This is not fake, this is real news, folks and the warning signs have been ignored for too long.

A year ago, American journalist and political commentator Bill Moyers warned US. He was White House Press Secretary in the Johnson administration. He now serves as a news media pundit and is a critic of the corporately structured news media.

Thanksgiving is the time to show our sincere gratitude for all our blessings. Thanks, for family, friends, mother nature, food, the wind, rains, brother sun, sister moon, for our health and last but certainly not least, for the good earth we must continue to love.

<3 Happy Thanksgiving!

FOUR FREEDOMS

Submitted by ub on

—Franklin Delano Roosevelt, in his Third Inaugural Address, January 20, 1941

In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.

The first is freedom of speech and expression -- everywhere in the world.

The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way -- everywhere in the world.

The third is freedom from want -- which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants -- everywhere in the world.

LIVING LONGER

Submitted by ub on

As an educator, I have found that female students are overall smarter than their male counterparts. They are also better classroom participants.

Now we are told that ladies manage to live longer and enjoy life. Why do women live longer than men in almost every country in the world? A similar pattern of sex differences in longevity is also found in many other species; however, it is not clear if there are more species in which females live longer or vice versa.

Thanksgiving Feast

Submitted by ub on

Nearly 50 million Americans are traveling for Thanksgiving. Many could run into weather trouble, with major storm systems delivering everything from snow and ice to thunderstorms. Once they arrive, the last thing anyone needs is an extra serving of any type of holiday dinner difficulty.

As a result, experts are warning not to allow CampPain or 2016 Election talk to control this year's Thanksgiving. Please eat your fillings and swallow your feelings to avoid all political topics. Love and peace of turkey.
