TV Propaganda

One of the things the communist party in the U.S.  have to do in order to take over this country is to pervert the thinking of the American public.  During the soviet union period of Russia, propaganda was used daily to make their people believe whatever they wanted — worse yet, it worked.

Fast-forward to today in the U.S.  Now ‘we’ are being subjected to propaganda daily!  Allow me to share just a few tidbits of propaganda I have collected by taking pictures of my TV screen after finding bizarre titles and synopsis narratives.

‘Kidnapped for Christ’ — What a title.!?  Here we have an example of how those ‘crazies’ with their bibles are abusing innocent children.

The point: Christians are bad!!

‘Warm Bodies’ — Zombies are typically viewed as a ‘bad thing’.  However, although very subtle, a zombie here is doing a good thing worthy of even gaining the love of a living woman..?

The point:  Bad is good  (Which is becoming a very common theme today.

‘Breakfast on Pluto’ — A young cross-dresser prostitute is ‘common enough’ to join a magician on stage to entertain people.

The point: Cross-dressing is perfectly ‘normal’.  Desensitize the public into believing perverse behavior is normal.

‘1492: Conquest of Paradise’ — How Columbus corrupted America.

Once again we have an example of how the people of this country are lead to believe that ‘we’ are evil.  How often have you heard of the U.S. referred to as the ‘imperialistic’ country?  Well, here’s yet another example of how our forefathers were the foundation of that evil.

The point: The United States and its people are evil.

‘The Great Martian War’ — You’re going to love this one!!

I actually watched part of this ‘documentary’ on the BBC channel while channel surfing.  At first I thought is a spoof.  But after a few minutes of watching very good cinema and life like depictions, it was difficult for me to discern if it was for real or not.  They even had British people interviewed who were present during the ‘Martian war’..?  At one point they brought a museum curator on to be interviewed to talk about ‘facts and evidence’ from that war.

This documentary was one and a half hours long.  And I couldn’t help but think how many of our less ‘enlightened’ people in this country would actually believe what they were seeing.  History is being perverted daily on the ‘History’ channel, H2, et al.

As fast as the wool is being pulled over the eyes of the public, my guess is they will be — as Lenin once said — ‘useful idiots’.

My action point is, look for propaganda in your life.  Think ‘critically’ and don’t just accept ridiculous propaganda like this without running it past your B.S. filter.

Nuclear Blackout

The following article is taken from The Blaze website.  It describes probably the most serious threat to the U.S. over any other to date.  Why?  Because it does not require a protracted ‘war’, any third world country can launch such a threat against us, and we are NOT prepared!

The even more serious threat is, it would take out a conservative estimate of 90 million people in this country — one bomb.  If that isn’t scary, I don’t know what is.  What is worse, congress submitted a bill ‘five years ago’ to address hardening our electrical grid.  To date what have they done?  Nothing!!?  One must really wonder what the heck these people are thinking..?

And by the way, if you are thinking this is just the ravings of one or two ‘crazies’, think again.  There are more than a few U.S. Representatives in this country that not only believe in this threat, they have stated so publicly as it being a serious threat.

And lastly, we are currently in a solar flare heightened level period.  We are facing the possibility of getting hit with a flare the size of the last significant one received in the late 1980’s.  Given that occurred today, it would be the same as an EMP being detonated 300+ miles up.  Meaning, the entire continent would be lights out for a minimum of 1+ years.

The main point here is, if the government isn’t going to prepare, maybe you should!?


The Blaze

The potential destruction of the United States by an EMP attack is more than a theory. Our most lethal enemies — Iran, North Korea, China and Russia — have the means and quite possibly the desire to knock out our entire power grid. They’ve even conducted practice runs to test our vulnerabilities. And we can be sure the new caliphate in the Middle East will be happy to play along.

So why isn’t our government doing everything it can to prevent this nightmare?

In his cover story for the September issue of TheBlaze Magazine, Larry Kelley, author of “Lessons From Fallen Civilizations: Can a Bankrupt America Survive the Current Islamic Threat,” details not only the technological threat of an EMP weapon — a topic readers of TheBlaze are likely very familiar with — but also the bad actors who have us in their sights. Kelley explains both the capabilities our enemies have and the test runs they’ve actually performed.

