Plenty of government clowns spreading disinformation, for sure. It's all part of the plan.
You are always so blind to... ... the rest of the story!
I could say, how unamerican of you, but you are Canadian, so I will let it slide.
Until you have lived in the FREEDOM than WE have and seen and experienced the LOSS of those Freedoms that we now have... How in the world do you think YOU can be the Expert poster in this forum to give the truth to the world???
Perhaps those of us who are experiencing it presently would be the best reference??
It is sad my friend, to be a citizen of the current U.S.A.
If you are single and you work and do not go to the bars etc. how would you ever expect to meet someone with similar interests? Especially if he does the same.
The internet is a great way to meet those with common interests.
I may have met my future mate here. We will meet in person for the first time, this Sunday!
I would believe corn to be the most used vegetable in the world as it is not only used for human consumption, but as feed for cattle and other animals and corn is used in making Bio-fuels.
You've titled this thread, "Thought Provoking". Therefore, I have been provoked to think this through. Here is my conclusion:
Practice Makes Perfect...
There is only one who is Perfect... The Creator.
I am reminded of Brother Lawerence. "He was assigned to the monastery kitchen where, amidst the tedious chores of cooking and cleaning at the constant bidding of his superiors, he developed his rule of spirituality and work. In his Maxims, Lawrence writes, "Men invent means and methods of coming at God's love, they learn rules and set up devices to remind them of that love, and it seems like a world of trouble to bring oneself into the consciousness of God's presence. Yet it might be so simple. Is it not quicker and easier just to do our common business wholly for the love of him?"
For Brother Lawrence, "common business," no matter how mundane or routine, could be a medium of God's love. The sacredness or worldly status of a task mattered less than motivation behind it. "Nor is it needful that we should have great things to do. . . We can do little things for God; I turn the cake that is frying on the pan for love of him, and that done, if there is nothing else to call me, I prostrate myself in worship before him, who has given me grace to work; afterwards I rise happier than a king. It is enough for me to pick up but a straw from the ground for the love of God."
Brother Lawrence felt having a proper heart about tasks made every detail of his life possess surpassing value. "I began to live as if there were no one save God and me in the world." Brother Lawrence felt that he cooked meals, ran errands, scrubbed pots, and endured the scorn of the world alongside God. One of his most famous sayings refers to his kitchen:
"The time of business does not with me differ from the time of prayer; and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen, while several persons are at the same time calling for different things, I possess God in as great tranquility as if I were upon my knees at the blessed sacrament.He admitted the path to this union was difficult. He spent years disciplining his heart and mind to yield to God's presence. "As often as I could, I placed myself as a worshiper before him, fixing my mind upon his holy presence, recalling it when I found it wandering from him. This proved to be an exercise frequently painful, yet I persisted through all difficulties." (from Wiki)
God being Perfection. God being Perfect Love. You, being God, being Perfect Love, to ALL, LOVING in ALL you do.
The Practice of the Presence of God... Practice makes Perfect!
Perhaps she knows all this just as I myself know it to be true. We talk to Marss on the phone and online!
Maggie was supposed to come visit Marss in June and now that Trish emailed Maggie and told her that Marss likes her more than Maggie, Maggie is not going to come see Marss.
Maggie asked Marss about it and he did not lie to her. He told her he would rather see Trisher.
Now both women are upset and so is Marss.
So much for drama on CS... As the World Turns!!!
So now, you know... The rest of the story.
As for Marss behavior here and posting this poll... We have seen in the past, with him and freesparow, whom he loves dearly, that he goes off the deep end when he is rejected and he makes a big fool of himself in the forums!!!
But that doesn't make him a bad person. Just a man who is sensitive and needs understanding and some TLC.
The women love him enough that they still keep contact with him, even sparrow, trish and maggie.
Things aren't always as they seem... Perhaps venting here in the forums is a form of therapy?
Marss can read but can not post for a few days, his suspension from CS. Same for Trisher.
Just one question... Is the document REAL??? Expert opinions I have read, say it is NOT.
So, where do we stand? Why would he spend that kind of money to prevent it from being disclosed? It should have been produced immediately if there was no question of it's authenticity.
Hope I am understanding what you have written ghost. It seems you may have left a word out in the last paragraph of your response, which left me to guess which word filled the blank.
Hey, I did not give an opinion of faux news, just asked you to watch greta's interview with Byron York. He says a huge financial collapse will occurr just after the elections.
Obama can then enact Martial Law and remain in power and send folks off to camp FEMA. It will happen, it's just a matter of WHEN. I expect it at any time.
