That player was Tirrell Williams, who would later collapse in the middle of that practice.

Kant and Happiness

"The problem of determining surely and universally which action would promote the happiness of a rational being is completely insoluble."  "...happiness is not an ideal of reason but of imagination."

Cuomo nursing home order did cause more deaths, should’ve been reversed sooner: task force

 Its findings rely in part on a study by the Empire Center for Public Policy, first reported by The Post, that tied “several hundred and possibly more than 1,000” deaths of nursing home residents to the DOH’s March 25, 2020, order.

Newly Released Gov Docs Show Researchers Sent Strains of 'Viral DNA' to Wuhan Lab for Years

 According to another leaked document accessed by Drastic, an open source data analyst group, Dr. Peter Daszak, the head of EcoHealth Alliance, had proposed that the U.S. government fund “to artificially insert cleavage sites into Sars-like coronaviruses collected in the field and studied in Wuhan,” the Daily Mail reported.

Are Vaccines Effective? Are They Safe?

 Gibraltar is more than fully vaccinated, they are 118 percent vaccinated, meaning that many fully vaccinated have had booster injections too. Yet this headline doesn’t jive with CDC assertions, “Most vaccinated place on Earth told to cancel holiday plans amid an exponential rise in COVID cases.”

Pick another country: “93% vaccinated Ireland has gone into partial lockdown, including midnight curfew.” This recent headline too, “COVID surge in Singapore despite 80 percent vaccination.” Or from the U.K. where the Spectator reported, “The rates of Covid infection per 100,000 are now higher among the vaxxed than the unvaxxed.”

Closer to home it’s much the same, “Vermont has the highest vaccination rate in the country. So why are cases surging?” My home state of Colorado is singing from the same hymnal, “Colorado’s COVID hospitalizations jump again as virus’ statewide death toll surpasses 9,000.” Colorado’s 12 and up population is over 80 percent partially or fully vaccinated.

Are they safe?


VAERS is the “Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.” From their website, one can compare adverse events from COVID vaccines from the past 11 months they have been available to adverse events from all vaccines for the past 30 years, 1990 and onward.

Note this is 11 months versus 30 years of side effects and in most categories, the cumulative cases are similar between the two groups, despite a 30-fold time difference of data recording. Of note, hospitalizations, deaths, permanent disabilities, and birth defects were greater for 11 months of COVID vaccines than they were for 30 years of all other types of vaccines – such as shingles, influenza, measles, mumps, hepatitis, and so on.

VAERS is voluntary reporting. For a variety of reasons, all cases do not make it to the VAERS database. How much is this underreporting? VAERS did their own analysis about ten years ago and found, “Fewer than 1% of vaccine adverse events are reported.” Their words, not mine.

Bob Marley

 Many people don't know that Bob Marley renounced his belief in Haile Selassie as Messiah and accepted Jesus Christ as Messiah. Bob Marley was baptized an Ethiopian Orthodox Christian by Archbishop Yesehaq in 1981.

Archbishop Yesehaq later said of Bob Marley, "When he was baptized, he hugged his family and wept, they all wept together for about half an hour... When he toured Los Angeles and New York and England, he preached the Orthodox faith, and many members in those cities came to the Church because of Bob."

Does the Hebrew Masoretic text underlying the KJV have any errors?

 Many believe that the KJV is based on the Hebrew Masoretic text of the Second Rabbinic Bible, edited by Jacob Ben Chayyim and printed by Daniel Bomberg in 1525. However, the KJV appeared to follow the First Rabbinic Bible, edited by Felix Pratensis in 1517-1518, as this first edition includes Joshua 21:36-37 and Nehemiah 7:68 whereas the second edition omits these verses. Except for these two passages, the KJV appeared to follow the Ben Chayyim text.

Homemade Pizza and Focaccia

 The equipment you'll need for pizza is a cast iron pizza griddle and a pizza peel; you'll also need a surface to work the dough--either a counter or a large wood cutting board. A stick blender is handy for the sauce--and a pizza cutter.


Recipe for dough is: 4 cups AP flour (1 cup 00 and 3 cups AP is better), 2t salt, 1 3/4 t yeast, 1 2/3 cup water in the microwave for 30 seconds. Mix, knead a little, and let rise for a few  hours (all day is fine). I cover the bowl with a wet hand towel with a lid over it.

Recipe for the sauce is: get a 28 oz can of good san marzano tomatoes and pour a little juice into a container with tall sides (I use my stick blender container). Mince a clove of garlic and blend with the liquid. Break up the tomatoes with your hands and put them into the container with the garlic liquid. Blend just enough to break up the tomatoes and make a smooth sauce. Then add a little salt and pepper, a pinch of sugar, a little olive oil, and some oregano.

Preheat the oven to 500 and heat the griddle for one hour before baking. Also, slice an 8 oz ball of fresh mozzarella cheese and put the slices on paper towels on top and beneath to drain out the liquid. I put the bowl of dough on top as a weight.

Break the dough ball in half and leave the half you're not using in the bowl and covered with the wet towel. Take the ball of dough you're using and put it on a floured surface--just enough flour so it won't stick. Flatten it into a circle with your hands and let it rest a few minutes. Come back and flatten it some more with your hands into a bigger circle. Let it rest again. Now pick it up in your hands and go around the edges with both of your hands under the dough and stretch the rim. Put it back down on the board and press it down some more. Let it rest again and now stretch the whole thing going around in a circle. The key is not to force the dough but let it rest between stretchings. You should end up with a 14" circle.

Put the circle on a lightly floured peel. Working quickly, cover the dough with 5 big spoonfuls of the sauce, followed by a good sprinkling of freshly grated parmesan cheese, followed by half of the mozzarella. 

Now put the pizza into the oven. The trick is to push the peel forward with enough of a jerk to get the tip of the dough onto the griddle. Once you do that, the tip will stick to the griddle and then you can slide out the peel from under it. Bake the pizza for 7 minutes and then put on the broiler for an additional 1 minute. Use the peel to take the pizza out of the oven and put it on the stove top to cool for a minute before slicing. If you have fresh basil, break it up with your hands and put it on the pizza while it's still hot.

At this point, we sit down and eat and then after dinner I make the second pizza, which makes for good leftovers.

Buon appetito!


For Focaccia:

Use all 00 flour instead of AP for the dough, if you can.

Preheat oven at 500 for one hour.

After the dough rises, pour 1/4 cup olive oil on a cookie sheet and plop the risen dough on top of it and cover both sides of the dough with oil. Gradually work the dough to cover the entire sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for an hour or so and then poke down into the dough with two fingers all over the dough and sprinkle some coarse salt and rosemary on top. Bake for 10 minutes.

Juneteenth, Mama Sugar, Sulfur Springs, TX

Mama Sugar has been celebrating Juneteenth since she was a small child. Born on June 6, 1939, she was raised from the age of six by an aunt and uncle on a farm in County Line, a tiny community east of Dallas near Sulphur Springs. Her cooking recalls the pure country flavors of her East Texas upbringing. The family ate what it grew. From an early age, she helped raise hogs, chicken, ducks, geese, and cattle. Watermelon, tomatoes, and peanuts were sold for cash in town. Corn, okra, sweet potatoes, black-eyed peas, pole beans, and ribbon cane were harvested for the farmhouse kitchen. The ribbon cane was taken to a local mill, where it was crushed and cooked down into syrup. Cane syrup was the only sweetener available, and Mama Sugar grew up using it for everything.

You May Lend With Usury to Strangers

 Deuteronomy 23:19-20 adds another dimension: "Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of anything that is lent upon usury. Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thy hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it."
