I wanna wish my dear Sister in Law Tammy Young Hawkins a Happy 61st birthday that's coming up on March 27th, 2025. My sister-in-law and Brother Tommie Lee Hawkins Junior have three wonderful children Quila, Tommie III, and Lovania Hawkins, and they all live and work in the city of Greer SC. My dear sister-in-law is a great cook, and the endearing wife of my Big brother Tommie Junior, and a wonderful mother to my dear nephew and nieces. And we all love to go on day trips to Hendersonville NC and the Blue Ridge mountains years on end.
America Is Calling – How Will We Respond?

- By W.H. Lamb

“O, America you’re calling, I can hear you calling me: You are calling me to be true to thee—true to thee I will be.
O, America you’re weeping, Let me heal your wounded heart. I will keep you in my keeping, ‘til there be a new start.
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand, And lead you to the sun; And I will stand by you, do all that I can do, And we will be as one.
O, America I hear you, From your prairies to the sea; From your mountains grand, and all through this land, You are beautiful to me.
And, O, America you’re calling. I can hear you calling me; You are calling me to be true to thee, true to thee I will be.
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand, And lead you to the sun; And I will stand by you, do all that I can do, And we will be as one.
O, America you’re calling…… I will ever answer thee.”
Just For Today

I was led to pen the thoughts below due to a writing submitted by a 22-year-old lady who just resigned her corporate position. As she wrote on a professional site to which we both belong, I was moved by her accomplishments but as she relayed, they were at some personal cost given the number of hours and numerous on-call expectations she was expected to work. One of her statements particularly caught my attention, "take a break when you deserve it, only do stuff you're passionate about and learn." Her insight and ownership of what she was becoming reminded me of some life lessons I learned as one proceeds down the path of living, accomplishing, promotions and recognitions amid life's setbacks. I was sincerely fortunate to have the below life lessons taught as I approached my high school years, and then interestingly enforced during four years at a high-ranking military academy. I pray you find some wisdom and help in my life lessons below:

The Heroic Saga of the CSS Alabama, CSS Florida, and CSS Shenandoah

Confederate Navy Captain James D. Bulloch, the Confederate government agent who coordinated and supervised the building and launching of the Confederate cruisers Alabama, Florida, and Shenandoah in Liverpool is not a household name among Civil War buffs, but his accomplishments in building a formidable Confederate fleet of commerce raiders in England must be ranked among the most remarkable achievements for the Southern cause.
Sergeant Alvin York: Man Of Courage & Man Of Faith

One of my favorite subjects to write about in this great journal of truth has always been the lives of extraordinary people, especially when they are Christians, and most particularly when they have turned from being a Devil’s Disciple to become one of God’s Children – from sinner to saint. Those are the people I love to write about, to share with my readers their beliefs, their values, their strengths and weaknesses, their deeds, their fears, and their valor that we of the present might emulate to some degree.
Science by Judicial Decree
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
What is and is not science is a key issue in the field of philosophy of science. When somebody insists that their activities qualify as science, but others disagree, the best way to settle the question is by open discussion. There are two ways in which this issue should never be settled. The first is by those who insist that the activities are not scientific, forcing their view through the established institutions of mainstream science to prevent discussion. The second is even worse by judicial decree, that is by lawsuit.
The Constitution and We the People
- Details
- By Lyle J. Rapacki, Ph.D. - Arizona Today
The Constitution can only defend the public to the extent the public defends and preserves the Constitution. This truth is playing out in front of our eyes right now. Barely a month into his presidency, Donald Trump clearly has made decisions to restore the gift given to us by our Forefathers.
The gift of this exceptional nation and our founding documents making us unique among all the countries in the world. But the gift has steadily been siphoned, chiseled away, ignored and replaced with socialist doctrine. Equally, we have had office holders who placed their own agendas before the purpose of serving those who duly elected them, to represent them and to guarantee the rights and freedoms given to us as a gift if we would keep them, as Benjamin Franklin said coming out of Independence Hall and the formation of our Republic.
