Reformation 500 & other things
- Written & posted on October 28, 2017, Saturday.
- Martin Luther is said to have posted his 95 Theses on the Castle Church Door like one would post something on a bulletin board today. I read that the intent was to invite scholarly debate. They were translated, printed, and circulated widely igniting the Reformation to Luther's surprise. October 31, 2017 will be the 500th Anniversary of that event in 1517.
- I intend to go to an event about the history of the Bible in English in Waukesha later today.
- Work goes on. We finished onions & red cabbage and expect to finish beets in early November. Then, if I stay on instead of taking early layoff I should see potatoes finished in early December.
- "If the Lord will..." for all of the above, of course.

13th Anniversary of Joining Goldtoken Today. What has changed?
Written on 23 June 2017.
Joined: 23 June 2004
Joined: 23 June 2004
- Same:
- I had "Joing" in the title. I can still make spelling errors. That has not changed.
- I had "14th Anniversary" in the title. I can still make arithmetic errors. That has not changed.
- Changed:
- Today I lost a valued member of some clubs who turned around and opened a new club. Change, but not all bad.
- Somewhat same:
- I was reminded that there are still crooked folks in power by two e-mails from Ron Paul which pointed out two problems:
- that some in the U. S. Senate apparently don't wish to completely repeal ObamaCare but are trying to sneak around being honest about it instead trying to water something down &
- that Congress which has the exclusive power to make laws at the federal level has some in it who wish to keep allowing bureaus to act as though they have law-making authority.
- I have "met" some pleasant folks here at Goldtoken over the years. Nice to have new friends. My classmates are widely scattered.
- I was reminded that there are still crooked folks in power by two e-mails from Ron Paul which pointed out two problems:
- Overall?
- Some bad, some good. I am older. Still not happy about losing that club member.
- Solomon wrote something about nothing new under the sun.

Free-Form Compound Words & Singular They
I used "singular they" in something I wrote here earlier today. A member of a club thanked me for letting them know about it. I wrote this response which I am posting here before posting it within that club.
2017-06-17, Saturday
I have dabbled in learning about language for years. I "begged my way into" being allowed to take a Classical Greek course at Northwestern College while it was still here in Watertown, Wisconsin. I picked up some things there. I have an alternative explanation for the objection to ending a sentence with a preposition at least partly from what I learned about Greek verbs in that class. It goes something like this. "Ice cream" is not the only two-word compound. If one looks at how some Greek words were formed one notices that they had not merely prefixes and suffixes but also sometimes an extra prefix as though they were held together magnetically, pulled apart to make room for something new to be dropped in, and then released to snap together containing the extra prefix between the first prefix and the rest of the word. Let's say one word would be translated as "call out to". Now why should we have to treat those as three separate words in English rather than as a free-form three-word compound? Continuing from that one could claim that examples of ending a sentence with a preposition are examples of free-form compound words. So, the prepositions are not dangling at all; rather, they are fastened to the other word(s) in the free-form compound word.
I don't recall exactly when or from whom I learned of singular they. A friend of my sister said that spoken language was primary versus written language. Sometimes things seem to happen without any group of folks deciding that they should happen. Have you ever read of the Great Vowel Shift ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Vowel_Shift I don't know much of it. I think that I read or heard that children simply pronounced words differently than their parents had. Apparently something similar has happened with the use of the pronoun they. Apparently stress over gender agreement alternated with stress over numerical agreement. I would have liked the one who wrote about that to have included a number of examples from written English from over a century ago along with dates for each example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they

Why the Constitutional Militia ?
- 2017 May 10, Wednesday
- A while back one asked why we needed the Militia as the Military took the same oath. Edwin Vieira, Jr. spent maybe a year of his life researching the Militia issue and writing his book on it which is available on CD rather than printed out because he did not get enough prepaid orders to justify printing it. Patrick Henry spoke about it in the Founding Era while the acceptance of the Constitution was at stake.
- These are from Dr. Vieira, indirectly or directly, respectively:
- Constitutional Militia http://constitutionalmilitia.org/
- which deals with all three ems I use as a memory device about his writing.
- Why_the_Militia.pdf http://edwinvieira.com/PDF/Why_the_Militia.pdf
- Constitutional Militia http://constitutionalmilitia.org/
- Devvy Kidd's article, Gun Owners Want Hillary Clinton to Gut Second Amendment http://www.newswithviews.com/Devvy/kidd746.htm contains the link
- 3 IndestructibleLegacies.pdf http://www.libertygunrights.com/3%20IndustructibleLegacies.pdf which lays out Patrick Henry's reasoning on the matter.

PDF Readers Built into Some Web Browsers Now
Written Thursday, May 4, 2017 after the two about Vieira's site's new section and "Judge Candorfull".
I noticed that I could read PDFs from sites in a browser tab in Microsoft Edge and the Iridium Browser without needing first to download them and then to use a PDF-reader to open them.

Now he has praise from the Cashew Gallery. Ah, the sorrows of scholars!