I feel the same as you do, Don. Everyone should publish this message! Just do NOT credit ME for it... I found this on Gretta Van Susteren's blog, an Open Thread, on Gretawire...
I can not find the exact thread for the link to it now, as it was the first time I have been to the website. I am sure daimon1 would not mind us sharing it, as long as we list him/her as the source.
It's nice to have all of these reminders in one place... how quickly we forget what all this man has done to destroy this country!
The contractors very well could be as you have stated. Remember that thread about the prison contractors, an entity of Blackwater, we discussed a couple of years ago? It was in Montana. hmm
Hey, I would not put anything past Monsanto. The government is sleeping with the enemy, only I believe it never sleeps.
If what Byron York says is true, it would be the perfect time to enact such a FEMA scheme, wouldn't it???? Economic collapse? Watch...
The language is specific in that all requirements are performed in the United States. However, the language does not specify that it would be a phased approach or even a localized area that experiences a natural disaster -- simply the entire nation.
In the Task Order Proposal Request, there is a specific requirement for large vehicle parking:
Special Requirements:
- Outsized Vehicle Parking within Security Area (> 2.5 ton vehicles): Estimate required space and add to acreage requirement.
- Outsized vehicle parking outside security area (> 2.5 ton vehicles): Estimate required space and add to acreage requirement.
- Mission Support Work Area(s): Minimum square footage, Accessibility
These requirements suggest that the type of vehicle(s) will be either solely high-occupancy (i.e., buses) or large trucks or heavy equipment combined with buses. The interesting point about this section is that the authors allude to a "Security Area" and an "Unsecured Area" with no specific requirements coming forth.
To sum up: the solicitation to bid for the staffing of FEMA camps within 72 hours is a curious proposition, since it appears to predict a calamity that will affect the entire nation simultaneously --completely unlike a location-specific natural disaster.
This may be nothing more than a preparedness exercise by Homeland Security to see if anyone besides the military would be able to meet these stringent requirements for rapid deployment. However, what I found most striking was the "off limits" areas within each camp and staffing with "displaced persons" and the "Mission Support Work Area(s)," all undefined. As citizens, we need to know the exact purpose of these camps, given President Obama's propensity to bend our constitutional republic to his own purposes!
(All documents can be found at this website for the GSA Federal Business Opportunities.)
This led me to question the stated purpose of these camps, considering that the successful contractor would need to have personnel ready to go on such short notice, with notification from FEMA, Homeland Security, or the president within 72 hours. So the question arises: how could the camp utilize "displaced citizens" in the initial staffing unless the contractor knew where and when a disaster, man-made or otherwise would occur beforehand?
Another anomaly was the requirement that the "off limits" area was to be enclosed before anything else:
The contractor shall also provide fencing and barricades around areas which are "off limits" to occupants. Fencing and barricades are required within 36 hours for "phased" setup timeframes, and 72 hours for the rest of the initial setup timeframe.
Next question: just what is this "off limits" area to be used for, since the bid proposal specified only two (2) classes of occupants of the camp -- temporary or occupant as first responder? Furthermore, it indicates that there may be a camp within the camp, or an area that is to be utilized by another group that is not revealed in the bid solicitation...your guess is as good as mine. Most Americans would not like the ambiguity of this area's function!
Another question arose on the Term of the Contract (F.3), which reads as follows:
The contract shall be effective as of the execution date of the base contract, and shall continue up to five years if all four one-year options are exercised, except that delivery orders placed prior to the expiration date shall remain in full force and effect until deliveries have been completed and payments, therefore, have been made. The final delivery order shall not exceed two years.
The nature of the duration seems to belie a long-term use for these camps, which is also not fitting the transitory nature of natural disasters, with most communities being habitable again after a relatively short period of time. We're talking months, not years.
Under the Principal Place of Performance (F.4), this solicitation implies that all of the areas outlined below must be staffed:
The effort required under this contract shall be performed in the United States. Task Orders will designate the exact locations where services will be provided. The five (5) areas of coverage are broken down as follows:
Area 1: Includes the states of CT, DC, DE, MA, MD, ME, NH, NJ, PA, VT, NY, WV, VA, RI
Area 2: Includes the states of KY, TN, MS, AL, GA, SC, NC, FL
Area 3: Includes the states of CO, IA, IL, IN, KS, MI, MN, MO, MT, ND, NE, OH, SD, UT, WI, WY
Area 4: Includes the states of AR, LA, NM, OK, TX
Area 5: Includes the states of AZ, CA, ID, NV, OR, WA
