""The larger (structurally) a democracy grows, the less becomes the rule of the people and the smaller is the say of individuals and localised groups in dealing with their own destinies."
- Mahatma Gandhi
Yet another reason Winnipeg one day should deamalgamate its suburban entities. Smaller has proven to be the best.

We Think Ourselves into Disease
http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/westview/thinking-about-death-can-kill-you-52300752.html
This article says that we think ourselves into various diseases, and become our worst fears.
So with the H1N1 artificially created "flu" and its forthcoming "solution" in the form of a vaccine, it is better to think that we will overcome this whole thing rather than to think that we'll die of it.
Same thing with Diabetes, Cancer, MS, etc...

59 Donald St. Rammed by Driver of Convertible
Some asshole rammed into the side of my apt. block on Donald St. today. Early reports from residents of the apartment block were that before dying though, she also hit a pedestrian who was crossing Donald St. (Note: but the media is now saying there was never a pedestrian hit).
She hit the building so hard that the inside wall of the lobby is now cracked.

Car hits building at Broadway and Donald
Updated: Fri Jul. 17 2009 16:32:22

The Winnipeg Police Service closed the intersection at Broadway Avenue and Donald Street after a serious car crash on Friday afternoon.
Police had originally suggested that a pedestrian had been hit in the crash, but that information turned out to be false.
The vehicle involved collided with a building in the 100 block of Donald Street.
Motorists were asked to avoid the area while police did their initial investigation, and say a female was taken to hospital in unstable condition, but say her condition has since been upgraded to stable.
Police say there is no further information at this time.
Here is CJOB's updated story:
Donald Street Collision
CJOB News Team reporting
7/17/2009
Donald Street and Broadway is now open to all traffic, previously closed due to a serious motor vehicle collision.
It turns out this was a single motor vehicle collision into a building....not a pedestrian hit.
The vehicle involved was travelling southbound on Donald Street after which time the driver lost control and collided with a building.
The 54-year-old female driver was the only person injured. She was conveyed to hospital in unstable condition. She has since been upgraded to stable condition.
And I snapped more photographs, one showing a bracketed area being marked with blue chalk, at one of the curb side parking spaces just north of the apartment block. Other Police markings, again in blue, show the supposed trajectory of the vehicle, and markings indicating "PF" and "PR". What do those mean?

The Iraq Plaque of Jesus - July 1968
I turned two in June of 1968 and about 3 weeks later Iraq was in the news. My Mom would turn on the Noon newscast on channel 7 CJAY and I remember sitting on the sofa but not looking at the tv.
Then I started hearing the words "Iraq". For some odd reason I then focussed on this ceramic plaque of Jesus that my Mom's Mom gave to her shortly before I was born.
Well, I must have heard her mention the word "plaque" because my mind joined those two words up and voila! -- instant toddler daytime nightmare.
My Mom was in the kitchen and as I sat there on the sofa, I started to scream for her to take down the plaque because it was scarring me. But she did not come. She just didn't understand what I was complaining about. I remember even pointing out the plaque to her.
She later removed it I think, but then the next day the same thing would happen. I'd be listening (but not watching) the local newscast, and then I guess they cut to the reporter's story on the latest in Iraq, and I'd freak out, closing my ears and screaming and wanting my Mom to take down the plaque of Jesus.
NOTE: Facebook doesn't go directly to the post on Blogger, so here is a link to the Jesus plaque.
Years later I recalled this and through the power of the Internet found out that Sadam Hussein had been a newsmaker on July 17, 1968. He had staged a coup of the Iraqi government and overthrew it between that date and July 30th.
I guess back then my brain heard the words "plaque" and "Iraq" and somehow thought they were somehow connected to one another. In reality the words just rhymm with one another.
The moral of this story is this. Parents, if your kids are screaming about something, perhaps you should listen to and attend to them, because it could be that they are having some kind of experinece like I had.

1968 - On 17 July the Baath Party returns to power in a bloodless coup that Saddam has helped organise. A group of Sunni Iraqis from Tikrit take the top posts in the new Baath government. Bakr is made president. Saddam is appointed as acting deputy chairman of the Revolutionary Command Council (the government's most powerful decision-making body).
On 30 July Saddam takes personal charge of a purge to rid the new government of old-guard figures. Two months later, following an unsuccessful coup attempt against it, the Baath government cracks down again, with Saddam and Bakr directing a further series of purges designed to eliminate opposition.

