Here’s an interview with Billie in 2005 with Sports Illustrated. I remember reading this back then and being super surprised at what a jock he is lol. All I could find while trying to google for this was this bonus interview I guess? So there’s that too.

Q&A: Billie Joe Armstrong

Posted: Thursday September 8, 2005 1:13PM; Updated: Thursday September 8, 2005 2:31PM

Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day (http://www.greenday.com/) for the magazine's weekly Q&A. The band is part of the NFL's Kickoff Weekend. Here are additional excerpts from the interview.

SI: On a level of 1 to 10, what level of sports fan are you?

Armstrong: I still follow football and the Raiders a little bit. Probably a 6.5. Maybe I shouldn't say I'm a Raider fan going into the Pats game.

SI: Do you know you share a birthday with some of the most famous athletes of all time?

Armstrong: Let me think. Who could it be? Joe DiMaggio?

SI:Jim Brown and Michael Jordan were both born on Feb. 17. You think Jordan knows he shares a birthday with Billie Joe Armstrong?

Armstrong: That's awesome, but God forbid Jordan knows he shares a birthday with me.

SI: You, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tre Cool were at a restaurant in Park Square watching the Sox sweep the Cardinals. Describe the scene afterward?

Armstrong: It was one of the most surreal moments I've ever seen. Everyone that happy. We went outside of the bar and just watched people walk and parade down the street. People were floating. It was like they were levitating. If there was one moment that I could think of watching hordes of people in total harmony and bliss, it was watching the Red Sox fans after Boston swept the Series.

SI: Do you any similarities between your music and the outlaw image of the Raiders?

Armstrong: I would definitely say the Oakland Raiders are the punk rock band of football. I don't think there's an NFL player that honestly couldn't say I would look really good wearing silver and black. Even when Jerry Rice came over, he just looked good. There was a sense of pride about him. It was like, 'F*** yeah, I'm wearing the silver and black'.

SI: Growing up in Oakland, what did the A's and Raiders mean to your life?

Armstrong: My Dad would take me to see the A's play and I remember watching the last Super Bowl that Oakland was in before it went down to Los Angeles. The Raiders played the Eagles and I remember Kenny King scoring a long touchdown down the sideline. We grew up in the East Bay so there were 49ers fans and Raiders fans. All the tough guys in school wore Raiders hats. All the 49ers fans got beat up the Raiders fans when I was in high school.

SI: How did the band get involved with the NFL?

Armstrong: The first thing we ever did was Madden 2005. We had American Idiot on there. Then they asked us to do the Patriots game. Last year we were in Boston when the Red Sox won. The next night we played in Worcester, put on Red Sox hats and played We Are the Champions That was probably the smartest thing I've ever done.

SI: You likely gained some sports fans simply by being in the Madden game?

Armstrong: I think so, yeah. The way the culture goes. For a lot of kids and whoever, people will buy video games before they even buy a record. For some young people, their first experience ever hearing punk rock music was playing the Green Bay Packers on Madden.

SI: Is football the sport you most relate to?

Armstrong: Football is the one I played the most as a kid.

SI: Describe your brief football career at John Swett High School in Crockett, Calif.

Armstrong: I played my freshman year. Wide receiver and halfback. All the sophomores had the seniority on junior varsity and I ended up switching back and forth with this guy who was a sophomore. I was faster than him but because he was on he team before, he automatically had the job. They ended up putting me there during the running plays. The quarterback from the team is an old friend of mine. He actually gave me the jersey a year and a half ago.

SI: What was your football highlight?

Armstrong: I ended up scoring the only touchdown pass the last game of the season. The lowlight was the first kickoff of the season. I received it. All of a sudden these monsters were running after me. I remember running down the sideline and getting past all these guys. I was just running for the fear of God. All of a sudden I was on the opposing team's sideline and I got blasted. I looked up and it was the f------ kicker. That set the tone for the entire season. Me running out for passes and getting blasted by free safeties.

SI: Why did you quit?

