Times of sadness, stress and anxiety are common to everyone and can be triggered by numerous factors. In response to tough situations, about 25 percent of Americans will experience sadness that may seem like depression, but the good news is that these feelings are often temporary.

Sometimes, overwhelming feelings of sadness remain persistent and significantly interfere with a person’s behavior, physical health and interaction with others. In these situations, depression could be the underlying cause. read on

West Palm Beach, FL – Mary Susan Pine, a Liberty Counsel client and sidewalk counselor, is a picture of courage and moral strength. For the last twenty years, she has spent virtually every Saturday in front of an abortion clinic, most recently the Presidential Women’s Center (“PWC”) in West Palm Beach. Susan counsels women who are considering abortion and provides help, resources, and support for women who choose life.

Susan’s dedication has made her a target of Eric Holder, Attorney General of the United States. On behalf of the United States, Holder sued Susan in federal court, seeking to fine her thousands of dollars and to permanently eject her from the public sidewalk outside PWC, because she supposedly “obstructed” a car. This is an obviously bogus political prosecution, designed solely to silence pro-lifers. Holder has admitted that he doesn’t have a “victim” because no one has ever complained; that the phantom car supposedly obstructed by Susan was attempting to enter PWC’s parking lot illegally, through a one-way exit; and that Susan did nothing more than use a marked crosswalk to approach someone with her life-affirming message. Liberty Counsel has been vigorously defending Susan since the lawsuit was filed in August 2010. read on

Boogai donated to this program this weekend.  The cell phones are turned in and then used to provide Phone Cards, enabling service members to call their families.

If you have an old or outdated phone, please consider donating it to this cause at the Link at bottom.

  • Local Airman Comments on Value of a Call Home

    Thank you for those cards. I ran into an Army guy just the other day, and he was telling me that some of the troops in his unit are really going through some rough times. That being said they (the calling cards) could not have come at a better time. I gave the Army SGT 100 cards to share with his unit.

    We now put a calling card in each bag of candy we make to take to the wounded at the hospital.

    I guess i just never realized how important some things in life are till i got here!!! A little thing such as a calling card can bring such happiness to folks.

    Thank you!

It’s once again time for my annual survival list column. One does not have to be a prophet to know that we are on the precipice of some potentially catastrophic–or at the very least, challenging–days. In fact, most of us are already in challenging days, and some are already enduring catastrophic events. That is, if one would call being out of work, losing one’s home, facing life-threatening medical conditions without any prospect of medical insurance, several families being forced to live in one house due to homes being foreclosed, etc., catastrophic.

The potential for an escalation of cataclysmic events, however, is very real. Only a “blooming idiot” would call someone who attempts to prepare for “the day of adversity” a Chicken Little now. Anyone who does not see the storm clouds on the horizon isn’t paying attention. read on

For 15 years, from the mid 1970’s to 1990, I worked in Detroit , Michigan .  I watched it descend into the abyss of crime, debauchery, gun play, drugs, school truancy, car-jacking, gangs, and human depravity.  I watched entire city blocks burned out.  I watched graffiti explode on buildings, cars, trucks, buses, and school yards.  Trash everywhere!

“Everything’s perverted in a different way, isn’t it?”—Alfred Hitchcock

Do you ever wonder why some of the greatest performers and directors of all time have never won an Oscar? It certainly has nothing to do with lack of talent. For example, the man considered the greatest director of all time, whose films have affected millions and changed the history of cinema, never received an Academy Award for best director. read on

In 1992 who said: “But the theory of global warming will not be disproved, and the skeptics are vastly outnumbered by former skeptics who now accept the overwhelming weight of accumulated evidence.”

Writing about automobiles, who said, “We now know that their cumulative impact on the global environment is posing a mortal threat to the security of every nation that is more deadly than that of any military enemy we are ever again likely to confront…it ought to be possible to establish a coordinated global program to accomplish the strategic goal of completely eliminating the internal combustion engine over, say, a twenty-five-year period.” read on