Memories of 1968
I remember when I was very young. Perhaps 2 (1968) or early 1969 when we used to go to my relative's home on Cobourg St. in Elmwood (which I really consider to be part of East Kildonan).
I remember part of their house. My cousin's bedroom was on the second floor, and because he lived there it was easy for him to walk up the stairs. But when I was there I found the stairs too steep, and it had this ribbed rubber mat that I found a bit slippery. So I would have to climb up there on my hands and knees.
Then one of the visits I remember that my cousin got one of those wind-up toy clocks with the musical tune. The tune is on the Wii Music disc -- "My Grandfather's Clock". The Wikipedia artcle says the toy clock came out in 1968, so that makes very much sense. Us two boys had the very latest toy.
Here's the lyrics and melody ... link
The one one the far left is the toy clock my cousin and I had. Separately of course.
As it turned out, my cousin's family moved to another house in 1974 when my Aunt and Uncle had a baby girl.
Funny though how I can't really remember the rest of the old house very well, but it was like yesterday I remember my cousin telling me to hurry up (and he was 2 years and a bit), and me telling him that I didn't like how the stairs were.

Playing back audio from Audacity audio editor
Last time I had Fedora (Linux) was version 8 and I had connected a headphone mic to it and was able to record audio into this UNIX workstation.
Cool stuff.
But I lost the program when I upgraded to Fedora 10.
This program Audacity has been around for about 16 years or more and is available for Linux, Mac and Windows.
The problem I have had in getting it working is not in the recording of audio from a mic, but in the playback. The settings is for the Alsa AC'97 output but it really should be set to Alsa:pulse or Alsa:default.
Now it works again and I'm interested in doing some audio commentary for truwinnipeg.org in the next while.

The Winnipeg Tribune - WE'RE BACK!
I just posted at TRUWinnipeg about how using your mind's intent to help cause a dream turn into a reality, in particular making the current 66 Grant bus route turn into a modern streetcar route.
I also gave the example of a Canadian infrastructure parts directory that e-mailed me two days after "riding" the Wilson subway between confusion corner and Polo Park, and including all the sounds and sights one would experience when riding such a thing.
Another example of a recurring dream I used to have in the early 1980s was where The Winnipeg Tribune would publish once again.
This dream went like this... It would be a Saturday afternoon in the Summer, and I'd be tagging along with my parents as we shopped at Grant Park. Back in the early 1980s there was a drug store chain called Metro Drugs, and I used to check out the computer and home video magazines there. In this dream I walk past the news stand and spot two or three copies of the Trib. This copy is not mass produced, but is like a limited edition -- much fewer copies than in the days when it published before closing.
The Winnipeg Free Press owns the name of The Winnipeg Tribune since the paper closed on August 27, 1980.
The copy price was $1, compared to the 20 cents back in 1980. But this was because of the lower circulation.
Now add the 'power of intent', and do this several times...See this scenario nowadays at your favourite local corner store or supermarket. And see yourself happy with excitement that the Trib is back again.
Then see the date of the paper. It says August 28, 2010, and the main headline says -- WE'RE BACK!
There is no copies of the Free Press because the Free Press has turned into The Trib.
I've just started a new Facebook group on this:

Dissolving Clouds with Your Mind
As kids, someone would pass along info that said that if you stare at a cloud long enough and wish it to disappear, in a few minutes it will.
I can't remember how I came to this but it must have been through more research on "chembusting" -- using orgonite and quartz crystals to evaporate chemtrail clouds.
So I remembered myself that in the 1980s I heard that you can just look at a cloud and make it totally disappear. There is some kind of spirit connection to the clouds and you can somehow communicate to them your intentions. Apparently us humans can also create clouds too.
This, however is a gift from God, to us. And I think that we should thank God that He has given us this gift of being able to do this. It's quite possible that God gave us this ability to show us that beyond Earth, when we are just our souls that we communicate via our minds, not our mouth.
It was a very overcast day in Winnipeg on June 10, 2009 and after reading on how to dissolve clouds, I tried a few myself. The sky was completely grey/black, and I thought it might be difficult to eliminate this whole skyfull of dark stormy clouds, but in 10-15 minutes the sky opened up in an arc that spread out in front of me westward and behind my building downtown. If you saw the skies clearing a few times during the afternoon, that was my doing.

