  1. For Space Aficionados: coming to a theatre near you, the movie ” First Man” starring Ryan Gossling is the riveting story of NASA’s mission to land a man on the moon, focusing on Neil Armstrong and the years 1961 to 1969. Based on the book: First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong by James R. Hansen. Release date: October 12, 2018.

    1. Pffft. No American flags in it anywhere. A complete travesty as far as history is concerned. Well deserved of a boycott by all who don’t desire actual history to be “progressivized”….

      1. Aldrin’s not too pleased about that. After all, he helped Armstrong raise the flag.

        Even the Apollo 11 episode of the HBO series From the Earth to the Moon included it, but that series was made more than 20 years ago.

        As for me, I might watch it once it’s on cable.

    1. Yes, it was a great press conference. The press conference reminded me of why I find the media so disgusting. Bunch of slime. All they did was thinly veiled shilling for the Liberals and activist judges.

      Go Doug Ford and confound them even more.

  5. If any institution or business wants to pay tribute to a patriot(s) who sacrificed what life they had left to save others and defend their nation against Civilizational jihad. Tom Burnett, a real American hero.

    Mike Rowe’s Brilliant Response to the Kaepernick Nike Ad

    Nike’s free to celebrate whomever they wish, and Kaepernick is entitled to his opinion – kneeling, standing, or lying down. But if I was going to put someone’s face on a billboard – someone who epitomized bravery and sacrifice – I might have gone another way, especially this time of year. I might have gone with this guy – Tom Burnett.

    Tom’s last act on earth was one of the most courageous things imaginable. And his last words to his wife, Deena, are among the most inspiring I’ve ever heard. Those exact words are at the top of this page, and the bottom. They were spoken seventeen years ago, under conditions I hope to never experience. I’ll never forget Tom’s last words. I hope you won’t either.

    Transcript of Tom’s Last Calls to Deena

    6:27 a.m.( pacific time) First cell phone call from Tom to Deena

    Deena: Hello
    Tom: Deena
    Deena: Tom, are you O.K.?
    Tom: No, I’m not. I’m on an airplane that has been hijacked.
    Deena: Hijacked?
    Tom: Yes, They just knifed a guy.
    Deena: A passenger?
    Tom: Yes.
    Deena: Where are you? Are you in the air?
    Tom: Yes, yes, just listen. Our airplane has been hijacked. It’s United Flight 93 from Newark to San Francisco. We are in the air. The hijackers have already knifed a guy, one of them has a gun, they are telling us there is a bomb on board, please call the authorities. He hung up.

    6:31 Deena calls 911
    6:34 The phone rang in on call waiting, Tom’s second cell phone call.

    Deena: Hello
    Tom: They’re in the cockpit. The guy they knifed is dead.
    Deena: He’s dead?
    Tom: Yes. I tried to help him, but I couldn’t get a pulse.
    Deena: Tom, they are hijacking planes all up and down the east coast. They are taking them and hitting designated targets. They’ve already hit both towers of the World Trade Center.
    Tom: They’re talking about crashing this plane. (a pause) … It’s a suicide mission…(he then tells people sitting around him)
    Deena: Who are you talking to?
    Tom: My seatmate. Do you know which airline is involved?
    Deena: No, they don’t know if they’re commercial airlines or not. The newsreporters are speculating cargo planes, private planes and commercial. No one knows.
    Tom: How many planes are there?
    Deena: They’re not sure, at least three. Maybe more.
    Tom: O.K….O.K….Do you know who is involved?
    Deena: No.
    Tom: We’re turning back toward New York. We’re going back to the World Trade Center. No, wait, we’re turning back the other way. We’re going south.
    Deena: What do you see?
    Tom: Just a minute, I’m looking. I don’t see anything, we’re over a rural area. It’s just fields. I’ve gotta go.

