Undefeated Aliens

 It wont be long and it's back to school, college and university for students in Canada. Their long vacation would be over! Long tedious and worry-some vacation of inhaling the hazy smokes and toxic polluted air caused by so many hundreds of wildfires

I don't know why wildfires became the notorious almost natural calamity disaster here in Canada and you can blame lightning strikes are the cause of such wildfires? Hard to believe it. It could be human negligence or could be "planned burning of fossil fuels?" Or it's a conspiracy theory?

There's that burning question of providing a symbolic sign of alien encounter and that triggers wildfires in succession code. LOL. I am not so sure about such code. Maybe ask SETI about it. Do you believe in aliens?

Aliens are probably here on Earth long before ancient civilization had its beginning. We are not alone. Maybe they are the spirits that we don't see but they can see us. Invisibility and divisibility are their most valuable asset. Just like that, hard to defeat almost always winning.

Episodes

 It was superhot yesterday with 30 degrees Celsius temperature and that was suffocating to the core. Hot and humid and shortness of breath is prevalent most of the time. I first thought I would passed out due to heat exhaustion but only suffered nausea. Yup throwing up like crazy! I'm not used to a temperature of over 24 Celsius. I have to be in a room temperature of 15 degrees Celsius to breathe fairly well. Too bad that we don't have A/C in our home only two electric fans. In previous homes air conditioners were available but not in this current house (townhouse/apartment - a sixplex) we are staying. This area is the hottest area in this city and the oldest part, adjacent to an elementary school, high school and middle school. Also walking distance to the hospital. That's what it is. We moved here in this area because it is closer to the hospital and my husband had his first operation and many hospital visits that he would rather have easy access to emergency. When you are getting older and sickly, hospital should be just within your reach. 

So, yesterday while waiting for our order of crabs we just decided to watch episodes of SEAL TEAM. The action/drama series about six US NAVY SEAL Bravo Team under Masterchief Jason Hayes. When the SEAL TEAM moved to Paramount + we missed so much of the rest of the episodes. Ten episodes of heartbreaking, gut-wrenching moments! What happened to Clay Spenser is very unfair! He suffered so much in those episodes from being victim of an ambush, leg amputation then PTSD and then being a mentor to mediator only to just lose his life from a stupid reckless trigger-happy security guard whose so quick to kill without remorse. UNFAIR STORY. Unfair approach to certain situation. 


 

I'm not sure whether that's the end of the SEAL TEAM series when Jason Hayes received the honorary Navy Cross for his heroism in which should not only Jason but the whole team should receive as it was a team effort. Anyway, guilt felt Jason for the demise of Clay Spenser that he actually acknowledged Clay's heroism in previous operations. Later on Jason Hayes admitted in front of his superiors his own personal account as suffering from PTSD, then followed by Rey who happened to be in the same process of coming to terms as he suffered from all the torture and defeat at the hands of their enemies. PTSD is real. It is a life long physical and psychological trauma!

 NOTE: SPENCER HOUSE Rehab for Veterans was created to honor Clay Spencer and all veterans who happened to be in the same situation of rehabilitating themselves to normalcy to keep in check with their mental and physical well being for their own good.

Don't worry folks! Max Thieriot (Clay Spencer) still can be seen in his latest television series FIRE COUNTRY. He's no longer a SEAL TEAM guy but a firefighter. Don't know for sure if you'll like the story because once again he is seen as "against all odds" again to bring out dramatic scenes on his part. Always been the wrongly accused. The writer should at least give him the credit that he is the main actor and he is the lead but because he is one of the executive producers so maybe he opted to be in that kind of  script.

Fresh Fruits

 

Tropical fruits are in much abundance during summer months and that's why having them is such a delightful treats. I like the fresh watermelons especially the seedless sweet kind. Husband also bought cantaloupes whenever there are watermelons in the supermarket. My daughter don't care much about cantaloupes nor watermelon, she would rather choose pineapple for dessert.