Special Feature Section on Dr. Edwin Vieira Jr.'s Site
A while back I was looking at some of my bookmarked sites and happened to compare
http://edwinvieira.com/
to
http://www.newswithviews.com/Vieira/edwinA.htm.
He had added something called
Special Feature
to his own site above the body of his articles which I think are also posted at NewsWithViews.
All of those in the new section are in PDF format. The latest is dated April 29, 2017. I have yet to read it.

Don't Repeat My Foul-Up
Written on 2017 April 19.
A while back I got a message which included the wish that I have fun at Goldtoken. Its sender had found earlier replies from me lacking. I wished to craft my reply with care to avoid that reaction and so was taking my time composing a reply. Alas, I did not ask myself how that one would interpret my not promptly reciprocating the well-wish. I noticed that the correspondence between us was gone from both my Inbox and my Outbox. Then I tried to check that one's Profile. Not accessible. I had been chumped.
Looking back on it, I think that I should have promptly reciprocated the wish that I have fun on Goldtoken and mentioned that I intended to take my time crafting the rest of my reply to avoid meeting with disapproval again. One need not reply to one message with one message. A message can be broken in two. Too bad that I did not think it through back then.
Don't repeat my mistake.

More User-Friendly Hyperlinks ?
A little while back I commented to an opponent that I thought the hyperlinks at News With Views seemed more consistent than those at World Net Daily.

Anniversaries - Where Has Time Gone?
- Written on 15 June 2016. In 2015 I was thinking of anniversaries. I am still thinking of them.
- 2015
- Pastor Werner celebrated his 40th anniversary in the pastoral ministry and retired.
- Some of my classmates who went through Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary and became pastors had their 30th anniversary.
- Dad died thirty years ago.
- I did a little math while attending a high school graduation: 2 x (18+1) + 18 = 56, old enough to be the grandfather of those graduating. Not exactly an anniversary but something notable.
- 2016
- Didn't go this year. Old enough to be a great grandfather now.
- Thirty-five years from 1981, what would have been my college graduation year had I made it through with my classmates at Dr. Martin Luther College.
- Mom died in 2006, about ten years ago.

Dr. Vieira (& Herb Titus) on Judicial Twisting of Language
'Same-Sex Marriage' Versus Judicial 'Good Behavior' 23 June, 2015 at 08:00
http://barbwire.com/2015/06/23/0800-same-sex-marriage-versus-judicial-good-behavior/
is the article I found. It is the tenth in a series. Hmm. Maybe NewsWithViews dot com does not have all of his current writing ?I think that the use of the term, hate speech, has spread like an infection. Herb Titus years ago spoke out about why hate speech laws were wrong. I wish that I had noted down his reasoning. Also, I wish that some in broadcasting had put his point up on a plaque above the door to their radio studio for them to look at while doing their call-in radio program. Doing the above might have helped to stem that.

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=good+behavior+standard+for+judges
I thought good behavior a higher standard of conduct than merely no felonies. I heard or read that in the early days of the united States a judge was removed from office for being drunk in his own house. (Of course the Senate must be willing to remove such a judge for the impeachment by the House to do any good.)
Herb Titus has his own website. He might have some discussion of this standard somewhere in his That's The Law audios in MP3 format. Alas, he charges for those. So much for my giving you a gratis source of information!
http://herbtitus.com/ in case you wish to look at it anyway.
He had a radio show called That's The Law for about two years which was on during the 2000 Census. I was listening to it while working for them. He stopped the program because he was too pressed for time by other responsibilities.

Who Should Control Your Technology, You or Someone Else ?
Written on 18 Jun at 8:56AM applied to my first posting of this here. I am updating it today 23 June 2015, the 11th Anniversary of my joining Goldtoken.
Apparently mentioning the Politics DB helped to cause at least one not to study this post closely. That was not my intent. I want this to last beyond its vanishing from that DB because the issues matter. Some are always maneuvering to misuse laws to take advantage of us, that is, to work against the general welfare for their own gain while pretending that they are working for the general welfare. I think that might be going on with the things mentioned here. Read. Think. Judge for yourselves.

Eleventh Anniversary Here Today 23 June 2015
I joined on 23 June 2004. I did not "go Platinum" right away. They might have started tournament divisions after I joined. I could test with tournament numbers to check that. I was made a President of The For the Love of Draughts Club to my surprise. The Owner and Founder of The Chess & Variants Club wished to hand off his club to lighten his load; so, I accepted as I had volunteered to be President. He does much at this site, maintaining the Olympic wikis. One of the other players who was Owner of a few clubs has pulled back from that. Now we must get by without his presence in them. I have actually posted some things to my Photo Album here.
I botched my last post by not going into detail about why I wished to preserve the post it quoted after that post vanished from the Politics Discussion Board. The issues raised by the articles I cited matter whether anyone replies at that DB or not, but apparently mentioning that DB deterred at least one player from looking closely at them because he does not follow that DB. Talk about unintended consequences!
I am watching Decades TV Network now, of all things. One of the Psalms talks about losing one's companions. I am not sure which one now.
Both parents died in June. They were married in June, yes, but they died in June too. Mom's anniversary is past. Dad's is coming.

