I wish I could find that whole interview. I did look, but probably not hard enough.

I have to agree. Something isn’t right about it all.

Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And Auntie DePat’s requests:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

REPENT
3. (Theol.) Defn: To be sorry for sin as morally evil, and to seek forgiveness;
to cease to love and practice sin.
Except ye repent, ye shall likewise perish. Luke xiii. 3.

For seemingly forever, I’ve thought that “repent” means to turn away from sinning.  A few days ago, following up on the thought of man’s inability to stop sinning, I looked to Strong’s Greek Concordance to find the meaning of the Greek word translated as “repent”.  I found the Greek word translated as “repent” actually meant more like “to change your mind or your way of thinking” rather than the action of turning away from sin.

Strong’s Concordance 3340 metanoeó
metanoeó: to change one’s mind or purpose
Original Word: μετανοέω
Part of Speech: Ver
Transliteration: metanoeó
Phonetic Spelling: (met-an-o-eh’-o)
Definition: to change one’s mind or purpose
Usage: I repent, change my mind, change the inner man (particularly with reference to acceptance of the will of God), repent.


REPENT

Many, perhaps most, understand the term repent to mean “to turn from sin.” Regretting sin and turning from it are related to repentance, but are not the precise meaning of the word. In the Bible, the word repent means “to change one’s mind.” The Bible also tells us that true repentance will result in a change of actions (Luke 3:8–14; Acts 3:19). In summarizing his ministry, Paul declares, “I preached that they should repent and turn to God and demonstrate their repentance by their deeds” (Acts 26:20). The short biblical definition of repentance is “a change of mind that results in a change of action.”

What, then, is the connection between repentance and salvation? The book of Acts especially focuses on repentance in regard to salvation (Acts 2:38; 3:19; 11:18; 17:30; 20:21; 26:20). To repent, concerning salvation, is to change your mind regarding sin and Jesus Christ. In Peter’s sermon on the day of Pentecost (Acts chapter 2), he concludes with a call for the people to repent (Acts 2:38). Repent from what? Peter calls the people who rejected Jesus (Acts 2:36) to change their minds about that sin and to change their minds about Christ Himself, recognizing that He is indeed “Lord and Christ” (Acts 2:36). Peter calls the people to change their minds, to abhor their past rejection of Christ, and to embrace faith in Him as their Messiah and Savior.

Repentance involves recognizing that you have thought wrongly in the past and determining to think rightly in the future. The repentant person has “second thoughts” about the mindset he formerly embraced. There is a change of disposition and a new way of thinking about God, about sin, about holiness, and about doing God’s will. True repentance is prompted by “godly sorrow,” and it “leads to salvation” (2 Corinthians 7:10).

Repentance and faith can be understood as two sides of the same coin. It is impossible to place your faith in Jesus Christ as the Savior without first changing your mind about your sin and about who Jesus is and what He has done. Whether it is repentance from willful rejection or repentance from ignorance or disinterest, it is a change of mind. Biblical repentance, in relation to salvation, is changing your mind from rejection of Christ to faith in Christ.

Repentance is not a work we do to earn salvation. No one can repent and come to God unless God pulls that person to Himself (John 6:44). Repentance is something God gives—it is only possible because of His grace (Acts 5:31; 11:18). No one can repent unless God grants repentance. All of salvation, including repentance and faith, is a result of God drawing us, opening our eyes, and changing our hearts. God’s longsuffering leads us to repentance (2 Peter 3:9), as does His kindness (Romans 2:4).

While repentance is not a work that earns salvation, repentance unto salvation does result in works. It is impossible to truly change your mind without changing your actions in some way. In the Bible, repentance results in a change in behavior. That is why John the Baptist called people to “produce fruit in keeping with repentance” (Matthew 3:8). A person who has truly repented of sin and exercised faith in Christ will give evidence of a changed life (2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 5:19–23; James 2:14–26).

