"A Lesson From A Pebble"
*"A Lesson From A Pebble"* "Drop a pebble in the water and with just a splash it is gone; But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on, Spreading, spreading from the center, flowing on out to the sea. And there is no way of telling where the end is going to be.

Glyphosate Weed Killer Linked to Bee Deaths
The world’s most widely used weedkiller – used on over 85% of GM crops – may also be indirectly killing bees.

Scientists believe this is evidence that glyphosate might be contributing to the decline of honey bees and native bees around the world.

Trump's UN Speech: The Good, Bad, & The Ugly
How did President Trump do in his UN General Assembly speech? He got some unexpected laughs and did a good deal of bragging, but when it came to foreign policy there were huge disconnects from reality. Everyone must respect each other's sovereignty...but what about US troops in Syria? What about threats to overthrow Venezuela? Former CIA officer Phil Giraldi joins today's Liberty Report to chew on Trump's speech...

Thomas Berry, "The Meadow Across the Creek"
*"The Meadow Across the Creek"* by Thomas Berry "I was a young person then, some twelve years old. My family was moving from a more settled part of a Southern town out to the edge of town where the new house was still being built. The house, not yet finished, was situated on a slight incline. Down below was a small creek and there across the creek was a meadow. It was an early afternoon in May when I first looked down over the scene and saw the meadow. The field was covered with lilies rising above the thick grass. A magic moment, this experience gave to my life something, I know n... more »
