His virgin birth guaranteed His genealogical uniqueness on the paternal side because His stepfather Joseph had no part in His conception, and He was miraculously conceived without the use of Mary's ovum. If Mary's ovum had been used, Jesus would have inherited our sinful nature and consequently would have needed confession, repentance and cleansing. He needed none of those.  As far as we know, He never offered a sacrifice in the temple, and He did not confess, nor pray for His own sins; rather He forgave others. He was a man. He was the God-man. Jesus obviously did not inherit the sinful nature, thus it seems reasonable that God did not use Mary's ovum in the incarnation.  If the Creator is not omnipotent, then He is not Creator at all.  Since the resurrection is a fact, the virgin birth is also a fact, and it is just as plausible to believe the incarnation without the use of either the male sperm or female ovum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus was raised under the Mosaic system, which had been thoroughly compromised by the Jews.  The Jewish religion was born in Babylon hundreds of years after Moses, and developed into Rabbinism known then as Pharisaism and today as Talmudism. An Israelite as part of the Mosaic system, could adopt the religion of the Pharisees (Jewishness) but many did not. The New Testament does not indicate that Joseph and Mary adopted Pharisaism (Judaism).  The whole issue has been clouded by modern Jewish leaders, causing even their own people to misunderstand it. They have found it convenient to continue the deception so that today, when the masses think of Jews they automatically equate the term with "Israel." With the religiousolitical state established in 1948, it further strengthened the international confusion of "Israel and Jew." My expressed views should not be categorized as "anti-Semitic." I try to speak the truth, when I make mistakes, if I am notified, I will correct them. A difference of opinion is not necessarily a mistake, unless expediency is the controlling factor. The cliche that the "end justifies the means" is the biggest lie ever spread abroad, and until the end of days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Locally, there is no clearer proof of the effectiveness of a blanket of hidden dark and evil obfuscation, with which valley Democratic influences have been able to keep the truth about their activities from being know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But to go on with other points. Young Democrats and Howard Dean supporters who have been posting on various web log are a prime examples. The best informed authorities say that there are at least thirty individual Democrats dedicated to the web log ring operating in the valley and state, who have received training from the state party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Everyone is too busy trying to make a living. Most people are so preoccupied paying the taxes to keep social programs going, they are unaware the social programs are destroying our culture, and religious values. "Peace to all unless peace is required at the expense of truth." In the light of present extremist attitudes regarding politically correct fads, no one is safe from excoriation. There is a madness in the land that probably will have to fun its course, and in its wake will be left the ruins of reputation and misjudged motives. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Silence is not golden. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Revelations are there for all to read. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111727542075553253?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111727542075553253/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111727542075553253&amp;isPopup=true' title='35 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111727542075553253'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111727542075553253'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/silence-is-not-golden.html' title='Silence is not golden'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>35</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111727444303975848</id><published>2005-05-28T05:56:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-28T06:00:43.046-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Rules of Golf Moscow Country Club</title><content type='html'>1. Each congressman, staffer and lobbyist player shall furnish his own equipment for play.&lt;br /&gt;2. Play must be permitted by the owner of the hole.&lt;br /&gt;3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole and keep the balls out.&lt;br /&gt;4. For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft. Congressmen are permitted to check shaft stiffness before play begins.&lt;br /&gt;5. Congressmen reserve the right to restrict club length to avoid damage to the hole.&lt;br /&gt;6. The object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until the congressman is satisfied that play is completed. Failure to do so may result in being denied permission to play the course again.&lt;br /&gt;7. It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately upon arrival at the course. The experienced player will normally take time to admire the Moscow Country club entire course with special attention to well-formed bunkers.&lt;br /&gt;8. Players are cautioned not to mention other, like St. Andrews courses they have played, or are currently playing to the Russian owner of the course being played. Angry course owners have been known to damage congressmens'  equipment and reputations for this reason.&lt;br /&gt;9. Congressmen are encouraged to bring proper rain gear for their own protection.&lt;br /&gt;10. Congressmen should ensure that the match has been properly scheduled, particularly when a new course is being played for the first time. Previous congressmen have been known to become irate if they discover someone else playing on what they considered to be a private course.&lt;br /&gt;11. Congressmen should not assume a course is in shape for play at all times. Some players may be embarrassed if they find the course to be temporarily under repair. Players are advised to be extremely tactful in this situation. More advanced players will find alternative means of play when this is the case.&lt;br /&gt;12. The Moscow Country Club is responsible for manicuring and pruning any bush around the hole to allow for improved viewing of alignment with, and approach to the hole.