Father please bless and help all of them in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. Statement From President Donald J. Trump: My fellow Americans, we are joined together today in sadness, shock, and grief. Last night, a gunman opened fire on a large crowd at a country music concert in Las Vegas, Nevada. He brutally murdered more than 50 people, and wounded hundreds more. It was an act of pure evil. The FBI and the Department of Homeland Security are working closely with local authorities to assist with the investigation, and they will provide updates as to the investigation and how it develops. I want to thank the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and all of the first responders for their courageous efforts, and for helping to save the lives of so many. The speed with which they acted is miraculous, and prevented further loss of life. To have found the shooter so quickly after the first shots were fired is something for which we will always be thankful and grateful. It shows what true professionalism is all about. Hundreds of our fellow citizens are now mourning the sudden loss of a loved one -- a parent, a child, a brother or sister. We cannot fathom their pain. We cannot imagine their loss. To the families of the victims: We are praying for you and we are here for you, and we ask God to help see you through this very dark period. Scripture teaches us, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” We seek comfort in those words, for we know that God lives in the hearts of those who grieve. To the wounded who are now recovering in hospitals, we are praying for your full and speedy recovery, and pledge to you our support from this day forward. In memory of the fallen, I have directed that our great flag be flown at half-staff. I will be visiting Las Vegas on Wednesday to meet with law enforcement, first responders, and the families of the victims. In moments of tragedy and horror, America comes together as one -- and it always has. We call upon the bonds that unite us -- our faith, our family, and our shared values. We call upon the bonds of citizenship, the ties of community, and the comfort of our common humanity. Our unity cannot be shattered by evil. Our bonds cannot be broken by violence. And though we feel such great anger at the senseless murder of our fellow citizens, it is our love that defines us today -- and always will, forever. In times such as these, I know we are searching for some kind of meaning in the chaos, some kind of light in the darkness. The answers do not come easy. But we can take solace knowing that even the darkest space can be brightened by a single light, and even the most terrible despair can be illuminated by a single ray of hope. Melania and I are praying for every American who has been hurt, wounded, or lost the ones they love so dearly in this terrible, terrible attack. We pray for the entire nation to find unity and peace. And we pray for the day when evil is banished, and the innocent are safe from hatred and from fear. May God bless the souls of the lives that are lost. May God give us the grace of healing. And may God provide the grieving families with strength to carry on. Thank you. God bless America. Thank you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSh7VrwG9ww -<>- >-->HOT Off The 'Shangy' Press :) This super flaming hot new page is from our friend LouiseAu.

Psychologist: "What is your dream about?" Blonde: "I am being chased by a vampire..." Psychologist: "So, where are you in this dream?" Blonde: "I am running in a hallway." Psychologist: "Then what happens?" Blonde: "Well, that's the weird thing. In every single dream, the same thing happens. I always come to a door, but I can't open it. I keep pushing the door and pushing the door, but it won't budge!" Psychologist: "Does the door have any letters on it?" Blonde: "Yes." Psychologist: "And what do these letter spell?"

You hear your favorite song in an elevator. 4. You go from 130 days of vacation time to seven. 5. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up." 6. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore. 7. Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up. 8. Dinner and a movie are now the whole date instead of just the beginning of one. 9. You go to the drugstore for Ibuprofen and antacids, not condoms and pregnancy test kits. 10.

