Hostile Aliens: Part 3



You are one of the leaders in a “Shadow Government,” working for the United Nations. You are involved in intergalaxic politics with hundreds of civilizations in the Milky Way. As an American you know that your President and a few congressmen and Senators know what your orders are. But even they do not know the full extent of the alien threat. The Aliens are demanding that humans dismantle their nuclear weapons. They want space demilitarized.



People around the world have problems understanding the people next door and how their local government works. They have a problem with local politics. Villages are fighting other villages over water rights in the Middle East and in Africa. North Korea is shelling South Korea again over a fishing rights dispute. In America, people are in the middle of the second great depression in the last 80 years.



The people on Earth have no idea that you are negotiating with other beings for Earth’s right to travel in space to other worlds. You are about to go into a meeting with the Galactic League to talk about their right to have land and sea bases on Earth. In fact, they have bases all over the Earth and on the Moon. You know that the nations of Earth cannot control their air space. The aliens can roam at will.


You want to stop the abductions and the theft of human eggs and sperm from the average Earthly Citizen. The aliens use them to reproduce hybrid beings. The Cattle Industry in the United States, Canada, and the South American nations want an end to cattle rustling by aliens.
The 57 species in the Galactic League weaponry makes Earth’s military technology look like “Sticks and Stones.” So you can’t negotiate from strength. So how are you going to solve this problem?


That is just one problem that faces Earth’s “Shadow Government.” What will happen if one day, the people on Earth become aware of the aliens occupying their planet? Because of the advance camera and internet technology, governments can no longer cover up alien activity. Will humans demand that aliens be removed from the planet? Will they demand that we go to war against them? How would the aliens react to human awareness? Will the fear of such knowledge cause the collapse of civilization as we know it on Earth today?
***
Remember what happen to Native American Society when the Europeans came to America. From 1492 to today, most were wiped out from war, hate crimes, and desease. The remaining Native Americans were forced to give up their identity and become White or Black and move to the cities. Their land was stollen from them by law. Their children were taught a false history or no history about themselves. They had to give up their own language for English French, Portuguese, German, or Spanish.
***
Politicians do not like to deal with unknowns. That is why they never talk about aliens or UFOs. Rarely do they allow their media to do so either.

From all of this, you can see why most of the world’s governments deny the existence of UFOs or at most ignore any inquiries about them.

SETI: Earth’s listening Post
http://www.alienvideo.net/0702/seti-makes-alien-contact.php

SETI has listen to many signals from space. Five of these signals cannot be explained.


In our next blog

A group of corporations will take on what they will call the alien threat to the human race. We will see what the US Presidents say especially Five Star General then President Eisenhower about this group of corporations. The true is out there!

Hostile Aliens: Part 2






A UFO Researcher said, “Disclosure of UFOs and ETs are in full gear. 20 years ago you rarely saw anything on TV about UFOs. Now every day there is some program or news report on UFOs and it's just gonna keep increasing until the ETs feel it's the right time to let the whole world know the truth. One day real soon they will come down and STAY, until CNN and every major news station has the live report that will be undeniable proof and EVERYONE will know they exist ( ETs).”





Astronaut Cooper went to the United Nations about the UFO Issue.





In 1977, when Sir Eric Gairy, then Prime Minster of Grenada, proposed to the United Nations that they create a department to gather information on UFOs from its member states, Gordon Cooper aided in the effort. In 1978, Cooper along with Gairy, UFO researchers J. Allen Hynek, Jacques Vallee, Leonard Stringfield and Claude Poher of the official French government’s UFO investigation group, visited the UN Secretary General, Kurt Waldheim, to discuss the matter.



Why Should You Care?



Here is my opinion of what is going on. Some aliens are a few hundred years more advanced than we are. Others are several thousand years more advanced than we are. Aliens did not care what we did on Earth. Some of these species helped mankind out in some major cases over the centuries. They tracked the movement of people and used our sperm and eggs to produce hybrid alien/human people. Then the world wars came and they started getting nervous.



Man started creating machines that go far underneath the oceans. Aliens have bases in the Great Lakes and in the oceans. In the early 20th century man started flying. Then they developed jet planes. In the 1940s rocket technology took off as well as atomic and nuclear power. By the 1950s, man started moving out into outer space.



Man has already demonstrated that we are a hostile species. If man goes into space unchecked, we may cause problems for the intergalaxic community. If you noticed, expansion into space, even a move to occupy the moon is no longer in the short term plans of any nation on Earth.




Most nations including the US and Russia is trying to reduce if not illuminate nuclear weapons on Earth. All this is because of threats from the intergalaxic community. The intergalaxic community will not allow the people from Earth to advance any further into space until mankind eliminates nuclear weapons and promise to keep weapons out of outer space. That is what the shut down and shoot down of nuclear missiles are about.



Governments now have a political problem. People around the world have problems understanding the people next door and how their local government works. They have a problem with local politics. What will happen if one day, these same people skip the lesson in national or international politics and go straight into intergalaxic politics? We will look at the problem of intergalaxic politics next time!

Hostile Aliens: Part 1


When I was in my 20s, I watched a BBC TV program called “UFO.” I like the program. I did not know that the theme of the program was real. Since the 1940s, UFOs have been showing up in increasing numbers. Since man started using nuclear weapons, they have been getting increasingly hostile. At the 2010 UFO Convention scientist have testified that they believe aliens are telling us to ban nuclear weapons because man has no idea what they are dealing with. This is the reason why aliens are becoming increasingly hostile.

We already talked about the UFO demonstration over Washington DC in the 1950s. Astronaut Cooper discussed the landing of a UFO at a secure Air Force Base. These incidents tell us that we do not have control of our own air space. We had a US missile shoot down by a UFO caught on tape by Air Force officials. UFOs and USOs have been seen around our most advanced ships at sea.

In this documentary, we will hear from many former highly intelligent Government employees, secret agency members, and top secret classified clearance employees. We will also hear from many engineers from both NASA and other highly classified sects of the worldwide government.
“The Disclosure Project" is an organization that was developed by the honorable Mr. Steven M. Greer. It includes over 400 military members and various government departments. They claim that captured alien technology is controlled by a "shadow government" which is kept hidden away from the mainstream populace for so-called national security reasons.
This is an extraordinary documentary which represents the views of all of the eye witness testimonies of all of these very credential individuals. They have gathered the courage to come forward and testify in Congress about the secrets they have withheld under penalty of law from the mainstream public. Very heroic men and women speak the absolute truth about their work with this sector. This sector branches off into many other highly secretive departments of the hidden satellite government.

Astronaut Cooper went to the United Nations, wanting a program to study UFOs.

In our next blog, we will see why this issue is important to you and your family. We will see what Astronaut Cooper is trying to stop before the problem gets out of hand.

We Had UFOs Before 1947!








The Roswell UFO Incident was the alleged recovery of extra-terrestrial debris, including alien corpses, from an object which crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, in June or July 1947. People who don’t believe that UFOs or aliens exist tell me that people never talked about such things before 1947. If that is the case then why do they talk about it in the bible? Why did Columbus talk about it in his ship log? Why did they talk about it in 16th Century Europe? The truth is, each time people talked about it, the authorities attacked them.

The above picture was taken in Cave Junction, Oregon. There is some question as to whether the photo was taken in '26 or '27, but nonetheless, if this is an authentic photograph it is incredible. Reportedly it was snapped by a volunteer fireman. They did not use the phrase "Flying Saucer" until the 1950s.

