Tm47 online submission "rejected"
I mailed (EMS) in mid-August (with the form, copies of passport picture, and visa/entry stamps, and return envelope with postage) to CW. I've heard nothing since. Am out of country now, so we'll have to try again upon return (+89 days). Anyone else had similar experiences with mailing these in? -

Calamity of voter fraud found! -- it's the immigrant wife of a Republican Cong. candidate
I see / can find no outcome in court of the above case.... But I did find the following filed by the same Queens D.A.: Campaign volunteers indicted in Queens voter fraud scheme July 29, 2024 Six campaign volunteers, including the daughter of a City Council candidate in Queens, were indicted Thursday on voter fraud charges for allegedly submitting bogus absentee ballots, officials said. The suspects were charged with trying to rig a Council race for Republican candidate Yu-Ching James Pai, who was running in a June 2023 primary for the District 20 Council seat in Queens. ... The allegations revolve around a plot to submit fraudulent absentee ballot applications to boost Pai’s campaign. https://www.nydailynews.com/2024/07/25/campaign-volunteers-indicted-in-queens-voter-fraud-scheme/ -

IRAN ATTACKS ISRAEL
The presence of U.S.N serves to amplify tensions rather than promote stability. Yes, the U.S. positions its military as a deterrent against perceived threats from Iran, but it overlooks the broader implications of its action. Look at what happened in Lebanon in 1982. Hezbollah was formed partly in response to the U.S. military presence in Lebanon. Following the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982, which was supported by the U.S., many Lebanese, particularly Shiites, felt marginalized and vulnerable. The presence of foreign troops, especially the U.S. Marines deployed to stabilize the situation, was viewed as an occupation. Does Lebanon not have the right to defend itself? This is going to end badly for the US and Israel. Iran will be the winners. Here's a good video by a renowned US professor talking about how Iran are the big winners, -

Polvanera 17 Primitivo DOP Gioia del Colle: Bringing Puglia's Masterpiece to Thailand
Thank you for your laudation of the Primitivo variety of Italian red wines. I have currently seven different brands of Primitivo in my cellar where I live in northern Italy, of which three are from Puglia but, alas, none is a Polvanera 17. If the number 17 in the brand name is the vintage, that mekes it 2017, ideal to drink now. Did anthing come of the talk about reducing or abolishing import duty and/or exise tax on imported alcoholic beverages in Thailand to attract more high-spending tourists? At what price does the Polvanera 17 Primitivo currently sell in Thailand? Where can it be bought? -

Calamity of voter fraud found! -- it's the immigrant wife of a Republican Cong. candidate
And now just this week in Michigan, we have the Democrat attorney general filing felony criminal charges against four voters accused of attempted double voting in this year's presidential primary, and against three city clerk staff who allegedly facilitated the alleged fraud -- which a Republican county prosecutor had declined to pursue. 7 people face felony charges in double voting incident in St. Clair Shores October 4, 2024 (CBS DETROIT) - Seven people, including four voters, face felony charges in an alleged double voting incident in Michigan's August 2024 primary election, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced Friday morning. The incident involves four St. Clair Shores residents flagged for submitting two ballots in the primary election on Aug. 6. According to Nessel, each person voted by absentee ballot, returned their ballot and then voted in person at their polling location on election day. In three of the four cases, voters signed an affidavit saying they had not received an absentee ballot despite completing and returning one, Nessel said. Election workers informed the voters that their absentee ballots had already been received but were allegedly instructed by assistant clerks to override the system and issue in-person ballots. ... In August, Macomb County Prosecutor [Republican] Peter Lucido declined to authorize charges against the four voters, saying an investigation showed that the "appropriate mechanisms functioned as intended to detect the issue," and that his office "concluded probable cause did not exist to believe that a crime had occurred." (more) https://www.cbsnews.com/detroit/news/dana-nessel-announces-felony-election-law-violations/ Michigan attorney general charges 7 over double voting in Macomb County ... In a statement, Lucido said he respects the Attorney General's "jurisdiction and investigatory resources." "It is not unusual for the Attorney General to charge criminal cases in which a local prosecutor did not," Lucido added. "I expect justice will be served. I have no further comment on this ongoing case." But Christina Hines, the prosecutor's Democratic opponent in the Nov. 5 election, said "it is unacceptable that our elected Prosecutor chose not to even investigate this case" and argued it showed Lucido is unqualified to hold office.

Having kids when old
Some studies suggest that older parents may be associated with poorer child outcomes: Cognitive ability A study found that older paternal age was associated with poorer performance on neurocognitive measures and reading difficulty in children.

Trump Urges Israel to Strike Iran’s Nuclear Facilities
You mean like the resolution that recognized the State of Israel that neither Hamas nor Hezbollah accept? You do understand why they chant from the River to the Sea, don't you? It is because they do not accept the existence of the state of Israel. Both are pledged to the destruction of Israel. It is impossible to have peace with people who want you dead no matter what. -

IRAN ATTACKS ISRAEL
I am angry after seeing videos of Israelis celebrating the death of the Hezbollah leader the other day. I am angry that Israel thinks it can do whatever it likes without the consequences other countries would have. I'm angry about all the Israeli propaganda and how some think Israelis don't want Netanyahu in power, when he in fact represents the psyche of the Israeli people. He's been Democratically elected for how many years? I'm angry at the Apartheid state in Israel and how they view Palestinians as lesser being, even animals as that senior Politician called them after Oct 7 last year. Israel is killing with impunity and it's obvious what their plan is. -
