By Joanna SmallCBS NewsJune 30, 2015, 6:48 PM-Massive wildfires rip through Washington State-CBS-YAHOONEWS

WENATCHEE, Wash. -- Firefighters are in for another long night in Central Washington State.And thousands of homeowners have been warned they might have to evacuate at any time.A wildfire that kicked up on Sunday is still burning out of control after tearing through the town of Wenatchee. Those who returned home today found little to salvage.More than a dozen large fires are burning in the West tonight.
The massive Sleepy Hollow wildfire, fueled by strong winds and scorching heat, burned through the canyons and hills of Central Washington State destroying 24 homes and forcing thousands to evacuate. The blaze ignited in brush and quickly spread when embers blew into downtown Wenatchee and setting a recycling plant and three businesses on fire.Incident Commander Nathan Rabe said wind was their biggest problem."This fire extended with the winds that they had. It threw embers and stuff down wind," he said.
In the hardest hit neighborhood of Broadview, fire crews worked through the night hosing down houses. Jon Dominguez left when the fire started approaching his house Sunday night."Oh my god, this power is so impressive," he said. "A big orange glow kind of a fire ball and a lot of black smoke billowing."He returned home Monday to rubble."This is all I have now," he said pointing to his shirt. "It is just heartbreaking."
Three-thousand acres have been lost in the Sleepy Hollow fire, but fires are increasing daily throughout the west and Alaska with high temperatures building and lightening strikes.So far, $91-million has been spent on fires currently burning in the western states and Alaska. Activity was much lighter at this time last year, only $5-million by the end of June 2014.

Arizona to pay firefighter families $670,000 over wildfire deaths-Reuters By David Schwartz-June 29, 2015 10:07 PM-YAHOONEWS

PHOENIX (Reuters) - Arizona will pay a total of $670,000 to the families of the 19 elite firefighters killed in the country's deadliest wildfire in 80 years and has agreed to reform the way it fights wildfires, state officials said.Under two agreements, the state will pay $50,000 to each of a dozen families to settle their wrongful death lawsuit filed last year stemming from the deaths of the 19 men.Another $10,000 will be paid to each family of the other seven firefighters who died in the Yarnell Hill Fire in June 2013.There is no admission of blame in the settlement documents.Officials said chief among the settlement terms is an agreement that the state will work to change its firefighting procedures and technologies to improve the safety of crews on the front lines.Pat McGroder, a lawyer who represented the families in the wrongful death case, said the issue was never about money.“Our clients wanted transparency and change to ensure that what happened to their loved ones that day would never happen again,” McGroder told a news conference.The settlements come on the eve of the second anniversary of the deaths of the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots who died in the lightning-caused, wind-whipped blaze that roared across drought-parched land northeast of Phoenix in June 2013, destroying scores of homes and charring about 8,400 acres.The hotshot crew died two days after the fire’s start, trapped by a wall of flames as they moved in a box canyon and were overcome by the fast- moving blaze. Hotshot Brendan McDonough was the lone survivor.Two investigative reports were issued after the fire, one of which concluded that state forestry officials placed more importance on saving structures and land than firefighter safety.State Forester Jeff Whitney said the settlements will enable fire managers to apply “lessons learned and lessons to be learned from the tragic circumstances … for the betterment of firefighter and public safety.”(Editing by Cynthia Johnston)

MATTHEW CH 24:1-3
1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? (AGE OF GRACE)

THIS IS THE 7TH CHURCH FIRE IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS.SOMEBODYS OUT TO GET RID OF CHURCHES.

South Carolina church, scene of Ku Klux Klan arson, on fire again-Reuters-JULY 1,15-YAHOONEWS