When I looked away and went back to my computing, the sky in front of my apt. block and in an arc surrounding it became grey/black again. Others have tried this and have confirmed that it does work.
Chemtrail clouds, however, might be a bit harder, since they are man-made, and not totally water-vapour.
All I ask is that you give it a try. It doesn't hurt to do so.
I'm on the "Prayer" Facebookkgroupo and this one just came up. Kind of related to the above...:

Unseasonably-cool weather slows ice cream sales
The Winnipeg SunSaturday, June 6, 2009By Ross RomaniukSun Staff Writer
Winnipeg is shivering through a June cold spell that was expected yesterday to lead to a record low maximum temperature.The afternoon temperature at Richardson International Airport was forecast to climb no higher than 9 C after reaching only about 8.1 C over the noon hour -- well short of the previous low maximum of 10.8 C, which was set for June 5 at that location in 1992.DiscomfortEnvironment Canada meteorologist Dale Marciski said cold arctic air flowing south over the Prairies, northern Ontario and the north-central U.S. is behind the pre-summer discomfort.The chill was set to possibly bring record low maximums yesterday to Morden, Sprague, Gimli, Fisher Branch and Pinawa in southern Manitoba, and to The Pas in the north."I don't think in any case would this be the coldest temperature ever in June," Marciski said. "There are colder highs than this. But for June 5, these could be the coldest high temperatures."At a time when southern Manitoba's normal high temperature is 23 C and the low is 10 C, last night saw a risk of frost across the region and an expected Winnipeg low of 1 C.In parts of the Interlake the mercury was forecast to drop last night to as low as -1 C, downright dangerous for plants."We have a lot of problems with cold weather and frost -- putting plants away every night and taking them out every morning," said Denis Remillard, owner of the St. Leon Gardens plant store in Winnipeg. "It's been several years since we've had a challenging spring like this."The plant store is giving workers more days off due to the cold's effect in slowing sales, Remillard said.At the Bridge Drive-In, fewer than 50 customers had arrived yesterday to buy ice cream or other such snacks by mid-afternoon.Approach normal"That's one-eighth of what we should be doing," manager Roger Brisebois said, noting his staff had more idle time. "I sent one girl home, and we're just putting around here."The low last night at Winnipeg's airport was projected to come reasonably close to the June 5 record of 0 C at that location, set in 1998.The highs today through Monday will range from 14 C to 16 C, Marciski said, adding they might "approach normal" by hitting close to 20 C on Wednesday and Thursday.ross.romaniuk@sunmedia.ca
If more and more people connect what is wrong with our weather -- endless days of overcast skies, unseasonably colder than normal temperatures, and supposed to be uncommon (but common now) easterly-winds, then you'll find that this is not nature, but rather man-made weather modification, using chemtrails as the tool for this icky weather.
But I discovered something yesterday. A person created a link to a web page off of Alex Jones' PrisonPlanet.com forum that says YES WE CAN do something about chemtrail vapours.
Chembusters, which use Orgone to clear out the chemtrail vapours and help bring back the blue skies again.

Looking for 1959-style Anchor Hocking Glass Pitcher
When I moved out on my own in 1989, the pop culture - music, movies, tv, colour schemes and patterns seemed to emulate 1959.
It's like this one, except there was no pattern on it, and the bottom had a 'honeycomb'-like 3 layer 'rib' to it.
Even Safeway was into it, by remodelling its stores to use nifty neon to denote its Dairy, Meat, Bakery departments.
I think it was in May of 1989 that I bought a heavy glass pitcher from Safeway at Grant Park one day, and I used that at my first place at 28 Biscayne Bay (in Fort Garry). Then when I moved to 87 Smith Street I used it for several years.
One day I moved the pitcher over the sink tap to wash it and moved my hand too fast and the pitcher got a tear in the glass. Interesting that when I moved into 87 Smith the very same pitcher was left in the fridge for the next tennant. I guess you really have to be careful of these wonderful looking pitchers so the glass doesn't break.
So about 10 years later, I'm missing my 1959-style glass pitcher, and by doing some simple research I've confirmed the following:
* I did buy the pitcher from Safeway because the pitcher was apparently made by Anchor Hocking, which Safeway carries their glass measuring cup.
* The tip of the pitcher is called the ice lip. Didn't know the name of that part until now.
I don't know how I'll find a replacement, maybe I'll have to order one online, or maybe I'll find one at an antique store.
It's sad though that glass pitchers are not easily available like the Anchor Hocking was '89. The only stuff I've been able to see is cheap 'Made in China' plastic jugs, and I don't want that.