&lt;br /&gt;13. Players are advised to obtain the course owner's permission before attempting to play the back nine.&lt;br /&gt;14. Slow play is encouraged. However, players should be prepared to proceed at a quicker pace, at least temporarily, at the course owner's request.&lt;br /&gt;15. It is considered outstanding performance, time permitting, to play the same hole several times in one match.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bag your balls and putter on out of here! It always pays to keep your club head covered. Beware playing the front nine, you could wind up being accused of spying. He was using his fairway woodie. He scored a hole in one. He was playing in deep rough. He had a four stroke average. He chose not to heed Jesse Jackson's advice: "Stay oud de bushes." This Abramoff guy puts the CAD in Caddie. Okay, I guess he likes a firm shaft. This congressman gives new meaning to "ball washer." How many dimples are there on his balls? Ask Susan H.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many shots are in a bottle of whiskey? Don't play with fire and combustibles! Lest you'll become a fire-breather.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OD&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111727444303975848?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111727444303975848/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111727444303975848&amp;isPopup=true' title='21 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111727444303975848'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111727444303975848'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/rules-of-golf-moscow-country-club.html' title='Rules of Golf Moscow Country Club'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>21</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111675997369110385</id><published>2005-05-22T07:02:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-22T07:06:13.693-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Walker spy ring and the KGB</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;The Viginian-Pilot newspaper reports this week on the Walker Spies and where they are imprisoned. Call it the long wait. Not having any sympathy for spies I have even less sympathy for Oleg Kalugin who claims to be retired as a Soviet KGB general. General Kalugin rose quickly in the First Chief Directorate and became the head of worldwide foreign conterintelligence (Line KR). He served at the center of some of the most important espionage cases of his period, one of which was the Walker spy ring which credited Kalugin with his aggressive operational methodology. Not good enough. They were caught and we should be asking ourselves who did we really catch? Why isn't Kalugin in prison for his role in the Walker spy ring?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kalugin has taught at the The Centre for Counterintelligence and Security Studies (note; the spelling of 'Centre'). Kalugin has also taught at the Catholic University and travels throughout the country lecturing. There's much more to this picture. While the Walker spy ring wiles away the hours of their broken lives in prison, Kalugin continues to represent himself as a reformed intelligence officer spy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Federal Security Service (FSB) Director Nikolai Patrushev has charged that foreign governments are using non-governmental organizations for espionage and to promote changes of government in former Soviet republics. According to the Itar-TASS news agency, Patrushev has named the U.S. Peace Corps, which pulled out of Russia in 2003 amid spying allegations, the Saudi Red Crescent, and British and Kuwaiti aid groups among the NGOs possibly used by foreign intelligence services. Peace Corps spokeswoman Barbara Daly dismissed Patrushev’s charges as “completely baseless, without merit and not true,” the Associated Press reports.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week the Pentagon released proposals for a consolidated brig at the Naval Support Activity Northwest Annex in Chesapeake. It is believed that it will make the best use of taxpayers dollars by creating five joint facilities across the country. Although the defense department recommendations won't be finalized until later this year the approximate cost of building the facility in Chesapeake Virginia will be $14 million but the cost to the environment has not yet been determined. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More importantly we may be paying more for our national security than has ever been accounted for just having the likes of Oleg Kalugin and Yevgeni Primacov in our nations Capitol. No doubt Kalugin knew more about the USS Americas cruises than many of our sailors. Under a highly secret sinking the CVN66  America went down last weekend in the Atlantic. I attended her commissioning in Norfolk in 1965. Somewhere in the Atlantic after a  classified test to discover what it would take to scuttle a behemoth the size of the America she was sunk. She was the largest warship ever sunk by any means in war or peace and hopefully her replacement will also be commissioned 'America' in 2008. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111675997369110385?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111675997369110385/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111675997369110385&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111675997369110385'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111675997369110385'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/walker-spy-ring-and-kgb.html' title='Walker spy ring and the KGB'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111660446352052065</id><published>2005-05-20T11:52:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-20T11:54:23.523-04:00</updated><title type='text'>middle east oil and the euro</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Unfortunately there are people in the Pentagon as well as the CIA that don't use the information they get because it may break their 'rice bowls'. It's clear to me that the Soviet Union took thousands of Afghan POWs back to their bloc and trained them to be terrorist insurgents. These trained Afghan insurgents are methodically taking out our forces with weapons not only bought and paid for by Saddam in the first Gulf War but they're using newer weapons in their armed insurgency against the US.