It has been shown to achieve noise reductions of up to 9 dB and can stabilize velocity standard deviations. The product is not compatible with all firearms, particularly 9mm pistols, and requires specific barrel measurements for proper use. Its introduction aims to enhance suppressor performance within the gun community.

Just heard the convo about Aaron's weird ability to pull interest from the fairer sex. You couldn't come up with a good word for it - I'm here to help. The perfect word is conFAUXdence. You're welcome. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Devin K - Where is the damn squares button!? Love this show and all the antics that come along with it. Lever action debate that would be fun to listen too. What's your favorite lever action caliber for whitetail hunting? What would be the one you would take if you needed to defend that SSB. #171, #fuckthethumb. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from System AI - A review and comparison to bring us all back to Dungeon Crawler Carl. Let's pair each cast member to a Character from DCC. First, Shawn, obviously he's Carl. He's the main character. He's powerful. He's the reason we are all here. There may or may not be a Cat that led him here. He likely has someone obsessed with his feet and definitely only has heart boxers on behind his desk. Second, Aaron, he's Prepotene. Smart and powerful. Sometimes on the team, sometimes in the way, sometimes nowhere to be seen. Probably rides a Goat. Screams nonsense from time to time. Would be dead without the rest of the team. Third, Jeremy. Jeremy is Quasar. Swears constantly Hates the leader/rulers of the galaxy and game. Is there everytime we need him. Will likely be the reason the rest end up in a prison. Fourth, Savage. He's JuiceBox. Extremely smart. AI generated. Self aware. Playing the same game but may have a different motive. Likely to lead to the downfall of the show. Last, Nick. Nick is Samantha. Much more powerful then he's willing to let on. Always growing in power. A very important member to keep the show running. Would be dangerous if all his organs worked correctly. And Shawn has definitely been inside him. These comparisons can not be altered. Debate will result in acceleration. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Professor Chamberlain Goes to War and Takes Command of the 20th Maine — Ronald White — After marrying Fanny in 1855, Chamberlain joined the Bowdoin faculty, where he promoted critical thinking among students and witnessed key historical moments, including Harriet Beecher Stowe reading Uncle Tom's Cabin. In 1862, called away from travel plans, he enlisted in the Union Army, declining a high rank to "earn and learn" his way up. He assumed command of the 20th Maine.
There will be three of us presenting the news and views to you this week. We have Jenny Holland, our friend and colleague, in Ireland to discuss everything from Transgender Madness to Mamdani. Learn the real reason so many Irish support ‘Palestine' and how we know all the best New York intellectual salons!As we are in Ireland we discuss how the radical left in Europe and the UK are still as crazy as they've ever been. We were at the latest Transgender madness court case in Belfast and it's a complete doozy. In the crazy world of the left, questioning gender madness is enough to end your career but your terrorist boss is a bonus for the organisation. And they argued this in court!!Watch this week to hear it all. And the BBC were caught doctoring Trump's speech ahead of the 2024 election, but it's the MAGA crowd that spreads disinformation, right? Watch this week's episode to laugh at the world's most overrated media company that got caught with their TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) showing. But will they still get away with it?And Jenny, who has spent decades in New York, helps us unravel why the city of high finance has elected a self declared socialist. And should we feel sorry for his supporters?So why did everyone miss something so obvious? Also, our OCTOBER 7 play was performed in Bowdoin, Maine, but we don't know where it's going next. There is still a big problem with anti-semitism and ignorance about Israel, and it was never more apparent after Israel's darkest day in 2023. We want to continue touring our play but we need your help to make that happen. So please go to UnreportedStorySociety.com or October7thePlay.com and give what you can, and write to us if you want to bring a performance to a location near you. *****************************************************To read Jenny's Substack click here: https://jennyeholland.substack.comTo watch and subscribe to Jenny Holland's YouTube page click here:https://m.youtube.com/@SavingCultureFromItself To subscribe to our substack click here:https://phelimmcaleer.substack.com/To Donate: https://secure.anedot.com/unreported-story-society/cf0cdeea5333b147798ffProjects You Need to Check Out: https://unreportedstorysociety.com/our-projects/Social Tags: X:@SemperFemina21Insta: @jennyehollandFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jenny.hollandAnn & Phelim SocialsPhelim's X: (https://x.com/PhelimMcAleer)Ann's X: (https://x.com/annmcelhinney)USS SocialsInsta: (https://www.instagram.com/unreportedstorysociety/)Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/TheAPScoop/)X: (https://x.com/AP_Unreported)
Elon Musk reposted our Grooming Gangs Coverup clip which has gained over 2.6 million views since last week. So many people have learned the truth about the biggest crime in UK history that led to the biggest coverup.It is the film you have to watch. It tells the truth about the Muslim ‘'Grooming Gangs” that are basically rape gangs who targetted white British girls for abuse. The film is a verbatim re-enactment of the judge's sentencing remarks in one of the few criminal trials that arose from the abuse. It is shocking to hear what happened to these girls and how the authorities refused to investigate because they were afraid of being called racist. It was identity politics at its worst and thousands of girls paid the price.In today's podcast Phelim talks with the brilliant British actor, Dominic Frisby, who played the judge in the film and who posted the clip which Elon Musk saw and reposted. Watch the show where they unpack just how long the grooming gangs have plagued the UK (and Europe) and why it was covered up for so long. You can hear the clip during the podcast but be warned it is very, very graphic.You can see the whole film through the link below.Viewer discretion is definitely advised. Bill Gates has suddenly pivoted on global warming after years of climate alarmism and taking trillions of dollars out of our pockets to save the planet. The sky is no longer falling, because he said so, infuriating the rest of us who've been saying this for years. Listen to the show where Phelim asks the important question; why has Gates come to his senses now? Is it self-interest or enlightenment?Our friend the businesswoman, philanthropist, and great American Karen Wright has died. We highlight her life and legacy in the podcast. Listen to the show to hear the story of a woman who raised a family, ran a multi-national business and gave back more than she received. And she truly loved her country. Also in the podcast you will also get to hear Karen speak, in a speech that everyone needs to hear.