Sons of Liberty Media: Proposed Constitutiional Amendment Yet Pending
I learned about this from an e-mail they sent to me. They gave it a different title.
This is not the only such thing. A few years back a proposed amendment put forth along with those which became the Bill of Rights (if I have it right) was finally adopted requiring that the implementation of changes of amount of payment for those in Congress (and maybe other parts of the federal government?) be delayed until the next Congress had been seated. That one "floated" over a hundred years.
I read that a proposed amendment should be set up to make sure that the People are roughly the same as when it was put forth by requiring that it be approved in a few years rather than leaving an indefinite period available for ratification. Was the suggested time seven years? I think so.
Would this amendment move us from too centralized to too decentralized? I am not sure.
Here are its title and hyperlink.

Ron Paul Message 10 on TV Saturday, April 18, 2015 !?
I think a warning from Ron Paul is not mere alarmism. I suggest watching it.
*?* Who paid for it *?* I guess that the Campaign for Liberty, the Stansberry folks, or both paid for it. Whichever it was I do not recall seeing Ron Paul on TV doing a warning-to-the-public commercial before.
So how did I miss messages 1 through 9? Maybe I need to try the links which would work for those?

Bought Movie & Origami Boats ??!
I at last watched the Bought Movie yesterday, Sunday, March 15, 2015. The trouble seems to stem from our letting power get too concentrated in corporations. Limiting government is not enough. Other concentrations of power must be limited too by not letting corporations or other factions take advantage of everyone else for their own gain.
A while back I was following up on a notice that my Yahoo! groups had been updated and stumbled on a Yahoo! group about, of all things, Origami Boats*!*, something of which I had never heard before. I had heard that the katana was folded steel. Folding steel to make boats is surprising, to me anyway.

Free-Libre Open-Source Hardware anyone?
If some of you have gone to The GNU Operating System and done some reading you likely have read of Free-Libre Open-Source Software or FLOSS and of the moral concepts involved.
Now someone is trying to do something like that with hardware.

Memorial Day and Keeping Liberty - Please Use "Need Proof Now?"
to the other citizens of the States of the Union out there! 
I have read only a little of Sir William Blackstone's famous work but recall that he wrote that martial law was no law at all. May we be spared it!
Let us give thanks today not only for those who died protecting this country but also for those who helped to set it up including Sir William Blackstone.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Blackstone
http://www.lonang.com/exlibris/blackstone/
http://www.earlyamerica.com/review/spring97/blackstone.html
Let us thank God for our liberty but not rest on the laurels of the Founders. We have much to repent of including not following our own Constitution by allowing funny money, also known as currency -- something which stands for but is not money -- to replace precious metal coin in our land. Please view, read, and listen to the resources available at Need Proof Now?
http://NPN.net/
I spoke with a youth who is soon to enter our armed forces who thinks martial law is coming and got the impression that he thinks it might be a good thing because that would force folks to work hard like he does. I give him that folks should work, but not everyone does the same thing or even likes to do the same thing. I question whether he is asking that nasty question, "Who profits?", about our "money" system. At his age I was not looking at that either. For our own military to be turned against us to profit those who are taking advantage of us by a crooked currency system would be a shameful thing.

The Neighbors R Mowing! Weather. StartMail. NPN.
Last week Wednesday, April 30, 2014, both of the next-door neighbors just had to mow their lawns, a sign that spring is upon us and that this lawn soon will need it too.
Thunderstorms are forecast for Wednesday or Thursday. I don't envy those folks their experiences with tornadoes. So far God has spared Watertown, Wisconsin that.
Today, Monday, May 5, 2014, I received an a-mail that I could sign up for a 90-day free trial of a free StartMail e-mail account. I signed up. Now, to whom do send messages from it? I don't know many offhand who are set up to receive encrypted e-mail.
If you wish to see or hear some of the things made available by Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr. and others then check out Need Proof Now? at http://www.npn.net/. The independent researcher Devvy Kidd has her e-mail there.

