Are you planning that European vacation? You might wish to reconsider.

On October 12, the EU and Great Britain initiate their new Entry/Exit System. All travelers from non-EU countries will need to provide biometric data, including facial scans and fingerprints, along with the normal passports. They state that your data will be retained for THREE YEARS, but we can guess that the data will really be …

China turning into a Potemkin Country?

I came across this story in the Epoch Times about a mostly-unknown crisis in Communist China. Their population is rapidly aging, and since the huge re-estate collapse their "social insurance" program is in big trouble. Due to the disastrous one-child policy, which led to female infanticide as well as a shrinking overall population, there is …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #362: Sports and Games

I'm the world's biggest klutz, so I don't engage in many sports myself, but I have no problem watching, especially when the sport is squash. Hubby is a competitive squash player, and together we have been to many tournaments since we met in 2001. The farthest away we have been for a tournament is Vancouver, …

On Western Civilization

For the past 60 years, the Left has controlled public education and the legacy media. They have been indoctrinating children (schools) and adults (media), to believe that all cultures are equal, and that Western countries and cultures have been oppressing the rest of the world for centuries. So let’s take a look at some manifestations …

Were they all showing the same videos? Were all the news stories and social media posts emphasizing how "peaceful" all the activities were? Or, did they tell …

Archaeology vs Leftism in Australia

I came across an unusual story today, and wondered why I had not heard of it before. It seems that archaeologists in Australia discovered some very puzzling hominid fossils in their wilderness (most of the continent!). They have been studying those fossils for a while with no difficulties. This article and the comments on it …
