The US Ambassador, who is the embodiment of the “humanitarian” […]

China reveals future plans for space exploration [Xinhua]China’s Mars exploration program has been formally approved by the central authorities, Xu Dazhe, director of China National Space Administration, announced on Friday.
“The Mars probe is expected to orbit the red planet, land and deploy a rover all in one mission, which 1is quite difficult to achieve,” Xu told the media in Beijing.

I was in first grade the first time I recall hearing how America was sending aid to millions overseas. The year was 1962, at the time we only had 3 TV stations to watch, that is if one lived in a big town. Over half a century later the truth of American giving casts a dark and ominous shadow over our heritage.
I’ve been wondering for some time whether, in order to ensure victory for the Establishment Messiah Hillary Clinton, we may see a degree of vote-rigging or last-ditch foul-play to push Hillary over the finish line.

This catastrophe has almost put an end to the use of nuclear power in Japan, since the general public expressed fear and distrust towards all remaining nuclear power plants in Japan – both operational and those under construction.

We have heard almost nothing about the Syrian Parliamentary elections last week. It was not just the usual corporate media blackout, but an orgy of hate toward the undefeated Syrian people by the US coalition and an international news service that acts like an extension of Western Intelligence. But that came as no surprise, as this is the same media that has lied to us about the Syrian war from day one, so why would they stop lying at election time.
The American media shows little interest in Bernie Sanders’ weekend meeting with Pope Francis, having predicted that it was not included in Sanders’ invitation to speak at a Vatican conference. Similarly, Joseph Stalin is known to have responded to Western advice to consider the Vatican’s attitude with outright contempt: “How many divisions does the Pope have?”

Once I worked on a Jesuit-owned radio station and I played the above version of "Let's Pretend We're Married" and was told I'd be suspended if I ever played it again. So I did-- every time I went on the air for a year. They only suspended me once though. I bet YouTube takes the clip down within days-- if not hours.I was shocked when I heard Prince had died today. I was more shocked to hear he was 57. I always though of him as 40 years younger than that. I didn't know Prince well, but no one working at Warner Bros in the '80s didn't know something about the mythical Prince.