The good news: There is a way to protect the country. Will our leaders listen?

FINAL - EMP cover story open - September 2014 - TheBlaze magazine

When France fell to Nazis in June 1940, Soviet Premier Vyacheslav Molotov cabled Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop to congratulate him on “the splendid victory of the Wehrmacht.” In the dark days of 1940, President Roosevelt watched the defeat and evacuation of the British at Dunkirk and the capitulation of the French to the Nazi war machine and confided to his staff that he worried the vast populations of Europe, Eurasia and the Far East would soon coalesce into one vast global enemy able to “hold a gun to America’s head.”

THE NEW AXIS OF EVIL

A new consortium composed of America’s most maniacal and most powerful enemies—Iran, North Korea, Russia and China—are in the final stages of developing an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapon and a clandestine delivery system capable of destroying the United States in the blink of an eye. Moreover, there is unmistakable evidence that they have already conducted a dry run of the attack.

In early May, Dr. Peter Vincent Pry, a member of the Congressional EMP Commission and the executive director of the Task Force on National Homeland Security, issued some dire warnings in his testimony before Congress. Pry, a former member of the CIA, warned of the dangers of an EMP from a single nuclear weapon detonated between 25 and 300 miles over the lower 48 states. He said that it would act like ten thousand lightning bolts and permanently knock out the nation’s entire electrical grid—a scenario The Heritage Foundation has been talking about for years. Airplanes would fall from the sky; most cars would be inoperable. Water, sewer and electrical devices would fail simultaneously. Systems of banking, energy, transportation, food production, water, emergency services and even cyberspace would collapse. Nine out of 10 Americans would die due to starvation, disease and societal collapse.

Both Russia and China already have advanced EMP weapons, close trade partnerships and, more importantly, interlocking alliances with the rabid rogue states of North Korea and Iran.

China is not only a patron of North Korea but is also its agent in Pyongyang’s nuclear weapon sales and proliferation. On June 20, in the Wall Street Journal, the Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ Claudia Rosett reported, “In April, the U.S. government offered a $5 million reward for help in apprehending a Chinese national, Li Fangwei, accusing him of running a sanctions-violating international procurement network out of China that has sold Iran both [North Korean-made] missile and nuclear-related materials. The U.S. has asked China to shut down this network since at least 2006, to no avail.

And in August, China confirmed the existence of its newest missile, the Dongfeng-41, capable of delivering nuclear warheads to the United States. The revelation was made just days after an independent blue-ribbon panel appointed by the Pentagon and Congress produced a bombshell report denouncing President Obama’s strategy for downsizing the American military. The assessment warns that the cuts will render America unable fight in multiple theaters simultaneously, specifically naming China, Russia, Iran and North Korea as rising challengers to American hegemony.

Additionally, Russia is a patron of the Assad regime in Syria, which is Alawite, a sect of Shiite Islam, and is closely allied with Iran. Syria was also secretly receiving help for years from North Korea to build a reactor at the remote area of Al Kibar on the Euphrates River. Nearing its completion, Israel destroyed the reactor in a September 2007 airstrike. Iran has tested scud missiles fired from freighters on the Caspian Sea, which also borders Russia and several former Soviet ’stans. Both Putin and Iran’s Khamenei have a common strategic objective—ejecting America from the region. …

And Tehran and Pyongyang have their own connections without their Moscow/Beijing sugar daddies’ direct involvement. Iranian nuclear scientists have reportedly attended North Korea’s nuclear weapon tests, and North Korean nuclear scientists are frequent visitors to nuclear facilities in Iran. These close allies not only have mutual defense treaties but, as Rosett pointed out, also are “drawn together by decades of weapons deals,” which go back to at least the 1980s “when North Korea hosted visits by Hasan Rouhani (now Iran’s president) and Ali Khamenei (Iran’s supreme leader since the death of Ayatollah Khomeini in 1989).”

DR. PRY: THINKING THE UNTHINKABLE

In an interview with Dr. Peter Pry conducted for this story, he didn’t pull any punches about the threat and our vulnerability. When asked about reports that the United States can’t detect an incoming EMP attack and probably wouldn’t be able to trace its source, Pry was clear about the seriousness of such a threat.