(Reuters) - An African-American church in South Carolina that was burned down by the Ku Klux Klan 20 years ago was the scene of another blaze on Tuesday, officials and a newspaper said, though the cause was not immediately clear.The fire at Mount Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church in the city of Greeleyville comes amid a rash of fires that have erupted at black churches across the U.S. south, at least two of which have already been declared as deliberate.It also comes roughly two weeks after a white gunman opened fire inside the historic Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, 65 miles (105 km) away, killing nine people during a Bible study. All the victims were black.The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said in a statement online it was on the scene of the Greeleyville fire.There were no immediate reports of injuries.Mark Keel, chief of the State Law Enforcement Division, told the Post and Courier newspaper that the cause of the blaze could not be determined until the flames were out.He told the newspaper that while lightning from a recent storm system in the area may have sparked the blaze, he was troubled by the recent spate of church fires."Certainly, I think we all are concerned about those things," he told the newspaper.The Clarendon County Fire Department said in a statement that the fire was under control. A picture the agency posted on Twitter showed flames roaring inside the church, behind an exterior wall adorned with a cross.Federal investigators have said they have so far found no link between the fires at predominantly black churches across the southern United States since the shooting, and none have been labeled hate crimes.Tuesday's fire would be at least the seventh blaze since the shooting, an attack that stoked an ongoing national outcry over race relations following several high-profile police killings of unarmed African-American men over the past year.Former President Bill Clinton spoke at the dedication of the Mount Zion church in June 1996 - a year after the arson - which came amid some 670 arsons, bombings or attempted bombings at mostly African-American churches in the 1990s."You think about what happened 90 years ago ... people might have expected things like a church bombing. That was the time of Jim Crow, and there were evening lynchings in the South," Clinton said then. "We know that we're not going back to those dark days, but we are now reminded that our job is not done."(Reporting by Curtis Skinner in San Francisco; Editing by Nick Macfie)

In some U.S. churches, guns are the answer to a prayer-Reuters By James Oliphant-JULY 1,15-YAHOONEWS

JACKSON, Mich. (Reuters) - The Sunday service was winding down, but before it ended, Bishop Ira Combs led the congregation of 300 at the Greater Bible Way Temple in prayer. The shootings that killed nine people in a Charleston church could not happen here, he reassured his flock."If they had security, the assailant would not have been able to reload," Combs declared. "All of us here are not going to turn the other cheek while you shoot us."As he preached, Combs was flanked by a man on each side of the pulpit, each armed with handguns beneath their suit coats. Other members of the church's security team were scattered among the crowd. Congregants did not know who was armed and who was not - an undercover approach that is part of the security plan."We aren't looking to engage people in violence, but we are going to practice law enforcement," Combs told Reuters before the service. "And we are going to interdict if someone comes in with a weapon."The June 17 church shootings in Charleston, South Carolina, have ignited fierce debates across the country over hate crimes, the Confederate flag, and gun control.They also have laid bare an uncomfortable truth for religious leaders: churches and other houses of worship, among the most open and welcoming of American institutions, can also be among the most vulnerable.In 2013, a gunman shot Ronald Harris, a pastor in Lake Charles, Louisiana, while he preached a sermon. A year earlier, a gunman at a Sikh Temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, killed six people. In 2009, another small-town pastor, Fred Winters, was shot in the pulpit during a morning service in Maryville, Illinois.Many churches do not take security seriously enough, said John Ojeisekhoba, who runs a security consulting firm in California that works with churches, schools, and camps."Church is supposed to be a sacred place. Telling your congregation that we need to have armed security during the service, it's not something that is easy to do," he said.Theron Wiggins, a pastor in Flint, Michigan, and a former police detective, is one of the preachers trying to change the mindset."They believe the angels will protect us," Wiggins said about his congregation. "Well, I'm one of the angels."

ARMED AND UNDERCOVER

Churches in Michigan have ample reason to take the message seriously. A year ago at the Citadel of Praise church in Detroit, a man wielding an ax was shot by an off-duty police officer. In 2012, Pastor Marvin Winans, a member of the famous gospel singing group, was carjacked and robbed at a Detroit intersection, an event that some local pastors cite as a reason they have become security conscious."Nobody should have to worship in fear or be looking over their shoulder," said Charles Ellis, pastor of the Greater Grace Temple, a Pentecostal megachurch in Detroit with 6,000 members.Ellis' church has a trained, armed, 25-man security force, nicknamed "The Ministers of Defense." Many have backgrounds in law enforcement. Some are stationed conspicuously on the stage, while others blend in with the crowd.Not everyone supports the presence of guns in sanctuaries that are supposed to be devoted to peace and reflection.In April, church leaders criticized a Catholic priest in Ann Arbor, Michigan, after he advised worshipers to arm themselves for protection and offered a class in obtaining a concealed carry permit. The priest, Edward Fride, canceled the class after the local diocese said it had no place on church property.In North Carolina, the CrossPointe Church in Fayetteville is reconsidering its use of armed security guards after a news story on them prompted angry emails from across the country."The criticism came from people who thought guns, even concealed by church security, were a mockery of people who claimed faith in God to meet all their needs in life," said Franklin Pounders, a minister at the church."My philosophy is a bit different. The Bible says, 'In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.'"

