The Conspiracy of the World Exposed

This article analyzes the conspiracies affecting the last four American presidents. It presents the creativity of the conspirators in deceiving people about well-known crimes which brought them huge profits. It also shows my creativity in presenting how to stop them.

The statements, views and opinions expressed in this column are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of this site. This site does not give financial, investment or medical advice.

Above is the famous cartoon portraying Rockefeller controlling the government originally published in The Verdict on January 22, 1900.

Many people do not believe that this conspiracy exists. My interest in conspiracies arose when I concluded they must exist in the case of the destruction of my homeland Yugoslavia. The western media unanimously lied about the situation in Yugoslavia. Coordinated fake reporting cannot present anything else but a conspiracy. The unanimous false reporting suggests there is a unique dictatorial power that controls the western world. If there are two or more independent centers of power, they will fight for domination, and we would see it. This hidden dictatorial power has established the conspiracy which helped them stay in power for centuries. It plans to conquer the world by corruption, cheating and dividing people, and by waging wars.

Western media presented the dissolution of Yugoslavia as an internal conflict amongst the Yugoslav nations. It was true, but the western powers also had the interest to divide and conquer Yugoslavia. Socialists won the elections in the republics of Serbia and Montenegro, while pro-capitalist parties won in the rest of Yugoslavia. No surprise, the western world accused Serbia of the problems in Yugoslavia and supported the other republics. It was the leading cause of wars. After almost ten years of the Serbian resistance of the western pressure, the conspirators lost patience and requested a military intervention against the Serbs in Yugoslavia. Russia put a veto on it in the UN Security Council. Attacking an independent state without the approval of the United Nations is a crime, and this was a problem for the conspirators.

President Clinton

Formally, US President Bill Clinton was supposed to launch the attack on Yugoslavia. Naturally, he resisted committing the crime. Then appeared the Monika Lewinsky case where media showed great interest in the sexual life of President Clinton, informing about it every day for more than a year. Then the American Congress, Senate, and Supreme Court found the interest in the sexual life of the president of the US and subpoenaed him to testify about his sex life before the Grand Jury. Since when are the US Congress, Senate, and Supreme Court interested in the sexual life of the American president?

The answer is – from the moment Bill Clinton resisted to commit the crime of the aggression on Yugoslavia. President Clinton lied before the Grand Jury about his sex life, which is what most people would do in his place. And because he lied under oath about his sexual life, it led to charges of perjury, obstruction of justice and his impeachment. Bill Clinton’s sexual life might have removed him from the presidential position. Seriously?

The impeachment process of Bill Clinton was nothing else but blackmail. The blackmail forced President Clinton to lead the criminal NATO aggression on Yugoslavia or else to face the removal from his position. Of course, President Clinton preferred his job more than the lives of thousands of people and commanded the attack on Yugoslavia. The Lewinsky case was completely forgotten the moment that Bill Clinton decided to carry out military aggression against Yugoslavia. It was a crime. I wrote more about it in the article My debt to Yugoslavia.

Now the question comes up who has such a power to manipulate the American Congress, Senate, and Supreme Court and to blackmail the president of the United States? It is undoubtedly a powerful organization with exceptionally wealthy people. It narrows down people who may commit such a crime to a few, and the investigation should not have problems to find people responsible for it even though they hide their wealth and power of influence.

President Milošević

The western world proclaimed the president of Serbia and then Yugoslavia, Slobodan Milošević, guilty for all the wars in Yugoslavia. After the coup in Yugoslavia organized by conspirators in the year 2000, President Milošević was arrested and sent to the International Court of Justice in Hague. He was accused there for crimes he allegedly committed in the war in Yugoslavia. In four years of trial, no evidence confirmed any of the crimes he was charged. This put the justification of the NATO aggression on Yugoslavia under serious suspicion. In these circumstances, the death of Slobodan Milošević would fit the needs of conspirators the best.

There is a basis for investigation against the doctors who have been caring for the heart disease of Slobodan Milošević in the court in Hague. Three months before his death, a medical check-up found traces of medicine Rifampicin in his blood. It is a drug for leprosy and tuberculosis, which is known as a neutralizer of some effects of the medication Milošević received for his high blood pressure and a heart condition. Milošević was informed about it four days before his death when he stopped taking medicine.

Finding the not needed medicine in Milošević’s blood that reduces the effect of the drug for his heart condition could be alone characterized as a murder attempt. The investigation on why the medicine for leprosy and tuberculosis was located in his blood was never performed. The court released notes that Slobodan Milošević had open access to medicine, so he was able to take it on his own. In other words, he may do it on purpose to kill himself. The investigation of Slobodan Milošević’s death did not take into consideration that he cried to receive help from an independent doctor. The court rejected his request. It resulted in the infarct from which he died. There is no surprise that the investigators concluded that Milošević died of a heart attack as a natural cause.

However, a large number of doctors stated that his death would certainly be prevented by the routine operation of coronary angiography and stenting. This is an elementary medical proceeding of heart disease which would save his life. The doctors have to answer why such a routine intervention of inserting stenting in his heart artery was not performed? The former Prime minister of Serbia Ivica Dačić said that “Milošević did not die in The Hague, he was killed in The Hague.” One may assume beyond a reasonable doubt that the death of Slobodan Milošević was a crime committed by the International Court of Justice in Hague. The investigation must be reopened. It would most likely lead to the conspirators who are responsible for his death. More information can be found here: Death of Slobodan Milošević.

President Bush

On September 11, 2001, the terrorist suicide attack by commercial planes destroyed the World Trade Center in New York and heavily damaged the Pentagon in Washington DC. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) performed an investigation about the 9/11 attack and found that the impact of planes, fire, and the heavy load of the buildings destroyed the WTC and the Pentagon. Some American media have heavily doubted it by finding numerous reasons why it would not be possible. A large number of people claimed that the buildings were demolished with explosives. Some of them formed conspiracy theories that claim that the Bush administration attacked the WTC and Pentagon to obtain a pretext for the aggression on Iraq and Afghanistan and to profit from it.

This nonsense inspired me to perform my investigation of 9/11. I found the NIST report correct and that the US government had nothing to do with 9/11. President Bush did not have the operational ability to derive a significant personal benefit from the aggression on Iraq and Afghanistan. He was surprised by the 9/11 attack and reacted awkwardly when he heard about it. The terrorists are all dead, so the chance to confirm a possible conspiracy about 9/11 is very weak.

But the conspirators made a mistake, which convinced me that the conspiracy did exist. In the last 18 years, the conspirators invested billions of dollars in the 9/11 false propaganda to accuse the US government for it. Nobody spends such amount of money in vain, and without such an investment, nobody would blame the US government for 9/11. The investigation just needs to find out who invested money to accuse the government. It will most likely lead to the conspirators.

Who are the conspirators, and why would they do it? They are extremely powerful, wealthy people who strongly influence or control the US government. They organized the 9/11 to get people’s support for the aggression on independent countries which had nothing to do with 9/11. They earned trillions of dollars from waging wars in these countries. They planned to earn much more by colonizing these countries. Furthermore, their manipulation has reduced the freedom of people in the western world, while dividing them and making them incapable of understanding where the problem was. The elite are masters of deception.

So, how was the conspiracy executed? One agent of the elite must have found Muslim fanatics ready to do 9/11. Then they searched for a scapegoat to hide their responsibility and to deceive people and hide their guilt. They could not find anyone else but the US government itself. The conspirators use the US government as a fake culprit for their crimes very often. When you hear the CIA did this or that, the only way you can hear it is when the wealthy conspirators who control media let you hear it. However, this time, if the investigation against the government ever opens, it would in no time conclude that the government is innocent, and that would mean no conspiracy ever existed. The conspirators would walk free of their crimes as they used to.

