“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.” (Thomas Jefferson, attributed)

“It is a capital mistake to theorise before you have all the evidence. It biases the judgment.” (Sherlock Holmes: “A Study in Scarlet,” by Arthur Conan Doyle)

"It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts." Sherlock Holmes Quote -A Scandal in Bohemia

“How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?” (Sherlock Holmes: “The Sign of Four,” 1890, Chap. 6, p. 111, by Arthur Conan Doyle)

“Eliminate all other factors, and the one which remains must be the truth.” (Sherlock Holmes: “The Sign of Four,” 1890, Chap. 1, p. 92, by Arthur Conan Doyle)

"How, then, did you deduce the telegram?"

"Why, of course I knew that you had not written a letter, since I sat opposite to you all morning. I see also in your open desk there that you have a sheet of stamps and a thick bundle of postcards. What could you go into the post-office for, then, but to send a wire? Eliminate all other factors, and the one which remains must be the truth."

“"How came he, then?" I reiterated. "The door is locked; the window is inaccessible. Was it through the chimney?"

"The grate is much too small," he answered. "I had already considered that possibility."

"How, then?" I persisted.

"You will not apply my precept," he said, shaking his head. "How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth? We know that he did not come through the door, the window, or the chimney. We also know that he could not have been concealed in the room, as there is no concealment possible. When, then, did he come?"

"He came through the hole in the roof!" I cried.

"Of course he did. He must have done so. If you will have the kindness to hold the lamp for me, we shall now extend our researches to the room above -- the secret room in which the treasure was found."” (“The Sign of Four,”(1890) by Arthur Conan Doyle: Chapter 6 - Sherlock Holmes Gives a Demonstration) http://literature.org/authors/doyle-arthur-conan/sign-of-four/chapter-06.html

“"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered...I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."”

“The first part of the quotation ("If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered") has not been found anywhere in Thomas Jefferson's writings, to Albert Gallatin or otherwise. It is identified in Respectfully Quoted as spurious, and the editor further points out that the words "inflation" and "deflation" are not documented until after Jefferson's lifetime.

The second part of the quotation ("I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies...") may well be a paraphrase of a statement Jefferson made in a letter to John Taylor in 1816. He wrote, "And I sincerely believe, with you, that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies; and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale."

The third part of this quotation ("The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs") may be a misquotation of Jefferson's comment to John Wayles Eppes, "Bank-paper must be suppressed, and the circulating medium must be restored to the nation to whom it belongs."” [Internal citations removed]

"First, they [Nazis] came for the Jews. I was silent. I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists. I was silent. I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists. I was silent. I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me. There was no one left to speak for me."(Martin Niemöller, given credit for a quotation in The Harper Religious and Inspirational Quotation Companion, ed.

Fornier,Copyright 1993, by Liberty, Life, and Family Publications.
Some versions have Mr. Niemöller saying: "Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up, because I was a Protestant"; other versions have him saying that they came for Socialists, Industrialists, schools, the press,and/or the Church; however, it's certain he DID say SOMETHING like this. Actually, they may not have come for the Jews first, as it's more likely they came for the prisoners, mentally handicapped, &other so-called "inferiors" first -as historians tell us-so they could get "practiced up"; however, they did come for them -due to the silence of their neighbors -and due in part to their own silence.

(Wed. 13 Apr. 2016, BREAKING) Higher Education ; Politics ; Congress * Brave Republican Congressman breaks with party, admits college loans deserve bankruptcy * The Register has documented this candid & brave admission. U.S. Rep. Dennis A. Ross, of Lakeland, Fla., bravely admits that college students deserve bankruptcy safety-net, like all other loans afford, and also affirms the small-government view that we need to “get The Government out of the business of loaning the money,” but has yet to introduce or cosponsor legislation to address either problem. Click here for details and sources to verify & document our claims. When Universities see subsidies, they increase tuition simply to pay for million-dollar salaries. This costs students (skyrocketing tuition) and taxpayers (who back these loans). Because of that, The Register hopes Ross will end these subsidies, to put a stop to soaring tuition and resulting record College Debt. Ross, representing Florida's 15th Congressional District (parts of Hillsborough & Polk counties) was once ranked the 'most conservative' Congressman by Heritage Action for America: (link 1) (link 2) (link 3) but has recently been described as "a RINO in conservative camouflage" by Conservative Review: (link 4) (link 5) (link 6) * UPDATE: The Register has notified both Rep. Ross, Sens. Nelson & Rubio, and the local news media-and has, more-recently, reprised his call for action: (.pdf file format or: web-page *.html file) See e.g., GordonWayneWattsContacts_USSenatorBillNelson.pdf for confirmation of receipt.