To see what repentance looks like in real life, turn to the story of Zacchaeus. Here was a man who cheated and stole and lived lavishly on his ill-gotten gains—until he met Jesus. At that point he had a radical change of mind: “Look, Lord!” said Zacchaeus. “Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount” (Luke 19:8). Jesus happily proclaimed that salvation had come to Zacchaeus’s house, and that even the tax collector was now “a son of Abraham” (verse 9)—a reference to Zacchaeus’s faith. The cheat became a philanthropist; the thief made restitution. That’s repentance, coupled with faith in Christ.

Repentance, properly defined, is necessary for salvation. Biblical repentance is changing your mind about your sin—no longer is sin something to toy with; it is something to be forsaken as you “flee from the coming wrath” (Matthew 3:7). It is also changing your mind about Jesus Christ—no longer is He to be mocked, discounted, or ignored; He is the Savior to be clung to; He is the Lord to be worshiped and adored.

2024·08·03 Joe Biden Didn’t Win Daily Thread

What is it that feeds our battle, yet starves our victory?

January 6 Tapes Reminder

After the first release, we were supposed to get more, every week.

As far as I know it hasn’t happened.

Speaker Johnson, please follow through!

A Caution

Just remember…we might replace the RINO candidates. (Or we might not. The record is mixed even though there is more MAGA than there used to be.) But that will make no difference in the long run if the party officials, basically the Rhonna McDaniels (or however that’s spelled–I suspect it’s RINO), don’t get replaced.

State party chairs, vice chairs, secretaries and so on, and the same at county levels, have huge influence on who ultimately gets nominated, and if these party wheelhorses are RINOs, they will work tirelessly to put their own pukey people on the ballot. In fact I’d not be surprised if some of our “MAGA” candidates are in fact, RINO plants, encouraged to run by the RINO party leadership when they realized that Lyn Cheney (and her ilk) were hopelessly compromised as effective candidates. The best way for them to deal with the opposition, of course, is to run it themselves.

Running good candidates is only HALF of the battle!

Booting a RINO

I’ve spent the last couple of years pounding home the message that RINO McDaniels was a symptom of a problem…a party shot through with RINO officials. In this instance it was the hundred or so members of the RNC who gleefully voted for her again, and again, and again.

Well I got to help take one of those hundred people down, as told here: https://www.theqtree.com/2024/04/07/i-aim-to-raise-a-ruckus/. What’s even better is that oxygen thief was apparently boiling mad at how poorly she did in the vote (according to a MAGA candidate for a county office I spoke to on Tuesday night). Apparently she felt entitled to her office no matter what the rubes thing…and that attitude turns people into RINOs.

Judging from the number of comments received few noticed or cared about the post, but nonetheless I noticed a pattern: Hardly anyone who regularly puts forth “devolution” or “this is all a movie” theories (or any other variant of the idea that Trump and/or his allies are really in charge) seemed to care about it. I described successful action against the enemy and they didn’t care.

I submit that that is the desired effect of such ideas as devolution…to get people on our side not to care, not to participate, not to fight, because they believe someone else will do it for them. “Nothing can stop what is coming?” Great! I don’t have to lift a finger, just be ready to microwave some popcorn!

If any of you really are thinking like this, you might as well be controlled opposition. You’re doing exactly what the other side wants you to do, sitting on your hands waiting for deliverance by deus ex machina.

Biden Gives Us Too Much Credit

…we can move on to the next one.

Apparently Biden (or his puppeteer) has decided we’re to blame for all of the fail in the United States today.

Sorry to disappoint you Joe (or whoever), but you managed to do that all on your own; not only that, you wouldn’t let us NOT give you the chance because you insisted on cheating your way into power.

Yep, you-all are incompetent, and so proud of it you expect our applause for your sincerity. Fuck that!!

It wouldn’t be so bad, but you insist that everyone else have to share in your misery. Nope, can’t have anyone get out from under it. Somehow your grand vision only works if every single other person on earth is forced to go along. So much as ONE PERSON not going along is enough to make it all fail, apparently.

In engineering school we’re taught that a design that has seven to eight billion single points of failure…sucks.