My experience with the western media teaches me that it is almost impossible to publish an inconvenient truth in the western world. If the accusations against the government were true, nobody would publish them. A massive number of fake videos about 9/11cannot be produced and distributed by chance. They must be the result of the conspiracy. The investigation needs to ask people who created fake videos, where did they get money for it. Sooner or later, it would lead to the conspirators.

Even though President Bush was innocent in the 9/11 attack, he is still responsible for “the war against terrorism,” which was the synonym for conquering non-obedient countries in the Middle East. It was a crime. He needs to answer who pushed him to commit the aggression on Iraq and Afghanistan? This should lead to the conspirators as well. It would give the names of the people who, together with President Bush, are responsible for the death of hundreds of thousands of innocent people.

President Obama

The conspirators wanted to remove Muammar Gaddafi from power in Libya to be able to take control over the Libyan state, oil, and people. They pressured President Obama to do it. I do not know whether President Obama has organized the rebellion in Libya, but he must have put NATO air force in the service of the rebels because nobody else could do it. The Libyan rebels were victorious because they got laser devices from NATO to guide NATO bombs onto the Libyan army. Whenever the rebels and Libyan army clashed, NATO’s laser-guided bombs destroyed the Libyan army. Otherwise, the Libyan rebels with pick-up trucks would not be able to defeat the Libyan army armed with tanks, and especially not in such a short period. It was a crime. President Obama needs to reveal who pressured him to attack Libya, and this will lead to the conspirators.

President Trump

No president of the US has ever been a more evident supporter of corporations than President Trump. Among other things, he relieved the corporations by lowering their taxes and privileged them by reducing free trade. He waged a trade war with China, economically sanctioned Russia, blindly supported Israel, pressured Venezuela and Iran politically and financially. President Trump can hardly support the rich more, and the rich can hardly find a better president for themselves. And yet, the corporate media owned by the rich have been attacking President Trump from the beginning of his mandate. I know, Trump has a weird character and lies a lot. But why would the rich attack their best asset in the US?

Another question is why the rating of President Trump increases with a policy that is traditionally despised by people. His policy should have been rated low. But with a low rating, Trump would not be able to support the rich. I think this is the reason the rich have created a conspiracy, which increased Trump’s rating by misleading the American people completely. I have created a conspiracy theory which presents how it was done. It is a brilliant deception of the American people.

The rich have invented the Russian meddling into the US election and falsely accused Trump of cooperation with the Russians. Then the rich assigned a special prosecutor, Robert Mueller, to investigate the Russian “interference” in the 2016 United States elections and “suspicious” links between Trump associates and Russian officials. The investigation lasted two years, and the opposition welcomed it, hoping Trump with his awful policy will be impeached. During this time, the rich have encouraged the opposition to attack President Trump, claiming that the proof of Russian support for Trump in the election will emerge in just a matter of time. The media controlled by the rich hysterically covered every event, which rose suspicion about Trump’s cooperation with Russia. This fooled the people.

Finally, after two years of hard investigation, the Mueller report stated that they did not find proof that President Trump’s campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russians; neither did they find that Trump obstructed justice. Of course, they could not possibly find proof for it because the rich people invented it. The Mueller report has made President Trump innocent after two years of accusations. It has increased Trump’s approval rate so that he is welcome to continue performing his terrible policy. The approval rate of the opposition dropped because it lost credibility by two years of supporting the false accusations of President Trump. It will not be able to change Trump’s terrible policy. The rich won by fooling people.

I am giving this example to present how creative and persistent the conspirators might be in supporting their preferred candidate. The conspirators are the masters of deception. It does not necessarily mean the rich will win the next election with Trump. It just means they will profit the most with Trump. However, the rich have built the system with which they win with anyone.

It does not matter who the American president is; he has to follow the interests of the rich. Otherwise, his presidency would be depreciated; he might be removed or even killed. Jimmy Carter was depreciated, Richard Nixon was removed,  and John Kennedy was assassinated. In my opinion, it happened because they resisted the will of the rich.

During their mandates, American presidents kill thousands or more people in wars. Is there something in their job description that forces them to kill people? No, the conspirators force them into following their interests. The American political system has given the presidents of the US way too much power over people, and this power is secretly controlled by the rich. It happens because the presidents alternate, and the rich stay permanently in secret control and rule. The presidents are puppets of the rich. This is western democracy.

All the presidents of the US have spent people’s money in favour of the rich. President Bush, pressured by the conspirators, spent around a trillion dollars in wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He has indebted each American citizen $3,000 because of it. The US president and the Congress might indebt the American people against their will, and the people cannot respond to it at all. This is because the rich have formed democracy that benefits them and not the people. This is the result of the conspiracy as well.

On October 3, 2008, President Bush signed the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), which gave 700 billion dollars to troubled financial institutions to avoid their bankruptcy by purchasing their toxic assets and equity. “Most people think that the big bank bailout was the $700 billion that the treasury department used to save the banks during the financial crash in September of 2008. But this is a long way from the truth because the bailout is still ongoing. The Special Inspector General for TARP summary of the bailout says that the total commitment of government is 16.8 trillion dollars, with the $4.6 trillion already paid out. Yes, it was trillions, not billions, and the banks are now larger and still too big to fail. But it isn’t just the government bailout money that tells the story of the bailout. This is a story about lies, cheating, and a multi-faceted corruption which was often criminal.” (Mike Collins, The Big Bank Bailout, Forbes, July 14, 2015) The US government still bailout the banks too big to fail on the US taxpayer expenses.

The US government issues more money than it can return and this causes inflation. Whenever the US government issues a trillion dollars from the Federal reserve, anyone who possesses one dollar around the world loses a few cents of the value of the dollar through inflation. People can purchase less with this dollar while the US government takes the rest of what the consumers lost. This is a taxation of the whole world. This is also one of the reasons the US is the most powerful country in the world. This is one of the reasons the elite who rule the US are the most powerful people around the world.

The conspirators of the western world have hijacked the rights that should belong to the people. No doubt, they want to control the whole world in the same manner. They work hard to subdue all countries around the world, and the result of this is evident in conflicts around the world. In the end, they plan to isolate Russia and China and force them into submission. I doubt that the conspirators would achieve this goal, but the tension and danger in the world will undoubtedly continue. Russia and China have started actively resisting the conspiracy of the rich, and this makes the conspirators anxious so that they will increase troubles in the world. Our wellbeing and peace on Earth depend on the will of dictators who cannot be accused of their crimes because their governing is invisible. We must stop it.

Jacob Rothschild is the most prominent name mentioned in the conspiracy theory world.

All of the knowledge society has built did not manage to create a good society, so I have developed a new form of democracy that will change the world and make it a wonderful place to live. It is based on my philosophy of equal human rights, which is in my opinion, the only proper orientation of society. The new form of democracy will eliminate all of the evil coming from bad authorities and conspirators, regardless of whether the Courts will prosecute them or not. It will create a bright future for humankind unconditionally. It is entirely out of the box and may look unacceptable at first sight, but this will change after people consider it because it is a real win-win solution.