(Wed. 17 Feb. 2016, BREAKING) Higher Education ; Courts * Texas man arrested for not paying student loan * Yesterday, CNN reported that "A Texas man was arrested by U.S. Marshals last week for not paying his $1,500 federal student loan -- for 29 years." There were conflicting reports-with The Houston Chronicle now reporting that "US Marshals say man wasn't just arrested because he didn't pay student loans." The Register did investigative reporting to get to the bottom of this. While The Chronicle claims that the arrest wasn't just for nonpayment, but also because "A federal judge then issued a warrant for Aker's arrest for failing to appear at a Dec. 14, 2012, hearing," nonetheless, a closer review finds that Paul Aker, the recipient of the college loan "went inside to get my gun because I didn't know who these guys were," as reported by CNNMoney. Aker also told CNNMoney that he doesn't remember having a conversation with US Marshalls, who alleged they called him first. Aker further said he hasn't received any notification about the outstanding loan "in a long time." The Register supports the Rule of Law, and doesn't deny Courts may issue bench warrants for failure to appear, yet this seems, in our judgment, to be extreme - even more-so in light of the Constitutional problems with the underlying loan. (See our previous coverage of the Constitutional challenge to these laws, in our Sun. 14 Feb. 2016, UPDATES, below.)

FYI: My friend and I are both against 'Same Sex Marriage,' and we both agree that, on average, gay adoptions are not as good as 'traditional,' 1-man-1-woman marriage parenting or adoption; however, support for an "outright ban" on 'Gay Adoptions' is very bad for no less than three (3) reasons outlined in my response to him, here. Let me go on record and state: if we, conservatives, lose our fight against 'Same Sex Marriage,' it will be for reasons like this needless distraction (and/or for 'rich' conservatives refusing to help 'poor' conservatives like myself file Amici briefs at the nation's high court when the rules required the filer to be a lawyer), and I say we would deserve to lose. ~Gordon W.

