2016 Chubbuck Days mass baptism by Fire….Truck!

13 August 2016 /19:35 UTC-07 Tango 01 (24 Mordad 1395/10 Dhu I-Qa’da 1437/12 Bing-Shen 4714)

Some long time attendees of the annual Chubbuck Days at Cotant Park were wondering where the Chubbuck Fire Department was, after all it’s tradition for the Fire Department to cool down the crowd with some artificial rain.  Just like the cavalry, the Fire Department showed up at the last minute, to the excitement of all the children present (click the pics to make bigger, photos by AAron B.

CHUBBUCK DAYS COTANT PARK 2016:  CAR SHOW & HELICOPTER FORCED LANDING

Car show & Helicopter forced landing: Chubbuck Days Cotant Park 2016

The highlight at Cotant Park was when the helicopter ride force landed, twice, and looking very much like it would crash into neighboring Chase Park playground, due to passenger overloading.  However, the main attraction had arrived and most people were thus busy getting baptized by the Chubbuck Fire Department, so they missed the ‘copter excitement.   (I try not to include repeat offenders, I mean cars that were in previous Chubbuck Days), Clicks the pics to make bigger, photos by AAron B.

Saudi Arabia kills $5-million for Pocatello! Death blow for Idaho State University?

12 August 2016 (15:03 UTC-07 Tango 01) 22 Mordad 1395/08 Dhu I-Qa’da 1437/10 Bing-Shen 4714

I warned back in February that Kuwait and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) were going to cancel their funding for their students attending cash strapped Idaho State University (ISU).  Back then it was due to falling oil prices, but then Arab students began reporting increased cases of harassment and discrimination by Idahoans (a couple months ago at least 50 Arab ‘students’ reported their residences being burglarized).  By June Kuwait and KSA suspended scholarships for their 1-thousand 2-hundred students at ISU. 

The 1,200 Kuwaiti & Saudi students made up about 90% of the foeriegn students at ISU, going by this ISU generated graph

At the beginning of August administrators at the Pocatello based university revealed that the loss of the Arab students will cause ISU to lose $5-million USD for the 2016-17 school year!  Coupled with ongoing ‘domestic’ student exodus ISU will start the new school year with less than 9-thousand 5-hundred students.

The local news media are being careful not to bring religion into their reporting of this issue, but I guarantee you the average ‘christian’ Idahoan says it’s totally about the foreign students being ‘muslims’ from the biggest sponsor of terrorism (U.S. ALLY SAUDI ARABIA, NOT IRAN, IS THE MAIN SPONSOR OF “ISLAMIC EXTREMIST TERRORISM”!).

But this exodus of students (both foreign and domestic) is being downplayed, maybe even covered up by the failing University.  A July article in the Idaho State Journal revelaed that the actual crash in enrollment is about 56%!  Not the 38% reported by administrators.  Apparently administrators were doubling up on students known as ‘dual enrollment’ (one student that on paper is enrolled twice).

The National Association of Foreign Student Advisers (NAFSA: Association of International Educators) economic analysis shows the struggling Gem State made $110-million in tuition/fees and living expenses from foreign college students during the 2013-14 school year!  NAFSA says 882 jobs were created as well.

A few months ago ISU announced that for Idahoans who want to attend they can now get a four year “tuition lock”, but this week a local TV news program stated that when they spoke to ISU students the overwheming response was that the cost of education needs to drop, not be ‘locked in’.

RECORD NUMBER OF FOREIGNERS ATTEND IDAHO STATE! IT CAN’T STOP THE ENROLLMENT BLOODLETTING!

Food Crisis Canada: Alberta farms destroyed by massive hail storms!

“And the storms just keep on coming, Mother Nature is your best friend or your worst enemy.”-Nikki Booth, Agriculture Financial Services Corporation

Lack of rain or massive hail storms, some that also hit parts of the United States, wiped out many of Canada’s Alberta farms!  As of 01 August 2016, 7-thousand and three insurance claims have been filed, only about half are currently being examined by insurance adjusters.  As many as 3-hundred farms were hit by crop destroying weather right before harvest.

