23JUL2021, Action News Now report (note the reporter uses the incorrect word ‘aircrafts’ while the Cal-Fire official uses the correct word ‘aircraft’) on how smoke from fires can actually ground aircraft:
In 1993, Cal-Fire bought 15 ex-Marines OV-10As (with three blade propellers). They replaced the older O-2As. In 2009, Cal-Fire bought three OV-10Ds (with four blade props and short ‘A’ model nose). OV-10As and OV-10Ds are slowly being upgraded to meet Cal-Fire requirements.
2010 Cal-Fire video report, the Gov’na authorizes more of everything for fighting future fires, plus a new GPS flight tracking system will be used:
To aspirate during a vaccination means that after you push the needle in you then pull back on the plunger to see if any blood is present, because that means that you’ve punctured a blood vessel and you should not inject a vaccine into a blood vessel. Doing so is called intravenous vaccination and could cause adverse reaction.
The most common adverse reaction is Myocarditis (swelling of the heart) and Pericarditis (swelling of the outer lining of the heart).

30SEP2021, Doctor John Campbell is shocked that healthcare workers in Australia and United States are still not aspirating the pandemic vaccines! He also questions U.S. CDC guidelines for pandemic vaccines which mention giving infants the vaccines, when none of the vaccines have been emergency authorized for infants! He also questions the use of people who have no medical training to administer vaccines:

Senator Rand Paul, who is a doctor by the way, accuses Health and Human Services (HHS) boss of lying about natural immunity, reveals the HHS boss has “no scientific background”, and yet the HHS boss is making scientific recommendations and statements regarding the pandemic!

For years now, politicians and local business leaders have sworn up-and-down that Idaho’s economy was booming. One of the ‘proofs’ these exalted leaders used was the skyrocketing price of real estate, but those of use working class long term residents knew that was bogus; how can the economy be booming when most working class people are working less hours and making less money? Now it looks like reality is finally pricking the real estate bubble, will it explode or just slowly leak until nothing is left?

The artifact scandal involving Evangelical christian co-owners of Hobby Lobby/Museum of the Bible began in 2009, when those co-owners decided they needed to pack their Museum of the Bible with as many artifacts from Egypt and Iraq as possible. Perhaps unknowingly, they hooked up with artifact dealers who in turn, it turns out, was getting those artifacts from illegal sources, including some sources that used the money to create what is known in the West as Islamic State aka DAIISH (DA for al-DAwla, I for al-Islamiya, I for al-Iraq, SH al-SHam [al-Sham=Syria]): “…antiquities are being actually excavated by groups like DAIISH or ISIS, and knowingly being exported and used as a means of funding for terrorism.”-Deborah Lehr, The Antiquities Coalition
In March2020, Steve Green, the Museum of the Bible’s board chairman and president of Hobby Lobby, tried to claim ignorance saying “I knew little about the world of collecting…”, yet it had already been established in witness statements that consultants, and even Hobby Lobby employees, warned Green years ago that the artifacts were probably illegal because there was no required legal documentation present! Green promised to return 11-thousand-5-hundred artifacts to Iraq and Egypt!