Armstrong: I started getting into punk rock music. I started to hate the jocks. Blah. Blah. Blah. My brother David was a great athlete and I knew there was no way I could live up to that. I knew I could play guitar. I started getting into music and my grades got really bad.

SI: There's a quote from you where you said we are bombarding with useless information, whether its the Michael Jackson trial or Terry Schiavo. Do you think people are bombarded with useless information when it comes to athletics?

Armstrong: I think so. Sometimes I think the steriod use gets sort of out of hand. It's steroids, it sucks, guys injecting themselves. At the same time I feel the media blows it out of proportion too. And I think people then lose interest because they can't find anything honest in sport. For kids, instead of trying to keep it under raps to a certain degree, this is what they hear. That baseball players and NFL players are all f****** junkies. It just gets blasted out of proportion and the kids don't find any positive things going on. No wonder the Oakland A's can't pack the Coliseum.

SI: Is there one stadium that you enjoyed playing in because of the sports connection?

Armstrong: I took my kid to see his first baseball game at SBC Park and I went to see the Rolling Stones there and a couple of years later. Now here I am to do my own headline show. Amazing.

SI: What's your favorite thing about sports?

Armstrong: The thing I love about is that the athletes nowadays are such amazing physical specimens. The things that people do now in sports, you can't even believe. These are complete total athletes. To see what human beings can do in the highest level is amazing.

SI: What pisses you off about sports?

Armstrong: It's the way that athletes go from team to team all the time regardless if it's the money. I like the fact that you know Brett Favre will retire a Green Bay Packer. I like the fact that he's a franchise player. I think there's that sort of loyalty. You look at Favre and he has that loyalty to his team no matter what. The lack of loyalty, whether it comes from the owners or players, that's the part that bums you out.

A Gentleman Never Tells - Chris Adams

Gentleman Chris Adams is a name that many people miss when they talk about wrestlers from the UK who not only did good business in the US during the 80’s but helped to train some of the biggest names in professional wrestling during the 90’s and helped to bring to light one of the most popular finishers in the industry today.

Chris Adams was born in Rugby, Warwickshire on 10th February 1955 and from a young age was involved in competitive Judo, which he continued training in exclusively for around 14 years which he earned a Black Belt in the discipline. Both he and his brother Neil competed in national and world championships, with Neil actually winning a silver medal in the 1980 and 1984 Olympics. Chris was a member of the 1976 Olympic team but never competed for Great Britain.

Chris Adams began taking part in Professional Wrestling in 1978. He had no formal training in wrestling and used his expertise in Judo in his early years of wrestling. He worked with Joint Promotions and appeared on ITV’s World of Sport regularly taking on the likes on Mark ‘Rollerball’ Rocco, Dynamite Kid, Fit Finlay, Adrian Street and Davey Boy Smith. His finishing move, originally called ‘the Judo Kick’ was later renamed a ‘Superkick’ and is still used by many professional wrestlers today.

By 1983, Adams was approached by Fritz Von Erich to work for World Class Championship Wrestling and he officially joined on 15th April, 1983. During his time with WCCW, he feuded with many of the company’s big stars, from The Von Erichs to Ric Flair, and the Fabulous Freebirds. He was tag partners with Gino Hernandez and became the second iteration of The Dynamic Duo in 1985, where one of their most notable matches was a hair match against the Von Erichs which The Duo lost and were shaved in front of a rapturous crowd.

Chris was due to go into a feud with Gino going into 1986. They had worked an angle against The Cosmic Cowboys, who were actually Kevin and Kerry Von Erich in disguise. The finish to the match was Adams being blinded by hair cream that was thrown by Hernandez, resulting in a loss against the Cowboys. Chris used this time in the storyline to go back to the UK and visit him family, but during that time, on 2nd February 1986, Gino Hernandez died of a Cocaine Overdose. Adams was questioned by Scotland Yard about Gino’s death as authorities in Texas originally treated the incident as a homicide, but this was later changed to an Overdose by officials. There is still some scepticism over Hernandez death today.