The future of democracy will not be based on voting for people anymore, but rather on evaluations of the people. Let each person have equal power to evaluate, let’s say, three individuals positively and three individuals negatively or any combination with a total of six, each month. Let each evaluation have the power of one dollar. This means, each positive evaluation will bring one dollar to the evaluated person, and each negative assessment will take one dollar. Such power of the assessment will direct each member of society to respect other people. Such assessments will encourage every person to create the best advantages to others, to do everything they can to enrich the lives of other people and to diminish or abolish the creation of all forms of disadvantages. This is what will eliminate social evil and form a good society.

I have called such an evaluation, democratic anarchy. It will primarily affect authorities. The higher the position authorities have in society, the more people they affect, and the higher the responsibility they will have in society by receiving more evaluations of people. If presidents of countries may indebt each citizen for thousands of dollars, why can’t the citizens have the right to indebt the presidents for one dollar? Such a small power in the hands of people will force the presidents of every country to act very responsibly towards people. When people accept democratic anarchy, presidents of countries will have to follow the needs of people.

For example, the president of the US who performs bad policy lies to people, or commits criminal aggression on other countries, might get 100,000,000 bad evaluations from the American people. That would cost him 100,000,000 dollars in only one month. The American presidents would no longer dare to wage wars or spend the state money on private interests. If they do not fulfill the interest of the people, they would have to run away from their positions very fast. Then, President Trump would not remain in his position for longer than one month. Only the most skillful and brave individuals would dare lead countries. They will not be authorities anymore, but our servants.

Each and every person will have to respect the interests of people; otherwise, they would sooner or later face the power of the people. This is what will build a bright future of humankind unconditionally. I wrote more about it in the article Democratic Anarchy is the Future of Democracy.

“… in the case of the destruction of my homeland Yugoslavia. The western media unanimously lied about the situation in Yugoslavia.”

What happened to your homeland Yougoslavia was a great injustice and a tragedy. Now the perpetrators are paying dearly for it. The USA and the EU are on the decline.

Much of what the writer says is accurate but he overlooks several additional major factors. The move on Yugoslavia was also motivated by the desire to control the flow of opium from Afghanistan (the international drug trade is handled by the US CIA on behalf of the major US banks, not the Mafia) into Europe and to control the pipeline routes that were supposed to bring oil and gas from Afghanistan into European markets. President Clinton didn’t want a land war which is why NATO bombed them to smithereens from the air. But Clinton was exposed not for Yugoslavia but… Read more »

Obama… forgets about most wars this man ‘fought’, all the bombs he dropped, the civilian lives he snuffed out. Libya… forgets about the Gold Dinar and the water project. Prosperity for all of Northern Africa and with that independence, especially financial independence. This was about so much more than oil. You do not know whether Obama organized the ‘rebellion’? What kind of analysis is this? “We came, we saw, he died.” Opps, forgot the cackling laughter that followed. Chums. Laser devices were used by UK and French special forces on the ground. Libya… forgets about the NO-FLY ZONE, or better… Read more »

The Insider’s Tricks To Building a House In Latin America:

- Building standards... if you don’t set them quite high right off the bat your contractor will set them the usual 3rd World way, and you’ll be sorry.

- Chronic moisture problems... how after 500 years of building in the tropics, the Latin contractors still can’t stop a simple leak. And that means you’ll either have to train them yourself or grab a bucket and join in with the bailing.

- Latin irony #2345... how water damage can be good for tourism (say what?).

- A few more little things that drive expats nuts (especially women expats)... like closet mold that eats leather shoes...., and how to stay relatively sane and avoid such minor disasters.

- Why you should keep clear of local paint brands and waterproofing agents, and why written guarantees are a joke.

Furnishing Your House and the Black Art of Shipping Your Goods Down

- The do’s and dont’s of shipping household goods and materials down to L.A. Why dealing with airport customs is so much easier than dealing with seaport customs and shipping containers.

- Well known 1st World appliance names (are they even available?) –vs- the cheaper Latin brands that look just as nice... a word of warning.

- The tricks of dealing with your shipping container at the Latin customs office and how to get a lowball tax break (just bring a sexy lady along- its a macho society after all).

- Why you should never ship your antiques down, but why paridoxically, local antique hunting is a treasure hunter’s dream.

Building and/or Buying a House: PART 5

- Costa Rica; the ‘Switzerland’ of Latin America, and other blatant lies.

- Where the 'real' real estate deals are, and why newly abandoned single family construction projects are unbelievable bargans now that there's a huge housing surplus at the medium and high ends, and how to buy in for 25 cents on the dollar... peso, colon, lempira, quetzal, bolivar or whatever.

- How to find good, honest, household help. The do’s and dont’s of hiring and firing workers and domestics.

- Why Latins nearly always prefer Expat bosses over Latin ones.

Building and/or Buying a House: PART 4

- Hiring a general contractor, and why you don’t want him to speak English, dress nice or drive a decent car.

- Latin skilled labor, and why you should never judge a man by his sorry looking tool kit.

- The lost art of plastering walls is alive and well and everyone and his brother’s an expert (and its infinitely better than drywall). And why if you do use drywall, you’ll be sorry.

- Why checking written references or letters of recommendation are complete wastes of time.

- Contractors do guarantee their work, but you should never fully believe them, even if its signed in blood.

- Petty theft; when things walk off your construction site, and they will, and what to do about it.

February 14, 2011

Building and/or Buying a House: PART 3

- Because of phantom building inspectors, you’re on the honor system when it comes to building your house to blueprint specs and to the local codes.

- How the cost of a building permit is arbitrary (and subject to bribes) and how to avoid getting charged ‘gringo’ prices.

- Hiring an architect. Why good architects are a dime a dozen, unbelievably affordable, and will do practically anything to land an expat’s building contract (a 1st world style project is a huge portfolio booster).

- How to disperse funds and how to avoid (er.. minimize) pilferage and ripoffs.

- Getting big cash discounts on materials and how Latins skirt the taxman.

February 9, 2011

Building and/or Buying a House: PART 2

- Home Financing? Is that even a possiblity for an Expat with no real job? You’d be surprised.

- Title insurance? Fuggedabout it! But there are age-old Latin style unconventional ways to to check on property titles... though a few bribes might be in order ( in fact they're always in order).

- Workers liability coverage, performance bonds and/or bonded contractor/builder coverage? Fuggedabout that too! They’re not on the menu, not for small projects like single housing units, not yet anyway.

- Why everyone’s naked in Latin America (insurance naked that is), and why practically no one ever bothers to purchase even a simple homeowner’s policy.

February 7, 2011

Building and/or Buying a House: PART 1

- Has the housing crisis hit down there yet. YES, but how bad is it?

- Building -vs- buying. The two best buy right now; new homes in guarded communities and residential towers (ahem, ... but what about those pesky earthquakes Chile style, when you’re happy as a clam and living in stylon the 29th floor?)

- How to make sure you get 1st World standards and quality in the 3rd World, and at half the price (or less

- Location, location, location: in Latin America its definitely true, but its also about the water supply, or lack of it... and why you Don’t want to be hooked to any local municipality cuz you'll be sorry.

- Property taxes Latin style: though they’re almost laughable, you still get what you pay for.

February 2, 2011

- Part 3, the conclusion of Love and Romance Latin Style - The EXPAT Advantage: Unlucky in love in the 1st world? In the Latin love lottery you’ll almost always win. Down there the odds are heavily stacked in your favor due to over-the-top and sometimes downright irrational stereotypes Latins have about 1st Worlders (I know its crazy but why complain?) But watch out! South of the boarder jealousy and posessiveness rule, in fact they’re practically on steroids and always on a slow boil ready to go ballistic at any time.