In February 1942, two months after the Japanese attack on the US Pacific Fleet, a strange ship was seen over LA and was assumed to be the Japanese. The Army opened up on it but never brought it down. The Army claimed later that it was several things including a weather balloon.

Christopher Columbus UFO sighting on Oct. 11,1492

Even Christopher Columbus, it appears, saw a UFO. While patrolling the deck of the Santa Maria at about 10:00 PM on October 11, 1492, Columbus thought he saw "a light glimmering at a great distance." He hurriedly summoned Pedro Gutierrez, "a gentleman of the king's bedchamber," who also saw the light. After a short time it vanished, only to reappear several times during the night, each time dancing up and down "in sudden and passig gleams." The light, first seen four hours before land was sighted, was never explained." Like Apollo 11 mission to the moon in July 1969, Columbus seems to have had an escort to his distination. Both missions where major civilization changers.


In later years, Columbus was reported to the Spanish Inquistion for reporting on this event.



UFOs in 15th century paintings

ITALY'S Old Masters were recording flying saucers and UFOs in their paintings as far back as the 15th century, according to a scientist in Rome. Roberto Volterri argues that artists dating back to 1406 included evidence of "strange objects in the sky" for later generations to see.

Hic Sunt Leones - UFOs in the ancient times


http://www.dudeman.net/siriusly/ufo/art.html
Ancient UFO Art

A story about a UFO battle took place over Nuremburg, Germany on April 14, 1561 (top picture above). It was witnessed by hundreds of people in this town. They did not have pictures but they did paint what they saw. The word Angels in the Greek and in Hebrew means messanger. They came down from heaven to talk to many people that you see in the bible. Have you noticed that many of the pictures painted about Jesus have UFOs in the pictures?


The Birth of Jesus


If you know the story about Jesus birth, you know that Mary, his mother conceived him from a virgin birth. Joseph his father was not involved. The reason why God did this was because he wanted his son to come to Earth and show man how to live a better life and lead the way for people to go to heaven. Knowing a little about Genetic Engineering, I know that it takes an egg and a sperm (both with genetic material in it) to create a person. Today, we know many of the genetic codes that make up how humans act, think, look, and etc. God works in the three dimensional world through people, plants, and animals. I bet God works through aliens as well. I bet it was the aliens that artificially inciminated Mary. The wise men from the East came to see Jesus. They were guided by a star in the sky that stayed above Joseph and Mary's place. They arrived when Jesus was around two years old. Stars do not guide people, appear over houses and shine on it. However, UFO space craft do.

The good Aliens (we also have bad aliens) and God work together. This is how Jesus came to us. This is why we have pictures with UFOs in them relating to biblical times.

The Death and Resurrection


Depending on your beliefs, (here is my belief) Jesus died Thursday afternoon on the cross and was dead two days and three nights. The Romans placed a guard on his tomb so that no one could steal the body since prophecy had it that he would rise from the dead on the third day. It took two people to move the stone that seals the tomb.


In an earlier blog, I told you about the time I lost 20 minutes and was given false memories while driving home from a date at age 21. In the case of the Roman Guards, I believe that the aliens disposed of them while the aliens started the transfiguration process. After Jesus left the tomb, the aliens places the guards back on duty and gave them false memories. They never knew that anything unusual happened. Something similar happened when the aliens broke Apostle Peter out of jail about 60 years after the transfiguration.



However, Sunday morning, Jesus was no longer in the tomb and the Roman guards claim they were not asleep. Jesus woke up from the dead (third day) Sunday morning. They claim no one could get past them to open the thumb. But Jesus was alive, meeting and talking to his family members and supporters.

This is thought to be the burial cloth of Jesus. No process known to science can explain how this happened. The Shroud of Turin recorded the beginning of the resurrection of Jesus using some technology that even today, we do not understand.


or

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvzqGP9jZBQ&NR=1&feature=fvwp

Here is one reason why the Vatican announced that there may be other beings living on other planets.

Jesus hung out on Earth after his resurrection for about 30 days. Then in front of his followers Jesus ascended into Heaven. As you know, he took his body with him. But his body cannot ascend into outer space or into another dimension. So he needed a space ship to leave this planet or this dimension. Again, the angles or some may call them aliens probably aided him to see his heavenly father using a space ship or UFO.


***

Birth, Death, and Transfiguration
As you can see, I believe that Jesus was born from a virgin birth. He was crucified on the cross and he did rise on the third day. But I also believe in more scientific details about how it was done and who was involved. So I believe in the mergence of science with spiritual mechanics. That takes the magic out of the spiritual process. This increases my faith to the point where I can prove in what I believe in. In other words, my belief is not because of my parents belief or the popular belief of my associates.


Science Meet Spirit


or

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFlwGOt5WDA

The Fusion of Science and Spirit

So you see Science and Spirit are merging. God created everything including aliens and people. But the power structure (early church, kingdoms, and nations) throughout history never wanted you to know the truth about our relationship with God and the universe. This is why you have never heard about aliens and UFOs before the mass media came along.

Astronaut Gordon Cooper and Astronaut Buzz Aldrin on sightings of UFOs


They say that we have no proof of extraterrestrial activity on Earth or in space. I believe it would take an alien news conference on the White House lawn, live on the 6:00 Evening News before the US Government would admit that UFOs and extraterrestrials exist here on Earth. Extraterrestrials use Earth as a base. It is as natural as eating corn flakes for breakfast.

Most of us will believe astronauts when they describe their experience on the moon. Astronaut Cooper had experiences with UFOs in the air and on Earth. But no one will talk about his experiences.

10 minute interview with Astronaut Gordon Cooper of the Mercury Project



Man on his way to land on the moon for the first time.


Astronaut Aldrin and two others took off from Cape Canaveral for the moon one day in July 1969. They left Earth orbit using their S4B third stage rocket. They separated from that rocket going one way and the third stage going another. A day later, Buzz looked out his window and saw a space craft escorting them to the moon. When you are 50,000 miles from Earth, you should be able to account for everyone near your space craft. The Secret Service should not be along side your space craft while you are on your way to the moon. This is what Buzz had to say about that experience.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlkV1ybBnHI
4 minute interview with Astronaut Buzz Aldrin of Apollo 11 Mission

Apollo 13 had a major service module malfunction on their way to the moon. Space Technicians wondered if they were going to make it back home. Technicians had a question concerning the heat shield of the space craft. Was it damaged in the service module explosion? Because there are no people between the space ship and the Earth, technicians can calculate to the second when a space craft will return to Earth. Apollo 13 should have been no exception.

To make a long story short, Apollo 13 hit Earth’s atmosphere on time. The re-entry into Earth’s Atmosphere cut off all communications between Earth and Apollo 13. That’s normal. But Apollo 13 was late coming out of the black out and for splash down in the ocean. They were not just late. They were 20 minutes late! It’s funny how NASA never questioned this tardiness. It was like they stopped off at a cloud and took a coffee break.

So I leave it up to you, are we alone? Maybe our astronauts are just confused. Maybe they have coffee break in their union contract.

US Air Force Top Secret Transportation Air Craft




Not all ships seen in the sky are from other worlds. Some air craft maybe from this world operated by the US Air Force. The military operates what is called Black Box Projects. These projects are funded by Congress without public hearings. Instead they are given funding by the House or Senate without question.

The ship above is estimated to be 600 feet long and 300 feet wide, with a height of 40 feet, the Black Triangle could weigh as much as 100 tons. This picture is courtesy of the National Institute for Discovery Science (NIDS).