Shortly after this, Adams started to become involved in a number of high-profile altercations, many of which would hamper his career despite his talent in the ring. In June of 1986 while travelling back from a show in Puerto Rico, Adams headbutted an Airline pilot and punched a male attendant. This resulted in a 90-day jail and a $500 fine. It is believed that Adams’ belligerence was a result of being denied alcohol by an FAA inspector and that he was restrained by Kevin Von Erich in the process. By September of 1986, Adams had left WCCW to join Bill Watts’ UWF but later returned to WCCW in 1987 as UWF was absorbed into the NWA.

In UWF, Adams became tag partners with Terry Taylor, known to many as The Red Rooster in WWF in later years. They later feuded and carried this back over into the newly acquired by NWA, WCCW. Over the next few years, Adams would find himself in the upper mid-card region of the company’s talent pool, competing against many of the companies’ big stars and also working with companies like Georgia Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Alliance.

In 1988, Chris Adams opened his own training school based out of the world-famous Dallas Sportatorium. Two of his most popular students were Scott Hall/Razor Ramon and Stone-Cold Steve Austin. In 1989, Adams was arrested and sentenced to a year’s probation after his wife was found beaten after Adams had flown into a rage, again related to his Alcohol abuse. He was later involved in more legal troubles and again place don probation for 2 DUI arrests in 1991.

After the WCCW has ceased business in 1990, Adams returned to the independent circuit. He would visit numerous territories having matches for various championships during this time. He won the GWF Heavyweight Title on 2 occasions in 1994 and also a brief stint as the NWA Heavyweight champion in 1995 after Jim Crockett had taken control of the company.

He continued wrestling with various NWA affiliated territories and other independents up until joining WCW in 1997.

When joining WCW, Chris was placed into a British stable called The Blue Bloods alongside Lord Steven Regal (later William Regal) and Squire David Taylor. This stable was not together for very long due to some personal issues between Regal and Adams which hampered the stable from becoming credible in the eyes of the WCW officials. Adams wrestled against Randy Savage in the first match of WCW’s new midweek show, Thunder in 1998. Adams got a pinfall over Savage, but the decision was overturned by JJ Dillon after interference from Lex Luger swayed the match in Adams’ favour. He began to drop down the card, working as an enhancement for other talents to get victories over. He left the company in 1999 and returned to Texas where he began promoting shows and wrestling part time.

During his career, Adams unfortunately fell victim to a number of addictions, his first with Alcohol. David Manning said in the Documentary ‘Gentleman’s Choice’ that his Alcohol dependency was heightened after a flight cancellation due to unforeseen circumstances by the airline prompted them to offer a free bar to the wrestlers on the flight, not for a few drinks but for several hours until a flight was arranged for them.

Adams was also a heavy user of GHB, which at the time was being used by bodybuilders and wrestlers alike as an alternative to steroids but it did not have the same anabolic effects as steroids and left longer addictive tendencies with the users. Many of the people using them believed that the GHB worked while they slept.

Adams and his then girlfriend Linda Kaphengst overdosed on a combination of alcohol and GHB in April 2000. Adams survived, but Kaphengst was not so lucky. The overdose starved her brain of oxygen and her family were told that should she survive, she would likely have long term brain trauma. A few hours later, her situation worsened, and her family had to make the difficult to turn off her breathing apparatus.

Adams was not originally suspected in any foul play at the time of the incident and went on to marry again in August 2001, but an intoxicated and threatening voicemail left on answer machine to Pam Hernandez stating that if she did not stop meddling in his affairs then she would ‘end up like Linda’. This voicemail was brought to the Homicide team dealing with Linda’s death and Chris was indicted on a manslaughter charge.

He was due to be indicted but the day before his hearing, he was fatally shot in the chest during a drunken fight with a close friend Brent ‘Booray’ Parnell on October 7th, 2001. Booray claimed self-defence, stating that Adams snapped off a piece of bedframe and tried to attack him with it. Booray claims in the documentary ‘Gentleman’s Choice’ that he does not know the reason for Adams’ behaviour at the time, other than asking him to keep the noise down as his mother was sleeping in the next room. He said that his eyes were black and almost demonic at the time of the fight, which is a known side effect of the drug GHB.

