priority for limited Covid vaccination pill. Questions related to
racism, favoritism and legality may be an issue here.

A Belgian outpost in Antarctica was hit by an outbreak of Covid 19,
even though all of the workers had been vaccinated prior to arriving
and had been tested both before and after they arrived and had never
been in contact with any outsiders. This brings up a number of issues
including if the Covid-19 tests work, if the Covid emergency use
"vaccination" itself works, if what is called Covid-19 even
a virus and if it has ever been isolated, and how could they have
contracted Covid-19, if they did not have contact with the outside
world. A most unusual situation.
December 24, 2021
More U.S. Marines have been discharged from service for refusing to
take the emergency authorized Covid-19 vaccination. Some question the
effectiveness and the short and long term safety of the vaccination,
which was developed in only a few months and the questions surround
the science behind it.

President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill Biden held a call in talk

the New York City City Council voted to ban the use of Natural gas in
all new buildings, starting in 2023. How the new buildings will be
heated after this point is a matter of question since electricity is
expensive and the electric grid may well be overwhelmed if only
electricity is used for heating and cooking purposes.

Pope Francis has issued new guidelines that are designed to limit the
ability of local Catholic priests from saying the Catholic Mass in
Latin. The Latin Mass had been the main mass for over 1,000 years,
but was gradually changed starting just after World War 2 in steps
until 1969 when effectively the Latin Mass was completely banned.
Then in the early 2,000's, Pope Benedict issued a proclamation again
permitting the age old Latin Mass and calling it the Mass in
"Extraordinary form".

President Biden has predicted a "winter of death" for the
unvaccinated (regarding the Covid-19 emergency use vaccination).
December 14, 2021
Many industries are experiencing extreme worker and employee
shortages that is causing shortages and delays in the product supply
chain, as well as problems in the service and medical hospital
businesses. It is estimated that between 40 and 60 percent of
educated and skilled workers refuse to be vaccinated and have thus
lost their jobs, because of various vaccine mandates. Further,
unskilled labor refuses to work for the extremely low wages that were
paid to them in the past. They now rightfully are demanding a basic
living wage. In city environments, it is estimated that a basic
living wage would be between $30 and $45 per hour.
December 14, 2021
It is estimated that 20% of the people who have purchased tickets to
attend concerts and other events do not show up. It is believed that
they do not realize that in New York City, they must show proof of
vaccination to enter entertainment venues, unlike the rest of the
state that does not have such restrictions.
December 12, 2021
The FDA is working with the United States Postal Service to stop
shipments of Ivermectin, that many people feel cures or treats Covid
and other viruses better than the prescribed drugs and in lieu of the
Covid 19 vaccination, which about 50% of the population fears is
dangerous. Ivermectin has been used to prevent and treat river
blindness and other ailments since 1989, without any known side effects.

December 8, 2021
Today is the 30th anniversary of the dissolution of the Soviet Union,
which ended on December 8th, 1991. The republics of the former Soviet
Union Suffered from extreme socialist and communist tyranny for 67
years (74, if one considers 1917 the founding of the USSR, which did
not officially come in to existence till 1924).
December 7th,
2021. Today is the 80th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl

1.2 TRILLION
DOLLAR INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAM
Infrastructure
program: New York City is about to receive billions of
dollars of the enormous money that has been granted by Congress (and
paid for by the taxpayers). Cable
Cars: One proposal is to build a
series of cable cars, similar to the Roosevelt Island cable car, to
make additional connections between Brooklyn and Manhattan, Manhattan
and New Jersey and Brooklyn and Staten Island. Further, it is
proposed that a cable car going along the east side of Manhattan,
from the East Village up to the upper east side of Manhattan. While
this is an interesting proposal, such issues as cost verses benefit
and perhaps safety comes to mind. Will this billion dollar project
really improve NYC transportation? Will a cable car dangling over the
Hudson River or over New York Harbor between Brooklyn and Staten
Island in the high winds of winter really be safe? We recommend that
this project be very carefully analyzed and put to public scrutiny
before being adapted.
Subway
Safety Gates: We firmly recommend that the City Of New
York finally adapt Frank X. Didik's proposal for subway safety gates.
The entire project to put subway gates on all subway and elevated
train platforms would cost an estimated $600 million dollars and
would ultimately save countless lives and would prevent hundreds of
people a year
from losing limbs and being permanently disabled. Read more about
this remarkable proposal here
- read more.

hundreds of people are killed or severely injured when they fall onto
the tracks of trains and subways. The prevention is cost efficient
and greatly reduces liability ...