Amazing news. Elon Musk has retweeted a clip(linked below) from our Grooming Gangs Cover-Up film. This means that over 2.5 million people have learned the truth about the biggest crime in UK history that led to the biggest coverup.It is the film you have to watch. It tells the truth about the Muslim “Grooming Gangs” that are basically rape gangs who targeted white British girls for abuse. The film is a verbatim re-enactment (linked below) of the judges sentencing remarks. It is shocking to hear what happened to these girls and how the authorities refused to investigate because they were afraid of being called racist. It was identity politics at its worst and thousands of girls paid the price.We reveal how the cover-up continues but hopefully as the clip from our film gains more and more viewers the truth will emerge. You can see the clip at the end of the podcast but be warned it is very, very graphic.Viewer discretion is definitely advised. Also on this week's podcast we speak to someone who has discovered a secret about the Shroud of Turin that he claims is proof of the resurrection. And bizarrely it is his profession as an oral surgeon that allowed our guest to see something that other researchers may have missed for centuries. Watch the show for this latest discovery about one of the most controversial Christian relics.And Ireland's reputation as the most anti-semitic country in Europe has been cemented after electing a far-left Hamas supporting President. She won by an overwhelming majority. But that's not the real story of the election. The establishment actually stopped Conservatives or Independents from running a candidate. Watch this week's show where we talk about the massive protest vote that followed. It's historic. The American left sees nazism everywhere on the right, no matter how ridiculous. They will try to smear and destroy anyone they disagree with. But we report on how they took a week off to excuse one of their favored political candidates, who actually had a nazi tattoo. It's nice to be a leftist.And we're keeping the Vampires away this Halloween with this wonderful and simple recipe from the archives for “Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic”…. a French classic!

Hollywood has killed itself. Now they want to kill you.We all know Hollywood pushes left-wing madness on their audiences—even as audiences are no longer going to the movies. But now they're doubling down to have George Clooney promote the killing of old people who become surplus to requirements. And actress Annette Bening is helping.We reveal the latest Hollywood push for assisted suicide.As a counterpoint, we feature some words of wisdom from our good friend, Dennis Prager, who, after becoming a quadriplegic, still values his life and is showing people that becoming disabled does not render life worthless. You have to listen to his comments. Watch the show for the update.And the left loves telling you the science is settled and how to live your life, regardless of the damage caused by their policies. Then a few years later they go oops—we made a mistake. You now must do the opposite. The damage is immense. We reveal the latest "expert" scandal.And we ask how many children have died because we “trusted the science” over common sense? Oh and don't forget to take your kids in for their millionth COVID booster.And don't believe the lie that Trump is engaging in vindictive lawfare. We reveal how John Bolton, Trump's former National Security Advisor, was planning his leaking crime spree before he even joined the administration.The indictment (linked below) says it all.And how was the “No Kings Protest” near you? Ours was very white and very angry. The protesters didn't like us very much, can't imagine why.We tried talking to them so that you didn't have to. Watch the show for an entertaining display of Trump Derangement Syndrome, with a steaming hot side of antisemitism.Someone needs to remind these protesters that there was an election recently that had a very definite result.And two weeks ago our cat scared us more than Joe Biden on a flight of stairs when he (Top Cat) went walkabout while we were out of town, and a neighbor reported a dead tabby near their house. We put two and two together and assumed Top Cat was dead only to be surprised a few hours later when he apparently rose from the dead. For our recovery and Top Cat's comfort, we are remaking/rereleasing our quick recipe for tilapia. Yes, we spoil our kitties.The secret is how you brown the butter.Please go to unreportedstorysociety.com (linked below) and give what you can so that we can keep bringing the weekly scoop, movies, plays and other special projects to you.

Send us a textIt should come as no surprise that Maine is haunted. It's old. It's weather beaten, it's dark... hence the need for all those lighthouses. It's also the home of America's first documented haunting, the ghost of Nelly Butler. So it makes sense that ghosts lurk around every corner. This week we'll uncover the hauntings at the historic Kennebunk Inn. We'll discover the tragedies that unfolded at the Wood Island Lighthouse, leading to multiple specters haunting the high seas. You know we love a good legend, so of course we'll talk about a famous witch's grave in Bowdoin that curses all who steps foot inside her sacred circle of cedar trees.

We bring you this week's episode from Los Angeles and New York City, as we prepare for tomorrow's performance of the OCTOBER 7 play at Bowdoin College in Maine.We traveled to Israel after that terrible day and interviewed survivors, the bereaved and the heroes who saved lives, and brought their testimony to the world in the form of a verbatim play.We are nervous, but excited. It's a dangerous time to bring the truth to College Campuses. And just at the weekend there were threats against a Bowdoin College vigil organised to honor Charlie Kirk. We are ramping up security for the play- we are taking every precaution to ensure the safety of attendees but the bad people who walk among us want to shut us up. They want to prevent you from hearing the truth. We are determined to bring the truth to Bowdoin and colleges across the US. It is the least we can do to honor Charlie Kirk after he was assassinated while doing God's work, bringing the truth to university campuses that preach wokeness and toxic, left-wing ideologies. We are heartbroken for his wife who has been left without a husband and their children who are now without a father. This week we talk about why Charlie Kirk was so effective and why his legacy will always continue, even in the face of danger. You can still come and support the OCTOBER 7 play at Bowdoin. If you know anyone in the area please send them the link below to register. It has been very disturbing to see the response of the many on the hateful left to Charlie's assasination. Particularly disturbing was the number of teachers and so-called educators who openly celebrated his death. We expose them all. It is shocking that they have influence on our children. Phelim also reveals why they are celebrating. He has seen it all before, growing up during the Northern Ireland troubles. You can read the truth about these people through the link below.And we tell you as journalists how to handle breaking news stories such as Charlie's murder - what to watch for and how to untangle the truth from the errors and lies. You can read Phelim's substack on the issue (linked below). As we mentioned OCTOBER 7 the play is coming to Bowdoin College in Maine tomorrow. The play is verbatim with no editorializing and no spin, presented in an American university where Hamas-sympathizing radicals have been intimidating students who don't agree with them. Please register to attend the play at October7Bowdoin.com, or by clicking the link below. We have over 600 seats to fill up and look forward to seeing you at Pickard Theater at 7:30 pm, doors open at 7:00 pm. And please remember that we are a non-profit organization so please go to unreportedstorysociety.com and give what you can so that we can continue to bring our special projects like the play, and our weekly podcast, to you.