"GOD IS MY GUN"

At Greater Bible Way, security is a particular concern as Combs' outspoken opposition to same-sex marriage has brought protesters to his doors. Active in politics, he is part of a Republican National Committee effort to improve African-American outreach. He is also a local deputy sheriff.While Combs preaches, the church's security coordinator, Calvin Williams, keeps watch. Williams listens to chatter from other security members on a Secret Service-style earpiece and totes a Taurus .45 caliber pistol tucked under his jacket.Eighteen cameras scattered on the grounds of the small church monitor people as they come and go. The church sits in a hardscrabble section of Jackson, so the security measures are aimed also at carjackings, property theft, and attempts to steal the church's collection box."People think churches have money," Williams said. Moments after the pastor blesses proceeds from the collection, one of the armed ushers escorts the box into a locked office for the remainder of the service.One challenge is to put security into place without alienating visitors. Since the Charleston shootings, Greater Bible Way has begun considering installing a magnetometer, though Williams is hesitant because of the image such a device might project.Congregants have mixed reactions to the security presence in church."In the times we live in today, it's necessary," said Joshua Webb, a church member from nearby Lansing.Rose Phillips, of Jackson, said the armed security detail made her feel no safer. "God is my gun," she said.(Reporting by James Oliphant; Editing by David Greising and Tiffany Wu)

AND IN OKLAHOMA.THEY WANT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS TAKEN DOWN.

Court: 10 Commandments Monument Must Come Down at Okla. Capitol-The Ten Commandments monument at Oklahoma's state Capitol must be taken down because it benefits Christian and Jewish faiths, the state Supreme Court ruled.foxnews-july 1,15

The Associated Press reported:Oklahoma's highest court said the Ten Commandments chiseled into the 6-foot-tall granite monument, which was privately funded by a Republican legislator, are "obviously religious in nature and are an integral part of the Jewish and Christian faiths."The 7-2 ruling overturns a decision by a district court judge who determined the monument could stay.Attorney General Scott Pruitt had argued that the monument was historical in nature and nearly identical to a Texas monument that was found constitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court. The Oklahoma justices said the local monument violated the state's constitution, not the U.S. Constitution."Quite simply, the Oklahoma Supreme Court got it wrong," Pruitt said in a statement. "The court completely ignored the profound historical impact of the Ten Commandments on the foundation of Western law."Pruitt said his office would ask the court for a rehearing and request that the monument be allowed to stay until the court considers his request.Since the original monument was erected in 2012, several other groups have asked to put up their own monuments on the Capitol grounds. Among them is a group that wants to erect a 7-foot-tall statue that depicts Satan as Baphomet, a goat-headed figure with horns, wings and a long beard.A Hindu leader in Nevada, an animal rights group, and the satirical Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster also have made requests.Rep. Mike Ritze, a Republican from Broken Arrow whose family paid about $10,000 for the monument's construction, pushed the bill authorizing the monument. He said Tuesday he hoped the attorney general would appeal the ruling.The original monument was smashed into pieces in October, when someone drove a car across the Capitol lawn and crashed into it. A 29-year- old man who was arrested the next day was admitted to a hospital for mental health treatment, and formal charges were never filed.A new monument was built and put up again in January.Student Strikes After School Takes Down 10 Commandments Plaque-Family Takes Down Roadside Memorial Cross After Atheists Protest-Atheist Raking in Six Figure Salary for Creating iPhone Bible App-Siblings Shut Down School Bus Bully With Bible.

