LIberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. Or are we now indoctrinated into the doctrine of The Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life (the subtitle of Darwin’s Origin of Species)?

Where in the survival of the fittest is an explanation for people all being equal? Only if there is a Creator does equality make sense. Are we still accountable to that Creator for our actions as individuals and as a nation or have we become our own final authority over life and death, morality and immorality? Does Life still come from God who “formed me in my mother’s womb” (Psalm 139) and are we “fearfully and wonderfully made” or are we just an accident of billions of mutations (mistakes in the transmission of genetic information) over billions of years? Is athe marriage of a man and woman still sacred or have we come to

accept any form of sexual expression as normal and healthy (as long as we get our vaccines against the 50+STD;s)? Is there a judgment day to come when we will all be held accuntable to our Creator or is every evil permissible if we don’t get caught (for example 200,000 muders have gone unsolved in the last 50 years)? If death is the final end, there is no final justice. Yet the Bible states, “It is appointed unto men once to die, but after

this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).

America is getting it wrong and teaching the children the same. The Bible’s answer is to individually repent and receive a new life and forgiveness through

Jesus Christ who died to pay the penalty for our sins and rose again from the dead.

Celebrate our nation’s idependence and receive the freedom of spirit that only Jesus gives.

Testimonials: (Looking for some new comments of success)

Fall 1991 and January 1992 Testimonials: My cousin and his new wife (both in their early 40’s) were visiting my mom, my sister, and I. My sister asks, “So, how did you meet?” They kind of giggled and asked each other, “Should we tell them?” They said they met through the LYBL column. My sister and I decided we would try our fare at meeting “Mr. Right”. (BTW, my cousin and his wife are still married and hopelessly in love.) My sister didn’t have much luck, but in January 1992, I saw this ad that kept drawing my attention. As described, he really wasn’t what I was looking for, but...

We met later that month for the first time; got engaged in 1993 and married in 1994. We will celebrate our 25th anniversary this October and we have a 23-year-old daughter who lives out of state. Thank you, LYBL! Mr. & Mrs. J.N. 4/4/17 Testimonial: I placed an ad 1/2/94 and met the love of my life. He has 3 boys and I have 3 girls. We were married 8/26/95 and now we’re the Brady Bunch.

6 Budget−Friendly Tips to Create a Cozy Outdoor Oasis VALLEY AUCTIONS without leaving a residue. Nano-Grab will keep your lights secure and in place and make it easy to take them down and store for winter.

3. If you are sticking with the rest and relaxation vibe in your outdoor oasis, think about adding a fountain or other small water feature for relaxing background noise. Keep that sense of zen going into the night with a fire pit, heaters or bamboo torches for warmth on cooler evenings.

4. For those interested in entertaining guests, you may want to mount an outdoor TV for watching summer ball games or a sound system for listening to background music. You’ll want to ensure this equipment is properly installed for outdoor use in areas safe from wind and rain.

5. Creating an outdoor dining area doesn’t have to break the bank. When entertaining guests, a beverage cooler, bar cart and BBQ station are convenient additions you can make to what already exists on your patio. Building a cart or station for storing paper towels, tin foil and other essentials for the grill master can be a fun DIY project, too.

6. Having an amazing space doesn’t always mean starting from scratch – you can simply add a fresh coat of paint in a bright color palette to update existing privacy walls or tables and chairs.

All you need is a can of

paint and a roll of FrogTape brand painter’s tape to keep lines crisp and clean. As for color, you may be tempted to keep it neutral, but don’t shy away from crisp blues and soft yellows. They will give a fresh and fun feel for all your summer entertaining.

For additional tips and uses for Nano-Grab, visit duckbrand.com.

With just a few simple tweaks, you can transform any outdoor area into a beautiful oasis ideal for rest, relaxation and fun.

VALLEY HEALTH

(c) Jamie Hooper / Shutterstock.com (StatePoint) With life returning to normal and summer upon us, it’s a good time to focus on creating an outdoor space to enjoy on warm summer evenings.

Whether it’s a place for unplugging and relaxing alone or gathering with guests and entertaining, having a spot that you can enjoy well into the fall is key. Below are six tips for turning an average patio, porch or deck into an outdoor oasis.

1. Whether you use your outdoor space for reading a book on a summer day or catching up with friends on a warm night, incorporating plants into this area can create a barrier for privacy. Plant bushes, place large planters in corners or put hanging baskets on hooks around the perimeter. For small patios, you may even consider building a planter wall. Not only will it help with privacy, but it will also add color and dimension, making the space feel like a sanctuary for you and your guests.

2. Add string lights overhead to create ambiance in your space at night. Duck Max Strength Nano-Grab is a versatile double-sided tape you can use for mounting. It’s clear, holds up to 20 pounds per 5-foot roll and sticks to painted drywall, wood, glass, tile, metal, stone and brick

5 Surprising Ways Clean Technology is Improving Daily Life

(c) RossHelen / iStock via Getty Images Plus (StatePoint) Climate-related crises like rising sea levels, severe weather events and longer drought seasons are challenging the global economy. They’re also driving the launch of new clean technologies.

