PHOTOS / SKYSCAPES
Saw this sunburst today, and had to get a shot. A man-made canyon is formed by a couple of huge concrete warehouses on the right and left.
Man continues to build these big, ugly buildings, but Mother Nature is not the least bit intimidated.

CURRENT EVENTS / FOX NEWS / TUCKER CARLSON
I was shocked to find out that Fox News fired Tucker Carlson today. He was one of the most honest and entertaining newscasters I've ever seen on TV. He was also, by far, the most popular news anchor is history, as his show got stellar ratings.
I do hope he finds a new home somewhere he can be appreciated.
My tribute to Tucker is this wonderful speech he gave just a few days ago. Please listen to the whole thing, as it will be blessing to you.

CHRISTIANITY / DEATH
Is God and Jesus for real? Well, ask people who've died. Yes, there are a lot of people who've died, and who have seen things, including God and Jesus. Angles and dead relatives are also common sites amongst those who have died.
Both these woman actually did die, and thanks to the miracle of modern medical science, came back from the dead.
In this video, Karina and Erica share what they saw and experienced while dead, and, in some cases, still alive!
Erica was a neo-natal nurse when she died, and now she is a hospice nurse.

CHRISTIANITY / ANGLICAN / GAFCON
Well, they did it. GAFCON is the splinter group that broke from the worldwide Anglican Communion, also know as the Church of England ( C of E ). They recently held their international conference in Kigali, Rwanda.
Right from the start, they called the Archbishop of Canterbury to REPENT for his "blessing" of same-sex unions, which is blatantly un-Christian, illogical, and idiotic. The LGBT virus has infected every institution in the world, including the Anglican Church. For those who are not under the sway of the Gay Mafia, the capitulation of Christian leaders to the gay agenda is mind numbing. Might as well give the green light to pedophiles and beastiality while you're at it.
Basically, GAFCON has now officially broken-off from the Church of England, and is providing a refuge for all Anglicans who are sick and tired of the LGBT agenda being shoved down their throats at every turn. This is a major event that the entire news media is completely ignoring, and for good reason: the global news media complex are all cheering on the LGBT movement, with a few notable exceptions. They will never air anything the least bit critical of gays. Not going to happen.
This is very good news for all Christians who are tired of their churches and leadership being co-opted by LGBT. Thanks mainly to the African contingent in GAFCON, there will never be any LGBT infiltration into this new denomination, as they all know what tremendous evil and heresy is involved with that movement. It's a sad day when Africans are far more civilized and rational than the European Christians who evangelized them. But so it is.
May God greatly bless GAFCON and all the Anglicans who are gathering under this new movement.

RECIPES / ASIAN / CHINESE / BEEF
The newest recipe from Mandy at "Souped up Recipes". As soon as I saw this, I had to make it myself, and did so. It really tastes wonderful!
I substituted regular button mushrooms for the fancy ones Mandy uses, sliced thin, and cut my onions into much smaller strips than the large "scoops" that Mandy uses, and cooked them both until the mushrooms and onions caramelized. For the beef, I used flank steak and prepped it and cooked it almost exactly as Mandy recommends.
The biggest difference: I used the carbon-steel wok that Mandy sells to prep everything! Her wok is fantastic! I've even purchased it for other friends and relatives. For an oil-fried dish like this, a wok is actually the better way to go.
After everything was cooked, I served it over Jasmine rice. It was really good! But I do recommend cutting the amount of pepper used by half.

DEATH / HOSPICE CARE / PHENOMENA
Is there life after death? Well, there is one profession where almost everyone believes in life after death, and no, it's not Christian ministers or pastors, it's nurses--especially nurses who work in hospice care.
In this short video, Nurse Julie tells us about the many things she and other nurses have seen during the end of a person's life. Well worth taking the time to watch.

HISTORY / NATURE / MEGAFAUNA EXTINCTION
The most amazing and incredible mystery is the megafauna extinction that has been going on for the best 50,000 years or so, especially about 15,000 - 5,000 years ago. All sorts of amazing animals that once were all vanished: cave bears, dire wolves, woolly mammoths, giant sloths, elephant birds, and lots of other amazing creatures.
In this video, Ross MacPhee talks about possible reasons for the extinction of the megafauna. Must see TV!

MODEL TRAINS / GARDEN RAILWAYS / BRITISH NARROW GAUGE
This video is from a show featuring "16mm" British narrow gauge model trains. Notice how MOST of the trains are using real steam engines! Also notice the use of real plants and trees in some of these layouts.
While this exhibition was indoors, most British 16mm narrow gauge train modelers have their layouts outside in their gardens! Hence the layouts that use real plants and trees. It has been very common, for a very long time, for Europeans to have train layout outdoors in their gardens. The trains they use are of course much bigger than the HO trains common in the US, normally being "O" scale or much larger. And the use of real steam engines is very common, in that it's much easier just to use real steam engines that run the electric needed to run a typical model railroad, though there are plenty of outdoor layouts that use weather-proof wiring for the trains.
Absolutely amazing!