It’s expected that insurance payouts for hail or rain damage will exceed the 2012 record payout of $450-million CAD, however that still doesn’t beat the insurance payouts for crops killed by drought.  In 2015 almost $1-billion CAD was paid for drought damage!

In neighboring Saskatchewan hail damage insurance claims are up by 60%!  The province of Manitoba also reporting “significantly higher than average” insurance claims.

USAF admits Reserve Airmen not getting paid!

10 August 2016 /21:12 UTC-07 Tango 01 (21 Mordad 1395/07 Dhu I-Qa’da 1437/09 Bing-Shen 4714)

The U.S. Air Force has round-a-boutly admitted that Reserve unit personnel are not getting paid for travel expenses.  The revelation was made as the USAF boasted about a new voucher program that has significantly increased payouts.

The new program is being tested at Dover AFB in Delaware, by the 512th Airlift Wing.  According to the 512th Financial Management office, in August 2015 there were 113 Airmen who were owned money for travel expenses (this is just for Reserve Airmen who drill at Dover).  Under the new system that’s been dropped to 27 in July.

The new system has been so succesfull that Technical Sergeant Nathan Rivard wrote “Since August 2015, the office has seen a drastic increase in the amount of travel vouchers. The FM team of three has pushed through an average of 500 travel vouchers a month and regularly reviews approximately 650 vouchers a month….”

Remember, this new system is only being tested at one AFB. Who knows how many Reservists at other U.S. Air Force bases aren’t getting paid?  Of course senior level personnel have been accusing lower level personnel of not properly submitting payout requests, although finance managers admitted that it was a complicated process.

China & Mexico join forces! Form anti-GMO anti-Monsanto alliance!

10 August 2016 /20:35 UTC-07 Tango 01 (21 Mordad 1395/07 Dhu I-Qa’da 1437/09 Bing-Shen 4714)

Chinese Vice Premier Liu Yandong paid a visit to Mexico, vowing to boost economic relations.  In 2013 China and Mexico declared a ‘strategic’ partnership.

Chinese state news media said China and Mexico will “boost their cooperation in industrial investment, infrastructure, telecommunications, energy and innovation and increase their exchanges in education, culture, sports and tourism”.

Chinese Vice Premier Liu Yandong also signed a memorandum of understanding with the anti-GMO/anti-Monsanto International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center in Texcoco.

Next year Mexico will host the Year of Chinese Culture. Mexico has also established five Confucius Institutes claiming to have 30-thousand students.  And all that while fighting a U.S. instigated drugs war!

Without warning Subaru dumps Suzuki!

10 August 2016 /19:37 UTC-07 Tango 01 (21 Mordad 1395/07 Dhu I-Qa’da 1437/09 Bing-Shen 4714)

In a surprise move Fuji Industries (known in the United States as Subaru) dumped all their shares of Suzuki stock!

Fuji dumped its Suzuki shares for about $182-million USD, making a profit.  Suzuki also stated it was about to dump its shares of Fuji.  In Japan companies conduct ‘cross-shareholding’, but critics say such cross-shareholding creates artifical conditions on the stockmarkets, and reduces corporate accountability (sounds like the unAmerican corporate America).

The neo-imperialist prime minister of Japan, Abe Shinzo, has been pushing Japanese corporations to halt cross-shareholding.

3rd self-drive crash for Tesla!

10 August 2016 /19:07 UTC-07 Tango 01 (21 Mordad 1395/07 Dhu I-Qa’da 1437/09 Bing-Shen 4714)

For at least the third time a Tesla being operated on autopilot crashed, this time it was in China, and this time the driver lived.

The self-drive ‘Autosteer’ crash happened in Bejing, last week.  For some reason the Tesla sideswiped a car that pulled off the road.  Arrogant Tesla apparently blames the driver for not having his hands on the streering wheel.  However, the real reason for the crash is that the Autosteer did not identify the car on the side of the road.

Reuters reports that many people in China, including the driver involved in the latest crash, say Tesla sales staff are telling potential customers that the Autosteer is no longer experimental and is fully autonomous!

The main reason people who want an autopilot is so they can take their hands off the steering wheel, because they don’t really like driving a car!