Nothing's wrong with fruits. They are healthy foods. Fruits contain lots of vitamins and help in the digestion process.

Recently, I am into eating plums, peaches, cherries and nectarines. I don't care much about those fruits before but certainly there comes a time when fruits are just part of the normal dietary nutrition at home.

It wont be long when grapes, pears, apples and other autumn fruits are ready for harvest by mid September to October. Pears are one of my favorite fruits more than apples.

War Zone?

 IT TAKES A VILLAGE...

Usually is takes the whole village to control and put off fires or wildfires and once you abandoned a place and just let the wildfire spread then nothing you can do about it. However, knowing how some diligent, devoted firefighters do their job even risking their own lives to save and protect homes and other structures from being destroyed and ravaged by fire as their effort proven to be more of a success rather than failure. Just that there are certain places in this  world where wildfires are just raging inferno that  cause so much havoc and devastation at rapid fast. There's nothing that nothing you can do when mother nature takes it course. .. as wrath of hell.

With the on and off, out control wildfires and about to start wildfires... when will it stop, really? How the hell that BC and Alberta became the "hottest" spot for wildfires? It was after year 2010 when it all began. The global climate change and the inconvenient truth that the world is getting warmer. Environmentalists were going gaga about climate change rallying and doing their protest. Pulp mills and saw mills were then closed and shut down for their own good before that and they want more than zero carbon emission which is crucial to mankind. Carbon is everywhere! What are they talking about?

Anyway, what happened or happening with all the wildfires seem suspicious isn't it? But you know lightning s always the culprit as they said the cause, maybe or maybe not. To see is to believe. It's just that when you abandon a place of fire you let the fire spreads and would it be better to just state that they are abandoned because it's a WAR ZONE?

Feels like it's war. Looks like WAR.

WAR ON WILDFIRES.

Inner Sanctum

 TO SEE IS TO BELIEVE.

Long time ago...when there's wildfire in the neighborhood, a firetruck and its firefighters arrived at the scene of fire almost right immediately to put off the fire and neighbors helped also put off the fire by using their water hoses and or buckets filled with water. It is a neighborhood watch that also see, serve and protect livelihood to secure tenancy in a certain village, town or city. That's the mental preparation for emergency in urban community.

However, the situation is different in most places in Canada. How that happened? I myself is confused just like you. There's no wildfire, no smoke just lingering foggy situation and people are being asked to evacuate from their homes. The smoke and wildfires are from miles away, in the forest and group of people are asked to leave their community for evacuation. I don't know, maybe the authority thought it's better to evacuate before wildfire arrives or before the fire spreads rapidly and get trap from all the smokes. Question of where to house the evacuees? Are they getting free housing and all the needs, hope so. Maybe those newly built condominiums are ready for occupancy eh? Nice. I hope they can afford the high cost of living in the next cities where they are to evacuate. Too many homeless people now that finding vacancy from rental homes is futile. Then with millions of new immigrants looking for work and homes? Wow! Crucial. It's a mess out there. Do you have tide?

I'm not in the area of smoke & wildfires but high heat and extreme humidity can be exhausting and can cause dehydration and death. I hope drones could help show or feature what location has wildfires and how fast would the spread would be or just that there are so many people living off the grid in the woods or forest and their camping inside deep in the forest are causing the panic stricken of what could come out from such kind of shelter. We wont know. BC or British Columbia is a cordillera of massive mountain ranges almost like the Amazons and you'll never know of what's deep inside it until you comb the whole entire geographical location. It's "cordillera!" It is part of the ring of fire.

Anyway, what else is new?

Have you seen or been to the inner sanctum?

You Are Not Alone

 Spoiler alert: As if adding insult to injury.

When you think that you are happy and without problem, somewhere somebody out there tried so hard to include you in their problems. The conflict gets bigger and complicated. Sometimes part of it was the manipulation, manipulative acts of those wicked, evil humans who are unhappy about themselves. Their unhappiness they have to share with you so that somehow you feel the burden, the guilt that they are not alone. They wont be alone in their suffering.

