You are presumed to be honest and responsible without evidence to the contrary beyond a reasonable doubt… on the balance of probablilties you are justified by 51 % likelyhood.
I hear you, is carbon dioxide responsible for global warming? Yes it is, it is not the only factor but its been the determinate of temperature for some time. And maybe not entirely how you think it is doing that.
Carbon dioxide is the chemical residue that is produced by the burning of carbon. Adding oxygen in two parts to the carbon through burning or the laws of thermal dynamics will give that gas into the atmosphere where it can be taken up by plants and the two parts of oxygen are given off back into the atmosphere in photosynthesis . Then we breath that oxygen and burn carbon in our cells when eating and by the delivery by blood. Carbon dioxide is then taken back to our lungs expelled and available to plants.
So these processes are balanced by environment, the animals that take in and breath it out are tuned by nature to the quantities of both CO2 and oxygen. So when PPM gets out of ballance species go extinct and a transition driven.
So, unfortunately humans in these transitions may have to live with extremafiles for longer then they can possibly survive.
So lets look at an analogy, say the united human race party expelled a member into the environment that environment was in flux, lets call it an election mandate. That creature would have to adapt to different oxygen levels in the rooms that the party gathered in, however the community of extremafiles there-with would mitigate the transition and seek carbon that they were able to burn at their metabolic pleasure. Thus allowing the former UHR member to transition and that maybe in only few generations!
Call them election cycles, however if too much CO2 goes into the ocean environment ( call it the federal government ) Then more heat is not mitigated by cool water, lets call it government deficit spending,then the UHR guy has a real problem the environment is changing quicker then he can adapt and he faces extinction. If he is the only one left and to far out in the ocean to make it back to where the othes are hanging on in a pocket reserve, he is done.
His only hope is that a raft happens by and he migrates, And chance helps him, This spooky action is a coalition.
Then if to much coal is motioned the CO2 grandstands and thats it; extinction is inevitable.
Wait, one eon, some thermal vents interact with some UHR DNA, lets call it a research grant.It is in a isolated back committee room. Lets call that an abandoned caucus room.
Lets call that an independent movement to natural selection by adaptation… slim pickings!

personal stuff…
Gentleness refers to a kind, considerate, and calm approach in one’s behavior and actions. It involves treating others with a tender and compassionate attitude, avoiding harshness or aggression. This trait is often associated with being understanding and patient, seeking to resolve conflicts peacefully and making others feel at ease. Practicing gentleness can foster harmonious relationships and create a soothing environment.
To observe the night sky, first find a location away from city lights to reduce light pollution. Then, allow your eyes to adjust to the darkness. Use a star chart or a stargazing app to identify constellations, planets, and other celestial objects. Consider using a telescope or binoculars for a closer view, and be patient as your eyes adapt to the dark. Happy stargazing!

