Doomsday never came today. So Washington lawmakers kept working at the Capitol in Olympia to finish a two-year state operating budget agreement in Olympia.
"We are on track to get our budget. I think we'll have broad agreement on a lot of it – almost all of it tonight," House Ways and Means chairman Ross Hunter, D-Medina, said early this evening. "We'll probably be fixing some cats and dogs tomorrow."
Hunter didn't elaborate on what fixing cats and dogs meant, but it didn't sound good for the state's sacred cows either.
House and Senate Democrats and Republican negotiators planned to work well into Saturday evening – on a $32 billion two-year operating budget expected to carve into just about every state government program. Some lawmakers also were working on a major overhaul of the state worker compensation program for injured workers.
The House and Senate also were expected back in session Sunday, the House at 10 a.m. and the Senate at 2 p.m.
Progress was reported on both the budget and worker-comp Saturday. Budget writers worked late Friday evening on the budget and a series of talks on workers comp were held on Friday, Saturday morning and late Saturday afternoon (see our print report coming in Sunday’s Olympian and News Tribune papers).
Senate Majority Leader Lisa Brown, D-Spokane, said late Friday that Senate-House differences on K-12 school funding, higher education and health care were closing. Cuts to pay for public school employees, including teachers, and cuts to school district allotments have been on the block along with deep cuts to college funding and health programs for the poor and disabled.
Talks continued on worker compensation reforms, too. The Washington State Labor Council put out a statement today that ripped Gov. Chris Gregoire’s latest compromise package, which proposes to save about $1.25 billion over four years to reduce the worker-comp pension system’s future liabilities.
A key piece of the package is a "structured settlement" that would let permanently injured workers receive portions of their lifetime pensions up front in a series of lump sums. It is a major change in the system.
House Speaker Frank Chopp and labor groups say lump sum payments could take advantage of workers in desperate situations who would take smaller payouts in the short term and end up destitute years later. The Labor Council's statement this morning said in part:
Without some reductions in costs, some businesses face double-digit increases in the premiums they pay into the system, according to the state Department of Labor and Industries, which reports to Gov. Chris Gregoire.
Lawmakers face a deadline of Wednesday, the last day of the 30-day special session, to finish the budget, or it will be Doomsday of a different sort. They'll have to face an even-more-irritated Gregoire, who says she won't call them back to work again until they have a deal ready for a vote.
On the other hand, she's said she won't let them leave town without a deal on workers comp.

The oldest candidate ever elected, the 46th president of the United States turned 80 while in office, making him the only sitting president to do so. He was elected at the age of 78.
For the remainder of his time, Biden’s age is expected to be a topic of discussion, particularly in light of the possibility that he could run for government again in 2024.
Nothing in the U.S. Constitution prohibits someone from running for office because they are too old; Article II only specifies a minimum age of 35.
As Joe Biden turns 80 in office, let’s give a run down of the oldest presidents in the history of the US. According to POTUS.com, presidents are sworn in on average when they are 55 years old. These are the ten presidents who were the oldest when they took office.
First is Joe Biden, who was born on November 20, 1942, became the 46th president of the United States in January 2021, making him the oldest president in American history. People who have questioned how Biden’s age affects presidential performance have sharply criticized him throughout his administration. Biden was 78 when he took the oath of office.
Following closely is Donald Trump who was 70 years and 220 days old when he became the 45th president in January 2017. He was born on June 14, 1946.
Ronald Regan, the 40th president, was sworn in at the age of 69 years, 348 days after his February 6, 1911, birth. Reagan endured surgery to remove a malignant polyp from his big intestine in 1985 after surviving a shooting assassination attempt in 1981 during his first term.
William Henry Harrison, the ninth president, was born on February 9, 1773, making him the oldest president at 68 years and 23 days. Until Ronald Reagan took office as president in 1981, he held that record for 140 years.
Buchanan, James, the 15th President, James Buchanan, also known as “Old Buck,” was 65 years and 315 days old when he took office in 1857. He was born on April 23, 1791.
George H. W. Bush, the 41st president, was 64 years old and 222 days when he assumed office in 1989. He was born on June 12, 1924.
Zachary Taylor, the 12th President and “Old Rough and Ready,” was 64 years and 100 days old when he took office. He served from March 4, 1849, until his death in office on July 9, 1850.
