BARKING SANDS — The U.S. Missile Defense Agency and U.S. Navy sailors aboard USS John Finn on Friday conducted an intercept of a medium-range ballistic missile target with a Standard Missile-3 Block IIA missile during a flight test off the west coast of Hawaii.
Agency officials are hailing it a success, including Pacific Missile Range Facility Capt. Vincent Johnson.
“I am extremely proud of the men and women at the Pacific Missile Range. Every mission is a team effort,” he said. “They are consummate professionals and truly world-class in the testing and training opportunities PMRF provides to the nation.”
The SM-3 Block IIA is being developed cooperatively by the U.S. and Japan and operates as part of the AEGIS Ballistic Missile Defense system.
The target missile was launched from PMRF on Friday. The USS John Finn detected and tracked the target missile with its onboard AN/SPY-1 radar using the Aegis Baseline 9.C2 weapon system. Upon acquiring and tracking the target, the ship launched an SM-3 Block IIA guided missile, which intercepted the target.
“This was a superb accomplishment and key milestone for the SM-3 Block IIA return to flight,” said MDA Director Lt. Gen. Sam Greaves.
Aloha Kakou, from Missiles to Good Health,
It would seem that this missile tracking, and destroying it both, has a huge expense not only for the actions that can be filmed, but also for the technological effort it must have required behind the scene taking place in labs and thinking rooms in the far reaches of Silicon Valley and Washington, D.C.
With the amount of people with sickness and disease and on over the counter and prescription petrochemical medicines on Kaua’i, a more real time threat to ones health and life, than the preparation for the next Fake or real missile alert, one could think that spending significant monies on the cause of at least one of the outstanding, more frequent sickness or diseases in the population of Kaua’i, would be of similar importance and timeliness than the less than imminent missile attack on the horizon of time anywhere in the world.
A picture of missile take off and interception is a very real study in “Up in Smoke” with out tax dollars, whereas finding and/or confirming causes of sickness and disease, and being able to identify these causes, would allow us as a society to remove or eliminate the causes, not only as prevention but also relying on Prevention as the Cure. Certainly removing a Cause of Disease is shown already to roll back the effects of disease relying on the body’s Healing Process.
Disease is a process also, or you could look at it as an accumulation or progression of physical degenerative defects and effects, in the human body. There is a Cause to all Effects, and finding the Cause is a worthy expense of time and money and brain work spent on it. Removing or eliminating the Causes of Disease is a noble and rewarding effort, challenge, and discovery. And converts Suffering into
Happiness.
Animals have same negative disease processes as humans. And this why eating animals can put those disease process effects or sick and diseased animal cells, tissues, and organs, into ones own human body. Yeeech…!
We know that cigarettes Cause lung cancer, and excess alcohol Causes liver disease; but why do we stop there, why aren’t we looking for the Causes of known illnesses, after all there are thousands to choose from, but we only have to find the Cause 1 Disease at a time, instead of spending $Trillions in dollars on after the fact Medical Drug Treatments and Surgeries, with multiple negative side effects, and only masking or hiding of symptoms, or FAKE altering of numbers on testing of body fluids or functions without improving the illness.
Lowering your High Blood Pressure (HBP) numbers with drugs, is not fixing or “curing” your HBP, because the disease of HBP is not the numbers, the disease is: what is causing the high numbers of your HBP. Even though you have lower numbers you stil have the disease, and all the while ignoring the Cause of HBP. clearly a case of mismanagement of disease.
Choosing a Disease like OBESITY, and it’s twin, DIABETES, or its Cousins, Heart and Vascular Disease would be a good start. A thorough interview of many of these disease victims would find similarity of Cause and those Causes could be identified and eliminated, avoided, or prevented. The DHI investigators can easily see who has obesity just by walking down the street…perhaps even passing out questionnaires relating to finding the Causes of some prevalent diseases.
The American Cancer Socierty has been looking for the Cause of Cancer for at least 70 years, it seems that the Cause is not in a test tube under a microscope, though it may be if Dairy protein is a cause, but then the protein is in the cows and not a test tube, and passed on into humans, no wonder cow kids do not get cow dairy protein cancer, they only drink it for some months; and the human kids…some drink it for a lifetime regardless of how sick they are. Drinking cows milk, It’s just a habit they say.
If just those 4 Diseases stayed above were reduced or eliminated on Kaua’i, many other Diseases would be jealous of being ignored and would demand equal investigation and elimination.
People in real time and suffering would be benefited and remarkable things would be the Trickle Down.
We would need a new breed of Health Investigators, certainly medical doctors would not be qualified for the effort to eliminate the Cause of their jobs or the tools…the drugs, they depend on for treatments.
It would require people who could think out of the box, pleasant, loving, compassionate, thorough, Causative Factor thinking people.
Probably young people who have a lot to live for in Decades of Health would be good candidates for some of the research of the Causes of Diseases.
Maybe someone needs to start a group…for example, it could be called the Decades of Health Investigators, or the DHI.
We already have the DOH, the Dept. of Health, but they’ve done very little in improving the actual Health of our citizens, because Diseases are getting to be more of, and impacting more people, younger in their life. For instance, children with cancer? Young people with obesity and diabetes? Youth with early on heart and vascular disease? Something is wrong and needs fixing.
It can be done…Just Do It…!
Mahalo,
Charles
Still wasting millions on war preparation, when THEY should be thinking about their relocation needs!