You may think that “lighter than air” transportation systems went out with the destruction of the Hindenburg. According to NIDS, the Air Force is still using a very advance version of this old work horse. Leonard David says in his article “Investigation Casts Light on the Mysterious Flying Black Triangle” that they are big, black, and triangular lighter-than-air, blimp-style craft of the U.S. military. He claims that they are likely powered by "electrokinetic" drive. The lifting body-shaped airships have been in use from as early as 1980 to 1984.

On January 5, 2000, a large, silent, low-flying black triangular shaped craft was seen flying on a southwesterly direction between Highland, Illinois and Dupo, located less than 30 miles (48 kilometers) from St. Louis, Missouri. Citizens in Nevada got up in arms when many people witnessed such a craft in there skies. A small number of the sightings that NIDS has are on file coming from Canada and Europe. In the late 1980s, a craft fitting the above description was seen in the skies over Steelton, Pa.

People who witness seeing this craft say that they make no noise. A hybrid lighter-than-air craft would rely on electrokinetic/field drives, or airborne nuclear power units, lift gas, like a balloon. No helicopter-like downwash would be produced. Except for a slight humming from high-voltage control equipment -- a Big Black Delta makes no noise.

They are so large that they can carry massive payloads at low altitudes, cruising at speeds three to five times as fast as surface ships. These craft also fly at extreme altitudes, high above conventional aircraft and the pulsing of ground-based traffic control radar. This air craft has capabilities starting with silent running, diminished drag, elimination of sonic shockwaves, to operation at ground level, to operating in a full vacuum.

This is still a top secret military project. A lot of these sightings are at night. NIDS claims that they spend a long time aloft, weeks at a time. They can be thought of as ocean-going ships, rather than aircraft," NIDS says.




Heavy Lifting Stealth Blimp


L. Scott Miller, professor of Aerospace Engineering at Wichita State University in Wichita, Kansas, said the idea of a large, still-classified airship floating about is on the mark. But he does not think such a ship could be built. He claims that large airships are of benefit to the military. They are capable of carrying extremely large and heavy payloads at a reasonable speed, for which there is a real mission need, Miller said to Leonard David.



Miller suggests that an airship that could carry a large number of tanks, troops, and supplies into a region overnight would be fantastic. Careful shaping, the systems used, and carefully orchestrating operational procedures would make the airship stealthy. Low altitude flights, at night, and an awareness of enemy capabilities would be critical. Indeed, slow flight at the right time can render enemy radar useless. A 'stealth blimp' would be feasible in this respect!
***********************

Between the world wars, the US Government would not sell Germany Helium to place in its blimps because the US feared that Germany would use blimps as a weapon against other nations. This is why the Hindenburg filled with Hydrogen burned so quickly. The Hindenburg burst into flames in 1937, killing 35 of the 97 people on board and one member of the ground crew.

The reason why the United States took this attitude was because of the Zeppelin raids in World War 1. These airship raids were approved by the Kaiser of Germany on January 19, 1915. In December 1915 new Q-class airships were delivered to both the German Army and Navy as well as additional P-class Zeppelins. The Q-class simply added two more gas cells to the P-class, lengthening the craft to 585 feet (178 m), adding 100,000 cubic feet (2,800 m3) of gas, and improving both ceiling and bomb-load.

The first raid of 1916 was organized by the German Navy. Nine Zeppelins were sent to Liverpool, England over the night of January 31 – February 1. A raid was launched on September 2–3, twelve Navy craft and four Zeppelins from the Army took part. The next raid came on October 1, 1916. Eleven Zeppelins were launched at targets in the Midlands and at London. On November 27–28, the Zeppelins avoided London for targets in the Midlands. There were 23 airship raids in 1916 in which 125 tons of ordnance were dropped, killing 293 people and injuring 691.

In World War 1, over 60 Zeppelins were lost, roughly evenly divided between accident and enemy action. 51 raids had been undertaken, in which 5,806 bombs were dropped, killing 557 people and injuring 1,358 while causing damages estimated at £1.5 million. It has been argued the raids were effective far beyond material damage in diverting and hampering wartime production. One estimate was that due to the 1915-16 raids, one sixth of the total normal output of munitions was entirely lost. England diverted 12 fighter squadrons and over 10,000 personnel to the nation’s Air Defenses.

Now What If……..

In our age of terrorism, what if a group of rich terrorist financed the building of this new type of blimp like the one in the picture at the top of this blog. With the high amount of worldwide scientist/technician unemployed, these terrorist could build three blimps and about 100 smart high explosive and fire bombs with the aid of rogue nations. They send these three blimps to a position of 120,000 feet above Washington, DC., the docks of New Jersey, and San Diego harbor. At a selected time, they take out the White House, the Capital, and the Pentagon. That would take out US leadership in a matter of seconds.

At the same time, oil and LNG storage areas can be taken out as well as the NYSE and other stock and bond exchanges. On the west coast, several of our “top of the line” naval ships can be destroyed all in a matter of minutes.

The blimps can stay in the sky for weeks without detection. The public and the government would be in a state of confusion for months.

How do you know that you were not abducted?




I received an email asking me if I believed that I was abducted by aliens. As far as abductions by aliens, in my case, that is possible. All I know is that I was coming home from a date at 1:00 AM in the west end of Pittsburgh from a community called Crafton, Pa., when I spotted a well lit up highway going north toward the Ohio River. I thought that I could take that road to the Ohio River then drive up the Monongahela River home to West Mifflin. That would save me some time. I did not know of this road and did not know it was built.

I got on the road and drove for 10 minutes. I thought that I should be at the Ohio River by now since the river was no more than 5 miles away. Cars passed me going the other way. I thought to myself that the moon looked funny but thought that it was an illusion. I turned in the road between the divided highway and drove the 10 minutes back to Crafton. Then I went home.

That weekend I went back to see where that road lead. I could see better in daylight. But to my surprise, there was no road. I found an isolated dead end, next to a stream where I got on the highway just a few nights before.

So if I was not on this highway, then where was I and what was I really doing? I was not drinking, taking drugs, or smoking anything. That I do not do and never did. So what is the explanation?


Aliens who Love Humans

Alien Abductions have been a way of life for at least since early man started walking the earth. You find this in early text written by man in just about every culture on Earth. Read Genesis 6:4 in your bible. The giants are cited in several passages. They are variously referred to as Emim, or "Terrors" (Gen. 14:5; Deut. 2:10), Rephaim, or "Weakeners" or "Dead Ones" (2 Sam. 23:13; 1 Chron. 11:15), Gibborim, or "Giant Heroes" (Job 16:4), Zamzummim, or "Achievers" (Deut. 2:10), Anakim, or "Long-necked" (Deut. 2:10; Josh. 11:22, 14:15), and Awwim or "Devastators" and "Serpents." Other giants are mentioned in these texts as well, such as Goliath (2 Sam. 21:19), a giant with twelve fingers and twelve toes who is mentioned as one of the Rephaim (2 Sam. 21:20), and a tall Egyptian (1 Chron. 11:23). The passage of Numbers 13:26-33 recounts the Nephilim of Canaan that Joshua and the other Hebrew spies saw. Furthermore, according to Judaic lore, a certain one of the Nephilim, Arba, built a city, Kiriath Arba, which was named for its builder and is now known as Hebron.