“For those of us on the Congressional EMP Commission, our nightmare scenario is a nuclear-armed scud missile launched from an unmarked freighter near our shores, because it wouldn’t give us enough time to detect it with missile defenses,” he said. “It could come from a direction where we are completely blind, like the Gulf of Mexico. And we wouldn’t know which nation launched it, because it’s coming off an anonymous freighter. And because it detonates high in the atmosphere, there’s no bomb debris so that you can do forensic analysis the way you would do in a city with glass, steel and concrete debris to determine where the bomb originated. Essentially, there are no fingerprints.”

Many Americans have no idea that North Korea has actually been making preparations for a future attack on the United States, Pry added, including “experimenting with that same scenario I just described to see what it could get away with.”

“Last July, there was a tramp freighter they sent into the Gulf of Mexico,” said Pry. “On board were two SA-2 nuclear-capable missiles on their launchers. They weren’t equipped with nuclear warheads, but they were the exact kind of missile you would need to do a short-range, high-altitude EMP attack to take out the U.S. grid. The only reason we found out about it was because, once they saw that they could bring the missiles in close to the U.S. [off our southern coast], they decided to see if they could get them through the Panama Canal. And that’s where we caught them. We found the two launchers under a few thousand bags of sugar.”

And that was not the only time that North Korea and its allies have tested their capabilities to attack America with an EMP weapon.

THE ENEMY OF MY ENEMY IS STILL MY ENEMY

In 2009, upon his release from Camp Bucca, Iraq, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, now the sultan of the new Islamic State, said to his American captors, “I’ll see you guys in New York City.”

Despite the fact that the Sunni-led ISIS is at war with the Shiite dominated Iraqi army, the fact remains that the Middle East is now swarming with terrorists, some with European and American passports, operating freely and openly inside the new terrorist caliphate, but also in Libya, Yemen and elsewhere.

Why does this president (and American military planners) assume that the new Axis of Evil would not outsource an EMP attack on the United States? Why wouldn’t the Axis simply hire a stateless anonymous terrorist cell, Sunni or Shiite, provide it with …

Ted Cruz Stands Up to ‘Hatred and Bigotry’

The following article is taken from The Washington Free Bacon which reports a recent talk by Ted Cruz was ended early by him due to audience booing.  This report is another example of the insidious force working in this world to rid it of Christianity.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) said in an interview with the Washington Free Beacon that the “hatred and bigotry” he encountered when he was booed off the stage at a Middle Eastern Christian conference for defending Israel on Wednesday night was like nothing he has previously seen in his political career.

“I’ve certainly encountered audiences that disagreed with a particular point of view. But this virulent display of hatred and bigotry was remarkable, and considerably different from anything I’ve previously encountered,” Cruz said, just a few hours after his pro-Israel speech to the In Defense of Christians conference was drowned out by shouts and jeers from the audience.

The senator was booed off stage at the conference, which is aimed at raising awareness for the persecution of Middle Eastern Christians, after saying that Christians “have no greater ally than Israel” and calling on the audience to support the Jewish state.

“The division and anti-Semitism expressed tonight by some of the crowd is not reflective of the teachings of Christ, and is in fact directly contrary to the tenets of Christianity,” Cruz said.

In video posted by the Daily Caller, audience members can be heard shouting at Cruz during his keynote address.

“I am saddened to see that some here, not everyone, but some here, are so consumed with hate,” said Cruz, before he was interrupted with shouts of “all of us!” from the audience.

“You speak for yourself!” one participant yelled during the senator’s defense of Israel.

“If you will not stand with Israel and the Jews, then I will not stand with you,” said Cruz, as audience members drowned him out with boos and cries of “enough!,” “no!” and “never!”

The Free Beacon reported on Wednesday that several Hezbollah and Syrian regime supporters were scheduled to speak at the conference. Numerous members of Congress were scheduled to attend, including Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D., Mich.), Rep. Darrell Issa (R., Calif.), and Rep. Brad Sherman (D., Calif.).

The speakers included Maronite Patriarch Cardinal Bechara Raï, who has defended Hezbollah’s right to attack Israel and has called for a meeting with the Iranian-backed terrorist group’s leader Hassan Nasrallah.