Why the Spying on Us and on Our Leaders?
(Updating of what was posted on 15 Nov 2013 at 2:16PM CST)
A few of you might have read Edwin Vieira, Jr.'s speech in which he defines a republic as a government which serves the general welfare of the people and its opposite as one which takes advantage of the people to serve a few. I thought that this speech was at two places online, one of them being the Roger Sherman Society's website (the other being the website of the Constitution Society now that I found it again). Alas, I did not find it but rather another of his speeches. I think all of his articles are worth reading; so, here is that other's link.
Here is a link to Dr. Edwin Vieira's Presentation At The National Press Club, June 29, 2000 titled Gangster Government, contrasting a republic to a totalitarian state
(I think that I would like to watch the video of this speech if it exists.)
I suggest that one should read this speech before his first one at NewsWithViews, "Homeland Security" -- For What and For Whom?
Vieira has written that the rule by the ugliest ones (kakistoi = uglies ones; cracy = rule) will eventually impose a military crackdown on all of us in the USA. That has to do with all of us who are not in on the corruption.
Maybe if folks here in the USA understood that we have a gangster government and that the security is for them against us they would act together to bring this to a halt before it is too late?
The spying on us apparently is to enslave us, but what is gained by focusing on our leaders? According to Devvy Kidd they have been spied on for years. She thinks blackmail is going on. I never before read that a Supreme Court Justice had hallucinated anything!
What is that saying? Ah! "You can't make this up."

Upshot from the NSA-Spying-on-Us Mess: New e-mail coming + GM reduced - Pecunix left +
- A while back I read that Devvy Kidd would no longer answer e-mails from folks who used accounts which do not honor privacy like Yahoo! accounts. (She had earlier mentioned the Startpage search engine.) My Yahoo! account is my main account. I list one reference below. Her own dot-com site might have been where I read it though.
- Devvy Kidd -- NSA snooping: who to blame and what to do
- So, I did some looking for private e-mail and
- learned of things like s-mail,
- but also came across a project by three Icelandic programmers to write a FLOSS e-mail program -- Mailpile. See http://www.mailpile.is/.
- I looked at how they accepted gifts and wondered why no one had given to them using Goldmoney. They had had gifts by Bitcoin. Why not by Goldmoney?
- So I did some reading. I think that it seems that the author of Goldmoney was scared off by what happened to e-gold and so no longer allows account-to-account transfers rendering it useless for trade. His company still does some good letting folks acquire ownership of precious metals and running an educational foundation, but to my way of thinking eliminating account-to-account transfers lessens Goldmoney's overall value to the common man. Still, I would not want the risk either.
- The one I found still standing which lets one do account-to-account transfers of title to precious metals is called Pecunix. I hope that they steer clear of the Patriot Act so that they are not damaged like e-gold was.

Dogless Days Are Back
My sister had her Basset Hound put down today, September 12, 2013, at Noon local time -- Central Time Daylight Saving Time.
I was working through tears thinking of it today even before it was done. At home while Sis was broken up I was on this computer likely seeming cold as stone to her. Some of her friends came over to comfort her.
The last time we had no dog in the house was in 2004. Mom was alive then. Sis got this one to replace it and to comfort Mom.
Well, I intended to post about this the day it happened. That is done. I may post more about it later.
The dog's parents and all of its siblings with the exception of one which went to a farm somewhere in Oklahoma are know to be dead now. The bloodline is gone or almost gone. Angel's father Charlie died in January 2013.

Off Work & Sick Dog
I am off work today. I think that it was a very-high-seniority day. I might have the day even off even had I not chosen to take the day off which was offered to me yesterday.
My sister's Basset Hound is ill -- degenerative joint disease with the cartilage in her hips mostly or completely gone. She is in pain. Sis thinks she will have to put her down.

I tried to look up things online which might be helpful. Sis has not looked at them yet.

If this was not found by the one above it that is an indenting boo-boo.
Did I mention that Sis said that she has not had a good night's sleep in a month?
but it does touch on the importance of animals. Maybe triage -- helping the one who needs help most first? Have still to read this one.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
well our huskey did well with couple of tylenol when she really was in pain but it starting ahowing that it she was getting less and less relief toward the end.. she couldnt hold her bladder anymore and when she was outside she would dig a hole in the dirt to lay in which meant that she had to have a shower almost every week because of the leakin bladder all the time. and yes we tried the diapers which on stayed on for 5 mins. she just had some many things wrong with her that her body could not handle anymore. our minds are at peace knowing now that she is not in anymore pain.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
to both of you. I don't completely rule out the pastor's being mistaken. Consider the account of Balaam's donkey talking with him.Dr. Cuddy had an interesting take on communicating with animals. He commented that he could distinguish the meaning of some animal sounds and thought that Eve was able to understand the snake.
http://www.newswithviews.com/Cuddy/dennis141.htm
Sis says thanks but the dog is not gone yet. She tried oils today. Ever hear of Rife? I think the address is http://rife.org/ . Used ones for infection and joints. The dog had ear infection before which did not go away with first treatment. Maybe this time the infection hung on again? The last one was in May or June. She had it more than a month. She thinks they should have had the dog back to be sure the infection was gone. She just asked whether that infection really is gone.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
ty bookfox for your kind thoughts and I do believe our Dakota dog is out running in the wilds with the wolves.. she was a good dog and a good companion with the whole family and we all have memories of her being parts of our lives.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
I think your pastor has an outdated view of animals. It wasn't that long ago that people held the belief that animals couldn't feel pain or had family ties or other relationships, which we now know to be untrue.
Personally, I believe animals have an afterlife the same as humans.I think Matt. 10:29 verifies this "Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care" The Bible is full of verses about taking proper care of animals, both domestic and as part of the environment.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
so much. 
Sometimes I have been online when I should have been giving the dog attention. Sis pointed out that the dog is on borrowed time and that soon I won't be able to give her attention or words to that effect.
As far as I understand things dogs and other beasts do not live on beyond physical death as we humans do; so, putting an animal down to spare it pain is really ending its existence entirely to spare it pain. So your kind-hearted vet is giving wrong information to offer comfort. I recall asking one of our pastors about it and his reply was that they really don't live on even though one might think they would given their strong personalities.
I would like to think they went to heaven. Don't get me wrong about that. But what is not is not.
I might tell Sis that you extend your sympathies. She and brother are upstairs with dog watching TV now. I teased Sis that her Basset should drive truck like the one in the commercial some time back. She said something like No!
About time for me to head up there too or else attack the lawn which I should have mowed already.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
Wow, that's an exceptional vet! I'm glad there's doctors like that out there, who realize how hard that event is & does what they can for the pet's humans.