To think that who are the victims to the suffering are those who struggle to be happy despite of the many hurt, pain and obstacles. 

You are not alone...

Why sharing those suffering could help and wont help? What to do and not to do? Approach-avoidance conflict. Ignore the physical, mental and psychological complications? The advantage and disadvantage of such struggles and suffering is too much to bear. 

Maybe religion could help for the faithful thus only if you believe and have faith and if you believe in miracles. I don't have to be dramatic. Who cares? Everyone has a problem and almost everyone is sick of something. Some people knew how to hide and be strong not to be a burden to others. TAKE CARE!🙏 GOD BLESS EVERYBODY!

Strive To Be Happy

 It's drizzling today so it's a bit cooler at 18 Celsius but not really that coolest enough for me. lol. I would be happy if it its down to at least 10 Celsius to 14 degrees Celsius. 

If there's smoke there's fire and that's what happened in the interior of BC and massive amount of people gather where the smokes are... wtf and wth???? LOL. There was a music festival and it was cancelled according to the news. 

Anyway, only few weeks of vacation for students and vacationers because first week of September is back to schools and university for Canadians. It's okay, only the 9th of August, you have enough time and days for your staycation of choice.

Well happy for those individuals or group of people who can have the luxury to go where they can spend their holidays in style in the best resorts ever on the best scenic or panoramic views where money and financial rewards at its finest. Work hard and spend lavishly and work hard again. That's life. Nobody's a one day millionaire only the next day, you have to borrow or loan or make amends? I don't know. Life's hard for so many of us. 

With the thousands of workers being terminated everyday and thousands of people to millions of people complaining about high cost of living...don't really know where those people are getting their extra sum of money or what kind of jobs they had. But maybe they are truly rich or wealthy and they like to splurge on their wealth. Good for them. Do it while you have the time and money. Do it while you still have time to enjoy it otherwise, stay at the convenience of your home and be happy the way it is. Be contented and strive to be happy with what you have. 

Me? I'm happy watching too many shark movies: SHARK BAIT, SWIM, SHARK ATTACK, MEGALODON RISING, In To The Blue,  SHARKNADO, Shark Encounters of the Third Kind. OMG!!!! A lot of vicious sharks.

Know what? I'm craving for fresh crabs and herring!

Water

 I think the hottest day was yesterday. It was 32 degrees Celsius and no amount of electric fan could alleviate the heat. High humidity. I advised my hubby to water-sprinkle the lawn outside and that at least could moisten the atmospheric situation. However, watering the lawn nowadays is prohibited as in water conservation is being implemented in our city. Once every other day is supposedly the practical way but no longer applies. The water is so precious now that every household is allowed to sprinkle their lawn once every week. No wonder the lawns, and vegetation in our neighborhood are getting tinder dry. Our lawn turf is still green with few streaks of brown-yellow spots. It's okay there's nothing we can do with restriction especially when water is involve. 

Did you hear about water in Canada will be on "metered" billing in the future? For what and why?

I remember way back when we first moved to Fort McKinley and how my family built our first family home and how we love being there because of the abundance of acacia trees, the lush green vegetation, the freshness of the air, the breeze freely flowing and the houses built like rows in perfect order arrangement following strict regulations about building requirements as in military ordinance, water flows freely from the faucet to the shower heads. Water is in abundance. Years passed by...just within six years suddenly water became hot commodity and water not flowing anymore in those pipelines and that caused so much chaotic and conflict. The population of people and new infrastructures within that area caused the restriction in the water system and the only possible solution is the ration of water. There are certain schedule or time schedule where certain designated areas where homes are allowed to store water for their drinking. washing, and how they want their water is used. Would you believe such process will happen when you are regularly paying for water and you don't get the right amount? 

In a country where water is in abundance and wonder why water is restricted wonder why the cause of such restriction? 