While it is about 10 miles from Heathrow International Airport it is directly in the flight path. While a group of tourists was standing outside the castle admiring the elegant structure, a plane flew overhead at a relatively low altitude, making a tremendous noise. One particularly annoyed tourist whined, "Why did they build the castle so close to the airport?" -<>- >Brain Stimulation Feeling listless, I bought some expensive "brain-stimulating" pills at the health food store. But it wasn't until I got home that I read the label. "This is just rosemary extract," I complained to my husband. "I can't believe I spent all that money for something that I have growing in the yard!" "See?" he said. "You're smarter already." -<>- >Devotion Dave went on a business trip for a few days. When he returned, his wife reported that the dog really missed him. "She spent every night at the front door, waiting for you to come home," she said. "What an example of devotion," Dave replied. "I wonder if you'd be that concerned about me?" "Honey," she answered, "if you were gone overnight, and I didn't know where you were, you can be sure I'd be waiting for you at the front door." -<>- >A Special Teacher Our son's Grade 1 teacher was a lovely woman from Ghana. Mrs. Arhin was the kind of magical teacher everyone would call an angel. On the way to school one day, I said my son that he was very lucky to have such a wonderful teacher, rich with knowledge of another country. He asked me where Mrs. Arhin was from, and I answered that she was from Ghana, in Africa. He asked how far away that was, and I replied that it would be many hours by plane. "Mrs. Arhin must really love us," he said, "to travel so long every day just to teach us." ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend LouiseA :) (David Berner) /"\ /"\|\./|/"\ |\./| |\./| | | | | | |>~<| |/"\ |>~<| |>~<|\./| | | | | | /~T\| | =[@]= | |_/ | | | | | | | ~ ~ ~ | | |~< | ~ | | ' | \ | \ / \ / \. / | | | | >SMILES She said, "Most of us have (at least) one bad habit we are constantly trying to break. For me, it's biting my nails. One day I told my husband about my latest "brilliant" solution: press-on fingernails. "Great Idea, Honey," he smiled. "That way, you can eat them straight out of the box!" ---------- After a long day on the golf course, I stopped in at Hooter’s, to see some friends, have some hot wings and beer. After being there for a while, one of my friends asked me which waitress I would like to be stuck in an elevator with. I answered him, "The one who knows how to FIX elevators!" ---------- After a long dry sermon, the minister announced that he wished to meet with the church board following the close of the service. The first man to arrive and greet the minister was a total stranger. "You misunderstood my announcement. This is a meeting of the board members," explained the minister. "I know," replied the man, "and if there is anyone here more bored than I am, then I'd like to meet him!" ---------- A blonde gets on a plane and has a coach ticket, but she sits in first class. The stewardess tells the blonde that she has to have a first class ticket. The blonde replies, "I am blonde, I am beautiful, and I am going to Chicago for the weekend. Leave me alone." The stewardess tells her boss. Her boss tells the blonde, "Miss, if you would like to sit in first class, you can pay the extra money, or you will have to return to coach." The blonde replies, "I am blonde, I am beautiful, and I am going to Chicago for the weekend. Leave me alone." The stewardess and her boss decide to tell the pilot. The pilot approaches the blonde and explains that she cannot sit in first class without buying a ticket, and she replies, "I am blonde, I am beautiful, and I am going to Chicago for the weekend. Leave me alone." So the pilot whispers in her ear, and the blonde returns to her seat in coach. The stewardess asks, "What did you say to her?" The pilot smiles and replies, "I told her coach is going to Chicago, but first class is going to Philadelphia." ---------- A woman develops a brain tumor, and the doctor says it could kill her soon. Luckily, he has perfected a way of doing a brain transplant. There was a terrible accident, and two women died -- a blonde and a redhead -- so there are two brains available. "That is great!" exclaims the woman, "Which one should I get?" "Well, cost is one factor," the doctor continues. "The redhead's brain costs $30,000, while the blonde's brain costs $100,000." "I don't understand," the woman answers. "Why such a difference in price?" The doctor replies, "The redhead's brain is used." ---------- A blonde was driving back from the mall when there was a terrible hail storm. Huge hail stones the size of golf balls pelted her car, leaving it full of dents. She drove to the body shop and asked what she should do. The body man explained what needed to be done and that it would cost at least $4000 to repair. She replied that was too much, and wasn't there some other way to fix it. The body man decided to have a little fun and suggested, "Well you could blow into the tail pipe real hard, and they might pop back out." She decided to give it a try before spending that much money. She drove home and was in the garage, with her lips wrapped around the exhaust pipe, when her blonde neighbor came over to visit. "What are you doing!" she shrieked, thinking the worst and thankful that she may have just prevented her friend from committing suicide. "I am blowing into the tailpipe real hard to pop all these dents out of my car," explained the first blonde. "Well, silly, it is not going to work!" replied her neighbor. "Why not"? asked the first blonde. "Because you have to roll up the windows first." ------------ _ __/") __ ________(___/__(_ \ \ \ (") _ ( \ ) ) ("/ _ / ) ( ( \") \.|\/|./ _________________\ /________________________________________VK_ Little Johnny sat playing in the garden. When his mother came out to collect him, she saw that he was slowly eating a worm. She turned pale. "No, Johnny! Stop! That's horrible! You can't eat worms!" Trying to convince him further she noted, "Now the mother worm is looking all over for her nice baby worm." "No, she isn't," said Johnny. "How do you know she's not?" said the mother. "Because I ate her first!" answered Little Johnny. ---------- My elderly neighbor mentioned she had been trying to locate a cricket that had found its way into her house. After several attempts to find it, she gave up, and her husband named the cricket 'Jiminy.' The pair began talking to him whenever he chirped. We were having coffee in her kitchen one day when the chirping began. Her husband introduced me to their new friend. That's when I had to tell them that their smoke detector needed new batteries. --- ...LOL! Does Sound like that!