Reading of excerpts from Dr Raghavan's essay 'The Eye of Self Existence'. The full text can be found here: https://theosophytrust.org/944-eye-of-self-existenceProfessor Raghavan N. Iyer (1930 -1995) was an internationally known philosopher, political theorist, and spiritual practitioner who devoted his life to the intellectual and spiritual uplift of human society. The only Rhodes Scholar from India in 1950 to Oxford, he secured First Class Honors in Philosophy, Politics and Economics and later earned a D. Phil. Degree in moral and political philosophy. For eight years, he was Fellow and Lecturer in Politics at St. Anthony's College, Oxford, then Visiting Professor at the Universities of Oslo, Ghana and Chicago, and lectured at the College of Europe in Belgium, the Erasmus Seminar in Holland, and at Harvard, Bowdoin, Berkeley, U.C.L.A., Rand Corporation and the California Institute of Technology. He was professor of political philosophy at the University of California, Santa Barbara for 21 years.His message is that a renewed humankind is now emerging, and his writings address the causes of the global situation, the nature of this evolution, and the manner in which individuals can participate fully in this collective transformation.Dr Iyer was a practitioner and member of the Theosophical Foundation and wrote that:"Initiation into Theosophical metaphysics is more than an intellectual or moral enterprise; it is a continuous spiritual exercise in the development of intuitive and cognitive capacities that are the highest available to humans, a process that includes from the first a blending of the head and the heart through the interaction of viveka and vairagya, discrimination and detachment. Even our initial apprehension of a statement of Theosophical metaphysics involves an ethical as well as mental effort, just as even the smallest application of a Theosophical injunction to our moral life requires some degree of mental control and the deeper awareness, universal and impersonal in nature, that comes from our higher cognitive capacities. Moral growth, for a Theosophist, presupposes “the silent worship of abstract or noumenal Nature, the only divine manifestation”, that is “the one ennobling religion of Humanity.”
We have BIG news for you. We are excited to announce that Abby Polin, aunt of Israeli hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin, will be joining us at the Bowdoin performance of OCTOBER 7 the play. As a family member who has lived through the unimaginable pain of October 7, Abby will speak about her family's experiences and the urgent need to bring the remaining hostages home.Here is a message from Abby who was in the audience when the play ran off-Broadway in New York. "I would like to thank all those involved in bringing OCTOBER 7 to Bowdoin. When I first saw the play in New York in June, 2024 I did not know quite what to expect but was overwhelmed by the authenticity and intensity of how the producers clearly portrayed what happened on that horrific day in Israel... The unedited and raw transcripts from interviews with victims, soldiers, and first responders, that were used for the verbatim play characterized what my family experienced being a family of a then severely injured hostage. My nephew Hersh Goldberg Polin was one of the beautiful six young people murdered by terrorists in the tunnels in Gaza after being starved and tortured for 330 days,” she said.“It is important for me to come to Bowdoin to continue to keep up the awareness for the necessity to bring home NOW the remaining 48 hostages being held in Gaza. Everyone from all nationalities, religions and beliefs should have the opportunity to see OCTOBER 7 the play to see what people experienced that day and to gain a better understanding of the situation in that region of the world."OCTOBER 7 is our verbatim play that consists entirely of the words of those who live through Israel's darkest day when Hamas slaughtered 1,200 people and kidnapped hundreds of others. We traveled to Israel after that day and spoke to several of those who lost loved ones, those who survived the attack, even those who fought back. You'll be hearing their testimonies if you are able to come to Bowdoin on Sept. 18.We are trying to fill up more than 600 seats at Pickard Theater on Bowdoin campus, so please register. We look forward to seeing you there. Or send the link to someone in the area who can come.You can register here: https://bowdoin.campusgroups.com/bowdoinconservatives/rsvp_boot?id=1953570We thought this week we should bring you one of our interviews with the October 7 survivors. Assaf was having the time of his life at the NOVA music festival until rockets started to fall. Then he witnessed friends being murdered but he found love and grace and God in his fight for survival. And Britain has really shown its tyranny over free speech when it arrested comedic genius Graham Linehan for tweets about the Trans madness. We had him on the show last year and thought we should rerun parts of that interview now. It is chilling how they want to destroy those who disagree with them. And uber liberal, uber journalist Malcom Gladwell who has made a very lucrative career warning about alleged “social contagions” and how they can be seductive and dangerous now admits he kept quiet because he was scared of standing up to the big bad Trans madness - the most damaging social contagion of all. Aw poor little Malcolm. And he wants us to feel sorry for him. Meanwhile, people like Dr Miriam Grossman have been shouting the truth all along, while navigating the risks of being a therapist going against the status quo in her field. And we love hearing from you and if you leave a comment wherever you get our content, we may read it on the show. We recently had a generous donor has offered to match every dollar you give, up to $10,000. So please go to our website.

We hope that you all had a great Labor Day weekend. We are so excited about the OCTOBER 7 project we have just announced. It has never been more important to bring the truth about that day to college campuses so we are bringing OCTOBER 7 the play to Bowdoin College in Maine. Bowdoin is a prominent college and it was plagued with pro-Palestinian encampments and intimidation after the October 7 massacres. However the world is changing. We have been invited to bring the play to the campus. OCTOBER 7 the play is a verbatim account of what happened on Israel's darkest day- in the words of those who lived through it. Bowdoin is going to get to hear an alternative point of view - and it's a view with no added drama - no protests - no intimidation. Just the truth.We need a big crowd at the event on September 18th.

Watch the show to hear his story about running the only conservative group on campus, how things may be changing and how he helped us bring the play to Bowdoin. On this week's show we look at how a despicable delusional man(who thought he was a woman) shot a group of children while they were praying. And we examine the media malfeasance, which added another level of evil to an already tragic situation. And we also celebrate another victory in the fight against trans madness. Children's Hospital Los Angeles has closed the doors to the horror show it calls a gender clinic, we have to celebrate. Watch the show as we reveal the monster who stands to lose the most. Also Amtrak debuts its next generation trains - and we reveal how they are decidedly last generation. Watch the show where we show you what is surprisingly faster than a next generation train. Again if you're interested in attending OCTOBER 7 the play please register at October7Bowdoin.com(linked below. We need to bring the voices of the survivors, the bereaved and those that fought back after the slaughter of Oct. 7, to every college campus.