Case docs & court's docket links beneath Lady Justice below, on the right. (Tue. 24 March 2015) News Updates: Watts' case set for review Fri. Mar. 27 before High Court - Today, The U.S. Supreme Court docketed a 2nd Supplemental Brief in the case of Register editor, Gordon Watts, who, previously, lost a 4-3 decision in State Court in his bid to save Terri Schiavo. Watts is asking the High Court for permission to file an Amicus Curiae (friend of the court) brief in several high-profile gay marriage cases, as reported previously by The Register. Case Documents can be downloaded beneath the 'Lady Justice' icon, on the right. Watts is alleging, in his filing, that both sides have overlooked an obvious, and "workable" solution that will grant relief both to the "traditional" marriage advocates, who wish to keep the definition of marriage the same, as well as showing 'Gay Rights' advocates solutions that have been used in the past which did not require the definition of marriage to be altered or changed. (Tue. 24 March 2015) Commentary: Supreme Court rule which, in essence, says that "money can buy access to the courts," is 'bad' rule - Since RULE 37.3(a) of the US Supreme Court permits that: "An amicus curiae brief in a case before the Court for oral argument may be filed if accompanied by the written consent of all parties...," then Watts' brief would normally be "automatically accepted": as noted on The Court's Official Docket, "Consent to the filing of amicus curiae briefs, in support of either party or of neither party" was filed with the court by both petitioners and respondents in one case. [["A petitioner or respondent may submit to the Clerk a letter granting blanket consent to amicus curiae briefs, stating that the party consents to the filing of amicus curiae briefs in support of either or of neither party. The Clerk will note all notices of blanket consent on the docket.": RULE 37.2(a)]] However, unlike the appeals court, which permitted Watts to file an amicus brief, RULE 37.1 of the US Supreme Court does not allow non-attorneys to file such briefs: "An amicus curiae brief may be filed only by an attorney admitted to practice before this Court as provided in Rule 5." In plain English, an ax-murderer can represent himself pro se, acting as his own attorney, but when filing in someone else's case, The Supreme Court, unlike many other courts, requires you to have a lawyer who is a member of the US Supreme Court bar. The rule prohibiting "non-lawyers" from filing briefs in other peoples' cases has been around for many decades, and is not unlike the recent rule change prohibiting "non-lawyers" from oral arguments before the High Court. (In SEC v Sloan, 436 U.S. 103, non-lawyer Samuel H. Sloan had oral arguments before the high court, and successfully argued that the SEC, in issuing successive 10-day suspensions, abused its power, and Sloan won 9-0. That 1978 case was the last time a "non-lawyer" orally argued before the high court.) Many people, including the court's own justices, have said that people have "no" automatic right of review by the Supreme Court, but, as shown above, that is not true in all cases. However, what about the case where a person wants to file a 'friend of the court' brief, as Watts has been allowed to do, but you simply can't afford a lawyer who is a member of the Supreme Court bar? The only thing stopping Watts from filing was the fact that he couldn't afford to "buy access" through a highly-money lawyer. (The fact that he took hard shots at both pro- and anti- gay advocates did not help his chances at finding a lawyer willing to file for him; nor, did it help that Watts is not in the "in crowd" of high rank and status "insiders.") The only lawyer who was receptive to Watts' pleas for help asked $50,000.oo to file, obviously over-priced, and outside most peoples' range. The court did not find any fault with Watts' brief, and, in fact, actually docketed it in error for a short period of time. It's a mystery why no one has challenged this long-time rule (or perhaps they did, and the press didn't report on it?), but Watts speculates that it's obvious why no one has bothered to challenge RULE 37.3(a): Watts deduces that most people unable to afford an attorney to file are also too poor to get proper skills to fight an unjust rule, such as this. But, in the end, it matters not "how long" a rule's been around: just like slavery and womens' suffrage were permitted to carry on for some time, likewise Rule 37.3(a) has been permitted to "keep out" anyone unable to afford an attorney. For this reason, The Register confidently opines that this rule has only one purpose: to ensure that "money buys access" to the high court. No other explanation is adequate: indeed, even Federal Appeals courts, just one notch below the high court, permit this sort of thing, so what's the high court's problem? It is hoped that The Justices will see the wisdom in updating and revising outdated and antiquated rules that "send the wrong message": Money can buy access to The Court. Moreover, as Sloan has demonstrated, above, sometimes a "non-lawyer" can be very helpful to the court. That is why Watts' Amicus brief is necessary: "Rule 37. Brief for an Amicus Curiae 1. An amicus curiae brief that brings to the attention of the Court relevant matter not already brought to its attention by the parties may be of considerable help to the Court." The Register thinks we should lighten up and try to get along, and to that end: COURT HUMOUR (Irreverent, but clean) (Thr. 05 March 2015) BREAKING: U.S. Supreme Court issues odd ruling in case of Register editor, Gordon Watts, who, previously, lost a 4-3 decision in State Court in his bid to save Terri Schiavo. On Sat. 02-28-2045, two days after Watts' 02-26 call to Merit's Clerk, Erik Fossum, in the news item below, he received this box from the court addressed to him containing some filings and a letter, which included his January Amicus brief, the required Certificate of Compliance, all of his February filings, including the required motions, and a copy of the Court Rules. The letter from the clerk alleged that both petitions were being returned because, among other things, they needed to specify the type of relief being sought, needed a proper affidavit of indigency, and a “copy of the corrected petition must be served on opposing counsel,” along with a Certificate of Service. Veteran court observers were baffled by the odd response from The Court, since both the January and February filings, in the news items below, clearly specified the relief sought (namely ability to file an amicus pro se, without needing an attorney), the latter included an In Forma Pauperis declaration, which included the required affidavit of indigency, as the rules require, and one of them even served the other parties. While early speculations included fears that The Court and clerks were merely trying to stonewall and delay Watts' filing or deny him Due Process, The Register notes that this seems unlikely in light of the fact that Clerk Fossum could easily have continued to delay his response to Watts, thereby allowing the time-deadlines to pass for the four consolidated 'Gay Marriage' cases for which Watts is attempting for file an Amicus Curiae (Friend of the Court) brief. It is speculated (but not known) that The Clerks faulted his January petition for placing the motion to file in the brief, instead of as a separate filing, and the February petition for failing to serve other parties, which Watts did not do, based on the fact that RULE 20.4(b) of The U.S. Supreme Court states that “Habeas corpus proceedings, except in capital cases, are ex parte, unless the Court requires the respondent to show cause why the petition for a writ of habeas corpus should not be granted,” thereby obviating the need to serve other parties. In spite of the fact that Watts did not need to serve the other parties, as Rule 20.4(b) implies, he made another attempt to file a Petition for the Extraordinary Writ of Habeas Corpus, along with the required paperwork to proceed as indigent, due to the huge financial costs of his prior filings -and he refiled an updated version of his proposed brief: UPDATED Amicus brief: Mar.01,2015 (Word Doc) * UPDATED Amicus brief: Mar.01,2015 (PDF) * Veteran court observers do not know how The Court will react to Watts' request to become the first person in the court's history to file a Friend of the Court brief without the aid of an attorney, as the current RULE 37.1 requires, especially in light of the fact that Watts' prior filings seemed to comply with the rules, and in light of the apparent discrepancy between the Court's Feb. 19 time-stamp and the actual delivery date of Feb. 18. Friday 06 Mar. 2015 UPDATE: The hoard of Watts' Amicus briefs, with the required paperwork that was prepared on Wed. 04 Mar. 2015 at the local FedEx Office centre, was shipped that morning at 9:45am and delivered today to the Court, and signed for by an 'I.BENNETT' at 2:04pm today, 4 minutes past the 2PM deadline for Amicus briefs supporting neither side, and thus late, unless the 'end of day' is used to time-stamp the filings. The Register believes that these filings will not be counted late because RULE 29.2 of the Court allows that: "A document is timely filed...if it is delivered on or before the last day for filing to a third-party commercial carrier for delivery to the Clerk within 3 calendar days," which it was. The Register also notes that the filing should, legally, actually be time-stamped with the February date, because of RULE 14.5, which permits that the petition would be deemed timely, and thus not late: "If the Clerk determines that a petition submitted timely and in good faith is in a form that does not comply with this Rule or with Rule 33 or Rule 34, the Clerk will return it with a letter indicating the deficiency. A corrected petition submitted in accordance with Rule 29.2 no more than 60 days after the date of the Clerk’s letter will be deemed timely." The petition for The Extraordinary Writ of Habeas Corpus, which Watts filed under RULE 20.2, permits his filing to follow "the form of a petition for a writ of certiorari prescribed by Rule 14," which makes his proposed Amicus Curiae briefs timely, should the Habeas relief be granted. However, as these are very extraordinary requests in Watts' petitions, asking for a wholesale revision of RULE 37.1, which many believe unfairly restricts that "An amicus curiae brief may be filed only by an attorney admitted to practice before this Court," then these time-issues may be inconsequential in The Court's view of the larger questions at hand: Are pro se litigants unfairly denied Due Process or given 'unequal' protection, when compared with those able to afford an attorney? And, can it benefit The Court to do like many appeals courts and allow pro se non-lawyers to file potentially-helpful Amicus briefs? Monday 09 Mar. 2015 UPDATE: The U.S. Supreme Court has docketed Watts' case: In re Gordon Wayne Watts, Petitioner: No. 14-8744 Thursday 12 Mar. 2015 UPDATE: The U.S. Supreme Court's docket notes that Watts' case was "DISTRIBUTED for Conference of March 27, 2015," for review by The Justices: In re Gordon Wayne Watts, Petitioner: No. 14-8744 [Editorial Comment: They don't play: that was quite fast. No backlog or slackers here.] Friday 13 Mar. 2015 UPDATE: The U.S. Supreme Court does not forward Amicus briefs to Justices, claiming format is incorrect.