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the way Russia can force us out of Southeast Asia and at the same time reduce us to a superpower rather than hyperpower. The leftist media are trying to increase the diffidents to stir the pot against Putin when he's really taking orders as Gorbachev's puppet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile back at the bank, the Euro is being salted all over the world to replace the dollar as the OPEC trading vehicle which is what Saddam had agreed to all along.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of getting along, my VA congressman cheated on his wife and children with a married woman who served in the VA general assembly, both he and the adulteress divorced their spouses, then he and the adulteress themselves got married. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;THAT's something fit for Springer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111660446352052065?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111660446352052065/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111660446352052065&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111660446352052065'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111660446352052065'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/middle-east-oil-and-euro.html' title='middle east oil and the euro'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111640951841973171</id><published>2005-05-18T05:42:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-18T05:45:18.423-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Born in the USA, but educated in Russia</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Rock &amp; Roll icon Bruce Springsteen appeared at the Patriot Center over the weekend.

Working with other organizations sharing similar political views and the Virginia Club for Growth’s PAC, I pledge to do my utmost to help elect representatives who stand firm on lowering the tax burden on working Virginia families and cutting back the unprecedented growth of state and local governments.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rodokanakis replaces Peter Ferrara who is now working with Free Enterprise Fund as the Director of the Social Security Project where he has been leading the fight to establish individual private accounts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Virginia Club for Growth is comprised of Virginia citizens and taxpayers dedicated to fighting for lower taxes, reduced regulatory burdens, controlled government spending, and other policies that will expand overall economic growth and prosperity for the working people of Virginia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111627857603553964?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111627857603553964/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111627857603553964&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111627857603553964'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111627857603553964'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/virginia-club-for-growth.html' title='VIRGINIA CLUB FOR GROWTH'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111610348485429206</id><published>2005-05-14T16:39:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-14T18:39:32.860-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Something is rotten in the state of Denmark!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;It smells like the work of the New Underworld Order. It's five minutes to midnight and the clock is ticking. Before to long we'll all be trained to meet and greet our forefathers and relive the Battle of Jericho in the final fight between good and evil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the BBC: "Denmark's Supreme Court will be asked this week to close down one of America's most secretive and strategically important military bases, to enable a group of Inuits to return to their traditional hunting grounds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1968 a B-52 bomber, carrying nuclear weapons, crashed into the sea, leaking plutonium into Greenland's waters. Ironically, the Americans had to ask the Inuit hunters for help in their search and rescue efforts."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Denmark's Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen is a strong supporter of President Bush's successful military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. But the French and Germans and Russians, who opposed the Middle Eastern wars for Democracy, have been influencing the US oil barrel cost with their eurodollars in support of the New Underworld Order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The war has never been about oil, but the value of the United States currency. President Bush saved the US dollar from an economic free-fall on the world market by destroying the political cartel established when the Iraqi Minister, Saddam Hussein, who signed an exclusive oil trade agreements with the French, German and Russians. At the time, the new European Commonwealth hailed him as an Arab Nationalist and humble servant to Islam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the United States, Democrats John Kerry and Howard Dean opposed the President's war because they also support world government. Money laundering investments under the guise of the United Nations food for oil program have been sanctioned by Unitarians and Masons and Democrats in the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poor, under-educated desert nomads and old-bearded religious fanatics are not to blame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the honorable Condi Rice is an expert on Soviet intrigue, I certainly hope that the State Department is monitoring the eurodollar cash flow in the Middle East.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The New Underworld Order bank account is being used to buy guns and explosives to harm our US troops. It isn't enough that we have to deal with the influence of Islam on our society, and throughout the world, but we're soon going to have to start dealing with the likes of the Biblical Antichrist. I think you will agree with me in my estimate of the New Underworld Order progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wake up America, why do you think you're paying more and more at the gas pump each day?