The Mining Journal,Marquette, MI  WEATHER BULLETIN  Up here in the Northern part of Michigan we just recovered from a Historic event --- may I even say a "Weather Event" of "Biblical Proportions" --- with a historic blizzard of up to 44" inches of snow and winds to 90 MPH that broke trees in half, knocked down utility poles, stranded hundreds of motorists in lethal snow banks, closed ALL roads, isolated scores of communities and cut power to 10's of thousands.    FYI:  Obama did not come.  FEMA did nothing.  No one howled for the government.  No one blamed the government.  No one even uttered an expletive on TV.  Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit.  Our Mayor's did not blame Obama or anyone else.  Our Governor did not blame Obama or anyone else either.  CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX, or NBC did not visit - or even report on this category 5 snow storm.    Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.  No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House.  No one looted.  Nobody - I mean Nobody demanded the government do something.  Nobody expected the government to do anything either.  No Larry King, No Bill O'Rielly, No Oprah, No Chris Mathews and No Geraldo Rivera.  No Shaun Penn, No Barbara Streisand,  No Brad Pitts, No Hollywood types to be found.    Nope, we just melted the snow for water. Sent out caravans of SUV's to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars.  The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn't ask for a penny.  Local restaurants made food, and the police and fire departments delivered it to the snow bound families..  Families took in the stranded people - total strangers.    We fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or Coleman lanterns.  We put on an extra layers of clothes because up here it is "Work or Die".  Even though a  Category 5 blizzard of this scale is not usual, we know it can happen and how to deal with it ourselves.    I hope this gets passed on.  Maybe .....  SOME people will get the message ......  The world does Not owe you a living.

Quotes of Thomas Jefferson~ Please read and Heed

"The greatest volume of sheer brain power in one place occurred when  Jefferson  dined alone...."  John Kennedy                        Especially read the last quote from 1802.   * When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as  Europe. Thomas Jefferson  The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.  Thomas Jefferson  It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes.  A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.  Thomas Jefferson  I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.  Thomas Jefferson  My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.  Thomas Jefferson  No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.  Thomas Jefferson  The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.  Thomas Jefferson  The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants..  Thomas Jefferson  To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.  Thomas Jefferson  Thomas  Jefferson said in 1802: 'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered...'  'If you don't read the newspaper you are uninformed, if you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.' -Mark Twain

2010 Census To Begin, advise for Citizen~Better Business Bureau

 

 

Subject: 2010 Census To Begin 2010 Census to Begin   With the U.S.   Census process beginning, the Better Business Bureau(BBB) advises people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft.  The first phase of the 2010 U.S.   Census is under way as workers have begun verifying the addresses of households across the country.  Eventually, more than 140,000 U.S.   Census workers will count every person in the United States and will gather information about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race, and other relevant data. The big question is - how do you tell the difference between a U.S.   Census worker and a con artist?    The BBB offers the following advice: If a U.S.   Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice.  Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions.  However, you should never invite anyone you don't know into your home.   Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information.  Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the U.S.   Census. REMEMBER, NO MATTER WHAT THEY ASK, YOU REALLY ONLY NEED TO TELL THEM HOW MANY PEOPLE LIVE AT YOUR ADDRESS.   While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT YOUR FINANCIAL SITUATION.  The Census Bureau will not ask for Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers, nor will employees solicit donations.  Any one asking for that information is NOT with the Census Bureau.   AND REMEMBER, THE CENSUS BUREAU HAS DECIDED NOT TO WORK WITH ACORN ON GATHERING THIS INFORMATION.  No Acorn worker should approach you saying he/she is with the Census Bureau. Eventually, Census workers may contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home.  However, the Census Bureau will not contact you by e-mail, so be on the lookout for e-mail scams impersonating the Census.   Never click on a link or open any attachments in any e-mails that are supposedly from the U.S.   Census Bureau.   PLEASE SHARE THIS INFO WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

Always blessings to you and yours
