The Terror That Comes In The Night
Jamie knew that it would happen again tonight. It always did when she felt this way. She had worked a double at the hospital, the children were at her mother's and her husband was out of town for his job. Every time she was overworked, alone, and had underslept she could count on the terror in the night. She took a shower, turned on the television and went to bed with the table lamp on. As always, she was just dozing off, and was somewhere in between sleep and waking when it began. She heard the voices in her head, like fragments of conversations in whispers, There was a buzzing noise but at the same time, she could hear the television show that was on.

'The Young and the Restless' fans are concerned regarding the fate of Faith Newman
Fans of The Young and the Restless became alarmed after Thursday's episode of the CBS daytime drama. On Twitter and Facebook groups it seems that many are thinking the same thing. No one wants to see Alyvia Lind's character Faith Newman end up kidnapped, pregnant or dead. In real-time, a teen who is dealing with all that the Newmans have thrown at Faith possibly would be suicidal. In reel-time however, it's not certain where this storyline is headed. Viewers are concerned for the fate of the teen and are crying out to the writers: "Don't do it."

The House that dripped blood
The house sat alone on a hillside, as those types of homes typically do. No one had lived in it for years and the grass and brush were growing up around it. Jaeden was only 9 years old when "it" happened and 8 years later she still remembered it pretty well. She recalled seeing the police and ambulance crews surrounding the house and the flashing lights that were blinding. All the neighbors had walked blocks to where the situation occurred and had stood talking about it. Apparently, a woman named Debra Jackson had been shot and killed in her upstairs bedroom. The rumor was she owed a drug dealer a lot of money and he killed her to make a point. Whatever the cause she had been shot in that house and they say died instantly.

Rare Full Hunters Blue Moon On October 31
The term “ Blue Moon” probably elicits images like the one in the cover photo. A breathtaking moon with a blue hue, illuminating a shimmering deep blue sea on a cloudless night. In actuality, a blue moon is not really blue at all. Perhaps, however, in some skies, it may possibly appear that way. In reality, a blue moon is simply the second full moon that occurs in a month. Most times there is only one full moon each month, but not always. NASA reports that this rare occurrence takes place roughly every 2 and 1/2 years. A hunters moon is the full moon in October when the game is fattened and preparations are made for the coming winter.

Future Change Begins Today With The Power Of The Pen
Reading is fundamental and Americans need to be reading everything they can and gain a detailed understanding of truths about those we elect to public office. Journalists should be fair and balanced and not biased in what they write. I voted early this year and I am already working on a plan that will make a difference beyond my vote. I have determined to write credible articles that inform the reader factually about what is going on in the nation. I will give accurate information about voting rights, political candidates, and incumbents year-round. This includes local, state, and national governments.

Don't Panic Be Proactive
Everywhere we turn, Dr. Anthony Fauci or some other expert is warning that COVID-19 will make this cold and flu season much worse. If you have been blessed thus far not to have contracted this coronavirus, there are things you can do to decrease the likelihood that you will. The first thing to do is to be realistic about this pandemic. It has claimed the lives of 210,000 Americans to date. That is a staggering sobering number of people. My deepest sympathies to all who have buried loved ones because of this disease. I was shocked when President Donald Trump bragged that he was "cured" and immune. I thought this to be a slap in the face to everyone who has or is struggling with the symptoms, or side effects of this disease.

Clowns used to be fun as well as funny. They delighted generations of children who loved them and looked forward to seeing them at the circus. In the cartoon Dumbo, (1941) the clowns were hilarious, playing jokes on each other and making the audience laugh. One was standing on the top of a firetruck ladder roasting a hot dog in the flames from a fire that his pals were down below trying to put out.