- Why if you start a business you’ll need TWO lawyers: An honest one and a crooked one, and why if you’re really unlucky, you’ll get them both in one package.

NCC Begins Review Of Telecoms License Structure

In demonstration of its responsiveness to global trends and the dynamics in the Information and Communications Technology ecosystem, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has initiated the process for the review of existing licensing structure in the Nigerian telecommunications industry.

An important step towards achieving this was taken on Wednesday, June 9, 2021 by the Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NCC, Prof. Umar Garba Danbatta when he inaugurated an in-house Standing Committee to carry out the task.

The Director, Public Affairs, NCC,
Dr. Ikechukwu Adinde in a statement said, Danbatta, while inaugurating the Committee, said the need for the review of the existing license structure was informed by the wide range of technological advances, convergence of technologies and services which have characterized the global telecoms space over the years, and which impact is increasingly being experienced in Nigeria.

According to him, the current license structure is almost 20 years old, hence the need for an urgent review of the existing license pattern to reflect new licensing trends in line with international standards while providing opportunities for improved revenue for government.

“Therefore, it is evidently clear that this Standing Committee, drawn up from competent hands in various departments of the Commission, is perfectly suited and capable of addressing the enormous task of reviewing the existing license structure of telecom licensees in Nigeria,” he said.

While noting that the work of the Standing Committee will be carried out in phases, Danbatta said effective delivery of the Committee’s task will help the Commission to institute a process, which will culminate in the review of the terms and conditions of the various license categories.

These, he said, will include licensing fee, as well as identification of the limitations of the various license categories, with a view to clearly determining licenses that should be phased out or amended.

Specifically, Danbatta outlined Management’s seven-point deliverables from the Committee to include a comprehensive review/report on existing licenses; report and recommendations on consultative fora; and report on recommended new license undertakings.

Others include a report on recommended amendment to license fees and durations; a report on benchmarking of license with similar jurisdictions, a report on the impact of certain licenses on other license holders.

The Committee is also expected to recommend solutions as well as the develop updated regulatory framework for new and amended licenses as the case may be; and a final report on the project with all recommendations.

Also speaking during the inauguration of the Committee, the Director, Licensing and Authorisation, NCC and Chairman of the Committee, Mohammad Babajika, assured the Commission’s Management of the Committee’s resolve to deliver on the terms of their assignment.

At the end of the Committee’s assignment, and following due consultations with industry stakeholders, the Commission envisages a new draft framework for new and amended licenses.

Extra Sorbet

Scenario: you make sorbet for dessert. However, you eat too much dinner. So, what do you do with the leftover sorbet? Well, we ran into this situation over the weekend with extra berry mojito sorbet. Can you say too much pizza?

Sorbet needs time to ripen (firm up) in the freezer. However, it can freeze really hard. So firm, that it is difficult to scoop out of the container. The good thing is, sorbet is very forgiving – you can soften it and refreeze it without altering the texture (unlike ice cream which makes weird crystals). I kinda thought there might be too much sorbet on Friday evening, so when I was serving dessert, I made a few extra scoops and re-froze them. That way, they were in convenient serving sizes for repurposing into tasty beverages. First, I made a sorbet spritzer on Saturday evening. Then, on Sunday morning, I made a sorbet kefir smoothie. I think they were both good ways to enjoy the deliciousness that was the extra berry mojito sorbet. Hope you also enjoy them

Print Recipe Feature

I also hope you like that I finally have a print button! I know lots of folks who use tablets, smartphones, and laptops in the kitchen and I do too on occasion. Though generally, I am a Luddite and I like an old-fashioned printed recipe (often I add handwritten notes in the margins). But I do not want to print an entire blog entry because I try to be mindful of printing too much. Now, with the handy-dandy Print recipe link, you can print a plain version of the recipe. Thanks to Anastasia at While Chasing Kids for the inspiration. Her blog is awesome and she has used this feature for some time. So I peeked at the code and we figured out how to do it on my posts. Eventually, I will go back and add it to some other posts (especially long recipes).

Sorbet Spritzer
(Print recipe)

2 scoops sorbet

Sparkling water, chilled (Pellegrino, club soda, seltzer, etc.)

Garnish: few berries (or whatever fruit is in the sorbet), mint leaves, and/or lime wedges

Serves: 2

Put a scoop of sorbet in each glass. Top off the glass with sparkling water. Garnish and enjoy!

Fruity Sorbet Kefir Smoothie
(Print recipe)

2 scoops sorbet

2 spears of fresh pineapple, sliced

2 fresh peaches, sliced (pits removed)

Splash of low fat plain kefir (or yogurt)

Serves: 2

Put all the ingredients in a blender. Cover. Process until smooth. Enjoy.

Other ideas for repurposing sorbet:

  • Sorbet ice cubes: Just before you ripen the sorbet in the freezer, take some and freeze in ice cube trays. Then you can use the cubes for spritzers or smoothies. Probably easier than making scoops, freezing them, and then storing them. Just keep the cubes in a resealable plastic bag.
  • Sorbet popsicles: You can make little square popsicles by placing a toothpick into each cube once it is semi-set. Then freeze until firm and enjoy. Or, if you have popsicle molds, even better! I guess little jars or cups with popsicle sticks would also work.

Latest from Uganda

Here's a picture taken while I was doing an early morning pre-flight inspection 2 days ago, on Sunday, on a remote strip in South Sudan.

It's not normal for us to do flights on Sundays, but we've had an aircraft stuck in that location for a long time now, requiring some TLC from our engineers. There have been a number of attempts to bring the aircraft back to Uganda, but b/c of various complicated logistics, it hadn't happened yet. But seeing how the world, including Africa was shutting down travel, we all felt better if we could get the aircraft out of that remote location. Thus, I was asked to fly an engineer, and another pilot up to that village on Saturday, with the idea that we would all come back Sunday in both planes. Here's a shot of some test flights the other pilot and engineer were doing in the Cessna 182 aircraft.

Unfortunately, late Saturday evening Uganda announced impending closures of their borders and all international flights. There were so many other complicating factors involved in this maintenance-ferry flight, that we and management made the decision to leave that plane where it was, rather than run the risk of having us (or the other pilot) stuck in countries away from our families for possibly extended periods of time. So we hightailed it out of there early Sunday morning (picture below) and flew straight back to Uganda. We were really thankful for the hospitality of the AIM folks there, and their past and continued help in keeping an eye on our little plane sitting off the edge of that runway.

Meanwhile, here are some other random shots from the past two weeks...

We've had tons of rain, which has led to challenging conditions at a lot of our strips, including both our home strip (b/c Lake Victoria is actually so high that it's flooding over the end of our airstrip) and the airstrip pictured below in Karamoja, Uganda. In the photo below, I was giving a routine proficiency check to another one of our pilots (something we all undergo on a regular basis) and he had to evaluate the condition of the runway where water was flowing over from one side to the other. In the end we 'cut-off' the unusable part of the runway, rather than risk sinking in, and were still able to take off with our required safety margins on the remaining portion of the runway.

The past few weeks were extremely busy as MAF not only completed normal flights, but also did lots of extra, last-minute, urgent flights at the request of many people and groups who were afraid of being stranded here in East Africa as international flights worldwide began to get cancelled. I was happy to be able to do one such flight for our friends from IMB who had a short-term group from the U.S. helping out in northeastern Uganda.