The end of the cruel Peace & the start of the desperate War.Based on ‘One In Ten' by FinalStand, adapted into 17 parts. Listen to the ► Podcast at Explicit Novels.A frightened Mother Mouse will devour her young; similarly, a frightened culture will devour its future.It wasn't like a magic force field bubble protected us until our 16th birthday. I couldn't recall all the times after I was 13 some woman asked me, or my Mother, when my 16th birthday would be. Back then, I didn't think much about it. In hindsight, those women were wondering when I would become legally sexually vulnerable. In way too many cases, women with access to teenage boys didn't wait.Even if they did,"It was my Aunt," Barabbas confessed. "She and her boss."You would think a sixteen, or seventeen, year old guy getting to sleep with a Milf would be a trip. It could be. For the boys with better developed empathy, you started to realize a woman you trusted was using your sexuality for their own advancement. Then you began feeling like a whore."She got me a job, but I quit after four months, you know,” he trailed off."Yeah," I sighed sympathetically."Yeah," Lowry snorted, "when the rest decided you should be putting out for free.""That was completely unnecessary," I glared at him."But true," he defied me."True," Barabbas agreed with a familiar degree of rejection."Mom flipped out when she figured out what Tamara; my sister; was doing," Pierre picked up his tale. "I was seventeen by that time. She helped pay for my college." We assumed the 'she' was his sister; the one who pimped him out."I hit one once," Lowry bragged. I found that somewhat difficult to believe."What happened?" Pierre asked."She kicked my ass," he chuckled. "Ex-military Reservist. Beat me like I had a cock." I read somewhere in the old days it was more common to say 'like a little bitch.' Now it was 'like I had a cock' because they didn't like teaching men to be 'too violent' aka how to defend ourselves.No one else felt like inquiring, so Barabbas did the deed."Go to the cops?""For what?" he shook his head. "I threw the first punch, and the second. Fucking Bitch. We both looked pretty rough, but I lost."Another pause."What was it like to hit one with your stick?" Lowry shot me a look."Good, damn good, and stupid. I mean, I could have ended up like you with a crowd of women on a subway kicking and stomping on me and I would have ended up in jail too," I related. "Still, it felt good, just to tell one to keep her hands to herself, ya know?" I got nods all around. We were all young, healthy and relatively handsome."Yeah, you could have gotten your ass kicked," Barabbas reminded me."In fact, one of the major reasons I didn't, gave me the pistol I'm carrying," I twitched it slightly. "The first time they came for me, I asked them ~ the Vanishers ~ to wait, and they did.""Why in the fuck would you do that?" Lowry blurted out, shocked and skeptical."At the time, I didn't trust them since I figured they were nothing more than another bunch of women telling me what to do. I wanted to use them to escape. I didn't want to spend the rest of my life serving them if it meant the same fucked-up existence I was currently living," I shared the enlightenment."What changed your mind?" Pierre's eyes lit up."I figured out their prime motivation, the nature of the conspiracy and that I had no rational chance to escape them," I answered. "Every angle I was figuring out, they had figured out years ago. On the plus side, their core philosophy requires them to engage men as equals for both biological and social reasons ~ which means they are the best game in town. In case you missed it, the Vanishers didn't 'vanish' me. I escaped on my own. They have agreed to join forces with my group; no lie.""Your group has a lot of girls," Lowry drolly noted."Lowry, exactly how was I going to recruit any male to my cause without dropping the entire Metropolitan G E D (Gender Enforcement Division) on me?""Flyers?" Barabbas joked softly."He's got a point," Pierre rallied to my cause. "As far as any of you have confessed, none of us had any guy, or girl, friends. It is why we were selected.""Okay, fine. Now what?" Lowry conceded to the consensus."We wake up tomorrow working toward equality," I huffed. "We are all going to have to learn to fight and shoot because the entire group is going to be in danger for some time to come. Society, as in Global Society, is going to come crashing down. And that means anarchy, lawlessness and barbarism before it violently spasms off into extinction.""We have lived our lives effectively as slaves, though no woman inside that house will admit it truly in their hearts. For the first time in our lives, we can change our futures. I'm sure if we surrender to whomever kills the others, they will enslave us once more and leave us with far fewer illusions about our status. Or, we can chose to fight and, if worst comes to worst, die free. I'm not going back to what I was. That means I will need to learn how to survive; and that means fighting. Not because I hate women, but because there are several I love and respect and I don't want to let them down ~ as their equal.""Tonight, think about what I've told you. Tomorrow morning, I hope you join up with us," I concluded my 'pep talk.'"And if we don't?" Lowry stared defiantly."That is something you are free to do too," I shrugged. "I'm not going to tell you what to do. Let's go back inside. It is late."We'd almost made it back when Lowry put a hand on my shoulder."Can I see the gun now?""This thing? Like this?" I half-turned, made eye contact then flick my eyes down to the pistol then back to him again."Yeah.""Have you ever handled a loaded firearm before?" I requested."Yeah, plenty of times, in my dreams," he mocked me."You are a moron," I felt my blood simmering. "This isn't a game, this (the pistol) isn't a toy, and you have not been paying attention." I put both hands on the pistol, removed the magazine then removed the chambered bullet. Lastly, ass-first, I handed him the empty pistol with my left hand while keeping the ammunition in my right."Moron, huh?" he chuckled. "Gonna give me the bullets?""No, no, I'm not going to give you the bullets because you don't know what you are doing. Unlike you, I actually have had a firearm lesson. More to the point, I won't give you a loaded firearm because I think I've stressed the lady, or ladies, watching over us right now enough for one night.""Huh?" Lowry and Barabbas echoed. Pierre looked around."Wes didn't keep us inside to play '20 Questions' for her own amusement. She kept us occupied so her other teammate, or teammates, could move to this side of the house, so they could watch over us while giving you three the delusion we were alone. They are professionals in camouflage gear with night-vision goggles, so unless they had to move rapidly through the underbrush, we weren't likely to detect them.""I played along because I felt it was necessary for you three to open up a little bit. Life is only going to get tougher over the next few months. None of us want to have a chat with heavily armed women staring over our shoulders, so I took us outside where it would appear we were alone," I explained."You lied to us," Lowry snipped."No. My words were true. What I did was allow you to deceive yourself as to our level of security and amount of company. I did what I did for the good of the group, regardless of gender, Gentlemen. It is how we all need to start thinking. Something else you might want to think about is: everyone I love is with me here today. A good number of people who decided getting in my way was a good thing aren't even alive