Dwight Eisenhower, who was born on October 14, 1890, took office as the United States’ 34th president in 1953 at the age of 62 years, 98 days.
Andrew Jackson, also referred to as “Old Hickory,” was the seventh president and was 61 years and 354 days old when he assumed office in 1829. He was born on March 15, 1767.
When John Adams, the second president, defeated Thomas Jefferson in the election of 1796, he was 61 years and 125 days old. His birthday is October 30, 1735.

Algonquin Provincial Park is located between Georgian Bay and the Ottawa River in Central Ontario, Canada. Fall is a spectacular time to visit Algonquin Park. During this time the entire park explodes in magnificent fall colors of red and yellow while the dark evergreens, blue skies and sparkling water provide amazing contrast.
The fall colors alone make a trip to Algonquin worthwhile, especially if you catch the spectacular colors of the Sugar and Red Maples from mid-September to mid-October. While hard to determine the exact peak of fall color, it is typically the last week of September or the first week of October. A couple of weeks later, the aspens, Tamaracks, and Red Oaks hit their best and put on another interesting show before giving way to a more subdued November.

Algonquin Park is Ontario’s oldest and largest provincial park. The park was formed in 1893 with the purpose to serve as a timber reserve designed to keep forest-clearing settlers out of valuable timber lands. Preservation was only a secondary purpose. In 1896, lumber baron J.R. Booth completed the Ottawa, Arnpriror & Parry Sound railway (OA & PS) through the southern portion of the park. Though designed to haul timber logs out of the park, it allowed the vast expanse of Algonquin to be opened up for tourism. Highway 60 was completed in 1933, further opening the Park to visitors. The railway was abandoned in 1947 and logging is now a tertiary purpose of the park.
Covering approximately 8000 square kilometers of rugged Canadian Shield country, the park is home to an abundant wildlife population, including moose, wolves and black bears. Smaller mammals like otters, fox, chipmunks, squirrels and raccoons are common sights. Over 250 bird species have been recorded in Algonquin Park and everyone’s favorite wilderness bird, the common loon, is found nesting on most lakes. Over 2,400 lakes and 1,500 kilometers of canoe routes are located within the park.
There are only a few ways to get into Algonquin Park. The most obvious is by vehicle, via Highway 60 corridor. There are numerous places where you can leave your car while you enjoy either Algonquin's back country or the Highway 60 corridor. Campsites and portages are marked and well maintained. Algonquin can also be accessed by canoe, from various access points around the park. In fact, with motor boats restricted to a few lakes and road access to the park is limited to the Highway 60 corridor, most of Algonquin Park is only accessible by canoe. Backpacking and day hiking trails allow travel on foot. In the winter the park is also open to travel by ski and snowshoe.
If you plan to visit Algonquin Provincial Park during autumn, you can check the Fall Color Report at Algonquin Park website where park officials provides the up-to-date information.

Equitable supply chains support small-scale farmers worldwide
Dr. Bronner’s has created or partnered with fair trade and organic projects all over the world: in Ghana for cocoa and palm oil, Sri Lanka and Samoa for coconut oil, Palestine and Israel for olive oil, India for mint oil, Ecuador for palm kernel oil, Indonesia for coconut sugar, and Brazil for cane sugar. An estimated 10,000 people around the world benefit directly from our fair trade projects, and we are supporting the development of domestic fair trade programs here in North America as well.

Cocoa – Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire
Serendipalm – cocoa smallholder farms in Ghana
KANY Women’s Cooperative – cocoa smallholder farms in Côte d’Ivoire
The cocoa in Dr. Bronner’s Magic All-One Chocolate is produced by several organic and fair trade certified cocoa projects in Africa. When we learned that many of the 800 farmers in Ghana at our sister company Serendipalm also grow cocoa, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to create a line of chocolate that benefits farmers, the planet, and consumers.
Serendipalm is a Regenerative Organic Certified™ project that demonstrates and expands the use of mixed dynamic agroforestry (DAF) and cocoa crop maintenance to improve soil fertility and crop yields. Our work also aims to improve the livelihoods of farmers and the level of food security in their communities. Dr. Bronner’s has contributed over $1 million to support hundreds of self-directed community projects resulting from the 10% fair trade premium that Dr. Bronner’s and, ultimately, our customers pay for fair trade raw materials.