Prince writes song about chemtrails
Prince says that after seeing The State of the Black Union where Dick Gregory talked about chemtrails -- he is now more aware of them and has written a song about it in his new album, due out soon. The interview is from PBS:
Tell Videon you want channels
I wrote the following letter to the editor, that was published in the Winnipeg Free Press on September 17, 1998. It's a bit dated now in context, because Videon Cable-tv was sold to SHAW in 2001, and now Much More Music has changed its name to Much More...
I am responding to the news item that appeared in the entertainment section, Shaw, CHUM reach deal on new specialty channels where Shaw Cable has decided to carry the new music video network, MuchMoreMusic. The new music video network will debut on Sept. 30.
Why must Videon Cable subscribers be left behind, yet again? If you remember, MuchMusic first aired on August 31, 1984, yet Videon couldn't carry it until September 1987. Is this about to happen again? We subscribers demand the choice to decide ourselves what cable networks we should be able to receive, as long as the programming of that network is in good taste?
Alas, there does appear to be ample room in Videon's current frequency spectrum to carry both CTV SportsNet and MuchMoreMusic networks. Videon already carries simultaneous cablescasts of TSC The Shopping Channel, currently on cable 68, and CPAC Cable Public Affairs Channel, which is duplicated on cable 71. I was talking wth one Videon representative during the week and she informed me that there is no room for MuchMoreMusic and that I'd have to wait until some fuzzy time in 1999 before it would be made available. She also said that some of their customers couldn't find TSC when it was put too high up. Well that's tough luck for them. If those people have enough spending money to purchase those items from TSC, then surely they could find enough of that same money to purchase a newer TV, VCR, or cable converter to receive TSC on cable 30. What is Videon's real agenda?
I think what really needs to be done is to have Videon Cable transformed into a co-op organization where all subscribers would have a real say in what is or isn't carried on their cable system, subject to CRTC CanCon rules. If subscribers want Videon to carry MuchMoreMusic from the first broadcast day, I highly encourage them to give Videon a call at 287-4500 and say that they, the cable customers, should have a say in what is carried on their system.

Chemtrails in Winnipeg Letter of the Day
In mid-April 2009 I wrote a Letter to the Editor, which was published as Letter of the Day in the April 18, 2009 edition of the Winnipeg Sun:
Editor: Could natural clouds be greying up the skies?
Since then there has been a counter-letter reply, debunking chemtrails as just contrails, published in the April 24, 2009 edition of The Sun:
Who is this Kevin Marcotte gentleman? Could he be the very same Kevin Marcotte who wrote in a web board devoted to CFB Baden Soellingen in 1999?
Regardless, it seems that pandoras box has now been opened. More people are going to look up at the sky and wonder why the strange patterns. Then they'll start to do their own Google and Youtube searches....And then...
JET 'STREAMS'
Hey Winnipeggers, look up, way up to the sky.
Several people I have talked to have noticed 'chemtrails' more often over Winnipeg. These are produced by jet planes creating cross-hatch and heart-shaped patterns in the sky.
Not just in Winnipeg, but also planet-wide.
Why is it that the sky starts out clear blue in the morning, and by late afternoon it is grey and overcast?
It is because of these man-made "clouds" which are intended to block the rays of the sun. Some scientists have tested the fallout of trails and say it is composed of toxic substances like barium and sulphur dioxide — long-term exposure leading to a weakened immune system. Why are these chemicals being sprayed on us?
They are certainly not spraying for mosquitos at this time of the year, as mosquito season has not started yet.
As human beings on this planet, we have a right to breathe clean, fresh air, and receive undisturbed access to sunlight.

The "chemtrails" you're writing about are actually called "contrails" which is short for "condensation trails." These are visible trails of condensed water vapour made by the exhaust of aircraft engines. Depending on atmospheric conditions, contrails may be visible for only a few minutes.
That's it, nothing more. No great conspiracy to poison our air or block out the sun. Contrails don't collect together to make clouds. You might see more than one contrail at a time because more than one aircraft flew over.
The big clouds you see that fill up the sky are not man made. Those are actually real, nature-made clouds.
The smoke used at air shows is for show only and is considered harmless because it dissipates before it hits the ground.

