| 1…………> From Monk To Airman: Tibet |
|
MOODY AIR FORCE BASE, Ga.(AFNS) After spending 18 years in the solitary world of a Buddhist monk, Airman 1st Class Kornkawee Rue Art, 23rd Medical Support Squadron pharmacy technician, traded his orange robes for a blue uniform, in his continual pursuit of a life bigger than himself; one of meaning and purpose. Born and raised on a farm in the countryside of Thailand, all along dreaming of joining the Air Force, along with successfully following over 200 rules as a monk, Rue Art developed a foundation that would carry his dedication to the honor, respect, and duty he would bring to the Air Force.
“This was something I felt I could do if I prepared myself,” he said. “I wanted to challenge myself and always keep growing.” “Even when I was young I wanted to join the military,” Rue Art said. “Being a monk, though, it closed my dream. I just wanted a chance, because talking with my friend it reminded me of how I used to dream about joining the military.”
Since joining the Air Force, Rue Art expressed that having to see people who aren’t always positive has put a test to his faith; but that it’s actually given him a stronger conviction in his beliefs.
“You learn how to deal with conflict (as a monk), but you never experience it,” Rue Art said. “Being at the pharmacy, I saw the realness of it all. So, when something would make me feel mad or upset, I would wonder how I’m going refresh myself every day and be ready to go to work tomorrow. But with my Buddhist beliefs, I was actually able to put it into practice and see how it really does work.”

| 2…………>Down With Mr.Xi: Anti-China Alliance |
|
Rich in resources and traversed by a quarter of n, the South China Sea is the stage for several territorial disputes that threaten to escalate tensions in the region, in the heart of these disputes are a series of barren islands- the Spratly Islands, off the coast of the Philippines, and the Paracel Islands, off the coasts of Vietnam and China, both chains being practically uninhabitable.
Still, all have been pirated out by an “Elephant in the China store” named Mr.Xi, who has build a constellation of military bases on reclaimed atolls and reefs, in complete disregard to the “Law of the Sea”, on islands claimed by no fewer than seven countries, eager to gain control of the vast oil and gas fields below them, as well as some of the region’s best fishing grounds.
Hence Mr.Xi has created a dialect contradiction, forcing neighboring countries to gang up on him, as nuclear-armed India and Indonesia have joined Australia in pushing back by signing an agreement for closer military ties, and while it was not mentioned specifically in the official communique, concerns over China’s military expansion in the South China Sea are clearly at the heart of the deal.
Australia has welcomed the agreement, suggesting it will work closely with India and Indonesia to ensure international law is maintained in the region.
“I hope the partnership will contribute to stability, peace, and prosperity,” he said.

| 3…………>Methane Dunes: Pluto |
|
After analyzing of the startling images sent back by Nasa’s New Horizons mission, which flew close to Pluto in July 2015, planetary scientists say they have found evidence of dunes of frozen methane on Pluto.
Following a decade-long trek through the Solar System, the “New Horizons” sped by at a speed of 36,373 mph, gathering data as it passed, helping the researchers explain how they studied pictures of a plain known as Sputnik Planitia, parts of which are covered with what looks like fields of dunes.
They are lying close to a range of mountains of water ice 5km high. The scientists conclude that the dunes are 0.4-1km apart and that they are made up of particles of methane ice between 200-300 micrometers in diameter – roughly the size of grains of sand.

| 4…………> The Sleeping Lion: Catherine The Great
|
| Once owned by Catherine the Great of St. Petersburg, Russia. world’s largest freshwater pearl named “The Sleeping Lion” has been sold at public auction for the first time in more than 200 years.
An auction house in the Netherlands sold the 7-centimeter (about 2.7 inches) pearl for €320,000 ($374,000) on Thursday to a Japanese trader. It had been valued at between €340,000 to €540,000 by auction house Venduehuis.
It weighs about 120 grams (some 4.2 ounces) or in an imperial unit of measurement based on grains of barley and wheat — 2,373 grains or 578 carats.
The largest known freshwater pearl in the world, and one of the world’s three largest pearls of any kind, the Sleeping Lion is so named because of its irregular shape, and it was probably formed in the early 1700s in China, perhaps the Pearl River. In 1765 it was shipped by a Dutch merchant to Batavia (present day Jakarta) before being auctioned in Amsterdam thirteen years later and acquired by Catherine the Great, Empress of Russia.

| We warned long ago that an organized attempt to remove President Trump from office is underway, and if this activity is not curtailed soon, the market will open on gap below 20,000 with next stop 17300 and 11800 support levels.
Stocks were up 219 to 24635, DJ futures 230, attempt to stage a covering short rally. Gold down to 1297.9 and USD/CHF at 1.01 despite President Trump setting tariffs on Chinese products. Translation? As the dollar goes down, we have to wait and see if the new Fed Chair Jerome Powell will continue pressuring gold and the Eurasian block with it down below $1000/oz in an economic WW3. Watch cover short at 24,450.

| We have to wait and see if new Fed chair Powell will attempt to destroy Eurasian block by sending gold prices below 1000, despite the fact both Russia and China have been buying their whole gold production in local gold backed currency instead of money printing machines. In other words, US has lost controls of the precious metals complex, and with Trump’s infrastructure and tax cut campaign the National debt will soon be at, or over 30 trillion dollars, since D.C. swamp alligators have no intention dropping their pet projects. Read “Ziban Must Die” for more details on the coming collision of Trump’s administration with “Deep State” operators funded by the billionaires’ supporters of the New World.