Convincing Evidence of Abduction

I have been reading about abductions since the 1960s from many foreign books. But the most convincing abduction was the case of Betty and Barney Hill in the northeast United States.

http://www.ufos-aliens.co.uk/cosmichills.html

This case is convincing because the aliens really screwed up. First they did a bad job of masking Betty and Barney’s memory. Second, the aliens talked too much. They told Betty where they are from. They even showed her a star chart and pointed to their star system. Later, Betty was able to draw a detailed sketch of the star system Zeta Reticuli which is in the Reticulum constellation, 6 years before astronomers even discovered it! A 1,000 years from now, we may be landing on their planet.

They walk among us!

One Sunday in November 2010, a friend and I went food shopping at Giant in Susquehanna Township in Pennsylvania. We neared the Pharmacy area when my friend made a comment about this very skinny lady by the newspaper and magazine section. I looked up and noticed that she was very skinny or boney. Then I notice how she was walking. She had a puppet like movement to her. That really got my attention since I have read that aliens walk that way.

I kept watching until she turned around. She had the worst blond wig on that I have ever seen. She looked a lot like the above left hand picture but with the eyes of the alien in the right hand picture. These people are called alien hybrids. They are people with both human and alien ancestry.

Some of these people can read minds. Some communicate by thought. I started to get scared. What if the alien finds out that I know that she is just a few feet from me? That is when I realized that I had “Alien Phobia.” I just about ran to the back of the store. If I was thinking, I would have taken a picture of the alien with my cell phone. When I was able to get my composure back, I went back to the front of the store. The alien was nowhere to be found.


UFOs are not new to the Area

The Harrisburg area is a “hot bed” of UFO activity. That is because Central Pennsylvania has many Power Plants and major electric lines leading from them. Some UFOs use these lines to refuel their crafts. In the early 1990s, a friend and I watch a UFO refuel over a major power line in Lower Paxton, Pa. It took about 2 hours to refuel then it moved slowly to the south toward Middletown, Pa. Like a train leaving the station it increased in speed until it moved quickly out of sight.

The Future with Off Worlders



With my blog on Aliens, I must have hit a nerve. Some of you think that I just lost it. Others who had experiences of the "first kind" want to know more. Personally, at age 21, I lost 20 minutes when I figured out that I was given false memories when coming home one night. To this day, I don't know what really happened.

Well here is some of the research that I have done on the subject. This research was not done using civilians or people named "Bubba." These are military and ex-military people. This was published in my blog on October 10, 2010." The full blog link is below.

Dealing With the Visitor’s

Now I am telling you about the greatest change in our economy since Europeans colonized America. It will not happen today, next year, or even in ten years. That is trade with people from other worlds. All you have to do is look at the evidents.

50 years ago, unidentified flying objects (UFO) from way beyond the beltway seized the capital's imagination.

The statement that UFOs normally only appear in desolate areas is definitely not true. Especially considering the 1952 buzzing of the White House, Capitol building, and the Pentagon. There were basically two separate waves of UFOs over the US Capitol.

Seven former U.S. Air Force personnel gathered in Washington Monday Sept. 27, 2010 to recount UFO sightings over nuclear weapons facilities in decades past. “This planet is being visited by beings from another world, which for whatever reason has taken an interest in the nuclear arms race which began at the end of World War II,” said UFO researcher and author Robert Hastings. He added that more than 120 former military personnel have told him about UFOs visiting nuclear sites.

Interesting List of Respected People who Affirm the Existence of UFOs

Just looking at the facts, people from places other than Earth are visiting this planet. These people arrive in machines that we on Earth are not capable of building. They must have manufacturing plants and people who can build such machines. These same people must live someplace and have an organized society. They must have a policy with dealing in human affairs on Earth.The US Government and other governments must know that they exist. But for now, the world governments must deny the existence of these people. Just like with the Steel Industry workers, the people of this planet will carry out the world policy of denial of their governments.

Faith Vs New Life Forms











NASA has discovered a new bacteria that feeds on arsenic—the first time a microorganism has used a toxic chemical for growth and life. It was found in the salty Mono Lake in California. It had previously been assumed that organisms need phosphorous to function, but the bacteria uses arsenic in its place. “You can potentially cross phosphorus off the list of elements required for life," says one scientist, according to the Daily Beast blog.





Does a New Life Form Mean God Is Dead?


This new life form is as old as mankind. They are just now known because no one has documented them in America or in Europe. Man has been interacting with alien beings and animals since the beginning. Above is a picture taken by the US AirForce in 1952 when UFOs buzzed the capital and the White House. What is new is that our United States government is transitioning from a policy of discrediting citizens who believe or know about extra terrestrials to a policy of preparing the population for official contact with aliens. Above is a picture of a top secret AirForce Base near Harrisburg, Pa. Most of it is underground. This article is just one of the pieces to this new puzzle to prepare the American people in the idea that “We are not alone.”



There is a myth among the public that says that because a person is a scientist then they don’t believe in God. I am a scientist and I believe in God. Nothing is further from the truth. The highest authority in the Catholic Church said in 2008 that they believe that there are other life forms in the universe. The qualification for being a scientist does not include being an atheist. The qualification for being a priest does not include a nonbelief in extra terrestrial aliens.



God created the universe meaning that he created the extra terrestrial aliens as well. When the government allows you to know that they exist, just remember that God created them as well and invite them to the church of your choice.

A Call to Duty!

Introduction

As you probably know by now, Mayor Linda Thompson nominated Jennifer L. Smallwood and me to serve on the Harrisburg Authority board. City Council had a Legislative Session on Monday, August 16, 2010 to consider Jennifer’s Resolution 53-2010 and my Resolution 54-2010 to serve on the board. Both Resolutions failed. I can’t speak for Jennifer but what it looked like to me as the time of the vote drew near, we were going to be turned down. It is nothing personal. Business is business! I don’t think it was because of our positions or our qualifications. We were voted down by the majority of City Council because we voted for Linda Thompson to become mayor at the polls.

At least that is what our City Council Leaders want us to think!

Even if City Council would have voted for me to take a seat on the board, I still had a problem because my employer would probably stop me from taking my seat. My employer told me that if I just say “no” to this nomination, it would save me a lot of grief. I asked, just let me play out this hand and we will deal with my grief later.

What are the Motives?

We all have motives for everything that we do. That does not necessarily mean that what we want is bad. My motive for wanting to be on the board was because I was called to do my civic duty. As you know from City Council in the past 8 years, I am interested in Government and have often done my civic duties when called upon. But I would like to see Hale St. and Market St. in front of the High School repaired. That is my motive for being civically involved in local government.

I believe the Mayor nominated me knowing that City Council would turn me down. She knew that my employer would never approve of me taking my seat. However, she knew that I was highly qualified to take a seat. From the time Linda Thompson took her seat on City Council to the present, I was involved in civic activities in the City of Harrisburg. I was involved with investigating the incinerator deal and I went to all the incinerator hearings. I believe her motive was to show the public that City Council will turn down anyone that she sends down to City Council for an appointment.

Wanda R. D. Williams, Brad Koplinski, and Eugenia Smith who never voted against me before, voted against me on this issue. They want the public to think that it is because I am a “yes man” to the Mayor. The real reason is because they are part of the “Reed Team.” It does not matter that Mayor Reed is out of office. He still calls the shots when it comes to his branch of the Democratic Party. Mayor Reed and many of his partners do not want an investigation or forensic audit. So I believe that he instructed these three council people to vote “no” on any nominees who believe in conducting an audit of past spending at the Harrisburg Authority. This is nothing personal. As I said, business is business.

In my opinion, a forensic audit may show unethical activity. In my opinion, it may also show criminal or civil liability. That could damage the Reed Team political activities in the Harrisburg Area. The council people are just following orders.