In keeping with the same goals and methods, we also began to work with KANY, an organic and fair trade women’s cooperative in Côte d’Ivoire that consists of ~160 farmers. KANY is a project initiated by women for women, with only women as farmer members. In Côte d’Ivoire, women perform about 70% of the work on cocoa farms, but only receive around 20% of the income. KANY’s unique structure allows women to profit from membership even if they are not owners of the land. Its objective is to promote transparency, regenerative organic agriculture, agroecology, and agroforestry; and empower women through opportunities to improve their income and through collaboration. Thanks to purchases by Dr. Bronner’s and other committed buyers, it will grow to ~500 farmers in the coming years.
The chocolate trade has a well-documented history of causing social and environmental harm. The true cost of chocolate production has been externalized: only a few profit at the expense of many. That cost is paid primarily by cocoa-producing communities, and has led to widespread ecological destruction, climate instability, poverty, worker exploitation, child labor, and even slavery. Unless we address the root causes of poor farming practices and the extensive use of pesticides—which result in low cocoa yields and low incomes for farmers and workers—then labor exploitation and environmental destruction will only persist. Tackling these issues is at the foundation of Dr. Bronner’s approach. We aim to fulfill chocolate’s promise as an expression of love and seek to elevate it into the pure indulgence it is meant to be.
Coconut Sugar – Indonesia
Aliet Green – woman-owned organic coconut sugar company
The coconut sugar used in Dr. Bronner’s Magic All-One Chocolate is sourced from Aliet Green, an award-winning woman-owned business in Indonesia. Aliet Green’s coconut sugar was the first worldwide to become certified organic and fair trade.
Aliet Green, initiated in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, uses coconut sugar production to benefit the local farmers, community, and environment. It’s founder, Lastiana Yuliandari, started the mission-driven company as an undergraduate student when she recognized an unmet demand for high-quality farmed products grown with regenerative organic practices.
As a Women Social Enterprise, the company integrates gender equality into the company’s agricultural and factory employment practices. Aliet Green has received numerous awards including the United Nations Food System Summit as 1 of 50 winners for Best Small Business.
Aliet Green’s mission aligns perfectly with Dr. Bronner’s objective to address the ecological and social issues that afflict the chocolate industry by modeling more sustainable practices in the sourcing and production of Dr. Bronner’s Magic All-One Chocolate.
Coconut Oil – Sri Lanka
Serendipol – the world’s foremost source of fair trade organic coconut oil
Serendipol’s Regenerative Organic Certified Coconut Oil project was inspired by Dr. Bronner’s involvement in helping to rebuild cottage industries in the aftermath of the devastating tsunami of 2004. Serendipol started in 2007 with an overgrown, abandoned coconut mill, two shipping containers as office space and the determination of our Sri Lankan partners and a few experienced and highly motivated friends. In those early years, many—including would-be farmers and employees—considered the project to be somewhat of a “fly-by-night operation.”
Eleven years later, Serendipol works with more than 1,200 farmers farming 20,000 acres, employs 250 workers and professional staff and processes up to 30 million coconuts a year. Workers in Serendipol’s plant enjoy working conditions and compensation uncommon in the industry, with opportunities for personal and professional development, and a respectful, participatory management style that increasingly attracts professionals in accounting, engineering, agricultural services, and administration who want to contribute to responsible rural development in the Kuliyapitiya area.
Serendipol’s factory also showcases the potential of a great renewable resource, the coconut palm. All byproducts have value-added uses: the coconut husks are sold and then processed into fiber for rope, doormats, and erosion control; the shells are burned for energy in our boiler or sold to produce charcoal and activated carbon; the seed cake is sold for animal feed and food; some of the coconut water is sold to a local exporter; and the balance is treated biologically and used for irrigation in the company’s garden. Other than common packaging waste, the factory leaves no waste behind. From its inception, Serendipol represented the idea that organic agriculture is about more than just “not using agrochemicals”. Farmers receive training, technical and financial support in improving soil fertility by applying compost, growing and regularly mowing cover crops, replanting old trees, returning leaves and branches as mulch, and intercropping with other tree species. They often have a few farm or work animals to support the subsistence of their families, which along with neighboring cows may carefully graze on the land, controlling weeds while depositing manure.