Here are five examples of how these new technologies are changing and improving daily life: 1. Making clean energy easier to access: With the renewable energy sector experiencing tremendous growth, solar energy is becoming a more affordable solution for Americans who were previously left out of the solar revolution. Projects like the Tribal Solar Accelerator Fund are putting solar on homes and tribal buildings in rural parts of Indian Country to reduce energy costs and advance Energy Sovereignty.

2. Creating new jobs when they’re needed most.

In addition to cleaner air and reducing carbon, the renewable energy sector is creating thousands of clean energy jobs in communities across the U.S. 3. Improving buildings like hospitals, schools and offices. With commercial buildings accounting for about 40% of all electricity use in the U.S., and heightened concern around safety and indoor air quality, the founders of startup 75F are using internet-of-things-powered building management systems and cloud-based software to improve heating and cooling efficiencies, maintain occupant comfort and improve air quality in commercial buildings.

4. Helping farmers become more productive and resilient. Agriculture currently accounts for 70% of the world’s water usage and 14% of its energy usage. Startup Pluton Biosciences is using microbes to help identify and address soil imbalances and diseases before they become a larger problem on particular parcels of land.

SUDUKO

This is helping farmers remain productive and efficient in the face of unpredictable weather patterns, pollution and crop infestations. The company CoverCress is working on a new cash crop for the Midwest that farmers can plant during winter months in between corn and soybean seasons. The crop sequesters carbon and can be harvested as a low-carbon feed for livestock.

5. Boosting affordable housing inventory so more people can find homes.

Construction technologies like Blokable’s prefabricated building system are addressing the housing affordability crisis by creating multifamily housing units that are highly efficient, drastically reducing the volume of construction waste.

Programs like the Wells Fargo Innovation Incubator, which works with the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, are investing in new clean energy startups, helping them bring game-changing climate solutions to market.

Experts say that such investments will be critical in the years to come.

“Continued investment in startups and

entrepreneurs focused on low-carbon solutions will help build a stronger global economy and more resilient communities, and help avoid the worst impacts of climate change,” says Ramsay Huntley, sustainable finance strategist at Wells Fargo. *****

Ask a Lawyer: Do I Still Owe My Landlord for COVID-19 Back Rent?

(c) AndreyPopov / iStock via Getty Images Plu (StatePoint) As life begins to return to normal, those who suffered financial problems during the COVID-19 pandemic will need to address them, including renters.

Lawyers at JustAnswer, the leading online provider of expert advice, recently answered some common tenant questions.

Question: We currently owe past rent because COVID-19 affected our income. We didn’t receive any stimulus money yet. We were just approved for a new apartment and plan to move. In our building we were protected under the eviction moratorium. The manager said anything we haven’t paid would go to collections. If this isn’t paid before we move out, would this affect our new apartment when we sign the new lease? –Jesse R. Lawyer: You are responsible for the past due rent once the moratorium ends. What will happen is the current landlord will file for eviction against you, even if you have vacated the property. An eviction is not just removal of a tenant, but also the lawsuit a landlord files to obtain a monetary judgment against a former tenant for unpaid rent. If you do not pay your unpaid rent, a monetary judgment will be issued against you.

At that point, it will be up to your new landlord as to whether

this affects honoring your new lease. It should not, unless there is a provision in the contract you signed that allows the new landlord to cancel the contract. The new apartment will not be notified. They will only find out if you tell them or if they run a background check. If you have already moved in then you will not have to move out. This could only happen if the landlord wants to cancel before you move in. In addition to the unpaid rent, you could also be ordered to pay the court filing fees and attorney’s fees.

It usually comes to a couple hundred more.

Question: Must I pay an unreasonable rent increase?

given verbally, look up your specific state’s law to see if that is the legal way to do it. The rent increase must not be done in a discriminatory or retaliatory manner. For example, if you have complained about habitability conditions to an outside organization, your landlord cannot retaliate by raising your rent.

Visit justanswer.com to get started.

As eviction moratoriums begin to lift nationwide, protect yourself by understanding your rights and responsibilities as a tenant. Affordable legal resources can help.

–Cindy H. Lawyer: In short, yes, it is within your landlord’s right to legally raise your rent. However, there are a few stipulations surrounding rent increases, and they can vary by state.

Unless otherwise stated in your lease agreement, your landlord cannot raise your rent before your lease is up. So, if you have signed a year-long lease, your landlord is only allowed to increase your rent once that period is up. On the other hand, if you have a month-to-month lease, your landlord is allowed to increase it every month, given that they provide you ample notice (usually 30 days).

If you are wondering how much a landlord can increase your rent, you might not like this answer. In many states, there is no maximum amount. This means that, unless you are in a rent-controlled city or building, your landlord can raise the rent by as much as they want per year or month, depending on your lease duration. Check your local laws to see if there is a set amount or maximum. Most states require your landlord to serve you the rent increase notice in writing. If it is

“We are at a critical moment in the COVID-19 pandemic. We have the vaccines and public health measures necessary to