Crowds count down to legalization of marijuana in Oregon, then light up-Reuters By Shelby Sebens-JULY 1,15-YAHOONEWS

PORTLAND, Ore. (Reuters) - Crowds counted down the minutes to midnight then lit up joints as smoking marijuana became legal in Oregon on Wednesday, part of a growing legalization movement spreading down the United States' west coast.Hundreds gathered on the Burnside Bridge in downtown Portland and smoked under the glow of a neon city sign, marking the moment that the law allowing recreational use, backed by voters in November, came into effect.The legislation opens the way for shops to sell marijuana by next year - though some lawmakers say they will still try to block retail outlets.Similar legislation is already in force in Alaska and Washington State, reflecting a shifting legal landscape for a drug that remains illegal under federal law.Further down the coast, legalization campaigns are underway in California, while recreational use is already allowed in Colorado and Washington D.C. About half the country's states allow marijuana for medical use."We are thrilled with the end of adult marijuana prohibition, but we are far from where we need to be," said Russ Belville, from the Portland chapter of pro-marijuana group NORML, on Tuesday before the law came into effect.Oregon residents aged 21 and older can now smoke privately, grow up to four plants and posses up to eight ounces (227 grams) at home and one ounce outside home, the Liquor Control Commission said.Driving while high remains illegal and pot cannot be transported out of state, even to neighboring Washington, where retailing started last year, the commission said.Public smoking also remains illegal, but there were no immediate reports of arrests at the Portland bridge.Regulators will start accepting business license applications in January, with stores slated for next fall.But some lawmakers remain opposed and are pushing for legislation to allow municipalities where at least 55 percent of voters opposed the November ballot to ban marijuana outlets, Republican state Senator Ted Ferrioli said on Tuesday." Nervousness about marijuana sort of becoming normed in our society is widespread," Ferrioli said.In a dig at stoned snackers, Portland police have issued a graphic showing how much marijuana a person can possess by comparing the amount with a donut.(Reporting by Shelby Sebens and Steve Dipaola in Portland, Oregon; Editing by Curtis Skinner and Andrew Heavens)

U.S. Justice Dept. cites missteps by police during Ferguson unrest-Reuters By Carey Gillam-JULY 1,15-YAHOONEWS
(Reuters) - Police responding to race-related protests and riots in Ferguson, Missouri, last summer made a series of missteps, including antagonizing crowds with attack dogs and military-style tactics, according to a U.S. Justice Department report.The report, a copy of which was obtained by Reuters, is a draft summary of a document the department plans to release in the coming weeks evaluating law enforcement actions. A Justice Department representative said the "after-action assessment ... will convey the findings and lessons learned."The report focuses on the tactics of police from Ferguson, St. Louis, St. Louis County and the Missouri Highway Patrol. All four agencies tried to quell the protests and riots that broke out after a white Ferguson police officer shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, on Aug. 9, 2014.
A county grand jury declined to indict Officer Darren Wilson for killing 18-year-old Brown, and the Justice Department said no charges would be brought. But Brown's death set off months of protests about police treatment of minorities that expanded to cities around the country.Justice Department and police officials are scheduled to meet on Thursday, according to the St. Louis Police Department."We are always willing to engage in constructive dialogue about best practices," the St. Louis department said in a statement. "We are interested in the final report to identify what we did well and what we may need to improve upon."
The Justice Department draft report, which covers actions over the 17 days following the shooting, found that police lacked effective protocols, were not adequately trained, struggled with communication and coordination, and made mistakes that sometimes heightened tensions.The use of dogs for crowd control during the Ferguson protests incited fear and anger in the crowd, according to the report, while the use of teargas on people without warning was also a problem.In addition, police were inconsistent in using force and making arrests, and some officers removed their nameplates to evade accountability for their actions, the Justice Department said.The report also criticized police for positioning snipers atop armored vehicles to monitor the crowd through rifle sights, saying the tactic "served only to exacerbate tensions."It found that law enforcement agencies set a negative tone with the media by initially offering limited public information about Brown's shooting. The report also said police inhibited protesters constitutional right to free speech.In all, the report lists 45 findings along with recommendations for improvements.It follows a separate scathing report by the Justice Department issued earlier this year that documented discriminatory actions by Ferguson police and the small community's municipal court system, which led to upheaval in the city's leadership.Ferguson Mayor James Knowles declined to comment, other than to acknowledge city officials received the draft of the report.St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said in a statement that the department was working with federal officials to ensure the accuracy of the report.There was no comment from the highway patrol.(Reporting by Carey Gillam in Kansas City; Editing by Doina Chiacu and Eric Beech)