The fair trade premium paid by Dr. Bronner’s and other customers has funded now close to 1,000 fair trade projects small and large, selected by a fair trade committee including farmers, workers and management. Projects include the initial subsidy of compost production, supplying critical medical equipment for rural clinics, school renovation and vocational training for disadvantaged adolescents, grants to workers for improvements to their homes, restoration of water reservoirs overgrown by invasive plants (plant waste used in compost), and vital infrastructure like bridges, road and electricity to connect rural villages. Support to numerous local community groups is another focus of Serendipol’s fair trade work. To date, Serendipol has spent around 1.8 million dollars on fair trade projects. The company’s pragmatic, comprehensive and effective fair trade program is exemplary in demonstrating the potential of the fair trade premium—if managed with vision and care.

Coconut Oil – Samoa
SerendiCoco Samoa – a joint venture to revive the Samoan coconut industry
By the 1990s the once thriving coconut industry in Western Samoa had lost its competitiveness. Today, much of the domestic coconut crop simply goes uncollected. Under the name of SerendiCoco Samoa we formed, in 2016, a joint venture with an experienced Samoan producer of conventional coconut copra oil (copra refers to coconuts that have been broken up and dried in the field, using traditional kilns). The joint venture supports farmers in their conversion to organic practices and the first 1,000 small farmers achieved organic status in 2017. Since SerendiCoco Samoa has raised the price paid for organic copra, interest among farmers and dryers of copra is high and copra supplies took off swiftly. Following installation of a small physical refinery, SerendiCoco Samoa now produces and ships fair trade and organic coconut copra oil. Considering Samoa’s small population of about 150,000 and its dependence on remittances from relatives living abroad, the project has the potential to shift much of the domestic coconut production to fair trade & organic principles—and to have a significant beneficial impact on the country’s economy.
A key challenge is the old age and decreasing productivity of Samoa’s coconut stock. Since 2016, SerendiCoco Samoa has been working with government agencies, international donors and agroforestry experts to design a replanting scheme based on the concept of “dynamic agroforestry”—mixed groves of coconuts, cocoa, fruit and timber trees. This increases productivity and biodiversity of the land, improves soil resilience to drought and erosion, improves food security and helps rebuild two former major export industries: coconut oil and cocoa. It also helps sequester atmospheric carbon and improve soil organic matter at high rates. This ambitious program may eventually cover and “regenerate” much of the country’s land suitable for coconut farming. Some of it will include pure coconut stands where cattle graze. Finally, projects funded through the fair trade premium will address educational and health care issues in the often remote villages, with a focus on youth employment.
Palm Oil – GhanaFruit cleaners at Serendipalm (photo courtesy of Rapunzel Naturkost)
Serendipalm – sustainable palm oil from smallholder farms in Ghana
Palm oil is a primary ingredient in Dr. Bronner’s bar soaps. It gives our bars their hardness, and balances the lathering power of coconut oil while keeping the soap from softening and dissolving too quickly. With rapid expansion of oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia causing large-scale environmental degradation and social deprivation, it was imperative that we find a source for palm oil that did not cause new deforestation, endanger crucial habitats or impoverish communities.
We began our search for a sustainable and socially responsible source of palm oil in 2006. With support from the NGO Fearless Planet, we found partners in Ghana’s rural Eastern Region near Asuom. Serendipalm, our Ghanaian sister company, built a small-scale palm oil mill using traditional processes, but with better facilities and more efficient, safer equipment. We then began recruiting local smallholder farmers for conversion to organic practices.
Since the mill began production in 2008, Serendipalm has become the world’s most respected fair trade and organic palm oil project. It works exclusively with smallholder farmers and is the largest local employer in an area that has traditionally provided few reliable jobs. The 200+ workers in Serendipalm’s oil mill, primarily local unskilled women, enjoy working conditions and compensation unheard of in other small palm oil mills. Serendipalm also has attracted some 20 professional staff to Asuom—agricultural engineers, scientists, accounting and administration professionals who appreciate the company’s participatory style of management and its beneficial social impact. They have chosen to live in the countryside, where they can earn a living while making a difference—and many of them have put down roots in the area, starting families and raising children.
Serendipalm buys palm fruits from over 635 family farms with oil palm plots averaging seven acres in size. Farmers are paid fair prices plus an organic premium for their palm fruits, provided with biomass for mulching, training on organic agriculture to improve soil fertility and profitability, and offered interest-free loans for more productive oil palm seedlings. Many of Serendipalm’s oil palm growers also farm cocoa, and had a desire to move away from the extensive use of pesticides which is common in Ghanaian cocoa production—so we began converting them to organic practices and in 2018 will sell our first organic and fair trade cocoa.