Patty Kim wants a former member of the Board Reappointed. She will not vote for any member of the board until that one person is reappointed. For some reason, she believes in that individual and she does not care if her vote further damages the Harrisburg Authority. As long as she gets her way, that is what matters.

President Gloria Martin Roberts and Kelly D. Summerford want to get the Authority up and running. They believe that the Mayor has the right to appoint whoever she wants just as long as they meet the qualifications of the job.

Susan Brown Wilson has a long business background. She works in middle management for IBM and knows how projects should be managed. She wants business people who can think independently of the political process and politicians. She wants people who can solve problems. She wants a forensic audit and will vote for business people who will act in this manner.

Members of the public should have a motive. That motive should be to pay as little in taxes and in fees as possible. Many people think that the incinerator problem is just a City issue. What they fail to understand is that the County Commissioners of Dauphin County put every homeowner in Dauphin County as well as every renter at risk of paying higher taxes, rent, and fees by co-signing to finance this project.

Public Corruption

At the City Council Administrative meeting, I gave the seven city council members what I knew and what I suspect about the corruption that caused the problems for the City of Harrisburg, the Harrisburg Authority, and the taxpayers of Dauphin County.

First let me say this! The reason why a City or County has an authority is to remove legal liability from the citizens of the City or County. With the City of Harrisburg and Dauphin County interference with the projects of the Harrisburg Authority, that protection for the citizen was taken away.

License to Steal

The engineers, lawyers, finance and accounting professionals working on the incinerator project were really High School dropouts or they were very good smart professional criminals. Barlow Projects Inc. was the primary contractor on the incinerator project. They were not bondable and that fact was kept from City Council and the Dauphin County Commissioners. The bond question never came up at any of the City Council committee meetings. No bond on the contractor means that if something happens to the project, no investigation will take place. No investigation means that no civil or criminal prosecution by the bonding agent would take place. As a result, the City of Harrisburg, Dauphin County, and the Harrisburg Authority gave Barlow Projects Inc. a license to steal and mismanage the money for this project.

Missing Money

Someone from the City or the Authority presented Barlow Projects Inc. with a $150 Million check before the project was started. This check had no controls or restrictions attached to it. The contractor could do whatever they wanted with the money. I can make 10% per year on that money easily and safely. That is $15 million per year. Barlow Projects could have used the money to pay on other projects not related to the Harrisburg Authority. They could use that to pay back money to people that helped make the project possible. In any event, the spending of this money is not accounted for.

It took the signatures of the Harrisburg Authority, the City of Harrisburg, and Dauphin County to get the Investment Banker to float the Municipal Bond Issue. The investment banker sold the entire issue to one client. This is called “Private Placement.” Since this issue needed three cosigners, which should have told any educated attorney or money manager that this project was already in trouble. The bondholder was not worried because if the Harrisburg Authority or the City should fail, Dauphin County would be liable for the money. No matter what, they still get paid.

It should have told the people looking out for the City’s interest that the Rating Agencies see this project as very risky. This is why the people involved in the project gave a large investor an “Iron Clad” guarantee before the bond holder invested their money. Here is the reason why negotiating with the bond trustees to reduce the interest payments is a “fruitless” effort. The City, County, and the Authority have nothing to offer the bond trustee committee or the bond holder.

Watching the Project

I knew from the City Council member’s line of questioning that City Council was going to approve the project loan. I approached City Council President Richard House and told him my concerns about the management of the project. He gave me the duty of reading the management reports and reporting to City Council any problems that I find in the reports. Here is the reason to this day; I have a mail stop in City Council’s office.

The Authority did not manage the project or the contractor. No standard or procedures were set and the Authority did not inspect the work of the contractor. Authority Employees were reported talking about how Barlow Project people wasted time by playing cards while on duty. The contract called for city residents to be involved in the construction of the project. After the project was underway, I reported to City Council that the closest person working on the project to Harrisburg lived 36 miles away. This led to someone on the project to change the address of all the contract employees to a hotel address in the City of Harrisburg. THAT IS ILLEGAL!

From the first month, the project was behind. After the third month, it was obvious that the project reports were being falsified. Authority employees were saying one thing while the reports said another.

The Cover Up

Mayor Reed blamed City Council for interfering in the incinerator project after he publicly proclaimed the project is finished and a complete success. City Council’s job is to legislate. It is the job of the Mayor to manage the City of Harrisburg. It is the job of the Harrisburg Authority to manage the incinerator project. This they did not do.

Mayor Reed secretly borrowed $25 Million to secretly replace money that Barlow Projects reportedly gave to a third party contractor. That contractor went out of business and took the money with them according to one of the project attorneys. The money is not accounted for. BORROWING THE MONEY BY THE MAYOR WITHOUT CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL WAS ILLEGAL. Turning it over to the Authority was illegal. Hiding the fact that it was borrowed money was also illegal.

Inaction of the County Commissioners

After seeing this disaster on the City level, I barged into one of the County Commissioner’s meetings when all three commissioners were signing contracts. I told them about the disaster and ask that they look into my accusations. They were not impressed with what I had to tell them. They showed full confidence in Mayor Reed’s Management Style. However, I continued to send them written reports of the committee meetings held by City Council. The county commissioners were not moved at all and kept their head in the sand until they discovered that they were going to start paying bond interest payments. Then they paid attention. Soon people living in the Harrisburg suburbs will have to pay for this incinerator disaster just like the people of Harrisburg.

What you can do!

We need a forensic audit done at the Harrisburg Authority for the incinerator project, the sewer system, and the water system. With what I had told you concerning the incinerator project should be enough to trigger an audit. But it has not.

If we allow this type of mismanagement to go on, some of our political leaders in the future will invite others to do the same thing to us citizens and we will pay out more tax money.

I don’t care if you live in the City or outside the City, you want to call the State Auditor General and tell him that you want a forensic audit of the Harrisburg Authority done because you suspect civil and criminal activity in regards to their expenses with the Harrisburg Incinerator.

A Call to Duty!

Then I want you to forward this blog to as many people that you can think of and ask them to do the same thing. If they do not have a computer, print as many copies as you can and give it to your friends, relatives, and neighbors. If we get everyone involved then we can get it done!

The Big Oil Lie!

By know you all know about the big oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Soon that spill will be the big spill of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. Over the past month, British Petroleum (BP) claimed that they are doing all they can to stop the oil leak. What they are not saying is that they are trying to stop the oil from flowing freely into the environment after they create a pipeline to the surface to transfer the oil from under ground to tankers on the surface. The disaster started when the executives at BP -- not wanting to seal the newly drilled well using safe industry standards just to save money. As a result, we have several workers dead, a missing oil platform, and a massive oil spill. This spill will put hundreds of fisherman out of business, raise seafood prices, and destroy the vacation industry in the northeastern and north central Gulf of Mexico. Let’s not mention the killing of thousands of animals in the area.

About a month ago, the company successfully placed a large dome over the pipeline on the sea floor. This did not work because the water flowing with the oil froze into ice cristals stopping the oil from reaching the ships above. So they removed the dome to try something else. If the objective is to stop the oil spill, why not leave the dome in place?

The company's next effort -- BP plans to use a "top kill" procedure -- the pumping of thick, viscous fluid twice the density of water into the site of the leak to stop the flow so the well can then be sealed with cement. This is after they had robots on the ocean floor place a pipe into the larger pipe that is gushing oil on the ocean floor. They hope to seal the larger pipe around the smaller pipe so that they can transport the oil to the surface. Meanwhile, millions of barrols of oil flows into the environment. The company has missed "deadline after deadline" for a month, claiming that BP is doing all it can to plug the leak.