Here's a picture of the very typical housing setup of the villages in Karamoja, Uganda. For the vast majority of people in this part of a the world, life goes on completely as normal, no matter how the rest of the world is reacting to Covid-19.

The flight from Arua, Uganda to Yambio South Sudan takes us over the northern part of East DRC, a vast area of wilderness.

This is a tea plantation that we fly past every day when we land at our home base in Kajjansi.

An early morning departure out of Kajjansi on our way up to South Sudan...

This was the view from my bedroom window on Saturday morning.

We've been enjoying our 'family time' most evenings, with various outdoor games like croquet (pictured below) and corn hole, rollers, can jam, spike ball, etc.

Many of you are curious how we are doing (with the Covid-19 situation) and what is going on with that here in Uganda. If you don't care, you can skip the rest of this. But if you do, then I'll give you a brief update.

For what it's worth, MAF has a Crisis Management Team that is meeting daily, and keeping an eye on situations all over the world where they have staff. There are numerous procedures in place to minimize our own risk, while allowing us to continue to provide help to others if/as able. Obviously it's a highly dynamic situation, so things continue to be monitored and often change daily as needed.

As I mentioned previously, we at MAF were extremely busy the past few weeks trying to meet all the urgent flight requests. Many foreigners have now left East Africa, and returned to their passport countries. But some are still here. Most of us at MAF are still here, but our flights have now been drastically reduced, as most people are understandably limiting travel. Last week Uganda announced the closure of all schools, churches, public gatherings, etc. for 32 days. Obviously that had a big impact on families like ours, who have kids in high school--they are now doing school from home, online with their classes and teachers.

Over the weekend the government further closed all international borders and banned all international flights to/from Uganda. So we are here for the duration. Uganda had their first (known) case of Covid-19 a few days ago, and now they have 9. Life for some people has changed rather dramatically b/c of the aforementioned closures/restrictions. However, for the vast majority of Ugandans and East Africans, life goes on as normal, almost as if nothing is happening elsewhere in the world.

Most people in Uganda live hand-to-mouth, day-to-day, without any discretionary income to stockpile food or even to buy 'excess' stuff like hand soap/sanitizer. They often live many people in one small house or hut, and share a common outhouse, if even that. The idea of social distancing in those situations is ridiculous.  Furthermore, they have to continue to sell or do whatever it is they do to get their small daily income--for example, selling street food, or produce from their garden, or eggs, or whatever, so that they have a bit of money to buy food for that day. None of those activities will stop. That hustle and bustle just continues to go on, because it has to, no matter what virus is out there.

It's worth noting that many people in this part of the world have suffered so much in their lives, often on a wide scale, and often more than most of us will ever suffer in a lifetime. There are certainly those (especially in the city) who do feel fear/panic, but there are many, especially in more remote locations, who do not. They don't really even have a choice. They live life in a raw, gritty, real way that many of us don't understand, and with that they see pain/suffering/death as a very real part of life... not something fun, but not something strange or foreign or to be feared. In other words, they have been facing this type of struggle (and worse) often throughout their entire life and they just deal with it as it comes. Many also have a deep faith that God has already chosen their day, and they have peace in that. We should too!

So all that to say that yes--many things have changed here, specifically as it relates to public gatherings and organized things like school, government, and travel. And the next days and weeks do hold a lot of uncertainly for us, as they do for you. But we rest in the peace and confidence that God is in control, and none of this took Him by surprise.

Random Shots from the Phone

This post features a few random shots from the iPhone. Some are from my very old iPhone 5s, that recently died. And some are from the refurbished iPhone 8 that replaced it. As a photographer, I don't buy into the concept that phone cameras will ever totally replace 'real' cameras. That is a discussion for another day, but trust me, there are many situations and types of photos where a phone will never come close... especially if you know how to use a 'real' camera and it's settings. However, it is true that the best camera is the one you have with you, and I don't always have one of my 'real' cameras with me. But I usually do have a phone. So, although they aren't quite as striking, here are some of those phone shots...

Above, a shot taken late in the day after completing a flight to South Sudan. There was a lot of rain earlier that day which cleared out the dust and haze and led to a beautiful, late afternoon sky.

Below, the pilots often get to see some pretty awesome sunrises out over lake Victoria as we pre-flight the aircraft.

During dry season it gets extremely hazy/dusty and smoky. However, the past year has been one of the wettest on record here in East Africa, and this has been a strange dry season, with lots of intermittent, heavy rains. Here's an early morning shot of the outskirts of Kampala (one of  the well-to-do areas) after some heavy rains cleared out the sky.

One of the places we frequently fly to is called Kalongo. You can see the end of the airstrip in the lower left third of the picture, just below and to the left of the group of blue-green roofed buildings surrounded by green trees. All those little buildings make up a small hospital that sees many hundreds of patients each day from all over the region--people with every type of ailment, injury and sickness you can imagine.

I had the privilege of flying these really great friends of mine, whose organization is doing some really awesome stuff in the remote, northeastern corner of Uganda, and elsewhere.

A few weeks ago, Joy had the opportunity to speak at a chapel service for hundreds of high school kids who had come here from several International Schools around East Africa to play a football (soccer) tournament hosted by our kids' high school. That can be a tough audience--a bunch of teenagers who have no idea who your are and why they should listen to you. But Joy really knocked it out of the park, sharing from the Word, and speaking Truth, while sharing bits of her own testimony and our family story. Everyone was totally tuned in and listening to every word, and the feedback we got confirmed that her sharing had a big impact!

In other news about Joy, the past two weeks have been pretty rough for her. Two weeks ago she started feeling really ill. Long story short, after passing out twice, and with extreme dizziness and fatigue etc., she eventually wound up in the hospital for 3 days here in Kampala. Interestingly, after first being in the ER for a few hours, and then the maternity ward (apparently that was the only place that had a bed available for a while) she eventually wound up staying in the exact same room that I was in 15 months ago after my motorcycle accident. Obviously that brought back a lot of not-so-good memories for Joy. Two weeks later, we're thankful that Joy is continuing to slowly get back to normal, and feeling a small bit better each day, gaining a bit more strength and energy.

This was a daddy-daughter date with my beautiful big 'little girl' Hannah. She's no so little anymore but she'll still always be daddy's 'little girl'--she's a beautiful, amazingly talented young lady who will be graduating from Heritage International High School this May, and will be starting university this coming fall in the U.S., studying pre-med. Her and I am a lot alike in our personalities, humor, likes and dislikes... which, yes, includes riding the motorcycle. Several times she has thanked me for giving her such a vivid demonstration of the medical world (by getting run-over and squished by an SUV) so that she could see first hand that indeed she does like trauma medicine and most likely wants to pursue that as a career. Haha. See... we both have an odd sense of humor. I thought it was funny. Anything for you Hannah... it was the least I could do. :-)

And here's my other beautiful little girl, Sanyu. I always tell her that she's daddy's favorite little girl, so when she heard me telling Hannah that Hannah was daddy's favorite big 'little girl' Sanyu burst into tears. Through her sobs, with big alligator tears streaming down her face, she asked me why she wasn't my favorite little girl anymore? Then we had a good talk where I explained that she was daddy's favorite little 'little girl', and that Hannah was daddy's favorite big 'little girl', so they were both my favorites, and then everything was ok. That made perfect sense to her and the tears stopped and the smiles came back. :-)

She loves to be daddy's little helper with anything and everything that I am doing, including making pizzas.