In late 2016 we also began implementing dynamic agroforestry concepts, which consist of planned mixed stands of multi-strata tree plantings. Dynamic Agroforestry offers farmers a much higher yield and revenue per acre, higher biodiversity and thus lower pest pressure, as well as the potential for sequestering high amounts of atmospheric CO2. The concepts are being implemented initially on our own two small farming plots, and will be expanded to Serendipalm farmers and across Ghana in the coming years.
The fair trade premiums paid by Dr. Bronner’s and other customers have been used for a range of community development projects: water systems, public toilet facilities, a maternity ward and nurses’ quarters, a pedestrian bridge, lighting, school supplies, mosquito nets to protect against malaria, and “green islands”— the planting of trees in the villages that surround Serendipalm. Since our staff now have about 100 children and grandchildren, we are building a Montessori preschool which will be part of the campus of the “Regenerative Learning Center of Ghana,” an NGO founded by Serendipalm and Dr. Bronner’s and aimed at helping people, land and their communities redevelop.
Serendipalm now supplies fair trade and organic palm oil to Dr. Bronner’s, as well as several European fair trade companies, such as GEPA and Rapunzel. With growing demand for our palm oil, cocoa, and dynamic agroforestry practices we are expanding operations—to the benefit of farmers, workers, and the local community.
Olive Oil – Palestine and Israel
Olive Oil from the Holy Land
In honor of our Jewish ancestry and our commitment to promoting peaceful coexistence, our olive oil comes from the Holy Land, supplied by farmers in both Palestine and Israel. Organic olive oil is what provides the velvety smoothness in Dr. Bronner’s Pure-Castile Soaps.
In late 2006, we began sourcing 90% of our olive oil from Canaan, a company founded by Palestinians near the West Bank town of Jenin. Their objective was to improve the economic situation of olive farmers in the West Bank through fair trade with customers in the West, while promoting peaceful coexistence with Israel. Canaan works closely with the Palestine Fair Trade Association (PFTA) and now purchases oil from 1,700 smallholder members. Dr. Bronner’s helped Canaan plan for and fund the project’s organic and fair trade certification to the Fair for Life Programme. This boosted the project’s visibility and provided access to high-end markets in Europe and the U.S.
In the past, the export of Palestine’s high-quality olive oil had been virtually impossible due to their landlocked situation and competition with subsidized and freely-traded oil from Mediterranean countries. But now, PFTA growers are guaranteed a minimum price to cover costs of production, and receive a combined organic and fair trade premium of 25%. Canaan donates additional funds for education, tree planting, and logistics projects.
Since 2009, the trading relationship with Dr. Bronner’s and other buyers has helped Canaan expand and become a symbol of hope for sustainable and fair economic development for olive farmers and their communities. The company also produces and exports other traditional Palestinian foods, such as couscous and dried tomatoes, all of which allow Palestinian growers to trade directly with expanding, high-value markets for organic and fair trade materials while redeveloping their traditional livelihoods.
Since 2014, Canaan has significantly expanded the range of organic and regenerative organic practices used by its farmers. It cooperates with the Canaan Center for Research and Extension (CORE) in the development of non-toxic pest control techniques for almonds, the intercropping of olive trees with bushes, trees and legume field crops. It also supports those traditional farmers whose practices in intercropping and cover cropping are naturally regenerative, and who serve as model farmers. The model farmer program includes practices of conservation tillage and the integration of sheep and goats into the field. Also, through CORE, Canaan is studying the local ecosystem and farmer practices, to learn how they allow olive trees that are over 2,000 years old to continue being productive.
The balance of our olive oil (10%) comes from Israel. Sindyanna, a fair trade business run by Jewish and Arab women in Israel, supports Arab-Israeli farmers and workers. In light of the vision of peace that the olive branch symbolizes, we are also sourcing olive oil from the Jewish-Israeli Strauss family farm in Israel, a pioneer in organic olive oil production.
Mint Oil – India
Pavitramenthe: putting regenerative organic farming into practice
Mint oils are our most used essential oils—their cooling properties are what make our peppermint soaps and All-One Toothpastes so refreshing, and they give our peppermint soap its famous tingle!