If the top kill procedure does not work, BP will try to fit a second, smaller containment dome over the ruptured pipe, BP Chief Operating Officer Doug Suttles told CNN's "American Morning." If the second dome does not work, he said, the company would "still have plenty of other options," Suttles said. The company could try a "junk shot," which would involve plugging the well with rubber and other substances, BP Managing Director Robert Dudley said Sunday.

However, a permanent solution could take until August -- the estimated completion date for a relief well, said Coast Guard Commandant Adm. Thad Allen, the Obama administration's point person in the Gulf.

By the time the runaway well is capped, the amount of oil discharged could be comparable to the total released in the Exxon Valdez environmental disaster 20 years ago, according to the experts and CNN.

Rebuilding Harrisburg

On Tuesday, April 20, 2010, the Community and Economic Development Committee chaired by Patty Kim had a meeting to discuss the City’s ten year tax abatement program. This is a program to give real estate developers a tax break for developing property within the City of Harrisburg. Tax breaks are important for the City to give and for real estate developers to get.

The Harrisburg neighborhoods have lost population since Hurricane Agnes. With a declining population, the City also had to deal with a declining tax base. At the same time, the City has to maintain the streets, garbage collection, and deal with a rising crime rate. Parts of the sewer system date back to the Civil War and are in need of serious repair. Many homes in Harrisburg are over 100 years old. Even more are in serious disrepair. Some have fallen down due to neglect. The City has pockets of blight due to abandoned and neglected homes. The City and School District debt situation does not help the “City Population Flight” situation either. Between the City and the School District, taxpayers owe over $1 Billion.

Here lies the reason for the April 20th meeting. This is one of several meetings that Chairperson Patty Kim promise to have with the public.

The City Government and Private Developers

City Council realized that they need private development in the City of Harrisburg. However, they are divided on how much development to have versus how much help to give long time home owners who have stayed in the City in good times and in bad time.

One faction led by President Gloria Martin Roberts wants to give homeowners tax breaks if they repair their homes. She sights that over 48% of property in Harrisburg is not taxable because of the State, County, and City Governments. She also noted that churches in Harrisburg and other non-profit organization cannot be taxed. Here lies her reasoning for lowering tax abatements for outside developers. The City needs tax money.

Other views brought forth at the meeting were more pro-developer. A Philadelphia council person spoke to the committee. He thought that Harrisburg should give up to 15 years of tax abatement to developers. The councilmen also is in favor of building apartment buildings with shops on the first floor to give residents a place to shop, have dry cleaning done, and give the residents places to eat. He said that Philadelphia, over the years, has been successful in raising their City population and reducing their blighted areas. Philadelphia targeted the “empty nesters.”

But investment takes money and comes with risk. Ten years ago Mayor Reed decided to take the risk of retrofitting the City Incinerator with Dauphin County’s help. It was supposed to be the answer to the City’s decreasing tax base with money to spear. Over $350 Million later, doubling the City’s debt, Harrisburg has an up to date incinerator that does not make the money that it was supposed to make for the City. Because of this failure, Harrisburg is faced with a bond payment in 2010 alone that is more than the total City budget.

Gloria Martin Roberts asked where this money is going to come from to give this tax abatement. The City is already is a bad debt situation. Ms. Roberts asked the young audience if they would stay in the City and use the services of the Harrisburg School District. Most of the audience said that they would stay in the City but send their children to private school.

My View Point!

Both the man from Philadelphia and Gloria Martin Roberts have good points. The Philadelphia councilmen talked about bringing in “empty nesters” into the City. “Empty Nesters” are people who want to move out of their large houses because their children are now grown and have moved away. Gloria wants to help out the property taxpayers already living in the city. We can do both if the City and its people are willing to do so.

The City employee “Grant Writers” can help with Ms. Roberts’s side of the program. These grant writers can find Dauphin County, Pennsylvania State, and Federal grants that can be used for home improvements such as energy saving appliances, window and other home improvements. Most residents in the City fall into the low income classifications. This could give these residents incentives to get needed work done.

Pennsylvania is second in senior citizen population behind Florida. The City can market itself targeting senior citizens just as Philadelphia has done. Many “empty nesters” don’t want to handle home maintenance and have no need for a school district. They would be ideal for condos or apartment living. Tax abatements can be used for this purpose.

As an investor, I know that any investment comes with risk. Here are the risks! It takes time to bring in shop owners and tenants. Do you know that the empire state building was finished in 1929 but was not fully occupied until 1956? So investor money would be at risk and we already seen one big building on Cameron Street that went bust recently. I don’t have to tell you about the Incinerator disaster. These are the things that Mayor Thompson and City Council must decide to do knowing all the risk to the City and its people.

The Workings of the Fourth Crow

Reno alumna awards scholarships to students who overcome the odds
By Guy Cliftongclifton@rgj.com • April 16, 2010


Peggy Solomon Grove knows well the road that 10 seniors from Reno High School have traveled because she has been on it herself.

Some are children from broken homes, in foster care, victims of abuse, from disadvantaged homes, but each has their own story to tell. At the same time, however, they also have stayed in school against nearly insurmountable odds.

And now, thanks to Grove, a 1960 Reno High School graduate who lives in Harrisburg, Pa., they will have the opportunity to attend college.

This past week, she awarded 10 graduating seniors full tuition scholarships to either the University of Nevada, Reno or Truckee Meadows Community College.

These scholarships, recommended by school counselors, were offered to students who have overcome unusual personal challenges and understand that getting a college education is one way they can help themselves, their family and others.

Solomon Rosenberg Scholarship

Grove established the Solomon Rosenberg Scholarship last year to honor two Mr. Rosenbergs who were instrumental in her life.

The first was Mr. Earl Rosenberg, her high school counselor, who she said saw in her something no one else had.

"In the middle of my junior year, he saw that I was struggling with my academic program and called me into his office to discuss my future goals," Grove said. "I told him of my predicament. My mother had been both physically and mentally ill most of my childhood. My step-father, often unemployed, was abusive and undependable."

The family lived north of Reno, at the base of Peavine Peak in a home that had no electricity or running water until the mid-1950s.

"It was rustic and pioneer-like to say the least," she said. "I had three younger sisters, and we were often not well cared for. We never had enough food or heat or clothes. I started working at the age of 10 sewing for people, plus for my sisters. I also was responsible for the cooking, cleaning and caring for my sisters."

At 16, she went to work at Lerner's clothing store on Virginia Street and earned enough to buy a used car and began helping to buy food and propane for her family. There was little money left for a college savings account. Her grades started to slip.

"Due to a worsening of my home situation, I even contemplated quitting school," she said. "School had been my refuge. It was the only place where I received any praise or respect."

Encouragement

Rosenberg encouraged her to apply for two small scholarships: one from the Redi-Mix Concrete Company and the other from The Police Protective Association.

"These two small $150 scholarships were only enough to pay for my first two semesters at (UNR) and give me the hope that someday I would attain a college degree. This meant the world to me. Somebody believed enough in me to invest in me with a scholarship. It was the proudest day of my life when I walked across the stage on graduation night."

She attended UNR for three years and then transferred and graduated from Elizabethtown College in Pennsylvania.

Another dream

In 1979, she met a second Mr. Rosenberg, who would help her realize another dream. "I wanted to start my own school for paraprofessional entry-level medical professionals," she said. "Mr. Ollie Rosenberg offered me a building that had been in a recent flood and was in great disrepair but would be rent-free for one year. Ollie would be the second Mr. Rosenberg to see something in my dreams."