Actually, we weren’t taught that. Because it would never have occurred to the professors to use such a ridiculous example.

Justice Must Be Done.

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Kamala Harris has a new nickname since she finally went west from DC to El Paso Texas: Westward Hoe.

Lawyer Appeasement Section

OK now for the fine print.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines,  here, with an addendum on 20191110.

We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.

And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

1. No food fights
2. No running with scissors.
3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
4. Zeroth rule of gun safety: Don’t let the government get your guns.
5. Rule one of gun safety: The gun is always loaded.
5a. If you actually want the gun to be loaded, like because you’re checking out a bump in the night, then it’s empty.
6. Rule two of gun safety: Never point the gun at anything you’re not willing to destroy.
7. Rule three: Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire.
8. Rule the fourth: Be sure of your target and what is behind it.

(Hmm a few extras seem to have crept in.)

Spot Prices

All prices are Kitco Ask, 3PM MT Friday (at that time the markets close for the weekend). (Note: most media quotes are for the bid…the price paid by the market makers, not the ask, which is what they will sell at. I figure the ask is more relevant to people like us who wish we could afford to buy these things. In the case of gold the difference is usually about a dollar, for the PGMs the spread is much wider.)

Last Week:

Gold $2,387.10
Silver $28.00
Platinum $948.00
Palladium $926.00
Rhodium $4,925.00

This week, markets closed at 3PM Mountain Time Friday for the weekend.

Gold $2,444.10
Silver $28.66
Platinum $966.00
Palladium $916.00
Rhodium $4,925.00

Friday morning gold was well into the 2460s which as far as I know was a record. Silver has basically gone back to sucking more than it should.

The SteveInCO Federal Reserve Note Suckage Index (FRNSI) stands at 117.244-. (This index is the ratio between the price of gold today, versus the value of the dollar defined as dollars per ounce when we had the gold standard, minus 1 (so that an index of 0 means the dollar is at its original value and doesn’t suck at all). I use that clumsy phrasing because the dollar was defined as a certain amount of gold, such that an ounce of gold was $20.67. It’s a subtle distinction. One ounce of gold wasn’t worth $20.67 back then, it was $20.67.)

In light of the above, let me add the following. From 1837 through 1933, 25.8 grains of .900 fine gold was a dollar (by definition of the dollar). Thus a one dollar gold coin should have weighed that much (and a 20 dollar coin would weigh 516 grains). This works out to 23 2/9ths grains of pure gold, the rest being “crud.” (And a 20 dollar coin had 464 4/9ths grains of pure gold in it, similarly the rest being “crud”). “Crud” of course is my highly technical term for the stuff they add to the alloy, however it could be as much as five percentage points silver before 1873 (and one percentage point after) with the rest being copper. Not truly crud, it’s not as if it was zinc or something. Who would make coins out of zinc?

The HHS Gave the “Go-Ahead” to Use an H5N1″Vaccine”— But the AMA Just Issued New CPT Codes for an H5N8 “Vaccine”

The above image is of mass vaccination against smallpox in Paris in 1905. (Courtesy, Getty Images.)

Today’s post will trace what ** may be ** a “sleight-of-hand” that started out with Xavier Becerra, the Secretary of the United States government Department of Health and Human Services, giving the “Go-Ahead” for the use of the H5N1 Avian Influenza “vaccine”, AUDENZ, in anticipation of a potential “bird flu pandemic” in the United States; but, which since has been “transformed” into the American Medical Association just issuing new CPT codes for an Avian Influenza “vaccine” for a different strain, called H5N8. Meanwhile, the CDC / FDA / United States government, are all sending out warnings related to the H5N1 strain. Stay with Yours Truly, it gets even better — “Mais, mon Dieu!” — the twists and turns! This post is a kind of “snapshot” of the situation — it is an evolving issue.