Booray was cleared of all charges against him as acting in self-defence.

Adams, although a clean-cut Olympic prospect from the UK, fell victim to the harsh lifestyles of living on the road as a professional wrestler. Though many still speak of him based on the poor choices he made during his life, many still speak of the apt moniker ‘Gentleman’ given to the late Judoka-turned-Wrestler.

His legacy of wrestling some of the sport’s greatest names in the 80’s and 90’s, training future hall of fame wrestlers and one of the UK’s least discussed exports is somewhat tarnished by his final days.

I have posted the link from Youtube to the 2008 documentary ‘Gentleman’s Choice’ below uploaded in full by The Hannibal TV.

If you have liked this post, please leave a review and follow for future posts.

Thanks!

For better or for worse, I have a job that is exempt - to a great degree - from the widespread need for isolation (in the world of news radio, the show must go on). However, I do get days off and thank goodness for that because my brain can only take so much constant pandemic talk.

Coffee. An odd feeling of having no place to go today. Of course there is a lot to do...restocking the larder, etc. But, predictably, a rather empty feeling as I ease back into unemployment.

No need to take Covid home kit test...I still have a few of them left over.

World Series game rained out in Philly. It’s raining a bit here too but the West Village Halloween parade is going on as usual. Channel One is carrying it. The kids are doing their elaborate “Thriller” dance...(Hmm. Maybe not all of them are kids.) No trick or treaters in the building. There were a few kids living here but now they are all college age.

Apropos of very little: Some years back I went to a wedding reception next to a golf course. We guests were instructed to go outside for a spectacle we were sure to enjoy. The father of the bride and two skydiving buddies were going to land amid us on the links. I heard the putt-putt of a smallish plane. I kept thinking: oh-my-God what next? But the men jumped and landed and there wass laughter all around.

I thought about this when I read of a skydiving incident that took place in East Tennessee last month. Prior to the annual football contest called the Musket Bowl, in which Daniel Boone High School plays their arch rival David Crockett High School, a local dad was going to skydive onto the field. Everything went as planned but the jumper didn’t survive a hard landing. We learn that there was a full minute of silence prior to the game.

World Series now in Phillies. Looking at the stands I don’t see even a trace of Astro orange. All red. Phillies beat up on Astros.

Umbra Stages in Newburgh

Sixty miles north of Manhattan’s Columbus Circle, in the historic city of Newburgh, Umbra Stages is helping fuel the robust growth of the film and television production and post-production industries across the Hudson Valley. Fully equipped stages, post-production suites, thousands of feet of shop space and furnished offices, dressing rooms, and a hands-on management team of experienced filmmakers have combined to make Umbra an attractive base for productions looking to take advantage of the myriad scenic locations, local crew base and up to 40% tax credits available in the picturesque Hudson Valley region.

Established in 2011 by owner Ted Doering in a 16,000-square-foot motorcycle parts warehouse, Umbra has undergone major upgrades in recent years. Many of the improvements came under the supervision of Summer Crockett Moore and Tony Glazer of Choice Films, independent producers with extensive production credits. “We took an exclusive year-long lease on the building in 2017 for the production of our series Big Dogs,” says Crockett Moore. “At the end of that production, as our lease was coming to an end, the owners asked us to consider staying on as managers of the facility. We signed a contract for a two-year trial term, and everything went so well, we just extended our contract for another three-plus years.” By ‘everything’ she means the string of projects they shepherded on Umbra stages like Here Today with Billy Crystal, Mob Town with David Arquette, The Winter House with Lili Taylor, and their biggest production to date, I Know This Much is True starring Mark Ruffalo, as identical twin brothers in a six-episode series for HBO that made Umbra its production headquarters for seven months last year.

“When we were looking for a space that could accommodate our complex and ever-evolving shoot in the Hudson Valley, Umbra really fit the bill,” said Gregg Fienberg, Executive Producer on I Know This Much Is True. “It was a pleasant surprise to find a large stage space of such professional quality and so close to our other filming locations in the area. And the staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful at every turn.”