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Christian friends, please heed my written warnings. Because even in easy-going, and materialistic America there must still be a few Arnold von Winkelrieds left; men who are willing to gather all of the enemy's spears they can reach into their bodies, so that their compatriots can break through the hostile phalanx.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If things are as bad in our government as I say they are, you'd think there would be some patriot left inside of us, who would be willing to give up his career, sacrifice everything if need be and tell the American people the truth?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Open your eyes and let the light shine forth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111610348485429206?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111610348485429206/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111610348485429206&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111610348485429206'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111610348485429206'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/something-is-rotten-in-state-of.html' title='Something is rotten in the state of Denmark!'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111609611237829208</id><published>2005-05-14T14:41:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-14T14:41:52.490-04:00</updated><title type='text'>More on the BRAC List</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;The BRAC list was just posted and where our national security force comes from needs to be addressed in moral terms as well as budgetary constraints. Defining homosexual orientation for members of our military with no moral overtones is a very dangerous defense for America's future, and the communities that were not on the BRAC closure list but scheduled for further expansion may be exposed to an ever increasing homosexual political agenda.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Now, if any member of our armed forces told the world that he was a rapist, and has known it since he was a teenager; or that he was a child molester, or given to bestiality, or to theft, or to sadomasochism, or to wife abuse, one hopes that the our military and civilian leaders may recognize how defenseless we would become. It is hard to conceive of any member of the Navy saying "he is sexually attracted to goats, and has known it since he was a teenager," or "he is sexually excited by hurting women, and has known it since he was a teenager." A drug dealer is not a moral person, nor is a prostitute nor a dominatrix, simply because his or her clients seek out his services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;An act is right or wrong if God says it is right or wrong. He says that murder, theft and adultery are wrong (Romans 13:9). He also says that homosexuality is wrong (cf. 1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10, among others).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;The media still usually frowns on murder and theft; they're not so sure about adultery. Homosexuality, however, is currently exempt from all criticism and the "Don't Ask Don't Tell" is a violation in ethical and Biblical proportions. And this is where it matters in order to maintain a strong military. If a sailor cannot figure out that homosexuality is contrary to nature (Romans 1:26-27), and if he does not care that it is contrary to God's will (1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10), then we know from the outset that his moral compass is tragically out of whack. whether he's on shore or at sea. He's unreliable. Like any broken analog clock, he'll be right every so often -- but it will be a happy coincidence, nothing more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;We want our elected officials, our legislators, and our military leadership to understand justice. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;But Proverbs 28:5a tells us that "Evil men do not understand justice." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;What defines a man as "evil"? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Opposition to the person and word of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111609611237829208?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111609611237829208/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111609611237829208&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111609611237829208'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111609611237829208'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/more-on-brac-list.html' title='More on the BRAC List'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111602271612100614</id><published>2005-05-13T18:14:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-13T18:20:02.313-04:00</updated><title type='text'>The Pentagon List of Recommended US Base Closings</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Take a long look at the US base closing list announced today. Take another look and count up the finance centers. Ask yourself if the paper files will be destroyed as well. The overflowing River Styx and the dam is closed. The hidden criminalization and blackmail crisis obviously is pointing to the New Underworld Order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Discussing the obsolete base situation in Virginia is important, but please ask yourself why all the "Defense Finance Centers" are being closed? How do you follow the money trail?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can the old communist guard, the Russian elitist, control the BRAC?