Whether these changes are good or bad depends in part on how we adapt to them. But, ready or not, here they come. 1. The Post Office Get ready to imagine a world without the post office. They are so deeply in financial trouble that there is probably no way to sustain it long term. Email, Fed Ex, and UPS have just about wiped out the minimum revenue needed to keep the post office alive. Most of your mail every day is junk mail and bills. 2. The Check Britain is already laying the groundwork to do away with checks by 2018. It costs the financial system billions of dollars a year to process checks. Plastic cards and online transactions will lead to the eventual demise of the check. This plays right into the death of the post office. If you never paid your bills by mail and never received them by mail, the post office would absolutely go out of business. 3. The Newspaper The younger generation simply doesn't read the newspaper. They certainly don't subscribe to a daily delivered print edition. That may go the way of the milkman and the laundry man. As for reading the paper online, get ready to pay for it. The rise in mobile Internet devices and e-readers has caused all the newspaper publishers to form an alliance. They have met with Apple, Amazon, and the major cell phone companies to develop a model for paid subscription services. 4. The Book You say you will never give up the physical book that you hold in your hand and turn the literal pages. I said the same thing about downloading music from iTunes. I wanted my hard copy CD. But I quickly changed my mind when I discovered that I could get albums for half the price without ever leaving home to get the latest music. The same thing will happen with books. You can browse a bookstore online and even read a preview chapter before you buy. And the price is less than half that of a real book. And think of the convenience! Once you start flicking your fingers on the screen instead of the book, you find that you are lost in the story, can't wait to see what happens next, and you forget that you're holding a gadget instead of a book. 5. The Land Line Telephone Unless you have a large family and make a lot of local calls, you don't need it anymore. Most people keep it simply because they've always had it. But you are paying double charges for that extra service. All the cell phone companies will let you call customers using the same cell provider for no charge against your minutes. 6. Music This is one of the saddest parts of the change story. The music industry is dying a slow death. Not just because of illegal downloading. It's the lack of innovative new music being given a chance to get to the people who would like to hear it. Greed and corruption is the problem. The record labels and the radio conglomerates are simply self-destructing. Over 40% of the music purchased today is "catalogue items," meaning traditional music that the public is familiar with. Older established artists. This is also true on the live concert circuit. To explore this fascinating and disturbing topic further, check out the book, "Appetite for Self-Destruction" by Steve Knopper, and the video documentary, "Before the Music Dies." 7. Television Revenues to the networks are down dramatically. Not just because of the economy. People are watching TV and movies streamed from their computers. And they're playing games and doing lots of other things that take up the time that used to be spent watching TV. Prime time shows have degenerated down to lower than the lowest common denominator. Cable rates are skyrocketing and commercials run about every 4 minutes and 30 seconds. I say good riddance to most of it. It's time for the cable companies to be put out of our misery. Let the people choose what they want to watch online and through Netflix. (Are theaters next?) 8. The "Things" That You Own Many of the very possessions that we used to own are still in our lives, but we may not actually own them in the future. They may simply reside in "the cloud." Today your computer has a hard drive and you store your pictures, music, movies, and documents. Your software is on a CD or DVD, and you can always re-install it if need be. But all of that is changing. Apple, Microsoft, and Google are all finishing up their latest "cloud services." That means that when you turn on a computer, the Internet will be built into the operating system. So, Windows, Google, and the Mac OS will be tied straight into the Internet. If you click an icon, it will open something in the Internet cloud. If you save something, it will be saved to the cloud. And you may pay a monthly subscription fee to the cloud provider. In this virtual world, you can access your music or your books, or your whatever from any laptop or handheld device. That's the good news. But, will you actually own any of this "stuff" or will it all be able to disappear at any moment in a big "Poof?" Will most of the things in our lives be disposable and whimsical? It makes you want to run to the closet and pull out that photo album, grab a book from the shelf, or open up a CD case and pull out the insert. 9. Joined Handwriting (Cursive Writing) Already gone in some schools who no longer teach "joined handwriting" because nearly everything is done now on computers or keyboards of some type (pun not intended). 10. Privacy If there ever was a concept that we can look back on nostalgically, it would be privacy. That's gone. It's been gone for a long time anyway... There are cameras on the street, in most of the buildings, on most policemen (and maybe soon everyday civilians will be wearing them) and even built into your computer and cell phone. But you can be sure that 24/7, "They" know who you are and where you are, right down to the GPS coordinates, and the Google Street View. If you buy something, your habit is put into a zillion profiles, and your ads will change to reflect those habits... "They" will try to get you to buy something else. Again and again and again! All we will have left is that which can't be changed... our "Memories". (And those are slipping away from some of us.) --- ...hmmm, Sign of the times? Time will tell!

