According to an absolutely shocking study
that has just been released, one area of the Pacific Ocean floor was 98
percent covered by decomposing sea creatures in July 2012. But in March
2012, only 1 percent of that same section of the Pacific Ocean floor
was covered by dead sea creatures. This study has been going on for 24
years, and the scientists that are running this study say that during
“the past 2 years” they have seen “the biggest amounts of this detritus
by far”. In other words, the scientists that are studying this section
of the ocean floor have never seen anything quite like this before. And
when you consider this in conjunction with all of the other reports
that have been coming in of sea creatures dying all over the Pacific Ocean, it is only natural to start asking some hard questions. Could radiation from Fukushima be responsible for all of this death?

Pope Benedict Reportedly Defrocked 400 Priests in 2 Years
A document obtained by The Associated Press on Friday shows Pope
Benedict XVI defrocked nearly 400 priests over just two years for
sexually molesting children.
The statistics for 2011 and 2012 show a dramatic increase over the 171
priests removed in 2008 and 2009, when the Vatican first provided
details on the number of priests who have been defrocked. Prior to that,
it had only publicly revealed the number of alleged cases of sexual
abuse it had received and the number of trials it had authorized.

Officer-Involved Shooting
The Spokane Investigative Regional Response (SIRR) Team continues to investigate the officer involved shooting that occurred last night. Detectives have cleared the scene and will continue to interview witnesses and officers involved in the coming days. The suspect, 29 year old Aaron Johnson, has been charged with second degree assault and remains hospitalized at Sacred Heart Medical Center.
On January 16, 2014, at 8:59 pm, Spokane Police Department (SPD) responded to Truth Ministries at 1901 E Sprague after receiving a 911 call about a man with a weapon. Officers arrived within five minutes and found Johnson in the alley behind Truth Ministries, armed with a knife. Officers attempted to calm Johnson and get him to drop his knife. A Taser was deployed but did stop Johnson, who continued to advance on an officer. Two SPD officers fired their service weapons, hitting Johnson. Officers and firefighters from the nearby fire station provided medical aid and Johnson was transported to Sacred Heart Medical Center.
The Critical Incident Protocol has been invoked and the Spokane Investigative Regional Response Team (SIRR Team) is currently conducting the investigation. The Washington State Patrol will be the managing agency for this incident. The SIRR team is composed of members of the Washington State Patrol, Spokane County Sherriff’s Office, and the Spokane Police Department.

The star of the The Blue Collar Comedy Tour was in Wenatchee on Jan. 15 for his first-ever live appearance in North Central Washington. Catherine and I happened into Sticks Cigar Bar, drawn in by their cool outdoor fireplaces and a number of folks enjoying a mild outdoor January evening around the fires. When we got our drink Dave the owner asked if we were fans of Larry The Cable Guy well it worked out that he was holding court out by the fireplaces. When we walked into the tent Catherine asked a couple of gents it the chairs at their table were available upon introductions it turned out she had picked Larry and Tom's table. They talked for a moment or so and when Larry turned to me I shook his hand and asked if he was Jeff Foxworthy. Larry cracked up and answered, "Yeah, but I gained a lot of weight!" We ended up sitting with him and Tom until they had to head out to the show.