She and Ollie Rosenberg later began a relationship that lasted until his sudden death in 1996, just two days before her entry into the hospital for a stem cell transplant for advanced breast cancer.

The school she started is now 31 years old. She sold it in 1987 and now manages commercial real estate holdings with the help of her two sons.

Trust, scholarships

After Ollie Rosenberg's death, Grove helped set up the Ollie Rosenberg Trust to award scholarships to at-risk students in Harrisburg, Pa.

Last year, she began awarding scholarships, using her own funds, to students from Reno High School. "I still have family out here," she said. "This is where I got my base, and this is about paying back and helping to teach kids about paying forward. During the interviews, I asked each student to remember this chance that they have been given and when they have graduated from college and are established, that they to need to consider giving this same opportunity to future students.

"I also told them that I expect them to do well and that I will be keeping in touch and bugging them if necessary."

Grove said that she has never sought publicity for any of her charitable donations, but she made an exception now because this year will be her 50th Reno High School class reunion, and she hoped that her example might spur other successful classmates to consider establishing similar scholarship funds.

Prepare for the 2011 Annual Charlotesville Family History Conference

http://charlottesville-fhc.org/

Charlottesville Family History Center was established in 1970. The Charlottesville LDS Family History Center (FHC) is one of more than 4,000 centers around the world providing training and resources to research family history and genealogy. The center provides free computer access to Family Search, Heritage Quest, and a multitude of on-line family history databases sponsored by the LDS church and others. Microfilm readers and printers are also available to access millions of film media records in the local collection or on loan from the Family History Library. Here is where you can learn to document your personal family history like I have with my family.

In 1803, Lacy Brown was born in Orange County Virginia. As a “Free Man” he moved to an area call a “Free Union.” Later it was called Stony Point, a suburb of Charlottesville, Va. Part of Stony Point was known as “Brown Town” because the land was generally owned by members of the Brown Family. Many of these Browns today still own the land handed down to them by their ancestors. “Free Unions” were areas where ex-slaves and captured Native Americans moved to so that they could not be recaptured and sold back into slavery.

After the Civil War (April 1865), a slave named Eliza Thorn, a half Cherokee, gathered up her family from Col. Francis Slaughter’s Plantation in Culpeper, Va. Bought a Conestoga Wagon and a team of Horses, bought cattle, and moved to Stony Point, Va. There, she bought 11 acres of land. This land existed in the family until the 1980s. Eliza Thorn made furniture in her spear time when she was not working for the master. This is how she made the money to move her family to Stony Point. In the 1970s, I had the opportunity to see bedroom furniture made by Eliza Thorn. She used wooden nails in her furniture. This is how she was able to finance her move.

Eliza Thorn had three families, the West, the Walkers, and the Thorns. I fall along the line of her daughter Eliza Walker who married Reubon. They had a daughter, Eliza J. Walker. Eliza J. Walker (born June 25, 1881) married George W. Blue in 1895 by Rev. Daniel Brown at Free Union Baptist Church. The Blue’s were Cherokee Native Americans. They probably took their last name from their Cherokee clan, the “Blue” clan. From 1803 to 1923, most of my family history on my mother’s side took place in and around Free Union Baptist Church. My family is still at service every Sunday at this church.

My Grandmother Eliza Blue (Born 1899 as Eliza Lucenda Blue) and Grandfather John Brown got married in this church that still stands and is still in service today. Most people called this Eliza, Lucy Brown. They caught a train headed for Pittsburgh Pa. because my grandfather found out that they had jobs in the steel mills in that City. But it takes money to travel by train and when they got as far as Steelton Pa., the money ran out. He went across the street and got a job with Bethlehem Steel. Both grand parents lived in Steelton until they died in the 1950s and 1960s. The family moved from generations of farmers to steel worker. Here is where the name Eliza was retired from use in our family.

My mother Jean Julia Williams, (born Jean Julia Brown) married William Jackson Williams II, a decendent of the Western Cherokee Nation. They moved to Pittsburgh Pa. Their children became administrators, healthcare workers, and computer scientist.

From 1923 to the present started the era of First Baptist Church in Steelton. The descendents of the Lucy and John Brown Family still worship in this church today.

My daughters, Stephanie and Amanda have a colorful family history on their mother’s side. While Eliza Thorn was a slave in Culpeper Va., Amanda Ann Porter became a slave. Amanda Ann Porter lived in a Native American village in Spottsylvania, Va. Slavery laws dictated that any Indian that could be caught can be sold into slavery. Indians did not have rights and could be killed or sold with no legal problems. A group of enterprising Virginia citizens raided her village, killed the men and sold the women and children into slavery. Amanda Ann Porter was one of these children sold into slavery.

Amanda Ann Porter was sold to a White slave breeder named Noah Smith. My ex-wife Amanda and my daughter Amanda Ann Williams III are named after her. Mr. Smith had children by Amanda. One was Thomas Porter. After slavery, Thomas Porter married Mary Yeager. In that day, it was not the custom for a non-white to marry a white woman. In fact, it could get you killed. To this day, General Yeager, the first man who broke the sound barrier in the Bell X-1 rocket plane in 1947, will not admit that they are related to the Porter family (See the movie, "The Right Stuff"). Thomas Porter had Thomas Porter II who had Amanda Ann Porter (Williams). Amanda Ann Williams had Stephanie Ann Williams (now Tulloch) and Amanda Ann Williams III.

Stephanie Ann Tulloch and Damine Tulloch now have a family, living in the Harrisburg Area. Damine is a Jamacian national. Stephanie is a line manager for Computer Aid, a multinational computer service company. Damine is a Satellite TV installer. They have a son Daniel. Damine is made up of Asian Indian, English, and Native Americans who lived on his home island nation.

By learning from the Charlottesville Family History Center, Fifth Annual 2011 Family History Conference, you will be able to construct your legacy and bring pride and confidence to your future generations.

Can you afford Home Daycare?

Bill 9-2010 – An Ordinance amending Title III, Public Safety Code, Part VII, Fire Laws, Section 3-903.14, day-care homes and center occupancies of the Codified Ordinances of the City of Harrisburg to eliminate the automatic sprinkler system requirement that is financially onerous to existing businesses, operates as a deterrent to new development, and ultimately raises costs of day care for City residents.

This is what Harrisburg City Council was working on the night of April 6, 2010 in a hot sticky City Council Chamber at City Hall. On one side was the State of Pennsylvania, the Harrisburg Fire Department, and the Fire Fighter’s Union. On the other side was a state daycare union and parents with children.

The State and the Fire Fighters

According to our State and Fire Fighters, our daycare centers are disasters waiting to happen. They argue what if a fire starts, How would the children, some not able to walk, get out of the daycare? They argue that they care about the safety of these children who can’t take care of themselves. A sprinkler system would put out most fires before they become serious enough to kill children. They claim that a system can be put in place starting at $8,000. The Fire Fighters President Eric Jenkins said that “You can’t put a price on a child’s life.”

The Plight of the Parents

I asked my daughter Stephanie Ann Tulloch about the cost of daycare and this is what she said about her son in daycare today. Her husband Damine Tulloch is from Western Jamaica and is a Satellite TV Installation Manager. Stephanie and Damine are about to have a second child in a few months. That child will also has to have daycare. They are in the upper working class but still struggle with daycare expenses. Here is what she said.