anymore. I will gladly embrace any one of you as brothers. If you are an obstacle, I will fucking see you gone, one way or another; clear?""We are guys," Lowry insisted smugly. Old thinking: women protected men."I; don't; care," I glared back. "You may be a sperm-shooter, but inside me is the only surefire cure for the Gender Plague. I repeat: people I love, and there are several, are all alive today because I cared and took an active hand in their survival. My enemies are mostly dead. Being a man will save you from the women in there. It won't save you from me.""You'd kill us?" Pierre whispered."Pierre, my Mother died over a year ago. Where are your Mother and Sister? You don't give a damn about a single fucking human being and yet you expect me to trust you? Why?" I challenged him. "I've already proved to multiple people I can reach beyond my shell and give a fuck. Until you rejoin the Human Race, I value the rest of those battling alongside me far more than you, or anyone else regardless of whether they have a penis, or a vagina. I'm not going to snap your neck, stab, or shoot you. I'm simply not going to bother trying to save you. The World is doing a bang-up job of killing the rest of Humanity off, without my assistance.""I really ought to punch you," Lowry threatened."Give it your best shot," I took a step toward him. That wasn't what he, or I, was expecting. I put down my poor judgment and combative demeanor to exhaustion."Don't, guys," Barabbas interceded."You are an Asshole," Lowry snarled."And you are consistently ignoring reality," I snapped back. "For instance, we are not alone out here, plus we are also at the door." I knocked once. The door swung open to reveal a rather attentive and unhappy Wes Prince. I handed her the bullet and magazine."You were listening in?" Lowry turned his anger on her. Wes' eyes went from me, to him, out into the darkness then back to me, though her words were to Lowry."Yes. Of course I was listening in. I wouldn't call him an Asshole. I'd go for Smart-ass." To me, "Do you enjoy being annoyingly correct?""No. I'd be ecstatic to realize I was completely wrong about everything and had lapsed into a mad delusion," I related, my own anger seeping away. "Being right means I have to keep appreciating and respecting you and your compatriots and taking responsibility for my own clumsy contributions to our current situation, which I don't want to do. I want to go to bed.""Come on in and go to bed then," she softened. She made a slight hand gesture. "My pistol, please, Mr. Pritchard?" she requested of Lowry. Grudgingly he gave her the firearm. She stepped aside. Lowry went first, Barabbas second. Pierre gasped slightly because as he went up the steps he noticed the two Vanishers coming toward us from outside ~ the ones I had predicted to be watching us.I went in after Pierre. Wes followed along. Capri and Kuiko were waiting. The lights had already been dimmed throughout most of the rest of the dwelling."Who were those other two guys?" Wes stopped me."Sergeant Major Daly was a Marine N C O and improv poet renowned for his battlefield musings. His most famous philosophical insight into the fighting spirit of men came in World War One. In his words "Come on, you sons of bitches, do you want to live forever?" He also won two Medals of Honor, so he must have had some talent.""Company Sergeant-Major John Robert Osborn was a Canadian; that was the country which now makes up the northern third of our current Federation; who found himself misplaced on the island of Hong Kong in late 1941; him, a handful of lads from Winnipeg and a shitload more Japanese. He and the Japanese ended up in a game of grenade tag,”"Grenade tag?" one of my two 'silent' guardians interrupted."Yes ~ grenade tag. Apparently in the olden days, grenades didn't airburst, or explode on impact. You pulled a pin and threw it at the enemy, then waited for the fuse to burn out and the grenade to go 'Boom!.' Quick, brave, and or stupid people could grab that grenade and toss it back. In some cases, one grenade might make two, or three trips before detonating.""Anyway, the Japanese were so very rudely throwing grenades into the position he and his Winnipeg Grenadiers were defending, so he kept returning them. After eight and a half hours of such fun, he came across one he couldn't toss back in time. He covered it with his body to shield his comrades from the blast, dying instantly. The British Empire gave him something called the Victoria Cross for his actions. He was the first Canadian in World War Two to receive it.""Why do you know such stuff?" she grinned. "Oh, I'm Scar and this is Nat," she indicated the third member of the Wes-Scar-Nat Vanisher trio."I considered myself a coward, so I read a lot about brave men. I was kind of hoping to figure out how I could be brave myself, one day," I disclosed."Mission success," the third one smiled. "Go to bed."I gathered up Capri and Kuiko and did as instructed. As I rested my head on the pillow, lights out and my mind gratefully shutting down."Less impressive sex, Bitch," Capri teased."No," I groaned."They definitely think you've got the 'sexy'," Kuiko enlightened me."Can we please just go to sleep?" I begged.Capri rolled onto her side, back to me, gave me a bump in the hip with her ass, then moved away a tiny bit. Kuiko wiggled close, kissed me lightly on the cheek, and then did the same. Unconsciousness took me before any other worries could steal my much needed slumber.The Larger World:As I struggled for sleep a second time, events unfolding in three different places around the Globe (Asia, the City and the Capitol) would impact my fate.Asia:First; the brutal agony still going on as the Sun disappeared over the horizon wasn't over when I woke up the next morning. It was largely misunderstood for some time afterwards, but was referred to as; the Battle for Shanghai.Five Chinese regular force divisions fought the garrison division of Shanghai, its 'reserve' division, hastily gathered volunteer female formations and a hodge-podge of ancillary forces the United Nations could throw into the fray. The goal for both sides was to seize a mother and her unborn child. Within them were the only other active resistant viral factory killing the T2 Gender Plague. By the time I woke up, both sides were sure the other side had killed them both, pretty much insuring the extinction of all sentient life in Eurasia.I say 'Eurasia' because by dusk of the previous day, the Federation knew for sure I, the other source of a cure for the T2, was still alive and kicking, as were my sons. My sons held a nebulous promise for a future date. I was of immediate importance since my adult body could produce enough antivirals to protect tens of thousands of people on a relatively continuous basis, or so it was projected.With, or without the mother and child, China was done for. Japan and Korea were rapidly circling the drain. North of China, the Plague was racing across Siberian Russia. Central Asia had never really recovered from the first round of the Gender Plague all those years ago so, now off the beaten path, would be longer in dying. India had too many outbreaks to even dream of containment. Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and the Levant Republic all had reported cases as well.Europe:Beyond the Urals, the Europeans were grappling with the looming fear of a global economic collapse along with the Specter of Death though 48 hours into the crisis, there were no cases to report yet. Civil order was teetering. Several nations had either closed their borders, or were considering doing so. Women began hording food, and men.Africa:

