VETERANS DAY morning headlines

MONDAY NOVEMBER 11 2013

The photo pictured here is an AP image from Jim Weber of 83-year-old Jim Brown, a veteran who served in both Vietnam and Korea.. That is what today means: Pride, honor, and service..

In 1919, Woodrow Wilson proclaimed today Armistice Day. After a few more ‘wars to end all wars,’ Congress changed Armistice to Veterans Day in 1954.. Since then, every November 11, we have stopped to memorialize veterans who are still living..

There is also some confusion, though, as many today have vigils and ceremonies for the dead .. however today is the day to thank and honor the living.
Thank you Veterans for service.. thank you for your sacrifice.. There is so much gratitude owed to you, it can never be completely fulfilled. The world is a better place because of your actions, and the United States is a better nation because of your honor..

The Veterans Day (and more) news roundup is as follows..

Veterans Day: Honor

On this Veterans Day, the New York TIMES examines those who were discharged “under conditions other than honorable” and so do not qualify as veterans under federal law.

Sexual assaults in the military up 48%..

The Philippines turns into hell on earth.. Some reports have said that the survivors of Haiyan have been said to be walking like zombies across the destroyed landscape, in search of food.. even more, food water, and medical supplies are dangerously short.

Reports claim that the destruction in the Philippines from Haiyan is ‘absolute bedlam’.. Red Cross workers are describing the horrendous scene on the ground that they are seeing.. Hundreds of thousands of people are displaced and one town of 40,000 people is called Guiuan is said to be largely destroyed.. Even more alarming, the BBC reports that the city of Baco n the Oriental Mindoro province is 80% under water.. that town has 35,000 people in it. I believe with numbers as harrowing as that, the death toll may rise substantially higher than 10,000..
We do know this: Body bags being rushed in.

There are some attempts for rescue victims from the storm still taking place.. Fear and starvation in the Philippines as food mobs are already attacking aid trucks..

The troubling situation with Haiyan is not over. There is Midweek trouble brewing for the Philppines as a new tropical system gets organized..

An expert debunks YouTube video that purports a microwave beam made Haiyan stronger.. It was none other than “Dutch Sinse” .. and he took to Facebook to defend his accusation of a manmade weather system..
Here is the Dutchsinse video in question..

292 PAGES TOO MUCH: ART BELL SHOWS HIS FRUSTRATION WITH SIRIUS XM EXECS ON BELLGAB

Ever since Art Bell quit DARK MATTER on Sirius XM, fans on Bellgab.com have taken to the popular message board to express their frustration with the sudden move..

Tonight, Bell expressed some frustration back..

After hundreds of pages of the thread, the now former radio show host wrote this in a response to someone asking him for information:

Thanks for asking, I am fine. Nothing much to say that I have not already said but good evening! However I will repeat, people here have no idea the intense talks that were going on from about 3 days after the show started about the stream drops, I do understand however how it seemed abrupt to the listener. Also, the deal we tried to make on Wed, two days after the show stopped was a very good one and after saying they took it very seriously they stopped communicating. I will say again, I think something else is going on. For those above who listened and did not like the show anyway, it should not even be a issue worth talking about unless you just like seeing a message from yourself.

A few more posts later, Bell unleashed regarding Sirius XM:

People keep saying “why don’t you try and work it out with Sirius/XM” We have been trying to do that from three days after the show started, we had confrence call after confrence call with them trying to get it worked out, there was a lot of talk but no fix. We told them the base was leaving and this would effect our partnership if something was not done. At about the six Week mark after most who had tried the free 30 day trial had given up and left MAINLY because of the drop outs we asked for a remedy as in a Year of streaming OR until the problem was fixed, it ended when they said NO. 48 Hours after that we made a offer to work with no pay and let Sirius/XM have the show exclusivly while we streamed from the Web Site, they said they would consider that and have not responded to phone calls, email’s or texting since. How is that NOT working with them?

The HORROR REPORT has been told that the ‘typical’ means of communication have taken place .. Camp Bell proposed the idea last week of broadcasting DARK MATTER live on ArtBell.com, while Sirius would have maintained exclusive rights to the program.. Bell and others, including his producer and friend Paul Bowman, said that Sirius XM were considering the offer as recently as last Wednesday..
While there has been no official response from the satellite radio company, they also took mentions of Bell off of their website and removed his program from this upcoming weekly lineup..

There seemed to be a much more tense and intense Bell on his posts tonight.. For example, he said this on Sirius and his relationship –obviously now over–with the network:

I am not crazy about the way some things have been handled, they canned Paul without so much as a Human voice doing the job and he had been trying to get a handle on the streaming mess every day. Now they take the tactic of simply not responding in any way to ALL forms of communication the modern World has. At least I spoke to them like people in a normal business relationship. I am telling you there is something else in the works.

Bell continued in further posts trying to provoke users to express anger and questions at Sirius XM instead of him.. The bizarre situation even has the likes of Richard C. Hoagland commenting on the entire affair..

As of Sunday night, the DARK MATTER program remains, overall, a mystery.. Clear reading of tea leaves may suggest that Bell no longer has a home on Sirius XM, but without a definite answer being given to the host of the program, Producer Bowman, or webmaster Keith Rowland, time will tell–and tell soon. Monday night at 10pm EDT.. will DARK MATTER air, or will Jay Thomas be repeated?

Answers soon.. the drama will soon have an answer..

Typhoon Haiyan has made landfall in Vietnam’s Quang Ninh Province

A stroll along the Sunday morning Sidewalk

A SUNDAY MORNING SIDEWALK, Sunday November 10, 2013

A sampling of news from the world..

The horror in the Philippines is almost too much to grasp..10,000 dead from a storm? It could be that high, or higher. Yes, mother nature is cruel.. but we’re told God is not. And if He’s not, I urge someone to tell me why such events like this one happen..

The death toll from the superstorm in the Philippines could reach upwards of 10,000 people. There have been some who believe it may actually end up being even higher than that..
One witness described Haiyan of being like a tsunami..
The situation is dire, but with the conditions and lack of power, it will be some time before a true accounting of the devastation is actually known.

Haiyan is now on to Vietnam, where 6.5 million people are preparing and 170,000 soldiers have been drafted to reinforce homes ..
And another tropical threat is coming to the Philippines..

5.5 quake Tokyo..

The falling European satellite is still sending signals..

Hollywood Reporter laments Blockbuster: A eulogy for a three day rental..

People are mocking Blockbuster and what we, as movie watchers, used to do. I will tell you this, it wasn’t that long ago —up until about 4 years I was still renting at Blockbuster—that the store got me through many nights.. it was a shining gold light on top of a hill–quite literally for my store.. You felt like home in it.. I think people will one day miss movies this way. Same way I say we’ll miss bookstores too..

More news later.. until then, enjoy your stroll down the Sunday morning Sidewalk..

MULTIPLE SOURCES REPORTING THAT THE DEATH TOLL IN THE PHILIPPINES MAY CROSS THE 10,000 MARK .. ANOTHER STORM IS FORMING..

The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

A folk song by Gordon Lightfoot dramatized in words and music the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior.. This is the anniversary weekend of the disaster..

The haunting words of the Lightfoot song captured the emotion of the tragic event..

On November 10, 1975, Lake Superior was hit with a storm that created ocean-like waves in the water body. The Edmund Fitzgerald was traveling in the storm when the captain suddenly had difficulty with taking too much water. The people who died on the ship were crew of the ship, along with a Maritime Academy cadet.. The youngest was 21, the oldest was 63.. You can find more on the ship and the sinking here..

Lightfoot considers his song about the disaster his finest work.
The HORROR REPORT agrees..
