Exactly where along the time continuum, in your personal opinion, will such discussions cease to be pointless?
I thought you were referring to evolutionary changes.
Nicely put Radrook. There is a physics point to this sort of discussion IMO, in that defining the likely life-span of Observers in cosmological terms tells us something about our present situation. Similarly discussions about the apparent "Cosmological Coincidence" that the mass-energy density and lambda/Dark-Energy are observed to be similar in size. In both "early" and "late" cosmological epochs this isn't necessarily so, which poses the conundrum as to why we observe the current near-unity of their ratio.
According to work by Greg Laughlin, Fred Adams and Peter Bodenheimer, stars should continue shining in the Galaxy at roughly the same observed level for the next ~trillion years. Low-mass stars, as they go off the Main Sequence, brighten significantly and experience a period of luminosity comparable to the Sun for ~5 billion years, enough time for Observers to evolve around any planets at ~Earth-like distances. As red-dwarfs are the most common stars in the Galaxy, then why don't we observe ourselves on one during its late-life blossoming? Why are we still in the "early days" of stellar evolution in orbit around a relatively high-mass star?
These are all valid questions, leading to fertile investigations in astrophysical processes, as evidence by the papers by Laughlin, Adams & Bodenheimer, for example. Late-time "speculation" is like any other astrophysical gedankenexperimenten and thus well worthwhile.
I'm not sure I have an answer to that, whilst it's amusing to discuss presupposing whether or not humans will even exist in hundreds of millions of years and then asking what they might do at that point really doesn't make much sense. We could ask "what could we conceive of now if we had to deal with the issue now" but that is different to "what will we do in hundreds of millions of years."
We differ in our definition of what constitutes the meaning of the word "senseless" in relation to discussions. So I guess we will simply have to agree to disagree on that point.

De tweede Europese kampioenschappen atletiek werden in 1938 op twee verschillende plaatsen gehouden. De kampioenschappen voor mannen vond plaats van 3 tot 5 september in de Franse hoofdstad Parijs. Het kampioenschap bij de vrouwen vond plaats van 17 tot 18 september in de Oostenrijkse hoofdstad Wenen. In totaal waren er 32 titels te vergeven, waarvan 23 voor mannen en negen voor vrouwen. Het was het eerste kampioenschap waaraan vrouwen mochten deelnemen, en tevens de enige keer dat het kampioenschap voor beide geslachten op verschillende locaties werd afgewerkt.

Naast de vele kampioenschapsrecords werd er deze editie één Europees record en één wereldrecord verbeterd. Beide records werden gevestigd bij het hordelopen. De Brit Don Finlay verbeterde met 14,3 s het Europees record op de 110 m horden en de Italiaanse Claudia Testoni verpulverde met 11,6 het wereldrecord op de 80 m horden.

This Flamin' Hot Cheetos Bagel Is All the Reason You Need to Go to Jersey
By Amy Schulman Published On 02/24/2017
If you were hoping the over-the-top bagel fad would just slip into oblivion along with the rest of the insane food trends from the past year (pizza inside pizza, donuts inside donuts), we're sorry to announce that it's alive and well -- and now, covered in Hot Cheetos. The bagel wizards at The Bagel Nook in Freehold, New Jersey (about an hour and a half from NYC) have dreamt up a collection of snack food-inspired bagels made with Flamin' Hot Cheetos, Oreos, Doritos, and Fruity Pebbles. Yes, you can now shamelessly enjoy Hot Cheetos for breakfast.
To find out how the bagels get made, we stopped by The Bagel Nook to watch it all go down. For the Flamin' Hot Cheetos Overload bagel, orange-and-red Flamin' Hot Cheetos dough is boiled, dunked in Cheetos dust, then baked, sliced, and coated with homemade ghost pepper cream cheese, before getting finished off with a sprinkling of even more Flamin' Hot Cheetos dust. If you're looking for something that won't set your mouth on fire, go for one of the sweet options, like the Fruity Pebble Overload bagel, stuffed with Funfetti cream cheese and fresh strawberries.
To find out more about The Bagel Nook's insane bagel concoctions, check out the video above.

Just dip an AquaChek Yellow strip in your pool or spa water for one second, and remove it immediately. You get test results in seconds! To keep your pool at its best, test at each end at least twice a week, and test your spa before each use. It's also a good idea to write down your results each time you test, so you can track changes.

