Learn What Real Socialism Is.

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com


Dear Friends,
     Although my part of the Upper Midwest-- Northern Michigan is cold and frigid and below zero degrees F., we are a hearty "breed" and just dress warmly...  no big deal.   I like where I live and the Summers are hot and beautiful!  

I am just wondering if we shall see a smooth end of the month --without some strange national disturbance or foul up in the economy...Ha!  Men usually don't care for surprises, but we like a smooth, organized, regular paycheck, etc.   But then, most smart Preppers also have special things put away for a 'rainy day.'  Wise, mature Christians also know the Bible very well and are certainly aware of what it says about the future.  If Father God and our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ have promised something BIG will happen in our lifetimes or sooner, let us embrace it!  Remember,  Titus 1:2,  that "God cannot lie."  When all the younger kids in school are glued to their Socialist books and Left-leaning Professors,  the winning group will be so happy to see all of God's promises come true, and we won't be here when the world crashes down!  And in the meantime, we shall keep busy praying and sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with all the people we can reach.   
      I also love my pastimes of light woodworking and carving special things into the wood, with a Router,  like Scriptures, etc. and making benches for my family and friends.  And we finally got our CD playing 'Boom Box' and already listened to some of  Alexander Scourby's "Voice of the Bible"    --KJV  --CD's.  The good part is that he has a Scottish way of speaking a very perfect, concise brand of English, as the listener can sit down with their own copy of the Bible and follow along!  And there we can all learn the CORRECT way to pronounce some of the more difficult names and places.  It's also very relaxing in a stress-filled-world.  

Warm Regards,
Tom  Schuckman

January 25th, 2019
One of the biggest stories -- and surprises -- of the 2016 election was the success of the Democrat presidential hopeful Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

An avowed and outspoken Socialist, Sanders was not even a Democrat before deciding to run for the party's nomination. And though we now know that the Democrat party leadership conspired with candidate Hillary Clinton to deny him the nomination, it is still astonishing to realize how close he came to winning it.

His success with Democrat Party voters, especially the younger ones, seems to signal a shift in American values and beliefs -- a shift from which it may be difficult, if not impossible, to recover.

Why do I say that?

One word: Socialism.

Garry Kasparov is a former chess world champion and perhaps the greatest chess grandmaster of all time. He is also Russian. He grew up under the oppression of the Soviet Union. He understands the practical effects of Socialism. Something Senator Sanders apparently does not.

In 2016, Kasparov wrote this on his Facebook page: "Socialism sounds great in speech soundbites and on Facebook, but please keep it there. In practice, it corrodes not only the economy but the human spirit itself, and the ambition and achievement that made modern capitalism possible and brought billions of people out of poverty. Talking about Socialism is a huge luxury, a luxury that was paid for by the successes of capitalism."

In another article, Kasparov continued his debunking of the glories of Socialism, based on his personal experience. He wrote: "A society that relies too heavily on redistributing wealth eventually runs out of wealth to redistribute." He then warned, "Once you give power to the government, it's nearly impossible to get it back, and it will be used in ways you cannot expect."

For these reasons, the word "Socialist" was anathema in American politics for decades. Even those who believed in Socialist principles adamantly denied it when confronted. All of that changed with the 2016 campaign of Bernie Sanders.

It was a little alarming to see how many college youth flocked to the Sanders campaign. That tells me that they do not understand the implications of Socialism and the impact it could have on their lives.

Of course, that's understandable. The Open Syllabus Project did a huge study and determined that Karl Marx's "Communist Manifesto" has been taught more than any other text on college campuses over the last decade.

Hitler's "Mein Kampf" and Vladimir Lenin's "What is to be Done" were also very popular classroom texts.

The Bible? The foundational book of western society? It didn't even make the list.

So if you were amused by what you saw in the run-up to the 2016 general election, or if you've been disgusted by the shocking upheaval in the Democrat Party during the 2018 elections, I have only one thing to say to you: FOCUS! Change is in the air in these United States. And it does not appear to be a good change. It is the kind of change that threatens our way of life and demands our intercession before God on behalf of our nation. And it demands our civic participation.

This week, I'm going to discuss Marxism, Socialism, and why these insidious philosophies threaten our great nation. This discussion is especially appropriate in view of the dramatic events in Venezuela this week.

I'm also going to tell you how America is rejecting our only Hope.

Please tune in for this important program and encourage your friends and family to watch, too.

Facts and Laughs.

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com]


Hello Friends,
     I think that laughter is good for the human organism and so I want to share this stuff with you.   I also want to complain less and laugh more.   

I am sure that many people in the world are very poor, and without any support at all, many would starve and freeze to death.   I can only thank one person in the Universe for saving me in many ways ---- and that person is Father God ---Yahweh, and His Son Jesus Christ.    Although the KJV Bible proves that the Father is whom he is,  a little Faith is still needed.   But reading special Books like Hebrews and Revelation are important to "flesh things out" and tamp down the logic and proof.   Praying and singing are part of our true worship of God.   

Warm Regards,
Tom  Schuckman

Brain Chenicals, Memory and Essential Oils.