Dr. Bronner’s uses a blend of oils from two mint species, peppermint (mentha piperita) and corn mint (mentha arvensis). Since 2004, both species were grown for us at smallholder projects in India’s Uttar Pradesh state, some 250 miles east of Delhi. The original project was operated by our partner company Earthoil in the UK, followed in 2013 by our sister company Serendimenthe. When we became aware of financial irregularities in 2015, however, we decided to close the company and to offer four of our staff—gifted, motivated and reliable agricultural engineers—an opportunity to build their own company.
The project now involves over 1,200 smallholder farmers who have been converting their farms to organic practices and certification. Their small fields, typically less than 2 acres, are farmed in rotation, using 2 or 3 different crops every year. Through decades of intensive cultivation, including use of chemical fertilizers and frequent plowing, the silty/loamy soil has been depleted and contains little organic matter (humus). In order to help farmers rebuild their soils and make the latter more productive and resilient, Dr. Bronner’s initiated a comprehensive “soil regeneration” project in 2017. With financial support from the German aid agency GIZ, we purchased a compost turner that will eventually produce some 10,000 metric tons of compost from a range of agricultural waste products. Compost will be sold to farmers at a subsidy, supported by the sale of carbon credits. Farmers will also be supported through training, hardware and seed supplies, with the shift to conservation tillage, and the planting of cover crops and nitrogen fixing leguminous rotations crops, such as beans and lentils, for sale in the EU. A large-scale planting program for fruit trees, shade trees and other beneficial trees, such as neem, a source of natural pesticide, is also underway.
Since its formation in 2015, the project has also made great strides in community development. In addition to agricultural projects, such as vermicompost pits, Pavitramenthe has facilitated and funded medical camps, the construction of home toilets and the distribution of water coolers for drinking water. These projects were paid for by the fair trade premium received from Dr. Bronner’s, the project’s primary buyer of organic mint oil. Another project targets development of skills and income opportunities for women. Many women in Bareilly and its surrounding communities make sarees for the domestic and international marketplace. The project has been working with women artisans to improve their working conditions through better tools and lighting. This kind of skills development, along with an extensive capacity-building program for farmers to teach regenerative organic techniques, is a key element in the overall regenerative program funded by GIZ.
Sugar – Brazil
Native Green Cane: A regenerative way to grow sugar cane!
Organic fair trade sugar gives our organic pump soaps a rich caramel color and sweet scent, and keeps skin nourished, hydrated, and smooth. We source our sugar from the Native Green Cane Project in Brazil, one of the largest sustainable agricultural projects in the world.
In adherence with strict organic standards, the sugar cane fields are green cut and are not burned or treated with herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. Native provides safe work conditions and healthcare assistance to its employees, while paying growers a fair price for their crops.

I made my ear “fins” from floral wire and tulle, and meticulously hand sewed sequins. I wore a nude tank top and pinned my hand sewn shells on. Then I sewed a fin, using a skirt as a pattern, and added tulle fins (again, meticulously hand sequined.) I was covered in glitter and blue and green makeup, and found that delightfully tacky wig at Goodwill. Don’t worry – it was new and unused!

As bizarre and surreal as this story may seem, it’s oddly typical of the attitude on the left here in America and across the world,
On the evening of Nov. 26, the biggest names in Bollywood walked the red carpet at the Bombay premiere of “The President Is Coming,” a comedy about six 20-somethings vying to win the right to shake hands with President Bush.
Among those in attendance at the star-studded premiere Wednesday evening was Bollywood’s “new heartthrob” Imran Khan, who proudly posed for paparazzi donning a T-shirt with Mr. Bush’s face sandwiched between the words “International Terrorist.”
Mr. Khan – a member of India’s Muslim minority – chose not to mock international terrorists who kill in the name of Allah. He and his co-religionists know the deadly results for those who do.
At the precise moment Mr. Khan and hundreds of others making their fortunes in the multibillion-dollar Indian movie business were watching “The President Is Coming,” only a few blocks away, 10 20-something Muslim extremists began a horrific three-day terror spree.
…Mr. Khan’s uncle Aamir Khan, another prominent Bollywood actor, director and film producer, also sought to redirect responsibility for the monstrous violence.