Tuesday 24 Mar. 2015 UPDATE: ...and docketed: (Court Docket) -- (Cached Screenshot)

Sat. 14 Feb. 2015 UPDATE: The U.S. Supreme Court almost accepted the Jan. 23 filings (below), and docketed Watts as a party in one case: -Docket- but quickly deleted the entry when they re-read the filing, and saw that Watts wasn't a lawyer. (Apparently, his filing was good enough to pass for that of a lawyer.) The Court eventually denied Watts' request, claiming that he didn't use proper protocol in filing an "All Writs" petition, so he refiled again (receipt) on Feb. 14, 2015, using exacting protocol: * -Motion In Forma Pauperis, etc.- * -UPDATED amicus (PDF)- * -UPDATED amicus (*.doc)- * On Thr. 26 Feb. 2015, at the suggestion of Merit's Clerk, Denise McNerney, he followed-up with a letter to the Justices and sent it Next-Day Air via both FedEx and USPS (and signed for by the same person in both cases) due to the time-sensitive nature of the issue. Now Hiring: One lawyer barred in the U.S. Supreme Court to review & file the amicus in this news item. Payment will cover printing, service, and time. Contact Gordon W. Watts, through this website to inquire. Watts' brief does not have any objectionable material, as does that of the lawyer who filed this bizarre brief; however, to follow proper protocol, prospective lawyer should proof-read to ensure that this problem does not happen. Latest Update: The Register spoke with Merit's Clerk, Erik Fossum, on Thr. 02-26-2015, who confirmed receipt of the Feb. 14 Habeas filing, linked above, but, as yet, it has not appeared in a routine docket search of the U.S. Supreme Court. UPDATE: On Fri., Jan. 23, 2015, Watts asked U.S. Supreme Court for leave to file an amicus pro se in the 'Gay Marriage' cases currently being reviewed from our sister circuit, the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which are consolidated from 4 appeals originating from Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Tennessee: * -Brief- - * -Certificates of Compliance- * -Signed Certificates- (large file size) *

DONATE: Due to mounting costs associated with printing and service (mailing) of the many court items, here, I'm experimenting with a Donation Button. CAVEAT: Any donations will not be tax-deductible, and, until I have time to post a strict accounting of my costs incurred, you will just have to take my word for this. I am not sure, but I estimate I have spent almost $3,000.oo in court costs alone, litigating in all 3 levels of court: District, Circuit Court of Appeals, and U.S. Supreme Court-in an attempt to be a 'Good Samaritan' and work out a solution that will satisfy both 'traditional marriage' conservatives (such as myself) and liberal 'Gay Rights' activists (who do have some legitimate and genuine grievances).

UPDATE: In Jan. 06, 2015 Order of The Court, Watts' motion for leave to file an amended amicus curiae brief - replacing his timely 11/21/2014 brief on docket - was GRANTED. Original Release: Sun. 30 Nov. 2014 / Updated: Wed. 07 Jan. 2015 BREAKING - FLA GAY MARRIAGE: The Florida Law, which defines "marriage" as '1 man and 1 woman,' and which was passed by voters in 2008 by an addition to the State Constitution, by almost a 62% supermajority vote, was invalidated by a Federal Judge in North Florida this past August. Register Editor, Gordon W. Watts, who, several years ago, lost a 4-3 split decision on behalf of Theresa 'Terri' Schiavo, has been allowed to file an Amicus Curiae brief in the high-profile "Florida Gay Marriage" case, currently being appealed in the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in Atlanta, GA. Watts, a nonlawyer, whose only college training is in the sciences (B.S., Biological/Chemical Sciences, FSU, double major with honours; A.S. Valedictorian in Electronics Technology from The United Electronics Institute) has filed papers in support of the controversial Florida Law. Watts uses a never-before-used 'Equal Protection' argument that, barring an unfair hearing, would be sufficient grounds to either uphold the Florida Law or, in the unlikely alternative, make polygamy (plural marriages) legal. For complete coverage of this issue, including Watts' filings, please see The Register's research page (link here). Court documents, technically, are available to the public -but at a charge; The Register is hosting these court filings as an 'Open Source' service for the interested public. Watts' brief, while likely sufficient to defend the Florida Law, is unique in all the Amici briefs on the state's side, insofar as it offers relief to those who claim damage from the Florida Law -without sacrificing either the definition of marriage as '1 man and 1 woman,' as is currently the law -or compromising the morals of those whose religious beliefs are in agreement with the popular Florida Law.