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com

Dear Friends and Readers:
      As I have said on this humble Blog so many times,  I have studied healing Herbs for more than 40 years and memorized most of them well.   Just sniffing them applied to a clean handkerchief can help a person stay alert and stimulated, IMHO.   My own Mother just passed away with Dementia and Alzheimers Disease although I knew her to be a smart lady and much beloved.  Her father also died partly because he also suffered from those diseases even though he was considered a "Near-Genius" and a wealthy gentleman living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.    My friends consider me to be well educated and smart,  yet I can surely feel my mind slipping, and will be age 70, Feb. 20th, 2019!   But I read often, every day, study and also write a Blog/ Journal.  

I usually sprinkle a few drops of "Clove Oil" on my collar and sleeve of my clothing.   I just invested in 5 more other "Essential Oils" a week ago, like Lemon Grass, Rosemary, etc. to boost my memory.
    There was a time when I was young, just back from the war in Vietnam, where I wanted to erase part of my memory to stop the horrific, nightly nightmares of combat and PTSD,  but nowadays I feel that I am controlling that past experience better--- but still not forgotten.   I also feel bad for my combat brothers who lost more than me, like amputees or their very lives.   What a waste, IMHO.   They died for Freedom sake, fighting Communists --- and now the stupid. ignorant Millenials, Democrats, and Socialists are actually pushing for the same goofy mentality!!   Shame and Stupidity!  

Warm Regards,
Tommy Schuckman



This Little-Known Brain Chemical is the Reason Why Your Memory Is Losing Its Edge


January 17, 2019


It all started with minor slips you easily dismissed as "senior moments." You forgot your keys. You called someone by the wrong name. The word you were looking for was on the tip of your tongue, but you couldn't quite grasp it. You don't feel any older, but you do feel yourself changing. Researchers agree this could be a sign of something more serious.

A study published in the British Medical Journal of January 2012 has concluded that age-related cognitive decline begins much earlier than expected: by our mid-40s. Even more distressing, this decline can progress at very unpredictable rates. Scientists have identified that acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter, is responsible for forming new connections and strengthening neural pathways in the brain. In other words, it keeps your mind sharp. However, persistently low levels of this key neurotransmitter places you at risk. Without healthy levels of acetylcholine, the brain can physically shrink; at which point, the damage can be very difficult to repair.

And yet, we all know people of advanced age who seem immune to this cognitive decline. These so-called superagers retain high mental acuity well into their later years. Scientists have determined that superagers minds' function with high levels of acetylcholine. Therefore, their minds have stronger and more numerous neural connections. This creates the ideal environment for a steel-trap memory. Unfortunately, for most of us, levels of acetylcholine decrease as we age and rapidly so after age 45.

But it's not just our age that is to blame. Like a muscle, your brain needs constant exercise to stay in shape. Modern society deprives us of essential mental exercise.

Before the written word became accessible and affordable, oral history was the only way to spread culture to younger generations. As a result, a strong memory was an essential part of everyday life. For example, ancient Greek poets would memorize and recite entire epic poems that were thousands of lines long. Because of the demands society placed on their brains, these individuals engaged in rigorous daily mental exercise. They did not have telephones, TVs, and computers distracting their attention and distorting the ways in which their brains processed information. This kind of singular focus required optimal levels of acetylcholine.

Modern technology denies crucial exercise to certain areas of our brains in two important ways, causing it to atrophy over time. We are exposed to numerous sources of stimulation which constantly disrupt our production of acetylcholine. Likewise, we no longer need to remember phone numbers, addresses, dates, or even basic navigation because our phones have replaced our memories. Both of these factors train your mind to forget and place you at risk for earlier onset of cognitive decline.

In good news, new research says you don't need to throw away your smartphone, cancel your Netflix subscription, or quit your job to turn back the clock on age-related cognitive decline. A team of researchers in a GMP-certified laboratory in New York has identified 5 compounds that can naturally restore optimal levels of acetylcholine. They are Alpha GPC, Huperzine A, Bacopa Monnieri, Lion's Mane Mushroom, and Ginkgo Biloba. Better yet, clinically-backed by scientific research, these natural compounds do not contain exotic, unproven chemicals derived from marine life.

Over the last 18 months, this research team has combined these 5 safe and powerful natural compounds to boost levels of acetylcholine into one formula. It's called RediMind, and here's how it works.*

RediMind restores optimal levels of acetylcholine, protects you from age-related cognitive decline, and strengthens neural connections in the brain. The result? You can process and store information more easily and recall it much more quickly. RediMind gives you back the steel-trap memory of a confident mind.

To test the product's effectiveness, Princeton Consumer Research performed a placebo-controlled clinical trial in which the International Shopping List test was administered at different intervals at baseline, after 2 weeks, and after 30 days. The ISLT is a standardized short-term memory test consisting of a list of random grocery items which must be memorized and reproduced within a limited time frame.

While RediMind is not guaranteed to give you a photographic memory, the study boasts some impressive results. After 2 weeks, participants taking RediMind improved their memory score by over 45%. At the conclusion of the study, memory performance increased by over 51% and significantly outpaced placebo.†

RediMind is vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free, and is made in a GMP-certified facility in New York to ensure the highest standards of safety. The entire RediMind compound fits into one pill with low-dosage, high-efficiency ingredients for maximum effectiveness. Taken daily, RediMind improves confidence in relying your memory, as over 85% of study participants experienced. And unlike a shot of espresso, it does not give you a temporary boost followed by an energy crash. RediMind does not contain any caffeine, making it safe for long-term daily use.