Sarah Bakes at Bowdoin by Maine's Coast 93.1
An auto repair receipt, a red Toyota, and a dog named Major. On July 6th of 1988, 12-year-old Sarah Cherry had landed her first babysitting job for a family in Bowdoin, Maine. Sarah was excited as she headed over to the Henkel home to watch their 10-month-old daughter. But when Mrs. Henkel returned home from work that day, she found her baby sound asleep in her crib but no sign of her babysitter. She searched for Sarah but found no trace of her. What she did find was a receipt in the driveway bearing the name Dennis Dechaine.

When people think of major sports hubs in the United States, places like Boston, New York, or Los Angeles come to mind. Maine, on the other hand, might not immediately be thought of as a sports state, but the reality is quite the opposite. Maine has a rich and exciting sports scene, with professional teams, college athletics, and thriving local leagues that provide fans and athletes alike with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the game. Whether you love hockey, baseball, basketball, soccer, or even “old guy hockey” as I like to call it, Maine has something for you. If you're considering making Maine your home, the sports culture here is just another reason to get excited about moving to the Pine Tree State.Professional Sports in MaineDespite its small size, Maine is home to several professional sports teams, each bringing exciting competition and passionate fan bases to the state. The Maine Mariners, a professional hockey team in the ECHL, serve as an affiliate of the Boston Bruins and play their home games at the Cross Insurance Arena in Portland. The Mariners have developed a strong following, offering an affordable and thrilling hockey experience for fans who might not want to make the trip to Boston for NHL action. Every year, we host a special Maine Mariners event for our clients, creating a fun and exciting way to connect with the community and enjoy some high-quality hockey.Baseball fans in Maine rally behind the Portland Sea Dogs, the Double-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox. Hadlock Field, where the Sea Dogs play, is considered one of the best minor league stadiums in the country, and it's the perfect place to catch future MLB stars in action. With a family-friendly atmosphere, plenty of themed nights, and the beloved mascot, Slugger the Sea Dog, it's no surprise that a day at Hadlock Field is a favorite activity for locals. In the past, we've hosted Portland Sea Dogs events as well, and it's always a fantastic time.For basketball fans, the Maine Celtics, formerly known as the Maine Red Claws, represent the state in the NBA G League as an affiliate of the Boston Celtics. The team plays at the Portland Expo Center, providing an opportunity to watch up-and-coming NBA talent before they hit the big leagues. Attending a Maine Celtics game is a great way to experience fast-paced basketball action without the high costs of an NBA ticket.Perhaps the most exciting new addition to Maine's sports scene is the Portland Hearts of Pine, a professional soccer team competing in USL League Two. This marks a huge milestone for Maine soccer, as it provides a stepping stone for future MLS players and gives local soccer fans a team of their own to support. The Hearts of Pine play their home games at Fitzpatrick Stadium in Portland, and with soccer's growing popularity in the state, this team is set to build an exciting fanbase.College Athletics in MaineMaine's college sports scene is just as lively as its professional leagues. The University of Maine Black Bears boast a Division I football program in the Coastal Athletic Association and have produced NFL players, including Baltimore Ravens fullback Pat Ricard. The school's hockey program is even more legendary, with two NCAA national championships to its name. The Black Bears' hockey games in Orono are some of the most electrifying sporting events in the state, with passionate fans creating an incredible atmosphere.Another noteworthy college sports rivalry exists between Bowdoin, Colby, and Bates, three historic Division III colleges in Maine. This rivalry has been alive for over a century, and fans of these schools take their athletic competitions seriously. Bowdoin College, in particular, has one of the most beautiful hockey rinks in New England, and their games bring in a dedicated following. If you're looking for a tight-knit college sports community, these schools deliver an experience that is steeped in history and tradition.Local and Adult Leagues in MaineMaine isn't just a great place to watch sports—it's also an amazing place to play them. Soccer has exploded in popularity across the state, with local leagues like Seacoast United, GPS Maine, and the Portland Coed Soccer League offering adults of all skill levels a chance to get on the field. Whether you're looking for competitive play or just a fun way to stay active, there's a soccer league in Maine for you.For those who prefer ice over grass, hockey remains a staple of Maine's sports culture. That's where "old guy hockey" comes in—a term I use to describe the incredible adult hockey scene in the state. If you're over 30 and still want to lace up your skates, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved. Pickup games, beer leagues, and friendly tournaments are played regularly at venues like the Family Ice Center in Falmouth and Troubh Ice Arena in Portland. Playing hockey isn't just about competition; it's also about camaraderie, staying active, and reliving the love of the game.Maine is also home to an impressive golf scene, with over 100 golf courses spread across the state. Whether you're teeing off at Belgrade Lakes Golf Club or playing a round at Cape Arundel Golf Club—where former presidents have been known to hit the links—there's no shortage of stunning courses to explore. The Maine Golf Association offers plenty of tournaments and opportunities for golfers to stay competitive while enjoying the scenic beauty of Maine.Why You Need a Realtor When Moving to MaineIf you're thinking about moving to Maine and want to enjoy everything the local sports scene has to offer, working with an experienced Realtor is essential. A Realtor can help you find homes near stadiums, sports venues, and recreational facilities, making it easy to stay connected to the teams and activities you love. Additionally, Realtors understand the local market, helping you find the best deals and navigate Maine's real estate landscape with confidence.Without the help of a Realtor, homebuyers risk overpaying, missing hidden inspection issues, and getting lost in complicated legal disclosures. A trusted agent not only finds you the perfect home but also helps integrate you into the community—whether that means pointing you toward the best hockey league, connecting you with a local soccer team, or even inviting you to our annual Maine Mariners event!Join Us for Our Annual Maine Mariners Event!Every year, we host a special client event at a Maine Mariners game, bringing together sports fans, homebuyers, and members of the Make Maine Your Home family. It's a fantastic night filled with exciting hockey, fun prizes, and the chance to connect with other people who love living in Maine. If you're thinking about buying or selling a home here, partnering with us means you're not just getting a Realtor—you're joining a community.Final Thoughts on Maine's Sports SceneMaine has far more to offer sports fans than most people realize. From professional teams and college rivalries to local leagues and recreational activities, there's no shortage of ways to get involved in the sports culture here. Whether you're looking to attend games, play in a league, or live close to the action, Maine's vibrant sports scene makes it an exciting place to call home. If you're thinking about making the move, I'd love to help you find the perfect home that fits your lifestyle.