Improvements implemented under Choice Films’ tenure include: a high-speed Wi-Fi infrastructure upgrade that allows for a fully secured private VPN for post-production/dailies; 3,500 square feet of additional, fully furnished office space (for a total of 7,500 square feet); dual editing stations (AVID or PREMIERE); wardrobe and commercial laundry suites; redesigns of the catering areas, dressing rooms and showers; and scenic shop upgrades with 6,000 square feet of dedicated scenic, construction and storage areas.

In 2019, The Hudson Valley Film Commission reported they assisted 25 productions with an estimated $46 million in direct regional spending, a 55% increase over 2018. Keeping pace with that growth means providing local skilled crew as well as great facilities. Umbra Stages and Choice Films have partnered with the City and Town of Newburgh, Orange County Film + Tourism Office and the Blacc Vanilla Community Foundation for an at-risk youth training program, Below the Line Bootcamp. To-date, three sessions of #BTLBootcamp have trained more than 30 graduates with 70% of those now working in the field on film sets. Choice Films partners with several regional Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) and local high schools to take on interns during the year, training them for a variety of production jobs.

Umbra already has seven feature projects on the slate for this year (coming from California, Ohio and New York City) as well as holds for potential major TV projects they hope to secure. In mid-March Umbra will open another 20,000 square feet of space including a new 10,000-square-foot soundstage, a second kitchen/catering area, four new dressing rooms, and more offices and storage space. Doering also recently acquired a 45,000-square-foot building in New Windsor that is slated for two additional sound stages coming in 2020/2021, with plans for potential further expansion.

In addition to managing the production facility, Choice Films has a busy development roster, planning to produce three films this year and next. “And, our Big Dogs television series will be releasing world-wide this spring,” says Crockett Moore. “Season 2 is already fully written. We have high hopes for the future!”

I’ve seen ‘nun’ other like it...

The nun doll

By KEN WELBORN

Record Publisher

A couple of weeks ago, I attended the Friends of the Wilkes County Library Antiques Roadshow which was held in the Friends of the Library Meeting Room.

This has been an annual event for several years and is always interesting to attend as an exhibitor or just to look at the cool stuff. With rare exception, the things brought by are worth spending time looking at and learning about, both of which are good.

When I have something to be looked over, my major interest is to get to tell the story to the folks attending the Roadshow of how I got the piece, or its history, what makes it special, or all the above. To quote my buddy Sonny Church, "...Kenny is always looking for a fresh set of ears."

In this case today, I suppose a fresh set of eyes.

As often noted here, most of my "finds" actually find me these days. The stuff out front of The Record attracts visitors and folks with things to sell alike, and one day a guy walked in with a Davy Crockett lunch box.

I had bought a couple of things from him before, notable a nearly perfect "Flipper" lunch box, but the Davy Crockett box was in rough shape. We talked a bit and I told him I wouldn't be interested and, as he left, I walked out with him. I felt a bit guilty not buying the thing and walked all the way to his car with him and he opened the trunk.

There, on her back in a box of miscellaneous things was Mary—the doll in the picture on this page. I don't collect dolls, too many, too easy to get a piece of junk, too expensive—you name it. However, I knew if I could stand it Mary was coming in with me. I had never seen a Catholic nun doll before that day, and haven't seen one since.

I have showed this doll to anybody that has visited for the past five months and no one else has seen one either. The box of items with the doll each had a handwritten note with it as though whoever packed it up didn't expect to be around to tell about the items on their own. This note, which I have, says "Edward named this doll his "Holy Mary Doll” - He had a little Catholic friend, Timmy Higgins, who used to tell him about the nuns, etc."

I showed the doll to my Rotarian friend Rob Hicks who was raised Catholic and attended Catholic school for 12 years. Rob says the outfit is period for the 40’s era, but he had never seen a doll like this one either.

On it goes.

I know there are more of those dolls out there, but it is fun to have something that at least appears to be very rare—and to get to show it off to such a wide variety of visitors--makes the doll like the MasterCard advertising says: "Priceless."

One final note.

The guy with "Mary" and the Davy Crockett lunch box knew he had me, and he made me buy them both.