I guess it's not too surprising that no matter where you go on the planet, no matter what the cultural background of the people, the one thing we're all going to have in common is some means or other of being able to bang out a rhythm. It was probably something the species picked up on shortly after the discovery of fire on our climb up the evolutionary ladder.
You can picture it can't you? A bunch of our early kin sitting around the fire, and one of them, there's always somebody like it in every crowd, has a nervous twitch and with the bone he'd been just chewing on starts to tap on the hollow log beside him. He soon discovers he can change the sound he's making by how hard he hits the log, how many times he hits it in a row, and that he can also make patterns with the sound.
It was the Greeks who gave us the beginnings of the word we use today to describe the pattern made by sound, coming from their word meaning to flow: rhythmos. But I'm sure that the cultures that predated or co-existed with the founders of Western thought had their own words for the same idea. In the days when everything was done by hand, from lighting a fire by rubbing two sticks together or striking two rocks, the rhythm of life was ever present and obvious.
Even in the age of machines and industrialization a kind of rhythm could be heard via the clanging of machinery and the piecing together of bits and pieces on the assembly line. However, it was also the first stage in our separation from the rhythm of life, (the heartbeat), resulting in us eventually becoming deaf to all but the cacophony that surrounds us.
Thankfully, there are some who still strive to maintain the connection for us; those individuals who are sensitive to the effect rhythm can have on us physically, emotionally, and (dare I say this publicly in the West) spiritually. I'm not talking about some New Age high priest of whatever spiritual tradition is fashionable to co-opt this week; I'm not even talking about so-called legitimate religious people either. Nope I'm talking about some of the most profane and real people on the planet – musicians.
Any musician who has ever had even a modicum of success has had to learn how to keep a steady beat going. From a lead vocalist to the percussionist, without a feel for timing they wouldn't have even been able to play in the lowest of dives without being thrown off stage in a hail of beer bottles. But if you really want to make a connection back to yourself with music you need to search out percussionists who have made it their life's work, mission even, to seek out people of like mind from cultures around the world to work with.
Mickey Hart, formally of the Grateful Dead and various independent percussion projects, is one such gifted percussionist. Even during his days of drumming for the Dead he was busy with side projects all over the world. He would use his name and status to open doors for himself, and the musicians he worked with in other countries, to ensure their non-commercial projects would not only be recorded, but even released and promoted.
One of his earliest collaborators was the amazing tabla player Zakir Hussain. The two men have known each other since the 1970s when they were key figures in the percussion project known as the Diga Rhythm Band. Aside from both being percussionists, they have a similar philosophy when it comes to their approach to music. Each of them describes the work they have done in the years since that last record appeared as steps on a journey.
While neither of them are very clear about where the journey is going to take them, they are clear about making sure that they are continually learning and experimenting with different means of expressing rhythm. Their new release, Global Drum Project, due out Oct 2nd on the Shout Factory label, sees them hooking up with two other percussionists; Sikiru Adepoju on the African talking drum and Giovanni Hidalgo supplying a Latin groove.
The eight tracks on this disc represent a distillation of a great deal of the music they have absorbed and learned about in the years since the Diga Rhythm Band projects of the seventies. Aside from bringing together music from the Amazon Basin to Papua New Guinea and all stops in between, they've also embraced the potential that technology has to augment what can be done with the human body.
The result is absolutely spellbinding, in the almost literal sense of the world. From the opening track "Baba", featuring guest vocals from Babatunde Olatunji, through to the ethereal "I Can Tell You More" that closes the disc, you are taken on a trip not only around the physical world via various musical influences, but to the unlimited world that resides with each of us.
It doesn't matter whether a song is composed of tribal beats, complicated tabla patterns, or sounds turned into clouds by effect's boxes, the music pulls you out of the mundane world. To sit and listen to Global Drum Project is to obtain a level of awareness that you may not have thought you were capable of experiencing. The musical prowess of all those involved in this recording is so astounding there is no way you can listen to it without forgetting about the world beyond the disc for at least the duration of its playing time.
But unlike supposed transcendental music sold in New Age stores, they aren't making any effort to be "spiritual", or even pretending to be anything other than extremely gifted musicians. Which is exactly why it is so successful in being a record of such power and grace. Their only concern is to play some of the great and wonderful music they've come across during the past few years of their journey.
Music that is played with the passion and skill these people possess doesn't need to try and be spiritual or uplifting in order to be just that. When music is able to achieve the purity and beauty required to free us sufficiently to be able to hear what's around and inside us for a change, it becomes one of the greatest gifts we can give to each other. How much more spiritual can you get than that?
The Global Drum Project is an amazing disc of percussion music as you've never heard percussion played before. If you've never really experienced what it feels like to leave the world behind, even temporarily, then you won't want to miss out on this recording. This is music at its purest and most direct, and it will speak to places inside of you that you didn't even know existed.


In these lessons, we will learn how to factor quadratic equations that are the Perfect Square Trinomials (Square of a Sum or Square of a Difference) and Difference of Two Squares.
In some cases, recognizing some common patterns in the quadratic equation will help you to factorize the quadratic. For example, the quadratic equation could be a Perfect Square Trinomial (Square of a Sum or Square of a Difference) or Difference of Two Squares.
This video provides examples of how to factor and solve quadratic equations when the equations are perfect square trinomials.
The following videos explain how to factor a difference of squares.


Paper towels and toilet tissue are the most important products in your restroom, and they run out quickly. Lucky for you, we provide wholesale paper towels and toilet paper so your business restrooms are always stocked. Look for the commercial toilet tissue dispensers that fit your space, and buy toilet paper in bulk. Stock up on plenty of paper towel refills because no one likes to walk out of the bathroom with wet hands.