For purposes of today’s post, the trail begins here: www.ernst.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/fowl_play_squeal.pdf, the letter that Sen. Jodi Ernst (R-Iowa) sent to USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack on 14 February 2024. In this letter, Sen. Ernst demands answers regarding United States government funding of what appears to be Gain-of-Function research experiments on Avian Influenza viruses; which experiments involve a scientist linked to the Chinese Communist Party. Yours Truly can find to date, no response from Sec. Vilsack to Sen. Ernst. A screenshot of Page 1 of her letter is below:

Yours Truly now turns to this: www.aha.org/news/headline/2024-07-23-hhs-broadens-emergency-declaration-facilitate-response-bird-flu-other-viruses-pandemic-potential, “HHS broadens emergency declaration to facilitate response to bird flu, other viruses with pandemic potential”, dated 23 July 2024, which “expanded” the 2013 amendment to the Federal Food, Drugs, and Cosmetics Act to now include “other viruses” that may have “pandemic potential.” The document, from HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, specifically mentions three types of Avian Influenza strains: H1N1 (from 2009); H7N9 (from the 2013 amendment);, and H5N1 (from the 24 March 2024 USDA statement regarding H5N1 infections in dairy cows in Kansas and in Texas.) https://public-inspection.federalregister.com/2024-16247.pdf. Below is a screenshot from the AHA (American Hospital Association) press release:

And, for reference, here is the Congressional Research Service Legal Sidebar document related to what the HHS Secretary can “declare” under the PREP Act (including removing liability options), updated 21 July 2023: https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB10730, “The PREP Act and COVID-19, Part 2: The PREP Act Declaration for COVID-19 Countermeasures.”

This was followed by a tweet from Robert Kennedy, Jr.: https://twitter.com/RobertKennedyJr/status/1816905031653675473, a screenshot of which follows:

Meanwhile, the USDA had already issued a press release regarding how dairy farmers can apply to receive expanded livestock assistance to compensate for milk production lost due to their cows infected with H5N1: www.usda.gov/media/press-releases/2024/06/27/usda-begin-accepting-applications-expanded-emergency-livestock, “USDA to Begin Accepting Applications for Expanded Emergency Livestock Assistance Program to Help Dairy Producers Offset Milk Loss Due to H5N1”, dated 27 June 2024.

Which was followed, in turn, by a CDC release regarding the government’s response to the current H5N1 Avian Influenza situation: www,cdc,gov/bird-flu/spotlights/h5n1-response-07262024.html; a screenshot from the release is below:

So, it would appear that the HHS gave the “go-ahead” for a kind of “EUA” regarding the use of the protein-subunit H5N1 “vaccine”, AUDENZ (a supply is already in the National Vaccine Stockpile); and, for the increased production of this “vaccine.” What follows is a “closer look” at AUDENZ. Yours Truly will begin with the FDA-issued Fact Sheet for healthcare providers for this “vaccine”: www.fda.gov/media/135020/download; three screenshots from the document are below. The first screenshot shows clearly that there was no Placebo group (Control/saline group) in at least two clinical trials for AUDENZ. The second screenshot shows clearly that no Toxicology studies were performed for AUDENZ. The third screenshot is Page 10 of the Fact Sheet.

Note this language in the first screenshot: “In both Studies 1 and 2, all SAEs appeared unrelated to study treatment.” This indicates at least two important details: One, that Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) did occur during at least two clinical trials of AUDENZ; and, Two, that these Serious Adverse Events were not considered to be related to the clinical trials for AUDENZ. This is the same type of language that Pfizer-BioNTech used regarding Serious Adverse Events that occurred during the (shortened and data-compromised) clinical trials for the company’s “flagship” COVID-19 modRNA “vaccine” BNT162b2. Note also that a “complete dose series” for AUDENZ is two separate doses of 0.5mL each, for all age groups age six months and up. AUDENZ uses an adjuvant (an ingredient that facilities the activities of the injectable) called MF59. MF59 is a squalene-based, oil-in-water adjuvant. The Safety Data Sheet for MF59 is here: https://file.medchemexpress.com/batch_PDF/HY-153206/MF59-SDS-MedChemExpress.pdf. The product is listed as “Not a hazardous product or mixture” in section 2.2 of this document. However, reading further down the same document, one finds all sorts of contradictory information in the sections on “First Aid Measures”, on “Handling and Storage”, on “Exposure Controls”, and more.