And, it was well worth it.

“It’s called ACTING, try it!”

By HEATHER DEAN

Record Reporter

If you are of a certain age, you had the opportunity to take Drama Classes at Wilkes Community College, where you could even receive an Associate in Fine Arts Degree.

Alas, the classes are no more, and two generations are growing up without the pleasure of filling their semesters learning the craft and magic of the stage: set and light design; carpentry; costuming; stage make-up (a necessity for both men and women actors) and most importantly the history of the theatre, and how to become someone else completely, regardless of your comfort level in someone else’s skin.

I knew I wanted to be involved in this magic as a wee child, from very first introduction to the world of singing and dancing your way out of the direst of circumstances- the Wizard of Oz. I was going to “Theatre or Bust” including once when I packed my bags and was off to join the circus and become a trapeze artist, at the ripe old age of 9.

I loved Broadway musicals, the costumes, and I was fascinated by the silent films. I was amazed as a teenager when my paternal grandmother pulled out a picture of her as a teenager, and told me she had a job at a theatre as the “cigarette girl”- and met big stars like Lash LaRue at the premiers. (Alfred "Lash" LaRue was a popular western motion picture star of the 1940s and 1950s. He had exceptional skill with the bullwhip and taught Harrison Ford how to use it for the Indiana Jones movies.) I loved going to the John A. Walker Center and seeing classics like Fiddler on the Roof, The King and I, The Sound of Music come to life in our little town, and I wanted to be a part of it.

I got my chance in 1993, when I had my first restaurant job at the age of 19, and Wes Martin was the bartender. He was taking said above classes to become a theatre teacher, and I was always agog when he spoke about production life. He invited me to see an adaptation of the Brothers Grimm tale of Beauty and the Lonely Beast. I was hooked, and the rest as they say is history- He’s the Wilkes County High School Theatre instructor, and I am in my 26th year of being involved in local and professional theatre.

Back to the beginning… If you are of a certain age, you most likely had Dave Reynolds as your theatre instructor. If you signed up for theatre as an elective and thought it would be an easy “A” you were mistaken. Reynolds made everyone work for it, including reading up on, and writing a term paper on what was going on in NYC on the Broadway stage; Saturday sweat sessions building/painting/lighting a set; the importance of finding the “perfect” prop; how to use modern clothing to look like period costumes, going out of town to see how other theatres interpreted shows through lights and sounds and acting…the list goes on.

I say all this to say, if you had Dave as an instructor, no one was immune from being told “What are we doing here? It’s called ACTING, try it!” when we were not living up to the characters potential. The truth of the modern theatre is that it has gone a full 180 degrees. In Shakespeare’s time, men played the women roles too as it was considered unlucky for a woman to be on stage.

Juliet? A man. Bianca and Katherina? Men. Cordelia? A man.

Beatrice? A man. Lady Macbeth? Yup….you guessed it. Which is why one of the funniest lines in Midsummer Nights Dream is when the bellows mender is told to play a girl, and he says “But..I have a beard coming in” then goes on to perform in a wig and dress, with a beard.

These days we are lucky to find enough males to fill male character roles. I cannot tell you how many countless times I have played a male character, whether it was the lead role, a lover, a tyrant, a father. It’s nothing to wince over, it’s called acting. And when acting, our only concern is to bring the audience into the story, into the moment, into the lights and glitter and stage magic, and make them forget that they know us in our real day to day lives.

Stella Adler, a theatre teacher herself told her students “The word theatre comes from the Greeks. It means the seeing place. It is the place people come to see the truth about life and the social situation. The theatre is a spiritual and social X-ray of its time. The theatre was created to tell people the truth about life and the social situation.” Her students included Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro, and Harvey Keitel, some of the most famous for acting across the spectrum.

Truly, what are we on stage for if not to make everyone realize that we have space for all, and to portray every dimension of life’s diverseness? Theatre is where we go to see the truth of our world reflected through another’s eyes. “No theater could sanely flourish until there was an umbilical connection between what was happening on the stage and what was happening in the world,” said Kenneth Tynan.

