Where Were you?

History 1 Minute

I will never forget where I was when I heard about the Twin Towers. My mother and I were in the local bank.  They had just installed 2 large televisions for those people waiting in lines.  Normally the news played in the background as we stood waiting for the next teller.  But that morning, we all stood in disbelief watching the horror unfold—tellers and customers alike.  Mom and I had planned to go grocery shopping after the bank, but we decided to go home and watch the tv for more information. 

Where we you when you heard?  Do you remember? Will you ever forget?

(if I got the correct link, the second video is the updated version of the first one.)

    HIV/AIDS activists storm Kevin McCarthy’s office — demanding a 5-year renewal of PEPFAR:

    I wonder who’s paying them?

    Look into PEPFAR, as it’s basically another money-laundering scheme. Scarf Lady Birx was knee-deep in it — along with Ukraine.

  2. Well, shit. Mark called – no 2nd hand mowers around except for the huge zero-turn machines. But his Mom has a young boy she pays to mow her lawn and do odds and ends for her; he also shovels the sidewalks at the bank in town in the winter. He is going to get his name and contact info for me from his Mom. I’d be more than happy to just pay someone to mow and weed-eat 2 times a month for $50-$75 and he said he would be good to help with some of the odd jobs, like leveling my mailbox.

    1. you’re lucky if you get him!
      my mom pays HER BROTHER–her OLDER brother–$40 A WEEK to cut her grass and he lives next door. he doesn’t cut his own grass because the family doesn’t like him on the riding mower. but they don’t say a word when he cuts mom’s grass every week cuz they like the $$.
      it’s disgusting!

      1. IDK how fast her grass grows but only the most elegant of lawns needs that kind of attention, IMO. Her brothers and their families are chumps! Isn’t it amazing to see how different siblings can be???

        1. it’s awful.
          she finally told him she couldn’t afford every week–so he said it would be every ten days. I told mom she should tell him to lower his blade and YOU will tell him when YOU want it cut–not the other way around

      “But former President Donald Trump still has many allies in the Capitol, who want to see the current president go through what the last one faced. They charge the Biden family enriched themselves based on Biden being the vice president.

      Republicans have not yet been able to produce evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden.”

  5. “Given the plants function and importance, it seems reasonable to suspect that this is yet another food processing plant fire that was likely due to sabotage, with the intention to further disrupt the food supply chain… Explosion and fire at major food processing & biofuel plant in US…”

    “Several hurt in ADM central Illinois plant blast; corn, soy processing down”
    By Karl Plume

    CHICAGO, Sept 11 (Reuters) – Several employees were hospitalized after an explosion and fire late on Sunday at a massive Archer-Daniels-Midland (ADM) (ADM.N) facility in Decatur, Illinois, that severely damaged crop processing operations, the company and the local fire department said.
    Eight workers were injured at the ADM East processing plant and six were taken to hospital via ambulance, the Decatur Fire Department said in a statement on Monday. Five remained hospitalized on Monday morning, ADM said.

  6. People were cheering because the Taliban is stopping the growing of poppies….instead….

    “ISLAMABAD (AP) — Afghanistan is the world’s fastest-growing maker of methamphetamine, a report from the United Nations drug agency said Sunday. The country is also a major opium producer and heroin source, even though the Taliban declared a war on narcotics after they returned to power in August 2021.

    The United Nations’ Office on Drugs and Crimes, which published the report, said meth in Afghanistan is mostly made from legally available substances or extracted from the ephedra plant, which grows in the wild.

    The report called Afghanistan’s meth manufacturing a growing threat to national and regional health and security because it could disrupt the synthetic drug market and fuel addiction. It said seizures of meth suspected to have come from Afghanistan have been reported from the European Union and east Africa.”

  7. the pipeline and eminent domain is done for now.
    FTA
    On Monday, the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission denied a permit for a controversial carbon capture pipeline in the state. Summit Carbon Solutions (SCS) had filed dozens of eminent domain lawsuits against South Dakota landowners to seize properties that had been in their families for generations.

    The carbon technology captures carbon dioxide pollution from ethanol plants, power plants and steel factories, and stores it deep underground. The $5.5 billion Midwest Carbon Express pipeline would have extract carbon from ethanol plants in Iowa and stored it underground in North Dakota.

    The Inflation Reduction Act, signed into law by Joe Biden last year, massively expanded tax credits for the potentially dangerous carbon capture projects. Last week, Navigator Heartland Greenway, a carbon capture company based in Nebraska, saw its own permit request be denied after weeks of hearings.

    As American Greatness reported earlier this year, SCS went to court to seize the property rights of more than 80 South Dakota landowners because their land was in the path of the company’s planned 2,000-mile carbon capture pipeline. According to some accounts, surveyors from the company trespassed on the properties and intimidated the farmers with armed security guards.

    The motion to deny was unanimously passed 3-0.

    “It is my estimation after listening to the testimony today that Summit Carbon cannot demonstrate at this time or in the near future that they have the ability to route the pipeline as proposed,” Haeder said. “Without … preemption, you’ve made crystal clear in your prefiled testimony that various county ordinances make this an impossible project at this time.”

    snip

    In an interview in June, Jared Bossly, one of the landowners facing the loss of his property, said that he spoke to Gov. Noem about his situation and her response was “it’s out of my hands … am I supposed to fight all your battles?”

    While the denial decision is a major setback to the project, it is not the end. Summit Carbon can reapply for a permit if it still intends to build its pipeline in South Dakota, “essentially restarting their application process at square-one,” according to the Argus Leader.

  16. I am adding a short daily prayer to the board. I would invite each of you, if you wish, to also add one or maybe two of your own liking. I do not want to stifle anyone but please limit yourself to one or two religious postings. here’s one I found that I liked.