Speaking of food... fried grasshoppers are definitely 'closed-eye-worthy,' a term that we coined after our son, Tyler, always used to close his eyes every time he bit into something that he thought was super succulent. So now we often do that to emphasize something that is super tasty, which is what Sanyu is doing here as she enjoys this seasonal treat--crunchy on the outside, and squishy on the inside. Yummy!

And since we are on the subject of food, last week I whipped up another batch of my famous (well, it's at least famous in my own house) hot sauce. The base for my pepper sauce is a variety of the scotch bonnet pepper, grown locally, which is much hotter and tastier (in my opinion) than an average habanero. Then I throw in a few other types of chili peppers, some onions, lots of garlic, and a ton of cilantro. All of that becomes a pepper mash, which I carefully weigh to the exact gram, so that I can add just enough salt and vinegar to allow it to age in corked bottles on the shelf. The longer it ages the better it gets. This made about 10 liters, which will probably last us about a year and a half or two. How hot is it? Well, it's not even comparable to any of the average Tabasco's, but if you've ever had the Habanero Tabasco, then it's probably at least about 2-4 x hotter than that. It's not as hot as Dave's Insanity Sauce though. What I (and some of my kids who also like hot stuff) enjoy about it is that it not only has just the right amount of heat, but also has a very complex and delicious flavor. We put it on just about everything. :-)

The Happy Broadcast logo

The government postal agency is planning to send about 13.5 million postcards across the county, according to a news release. They are part of the “Write Here Wrote Now” campaign established by the Canada Post in September to encourage letter writing as a means of connection.

“Meaningful connection is vital for our emotional health, sense of community and overall well-being,” Doug Ettinger, president and CEO of Canada Post, said in a statement.

Not everyone will be getting the same exact postcard. There are six different versions — each offering a message of love, appreciation, or thanks — that will be randomly sent out to each household. The cards can be sent anywhere in the country for free.

Holder rips ‘rampant corruption’ in Trump Cabinet

Getty Images

Former Attorney General Eric Holder slammed the Trump administration at an event for Democrats in Ohio on Friday, accusing the president and Republicans of allowing “rampant corruption” to go on in the Cabinet.

In remarks to Democrats Friday night that were first reported by the Washington Examiner, the Obama-era attorney general accused congressional Republicans of abandoning their duties of oversight over the executive branch.

“There is rampant corruption within the Trump Cabinet, but a Congress full of Republicans is simply unwilling to conduct oversight or to hold them accountable,” Holder said.

Holder didn’t go into further detail about his criticism, but his remarks come amid a series of damaging news reports surrounding EPA administrator Scott Pruitt, who is accused of living for months in a condo owned in part by the wife of a top energy lobbyist and directing staff to approve raises for longtime aides even after the White House rejected the pay increases.

Pruitt is only the latest Cabinet member to be accused of questionable financial decisions.

In his remarks, Holder also attacked the Trump administration’s decision to exit the Paris climate accord, as well as the degradation of NATO alliances.

“Decades old — and effective — alliances have been questioned. The effectiveness of the North Atlantic compact that has ensured peace — and prosperity — for over seventy years, and after the bloodiest century in the history of mankind, is now doubted,” he said.

“Our efforts to lead global action to deal with climate change have been abandoned,” Holder, 67, added.

The former attorney general is considering a bid to challenge President Trump in 2020, and said last month that if he ran it would be because he believed he could “unify the country.”

“If I were going to do it, I would do it because I would think I would have concluded that I could maybe unify the country, because it’s bigger than any one person,” Holder told The New York Times in March.

“That I could repair and then advance the nation in a variety of contexts. That I had something to contribute. That would be — I think that would push me toward considering the run,” he continued.

Ocasio-Cortez, Levin introduce revised bill to provide nationwide electric vehicle charging network

Electric car
An electric car being charged.

Reps. Andy Levin (D-Mich.) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) introduced a revised bill Wednesday that would build out a national network of electric vehicle charging stations.

If passed, the Electric Vehicles Freedom Act would create a plan for a network of public charging stations that would allow drivers to drive anywhere in the U.S. with limited risk of the battery dying too far from a station.

While the representatives introduced a similar measure in 2020, they cited the Democratic Senate majority and the Biden administration as factors that made its success more likely in 2021.

Ocasio-Cortez also called the bill part of a broader slate of Green New Deal policies she and her colleagues have recently introduced.

“The EV Freedom Act is a piece of legislation that upholds those core Green New Deal principles … it’s part of a much larger comprehensive approach to transportation, we’re making sure we’re not leaving any community behind,” she said in a press call with Levin on Wednesday.

Ocasio-Cortez also emphasized the need to ensure that such buildouts of infrastructure addressed existing inequalities in transportation infrastructure, saying current access to electric vehicles in particular is “built upon lines and geography of privilege.”

She added that public charging stations are particularly vital in areas where housing is densely built, pointing to the legacy in New York City of urban planner Robert Moses. Moses, she noted, “essentially railed through the Cross Bronx Expressway” through heavily Black and Latino communities, and modern transportation infrastructure must avoid similar policy decisions.

Asked how she would respond to Republican criticism that pro-electric vehicle policies advantaged the wealthy, the New York congresswoman responded that Republicans “have it backwards.” The bill, she said, would “create the infrastructure” for electric vehicle charging to be treated as a public service.

“Right now electric vehicles are expensive, and so the way we can drive down these prices is by building out the infrastructure that will allow … more affordable electric vehicles,” she added.

“Getting to mass production is everything,” Levin added, saying “It’s not about waiting for markets because it’s not necessarily in anyone’s economic interest to provide that charging capacity right now.”

The representatives added that they were also developing policy in cooperation with disabled people, who are disproportionately affected by both transportation policy and climate change in general.

“We intend to have people from the disability rights communities as full partners right along in this,” Levin said, noting they had solicited input to ensure the bill included full Americans with Disabilities Act compliance.

“It’s important it’s explicitly uplifted that our disabled community is an environmental justice front-line community,” Ocasio-Cortez added.

Court Battles

Sackler family offers up more money for Purdue Pharma opioid settlement

The Sackler family is offering more money to settle the Purdue Pharma bankruptcy case, the mediator of the settlement reported on Friday.

The mediator filed a third interim report on Friday in which the Sackler families proposed paying between $5.5 million and $6 million for the settlement. The original bankruptcy settlement was listed at $4.3 million.

The mediator, former Bankruptcy Judge Shelley Chapman, asked that the parties of the settlement receive more time to work on the settlement proposal.

“A number of Mediation Parties and Additional Parties have requested that the Mediator continue working with the Mediation Parties and the Additional Parties, either to achieve unanimous acceptance of the Sackler Settlement Proposal and/or, in parallel, to explore other settlement structures not dependent on unanimous support,” Chapman wrote. “Especially in light of the issues that remain unresolved, the Mediator is willing to do so, and thus respectfully requests a further extension.”

Bankruptcy Judge Robert Drain agreed to the extension, saying in a court filing on Friday that “the progress made to date in reaching an agreement that would result in such substantial additional consideration clearly warrants the requested extension.”

Purdue, the maker of OxyContin, filed for bankruptcy in 2019 in an attempt to settle about 3,000 lawsuits from states, tribes and other local entities related to the company’s aggressive opioid marketing that they argue contributed to the opioid crisis that has killed nearly 500,000 people over the past 20 years.

The settlement plan would permanently shield members of the Sackler family and hundreds of their associates from future opioid lawsuits.

A spokesperson for the Mortimer Sackler family told The Hill that they did not have any comment beyond the contents of the mediator’s report. The Sacklers themselves are not the subject of the bankruptcy proceedings.