Another speaker, Syriac Orthodox Church Patriarch Moran Mor Ignatius Aphrem II, boasted on his official Facebook page last week about his Sept. 5 meeting with a “high level delegation from Hezbollah.”

The conference also featured Antioch Church patriarch Gregory III Laham, who has blamed terrorist attacks against Iraqi Christians on a “Zionist conspiracy against Islam” aimed at making Muslims look bad.

“It is actually a conspiracy planned by Zionism and some Christians with Zionist orientations, and it aims at undermining and giving a bad image of Islam,” Laham said in 2010, according to the Daily Star.

Despite the controversial speakers, Cruz decided to speak at the conference because he wanted to bring attention to the persecution of Middle Eastern Christians, his office told the Free Beacon on Wednesday afternoon.

He said Wednesday night that he was disappointed he was unable to give the speech he had planned.

“I’d intended to talk tonight about Pastor Saeed Abedini, wrongfully imprisoned in the nation of Iran for practicing his Christian faith. I’d intended to talk tonight about Mariam Ibrahim, wrongfully imprisoned and sentenced to torture and death for her Christian faith,” said Cruz. “I had intended to talk about the three Jewish teenagers who were kidnapped and murdered by Hamas simply because they were Jews.”

“Radical Islamic terrorists do not distinguish between Christians and Jews,” he added. “They hate us both, they murder us both.”

Funding for the conference was provided by top Clinton donor and Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire Gilbert Chagoury, organizers told the Free Beacon on Tuesday.

A spokesperson for the conference did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Boiling the Frog

Today we see and hear far too many things in the news that are not only shocking, but hard to believe.  If a thinking person hears these things, they should ask themselves, “Why would they do this?”

A recent example in the news this week:

Recently an eight year old girl had to have an operation to save her life.  Due to several medical problems she has had more than one operation and her (single) mother was of course stressed and worried about her child.

The day of the operation the child’s mother was waiting in the waiting room and learned that her daughter’s school had sent people to the hospital to ‘administer a test to her daughter’ upon completion of her surgery..?!  As the child was wheeled out of surgery, the instructors (?) asked to speak to the daughter.  The mother obviously refused such bizarre action and said that under no circumstances would she allow a test to be done until her child was home and recuperated.

So the question is, why would a bureaucracy do such a thing?  The obvious answer is, they were ordered to do so.  But one should ask, who gave such a crazy order and why?

Upon reflection, the answer should be obvious — that government agency is attempting to do two things:  invoke ‘control’ over the child and family, and to desensitize them.

The American public is being desensitized almost daily with such stories.  And how often to you hear of outrage on the news?  Given enough time, the public will be so desensitized that ‘they’ will be free to do almost anything they want without any push-back.  One must wonder how long this will continue before ‘someone’ wakes up..??

Or will it be too late..?

Nine Quotes to Live By

The following are nine of Ayn Rand’s (the author of ‘Atlas Shrugged’)  quotes which are prolific.  These are words that if we lived by them, our country would be a much better place.  They are well worth reading, if not giving serious thought too…

“Morality is the judgement to distinguish right and wrong, vision to see the truth, courage to act upon it, dedication to that which is good, integrity to stand by the good at any price.”

“A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.”

“An inventor is a man who asks ‘why’? Of the universe and lets nothing stand between the answer and his mind.”

“A society that robs an individual of the product of his effort, or enslaves him, or attempts to limit the freedom of his mind, or compels him to act against his own rational judgment-a society that sets up a conflict between its edicts and the requirements of man’s nature—is not, strictly speaking, a society, but a mob held together by institutionalized gang-rule.”

“Capitalism has been called a system of greed—yet it is the system that raised the standard of living of its poorest citizens to heights no collectivist system has ever begun to equal, and no tribal gang can conceive of.”

“The most depraved type of human being is the man without a purpose.”

“The purpose of morality is to teach you, not to suffer and die, but to enjoy yourself and live.”

“Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual).”

“A government is the most dangerous threat to man’s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.”

Atlas Shrugged – A movie that portrays our ‘possible’ tomorrow

If you have not seen the move ‘Atlas Shrugged’, you’ve missed not only a good movie, but a look into our future.  This Friday, September 12th, the latest in the series will be released.  I have little doubt it will be another shocker.

