Public Health Concern
Strange Earwig Found in USA
This is neither a joke nor just an old wives' tale. Beware of this dangerous pest. It can scurry into a nostril, cut a small circle in the skin inside, start gnawing away at your sinus cavity, making a home for itself, get into your ear, and more. I hope that one of these doesn't enter or infect your brain. Symptoms include sinus infections on one side. First the danger must be recognized, then you can fight against it.
Unfortunately, in Florida at least, if you tell a doctor that you have a problem with this bug, that same doctor can very well legally send you to an insane asylum for the rest of your life. Thank God for the power of the name of Jesus Christ! And thank goodness for doctors. But, I would also suggest that everyone buy ultra-sonic pest repellers and plug one into an outlet in your bedroom. I know Black&Decker makes some in China.

If you see an earwig like this one, you should kill and capture it. To see one and not kill it might be a deadly mistake. Its normal lifespan is probably more than a dozen years. 
When I saw this one, I pounded it with my fist like a hammer. I then crushed its neck with my thumbnail and dropped it into a small container. It landed in an awkward position bending the abdomen. Then I froze it.

So, beware also of those earwigs that you don't see. Insects have little mercy. And, the Mafia and CIA do likewise, among others. But who can blame them? Mercy is meant for the merciful. But, this means war. I'm still hoping it's not a plague. And, I hope mankind overcomes these things. Glory to the LORD God.

Congratulations to Barack Obama
I wish him well as President of the United States of America in a difficult time. But, I don't envy the job.
Perhaps Congress can now pass a law to criminalize torture that won't be vetoed.
As for myself, I've just rarely been on the internet lately. My free time has been very limited. I'm focusing my interests toward at least doing a little more with my music. Listen in at:

How US Torture Laws Help Al-Qaeda
One Reason at Least
No decent, self-respecting individual would ever turn another person over to authorities to be tortured. Yes a civilized person might turn in a suspect to be detained and questioned, but not for torture or summary execution.
Torture is against international law and condemned by enlightened societies, but embraced by degenerates and barbarians. My dad used to tell me that two wrongs don't make a right. I guess maybe Bush's Poppy never said that to him.

US Plans to Blow Apart Its Own Military Satellite
Space Weapons and Anti-satellite Missiles
Here is a good opportunity for our space agencies to prove the value of the Orbital Express satellites to reprogram and boost the orbit of its own spy satellite, but instead they choose once again to show their ability to destroy satellites by using anti-satellite missiles.
They warned the Chinese before about doing the same thing. It sounds like another clear act of intimidation against the rest of the world, an example of how they can deny access in space for certain satellites - especially those from Iran.

Space Weapons Warning - Update
Experimental Satellites
And Anti-satellite Satellites
Last Thursday night an Atlas 5 rocket was sent aloft and on skyward from Cape Kennedy. DARPA and Space Command placed in low earth orbit some six "experimental" military satellites. Of these some are said to be used for refueling satellites but also capable of capturing and attaching themselves to most man-made satellites and changing their orbits, the Orbital Express program. Repeating again, and reading between the lines, these satellites can not only grab other satellites to boost their orbits - but also presumably bring them down in a fiery reentry. And are ready and able to do whichever is commanded.
The Chinese had also been working on technology for something like this for some time. They'll probably want to put their own in orbit next, satellites that capture other satellites and change their control and function in some way. (They didn't recently shoot apart their own satellite for no reason, like Reagan did over twenty years ago.) Or if someone wanted, they could just put something as simple as some big bags of sand in orbit rigged to explode, or maybe something as complicated as an EMP.
It seems to me that our leaders blunder on, and America has gone berserkers. Bush has called for the world to react either for or against his administration, who say either get behind them or get out of their way - follow them or face their wrath. Welcome to the twenty-first century, Mr. Schizoidman. Take a look at the scene you are creating. I'm speculating that you will still go ahead on and not listen to me, a somewhat concerned citizen. Que sera sera.
So the weaponization of space is full speed ahead. Get ready for satellite wars to begin. Does America really think it can conquer the whole world with satellites, nukes, the troops in Iraq, and all their false intelligence, money, and the cheering sections of high school football games chanting, "USA! USA! Shock and awe! We're #1!"? The nurse with a sweet female face announces with a smile, a wink, and a grin, "Time for your medicine."

Iraq Now - A Question for Free People
About Four Years After (Once Again)
First and foremost, what do the liberated people of Iraq think? If the Iraqis now truly have freedom and democracy, then perhaps they themselves should now put it to a vote on whether they wish the US military to leave or to stay, and not the US Congress which voted for an unnecessary war of aggression. Isn't it time yet for the matter to be broached and for the question to be asked?
I suppose it's none of my business anyway. I don't consider myself a free man either.

The End
I have thought for some time now that the Neo-Con's plans and dreams for American world-domination will probably soon lead to nuclear war, and that there's really nothing I can do about it. And, knowing the human race, it would likely happen anyway. Oblivion and chaos, but almost nobody cares. And I say also, "God's will be done" - whatever it may be. I have seen glimpses of His Glory. But maybe you can tell me, when did the Christian creed become "Blessed are the rich. No one can stand in their way"?
I am not those other bluehummingbirds on the internet. And, no one has supported my sites with any contributions. (My thanks to my websites' free hosts.) But due to health and financial reasons, and the lack of interest, my sites on the internet are now finished and complete. Thank you, reader, for your time and interest, and good luck. If I am ever compelled, I might still write again.
Adios,
James Patrick Holmes
