And every plant of the field before it was in the earth,
and every herb of the field before it grew.
Genesis 2:5
Is it a
weed or food? Beyond the ordinary garden vegetables and perennial fruits, many
traditional edible plants are unknown in our modern society. There’s so much we don’t know about homegrown,
natural edibles!
Here are
some images and resources to help you to know what to choose.
If you
are ever stranded in the wilderness of the U.S., unsure which direction is the nearest
grocery store or restaurant, fear not. The forest is your supermarket, and it
is time to go shopping! Below is a list of six edible plants (and fungi) found
in different parts of the U.S.
IMPORTANT
NOTE: Take every precaution before eating
edible wild plants. Before you eat anything in the wild, it’s wise to get a
qualified instructor to show you the plants. Be aware that you may be allergic
to a plant that someone else can eat without harm. Be sure that any plants that
you gather have not been sprayed with pesticides or herbicides.
Creation
Day 3: Plants
The story
of creation of the earth and of plants is in Genesis chapters 1 and 2.
neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:7
Even
urbanites can forage for wild edibles in common areas, and the suburbs will
yield a good harvest. Learn to spot poke sallet, dock, plantain, dandelion,
lambsquarters, wood sorrel (sourgrass), and thistle. All of these are edible
and/or medicinal. See the article for more details.

Certain pharmaceuticals
become dangerous after an expiration date. See DCC Vol. III, pg. 64, for a
list of medications not to use beyond expiration. I would recommend
herbal and alternative medicine approaches, as they are safer, and (in many
cases) stronger. Oil of Oregano (all oil, gel caps, and herb capsule forms),
Allimax (garlic compound preparation), fresh garlic, Colloidal Silver, Clove
Oil, etc. You may want to get reflux tablets, too (papaya enzyme type are
great), since many people get heartburn/reflux with strong garlic or oregano.
Oil of Oregano is good for any type of infection or bug, especially
respiratory. Maranatha!

About THE FEAR and PREPARATIONS
Jupiter will be well placed for
observation, in the constellation Ophiuchus. It will be visible for much of the
night, reaching its highest
point in the sky at
around midnight local time.
June Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon, Mead Moon, Honey Moon, Rose Moon -
Moon in late twilight and after dark for Antares and Jupiter, as shown here.
Full "Honey Moon" tonight (exact at 4:31 a.m. Monday morning EDT). By no coincidence the Moon shines near Jupiter, which was at opposition just six days ago. "Full" and "at opposition" both mean "in the direction opposite the Sun" as seen from Earth.
The strawberry moon got its name from Algonquin tribes that saw the first full moon of the summer as a signal that it was time to gather the fruits around them.
The strawberry moon was a cause for celebration in other countries as well. But since strawberries didn't originally grow in Europe, people there called it the full rose moon. It's also known in various places worldwide as the hot moon, honey moon and long night moon.

June 22 - Leo the Lion is a constellation of late winter and
spring. But he's not gone yet. As twilight ends look due west, rather low, for
Regulus, his brightest and now lowest star: the forefoot of the Lion stick
figure. The Sickle of Leo extends upper right from Regulus. The rest of the
Lion's constellation figure extends for almost three fist-widths to the upper
left, to his tail star Denebola, the highest. He's treading down to the western
horizon.

6-28 - See moon and stars of Taurus before sunrise
The moon is soon to swing by the Pleiades star cluster and star Aldebaran, which rank as the two most prominent signposts in the constellation Taurus the Bull. The moon swings to the south of the Pleiades cluster on June 29, 2019, and then to the north of Aldebaran on June 30, 2019. Finally, the moon will meet up with the planet Venus in the glow of morning dawn on or near July 1, 2019. Here’s the tricky part of this observation. You probably won’t see all of the aforementioned objects at the same time. By the time that Venus rises into your sky, chances are the Pleiades star cluster and Aldebaran will have faded from sight in the glare of morning twilight. Venus, like the moon, also shines in front of the constellation Taurus in late June and early July 2019. However, the moon will move out of the constellation Taurus and into the constellation Gemini on or near July 2. Then, Venus too will move out of of Taurus and into Gemini, on or near July 4.

A fire at a 150-year-old refinery complex in Philadelphia. The fire broke out at the Philadelphia Energy Solutions Refining Complex around 4 a.m.
A fire was burning out of control at an oil refinery in Pennsylvania early Friday morning, and video captured a massive explosion that rocked the building and was felt throughout the city of Philadelphia.
NBC Philadelphia said the blaze at the 335,000 barrels per day Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery was visible from miles away and triggered explosions that were felt as far away as South Jersey.
The crude section at the Girard Point portion of the refinery was shut down due to the fire, intelligence provider Genscape said. Biggest refinery on east coast.
The PES Philadelphia Refining Complex has been “part of the neighborhood” in South Philadelphia for over 150 years and is closely tied to the growth of the American oil industry in the 19th century.

June 26, 1945 – 74th Anniversary of UN Charter The Charter of the United Nations (also
known as the UN Charter) of 1945 is the foundational treaty of the United Nations, signed at the San Francisco
War Memorial and Performing Arts Center in San Francisco,
United States, on 26 June 1945, by 50 of the 51 original member countries
UN Plaza was dedicated in 1975 to commemorate the formation of the United Nations via
the signing of the Charter of the United Nations.
Reaffirming faith in human rights, promoting social justice and saving the world from the “scourge of war”: just some of the founding principles of the United Nations, which appear in the Organization’s bedrock Charter, signed exactly 74 years ago in San Francisco.
To mark the occasion, a special event took place in the General Assembly Hall at UN Headquarters in New York, on Tuesday, which also served as an opportunity to launch activities commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Organization, which will be celebrated next year.
In her opening address, MarÃa Fernanda Espinosa, President of the General Assembly, reminded delegates that the Charter, when it was signed in 1945, carried the “hopes of a world tired by war”. While it is easy to see the Charter as an “idealistic endeavour from another time”, she said, its founders were not dreamers, but hard-headed leaders who “weighed the downside of compromise against the benefits of cooperation and the heavy cost of war.”
We the Peoples of the United Nations", marking the Day of the signing of the #UNCharter, and reaffirming our commitment to #UN values head of the 75th anniversary next year, joined colleagues in symbolic signature ceremony at a special event by @UN_PGA.