In my opinion, the author of the book and these movies depict a real insight into the actions occurring in today’s society.  I strongly recommend seeing this latest episode.  For a preview of the movie, please see their trailer.

Russian Strategic Bombers Near Canada

The following article demonstrates the ‘potential’ threat to the U.S. in existence today.  I recently heard first hand the news of how Russian planes have entered north western locations close to our air space as probing missions.  I believe they are (along with the Chinese) testing our resolve.  And of course with our current leadership, I doubt there was much ‘response’..?  Much less press telling the American public what is going on.

September 10, 2014 by Bill Gertz

Two Russian strategic bombers conducted practice cruise missile attacks on the United States during a training mission last week that defense officials say appeared timed to the NATO summit in Wales.

The Russian Tu-95 Bear bombers were tracked flying a route across the northern Atlantic near Iceland, Greenland, and Canada’s northeast.

Analysis of the flight indicated the aircraft were conducting practice runs to a pre-determined “launch box”—an optimum point for firing nuclear-armed cruise missiles at U.S. targets, said defense officials familiar with intelligence reports.

Disclosure of the nuclear bombing practice comes as a Russian general last week called for Moscow to change its doctrine to include preemptive nuclear strikes on the United States and NATO.

Gen. Yuri Yakubov, a senior Defense Ministry official, was quoted by the state-run Interfax news agency as saying that Russia’s 2010 military doctrine should be revised to identify the United States and the NATO alliance as enemies, and clearly outline the conditions for a preemptive nuclear strike against them.

Yakubov said among other needed doctrinal changes, “it is necessary to hash out the conditions under which Russia could carry out a preemptive strike with the Russian Strategic Rocket Forces”—Moscow’s nuclear forces.

The practice bombing runs are the latest in a series of incidents involving threatening Russian bomber flights near the United States. Analysts say the bomber flights are nuclear saber-rattling by Moscow as a result of heightened tensions over the crisis in Ukraine.

A spokesman for the U.S. Northern Command and North American Aerospace Defense Command declined to comment on the bomber flights in the North Atlantic.

No U.S. or Canadian fighter jets were scrambled to intercept the Bear-H bombers since the aircraft stayed outside the North American Air Defense Identification Zone.

Additional details of the incident that took place over the Labrador Sea, the stretch of the Atlantic between Greenland and Canada’s Labrador Peninsula, could not be learned.

However, officials said it took place during the NATO summit in Wales that was held Thursday and Friday.

The summit statement criticized “Russia’s aggressive actions against Ukraine [which] have fundamentally challenged our vision of a Europe whole, free, and at peace.”

In response to Russia’s actions, the alliance agreed to create a new Very High Readiness Joint Task Force in Eastern Europe that can deploy military forces in days.

“If required, they will also facilitate reinforcement of allies located at NATO’s periphery for deterrence and collective defense,” the NATO statement said.

U.S. Army troops will lead an international military exercise inside western Ukraine later this month. The exercises, known as “Rapid Trident 2014,” will begin Sept. 15 and include troops from several NATO and NATO-partner states, including Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Canada, Georgia, Germany, Britain, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Norway, Poland, Romania, Spain, and the United States.

Russian nuclear forces will conduct a large-scale exercise in mid-September, state news agencies reported.

The Tu-95 is a nuclear-capable bomber that is outfitted with six AS-15 nuclear-armed cruise missiles. The missiles have a range of over 1,800 miles.

Google Earth analysis reveals that a Tu-95 launch box located in the Labrador Sea and firing AS-15 missiles would be in range of Ottawa, New York, Washington, and Chicago, and could reach as far south as the Norfolk Naval base.

However, air-launched cruise missiles fired from that location and outside the air defense identification zone would be unable to reach Kings Bay, Georgia—the homeport for U.S. ballistic missile submarines and a key strategic nuclear target.

Mark Schneider, a former Pentagon strategic policymaker and currently senior analyst at the National Institute for Public Policy, said Russian leaders frequently issue public nuclear threats because they regard their nuclear arsenal as the main element of their great power status.