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Closing US bases are on a separate list from our overseas bases. Closing our bases at home is a little like cloud seeding and there's a constant debate as to whether cloud seeding induces rain and snow, suppresses hail or clears up patches of fog. As a military consultant to Homeland Security a former director of the Russian KGB Yevgeni Primakov may have his fingers in more than dry ice and silver iodide when it comes down to our base closings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The pressure from him on closing our base facilities will be unlikely detected but could have a greater pressure from him to shut down our military facilities without so much as a thunderstorm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For this, and other highly advantageous reasons, the New Underground Order is calling a halt to US military bases proposed for the formal communist satellites in Eastern Europe, and has began to extend its economic power through so-called "neutralist" Western European countries through Free-Trade Agreements, the WTO and the World Bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Pacific Rim is the next order of business for the New Underworld Order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a Christian, my friends sometimes ask me how on earth I can speak ill of Indonesia, now being eighty percent destroyed by the tragic tsunami. But eighty percent of the Indonesians are devout and fanatical Moslems, who hate Christian America with every fiber of their being. And those in Indonesia are being held in line in support of the New Underworld Order plan, and gradually brought under police state rule, despite their futile and sometimes suicidal religious opposition, just as surely as were the Christian people of Eastern Europe before them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How much longer before the Antichrist is awakened to rule the New Underworld Order and enslave us to his maniacal damnation?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Pray for our deliverance from this evil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a title="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/nation/articles/base_list051305.html" href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/nation/articles/base_list051305.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/nation/articles/base_list051305.html&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111602271612100614?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111602271612100614/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111602271612100614&amp;isPopup=true' title='19 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111602271612100614'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111602271612100614'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/pentagon-list-of-recommended-us-base.html' title='The Pentagon List of Recommended US Base Closings'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>19</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111598695390913714</id><published>2005-05-13T08:17:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-13T08:22:33.916-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Sodomy Campaigns &amp;

Lowell Feld is also a contributing editor of the socialist Intervention Magazine which we should readily admit, is a brillant, farseeing, realistic, and majestically simple way to destroy democracy in the United States of American. But the editor, has a "Nancy-boy fixation" and weakness because he jealously writes about rich older women, such as Ann Landers and Martha Stewart and Anne Coulter. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Nevertheless, Feld is a penetrating pickle lover in Virginia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lennin died in 1924, but Lowell Feld is an instrument of the strategy for his communist conquest in America and beyond. These Virginia Democrats use the philosophy of socialism as a misinformation weapon, in this struggle, whenever they can and for whatever it is worth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Throughout Virginia history the bearer of political truths has been a most unpopular person. So I am certainly am not seeking garlands of popularity at present. For I have vowed to spend my whole life spreading political truth, every day, everywhere I can.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the truth I bring you is simple, incontrovertible, and deadly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lowell and his RaisingCain.com staff are "penetrating pickle lovers" who support the Democratic candidate for Governor, Tim Kaine and his extremely liberal agenda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How sick is his published garbage?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a title="http://www.911digitalarchive.org/objects/21.html" href="http://www.911digitalarchive.org/objects/21.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;http://www.911digitalarchive.org/objects/21.html&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sexual rage and self-loathing in the Middle East drives hate and violence to America. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;By Lowell Feld&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not Pretty for Boys Either &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;If the situation for girls and women in Saudi Arabia and Egypt is terrible, it’s not exactly “paradise” for boys and men either. For starters, Saudi and Egyptian boys spend their formative years witnessing the degradation and repression of their mothers (is there ever a “Happy Mother’s Day” in Egypt and Saudi Arabia?). We can only guess at the damage this does to these boys’ psyches. And when they reach adolescence and young adulthood, the situation doesn’t get much better, as the (now) young men confront a world of unemployment, political repression, and a dearth of legal outlets for their hyperactive hormones. Meanwhile, Arab boys and men are held to strict, if hypocritical, standards of hyper-masculinity and sexuality. Intriguingly, Mohammed Atta’s father, in an interview after 9/11, scoffed at the notion that his “girlish” son could have carried out the attacks and railed against the moral depravity of the United States, especially “homosexual marriages.” This obsession and disgust with male effeminacy and homosexuality is intriguing, given the repression of heterosexual outlets for young Arab men.