August Events 2019



Hebrews 8:1 - Christ's Eternal Priesthood

The point of what we are saying is this: 
We do have such a high priest,
 who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, 
and who ministers in the sanctuary and true tabernacle
 set up by the Lord, not by man.

THE HEAVENS DECLARED (poster PDF)

O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:55-57




Aug 11-13 - The most meteors are most likely to fall in the predawn hours on August 13, yet under the light of a bright waxing gibbous moon. The mornings of August 11 and 12 are surely worth trying, too, especially as there will be more moon-free viewing time on these mornings

Moon at Aldebaran -  Bull’s Eye of Taurus / Pleiades
The Hebrew word for bull or ox is “shur” which also means “to return” or “to come back.”
There are two distinct star groups in Taurus: the Hyades and the Pleiades. Hyades means “congregated” while Pleiades comes from the Hebrew for “gathering” and the Greek “Pleistos” or “Pleion” which means “The many,” “the excellent” or “the great.” The Japanese name for the Pleiades is Subaru, and the Persian name is Soraya. Ancient Greeks called them "the clusterers." The Bible sometimes refers to the Pleiades as the "seven stars" and sometimes to "Pleiades."
They are mentioned in Job 9:9, 38:31-32; Amos 5:8; Rev.1:16, 20.

https://twitter.com/SpaceX
As a result, AMOS-17’s nominal August 3rd launch date is now off the table as SpaceX prepares for a second Falcon 9 wet dress rehearsal (WDR) and booster ignition test. Assuming the issue(s) observed after the first static fire test on July 31st are fixed after test #2, scheduled no earlier than Friday, August 2nd, SpaceX will reconfirm Falcon 9’s new AMOS-17 launch date. According to payload manufacturer and launch liaison Boeing, AMOS-17 is now scheduled to lift off no earlier than Monday, August 5th.
https://www.teslarati.com/spacex-falcon-9-delay-second-static-fire/
SpaceX test-fired a Falcon 9 rocket at Cape Canaveral on Wednesday evening, clearing the way for liftoff with the Israeli-owned Amos 17 commercial communications satellite Saturday, pending favorable weather and the completion of final preflight data assessments.
The reused Falcon 9 first stage, seen here with a new second stage attached, assigned to launch the Amos 17 spacecraft will fly without landing legs.  
SpaceX’s team at Cape Canaveral aims to launch Amos 17 just nine days after the last launch from pad 40, which occurred July 25 with a Dragon supply ship heading for the International Space Station.
The nine-day turnaround at pad 40 would be the shortest span between liftoffs from the same launch pad in SpaceX’s history.

Trump proposes 'swift' executions for mass shooters, says internet radicalizes disturbed minds
In a nationwide address from the White House, Trump called to enact “swift” death penalty sentences for mass murderers, tightening of gun controls, clamping down on “gruesome” video games and dealing with mental illness. President Trump said he was ordering new laws to ensure perpetrators of mass killings are swiftly executed.
I have also been in close contact with Attorney General Barr and FBI Director Wray.  Federal authorities are on the ground, and I have directed them to provide any and all assistance required — whatever is needed.
The shooter in El Paso posted a manifesto online consumed by racist hate.  In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, and white supremacy.  These sinister ideologies must be defeated.  Hate has no place in America.  Hatred warps the mind, ravages the heart, and devours the soul.  We have asked the FBI to identify all further resources they need to investigate and disrupt hate crimes and domestic terrorism — whatever they need.
We must recognize that the Internet has provided a dangerous avenue to radicalize disturbed minds and perform demented acts.  We must shine light on the dark recesses of the Internet, and stop mass murders before they start.  The Internet, likewise, is used for human trafficking, illegal drug distribution, and so many other heinous crimes.  The perils of the Internet and social media cannot be ignored, and they will not be ignored.

Aug 7 - WASHINGTON - FEMA, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission, will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) on Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2019.
The nationwide test will be sent to radio and television stations beginning at 2:20 p.m. EDT (11:20 p.m. PDT).
The test is being conducted through FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS). This year, the test message will originate from designated radio stations, known as Primary Entry Point stations, which participate in a component of IPAWS called the National Public Warning System.
All other radio and television stations, cable, wireline service providers, and direct broadcast satellite service providers should subsequently receive and broadcast the test message.
This year’s test will evaluate the readiness of the national alerting capability in the absence of internet connectivity. The test will be approximately one minute long, have a limited impact on the public with only minor interruption of radio and television programs, and will be similar to regular monthly EAS tests. Both the audio message and text crawl should be accessible to people with disabilities.
The test will not include a message on cell phones via Wireless Emergency Alerts.
