Proven With Electromagnetic Waves
Physicists at the University of Southampton have successfully tested and confirmed a 50-year-old theory for the first time using electromagnetic waves.
Their experiments demonstrated that the energy of waves can be amplified by bouncing ‘twisted waves’—waves with angular momentum—off a rotating object under specific conditions.
This is known as the ‘Zel’dovich effect’, named after Soviet physicist Yakov Zel’dovich who developed a theory based on this idea in the 1970s. Until now, it was believed to be unobservable with electromagnetic fields. READ MORE...

Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs)
The first known UFO encounter in America was recorded in 1639 by pious Puritan and prolific journal-keeper John Winthrop. He is a foundational figure in the national pantheon and leader of the Massachusetts Bay Colony as it settled Boston.
The Nuclear Option
Many of us have the FALSE BELIEF that our world will not attempt to use the nuclear option to settle our territorial disputes and disagreements.
While many of us also believe that ISLAMIC TERRORISTS are so obsessed with completely destroying ISRAEL that they are blinded to the fact that using nuclear weapons on the JEWS will also destroy them and their quest for after life VIRGINS.
As of January 2024, the following countries have nuclear weapons:
- United States
- Russia
- China
- United Kingdom
- France
- India
- Pakistan
- Israel
- North Korea.

What About, What IFs?
I have said it many times before that opinions are like butt holes, everybody has got one, but that does not make opinions any less valid.
Many people understand but do not fully accept that the consequences of their actions are always as bad as people claim they might be. Whether or not this is true, does not prevent me from voicing my concerns about a couple of WHAT IF SCENARIOS.
What If, Trump loses the election in November?
I believe that the USA will experience FOUR YEARS of unrecognizable hardships.
- Inflation will continue
- Illegal immigration will continue
- Crime and violence will continue
- Worker strikes will continue
- Taxes will increase on Americans
- US economy will continue to weaken
- Russia will intensify its war in Ukraine
- China will invade Taiwan
- Iran will declare war on Israel
- Trump will be sent to prison where he will remain while his lawyers appeal
- NYC will seize his assets for failure to pay restitution
- The Trump Real Estate Empire will file bankruptcy
- Trump supporters will retaliate
- Terrorists already inside USA will commit activities
- Criminals already inside USA will escalate their activities
- Illegal immigrants will begin to substantially draw down medical and other resources
- Americans and Illegals will begin to fight each other
Bosses FIRING Gen Z Grads
After complaining for the better part of two years that Gen Z grads are difficult to work with, bosses are no longer all talk, no action: Now they’re rapidly firing young workers who aren’t up to scratch just months after hiring them.
According to a new report, six in 10 employers say they have already sacked some of the Gen Z workers they hired fresh out of college earlier this year.
Intelligent.com, a platform dedicated to helping young professionals navigate the future of work, surveyed nearly 1,000 U.S. leaders. It found that the class of 2024’s shortcomings will impact future grad
After experiencing a raft of problems with young new hires, one in six bosses say they’re hesitant to hire college grads again. Meanwhile, one in seven bosses have admitted that they may avoid hiring them altogether next year.
Three-quarters of the companies surveyed said some or all of their recent graduate hires were unsatisfactory in some way. READ MORE...

A Liberal Conservative
I am not a Democrat nor am I a Republican, but I am both a liberal and a conservative. I have no desire to be controlled by a political party and I even embrace some aspects of socialism, like unemployment, Medicare, and social security.
My main BELIEF is a small government, low taxes, strong state governments, and a well-financed military.
Our government should:
- Protect us
- NOT tell us what to do
- take care of all our veterans like they should be taken care of
- provide for our national defense (CIA, NSA, Homeland Security)
- negotiate trade agreements and defense treaties
- provide universal healthcare to all citizens
- either provide unemployment insurance or force companies to do so
- limit the terms of ALL government elected and appointed offices
- privatize:
- education (K-12, Community Colleges, College, Universities)
- collection of taxes, debts, tariffs
- transportation (highways, road, bridges, tunnels)
- space exploration
- consumer protection
- parks and recreation
- law enforcement (FBI, National Guard)
- fire protection
- emergency medical services
Support the JEWS
Part of our Christianity, our Christian Belief systems, is to support the JEWS because, in the Bible, they are the chosen people of God. However, the JEWISH faith DOES NOT BELIEVE that Jesus is our savior because they were expecting a WARRIOR SAVIOR.
So, Christians believe that one cannot get into heaven except through Jesus and the acceptance of Jesus as our savior since he died for our sins on the cross.
Because of this CONTRADICTION, I have yet to understand why Christians are so hell bent on saving JEWS because they are JEWS.
I believe that we should help the JEWS not because they are JEWS but because they need our help as the Islamic peoples of the Middle East want to destroy and annihilate them.
On the other side of the coin, the JEWS want to annihilate all the Arabs, Muslims, and those who believe in Islam.
BOTH SIDES ARE EQUALLY EVIL...
While I am certainly not a Christian in the traditional sense of being a Christian (whatever that means) I am spiritual and believe in a Creator... and because of that belief, I think ALL PEOPLE regardless of their beliefs or lack of beliefs have a right to co-exist on this planet earth.
I think that belief should extend into OUTER SPACE once we start colonizing planets.
Your RIGHT TO LIFE begins once you draw your first breath of air and should continue until you draw your last breath of air.
For those of the human race who do not believe in that concept, then they are living in the past and should be ignored. Since these people will continue to rise up even when ignored, we should enclose them in a country stockade. All of them, all together, where they cannot leave. Nor can anyone enter.
The rest of the world will live a life of coexistence and be the better off for it.