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
it sure is hard to put a lovly pen companion down but than you cant bear to see them suffering so.. My daughter and granddaughter had to put their white seribian husky down for the same disease.. but dont wait much longer as it was to the point that the dear dog was bleeding internally. we found a vet who comes to the home and does the whole ceremony. the woman vet was so nice and comforting to the family and did not rush giving that final shot as my granddaughter was taking it really hard! she put the dog to sleep first still letting the family know she is still alive and to do their final farewell gestures.. she made a paw print and snip some hair from the dog and incased them for keepsake.. she also takes the dog back to be cremated and than brings the ashes to the house.. really was a beautiful departing. she also has a page that all family and friends could go to in expressing their last goodbye.. this is a vet group that is in many states..

Re: Off Work & Sick Dog
Oh no, my sympathies to your sister. It's always so hard to lose a pet & making that decision takes a lot of courage. Poor doggy.

Pro-Life Idea: A Person's ... how small. + ...
Pro-Life Idea:
I thought of part of a classic poem or story, the line, "A person's a person no matter how small." Maybe that is short enough to use on signs or shirts?
+
June has a number of anniversaries for me or my relatives. My parents as well as Mom's parents married in June. Mom died on or near both of those anniversaries in June. Dad died in June. My time at DMLC ended with June Night or something like that. (They changed their schedule to agree with NWC's some time after that.) My 9th anniversary at this site was in June, June 23rd.
Something new: I am facing Grimsweeper in chess for the first time in a tournament going on now. Do I think I will win? Not likely. I will pleased if I do not lose both games.
I still have had no apparent success getting a tournament going with all the western chess variants in it.
We have been getting plenty of rain in Wisconsin. I hear that west or south of Watertown they got more. On the other hand I think I prefer this to the fires I hear of in places like New Mexico.
I learned that Startpage/Ixquick is working on private e-mail, something to be called StartMail.

♩Will Theater Survive ♫ the Death of Film ??
- How many of you out there have a local situation like this?
- How many wish to help something old survive but do not know any way?
(I am not asking anyone to help here with the possible exception of those who have a strong connection to Wisconsin. If you have such a connection whether or not to help is your call. I have not offered any help yet but think that I will promise some. The counts I just saw were 449 backers promising $56,349 toward the $70,000 goal with the deadline of Tuesday May 7, 3:45pm EDT. I might not need to promise anything to keep it alive.)
Our local theater, the Towne Cinema in Watertown, Wisconsin is in danger of closing because they are being forced to move away from film. The notice in the window where I had my haircut touched up brought that sharply to my attention.
Someone found a way to use a website to make giving to keep it afloat easier. I noticed other places mentioned which needed help too when I looked at that website.

Recent Goings-On Around October 7, 2012
The last meeting of the Rock River Patriots was interesting.
klaashaas is doing me the courtesy of playing me a number of handicap Go 19x19 games to determine my rating. He told me that he is a 3 kyu by European standards.
We already played one game at five stones. He told me that I should play at full strength and that if I won it I was at least 8 kyu. He resigned #7544914; so, I am apparently at least 8 kyu in strength (at least if playing here at Goldtoken is equivalent to playing over the board in tournaments which is a questionable claim in my opinion).
He gave me a link about comparing playing strength designations around the globe with #7544914 move #192 -- http://senseis.xmp.net/?RankWorldwideComparison. To my surprise he told me that the Japanese ranking was weaker than the European ranking.
Then he surprised me by extending me a challenge to a four-stone game -- #7779283 -- after resigning the five-stone game.
Here is how I am showing it at the top of its Game notes to remind me right away which game it is
4-STONE_GAME
~~ 4-STONE_GAME ~~
I asked for today off to go to an event only to look at the notice about it after getting home and then to note that it is on October 14th, 2012 rather than today, October 7th.
Is that evidence that I needed a day off anyway?
A nearby congregation is having a farewell dinner for its pastor later today.
Still being scheduled for work 8 + (10 x 6) weekly.