    6:45 a.m. Third cell phone call from Tom to Deena

    Tom: Deena
    Deena: Tom, you’re O.K. (I thought at this point he had just survived the Pentagon plane crash).
    Tom: No, I’m not.
    Deena: They just hit the Pentagon.
    Tom: (tells people sitting around him “They just hit the Pentagon.”)
    Tom: O.K….O.K. What else can you tell me?
    Deena: They think five airplanes have been hijacked. One is still on the ground. They believe all of them are commercial planes. I haven’t heard them say which airline, but all of them have originated on the east coast.
    Tom: Do you know who is involved?
    Deena: No
    Tom: What is the probability of their having a bomb on board? I don’t think they have one. I think they’re just telling us that for crowd control.
    Deena: A plane can survive a bomb if it’s in the right place.
    Tom: Did you call the authorities?
    Deena: Yes, they didn’t know anything about your plane.
    Tom: They’re talking about crashing this plane into the ground. We have to do something. I’m putting a plan together.
    Deena: Who’s helping you?
    Tom: Different people. Several people. There’s a group of us. Don’t worry. I’ll call you back.

    6:54 a.m. Fourth cell phone call to Tom to Deena

    Deena: Tom?
    Tom: Hi. Anything new?
    Deena: No
    Tom: Where are the kids?
    Deena: They’re fine. They’re sitting at the table having breakfast. They’re asking to talk to you.
    Tom: Tell them I’ll talk to them later.
    Deena: I called your parents. They know your plane has been hijacked.
    Tom: Oh…you shouldn’t have worried them. How are they doing?
    Deena: They’re O.K.. Mary and Martha are with them.
    Tom: Good.

    (a long quiet pause)

    Tom: We’re waiting until we’re over a rural area. We’re going to take back the airplane.
    Deena: No! Sit down, be still, be quiet, and don’t draw attention to yourself! (The exact words taught to me by Delta Airlines Flight Attendant Training).
    Tom: Deena! If they’re going to crash this plane into the ground, we’re going to have do something!
    Deena: What about the authorities?
    Tom: We can’t wait for the authorities. I don’t know what they could do anyway.
    It’s up to us. I think we can do it.
    Deena: What do you want me to do?
    Tom: Pray, Deena, just pray.

    (after a long pause)

    Deena: I love you.
    Tom: Don’t worry, we’re going to do something…

    (Transcript from the Tom Burnett Family Foundation.)

    1. Larry @ 1:28 am
      This Deena and Tom transcript is riveting. I read Lisa Beamer’s book entitled ” Let’s Roll” about her husband Todd who was on that same flight that crashed in Somerset County. The Beamers last conversation was similar. These guys, with others on the plane, with little time to spare, compared info learned from the ground and made the brave and quick decision to crash the plane they were in. They never knew each other, yet they decided as a team to do this one final act in life, an act of bravery. It was Todd and Tom who seemingly led the team. The last thing Todd’s wife heard him say was: “LET’S ROLL.”

      RIP lost souls of September 11, 2001 also never forget the others…
      RIP lost souls of September 11, 2012 …..

      P.S. At least they knew that there were other planes downed and they were possibly saving many lives. These were some of America’s finest men…others who died that day had no such knowledge, no such chance, no such final decision.

      Regardless, they are all to be remembered, on this day…

    A 28-year-old Burnaby, B.C., man with no previous criminal record has been charged with the first-degree murder of 13-year-old Marrisa Shen.

    Police say Ibrahim Ali, who arrived in the country 17 months ago as a refugee from Syria, was arrested in Burnaby on Sept. 7.

    Shen went missing on July 18, 2017. Her body was found early the next morning in Burnaby’s Central Park. Police have not revealed how she was killed, nor if she was sexually assaulted.

    “We still believe this crime was a random act,” said Donna Richardson, superintendent with the Integrated Homicide Investigative Team. “As far as motive is concerned… I am not able to discuss these matters in order to protect future judicial procedures.”

    The charge against Ali was sworn on Saturday when he was remanded into custody until his next appearance in provincial court in Vancouver on Friday morning to consult with counsel…

    L- 9/11 was 17 years ago, since then a mass migration(hijra-invasion) is ongoing, and the homicide of the infidels continues. Who will answer for this? Who will even ask?

    1. How can they say he had no previous criminal record – in Canada? I doubt they’d have any reliable records from Syria – especially if he was one of the fast-tracked refugees. Someone needs to find out if he was or not. And what was the new information that led them to him in only the past couple of week?