Note also the list of reported adverse events in section 6.2 of Page 10, above. These are same types of adverse events reactions to the Pfizer-BioNTech modRNA COVID-19 “vaccine”, BNT162b2, in the post-authorization report that this company gave to the FDA on 30 April 2021; and in reports to VAERS; and, which are listed within the FDA-issued Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers for the “2023-2024 Formula COVID-19 Vaccine” by Pfizer-BioNTech (www.phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/reissue_5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf; www.openvaers.com/; www.fda.gov/media/167211/download?attachment. Very troubling are the listings in section 6.2 of Page 10 above in the AUDENZ fact sheet for “convulsions”; “demyelination”; “encephalitis”; and, “Guillain-Barre’ syndrome.”

A blog post by Dr. Jessica Rose, PhD, on 27 June 2024, presents a summary of clinical trial for AUDENZ (NCT02839440), in which she proves that the fatality rate is 1/200 chances for AUDENZ: https://jessicar.substack.com/p/1200-chance-of-death-in-context-of, “1/200 chance of death in context of new bird flu injection – 5 times higher than placebo according to clinical trial.” NCT02839440 did have a Placebo control group, (Scroll down the blog post to the discussion of this clinical trial for AUDENZ.)

To date, Yours Truly can find no exact set of CPT Codes for AUDENZ. The closest item found is here: www.hhs.gov/guidance/document/flu-shot-coding-0; the listing is “Q2039 Influenza virus vaccination otherwise specified.”

AUDENZ is produced by CSL Seqirus, part of the much-larger CSL multinational drug company. Following is a JPG of the list of CSL offices and locations, sourced from: www.csl.com/:

The United States government awarded CSL Seqirus a contract to produce millions of doses of an Avian Influenza “vaccine” in May 2024: www.cslseqirus.us/news/csl-seqirus-announces-us-government-award-in-response-to-avian-influenza. The “vaccine” will be manufactured by the CSL Seqirus facility at Holly Springs, North Carolina. This facility was built in partnership with BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority), a department of the United States government. The Avian Influenza “vaccine” that this facility will manufacture is “cell-based”, as opposed to “egg-based”; with a six-month “turnaround” for production: www.csl.com/we-are-csl/our-business-and-products/csl-seqirus/csl-seqirus-manufacturing-technologies. Below are two images from the article related to this facility:

Note that whatever Avian Influenza cell-based “vaccine” from the CSL Seqirus facility at Holly Springs will use the MF59 adjuvant. (By the way, MF59 is trademarked by Novartis AG, which was acquired by CSL.)

So far, it appears that the H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza is the one that the United States government is focused upon. However, here’s where the trail veers to another path.

Please refer back to the American Hospital Association press release above in today’s post. Note this language: “The amendment now applies to pandemic influenza A viruses and others with pandemic potential, such as the current H5N1 strain of bird flu…” (Italics, Yours Truly) In Yours Truly’s opinion, this is “a hole big enough to drive a truck through” — or, perhaps, another strain of Avian Influenza.

The following article beings to “lift the curtain” on what ** may ** really be going on — which, again in Yours Truly’s opinion, appears to be a kind of “sleight-of-hand”: www.naturalnews.com/2024-07-26-fda-grant-eua-mrna-bird-flu-vaccines.html, “Pandemic 2.0 ready to go: FDA to grant emergency use authorization (EUA) to mRNA bird flu shots, just like what happened with COVID“, by Ethan Huff. And, “right out of the gate”, the article begins with this:

But, wasn’t the “upcoming potential bird flu pandemic” supposed to be the H5N1 strain that the government is warning about? Where does the H5N8 strain come in? According to Wikipedia, the H5N8 strain of Avian Influenza is “is typically not associated with humans.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza_A_virus_subtype_H5N8. Very few humans have contracted a case of H5N8; this virus strain predominates among wild birds. However, the mortality rate among wild birds infected with H5N8 is “at least 75%”, again according to the Wikipedia article above.