Plus, a Bates running back made NESCAC history, that's this week, on the Bates Bobcast!

This week, Drewby drive a couple miles to Bowdoin, Maine, to discuss the case of Sarah Cherry. Normally, we'd give you a case preview, but not this time. We've been working on this case for the better part of two years, and it's one that's extremely close to our hearts due to it's proximity to us. As I'm sure you know by now, we try our very best to present our cases as neutrally as possible - or at the very least, as neutrally as the readily available information will allow. This case is very difficult for us due to the fact that the police in charge of case botched it all ways possible. This included destroying DNA evidence, lying in court, altering documents, ignoring two very likely suspects, and railroading a local farmer on circumstantial evidence alone. Please listen to all of the evidence carefully and let us know your thoughts. Did the police get their guy? Or has an innocent man been locked up in our supermax for decades? This wouldn't be the first time... We want the right person behind bars. If that's Dennis, then I'm happy they caught him quickly. But they need to prove it, and without ignoring all other avenues of people who fit the profile much better than Dennis did. They didn't do that here.

This Day in Maine for Monday, July 1st, 2024.
In this week's podcast, I dive into this year's crazy admissions results. Take a look at the admit rates of a sampling of popular colleges: Amherst 9% Bowdoin 7% Brown 5% Colby 6% Columbia 4% Dartmouth 5% and the list goes on... What exactly is going on here? Single-digit acceptance rates as far as the eyes can see. I walk through an example of how an unhooked student has to compete against 10,000 similarly-credentialed students for just 300 spots at a popular college.