John Shannon's name, regarding the news item, below - as touching misconceptions on my part about his own motives: Earlier this evening, Tue. 19 Aug. 2014, I attended a debate between Ms. Burton and Mr. Shannon, and, after the debate, hosted by a local "9-12" group, I made it a point to apologise to Mr. Shannon. (Although the only thing I could think of that I might have done wrong was be a bit talkative to his secretary, when making an inquiry as to why was blocked, nonetheless, whether any of this was my fault or not, I felt it was the 'right' thing to to to apologise to him.) While I am still not sure I know what happened on his end (and while I don't know whether he 'connected' my name and face & recognised me), Mr. Shannon was good enough to accept my apology, and appeared genuinely sincere. Later, I hope to have more updates, which include some news coverage of the debate. So, when you read this account, below, please keep in mind that Mr. Shannon (and his secretaries & staff, like all of us) is human, and subject to mistakes, and please be accordingly patient with all our human limitations, mine included. --Editor-in-Chief, Gordon Wayne Watts -End of Update- Tue. 29 July 2014 - Local LAKELAND, Fla. attorney running for State House goes nutty - all caught on tape Lakeland, Fla.

Mon. 09-16-2013 - Special to The Register: Crippling debts make it difficult for graduates to achieve dreams

Mon. 06-17-2013 American Higher Education in the news There is a photo of a college professor circulating the Internet, which says the following: “I am a college professor increasingly frustrated by the incredible debt I see my students taking on. According to the University of Minnesota, in 1968 a student working 6.2 hours a week at minimum wage would have earned enough to pay annual tuition and fees of $385. That was back when education was considered a public good and not a private investment… …back when education was for the 99%.” The professor is David Davies, associate professor of anthropology at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota, and his claim is verified as true and correct, according to the Star Tribune of Minnesota, which reports the following: “In 1968-69, a student could have clocked 6.2 hours a week at minimum wage to earn enough to cover annual tuition and fees of $385, according to the U. This year, a student would have to work 33.9 hours a week at minimum wage to cover tuition and fees.” http://www.StarTribune.com/business/43647732.html?page=5&c=y see also: http://m.StarTribune.com/local/?id=132317538 and: http://www.SociologyForNerds.com/2012/03/interview-with-david-davies-professor.html Both liberals and conservatives are at fault for this mess: Liberals made loans easily available to anyone who had a pulse, and, like in the infamous Housing bubble of 2010, sellers jacked up prices REAL HIGH because they knew buyers had “easy loans” available. Result: A bubble, and resultant higher prices (distorting the free market, in techie terms) Then so-called conservatives under Bush removed the bankruotcy safety net. At least the housing buyers could file bankruptcy, and this at least slowed the bubble of price-gouging. However, students, without even the most basic protections that rich Wall Street Bankers have (bankers can file bankruptcy for HUGE SUM$!), are preyed upon even more. Result: Even worse bubble. None of us on the conservative side is asking for a 'Free Handout,' but to give huge bankruptcy protections to the rich bankers -even AFTER they've gotten copious liberal 'bailouts' and corporate handouts -and yet, somehow deny poor students the same protections -is patently unfair, and, as I argue here, illegal: Education Link (click here) Gordon Wayne Watts Higher Education writer -and Editor-in-Chief, The Register

Newly Updated: When Babies Die: Where do they go? (Full-color Edition) [Kindle Edition] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: "When Babies Die: Where do they go? Heaven? Hell?" is now available at a bookstore near you: For ages, this question has baffled men and women, preacher and layman, learned and the "common man" -Joe Average citizen. Many a grieving parent has longed for solid, but true, answers, not just 'fairy-tale' assurances, lacking substance or reliability. Now, theological researcher, Gordon Wayne Watts, of Lakeland, Fla. (between Orlando & Tampa), whose main claim to fame was almost winning the landmark 'Terri Schiavo' case –all by himself –despite not being a lawyer, puts his research skills to work on this case regarding infants who die. His analysis addresses not only unborn babies who die in infancy and killed via abortion, miscarriage, stillbirth, & Early Infant Death -but also persons born with mental disabilities who subsequently die –and by extension, this may possibly include peoples who have never heard of the Gospel of Christ –such as remote tribes of the world. First off, there needs to be a distinction made with the 'proximal' fate, as opposed to the 'eternal' fate. (In other words, where the infant's soul is "for the time being" is NOT necessarily the same as his or her eternal fate, and there IS a difference.) Secondly, while most simply have assumed an "innocent" baby would go to heaven (and this is probably true -for the 'time being'), the eternal fate is a different story. While the "ending" will catch most off-guard, it is a 'good' ending, rest assured. Watts explores nine (9) different positions on this matter (listed in Chapter 1, for those who can't wait to see where he stands on the issue), and eliminates 7 of them as theologically impossible, leaving 2 possible outcomes. This is a deep subject, and the writer assumes the reader accepts the Holy Bible as authoritative (since this is the main source of the proof offered), but Watts gives this subject a deeper treatment than any other writer, to date. Sit back, grab a cup of hot cocoa or a tall, iced-cold latte, and enjoy the journey on which Mr. Watts takes the reader.