“I dread to think of how various political parties are now going to try and use this tragedy to further their political careers. At least now they should learn to not divide people and instead become responsible leaders,” the elder Mr. Khan blogged. “When will these politicians realize and admit that terrorists have no religion. Terrorists are not Hindu or Muslim or Christian. They are not people of religion or God. They are people who have gone totally sick in their head and have to be dealt with in that manner.”
Despite the fact that the terrorists keep telling people over and over again that they’re Muslims who are killing people in the name of Allah, the left has to pretend that they’re crazy and that the hundreds of millions of Muslims who support them don’t exist. The implications of actually acknowledging that to a significant percentage of Muslims, Islam is a murderous death cult, not a “religion of peace,” are just too scary and overwhelming for people.
So instead, they’d rather pretend that people actually trying to stop the terrorists are the problem. Whatever his flaws may be, Bush liberated 50 million Muslims, was responsible for the deaths of countless terrorists, and struck more blows at the terrorist networks than the rest of the planet combined — but, he has to be an “international terrorist” because it’s easier than facing up to reality.
Yes, there are a lot of Muslims who want to kill us — whether the “we” in question are Americans, Israelis, Westerners, Indians, or just Muslims who want freedom and democracy for their families. Worse yet, these Muslims that want to kill us? We have no reliable way of telling them apart from the “moderate” Muslims who are no threat — and those moderate Muslims? Generally, either because they are sympathetic to the terrorists, intimidated by them, and just aren’t inclined to speak up, they are much more likely to oppose the people who are fighting terrorists than the terrorists themselves.
Combine that with a world where weapons of mass destruction seem to be spreading and much of the Western world is so handcuffed by political correctness that they’d literally prefer to die by the thousands than risk seeming rude and you have the recipe for a potential cataclysm.
That’s why it’s easier for a lot of people to just wear their Bush is an “international terrorist” shirt and not think too much about it.
Hat tip to Gateway Pundit for the story.

What is a Pneumatic Elevator?
A pneumatic elevator, sometimes referred to as a vacuum elevator or an air-driven elevator, is a kind of home elevator or small-scale elevator that moves the elevator using air pressure differentials. Vacuum elevators, in contrast to conventional elevators, rely on a pneumatic vacuum elevator system for vertical transportation rather than cables, pulleys or hydraulic systems.
How Does a Pneumatic Elevator Work?
- Design: A cylindrical, transparent elevator that moves inside a vertical shaft makes up a pneumatic elevator. Typically composed of glass or other transparent materials, the automobile offers a 360-degree view as it travels.
- Air Pressure System: The affordable home elevators system consists of an air valve underneath an elevator and a vacuum pump at the top of the shaft. These parts produce a pressure difference, which causes movement.
- Ascending: How Does a Pneumatic Elevator Work? The air valve at the top of the shaft opens when a passenger enters the elevator and selects the appropriate floor, causing air to be quickly ejected from the system. This lowers the pressure in the area above the automobile.
- Descending: The air valve closes and the vacuum pump starts working as the automobile descends, increasing the pressure above it. The elevator is pushed downward by this pressure, enabling a controlled descent.
- Safety Features: Safety measures on pneumatic elevators frequently include emergency stop buttons, sensors to avoid obstacles, and mechanical locks to lock the car at each floor.
Because of their distinctive appearance, small footprint, and quiet operation, pneumatic elevators are well-known. They have a number of benefits, such as simple installation without the need for a separate machine room, minimal building requirements, and increased energy efficiency over conventional elevators. Their translucent car design additionally offers a visually pleasing and airy feeling when traveling.
It’s important to remember, though, that pneumatic elevators have some restrictions. In comparison to other elevator types, they often have lesser weight capacities, making them potentially unsuitable for heavy-duty or commercial applications. Furthermore, as they depend on air pressure differences, their performance may be impacted by sudden changes in atmospheric pressure or strong winds.
Pneumatic elevators offer an attractive and space-saving alternative to conventional elevator systems for residential or small-scale vertical transportation.
How Safe are pneumatic elevators?
The usage of pneumatic elevators, commonly referred to as vacuum elevators, is typically regarded as safe. It’s crucial to remember that safety might vary depending on a number of elements, including the design, setup, and upkeep of the particular elevator model.
Pneumatic elevator safety is impacted by the following factors:
- Design and Construction: Pneumatic elevators are built to resist the necessary loads and forces since they are designed to adhere to strict safety requirements and regulations. The safety of the elevator is greatly influenced by the building materials and engineering methods utilized.