We start today’s show with tragic news coming out of Lewiston Maine, as a gun man shot and killed at least 18 people, and wounded 13 more… https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/lewiston-maine-mass-shooting-october-26 Maine State Police have released a detailed timeline of the mass shooting in Lewiston that killed at least 18 people and injured 13 more at two separate locations Wednesday night as the manhunt for suspect Robert Card intensified across the state. At 6:56 p.m., the Auburn Communications Center was alerted that an unidentified man walked into Just-In-Time Bowling, which was recently renamed from Sparetime Recreation, on Mollison Street in Lewiston and began shooting. Police said multiple 911 calls that followed confirmed the shooting. At 7:08 p.m., the Auburn Communications Center received multiple calls that a man had entered a Bar and Grille Restaurant on Lincoln Street and opened fire. Police said multiple law enforcement agencies and emergency medical personnel were immediately dispatched to the locations, which are about 4 miles apart. At 8:06 pm, police released a photo of the alleged shooter to the media. The surveillance photo showed a man wearing a brown sweatshirt and holding a rifle while walking through doors decorated with bowling pins and a bowling ball. At 9:26 p.m., the Lewiston Police Department received a call identifying the man in the distributed photos as Robert Card, 40, of Bowdoin, Maine. At 9:56 p.m., the Lisbon Police Department notified Lewiston Police that it had located a white Subaru at the at a Boat Launch in Lisbon. The vehicle was confirmed to belong to Card. Card remains at large as more than 350 law enforcement personnel from federal, state and local agencies continue to search for him. Authorities stress that Card should be considered armed and dangerous. Card is a "trained firearms instructor" who recently reported mental health issues,including "hearing voices and threats to shoot up the National Guard Base in Saco, ME," according to a Maine law enforcement bulletin shared with Fox News Digital. Card is also a Petroleum Supply Specialist in the Army Reserve, having enlisted in December 2002, an Army spokesperson told Fox News, adding that Card has had no combat deployments. Officials have yet to publicly name any of the 18 victims, and police said Thursday morning 10 of the victims killed have yet to be identified. Police have confirmed that seven people — one female and six males — were killed at the bowling alley, which was holding a youth league at the time of the shooting. Eight males were killed at the Bar and Grille. Three additional people died after first responders rushed them to Central Maine Medical Hospital in Lewiston. An additional 13 people were injured in the shootings. At least 80 FBI agents are involved in the search for Robert Card, in addition to agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Drug Enforcement Administration, and Coast Guard, according to Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine. Collins made the comments during a press conference on Thursday evening. "I had a call from the deputy director of the FBI who told me that there were 80 FBI agents on site participating in the search for the killer," Collins said. State and local law enforcement agencies are also searching for Card. Before we move on, I want to ask that you be praying for the community of Lewiston Maine today… pray that the Lord would be near the broken hearted as is promised in His word… that He would bind up their wounds, and grant comfort and peace to those who are grieving the loss of loved ones. Be praying that the Lord would be with local leaders in Maine, both political and law enforcement… and that justice would be served on the one responsible for this heinous crime, and tragic loss of life. https://justthenews.com/government/congress/johnson-begins-house-speakership-focus-debt-inflation-and-border-catastrophe Johnson begins House speakership with focus on debt, inflation, ‘border catastrophe’ as top issues Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La., the newly elected Speaker of the House of Representatives kicked off his leadership role on Wednesday with a commitment to establish a fiscal commission dedicated to rolling back excessive government spending as a way to reduce inflation. He also called on the Senate and White House to stop ignoring the “catastrophe” at the southern border. Johnson described the nation’s rising $33 trillion national debt as the greatest threat to national security and connected it to the level of inflation that America’s families have been grappling with the last few years. JUST IN: Mike Johnson Delivers First Remarks As Speaker Of The House Play 11:36-16:09 Just a note, not a lot of clapping from democrats on that last part. https://www.19fortyfive.com/2023/10/u-s-aircraft-carriers-and-marines-are-on-the-move-towards-irans-military-backyard/ U.S. Aircraft Carriers And Marines Are On The Move Towards Iran’s ‘Military Backyard’ The situation in Israel continues to be tense as the Israeli Defense Forces are on standby to launch a large-scale ground invasion of Gaza. As of now, Tel Aviv has agreed to hold off invading until the U.S. military puts more forces in the area. The Israeli Air Force is pounding hundreds of targets within Gaza, killing and wounding hundreds of Hamas terrorists and Palestinian civilians. On the other end, Hamas continues to be defiant, launching missiles and small-scale attacks against Israel. The terrorist group also holds scores of hostages and is threatening to execute them if Israel invades. According to the German newspaper Bild, the Israelis won’t hold back a possible ground invasion of Gaza over the issue of the hostages. Hamas is currently holding over 200 hostages and has been using them as deterrence against an Israeli ground invasion. But with more than 1,400 Israelis killed and thousands more wounded, the Israeli government might very likely choose to go in and destroy Hamas despite what might happen to the hostages. The Israeli Army is likely waiting for the air force to take out the most important targets before it rolls in with tanks and armored personnel carriers. Meanwhile, two more hostages were released this week as two elderly women, were released on Wednesday. One of the women said, “When we arrived in Gaza, they first told us that they believed in the Quran and would not harm us, they fed us well, were kind, a doctor and paramedic visited us regularly, everything was provided for us.” But their experience leading up to their captivity in Gaza was traumatic. Hostages were beaten and humiliated as they were snatched from their homes in Israel to Gaza’s underground tunnel complex. Meanwhile, the international military presence around Israel continues to grow. European countries are getting ready for forceful evacuations of their citizens from Israel and Lebanon. German and French special operations forces have set up camp in Cyprus and are on standby for contingencies. The U.S. military has already sent two aircraft carrier strike groups in the region and the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), which is special operations capable. The Pentagon has also relocated a number of C-130 tactical transport aircraft and support personnel to Greece to be on standby for potential evacuation operations. Thus far, Israel has been adamant that it doesn’t want any direct military assistance or foreign boots on the ground. However, Tel Aviv was allowed a number of U.S. military advisors to support the Israeli Defense Forces. According to Axios, U.S. Marine Corps Lt. Gen. James Glynn, a former commander of the Marine Forces Special Operations Command and with experience against the Islamic State, is leading the advisory group. The increased presence of U.S. forces in the region is also in response to credible threats about U.S. citizens and facilities in the region. According to U.S. defense officials, the Pentagon assesses that state and non-state actors in the region—mainly Iran—are considering escalating the ongoing hostilities between Israel and Hamas into a wider regional conflict. The U.S. military is ready to counter any hostile actions in the area. Whether Iran understands the danger is another thing. Now in entertainment news… https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/jenna-fischer-angela-kinsey-office-reboot-update/ ‘Office’ Alums Jenna Fischer, Angela Kinsey: No News on a Reboot (Yet) “The Office” is one of the most streamed sitcoms around. The show, spun from the British version created by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, aired on NBC for nine seasons. The workplace comedy nearly got canceled after its first year, but it found its creative footing and became a modern TV classic. The show said goodbye in 2013, with cast members like Steve Carell and John Krasinski drawing raves for follow-up projects like “Foxcatcher” and “A Quiet Place,” respectively. Now, Puck News reports show runner Greg Daniels is prepping an “Office” reboot. That’s news to show alums Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey, AKA the hosts of the popular “Office Ladies” podcast. The two discussed a possible show return via their podcast, throwing some cold water on the possibility. “We get asked all the time, there are always these rumors of another American version [of ‘The Office’],” Fischer said in the latest episode of “Office Ladies.” “Like a reboot or a remake or a spinoff.” “No one has ever in all of these years … contacted me about being on another version of ‘The Office.’ Or any cast member,” said Fischer, who played receptionist Pam Beesly on the series. “Whenever I talk to the cast members., ‘never heard of anything. Not a word.'” “Do we need a 50-year-old Pam sitting at a desk at Dunder Mifflin?” referring to turning that age next year. One cast member should definitely be invited back, she suggested. “I like the idea that Creed still works there .. he comes down from the ceiling at night,” Fischer said of the mercurial character played by ex-rocker Creed Bratton.
*These statistics were current at the time of this recording.* Maine Governor Janet Mills has confirmed a devastating shooting incident that left at least 18 people dead and 13 injured in Lewiston. The suspect, identified as Robert Card, is currently at large, and state police have issued a murder warrant for his arrest. The tragedy unfolded at a bowling alley and restaurant in Lewiston, where Card opened fire, causing chaos and fear among patrons. The shooting occurred around 7 p.m. on Wednesday, prompting a massive response from law enforcement agencies and a shelter-in-place advisory for residents. Governor Mills expressed her deep condolences to the affected community, stating, "This city did not deserve this terrible assault on its citizens, on its peace of mind, on its sense of security." Robert Card, a 40-year-old firearms instructor believed to be in the U.S. Army Reserve, has been identified as the primary suspect. Maine State Police Col. William Ross announced that a warrant for Card's arrest has been issued on eight counts of murder, with the possibility of additional charges as the remaining victims are identified. The suspect's history reveals that Card had been committed to a mental health facility for two weeks in the summer of 2023, although details of his treatment remain undisclosed. Authorities received reports of Card expressing threats to "shoot up" a military base, further emphasizing the seriousness of the situation. The tragedy unfolded across two locations, with an active shooter reported at Schemengees Bar and Grille and Sparetime Recreation, a nearby bowling alley. Witnesses recounted their terrifying experiences, with one individual describing hearing about 10 shots, initially mistaking them for balloons popping. Schools across the region took precautions, with some closing as far away as Kennebunk, more than 50 miles from Lewiston. Additionally, Bates and Bowdoin colleges canceled classes, along with the Gorham and Portland campuses of the University of Southern Maine. The incident has raised concerns about gun laws in Maine, which does not require permits to carry guns and has a strong gun ownership culture tied to hunting and sport shooting traditions. Recent attempts to tighten gun laws, such as background checks for private sales and a 72-hour waiting period for purchases, have faced resistance. Notable author Stephen King, who lives near the affected area, expressed his sentiments on the issue, saying, "It's the rapid-fire killing machines, people. This is madness in the name of freedom. Stop electing apologists for murder." The shooting in Lewiston marks the 36th mass killing in the United States this year, according to a database maintained by The Associated Press and USA Today in partnership with Northeastern University. It has left the community reeling and ignited a nationwide conversation about the urgent need for gun control measures.