Wisconsin Event 9.15.2012, New Vieira Book, ...
The Rock River Patriots and the WI 9/12 Project are hosting an event in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. The speakers are
It is approaching local midnight here (11:38 PM). Around last midnight I checked whether Dr. Vieira had posted anything new at NWV. He had--on September 4th. I am so current. He requests letters of interest for his new great work about the Militia, The Sword and Sovereignty: The Constitutional Principles of “the Militia of the several States”.
Devvy Kidd posted on 9/11.

Work is keeping me fairly busy. We are working seven days a week with eight-hour shifts Sundays and ten-hour shifts the other days. I asked and got Saturday off to go the the event.
We got rain today. I know. Very exciting.

David Barton has helped bring much to light, but because of his apparent muddying of the waters about distinctions between Christianity and other faiths (Brannon Howse's commentary in Worldview Weekend if I recall.) I maybe ought to have classified him as a Grey (Gray?) Knight.
Another scholar of whom I recently read to the "Annie Oakley of the Airwaves", Laurie Roth, is Kris Anne Hall. I hunted for her with a Search Engine using the term roots of liberty and then went back and found the article in which I first read of her. I give the links in this order: the article, her link in that article, and the link about her from the search engine search. In that search I came across something by Rev. Opitz who has had articles in The Freeman: Ideas On Liberty which I think is published by FEE.

Re: Two More White Knights: William Federer & Davi
They have David Barton on TBN and I am just amazed at the things I have learned from listening... I would like to have the whole set saved for my grandchildren when they grow up. Thats the only way they would get the real education of our heritage....The last one I heard, he was talking about how blacks were always with many of the white ppl helping them in wars, or holding offices way back them, they were Christians.. David said that is why they dont put them in our textbooks today, because they dont want to talk about the Christians.. but he gave the whole 1/2 hour so much info on the black man and what he had done that most of us will never know..love the info u put up.

UPDATE *Wednesday, July 18, 2012*
I deemed their being down bad news.
Both of them were trying to implement Dr. Vieira's advice. Dr. Vieira's latest three-part article proclaims that the situation is indeed dire here in the USA. He points to preparations for the police state to clamp down. Below are links to his Facebook link and to that three-part article, below them one to the organization to which he gave those speeches, and below that one to Dr. Fekete's website.
Edwin Vieira, Jr.'s Facebook page and his latest articles

Retired Professor Fekete has also spoken to the above group. I thought it impressive that he could critique ancient Egyptian monetary practices (if I attribute that to the right person).
Timothy Baldwin, lawyer and son of Chuck Baldwin, listed some historical sources he thought useful in one of his articles at NewsWithViews. I saw it a while back but did not find it just now.

- http://www.claytoncramer.com/index.html I think that I found this one while looking for sources about the old militia laws to which Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr. referred. For whatever reason no link to this site was included on the Committees of Safety and/or Sovereign State Depository site(s) when I checked.
- Both http://www.committeesofsafety.org/ and http://sovereignstatedepository.com/ seemed no longer to be active, but I was able to find both archived at the Internet Archive site.

A Scholar's Summary of Edwin Vieira, Jr.'s 2-Volume Pieces of Eight
http://mises.org/books/rozeff_us_constitution_and_money.pdf is the link. I was checking to see whether or not Google Books had the earlier version of his book available even though he had given it into the public domain years ago and whether they knew that he had put it into the public domain.
I think that I came across the fact that this had been written but might not have saved the URL before. Here it is.

The Bible On Trial: Beyond A Reasonable Doubt -- hosted by Craig Parton, Esq.
I saw part of this on the NRB Network because I left the TV on and woke at the right time. Years ago Craig Parton spoke in Wisconsin and allowed me to videotape his presentation Defending The Biblical Gospel. I think that this might be the latest version of that presentation, but I have not asked him.
I think that you can watch some of it free online. If they broadcast, cablecast, or satellite-cast it again you might be able to watch if free that way.

Fixed Point Foundation Hour. WorldView Weekend. Bernard von NotHaus Wrongly Convicted.
I came across a program within the last few months -- the Fixed Point Foundation Hour -- which has debates. One of them was between Richard Dawkins and John Lennox if I recall correctly. I think that last night's (March 28, 2011) was between Larry Taunton and Christopher Hitchens.
I also caught Worldview Weekend yesterday.
On the meaning-and-money front Bernard von Nothaus was recently convicted in federal court in North Carolina. I thought that he should have been acquitted. I still do not understand how the prosecuting attorney could make the arguments she did. I think that they are claiming the right to treat the meaning of the word "dollar" like silly putty which they can bend any way they wish rather than as having the unchangeable meaning of a silver coin containing three hundred seventy-one and one quarter grains Troy of silver and having its value from the silver contained in it.
is part of the Constitution relevant to the coinage issue.
If Edwin Vieira, Jr. is right about the meaning of "regulate the Value thereof" they are supposed to declare the value of coins based on how much gold or silver the coins contain.
http://www.itulip.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-12011.html
I have read some of Veiera's articles and understood the above. Has Anne M. Tompkins?
Are the federal folks claiming the right not to fulfill their duty to put out coins of the proper weight and fineness while holding the States to the prohibition against their minting coin? Should not those be understood as reciprocal, that is, that the States may not mint coin so long as the federal government fulfills its duty to mint coin according to the right standard and in enough quantity?
How do they dare to add the word exclusive? Granting the power of coinage to Congress and forbidding it to the States does not forbid private mints from making coin, does it?
Maybe even worse she called von NotHaus a "unique terrorist". It would be laughable if it were not so serious.

