Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Explosion caused fire at Mississippi biodiesel plant

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - January 22, 2014 (WPVI) --  A fire burning Wednesday at a biodiesel facility in north Mississippi began with an early morning explosion, according to authorities, who said no injuries have been reported and the cause remains under investigation.

Union County Emergency Management Director Curt Clayton said in a news release Wednesday that two workers escaped without injuries at the time of the explosion around 6:00 a.m.

Officials planned to let the fire at North Mississippi Biodiesel burn out because it was too hot to fight, according to Mississippi Highway Patrol spokesman Ronny Hall.

The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency said one home and two industrial businesses near the plant were evacuated as a precaution.

MEMA said the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality has teams in the area to test for hazardous materials that may leave the site, but have not detected any so far.

The explosion also damaged a nearby power substation that caused a power outage to the town of Blue Mountain and surrounding areas in Tippah County, including Blue Mountain College. The electricity was restored, MEMA said.

David L. Franks, listed as North Mississippi Biodiesel's vice president in documents filed with the Mississippi Secretary of State's office, declined to answer any questions when contacted Wednesday by The Associated Press. The company was incorporated in 2005, according to secretary of state's office records.

Phil Nanney, executive director of the Union County Development Association, said the business is "relatively small operation" with about five employees. He said a church daycare center near the plant asked parents to keep their children home Wednesday as a precaution.

"A large plume of smoke could be seen from several miles away," Nanney said in a telephone interview.

The plant is located in northeast Mississippi, near New Albany, a town of about 8,000 people, on Highway 15, which remained closed to traffic on Wednesday afternoon.