Taking 7000 dollars in money and gold dust as well as about 250 thousand in US bonds and Australian securities in his famous Mission train robbery( first in Canada) he was on the lam here as a gentlemen and traveling abroad to Europe.
The local Coldwater hotel (1908) has a story of the securities being hid behind a mirror and in the dome of the three story building. There are no accounting of the securities ever being recovered but a strong interest in the CPR authorities to do that.
The timeline of Minors activities brought him to the 1907 Duck lake train robbery which netted Bill Minor, Shorty Dunn and Louis Colquhoun,( died of TB in the BC Penn was a teacher from Ontario) about 20 dollars and the registered mail that secured their conviction in a two week trail in Kamloops. The three had been arrested after one of them had lost his nerve when being talked to by searching posse members.
Minor and Dunn got life in the BC Penn the other 25 years. However Minor weighing in at less then 140 lbs acted in the way of a rabbit and slid out of prison under a fence within 13 months of the sentence. He died in Georgia in 1913 after at least one train robbery there. Noted as the picture of innocence it was reported that the locals there chipped in for a burial.
Nina Wooliams in her 1979 book Cattle Ranch says that while working as George Edwards, Minor was responsible for and accident where a Chinese laborer fell out of a wagon and died of head injuries. The mans brother a cook at the ranch was wanting to kill minor causing Greaves to let him go. This gave him the time and inclination to plan the Duck lake robbery. It is also noted that he was after the relief money going to the San Franciso earthquake victims in 1907. He got the wrong train.
This year is the 100th year since his death in Georgia and it marks an age that passed the authorities excepting of Robin Hood types like Miner. Even the 1907 attribution of credit in Miner with the catch words Hands Up by a the head of the Pinkerton agency would probably not be done today.People operating on the wrong side of the government and community face public relations and vilification that is hard to beat. Even political figures like Saddam and others must not have been all bad.
In the words of a favored son ,when talking of an arch villain Adolf Hitler the statement of innocence ” I heard he was good to his dog” gave a sense that borrowing trouble not your own is a pricey emotional and spiritual due.
Hating someone makes them bigger then they are and engaging them somehow lessens you. Though necessary sometimes, we hope that you are spared these episodes in you and yours lives. We wish that you escape like a rabbit under the fence the cost and confinement of ill will.
Ode to the Grey Fox may he continue to rest in peace. Watch out for PR on the other side.
Shorty Dunn drowned at 70 years of age involved in prospecting in northern Canada, its said that he lost his life in bravery saving another. Colquhoun is buried in the New West Minister Penitentiary grave yard with about 100 other unclaimed bodies. The NWP is torn down however the graveyard remains with unmarked graves and some concrete marker bearing prisoner numbers.
Although the stories are sanitized through the lens of history and belief, he is noted as having a career by the RCMP in their web site page”The Story of Bill Miner” it included over thirty years of prison time and is softer then the term ” Career Criminal”. The police also say that his capture gave then credibility. Two jurisdictions did the arrest here in Merritt. The CPR also lost a lot of chinese labourers building the rail road to nitro explosions ( transported in wagons)
In 1914 a year after Bill Miners death in Georgia the Government of British Columbia purchased two Chilean Navel submarines, this was covert against the law and against an American embargo. The constitutional authority for defence was the Canadian Federal Government who quickly acquired them from the province of British Columbia. The price that BC paid a reported 1.1 million dollars was bigger then the Federal governments navel budget. the clouds of war in Europe had been gathering foe some time and challenges to structure had occurred since the death of Queen Victoria in 1901. The time and setting fit the range of Miner in BC. Since the arrest in Merritt was done by a BC Policeman and a NWMP federal cop we can image politics and positioning even with the reports of Pinkerton cops coming up and the vilifying reports that Miner had been after the San Fransisco relief money going south.
He was a crook and a thief ( a long record) but some civility was clear and gave a mood that fit the time and sense of right and wrong here in BC.
His play was acted out some time after the Mcleans who were real murders and uncontrolled. They were hung at the BC Pen after holding off a large posse at the Douglas large ranch. The posse formed after they had killed a civil cop at the stump lake ranch north of Merritt. Still the conspiring context of these criminal acts were addressed by a need for credibility and country that did not fully get settled untill after the great conflict of the first world war and events like Vimy ridge and other.
Why is this relevant today, because the same passions are excited by insecurity now and in particular with young people they are the easiest group to blame for budget problems and malaise and political strife. Case in point the 15-year-old that was shot by police in Greece, that perception and movement against banks and globalization ran a gambit several years ago.
These guys were bad guys but where did it start, someone missed a opportunity to lead and it went to blame…..?
Its save to say that being civil has its rewards; sometimes.

The frequency of personal injuries can vary, but some studies suggest that weekends tend to see more accidents, possibly due to increased leisure activities and alcohol consumption. Additionally, certain holidays and events associated with celebrations may also pose a higher risk for accidents. It’s important to exercise caution and follow safety guidelines at all times.
The heritage of Lord Stanley’s cup is tied to the west coast and his Namesake park in Vancouver. The cup includes the Vancouver Millionaires from 1915, and existed as a team from 1911- 1926, only having the cup for one season.
Governor General’s cup
Lord Stanley was the Governor general of Canada from 1888 to 1893 and presented the cup to be used with his name. Fredrick Charles Stanley was the 17th Earl of Derby.
The first team to have the cup to demonstrate the virtues expected to have the cup for a year was the Amature Athletic Assocation of Montreal. The Cup is said to be the hardest cup to aquire in all of professional sport.
Today a lesson in French as we publish this recent capture of a visitor to Beautiful British Columbia. Outside the Post office office and in the center of the City of Merritt we were pleasantly reminded that culture enriches especially when married with a common interest such as travel or camping.
Do you know yourself? What about limits, do you care about others limits, does it matter?
Understanding oneself is crucial for personal growth and well-being. Setting limits and boundaries can help individuals maintain a healthy balance in their lives and relationships. It’s important to consider and respect the limits of others, as this contributes to building meaningful and respectful connections. When interacting with others, being mindful of their limits can lead to more positive and fulfilling relationships. However, it’s also essential to evaluate the impact of these limits on the nature of relationships, whether they are with friends or potential adversaries. Striking a balance between self-awareness and understanding the boundaries of others is a key aspect of navigating social interactions.
Returning to routine after celebrating a life event can be a significant shift. Here are a few tips to ease the transition:
Reflect on the Celebration: Take a moment to reflect on the event and the joy it brought. This can help you appreciate the experience and carry its positivity forward.
Re-establish Priorities: Identify your important tasks and commitments, and gradually reintegrate them into your schedule. Setting achievable goals can help you regain a sense of normalcy.
Slow Transition: Ease back into your routine rather than abruptly diving back in. Start by tackling the most essential tasks first.
Self-Care: Ensure that you take care of yourself both physically and mentally, as transitions can be emotionally taxing.
Stay Connected: Maintain the connections made during the celebration and use them as a source of support as you return to your routine.
By approaching the transition with mindfulness and self-care, you can effectively reintegrate into your routine after celebrating a significant life event.
