The Importance of Planning 1
Friday, May 10th, 2013Author Allen Currie Most articles focus, with morbid fascination, on the awful situation today. We all know that crisis is unavoidable now. I prefer to look at where this might naturally lead. The End Of The World As We Know It (TEOTWAWKI) will undoubtedly change the life of anyone alive today more than any life [...]
Until Officially Denied
Friday, May 10th, 2013Author Tex Norton On May 5, 2013, POTUS Obama gave the Commencement Speech to the graduating seniors at Ohio State University. During that speech, he said: “Unfortunately, you’ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that’s at the root of all our problems. Some of [...]
China’s Ghost Cities and WWIII
Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013Author Michael Rough When the Market Crashes the US Goes to War The Wall Street commodities and stock bubble is about to pop, North Korea is posturing, and China has been building residential infrastructure like mad over the last 7 years.

The Medical Appointment
Friday, February 1st, 2013Author Tony De Maio I went to the doctor last week.