How water is stored? How water is accumulated through the water reservoir, down to the many bodies of water: ocean, seas, river, lakes, canals, bays, to the streams to the ponds. Water evaporates and turn into air (oxygen), there will be precipitation... The evaporation and condensation and all the chemical process lead to positive and negative energy in the sky in the atmosphere suddenly thunder and lightning strikes... downpour happened like miracle and its raining once again. The heavy rain became raging storm and hurricane and there's so much water flooding the whole earth. And you think there's no water. There is so much water, the only problem is how you can turn dirty rain water into safe drinking water for everyone to be happy about.

BIG FISH & Big Fat Cash Cow

 Is it true that the METAVerse, Google & Facebook wont be carrying any news from Canada because of the legal actions imposed or ban whatever included in the Bill C 18. I don't really know what the complete story about it as they complicate things. Each one of them have reasons why and they are exercising their rights, so be it. You can still watch news on your TV channels for news and or websites intended for those news networks as in they really don't need to be carried by Facebook or any social networks. Besides, what do you miss from the news? Nothing.

It's all WILDFIRES! It's what the hell that wildfires always been the news happening in Canada.

The never stop, uncontrollable wildfires!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there something that would change the course of time and the news? Wildfires in Canada for what and why? Because of lightning? Evacuation here and there and the population explosion never stop as in the population of migrants keep increasing because of wildfires? Something doesn't add up here. Something is very wrong with this kind of news. 

There are many homeless refugees on the streets of Ontario, Vancouver, and other big cities. I don't even know if they are true news or fake news or made up news as in fabricated to gain sympathy or just that one of those social experiments. 

Then suddenly wildfires got buried under the rubles of lies and flash floods happened and recently the legal separation of the PM Justin Trudeau and Sophie Gregoire was in the news. Because it was featured on instagram (?) and news channels on TV and internet also carried the news as controversial as it is because their almost perfect marriage of 18 years over. Really? I don't know. Is that really a true real news? It could be a political strategy.

In unity there is strength. In dis-unity one can survive. MATRIX.

Just like the indictment of former Pres. Donald Trump's for how many times he is being persecuted. OMG! He might become a hero and a saint. LOL. Don't persecute too much or prosecute that big fat guy...It might bite you in the ass. He's such a big fish, you know. Big fish and fat cash cow for politics.

Global Warming or Global ThermoDynamics

 What's really the cause of  global warming on planet earth?

Do you think it's natural or man made? Could it be that the reason for global warming is the melting of massive amount of metals such as iron, steel, carbon, glass and plastic all these materials being used for building and constructions for all the infrastructure you bet the high heat imposed on such method or process of turning raw materials into what it become the result of what we are experiencing right now. 

Factories having to use extreme volume, high heat add up to the boiling temperature of the water in the ocean and other bodies of water. Volcanic activity and the sun's mighty rays and to include the extraction of gaseous substance... all of these provide the heatwave no one could ever expect that would be of concern until we passed out of oxygen in the atmosphere. I hope not.

An old movie once featured of such catastrophic explanation of what will happen if  uncontrollable global warming is felt. Movie 2012. The massive amount of pressure in the creation of gigantic sized mega vessels to survive the prophesied doomsday all along the doomsday was caused by the melting of steel, iron and all metals for the vessels. That's what it is. When all the minerals and composition of the soil, of the land was taken away there'll be soil erosion, earthquakes and floods. That the vessels or gigantic ships were  replacement for such land they enjoy to reside. Weird story. But who knows, maybe because the belief that the Earth is 70% water and 30% land so the inevitable path to exist and survive is the vessel that can carry millions of people. IF. Just in case that's the truth about the percentage of what the Earth is all about. 

Millions years ago. How old is the Earth depends on what is the latest percentage of water and latest percentage of land as of this writing? I don't know. The way how fast humans had accumulated garbage in just one day could create a mountain. If you know what I mean. Garbage are sorted out, recycled and some garbage just are waste and burned to ash. It is what it is and the burning of garbage volume to volume, tons per tons contributed to the global warming.