Now, turning to the American Medical Association’s issuing new CPT Codes for the use of an H5N8 “vaccine.” One media outlet that Yours Truly found has this: https://revcycleintelligence.com/news/ama-updates-cpt-code-set-for-avian-influenza-vaccines, dated 22 July 2024. Below is a screenshot from the article, with the new CPT codes:

Note that the American Medical Association owns the rights for the CPT codes. This means that the AMA gets a “royalty payment” every time a CPT code is used. The AMA notice regarding the CPT codes for H5N8 is here: www.ama-assn.org/press-center/press-releases/ama-announces-cpt-update-avian-influenza-vaccines, dated 19 July 2024. Below is a screenshot from the notice:

What’s going on here? The picture is, to say the least, somewhat “murky.” There are, however, a few potential clues. Among them is this: www.pennmedicine.org/news/news-releases/2024/may/penn-researchers-develop-experimental-mrna-avian-flu-vaccine, dated 23 May 2024. Note on the screenshot, below, from the article, the language regarding “a specific type of the H5N1 virus”; and, that animals other than wild birds were being used for the experiments:

Here is another clue, from 5 June 2024: www.idsociety.org/science-speaks-blog/u.s.-orders-4.8-million-doses-of-a-cell-based-adjuvanted-h5-vaccine-for-avian-flu-preparedness#/+/0/publishedDate_na_dt/desc/, by Daniel R. Lucey, MD, PhH, FIDSA. Below is a screenshot from this article:

Note the language regarding “pre-pandemic vaccine that is well-matched to the H5 of the currently circulating H5N1 strain,…” (bolding, Yours Truly)

A third clue is here: https://twitter.com/RenzTom/status/1816110256843264368; a screenshot of part of his tweet is below:

And, a fourth clue is here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05874713, a clinical trial that appears to be in the “wrapping-up” stages regarding testing an mRNA-based H5N8 “vaccine.” Below is a screenshot from the Clinical Trials webpage for this clinical trial:

Note the very low test subject enrollment (480 persons); the presence of the MF59 adjuvant in the H5N8 “vaccine” candidate used in the clinical trial; and, a “two-dose” series of “primary run” injections of the “vaccine” candidate, followed by a “booster shot” on Day 209 for the H5N8 “vaccine” candidate.

There are three other clinical trials of an H5N8 “vaccine” listed on the https://clinicaltrials.gov/ website: NCT02624219 (Completed); NCT05975840 (Active); and, NCT03014310 (Completed.) All of these clinical trials were/are Phase I or Phase I/II. None of them have a Placebo/saline control group. Each of them have fewer than 600 subjects (NCT02624219 had 275 test subjects.) Two of these three other clinical trials have the NIAID as the Sponsor.

What does all this mean? Is it possible that the current H5N1 “Avian Influenza infecting cattle, cows, and domesticated pets, in addition to poultry” situation, while it is indeed occurring, is also a sort of “Look, squirrel!” to distract from something that may be more dangerous?: from, perhaps, Gain-of-Function experiments on the H5N8 strain of the Avian Influenza (recall that this strain has a 75%+ mortality rate among the wild birds that it infects); plus, perhaps. the development of “vaccines” for this “perhaps-enhanced” H5N8 strain, which may include the millions of doses of an “Avian Influenza cell-based vaccine” that will be manufactured at the CSL Seqirus facility in North Carolina? In other words, “Pandemic 2.0”?

And now for the business portion of the post borrowed from Tuesday:

Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion. In that spirit, though, threats of violence real or hypothetical are out of bounds.

Fellow tree dweller the late Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And Auntie DePat’s requests:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

Luke 1:26-33

26In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28And he came to her and said, “Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you!” 29But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. 30And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 32He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end.”

47“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net which was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind; 48when it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into vessels but threw away the bad. 49So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous, 50and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth. 51“Have you understood all this?” They said to him, “Yes.” 52And he said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.” 53And when Jesus had finished these parables, he went away from there,