MISSING PERSON: (pic: Click here or here - Note: You can left-click in Microsoft's Internet Explorer to zoom in on pics) A young woman I’ve never met contacted me (or had me contacted) ... by DREAM messaging -over what she claimed was a very important matter. I initially thought it was a bunch of nonsense (after all, it was ‘only a dream’), but later research by the experts (links: Click here or here) revealed her claims to be altogether true. In attempting to return the message, I first tried to draw free-hand what I saw in the dream. (Pics: Click here or here) I was not so good of an artist, so, knowing some specific information from my prior research, I turned to CAD (Computer Aided Drawing) methods to draw what the young woman would probably look like at different ages.

If you have information on the whereabouts of this young woman, contact me. Any prospective claimants must pass a genetic test to verify I.D.

ABOUT:
This is the personal research page of Gordon Wayne Watts of LAKELAND, Florida. Mr. Watts' diverse research includes (but is not limited to) the following:

The webmaster, Gordon Watts, is one of the very few official "Star Trek: New Voyages" / "Star Trek: Phase II" mirror operators, in which the original 1969 'Star Trek' series is revived: See the appropriate section in the links bar, at top.

Much interesting POLITICAL news coverage: Taking aim at well-intended, but less-than-bright "conservatives" (such as Sean Hannity & staff) and even "dimmer" liberals galore. (See Political link)

Putting the research tools to use on FINANCE and ECONOMY -including a review of John Cummuta's "Turning Debt into Wealth" plan (see Finance link)

A cure for all forms of Cancer! (And, while Mr. Watts is not a doctor -and doesn't play one on TV -his research done while at FSU is FREE and effective: At least it worked for Watts.) See the Health Section.

Human Limb Regeneration, AZT, & AIDS - Separating Fact from Fiction and Urban Legend: See the Health Section.

Studying and researching what works -and what doesn't in ROMANCE: Science and Scripture agree (see the indicated section)

Deep theological research on advanced topics: How to answer a Jehovah's Witness or Mormon that knocks on your door: Careful, they're right sometimes, wrong other times. (See "Religion (Theology / Spiritual)" link.

Mr. Watts went to court (and took up petitions with people signing their real names and full contact data) to oppose former Fla. Gov. Jeb Bush regarding the invasive "feeding tube" issue in the Terri Schiavo case (Translation: You liberals reading this should "be happy") -but, ironically, Mr. Watts' court pleadings before Florida's Supreme Court almost saved Theresa Marie "Terri" Schindler-0Schiavo's life (without following a path that included feeding tubes). Since Mr. Watts did better in court in his attempt to save Terri's life (losing 4-3) than even Jeb Bush (lost 7-0) or the immediate family (lost 2-1 in Federal court), this is his main "claim to fame" and a reason his website is so highly rated. Explore the weird world of TRUTH, where Watts takes no shortcuts and gets both conservatives and liberals nervous, annoyed, and angry. ("Schiavo" section coming soon -otherwise browse the website or do a Google search.)

Religion (Theology / Spiritual):
NEW: In this section: My Testimony of how I 'got saved' (see below) -- ALSO: In this section -commentary on the recent ABC news story on 'Reincarnation' boy who said he lived a "past life" as a WWII pilot -and 'Is the Bible true?' ~ Also: Answers to theology questions, such as "IS Jesus worthy of God's worship," and "IS JESUS the same person as Michael the Archangel?" -- Also: Angels on Assignment: A critique of the Melodyland School of Theology paper by the late Dr. J. Rodman Williams, Ph.D.: (Main Link) or (Alt. Link) His wife informs me he passed away this past October. I am sorry that I could not show my proper respect by writing my reply to your paper while you were still with us. God rest your soul, Dr. Rodman, and may you be blessed in your continued activities in Heaven.