“Daniel goes to KinderCare on Londonderry Rd. The full time cost for a 4 year old is $172 a week. The cost for a 5 year old to go there for a half day because they are in Kindergarten for the other half is $118/week. The full time cost of an infant is $200 per week. Keep in mind that KinderCare, as well as many other daycare centers, offers a sibling discount of 10% off of the oldest child's tuition. Every year the costs rises so when the kids have a birthday and are transferred to another room (e.g. moves from the 3 year old room to the 4 year old room), the parent assumes that their price will drop since the price goes lower as the child’s age increases. But that is not the case because tuition rises along with inflation. For example, when Daniel was 3, we paid $172 per week. When he turned 4 we saw that the price for a 4 year old was $168. But soon after he turned 4, KinderCare informed us about their rate increase which put us right back at $172.”

“As long as the demand is high for childcare, the price of daycare will be high. Parents can no longer afford to stay home with their kids. Both parents must work in this economy. Also, the times when grandparents watched their grandchildren during the day are long gone due to the increase in the retirement age. Furthermore, most grandparents can't even afford to retire when they reach the retirement age. A parent(s) only alternative is daycare. Daycare is becoming a necessity, and is becoming an inelastic service like gasoline.”

Stephanie is a line manager of a Multinational Computer Service Company. She is also the Secretary of the Darnell L Williams Corporation. She has ideas about owning a large corporation of her own one day. This is what she believes. “My dream is to one day own my own daycare center and possible turn it into a franchise. We live in an area where the demand is high so there is a lot of money to be made. Daycare workers are cheap yet the revenue is high due to the high prices I would be able to charge in this market.”

Stephanie attended this same school, then called “Little Peoples Daycare” in the late 1980s and early 1990s. At that time, I paid $60 per week for her to attend Daycare. KinderCare is not the typical daycare. A KinderCare preschool education is for parents who want to give their children a head start in Grammar School. Some KinderCare organizations teach languages as well as advance subjects. By the time many KinderCare children start Kindergarten, they already know how to read on a first grade level, add and subtract numbers, and write the alphabet.

This is the Reality of the Situation!

At the meeting, the daycare workers said that they are the lowest paid workers in their industry. Most daycares are not as big as KinderCare. Most daycare services are run by a mother just trying to get by. State license Home Daycare can only have up to six children. As President Gloria Martin Roberts put it, they are not in it for the money. They are in it for the “love of children.” By mandating that these mothers place an $8,000 to $15,000 sprinkler system in their homes, the home child care mother would be forced out of business or forced to run an underground daycare center. If so, the state that regulates a home daycare today will not be able to regulate them if made to go underground. If that happens, the hopes and dreams of the fire department will not be realized. An unregulated daycare would place the children in more danger than they are in now.

Most parents that use home daycare in the City of Harrisburg are poor. Many are single family mothers who must work and can’t stay home with the children. Many make so little on their jobs that their income is supplemented by welfare. They cannot afford KinderCare caliber daycare.

My Opinion

First, Stephanie is a line manager and is working on getting her MBA. Once Stephanie runs the Business Plan Numbers, she will forget about starting a daycare center. The children will drive her crazy as well as the parents. The people in the daycare business love children and that is the primary motive, not money. If you like children barfing up on your carpet, if you like food fights, if you like to treat bumps and cuts, or if you like parents skipping their payments then this is the business you should start.

Second, why would the state pass such a law and mandate that every home daycare business have a sprinkler system? It is obvious that home daycare businesses can’t afford it. The parents that use these daycares can’t economically support it. But corporate daycare like Stephanie’s KinderCare can. It looks to me like the corporate daycare lobby talked to the State Legislators and got them to pass this law with the objective of running home daycare out of the business. Then corporate daycare would have less competition. They can raise prices more than what they are raised now. They can also control and take over the home care industry dictating prices and market share. The poor don’t have a lobby and they don’t have a clue that they are being attacked by corporate daycare companies.

Third, Harrisburg City Council is made up of five mothers. Mayor Linda Thompson is also a mother and a grandmother. They are not about to pass a law to put the Cities home daycare services out of business. Even the two men on Council didn’t like the Bill. Gloria Martin Roberts is not taking this bill out of committee in its present form. All six of the present council people want to create a compromise bill that will satisfy the state, the fire fighters, and home daycare providers.

Last, this bill affects a lot of families in the area. If it affected me, I would contact my State Representative and State Senator and complain about this law or if you like this Bill, give your support. I would also contact Harrisburg City Council and make my views known.

The Grass is Always Greener on the Other Side!

People are always trying to win arguments by using race, color, class, living standards, ethnic groups, or sex. That is because the grass is always greener on the other side that the people know nothing about. That is why the definition of an expert in any subject is “a person from out of town.” For example, you know because of your prejudice that everyone living in your area knows nothing about the subject in question so you have to get the information from someone in say -- Japan, China, New York, LA, or Denver. Susie, the homeless lady, is not credible about the subject because she has no home, no money, and smells. You hear the same thing that Susie told you yesterday from Michele Obama. Mrs. Obama’s information must be correct even though Susie said the same thing. Susie for some reason is still wrong.

A Black woman called me over the weekend and told me Black people can’t run the City of Harrisburg. We need more people in the Jewish Community running the city because the Jewish people know how to stick together. Another Black lady called me and told me that Black people don’t know how to stick together because they want to follow the White Man all the time. Then I heard from another Black Woman who thinks that the City should be run by International people brought from outside the City of Harrisburg because no one here Black or White knows what they are doing.

Black people are not the only ones that do this. A family made up of 70 people of Pennsylvania Dutch, German, and Susquehanock Native American descendents surprised me with a birthday cake and gifts in Northern Pennsylvania on Easter Afternoon. They are considered White people among their neighbors. One woman asked me why she was a very white person while her father and a few of her Aunts and Uncles were darker. Some of her cousins were also dark. No one was as dark as me. But the majority of them were very white. One of her Uncles started suggesting that this line of talk was going to make me think that this family was not worthy of my friendship because I may think that I am better than they are.

I was shocked about 11 years ago when I ran for Pa. State Representative. One woman of Japanese decent came up to me and thanked me for running for office. She claimed that I was running to represent people like her who are kept down by the controlling classes.

When I worked at Westinghouse Electric Corporation in the 1980s, the management from England and the US were talking about how well the Japanese ran their companies. I had to sit in many meetings where the guest speaker was from some company in Japan. Then we had to try to use their methods in our management. If these brainiac managers would have waited 5 to 10 years, they would have seen that the Japanese economy was stagnant and that the Japanese were moving their production lines to China and India. After seeing the Japanese Economic Disaster, I said to some of my former workers, “So much for the Japanese way of doing things.”

With an economy only 20% as large as the US, I hear that the Chinese will be taking over the world economy soon. But I heard my High School History teacher tell us the same thing in the 1960s. My high school history books, written in the 1950s, told me that the US was obsessed with the “China trade” since the beginning of the 19th Century. But the Chinese have to control their currency to keep imported goods from over running the country. That is because the Chinese think that everyone else makes better products than they do.

Why did Columbus come to America in 1492? It was because he was trying to find a way to the Far East to set up trade and make money. Why? Because the people in the Far East made “good stuff” and the people in Europe didn’t! After World War II everyone in the world wanted to buy an American car because we made cars so well. Boy did that change in the 1980s!

It doesn’t matter who you are, the grass is always greener than it is in your back yard. It does not matter if you are talking about the City of Harrisburg, the United States, or the world. If you don’t know the people, then they must know what they are doing. People you know never do!