Subway
Noise: In
addition to the much needed subway
gate proposal an additional proposal to
greatly lower subway noise could be achieved over several years and
would cost an estimated 500 million dollars. This would make riding
the subway much more pleasant and bring NYC up to the standards of
the Tokyo, Hong Kong, Moscow and most modern subway systems.
Presently, NYC's subway system is aged and and far below the current
global standards. Read
more here about reducing subway noise.
Greatly
reduce train noise A
significant amount of train noise is caused by the train wheels
rolling over the expansion joint of the tracks. This vibration
creates noise, vibrations, an less pleasant ride and also reduces the
life cycle of the train. The solution is relatively simple and cost effective..read

A
$40 per hour minimum
wage? ...Frank
X. Didik, September 22, 2021
In
1962, the average 35 year old working man was able to support a
wife, 3 or 4 children, own a house in the suburbs, have 2 cars and
had enough money to go on a vacation once or twice a year. Today, it
takes two highly educated people working to buy a small one or two
bedroom coop or condo, car ownership is rare and they can only afford
to have one or two children at best. To achieve what a man in 1962
made per week and to regain the standard of living of that time, the
minimum wage must be increased to $40 per hour. The gradual decline
over the past 60 years should be changed. Perhaps "shock
treatment" that was recommended to the former communist
countries in Eastern Europe by "experts" from leading
American Universities, should be the guide for this sudden increase
in the average (minimum) wage. Several things would happen. First,
people would initially spend much more money and this would almost
instantly create huge demand. At the same time, it is very possible
that prices would go up, though perhaps not as fast as one might
expect, since production efficiency is much greater today than in
1962. Finally, it might be necessary to implement trade barriers.
This of course would run counter to the direction of globalism.
Perhaps it is time to modify the notion of globalism and take into
account the different global cultures, work ethics and achievements.
Brief Comments
A
reminder to fellow
citizens When
you walk down the street, just remember that every person who you
pass by, regardless of their race or physical appearance, or if they
are rich or poor, has their own goals and aspirations, trials and
tribulations and each person must be treated with basic respect and dignity.
It is essential to
individualize and not generalize. Each group has their good and bad
and one must not fall into the trap of assuming that everyone in a
particular group is the same or thinks the same. Sometimes in our
rush or arrogance, we forget these basic truths.

Defund?
Some anti-police groups have called for the defunding of the police
around the country. Question: late at night, if you are traveling in
an empty subway car and two police officers come on, do you feel
threatened or are you relieved and hope that they stay on for the
duration of your trip? The answer is obvious. The police are
essential to maintaining order in any society.

Subway
barriers: New
York, NY January 21, 2022 With falling and being pushed onto the
subway tracks becoming a daily occurrence, it is time to promptly
install subway barriers / gates on all 480 subway and elevated
stations. Frank Didik, who has been desperately pushing subway gates
to the MTA and other agencies since over a decade points out that
hundreds of people could have been saved over this period of time.
Further, thousands of people could have been spared hideous, life
transforming injuries, including by MTA workers. Further, the MTA
could have avoided paying out hundreds of millions of dollars in
liability, that could have already paid for the entire subway gate system.

Eric
Adams was
sworn in as the City of New York's 110 mayor on January 1st, 2022. Most
New Yorkers are very hopeful that new Mayor Adam's will again put
the city on the right track. Unfortunately, under the leadership of
former Mayor Bill DeBlasio, the city experienced a significant rise
in crime, lower freedoms, neglect in many infrastructure areas and
concerns about the education of the children. Mayor Adam's has
promised to reinstitute the much needed NYPD street division, refund
the police department to bring back law and order. We are all hopeful
that Mayor Adams will reinvigorate our city and be the shining light
for the country.
NEWS1.net
endorsed
Mr. Eric Adams
to be the next mayor for the City of New York. Mr. Adams has served
New York City in many capacities including being a police officer, a
state senator and presently the Brooklyn Borough President. I can
testify that Mr. Adams has gone out of his way to serve the people of
New York. For example, he made is a point to personally come and
attend relatively small, downtown Brooklyn community meetings. He was
so modest, that many people did not realize that he was the Brooklyn
Borough President. News1.net is confident that Mr. Adams will be the
mayor for all the people in New York City and will bring back law and
order, encourage business activity and continue to make New York City
the envy of the world. We endorse Mr. Eric Adams as the next Mayor
for the City of New York.