- declare that the coin was worth so many dollars.
- In the case of a coin containing gold they should
- determine how much gold is in the coin and then
- apply the ratio between the prices of gold and silver to how how much silver the gold is worth and
- do as for a silver coin with that much silver in it.

RIP Joan Veon, Griffin on the War on Terrorism, Notable Creationist Speaker
A while back while looking at the articles listed at NewsWithViews I noticed that the researcher Joan Veon had died. Her column was called "Connecting The Dots". I met her once at an event, something I cannot truly say about many of the freedom fighters. She was a certified financial planner who traveled to UN events at her own expense to report on them to keep us informed. She once wrote that capitalism was an -ism. She will be missed.
While hunting for Freedom Force International's website I found G. Edward Griffin's article explaining why talking about a war on terrorism was nonsense. G. Edward Griffin -- A Second Look At The War On Terrorism
A notable speaker, Dr. Jerry Bergman, will be in the Milwaukee area tomorrow, March 8, 2011, at the behest of the Creation Science Society of Milwaukee to deliver a speech titled "The Dark Side of Charles Darwin." He also has given a speech titled "Slaughter of the Dissidents." Cornerstone TV has his speech and many others available to read in PDF.

Pieces Of Eight Reprint Announced December 1, 2010
We have another chance to get hold of his two-volume book, Pieces of Eight: The Monetary Powers and Disabilities of the United States Constitution because of "the generous support of James Turk and the GoldMoney Foundation". I have held it in my hands. It seemed very well made--just as he wrote.
Reading this book is said not to be easy, but it should be worth the effort if we also reclaim right meaning and revitalize the institution of the militia referred to in the Constitution. One way the militia is important is to ward off tyrants posing as enforcers of law like some of the private security firms acting as though they were police. I recently read of this on the WI4RonPaul group.

Vieira's Speeches at Committees Of Safety Website
Edwin Vieira, Jr. considers revitalization of the institution of the Militia critical to retaining our freedom in the United States pointing out that the Constitution calls the Militia essential and claims that the Constitution requires each State to maintain a Militia in perpetuity. I call this an implicit command.
Surprisingly, another lawyer, Mat Staver who founded Liberty Counsel, denied this on the radio when I called in and asked whether the Constitution required each State to have a Militia. I still do not understand that and have not yet written to him to request an explanation. I think that two such authorities on the law should not disagree about what the law is.
The website of the Committees of Safety has speeches by Edwin Vieira under security. Walter Reddy founded the Committees of Safety.

Re: Vieira's Speeches at Committees Of Safety Webs
I'll answer this post by saying that I don't disagree with anything you've said except perhaps your desire to make everything a constitutional issue. The constitution has been killed by civil war. The division of powers was destroyed when the president became a military dictator and stomped out those who thought that divison of powers was their right.
these days congress doesn't even read a full bill in session much less the full three constituionally required times ... that brings into question any laws passed under such regime. Let me simply end with a Jefferson quote that I think might fit here:
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
maybe ... it's time.