&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly, despite legal, religious, and social prohibitions against it, male homosexual activity exists in the Arab world, as it does everywhere else. However, in the Arab world, homosexuality remains shrouded in secrecy and taboo. Various scholars, such as Everett Rowson and Bruce Dunne (see his 1998 article, “Power and Sexuality in the Middle East”), have concluded that homosexuality -- like all other sexuality -- in the Arab world is focused heavily on the issues of male power and dominance. According to Rowson, the sexual ethos of male dominance and what he calls “the centrality of penetration” is "broadly representative of Middle Eastern societies from the 9th century to the present." Rowson also cites “the radical disjunction of active and passive roles in male homosexuality." Along these lines, an unwritten rule in the Arab world is that homosexual sex is generally all right as long as one is the sexually active partner (i.e., the penetrator). And it is a commonly held view that only the man who is penetrated is considered to be truly "gay," since he has assumed the “submissive,” “female,” “weak” role. Thus, sexual dominance and power go together in the Arab world, with the man expected to be more powerful than the woman and always in the active, dominant, “penetrating” role. To do otherwise would jeopardize his status as a “real man,” which would be shameful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111568748182531996?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111568748182531996/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111568748182531996&amp;isPopup=true' title='24 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111568748182531996'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111568748182531996'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/lowell-penetrating-pickle-lover.html' title='Lowell the penetrating pickle lover'/><author><name>Old Denmark</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14162575348596664958'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>24</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111557517476572687</id><published>2005-05-08T13:59:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-08T13:59:34.770-04:00</updated><title type='text'>we must destroy hud</title><content type='html'>hud grants are being used to open up methadone clinics in the rural areas and bath houses in our inner cities. naturally, this spreads aids and filthy needles, as well as hiv.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;president bush has rightfully proposed to send hud back to hell. what does this have to do with virginia? well hud employs lots of workers in northern virginia, and these workers are converted to homosexuality as a requirement for being hired. that's not something the liberal media will tell you, but i heard it on the michael savage show last week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;not only that, but hud offers free day care to their employees. pure socialism. the government shouldn't be helping anyone in any way what so ever, and if they do, it's socialism. the government is the problem, much like the chinese people were the problem when they brought over that plague that killed the chestnuts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i once applied for a hud grant. the grant would have build a listening station that would focus lazer beams at every unitarian church on the east coast. they rejected my proposal and sometimes i see men in dark cloaks following me late at night.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111557517476572687?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111557517476572687/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111557517476572687&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111557517476572687'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111557517476572687'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/we-must-destroy-hud.html' title='we must destroy hud'/><author><name>Pastor John</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='15376407825801925339'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111540771234725694</id><published>2005-05-06T14:49:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-06T17:00:21.356-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Left-wing Appalachian Taliban</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Naturally, ValleySense is facing extensive and malicious foul-mouthed attacks from both the open and the disgusted Learning Disabled Democrats, better known as the Left-wing Appalachian Taliban.

type='text'>National Day of Prayer - We need it</title><content type='html'>Today is the National Day of Prayer.  We need to pray.  One of the top items on our prayer lists today should be the Christian teachers over at Waterman Elementary School in Harrisonburg.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems that their Principal, Mr. Painter, has done it again.  After banning Christmas decorations, he now tells his teachers he doesn't want them out around the flagpole praying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They'll be in one of the classrooms, instead.  Let's remember them and ask for strength and protection for them, and don't forget to give thanks for the faithful remnant in our schools.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111530612008802011?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111530612008802011/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111530612008802011&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111530612008802011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111530612008802011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/national-day-of-prayer-we-need-it.html' title='National Day of Prayer - We need it'/><author><name>La Orilla</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13923623627086719080</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='08711914369874184558'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111525789546530208</id><published>2005-05-04T21:23:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-04T21:51:35.476-04:00</updated><title type='text'>We've Got us a Real Live E-nigma</title><content type='html'>I'm happy to announce that the one and only &lt;strong&gt;Pastor John&lt;/strong&gt; has come for a little peace in the Valley.  We're real pleased that he's here to give us provincial valley hicks a little broader appeal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor John really knows a lot of stuff.  He's been to southeast Asia, and knows stuff about the freemasons and the Scientologists and the Christian Scientists and the Pope.  He knows who's really behind the goings-on in the meat industry, and knows to call General Motors when the Internet goofs up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best thing about Pastor John is that he's willing to inform us.  