Editor: Thanks for the explanation.
Who is this Kevin Marcotte gentleman? Could he be the very same Kevin Marcotte who wrote in a web board devoted to CFB Baden Soellingen in 1999?
Regardless, it seems that pandoras box has now been opened. More people are going to look up at the sky and wonder why the strange patterns. Then they'll start to do their own Google and Youtube searches....And then...

Deamalgamate Winnipeg!
The craziness that is the newly created 311 service illustrates that Winnipeg is not working out very well. It's time to CANCEL 311, and go back to the previous system we had where the receptionists at the various city departments, like the Clerk's Office at City Hall, can take people's calls, such as registering to speak at a Council meeting.
There was a time until December 1971 that the central city of Winnipeg was a completely separate from the City of St. Vital, the City of East Kildonan, the Rural Municipality of Fort Garry, the Rural Municipality of Charleswood, etc...
The past 37 years have proved that Unicity government has been a total, unmitigated FAILURE, and that the way back is to amalgamate and restore as many of these former municipalities as possible
In the past 37 years the identity of the suburban areas have melded with the city — one suburb is almost identical to another.
However, I feel that we had it right when Winnipeg created the Metropolitan Corporation of Greater Winnipeg, which was loosely modeled on the Metropolitan Corporation of Toronto.
Smaller is ALWAYS better. Smaller entities are always more EFFICIENT than monolithic, especially in government.
Until 1998 when Toronto amalgamated several nearby suburbs, the Metro Toronto area was known as one of the best organized governments in the western world. Under Metro government, and separate municipalities, the area was able to grow steadily since its creation in 1954. It was able to extend the TTC subway over 35 years, and through its construction, keep Metro development relatively compact.
The way back is to deamalgamate, and to return the emergency services back to the autonomous municipalities.

A Step Closer To The Mark?
If people just stopped using debit cards and went back to going to the bank teller in person, and paid for items with coins and dollars (cash) then none of this would be allowed to go forward.
Before debit cards were introduced in the early 1990s, customers used to fill out paper slips, wait in line, and hand them to the bank teller. The slips would indicate what the customer would want to do -- deposit some cash, transfer cash from one account to another, cash a cheque, or withdrawal some cash. These slips were not done away with immediately, but only when the banks said that most people don't use them anymore.
So to go back to that system we must stop using debit cards altogether, and demand that our banks return to the cash and deposit slip system! Sure it's a bit inconvenient, but it may HALT, STOP, OR CANCEL OR DELAY these chipped card systems that are a step closer to Revelations 13.
Revelations 13 says:
And [the Antichrist] causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that no man might buy or sell, save [except] he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Rev 13:16-18 KJV

We Are Watching The Watchmen
I saw the new movie The Watchmen this past weekend. It has several references to the New World Order and such.
The story goes back to a comic book released in September 1986, during the same time when "Iran-Contra" was going on in the mainstream media.
I noticed too during this time period a major shift in pop culture FROM one that is promoting "family values", for example the NBC Sunday night program Our House and ABC's The Disney Sunday Movie, TO one that questions trust of one another. Then in 1987 there were a lot of breakups in relationships and in families. The music changed a bit, from being fun, party-like, to being much more dark, and "garange"-like. If you don't know what "garange" is, just listen to the dark theme of Genesis' Tonight, Tonight, Tonight. It can best be thought of as a "biting anger".
That time period, between October 1986 and around 1992, were a transition period. Sure there was bad, but there was also good. We had the great set design and great catchy theme of CNN HeadlineNews, and we had a sort of revival of 1950s culture, where people were reminded of rural culture and those people who were migrating to the cities. So we had this ying yang of Town and Country.
But there was also the bad, in the form of increased tabloid journalism and the creation of FOX Television, Maury Povitch, Inside Edition, and wall to wall coverage of Iran Contra.

Discernment Folk Group has a drummer again.
Tonight I went to St. Ignatius Church (Corydon & Stafford) and saw that the group Discernment, who has been playing since 1970, has a new drummer.
It's been many years that they did have one, and the previous guy died of cancer or something like that.
It makes a HUGE difference in the music ministry in that the band memeber who are singing along are able to keep better time when so they sing together.
It brings back the Rock sound that the group used to have, and it makes it easier for the congregation to sing along if they can sing together with the beat of the drum.