* My Testimony: How I 'got saved' (by Gordon Wayne Watts: How you can get saved too) (Main Link) ~ (Alt. Link)
* Rapture: Mid-Week, but Pre-Trib -- Dr. Chuck Hollowell, of Plant City, Florida's "Victory Baptist" church, recently preached a sermon, in which he lined up New & Old Testament passages on the timing of the rapture. The 'time line' was impossible to read until you lined up all the passages together (letting Scripture interpret Scripture), and then it seemed all but certain that the rapture would occur in the middle of Daniel's week, but before things got real ugly, in other words, before the 'Great' Tribulation. Don't take my word for it - The links below are for my sermon, based on Dr. Hollowell's sermon, in which I added Scriptures that I thought could clarify, and I used my own 'chart' formatting system for the notes:

Buck's old church, (Boise) Central Assembly, and click on either the 'Books & CD's' link or the 'Contact' link to make your requests known. I apologise for any inconvenience here. On my honour, this mistake was not intentional: Timothy has informed me that Roland's set of sermons actually belongs to Charm Buck and Whitaker House.~Webmaster, Gordon Wayne Watts

Your ANGEL STORIES: Testimonials

Your Angel Encounters I was 8 months pregnant, married and asleep when at midnite a loud pounding on our front door.  My husband proceeded to answer the door and it was my brother in law (his brother) who came barging in saying "OMG, Cyndi's mom's house is on fire and they think her brother is trapped in it!" I flew out of bed, the best I could, considering I was XTRA XTRA huge from pregnancy! My husband comes in to the bedroom and says "Stay here, I will go see whats going on!"....I said, "NO! What about my brother? I have to go"....he said "NO, STAY HERE >...I will come back to get you!"  (You have to know my brother is only 11 months older than I and was born blind. I knew my mom worked third shift and would not have been home....but my 20 year old brother, blind, would have been home as it was midnite) I struggled out of bed....and all I had on was a slip as it was extremely hot and we did not have airconditioning.  As my husband exited the bedroom and around the corner I was about 5 feet behind him.  As I got around the corner and at the top of the step, I sat on the top step to take a deep breath. WHen I looked up...a woman was standing there. SHe was all dressed in burgundy , a suit.  An older woman with reddish colored hair. (sort of burgundy also, lol) She says, "Its ok honey, I will take you. Everything is fine." She then said..."Come on , I will help you dress and we will go down." (In my mind I was thinking "who is this woman?" she must have come with my brother in law...or followed him to our home? But it didnt matter to me as she was going to help me and take me there.) This woman walks into our bedroom and proceeds to go to the CHEST OF DRAWERS and remove a maternity top and shorts for me, as well as socks.  I hurridly got dressed and followed her down the steps and out the door to her car.  She obviously had money as she had a beautiful huge cadillac with burgundy rust interior. Very plush. She drove down the main road towards my mom's home. (only 3 miles away)...there was tons of firetrucks, ambulances, etc. I was crying and said..."My brother is blind"... she said "Don't worry honey, your brother is safe. You will see for yourself." SHortly she pulled over into the parking lot across from my mom's house...it was a hardware shop.  I got out of her car and "ran" across the street and my husband and his brother were standing right there in front of the house. My husband looked up and said...."How did you get here"? I said "The lady that came with MIchael" (my brother in law) and Michael said "Hunh? Nobody came with me" I turned to point to the woman and her car.  IT was gone.  COmpletely gone.  The entire street was roadblocked as my mom's house was on property that shared the gas station and it was feared for an explosion....the woman and her car where nowhere in site. NO possible way that woman could have driven her car in and around the barricades that were set up and certainly no possible way for that woman to have exited that quickly, either.  That woman was my guardian angel. Upon thinking, that woman would have had to pass my husband as he was exiting our house as she was coming in.  He did not see any woman there. Neither my husband , nor my  brother in law, said that any other car was in our driveway.  (Her car WAS in our driveway as she guided me to it.) I remembered her going to my Chest of Drawers to help me dress.  How did this woman know that MY clothes were kept in the tall chest of drawers instead of the long dresser with mirrors? (most women take the long dresser w mirror and the men use the chest of drawers. But because my husband wore uniforms to work...he needed more space so he would have the long dresser and drawers and I took the short 4 drawer chest of drawers for mine.) Burgundy.  The color burgundy. Everything was burgundy.  THe womans hair, her shoes, her purse, her suit, her car.  Why didnt that click? Burgundy and pink were the colors of my wedding only 9 months earlier.  Burgundy and Maroon was my favorite color.  That woman was my guardian angel. As for my brother? Well, he was not in the house fire. My mom lost everything. Her home, which contained all of my childhood relics and memories, burned completely to the ground. It was a vicious electrical fire that spread through the wiring and walls rapidly.  Little did we know that after my mom would leave for her third shift work, he would also leave the house and visit with his secret girlfriend....the young divorced woman next door. The next morning, a picture appeared in our local newspaper.  A fireman was holding the completely charred remains of my mom's dresser drawer.  Lying in that drawer was all of my mom's photo albums and loose pictures. Not a single one received so much as a speck of smoke damage. Lying on top...was the Holy Bible.   Written by, Cyndi Caron ItsMeCyndi@comcast.net Londonderry, New Hampshire (Saturday, 11 September 2004, 20:40:37 EDT) Webmaster asks: How'd that woman know the fate of your brother, Cyndi? to which Cyndi replied: She WAS my guardian angel :-) Here's my angel story. It was 1975 and I was living in Alabama and engaged to a guy who had a brother named Jeffery(*) who lived in Devil Hills, NC. Jeff had a job doing custom carpentry on boats. He was about to be married to a very fine, Christian lady. Jeff was a wonderful person, a real Christian. He loved his church (The Rock Church in Manteo) and he and his fiancee were active in youth ministry. I knew that Jeffery prayed for all his family members, including us as we prepared to drive the 16-17 hrs. to see him get married. We always said that Jeff and God had a special communication. It was a hard trip and we took turns driving so that we didn't have to stop. We had no problems getting past Raleigh but we were really tired by the time we reached the easternmost area below Albermarle Sound. We decided to try a short cut through some rural areas to save some miles but we were unsure we were going the right way plus we were so exhausted we couldn't stay awake. It must have been 2-3 a.m. We pulled over to the side of the road and were asleep in 2 minutes. Now this was way out in nowhere and there was nobody on the road. When we awoke it was daylight and the car wouldn't start. We realized we had fallen asleep with the lights on and the battery was dead! We had to get to Kill Devil Hills by a certain time. Nobody had cell phones in those days and according to the map the nearest town was at least 10 miles. We were getting upset. Within a minute or two a blue Thunderbird with a white top flew past and pulled over in front of us. A big, tall man got out and came back to our car window, and said something like, "Got a dead battery, huh?" Well, it didn't occur to me at the time to wonder how he knew that. We could have been out of gas but he seemed to know without asking. I was so happy someone was helping us that I didn't think about the details at the time. We told him we were on the way to a wedding and were worried about getting there on time. We told him we weren't sure where we were. He told us to follow him and that when we came to a crossroads to turn right. So away we went with the T-Bird just flying and we had to floor our Camaro to stay with him but we did and we could see him clearly in front of us. Then, about 6-7 miles along the road the Thunderbird just disappeared. One second it was there and then there was nothing but road in front of us. It wasn't foggy or raining, it was a clear morning. Then we came to the crossroads. We could see pretty far in 4 directions but he was nowhere in sight. We figured he must have taken off like a rocket to get away that fast! When we got to Kill Devil Hills we told everyone about the incident. As we expected Jeffery said he had been praying for us and asking the angels to watch over us on the trip. Someone heard his prayers. The wedding was beautiful and the family, some of whom came from as far away as Seattle, all had a wonderful visit. Years passed and I forgot about the incident until I started reading books about angels and how they sometimes help stranded motorists. Helping us get to that wedding was pretty important. I read that sometimes angels appear as angels but other times seem ordinary enough that it isn't until later that people realize who they were. I also read how they sometimes have a sense of humor. That's true. The last thing I remember seeing on the back of that blue Thunderbird was the emblem on the trunk. Remember the T-bird emblem? It's a pair of WINGS. (*) Some name detail(s) have been changed at the request of the author. Submitted by: Nancy S. SecretGarden260@msn.com Williamsburg, Virginia (Friday, 05 August 2011, 04:57:27 P.M. EDT) Webmaster's comments: If the driver was following the T-Bird, they would both be paying attention to it, to make sure and not get lost, so her testimony that they saw it disappear is compelling. This writer knows the author of this story and trusts her, so her testimony is credible. Also, the driver of the Thunderbird had no way of knowing what was wrong (other than supernatural knowledge), and so his comment about a dead battery, combined with the unexpected disappearance and the type of car he was driving (one with wings in its logo) is too much to explain by chance.

