"It's all fun and games until someone throws a shoe." - Unkown Farrier
Welcome to Milliron Monday where every Monday we celebrate the legacy of Pete Smith, D.V.M., and Milliron: Abbott “Pete” Smith, D.V.M. The Biography (Monday Creek Publishing 2017). A graduate of Colorado State University and a well-known veterinarian in southeast Ohio, Dr. Smith continues to motivate and inspire.
Dr. Smith’s Milliron Clinic was situated just below the Milliron farmhouse. The Milliron kids walked from the farmhouse, past the Clinic, over the cattle guard, to the bus stop. Pat, in his tweens, standing at the bus stop, thinking about his school day, was (probably) surprised to see family friend Fritz pull along the berm. “Want to go with me today?” Fritz asks Pat. An unexpected invitation, grinning, and without much ado, Pat hops in. Fritz, on his way to his next farrier appointment, is glad to have company through the windy roads of southeastern Ohio.
Fritz, a well-known local farrier, has many stops to make that day. He has known Pat for a long time and knows that Dr. Smith and Jody would not disapprove of the serendipitous event. Traveling to stables and farms, the day is filled with the smell of horses, country living, and more horses. Watching the clock, Fritz knows that Pat must be back at the bus stop on time.
Pat, filled with a day of farrier activities, is wore out. Stepping out of Fritz’s vehicle, Pat waves goodbye and walks the driveway to the Milliron farmhouse.
Many years
later, Jody learned of Pat’s farrier field trip with Fritz. Knowing Fritz as a
good family man and friend, Jody laughs and said she had no clue Pat was not in
school. Pat, no worse for the wear, smiles and keeps his memories close.
Have a great week ahead.

Milliron Monday: Tree Rats 6 22 2020
Abbott "Pete" Smith, D.V.M.
June 16, 1938 - February 22, 2010
If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel's heartbeat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence.
– George Eliot
Welcome to Milliron Monday where every Monday we celebrate the legacy of Pete Smith, D.V.M., and Milliron: Abbott “Pete” Smith, D.V.M. The Biography (Monday Creek Publishing 2017). A graduate of Colorado State University and a well-known veterinarian in southeast Ohio, Dr. Smith continues to motivate and inspire.
Living in rural southeastern Ohio provides opportunity to see
native fauna, including squirrels, deer, turkeys, raccoons, possums, bobcats,
coyote, and more. Milliron Farm, nestled in the Ohio valley where trees tower
and the underbrush is thick, is alive with many creatures, especially
squirrels.
Hunting squirrel takes finesse. A fast-moving target,
squirrels run to the treetops, out of sight, a challenge for most hunters. The
meat is usually lean and has a wild game flavor.
Dr. Smith referred to squirrels as “tree rats” – an ever-scampering, tree-running bundle of life. Jody doesn’t remember Dr. Smith hunting squirrel; however, he was an avid deer hunter. Milliron Farm has a large deer population, which provided lean table meat for the Smith family.
Several times, a Milliron Clinic client brought a dressed squirrel (ready to cook) to Dr. Smith during squirrel season (Ohio has specific times when you can hunt squirrel). The dressed squirrel would be given to Jody to prepare for the evening meal. Dr. Smith, saying in his Dr. Smith voice, “Jody, we’re having tree rat for supper!”
Have a great week ahead.