Not in that creepy, condescending, liberal Democrat kind of way, but with that clear, powerful, annointed truth that he must have picked up in seminary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His inspired writings have developed &lt;a href="http://virginiarepublican.blogspot.com/2005/05/3000-hits-per-day.html"&gt;quite a following&lt;/a&gt;, and we really appreciate the good Reverend agreeing to spread the love.  Maybe, one day, we can get Pastor John to come to Harrisonburg for a revival.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of the Pastor's readers &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12507334&amp;postID=111523648240713973"&gt;wonder if he's real at all&lt;/a&gt;.  All I've got to say is that his &lt;a href="http://virginiarepublican.blogspot.com/2005/05/homosexual-immigrant-agenda.html"&gt;writings&lt;/a&gt; are really real.  If it does turn out that he's really the head coach of the Albanian Gerbil Olympics team, we at Valley Sense will weather it well, and will probably score lots of extra points for our noble display of tolerance in adding a diverse viewpoint to our Editorial Board.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, we hope to start racking up some of PJ's web hits that we've been coveting.  Maybe, we'll get our own little fella shouting "TAKE THIS BLOG DOWN" as the &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12507334&amp;postID=111523648240713973"&gt;first comment&lt;/a&gt; to every new post.  That would be cool. We might even achieve the lofty goal of qualifying as a &lt;a href="http://vaconservative.com/archives/2005/05/03/thanks-for-the-hospitality/#comments"&gt;trailer park blog&lt;/a&gt;.  If we do, we'll invite Will Vehrs to help round out his stature as the leading intellect in Virginia political bloggery.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111525789546530208?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111525789546530208/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111525789546530208&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111525789546530208'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111525789546530208'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/weve-got-us-real-live-e-nigma.html' title='We&apos;ve Got us a Real Live E-nigma'/><author><name>La Orilla</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13923623627086719080</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='08711914369874184558'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111525201239208878</id><published>2005-05-04T20:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-05-04T20:13:32.396-04:00</updated><title type='text'>homosexuals lured me into their grasp</title><content type='html'>what is this?

He calls this party activist up on the phone and invites him to lunch. Just making chit-chat, the GOP guy asks Lowell what he thinks about the flap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ever prepared with an important and relevant factoid to illuminate an issue for those of us who without his guidance would be unable to comprehend such matters, Fulk informs the Republican that he subscribes to the findings of a recent, groundbreaking study performed by a group of highly-acclaimed Japanese researchers who have unlocked the secrets of being gay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems that, in Japan anyway, &lt;strong&gt;the incidence of homosexuality is directly proportionate to the population's consumption of red meat&lt;/strong&gt;. Something to do with the growth hormones and steroids and such the cattle industry uses to produce the choicest cuts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see, while we lower-order beings are bickering about whether loafer-lightness is inherent or a behavioral choice, Lowell knows its neither. He understands that the poor souls are victims of the Outback/Texas Steakhouse/Omaha Mail-Order Meat Company conspiracy. (So, go easy on them, Pastor John.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There you have it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Half the story, anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lowell won't divulge the real hidden impetus behind the liberals' all-out promotional efforts to normalize homosexuality and to raise up a new generation of hobby-sodomists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evil Corporate America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This time, though, the lurking shadow figure is not Haliburton. Rather, it's &lt;strong&gt;Archer Daniels Midland. &lt;/strong&gt;Truth be told, ADM is just using the Deaniacs to to develop new markets for the the R&amp;amp;D investments they've made for a shining future in &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;gerbil farming&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shhh....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12539266-111498444269809771?l=valleysense.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/feeds/111498444269809771/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12539266&amp;postID=111498444269809771&amp;isPopup=true' title='15 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111498444269809771'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12539266/posts/default/111498444269809771'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://valleysense.blogspot.com/2005/05/lay-off-red-meat.html' title='Lay off the Red Meat'/><author><name>La Orilla</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13923623627086719080</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='08711914369874184558'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>15</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12539266.post-111486171382400060</id><published>2005-04-30T07:23:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-04-30T12:49:04.286-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Finding a Direction</title><content type='html'>I had not really planned to steer a blog on my own, but the availability of the Fulk Campaign's former mouthpiece proved irresistible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will exhaust some of my precious gray matter over the next couple of days determining a direction for the publication.