--saying she is verbose is an understatement LOL), and (-3-) She is kind enough to let me post a respectful but firm dissent, sharply disagreeing with her conclusion that a meat & dairy diet is A-OK. Oddly enough, Denise has not responded to my posts, but my web tracker implies or suggests that she probably visited my page to look at it --which is a sign of any good scientist and/or researcher: Doing your homework & gathering facts is what the scientific model is all about.

** APRIL MATHIS, 'World's Strongest Woman', with World Records in the SHW div. of RAW Powerlifting
April Mathis is presently ranked as 'The World's Strongest Woman' by virtue of the fact that she holds the all-time World Records in the Super-Heavyweight division of RAW (unequipped, e.g., belt & wrist wraps only) powerlifting with world records in the squat: 615-lbs., bench press: 415-lbs., deadlift: 580-lbs., and total: 1610-lbs at 254-lb. bodyweight. (In all fairness, Becca Swanson also hold's the title of 'World's Strongest Woman,' but Becca lifts in the equipped division. April is presently training to break the equipped records as well.) April's new website is dedicated towards the sport of competitive powerlifting, strength training, and performing feats of strength once thought to be impossible. Here are some resources to find out more about April:

Editor's Note: I have trained with April at Deb's Gym, here in Lakeland, and she is not only very smart regarding powerlifting, but she is also a genuinely nice person, always willing to help me with my lifting technique and program, which was useful when I started back lifting after a long layoff. To prove that I really know April: Here is file-footage of what happened after we got into some sort of argument: We settled it the only way known to warriors: An arm-wrestling contest. (YouTube vid: 'I challenge World's Strongest Woman to arm-wrestling contest: Best 2 out of 3') - (Cache 1: Right-click to save) - (Cache 2: Right-click to save) Do not let her difficulty here mislead you: She is VERY strong, and this was my first loss to a woman in my adult life, even after many worthy challengers; I have since retired from arm-wrestling on the advice of my trainers. April is as smart as she is strong -and a good neighbour as well. --Editor, Gordon W. Watts
