Margate Florida – City Commission Meetings: Duck Haven

October 27th, 2009

Here is a short primer on how corruption starts. One always needs to be vigilant when serving the public! Yes, do serve your constituents, but you must do it within the law, and apply it equally to all, PERIOD! If you can’t, change the law!

Duck Haven is the name given to a place behind a private residence in a gentrified neighborhood. It may or may not be a non-profit business, that is irrelevant for our discussion.

What is stinky, is politicians using public funds to repair a private dwelling, only because the person cares for injured Muscovy ducks, a Florida non-native bird. While the person who tends the ducks is well meaning, it does create a nuisance for her neighbors. But, you only need to know a commissioner and it opens the public cash register!

What bothers me, is are they extending the courtesy to each and every constituent… homeowner… friend?

I mean, can they come fix my home, too? What would I need to do for that… care for some ducks, while violating city code for years or know some city commissioner?

Oh… by the way, our city commission is non-partisan… wink-wink! But they are all members AND OFFICERS in the city’s Democratic Club… wink-wink! But it is totally non-partisan!

Barney Frank: “We Are Trying On Every Front To Increase The Role Of Government”

October 27th, 2009

This needs NO explanation. It is clear, along with Nancy Pelosis’s comment, that these people in Congress are a REAL enemy to liberty!

These are just TWO of the buffoons who are shackling the citizens they supposedly represent!

Listen to both clips for yourselves…

Non-Employee Takes Company Paychecks

October 27th, 2009

Really?

Everyday, increasingly – many multiple times per day – I witness blatant acts of selfishness. Drivers talking on phones and not paying attention, no please or thank you, and no decency in public conversation.

Did this person think he would never be caught?

He was caught and now he is guilty of a crime that would preclude him from ever having a job at a company like Avaya for the rest of his life!

Much is said about critical thinking these days. But if you are stuck on stupid (that means only thinking for and about yourself,) never thinking of what consequences your actions may cause to yourself, let alone others, you are not thinking (let alone making the step up to critical thinking!) Therefore, the punishment you receive is deserved.

But Providence, seeing this before time began, provided THE way out of receiving the eternal punishment deserved!

All the words could be spoken today and would have context in our current political climate!

Progressivism… liberalism… communism… whatever its name, it is tyranny nonetheless. To stand against these takes real courage and stamina.

Rest in peace, President Reagan!

Universality of galactic surface densities within one dark halo scale-length (Nature)

October 27th, 2009

Wow… these scientists really are riding that wave on the forefront of knowledge.

Co-author of the article, Benoit Famaey (Ph.D., astronomer at Universities of Bonn and Strasbourg) says that “dark matter seems to ‘know’ how visible matter is distributed. They seem to conspire with each other such that the gravity of the visible matter at the characteristic radius of the dark halo (the radius within which the volume density profile of dark matter remains approximately flat) is always the same (across wide range of galaxies). This is extremely surprising since one would rather expect the balance between visible and dark matter to strongly depend on the individual history of each galaxy.”

It strikes me as funny… that as science advances… the hypotheses more and more seem to point to some kind of intelligence that controls it all. Of course we know this to be true… God made all things by His breath and that science will not even entertain the idea of a creator! Instead, they ascribe the intelligence to inanimate matter or forces and call anything else superstition!

And those who believe in a God Who reveals Himself personally to people are ridiculed!