    2. sudden jihad syndrome. scrap this captcha there has to something else available. How the heck do I know something in Chinese is or is not a street sign or some other nonsense. 17 clicks to satisfy the foolish thing.

  9. The film is awful and riveting. Bravery and horror. I saw it when it came out but can’t watch it again. But it is something you should take the time to watch. The brothers just thought they were filming a day in the life…

    Max is about to name his new Party later this week. So far, Gurmant Grewal is onside,as is former Liberal Marc Emery and Dragon’s den member Michael Wekerle. Hopefully he can make a difference in 2019 and break the Trudeau stranglehold on Canada that Scheer and his band of poli-sci graduates can’t seem to upset.

    1. How does splitting the centre right vote get Trudeau out? That makes no sense whatsoever.

      I think we should dance with the girls we brought. It’s too late to change dance partners.

      1. I understand and sympathize with that philosophy, but what if you found out the girl you brought was a whore turning tricks in the washroom while you were up getting drinks?

  12. Geomagnetic storm tonight and maybe tomorrow night. Look to the north for those northern lights. Maybe S. Michigan will see them as well.

    1. I checked some of the amateur radio bands earlier this evening. Dead as a door nail. If one can’t even hear Morse code traffic, propagation conditions are bad.

  13. The dog that didn’t bark: Sherlock Holmes.

    “Discovery of dog allegedly shot by sexual abuse defendant saves him from 50-year prison sentence

    The complainant testified Horner threatened to shoot her animals if she told police about the alleged molestation, and added she saw him shoot her dog, to make his point” (NP)

  14. AGW Kills.

    Climate Red-green Blob goes insane alarmist again with “unprecedented”. NOT.

    “‘unprecedented’ Hurricane Florence”. (accuweather)

  16. 17 years ago today I was heading to the airport to fly home when i found out about the attack on American.
    A buddy of mine was sitting in the departure lounge in Memphis when he heard the news. He framed his boarding pass.
    A sad day in the world.

    1. This video should be shown across the country to show people just what sort of filth they elected to the government of Canada.

      1. Heather Reisman is involved with this conference. That confirms why I haven’t purchased any books from Chapters/indigo/Coles since she banned a certain political book from her store shelves but kept other similar political books.

        1. She’s a sharp business executive but, yet, she talked a lot of twaddle in that session.

    2. Freeland is utterly mad…she has delusions of grandeur. Come on Toronto — you can do better. That was torture to listen to.

  20. The tolerant Left…

    CASTRO VALLEY (CBS SF) – A man was arrested on suspicion of felony assault and other charges after allegedly attempting to stab a Republican congressional candidate with a switchblade over the weekend at in Castro Valley, according to the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office.

    …approached Peters at his booth in an aggressive manner and made disparaging, profanity-laced remarks about the Republican party and President Donald Trump.

  21. The real reason why Trans-Mountain and other projects have failed since 2004. Barbara Kay knocks another one out of the park.

    The Villain in the Trans Mountain Fiasco – and Other Fiascos since 2004 – is the Supreme Court of Canada
    The Trudeau government was clearly taken by surprise at the Federal Court’s nullifying of their approval of the 1,150-km Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.

    There is also no incentive for aboriginals to settle for anything less than exactly what they want. The Lax Kw’alaams of B.C. turned down a billion dollars in exchange for their support of an industrial project. There was no downside for them. They had the power and knew it. No matter how long they held out, their transfer payments flowed in as usual, and they took no economic risks if the project failed. If one side has nothing to lose and the other side has everything to lose, Best says, “you don’t have negotiations – you have a shakedown.”

  22. I just sent that ‘Women in the world’ link off to a lot of other people – some of whom are very liberal indeed.

    I just cannot believe the Liberal brain trust would not recognize the optics of this, or that their trade opponent, president Trump, will not have this brought to his attention.

    Because I cannot believe it, I must assume that it is part of Liberal party strategy to offend a powerful strategic trading partner, in order to achieve other ends.

    And I think that end has election 2019 written all over it.

    Never mind the collateral damage to the Canadian economy. Re-shaping the world from climate to human nature requires some sacrifice.