So, if you have ever been upset with what a stage theatre presents, or come out of a production feeling uncomfortable, GOOD. That means we have lived up to our potential and done our job as actors.

That does not mean we are “reprobates, perverts and going to hell,” that means we have done our duty to represent every aspect of life and those who live it. Having found something offensive does not warrant a boycott of your local community theatre, threats across social media, and intimidating handwritten notes left on individual’s personal property. If you don’t approve, don’t go. “It’s called ACTING!”

No one ever said theatre was where we go to hide from current events, hot button topics or celebrating diversity in our community, but it has been said: “The theatre is traditionally where people go to hear the truth.” -David Mamet

By right and by fight, the land belongs to Israel

By Ambassador EARL COX and KATHLEEN COX

How can anyone think otherwise except they believe the fake news? Gone are the days of investigative journalists digging for facts and sharing them without interjecting their personal philosophies or political beliefs. A half-truth is a lie, and a lie told frequently eventually becomes the truth.

I have witnessed how the media can change history. Decades ago, an underwater archeologist who is my friend, discovered the remains of a now-famous Civil War submarine, but he never received recognition. He followed protocol and filed the necessary documents with federal, state and local governments however, he never contacted the media. Years later a well-known author and deep-sea diver used my friend’s research and coordinates on file with the government, and went about the business of “discovering” (RE-discovering), this same sunken sub. Upon reaching the site, the media were immediately contacted and thereby received all the glory and fame. Although my friend presented solid evidence as being the rightful founder, he could not afford the cost of a legal battle to set the record straight. Except for a few who remember and a government file full of documents, the truth has been buried and forgotten.

This is the same tactic the Palestinians are using in rewriting Israel’s historic connection to the land. Our job, as Christians and as people who value truth, is to learn to separate fact from fiction.

The Palestinians claim ownership of the land they currently occupy, in addition to the land of Israel, based on a mythical connection they claim dates back 5000 years. This is false. So, who are the Palestinians? The truth is, there are no Palestinians. They are all Arabs.

The term “Palestine” was first used by the Roman Emperor Hadrian during his reign of the region. Hadrian hated Jews. He massacred many living in Judea and sent the rest into exile. He then began to erase any Jewish connection to the land despite archeological anchors. Hadrian renamed the area Syria-Palaestina to humiliate the Jews. The term “Palaestina” comes from Israel’s most ancient enemies, the Philistines.

Over the centuries the area of Judea and Samaria was ruled by many foreign powers ending with the Ottoman Empire at the conclusion of WWI. During Ottoman rule, the term “Palestine” was used to describe a general geographic area south of Syria between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River - not a specific place or people.

Following WWI, the Ottomans relinquished control of the region to the Allied Forces which decided to divide the area into countries. During this time, British Foreign Secretary Lord Balfour recognized the historical connection of the Jewish people to their homeland and earmarked an area of land for the Jewish people equal to about a half of one percent of the entire Middle East and it included Judea and Samaria.

The League of Nations, predecessor to the United Nations, granted powers to the victors of WWI to control the Middle East mandating them to prepare the local people to live and govern themselves independently. These areas came under the British Mandate of Palestine. Jews and Arabs were under British Administration, “until such time as they are able to stand alone.”

How did Israel come to possess the area known today as the West Bank and why do so many call it “occupied” territory?

On the day Israel became a nation in 1948 she was attacked by her Arab neighbors. Jordan took advantage of the turmoil and moved in claiming the West Bank without any legal justification. In doing so, the area known as Judea and Samaria became known as the West Bank (the land on the “west bank” of the Jordan River). In 1967, Israel was again attacked by her Arab neighbors in what became known as the Six Day War. Israel captured the West Bank from Jordan and the Gaza Strip from Egypt. For Israel, this was a war of self-defense. Those who attacked Israel did so with the intention of destroying the newborn nation and, according to international law, destroying countries is illegal. Miraculously, those who attacked Israel found themselves on the losing side, so they ran for help to the United Nations. The U.N. refused to label Israel as the aggressor however they did call for a negotiated solution – one that would leave Israel with defensible borders.