According to the Dearborn police, the toddler found the gun around 10:30 a.m. and shot the two 3-year-old children at the care facility located in a private residence. They were taken to the Children's Hospital, where they are being treated for severe injuries. There were other children in the house at the time of the shooting. All the children were removed from the home and taken to the police station. The parents later picked them up from the police station. The day care was run by Tim and Samantha Eubanks at their home in the 3600 block of Harding Street. So far, no charges have been filed. -<>- I'm not sure what the fascination is with combining weddings with animals. I have seen doves released after a ceremony. I have seen dogs used as ring bearers. I have even been to a lakeside reception at a country club that was populated with swans. But based upon this bizarre wedding story from Canada, I think horses is where you should really draw the line. A groom suffered injuries at his wedding ceremony after a drugged out horse threw him off its back. A video shows a man feeding the horse marijuana an hour before it acted strangely at the wedding ceremony. The groom suffered scratches after being thrown onto the grass by the horse named Misty. Horse handler Zsa Zsa Stiasny, said that the behavior was uncommon for Misty, as it has been to many weddings and it never caused a disturbance. Stiasny believes that the incident could have been caused by the marijuana in its system. Of course. Nobody likes to be sat on when they are high. What they should have done is fed the horse a bucket of beer. Because nothing is more entertaining than a vomiting horse at your wedding reception. *---------- Capitalism is Safe Again ----------* A shipment of counterfeit Barbie dolls being shipped in a rail container from Canada was intercepted at a Minnesota border crossing, customs officials said. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said officers with the Office of Field Operations inspected a rail container at the International Falls Port of Entry and discovered it contained 3,004 toys that initially appeared to be Barbie dolls manufactured by Mattel. A closer examination determined the dolls were piratical copies that violated Mattel's intellectual property. The counterfeit toys had a total suggested retail price of $85,824. "CBP continues to play a key role in Intellectual Property Rights enforcement," said Anthony Jackson, International Falls Port director. "CBP continues to stay focused on combating the illegitimate trade in counterfeit products." *-- At Least She Can Afford the Medical Bills --* A South Carolina student said she was so shocked to win $125,000 from a scratch-off lottery ticket that her pace- maker alarm to sound.

(UPI) - Police are working to identify a Florida man who apparently knocked himself out for a few seconds by head-butting a bus out of anger over a $2 fare. The Winter Haven Police Department, which posted video of the incident to its Facebook page, said the man got off the bus about 11:35 a.m. Saturday when it arrived at its stop. Police said the man told the driver he wanted to go to another location, and he became "extremely agitated" when the driver told him it would be an additional $2 fare to travel to the other location. The driver locked the bus and went inside the enclosed part of the bus terminal, leaving the passenger sitting alone on a bench. The man walked away, but returned to the still-locked bus four minutes later. The video shows the man get a running start before head-butting the door of the bus, shattering a glass window. The man falls to the ground and appears to be knocked out for a few seconds before collecting himself and running away.

He told the Cardinal that Nancy Pelosi would be attending the next day's Mass, and he asked if the Cardinal would kindly point out Pelosi to the congregation and say a few words that would include calling Pelosi a saint. The Cardinal replied, "No. I don't really like the woman, and there are issues of conflict with the Catholic Church over certain of Pelosi's views." Pelosi's aide then said, "Look, I'll write a check here and now for a donation of $100,000 to your church if you'll just tell the congregation you see Pelosi as a saint. The Cardinal thought about it and said, "Well, the church can use the money, so I'll work your request into tomorrow's sermon." As Pelosi's aide promised, Nancy Pelosi appeared for the Sunday worship and seated herself prominently at the forward left side of the center aisle. As promised, at the start of his sermon, the Cardinal pointed out that Ms.Pelosi was present. The Cardinal went on to explain to the congregation, "While Ms. Pelosi's presence is probably an honor to some, the woman is not numbered among my personal favorite personages. Some of her most egregious views are contrary to tenets of the Church, and she tends to flip - flop on many other issues. Nancy Pelosi is a petty and self -absorbed hypocrite. Nancy Pelosi is also a serial liar, a cheat, and a thief. I must say, Nancy Pelosi is the worst example of a Catholic I have ever personally witnessed. She married for money and is using her wealth to lie to the American people. She also has a reputation for shirking her Representative obligations both in Washington, and in California. The woman is simply not to be trusted." The Cardinal concluded, "But, when compared with President Obama and the Clintons, Ms. Pelosi is a Saint." --- ...LOL!

Since my friends were planning to be married in the Catholic Church, Chris made sure to listen carefully throughout their prenuptial sessions. At one meeting the priest turned to Chris and told him, "Since you are not Catholic, we shall have the ceremony without Eucharist."