Stephen Hawking on Trial: Confronting the Big Bang by Pierre St. Clair
"Amazing Book"
by Pierre St.
Clair
The wee Doctor behind the electronic voice on trial?
Stephen Hawking's influence was significant.
Nonetheless, noted physicists have detected flaws in his Grand
Design theory of the universe.
Stephen Hawking on Trial
documents serious errors in the final theory of an elder physicist.
In-depth analyses by renowned cosmologists reveal
inconsistencies in Hawking’s thesis:
• Hypotheses vital to his theory lacked supportive data
• Three major questions he glossed over deserved real answers
• What we factually know, but more importantly, what Hawking's
theory failed to explain
Critical roadblocks in today's cosmology
1. "Theoretical physics is at a crossroads right now…In a
sense we’ve entered a very deep crisis.”
Neil Turok PhD – Director of the Perimeter Institute for
Theoretical Physics
2. Cosmology doesn’t thrive on uncertainty.
Hawking's Grand Design thesis increased the uncertainty
factor.
That's why independent investigators legitimately asked: “Can
we have a look at your data?”
Verifying theories is the basis of the scientific method.
Evidence must be beyond reasonable doubt: the rationale
jurors, scientists, and logical people use to settle an issue.
No human is perfect.
That's why all theories and research must face exacting
scrutiny.
3. Gravitation: the Most Common Force in Nature
Stephen Hawking on Trial analyzes
how Dr. Hawking misapplied gravity, and utilized unproven hypotheses, to
support his Grand Design theory.
It was unjustifiable because
hypotheses are simply ideas, hopes, and aspirations.
4. Dark matter and dark energy are unknown factors that
comprise 96% of the universe.
That's why practically every physicist concedes that science
only understands 4% of the cosmos.
Most physicists agree that our knowledge of the laws of
physics are far from settled.
That's a legitimate case for Hawking's Grand Design theory to
stand trial.
Despite the evidence, Professor Hawking declared on a national
TV broadcast:
“The scientific account is complete."
Can our 4% understanding really represent a complete account
of the universe?
"I would rather have questions that can't be answered
than answers that can't be questioned."
Richard Feynman PhD – eminent physicist acclaimed for his work
in quantum electrodynamics and particle physics
5. Although Prof. Hawking portrayed his Grand Design theory as
scientific (i.e. supported by data) most of his "evidence" turned out
to be clouds of caveats and probabilities.
Very few of his ideas were supported by genuine data.
“As a scientist and as an educator, I like the idea that we
believe things because there’s evidence.”
Richard Dawkins PhD – Oxford University Professor &
Bestselling Author
There are abundant reasons for Hawking's Grand Design theory
to stand trial.
"Stephen Hawking on Trial is compelling reading
for anyone with an interest in physics and cosmology. It may challenge your
beliefs, or maybe not, but it's a fascinating read in either case."
J. Chambers – Amazon Top 10 Reviewer
Unfortunately, some Hawking followers are rudely attacking the
author of this book.
Of course, ad hominem slander only reveals an inability to
address logical arguments.
Negative attacks with no supporting data is the method of
neophytes, not scientists.
Clearly, such people haven't read this book and remain
ignorant of the thoroughly examined points other renowned physicists have
revealed.
Judge the controversy yourself, free from ad hominem
defamation.

entanglement and the double slit experiment are included in the book.

Author
Quote:
"I love
digging behind the scenes to find out what’s really happening beneath the
headlines. That's why I became an investigative journalist."
Cosmology
on Trial:
an all-inclusive overview introducing readers to unexplained/unsolved mysteries
of the universe rarely discussed in Academia.
"This
book makes the strong point that our cosmology of yesteryear wasn’t based on
solid evidence, and our cosmology of today isn't either." V. DiCara
Stephen
Hawking on Trial:
explains why the most common force in nature, Gravity, is not included in the
Standard Model of Physics.
General
Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, and String Theory have not proven whether
Gravity is a wave, a graviton particle, or a fabric of spacetime.
"Scientific
progress and complacency go ill together. St Clair has done a superb job
advancing the cause of real science." M. Lyons
Vaccines
on Trial:
reveals why vaccine charts and graphs rank the US 34th for infant mortality
among first world nations.
Scientific
studies comparing vaccinated & unvaccinated children in the US, Germany,
Sweden, and New Zealand show unvaccinated kids healthier than their vaccinated
peers. Moreover, vaccinated kids have more health problems later in life.
"This
book has everything you need to know the facts." R. Marinell.