An advocate for national addiction recovery, Ryan Hampton, told The Associated Press that it did not look like the latest proposal would provide additional money to those affected by the opioid crisis.

The Hill has reached out to representatives of the Raymond Sackler family and Purdue Pharma for comment.

Classic slots

The Triple Diamond casino slot online is another brand new classic slot from IGT with high payouts and interesting wins. The pokie is not new to a host of players out there, but it has been replaced and redesigned to have a modern looking interface. The production now has more play lines, and jackpots to not only bring more people to play but to retain them. This 3 reel and 9 pay line slot feature several styles, options, opportunities and rounds for you to make more money than expected. The slot is built in a gambling empire and with the traditional reel number of 3. The title also has in stock the lucky number 7 that is very common in the conventional no download free slots out there.

Easy Spin – Excellent Feel

The slot has very low volatility being a classic slot machine. It also has a graphics and sound which seems to be fair enough for a traditional pokie. The simple 9 reel game is a reason why the slot provides an exciting experience that every player would love to embrace. The buttons – Spin, volume buttons and other buttons were well engraved in the reel to create a synergy between the background and the buttons. The design also ensures that the players are entitled to a stereo sound, backlit symbols and a lever which you can use to play the game.

To play Triple Diamond slot machine online, a player needs to know more about the paytable, the winning combination, and the bonus rounds. The paytable pays out 2 credits in case you land a triple diamond symbol and 10 credits for two Triple Diamond symbols. However, you would land about 2, 000 credits if you could land at least three Triple Diamonds. In case you land the symbols on the 9th reel, you will be entitled to 25, 000 credits. Other symbols that could make you win include 7s which could earn you 100 credits, yellow bars – 40 credits, purple bars – 20, blue bars – 10 credits and black bars which pay 5 credits. You can kick-start the game with as high as 45 credits.

Bonus Features

Triple Diamond free has several bonus features and round that would not only help you hit the jackpots but increase your chance of making more money. Just like its predecessor and most of the traditional slots, the wild symbols are the bonus features, and it pays in a different amount for players to win big. The amount paid by the pokie includes:

  • One wild symbol gives 2x multiplier.
  • Exactly one wild symbol will offer 3x multiplier
  • Two wilds give 10x multiplier
  • Two wilds without any symbols on the pay lines offers 9x multiplier
  • Three wilds up to 1, 199x.

More Multipliers

When you play Triple Diamond for real money, you will enjoy the numerous multipliers that plague the game like the Egyptian plagues. You would also have the chance of winning as high as 1, 199x your total multiplier. This means you have to create a strategy that will allow you to place a high bet for you to be able to land the highest payout. You do not need cheats or tips to win this Triple Diamond game, all you need to do is to understand the rules. This no download slot has several play lines but has no free spins, unfortunately.

Bet to Win

For you to win diamonds, you have to place a bet. The play lines of the pokie are fixed. Thus, you only need to determine your suitable coin range. The coin range of this title is between 0.01 and 100. You can place a minimum bet of 0.09 and a maximum bet of 900 credits. The slot does not have any free spin, but it has an autoplay option. The option allows you to play the title automatically while you do other things.

Choice is Yours

So, What’s Goldbeard?

If you love pirate stories and the tantalizing Treasure Island adventure, then you’re welcome to spin the Goldbeard reels. The slot game with a progressive jackpot was created by Real Time Gaming (RTG), an online casino software provider. The highly entertaining and interactive video slot’s theme is as ‘the life of pirates.’ Goldbeard casino slot online gives you an opportunity to become a pirate with anything from ZAR 0.01. It has some pretty excellent features including fantastic free bonuses. Furthermore, you will notice that the sea-adventure game has several symbols whereby the wild symbol is the most crucial. The rest of the symbols relating to the theme are: the pirate ship, the parrot and the treasure chest. Also, there are canons and gold coins symbols. The Goldbeard slot has incredible colors with unique pirate themed details that work well together to fit the treasure hunt story.
It is available in two modes: the Goldbeard free play version and real money play. In the game, the maximum amount gamblers can stake is ZAR 100 while the minimum bet amount is ZAR 0.02. The slot machine bears 20 play lines and 5 reels. A player is allowed to participate in the game only with 0.01 and 5 as the minimum and maximum coin sizes. The game has an RTP of 95 percent.

Playing the Goldbeard

The game is simple to play with no complex rules. Once you join, you can immediately start spinning. It has no fixed paylines, you can adjust to your budget. Its betting range is between 0.1 and 100 coins. The Goldbeard symbol which is the wild icon appears on the first reel and on the fifth reel during regular gameplay. Note that, the wild icon can do magic to your bet! The symbol doubles any win in which it is part of the combination. To that, add the fact that it activates the free spins. Here, players are rewarded up to a maximum of 20 free spins. Oh, one more thing; other than the scatter symbol, the wild icon substitutes every other symbol on the slot board. This substitution is essential in creating a winning combination besides activation of the bonus round! The good thing is that the icon gets activated for the third reel.

The Scatter symbol in this game is the Gold Coin. The Gold Coin’s appearance on the reels multiplies your bet wins. Your bet can get multiplied x1 for 2 coins, x5 for 3 coins, x 20 for 4 coins or x100 for 5 coins in a single pay-line. There are also other symbols in the game they include the Ghost Ship, the Treasure Chest, the Cannon among others. Though these other symbols pay less, they help to increase your game’s value in the long run.

Despite the fact that the game has 20 lines, a player can change the active pay lines to make a wager by using the up and down arrows on the slot board next to the Lines button. When you hit on the Spin button, you get to play only the chosen lines as well as bet per line. Alternatively, there is the Autoplay feature which helps you focus more on your winnings as it automatically spins the game reels for you. Elsewhere, the Max Bet option gives you the freedom to play the 20 lines entirely.

By embarking on the treasure-hunting adventure, you stand a chance to collect 5,000 coins as a jackpot! Remember that as you play, you have opportunities to hit the jackpot at any time. The prize can go up to 15,000 credits in the bonus round. With the random progressive jackpot feature, you can hit more than ZAR 100,000, and if you are lucky enough, you could win the jackpot. The thing is, the high-sea adventure game is on the RTG network and part of the progressive series, and hence, the random jackpot. The jackpot prize only grows as you place your bets on the online casino, it doesn’t need a set combination; any spin can land you the award.

Winning the Game

The online slot enables you to experience many wins. When you match two Goldbeards to produce a winning combination means even more significant gains. The appearance of the wild symbol in the first and fifth reel doubles all your wins when it completes the winning combination of symbols. That is not all; you will also be in a position to retrigger free spins. All your wins get tripled during these free spins. The Gold Coin icon, on the other hand, multiplies your wins thus increasing your earnings when it appears on the reels.
Gamers can win bonuses like Free Spins, Pieces of Eight Total-Bet Multipliers and Random Progressive Jackpot, when they play Goldbeard slot machine online. Good bonuses give you an opportunity to play much longer, and at the same time, you have an advantage of accessing high limit slots play with a small deposit. There is a favorable betting range, and you can earn big payouts, which means that it has high volatility.

Take Away

The good thing with the online slot is that if you’re not sure or have no idea about the game, you have a chance to try it out for free before parting with your cash. It, however, is not on full screen like other gambling casino games offline. The game allows you to walk away with a lot of money if you find the treasure. The free spin rounds and lively atmosphere that it offers attracts many players to it. The Goldbeard game gives you an exciting opportunity to enjoy your time with pirates as you relax. The game’s random jackpot that can be activated as you play together with the flexibility it offers, and its special features will enable you to win substantial sums. If you are looking to win, then play Goldbeard for real money.