- Safety Features: Passengers are protected by safety features in pneumatic elevators. Emergency stop buttons, lock mechanisms, and sensors that identify obstacles or issues are frequently included in these features. Some types incorporate backup devices to safely lower the elevator in the event of a power outage.
- Maintenance and Inspections: Pneumatic elevators must be maintained and inspected frequently to remain safe. Following the manufacturer’s suggested maintenance schedule is crucial for building owners or facility managers, as is hiring qualified personnel to carry out inspections and any repairs.
- User Responsibilities: Users of pneumatic elevators should be cautious and adhere to safety precautions. This entails preventing the elevator from becoming overloaded, keeping body parts away from the airlock, and refraining from attempting to leave the elevator in case of an emergency or breakdown.
It’s important to remember that pneumatic elevators occasionally encounter breakdowns or malfunctions, just like any mechanical device. However, the chance of mishaps or injuries can be reduced with correct installation, routine maintenance, and adherence to safety recommendations.
It is advised to speak with a knowledgeable home lifts or home elevators specialist or get in touch with the manufacturer if you have questions about the safety of a particular pneumatic elevator.

There were so many cats at the site! Maybe local cats having a wonder? We saw different breeds on both days we visited it was very nice. The site was very clean and quiet. Respectful and able to sit and reflect on what happened here. So very important for the community.

Austin police officer Christopher Taylor will be tried again for murder in September
Austin police officer Christopher Taylor will head back to court next year.
Taylor was charged with murder in the 2020 shooting death of Mike Ramos, which sparked racial justice protests, but a jury could not reach a verdict in the case.
It's unclear whether Travis County District Attorney José Garza's office will pursue the Ramos case again or another murder charge stemming from Taylor's on-duty shooting of Mauris DeSilva, a man who was wielding a knife during a mental health crisis in 2019.
Judge Dayna Blazey set a May pretrial hearing date, with a jury trial set for Sept. 23.
Taylor was indicted on both charges in 2021, but the DA decided to try the Ramos case first.
During that trial, Judge Blazey barred prosecutors from mentioning the DeSilva case, finding it would prejudge the jury. After 12 days of arguments and four days of deliberation, jurors couldn't reach a verdict.
The mistrial was a setback for Garza, who campaigned in 2020 on prosecuting police misconduct. He is continuing to run on that platform heading into 2024, when he's up for re-election.
The Combined Law Enforcement Association of Texas, a statewide police union, is paying for Taylor's representation. After the mistrial it said it would pay his legal fees "as long as it takes to clear his name."

text: 1914 marked the Major League debut of Babe Ruth and the completion of the Panama Canal. But for film lovers, 1914 may be best remembered as the year we were given the gift of feature length comedy. Entering territory previously reserved only for epics, Charlie Chaplin gave comedy its first six-reel treatment, and we’ve been laughing it up ever since. In one of his last roles before disappearing into his iconic Little Tramp persona, Chaplin plays a morally bankrupt con artist who dupes a country girl into marriage in order to steal her money. With the legendary Mack Sennett behind the lens, you can count on oodles of classic Keystone gags and pratfalls in this hilarious slapstick sendup of gold diggers. Also starring Marie Dressler and Mabel Normand.

Don't Be Fooled by the Frocks She Got: Jennifer Lopez has the same agonizing reaction as everyone else upon being aurally assaulted by her steaming cow patty of a new single, "Louboutins." If only her singing were the only thing out of tune. With so many people struggling to make ends meet, did J.Lo honestly think an ode to expensive shoes would be the on-ramp back to relevancy (butt-bouncing AMAs fall or no)? She's 40, and she's a mom. She was one-half of Bennifer, for crying out loud. And yet with all that rich, pink diamond-studded life experience to mine, she just wants to bleat about luxury footwear. Not surprisingly, her staggering lack of awareness carries over to her outfit. Lopez pairs her spray-painted leggings with -- what else? -- Louboutin lace and leopard-print booties. The price: a bracing $1,795, a sum that would, rocks or not, have Jenny from the block fainting from sticker shock ('cause she's "grounded" and "real," yo). But Jennifer apparently isn't getting the same thrill she once did from her self-indulgent stilettos. To recapture the rush of styling something exciting and over-the-top, she's now mugging schoolgirls for their party dresses, because nothing says rare and exclusive like a tear-stained ruffled frock around one's torso.
