Time For The World To Listen.

The following words were just delivered by United Nations Secretary-General at the Pacific Islands Forum...

I am here to focus on two fundamental challenges for your region and for our world: first, the increasingly severe impacts of climate change, and second, the deepening threats to the world’s oceans and seas.

Excellencies,

As you know all too well, the Pacific region is on the frontline of climate change.

That means you are also our important allies in the fight against it.

In the days ahead, I will also visit Tuvalu and Vanuatu.

American sweetheart Doris Day has died at the age of 97 in Carmel Valley, CA. Ms. Day was an actress, singer, and animal welfare activist. After she began her career as a big band singer in 1939, her popularity increased with her first hit recording "Sentimental Journey" a song that was written by Les Brown (1912-2001) and the lyrics were written by Bud Green (1897-1981). It coincidentally was released at the end of WWII and became the unofficial homecoming song for WWII veterans.

There’s no happy ending when they burn them all down. Throughout “Game of Thrones,” episodes were the ones with the most active and mind-bending moments. And so it went when the Last War unfolded broadly in the way most may have expected, with the Dragon Queen laying waste to King’s Landing.

Everything he did he did for those who had no voice. Everything he did he did for the realm #GameofThrones

Mothers Know Best

Submitted by ub on

Mothers know best and we all should know better. Women are smarter than men and have already proved it over and again.

Moms are struggling in the workforce while #USA is the only developed nation that doesn't offer paid leave on a national basis.
When will America catch up to the rest of the east, south north and west?

Salary parity and affordable childcare should not be out of reach because while Dad is being paid more, MoM does most and must receive moral support a great deal of gratitude from society, while also keeping in mind that every day is Mother Day.

Must CSPAN TV

Submitted by ub on

Would @cspan consider producing a reality TV Talkshow format featuring former public servants who worked in @WhiteHouse to answer questions from #American taxpayers about @POTUS?

Who is interested in knowing what @realDonaldTrump has done to #USA #DONews http://entertainment.doseofnews.com @USAGov?

From the keyboard it came, and to the the screen it shall appear. Now its time for all good women and men to come to the aid of our nation.

Throughout my lifetime, I have known wiser, memorable and inspirational older individuals. My wonderful parents Margarita, Antonio, my brothers, my children, and the best grandkids any proud grandpa would ever want. Also there are the other members of my family who have taught me very important life lessons.

As I keep living, learning, and reflecting on blessings around me I see the key to longevity is to keep learning and moving forward at a steady pace.