Inflation
is back with a vengeance. Just
a month ago, News1.net wrongly predicted that inflation would be
minimal, even with the massive "printing" of
"money". Apparently, our analysis was completely
wrong..inflation is back and is as sever, if not more so, than the 1980-1982. Items
such as housing purchases, used automobiles, fuel and food has
increase has been astounding ranging from 15% to over 35% more than
just one year ago.

later used the name Warren de Blasio-Wilhelm and then finally adapted
his mother's maiden name DeBlasio and today is commonly known as Bill

Frank Didik, February 1, 2022
Massive
inflation coming?
Frank
X. Didik, January 2, 2021.
At the start of 2020, it was estimated
that the United States national debt was 21 Trillion dollars. As of
January 2, 2021, as a result of the vast "printing" of
additional money for Covid Relief and other expenses, this debt is
estimated at just under 30 trillion dollars. Surely, one would think
that a 30% increase in money supply would lead to significant
inflation, but this has not happened. I believe that this is
primarily because of vast production surpluses, on every level
including manufacturing, services and farming. Robotics, efficient
computerized allocation of resources and transportation has produced
enough for everyone, without pressure on the market. January
1, 2022 update:
Unfortunately, my analysis was wrong. I did not take into
consideration several important labor factors. First, when it was
permitted to return to work, many workers refused since a new
requirement was pushed, that is that the workers had to submit to the
experimental Covid-19 vaccination and many workers refused because of
fears regarding the possibility of short and long term safety of the
vaccination. Further some refused that vaccination since aborted
fetal cells were used in some steps in the development of the
vaccination. Another issue, particularly in lower paid jobs, is that
people became used to the extra money that they had been given while
on job furlows and now refuse to return to low paying jobs, that do
not pay enough to live a basic standard of living. These factors have
greatly disrupted supply chain, not only in the United States but on
a global basis.
DO
NOT DEFUND THE POLICE With
skyrocketing crime, it is clear that NYC must have an effective and
well funded NYPD otherwise we will be like the wild west.
Remote
working, office space, the diminished need for employees Frank
X. Didik, January 1, 2020 It
is fascinating to note that as a result of the government imposed
Covid-19 restrictions, that for a period of time, an estimated 30% of
the population was out of work, and yet the country did not
experience any long term shortages, in any area. One might say that
this is a wake-up call for companies to show them that they have too
many redundant employees. read

Evolution
of American English Accents I have noticed that accents
evolve very quickly. If you were to watch a movie from the 1930's,
1940's or any other time, you will notice that people from each
period have distinct accents. Recently, I have noticed that first
generation Americans, who perhaps grew up in bilingual families, for
example Polish or Chinese families, have a distinct, new American
accent. I presume that over time, everyone's accent will be
significantly different in years to come.

Reason,
Logic and intellect is not reliable.
The late Christopher Hitchens often stated that we should rely on our
logic, reason and intellect to determine the truth. Many people who
pride themselves as educated, intelligent and progressive believe the
same. As reasonable as this seems, Galileo proved over 400 years ago
that our logic, reason and intellect is unreliable and that only
direct experimental data, should be relied upon. Galileo had dropped
two balls of the same material, but different masses, from the
Leaning Tower of Pisa to demonstrate that they would hit the ground
at the same time, rather than the heavier ball hitting the ground
first, as almost everyone, including Aristotle, 2000 years ago, had
assumed. Our logic, reason and intellect is not reliable and should
only be viewed as speculation. Only direct experimentation and
obtaining the same results, over and over again should be relied upon.

Producing
the very best and most effective TV commercials The
single purpose of a television commercial is to sell the product or
service. The fact that an advertisement might be interesting, funny,
informative or well produced is secondary to the main purpose, which
is to sell the product or service. One should never leave the
creation of the television commercial to the television producer or
the video editor. ... read

Questioning
the results of modern science. For
the last 100 years, we have been experiencing the collapse of real
science. Theories, speculation and fantasy is the norm today. By
definition, the scientific method is the ability to test and re-test
and always get the same results, over and over. If an idea or a
theory can not be tested, the idea must be viewed as speculation and
not considered true, till that idea is proven without a doubt.
Scientific theory has moved to areas that are beyond our present
capability of testing and gradually a number of unproven theories
have become accepted as fact without any real proof. Further, new
theories have been developed based on old theories. Thus we have a
situation where science today is largely based on theory upon theory.
If something can not be proven, it falls into the realm of philosophy
rather than science. This has led to...read

Science
and media hype: Any
sudden "revolutionary" scientific discovery, even if such
discovery is written about in every newspaper and scientific journal,
should be greeted with skepticism. Such a discovery should only be
accepted after the bulk of scientists have have had a chance to
review the discovery and confirm that it is in fact correct. Such
things that come to mind include cold fusion, the so called "God
Particle" and even the recent stated discovery of a
"gravitational wave". All too often such media hype has
come and gone without any real discovery or fundamental change. ..read