David Eagleman: Why Our Legal System Needs Neuroscience

In an article in today’s Daily Telegraph, David Eagleman — acclaimed neuroscientist and author of Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain — tackled the issue of neuroscience and its role in the legal system. The central issue lies with the assumption that all people are “practical reasoners” (meaning they will act in their best interests and are capable of rational foresight), and that anyone who is of legal age and has an IQ of above 70 has the same capacity for impulse controlling, rationality and decision making as any other individual who meets these standards. Why are these assumptions problematic? Because, as Eagleman points out, they are not true:

Along any axis that we measure, brains are different – whether in aggression, intelligence, empathy and so on. Brains are more like fingerprints: we all have them, but they are not exactly alike. As Lord Bingham, the senior law lord, put it, these myths embedded in the legal system do not provide a “uniformly accurate guide to human behaviour”.

The legal system needs an infusion of neuroscience. It needs to turn away from an ancient notion of how people should behave to understand better how they do behave.

Instead of treating incarceration as a “one-size-fits-all” solution to violators of social norms, Eagleman proposes that we try and sentence offenders based on a variety of different conditions. Specialty mental health courts and facilities for the mentally ill, studying the neurological demand for drugs instead of spending millions fighting the supply, and engaging prisoners in brain-based rehabilitation programs — all of these ideas focus on the reality of human behavior, instead of the societal expectations of it. Just as DNA evidence has revolutionized the legal process, Eagleman believes that incorporating the recent breakthroughs in neuroscience can help make our legal system more efficient, more humane, and more fair.

Grantham man denies more than 20 child sex charges

His trial will begin in January

A Grantham man has denied sexual charges against a number of young alleged victims and making indecent images of children.

Christopher Manning, 37, will stand trial in January next year after he entered not guilty pleas to the 21 allegations he faces during a hearing at Lincoln Crown Court.

Manning, of Dalton Close, Grantham, was originally charged with the first alleged offences in February and appeared before Lincoln Magistrates’ Court.

He denies seven charges relating to a boy aged under-16 including three offences of rape, two charges of sexual assault and two charges of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity.

Manning also pleaded not guilty to nine offences against three alleged female victims, who cannot be named to protect their anonymity.

They include two charges of indecent assault, three charges of rape, one charge of sexual intercourse with a girl aged under-13, one charge of sexual assault, one charge of sexual activity with a child and one charge of sexual communications with a child.

Manning also pleaded not guilty to three charges relating to the making of indecent images of children in category A – the most serious – category B and category C.

He also denied two further charges of possessing a prohibited image and encouraging or assisting the distribution of an indecent image.

The offences are alleged to have occurred over a 23 year period between November 1998 and February this year.

Judge Simon Hirst remanded Manning back into custody until his trial in January.

  1. Hi Lewis, I just found your blog and it is amazing. You give great advice about learning chinese and living in China. I read your articles about being a vegetarian and the one about noisy restaurants. I completely agree.
    It is strange that Chinese people enjoy noisy restaurants, to me they are horrible places to go.

    • Thanks! It really makes my day when I get some positive feedback. I aim for the blog to be informative and useful for people learning Chinese, but also personalised and talking about my own experiences so that it will also be of general interest too. I’m glad you feel I’ve got the balance right.

    • Sorry about that, I need to update my email address. You can contact me on facebook (just search “Lewis Tatt”, I’m the only one) or if you use WeChat you can add me, just search “lewistatt” (all one word, all lower case).

  2. Hey! Really enjoying your blog. I actually kind of found it by mistake, as there is another site/channel called ‘Mandarin Corner’ however I’m SO glad I did. 😀

    • Thanks Matt, you’re not the first person to make that mistake but I’m very happy to hear it was a good mistake for you. It really makes my day when I get some good feedback!

  3. I just read your latest blog posts about errors Chinese people make when speaking Mandarin. Very interesting! I’m surprised people would get the word order wrong since written Chinese is based on Mandarin, isn’t it?

    • Hi, glad you like the post! Yes, it’s really interesting that the dialects are so different. In some ways they’re more like different, but closely related, languages than dialects. You’re right that the standard written language is mandarin, but in Guangzhou they often write things in Cantonese. From what I know, when they write in Cantonese they often use traditional characters and also some characters that aren’t used in mandarin, like 冇. I guess this is how things are written in Hong Kong since Cantonese is the official language there, but to be honest I don’t know so much about Cantonese, it’s just some bits I picked up when I lived there.

How to Remove Stains and Hard Water Scale from Toilets

How to remove stains and hard water scale from toilets. Toilets can unfortunately develop staining and a build up of mineral scale in the bottom of the toilet bowl, however there is an easy way to get rid of it.

If you live in an area with hard water, your toilets can develop a build up of mineral deposits, such as calcium, magnesium lime among others. This build up of minerals or hard water scale leaves an unsightly permanent brown stain at the bottom of the toilet bowl, that you just can’t get rid of no matter how much you clean the toilet.

We now have an amazing product, Bar Keepers Friend Toilet Bowl Cleaner available in my shop Organised HQ that easily removes built up stains from toilets in just five minutes. It is also safe to use with septic systems.

Bar Keepers Friend Toilet Bowl Cleaner is really one of those products that has to be seen to believed in how well it works. If you have built up staining and mineral deposits in your toilet it is rather visually awful and can make you feel a little embarrassed when you have guests visit. Now you can easily clean it away. Have a look at the amazing feedback, and before/after photo from a lovely member of the community.

OH MY GOSH! I’M IN LOVE…When we bought our house there was this ‘permanent’ build-up in the toilets. I had tried every product on the market even CLR for 2 full days…when I saw the Keepers Friends toilet bowl cleaner at Organised HQ I just had to try and…. 5 mins, little scrub and WHAT… IT WORKED?! I was so gobsmacked. I have never loved a cleaning product so much; I was sceptical but so pleasantly surprised with how well it worked and the time it took too. Clare

How to remove hard water stains from a toilet:

  • Clean the toilet as you normally would. This way you can see the where the permanent staining is.
  • Put on a pair of rubber gloves and apply Bar Keepers Friend Toilet Bowl Cleaner generously to the inside of the toilet bowl. Making sure to get all sides of the toilet bowl and under the rim.
  • Let it soak for at least five minutes. Do not close toilet lid.
  • Scrub entire bowl thoroughly with a toilet brush, in particular where the staining is, and flush.
  • You may need to repeat this process to remove some remnants of staining.
  • Rinse toilet brush thoroughly in fresh water after use.

Bar Keepers Friend Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Clean and deodorize your toilet. Easily remove stains and hard water build up.

Bar Keepers Friend Toilet Bowl Cleaner only requires 5 minutes to help to dissolve hard water stains and restore shine. The angled spout allows for easy under-the-rim application, and the extra-thick formula clings to the bowl for maximum cleaning power.

For extremely stained toilets:

For severe cases of mineral scale build up, where you still have some remnants after the above process, you may need to remove the majority of the water to effectively remove the remaining stains.
  • Switch off the water supply to the toilet.
  • Use a plunger to remove the majority of the water, leaving a small amount in the bowl.
  • Repeat the cleaning process above.

Keep your skirting boards sparkling clean with these quick and easy tips to remove dust, dirt, and even those unsightly scuff marks. Continue Reading