So, are Israel’s West Bank settlements illegal? If you believe the “fake news” narrative of today, then you believe that “Israel attacked her Arab neighbors, captured the West Bank, threw out the Palestinians and began building illegal settlements.” It’s worth repeating - never was there an Arab nation or state named Palestine therefore there are no “Palestinian” people. They are Arabs, plain and simple. They speak Arabic. Their culture is Arabic. Their history is Arabic. They are descendants of Arabs. There is nothing that uniquely distinguishes them from the greater Arab world. By right and by fight, Israel owns the West Bank yet the media and others continually refer to the area as “occupied territory.” At best, the land should be referred to as “disputed” territory. In the 20th century, Israel’s claim to the land was recognized by the leaders of the International Court of Justice. Therefore, Israel’s settlements in the West Bank are not illegal.

While there is no easy solution, any peace deal must be based on legal and historical facts. Truth, based on facts, must prevail.

Ducks, Home Remedies and Powerful Music

By CARL WHITE

Life in the Carolinas

August is an interesting month.

The weather in the south is warming to get us ready for summer. Sweet magnolias perfume the morning air and stimulate thoughts of days gone by when visits on the front porch and lingering conversations were how folks spent their causal time.

I chuckle just a bit as I recall a few of the more colorful conversations I have engaged in this August.

One conversation with barber Gary was most interesting. He was recalling a story about ducks and their ability to sleep with one eye open. He asks if I knew whether or not that was true. No, I said, I have never heard that. When I left I could not stop thinking about those poor ducks who were not able to get a good night’s rest.

I find that research has at least a 50/50 chance of bringing peace to an unknown situation. So I set out to discover the truth about duck sleep.

I give thanks to Indiana State University for a study that was done in 1999 and published in “Nature.” The study suggests that some ducks do indeed protect each other when sleeping. As it turns out aquatic birds normally sleep together in a row and the ducks on the end of the row will keep the eye open which is facing away from the group. The study also showed that the ducks that were in the middle of the row tended to sleep with both eyes closed. The ducks on the end were engaging in what scientist call single-hemisphere sleep. The eye controlled by the sleeping side of the brain is closed, while the active side of the brain keeps its eye open and on guard. The good news being, that even while on guard, ducks can get some much needed sleep.

An interesting pollen induced August conversation that I had with a friend was about the making of a passed down recipe from generation to generation for a homemade cough remedy. It consisted of a good amount of white liquor, honey and horehound candy. As the story goes, after days of dealing with a nasty lingering cough that refused to leave, his wife asks him to make some of the special family medicine.

He did so, and when it was ready, he told her it was to be taken a tablespoon at a time. She said okay, and he went out to do some yard work. When he came back inside he noticed that the glass was empty and he ask if she had poured out the rest of it. She said, no, I did what you said, I sipped it all, a tablespoon at a time.

He said in about 20 minutes the phone rang and she jumped up to answer with a spirited “Howdy Do.” I was told that this was not her normal way of answering the phone, and the word soon spread, and over the next few hours family members called just to hear her highly energetic, all be it temporary zeal for life. The good news is, she didn’t cough any more that night, and she slept well.

There are several music festivals in the Carolinas in August, so it’s a good time to think about Music. I was setting at my desk one day and I heard producer Jared exclaim, the right music makes all the difference. He was searching for the perfect music for a scene he was working on. This is a never ending task in telling stories on the screen.

I had been listing to some work by composer and Steinway Master, Chad Lawson. His music is among a selection I listen to when I am writing. It seems to stimulate creative thoughts. I’m not sure if the music brings creativity or it relaxes me so that creativity can show up. In either case, music is involved. Sometimes it’s a recording and sometimes it’s the sounds of nature.

I called Chad, to get his thoughts on the matter, and he said; “It’s somewhat mystifying to me as a composer, I learned to not rush it and let it take root. Don’t over analyze it…accept it for what it is.”

I love talking with Chad about music, he always makes it sound so amazing.

The eighth month is a good time to reflect on the mysteries of nature, family cures and the power of a musical encounter.