“Putin began what he called bomber ‘combat patrols’ in 2007 and they continue,” Schneider said. “They are designed to intimidate as well as practice nuclear bomber attacks.”

Schneider said that since the Ukraine crisis triggered by Moscow’s military annexation of Crimea, “there have been substantial numbers of all types of standard Russian nuclear threats.”

He said the threats have included nuclear exercises, bomber flights, and public statements, including Putin’s suggestion that NATO ‘not mess with us’ because Moscow remains a nuclear power.

Northern Command has confirmed that Russian strategic bomber flights increased sharply over the past six months.

Last month, at least 16 bomber incursions by the Russians took place within the northwestern U.S. and Canadian air defense zones over a period 10 days. It was the largest number of incursions since the end of the Cold War. U.S. fighter jets intercepted the Russian aircraft and followed them until they exited the defense zone.

In June, Russian bombers flew over the arctic prompting intercepts by Canadian fighters on two occasions. The Canadian government called the stepped up bomber flights a “strategic message” from Moscow amid heightened tensions.

And on June 20, the Russian Defense Ministry announced the test launch of six AS-15 missiles from a Bear bomber during military exercises.

That same month, on June 9, two Russian Bear bombers flew within 50 miles of the California coast in the closest strategic bomber flights near a U.S. coast since the Cold War with the Soviet Union.

Admiral Cecil Haney, commander of the U.S. Strategic Command, which is in charge of nuclear forces, said last month that he is concerned both by large-scale Russian nuclear exercises and by increased bomber flights near the United States.

“Clearly, we at the U.S. Strategic Command do monitor the strategic environment,” Haney said noting large-scale nuclear exercises during the Ukraine crisis.

“Any nation state has the right to train,” he added. “It’s just interesting how that information [on nuclear forces exercises] is readily available on YouTube. Clearly, the actions associated with Ukraine are problematic.”

On long-range strategic aircraft flights, Haney said: “I will say that the business of them coming close to the United States of America, we take very seriously.”

Freedom – Our Right to Choose

Americans often talk about their ‘rights’.  They point out that they have the right to get their ‘fair share’.  This is not a right, it is a wish.  Getting one’s fair share is an opportunity — the opportunity to work for their share.  Although their share received may not be what they wanted, it is what they have earned.  If what is earned is insufficient to the recipient, that person has the choice to alter their approach or improve their skills for earning their (desired) share.

So what then is freedom?  The following is a great description quoted from ‘The Naked Communist’. 

… there is no such thing as unrestricted freedom, or freedom in general.  Freedom is always restricted to some specific choice and freedom is always restricted to choosing one direction at a time.  It is for this reason that a free economy requires a continuous education of its people so that they will exercise their “freedom to choose” in such a way that it will sustain sound moral principles and build a dynamic economy with a strong social structure to preserve it. In making such choices, the people must sense what is best for both the individual and the community. They must be well informed. They must know enough about each problem so they can anticipate what the result will be when they have made their choice. There are many notable examples in both modern and ancient history to illustrate what happens when people are only casually concerned with their right to make a choice or exercise their freedom. Free peoples require alert, aggressive leadership and a socially and politically conscious citizenry. This is not easily maintained, but it is the price of freedom. Sometimes the streak of natural laziness in people makes them wish that a commission, a dictator or a king would make all the decisions and force the people to do what is good for them. But this is the road to ruin for a free economy. The people must retain the sovereign right to choose, for that is all freedom is.

Our society today is not only uninformed, but they are filled with self created rights — not natural rights, but desires.  Too many no longer wish to work for what they want, they merely want to wish it true.  Which is why we have 47% of our working ‘able’ on federal/government assistance. 

Imagine what would happen if that ‘faucet’ were turned off..?  Not a pretty picture is it..? 

ISIS Attacks in the U.S.

A local ‘authority’ on terrorism has made a prediction that we will not see any ‘significant’ attacks within the U.S. for at least two years.  Professor Jeffrey F. Addicott is a professor of law at St. Mary’s university in San Antonio, Texas.  It will be interesting to see how accurate his prognostications are and if it actually takes two years for the fanatics to do us harm on a large scale. 

The following link is a video of his interview on channel 5 in San Antonio last night.