Re: Vieira's Speeches at Committees Of Safety Webs
I realize that asking you to read all of Vieira's articles on NewsWithViews might be considered too big a request; so, I give you my sense of them or point to website(s) which give(s) an explanation.
If I recall correctly WVCY had Larry Pratt on as a guest shortly after I went off on Mat Staver on national radio (Not my most Vulcan moment!) for failing my expectations of his scholarship. Pratt referred to the context or the understanding back then. Likely he agrees with Vieira. I have not read Pratt's book on the Militia to be sure.
Why is a Militia needed? The Framers (as do I) held to the belief that Man is basically evil, not inherently good or neutral. So, the challenge is to come up with a form of government which will restrain that evil. Concentrated power often proves too much of a temptation; so, they sought to divide power and to have one concentration of power work against other concentrations of power. The Founding Fathers did not trust a Standing Military. I think that is the reason that an Army needed to be funded every two years. Also, I read that they were very reluctant to confer the title of admiral on anyone.
The Founding Fathers rested their expectation of keeping any sort of good government on the virtue of the People in general. If the People are to be the rulers then they must themselves have the Power of the Sword. The Militia is how that was done in the Original Thirteen Colonies/States.
See Clayton Cramer's website as well as the one I mention below.
Vieira looks at the context and states that the Founders assumed the permanence of the Militia. (I suspect that is why they did not spell it out better for us, their Dullard Posterity.) So, the Constitution itself proclaims that the Militia is necessary (or needed if you want a plainer word) without making it mace-in-the-face blunt that each State in the Union is required forever to maintain its own Militia (so long as the Constitution is not amended to remove that requirement).
Now that you have already put up with me too long would you rather read me or someone more scholarly? I could continue to try to put others' essays into my own words. The website ReclaimingTheConstitution gives some explanation. I shall be happy to point you to others and/or to keep explaining.
If I recall correctly WVCY had Larry Pratt on as a guest shortly after I went off on Mat Staver on national radio (Not my most Vulcan moment!) for failing my expectations of his scholarship. Pratt referred to the context or the understanding back then. Likely he agrees with Vieira. I have not read Pratt's book on the Militia to be sure.
Why is a Militia needed? The Framers (as do I) held to the belief that Man is basically evil, not inherently good or neutral. So, the challenge is to come up with a form of government which will restrain that evil. Concentrated power often proves too much of a temptation; so, they sought to divide power and to have one concentration of power work against other concentrations of power. The Founding Fathers did not trust a Standing Military. I think that is the reason that an Army needed to be funded every two years. Also, I read that they were very reluctant to confer the title of admiral on anyone.
The Founding Fathers rested their expectation of keeping any sort of good government on the virtue of the People in general. If the People are to be the rulers then they must themselves have the Power of the Sword. The Militia is how that was done in the Original Thirteen Colonies/States.

Re: Vieira's Speeches at Committees Of Safety Webs
the thing wrong with the law is the men who write and enforce it. The only true law is that of God.
To play devil's advocate for a moment: "what is necessary is required" Why is a militia necessary? we have a standing military body sworn to protect the country.

Re: Vieira's Speeches at Committees Of Safety Webs
I have read a fair number of Vieira's articles. His reasoning seems to be that what is necessary is required. Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel also said that States were not required by the Constitution to maintain a Militia. Someone is wrong. Juris Doctors are supposed to be right about the law.

Re: Vieira's Speeches at Committees Of Safety Webs
there is no constitutional requirement. Each state has a right to implement, instruct, and utilize its own militia but there is NO REQUIREMENT.
I personally think that state militias are great but we are in the minority

National ID Card by Stealth -- Again!
Yesterday I got around to reading a message (dated April 1st) from Ron Paul at his Campaign for Liberty which told me that a provision to include a national ID card has been put into the "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" bill if I have its title right. The message included a link to use to protest this.

Re: Pieces of Eight Reprint Subscription Deadline
He posted my check back to me September 3 if I have the date right. I did not find it in the mail. On the other hand I heard him say in a speech on Vimeo that his book would be coming out on Compact Disc. Too bad not enough folks ordered his book!

Re: Pieces of Eight Reprint Subscription Deadline
I realize that it is too late to try to help get it printed. I think that I should have posted that quotation with the original post. I added it belatedly. I sent a check which has not been returned. I take that to mean that the printing is on but not finished to his satisfaction yet. Getting the check back would have been bad news.
for reading my blog and for the comment.

Re: Pieces of Eight Reprint Subscription Deadline
Too late for anyone to prepay to try to get the reprint done as the deadline was almost 3 months ago. ;-)

Unrated Test & Practice Xiphiastrey Game Done 21 Jun 2009 at 3:41AM Central Daylight Time
#5227809 finished earlier this morning. My opponent, ypercube, helped me to try out some things in Xiphias-variants. , ypercube.
This game shows that
In keeping with Number 1 I suggest that Fired Rockets be considered a combination of Rocket(s) & Force Field(s). Maybe they are a one-planet force explosion?
Self-destructs already count as though they are a combination of an Alien and a number of Force Fields to match the Alien's level. Might they actually be Rockets and Force Fields triggered by their own Alien?
Although Unrated Games might not show up in one's game total they do show up in the list of finished games. At least this one shows up at the top of my list of completed Xiphiastrey games.
Now why not introduce more powerful Bombs or Bomb-like things like a triggerable self-detonation which is invisible like a Bomb? We could have three levels of such horrors like the three levels of self-destruction now available. Also such Area Bombs or Invisible & Sleeping Self-Destructs could convert all the planets affected into Neutral Meteors which is even more destructive than a normal self-destruct which leaves ownership intact. How would this affect Force Fields? One could have the Level 3 Effect Destroy all Force Fields it touches.
, ypercube.This game shows that
- Rockets and Force Fields are not compatible, (In fact a Rocket popping up under a Force Field is the only current way of which I know to destroy a Force Field.)
- a Rocket on a Planet first excludes a Bomb from placement there but does not detonate a Bomb when it pops up on a Planet which already has a Bomb on it -- order of placement matters! ,
- a Force Field and a Bomb can be on the same Planet. I think that order of placement does not matter.
