Breaking News Alerts! News Alert # 3 ~~~~~~~~~~ Editor's Note: In case you're wondering, News Alert # 3 is indeed, a Real News Alert, as Tongue-in-Cheek as it may seem while you read it. For our new readers, we call this "humor." Others call it the "Last Desperate Act of Defiance!" Remember always that this particular, annual event, always culminates with a Threat of Lawsuit. Just F.Y.I. !!! ~~~~~ Brett J. Scolari, Esq., Devoured by Wild Ravenous Dogs!
~~~~~ "I could just go on all night, but I think I'll just stop right here..." ~ Ed. ~~~~~ We are now in receipt and have signed for the letter from the Jones Vargas Law Firm, and as we previously indicated, SO-SO (Same Ol' Same Ol'), as seen above. The letter comes from John P. Sande IV and this is to let you know ~ and I do hate to write letters of this nature but here it goes: "Dear John," <rimshot!> I would like you to know that we are in receipt of your letter and the little green card with even teenier-tinier little certificated numbers is now on its way back to you. As badly as she wanted to sign it, my legal Secretary ~ "F. Hugh" ~ could not be permitted to do so because she was enjoying the moment too much. You know, like Meg Ryan... Also, you have not responded to our initial demand prior to your letters of discrimination, along with our annual demands since, for the Public Record and we once again make demand that you open the Public Record at the RARA, the RARF and the AAWC, for our inspection. This demand began in 2001 with RARA, has expanded to the other maladjusted organizations and has continued through present day. As we have a case filed in Federal Court, we will proceed with our response there as we expand the list of Defendants and pursue the necessary Motions to bring all you Jones Vargas types to Justice. We will make formal demand for said Public Records inspection in that venue. Needless to say, in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and now 2008, we have all along, and still do, dissent with you/your/other Law Firms' client's opinion and misconduct, as a violation of our First Amendment Rights and as discriminatory towards Veterans and Disabled Veterans, among others. There is also the issue of your Law Firm, State Senator Raggio, RARA and others, committing Major Fraud against the Government of the United States, The People and their Treasury. We also continue our demand to have State Senator Raggio himself instruct two Grand Juries to reveal whether or not he did indeed rape that seventeen-year-old girl back in the day (after plying her with drinks) when he oversaw the District Attorney's Office ~ this at a time when Nevada, of all States, had segregated "Whites Only" Drinking Fountains, Segregated Schools and had its Law Enforcement Officers instructing African American families on one side of the Nevada border that "You can enter, but dont' stop ~ keep on driving until you reach the other side." In particular, if our information holds true, then we think it inappropriate that State monuments, buildings, highways, etc., are named for a Statutory Rapist instead of Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Jr., Senator Howard Cannon, et al. And then, there's the issue of that ugly sculpture (terrorism is not allowed at airports, Kingpin) of Raggio's "head" outside the Men's restroom at Cannon International Airport and the trouble people are getting into in regards to mistaking the two. Especially current and former members of the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps. Once these guys and gals see a "head," there's just no stopping them. Especially after a few beers... You'd think that women in particular, would have figured it out by now. In fact, based on Raggio and his/your friends maltreatment of women over the years, I believe "they doo, they did and will continue to doo so." We should just get some walls around the thing so that the People have some respect and privacy, so that they can scribe graffitti about Kingpin Raggio in peace and without everyone watching. Most of those watching ~ with unabated glee ~ being from RARA, RARF and the AAWC... ...and as to this "glee," certainly not for the reasons I espouse. Oh, and then there was the issue of The Kingpin's sudden religious fervor after escaping those charges involving the 17-year-old via a cover-up by the Grand Juries. How did such activities manifest themselves until closure? Prayer meetings outside the first of Joe Conforte's brothels; then committing an act of arson by burning down other people's property, especially when The Kingpin's prayers for more 17-year-olds went unanswered. Furthermore, we're concerned about Kingpin Raggio's Conflicts of Interest in working as "State Senate Majority Leader," while at the same time, working for the Jones Vargas Law Firm, which represents ohhhhh... ...the Reno Air Racing Association (RARA ~ Rhymes with "HA HA!"), the Reno Air Race Foundation (RARF ~ Rhymes with "BARF!") and the Airport Authority of Washoe County (AAWC ~ doesn't rhyme with much of anything other than "Bill the Cat" trying to cough up a hairball or two), especially since RARA and RARF have officials from the AAWC unlawfully on their Boards, in violation of the very Law The Kingpin himself enacted to create the AAWC, and that their votes to and influence over others to sell Reno Air Race racecourse land to the AAWC have Land Fraud and Conflict of Interest (to say the least) written all over them. Let's not forget that The Kingpin "founded" the AAWC... ...is considered the "Father of the AAWC." It's no wonder this "Deadbeat Dad" mandates other people to support his child! Simple case of Post Traumatic Frankenstein Disorder... ...just too damned ugly to look at or "play nice" with! We are further concerned about the fact that Jones Vargas and John P. Sande IV (now that's a fine "how-do-you-do!") are involved in lobbying for these three organizations in a Senate whose Majority Leader (Raggio) works for you, Mr. Jones & Mr. Vargas. We are concerned over the fact that State Senator Raggio is a mentor at the Bruce R. Thompson Chapter of the Nevada Inns of Court, with Conflicts of Interest inside and outside that Chapter that include Judge Connie J. Steinheimer, who "handled" my case Appeal in regards to the bogus, trumped up charges of "Misdemeanor Trespass," brought on by Deputy Police Chief (Retired) Tom Robinson, of the Reno P.D., and Mike "Mickey Da Rat" Houghton of the RARA, but somehow forgot to mention her Conflict of Interest with "The Great Rago" prior to completing her part in an entrapment effort that soon developed. Then there's the issue of State Senator Raggio's continued association with others involved in dubious activities involving Sexual Harassment and other deviate behavior, to include Joey Scolari, of Scolari's Food & Drug Company, in a major Equal Employment Opportunity Commission case filed against that organization; along with Judge Whitehead, the defrocked Justice of the Nevada Supreme Court and apparent "Party Boy" when it comes to Prostitutes and Children; plus allegations of Sexual Harassment against Mike Houghton and Joey "Da Tri Trip" Scolari (a.k.a. "The Butabi Brothers") regarding Sexual Harassment of women on the staff of RARA. And need I mention...the RICO and Civil Rights Violations committed by Houghton and others in regards to threatening my friends and associates for having "association" with me? Damages done to my business operations as a result? The fact that I haven't stopped laughing since he "went and got stupid" and how I need Personal Injury Attorneys to sue all of you for permanent damage to my smile muscles! (Bastar ~ OWW!) We will also address this issue of your discrimination against a Disabled Veteran while receiving special treatment from the Department of Defense in regards to static and flying Air Show displays, along with your maltreatment of Veterans in general. And the sanctioning of "Murder..." And now we can add negligent homicide to the mix. Need I go on? I would love to chat further but I have important business to attend to, i.e., I must go floss my cat immediately, since his dental hygiene is of great concern to me. However, I do look forward to confronting you in Court and at the Air Races in short order. Sorry to hear about Brett. I guess when you guys and gals "chew somebody's ass" it's just so much fun it's hard to stop! <g> We're still wondering if Brett's a member of the Scolari Food & Drug Company family, a member of the Board there and equally responsible for Sexual Harassment by Management and Owners of that Company, as identified by the Federal Courts who keep turning down Motions for Dismissal seemingly with the words "No way, Jose!" How interesting that you have not answered that inquiry. We will subpoena. I was just at Stead yesterday. People were happy, the ramp was filled with aircraft, the sun was shining and a gentle breeze was blowing by late afternoon. The place was like Shangri-La! Mere perfection! Therefore, where "perfection" is involved, I think it's safe to say that there was no RARA event underway and that I was not in violation ~ nor would I have been anyhow ~ of your Annual "Ode to Da Bear" that delights our souls about this same time every year. Brett was, however, late last year in not getting this to me before PRS (Pylon Rookie Seminar)... Is that why you and your fellow Jones Vargian Shysters killed and ate him!? Without ritual sacrifice beforehand? From what I hear, not even one of these letters! BTW, Loved (!) the "City of Angels" look at your new website. Or was that "Children of the Corn?" Anywho... Have a Nice Day! And I'll see you in Court! No, REALLY, this time! I'll have you know that in the past, I've been very busy! For Pete's sake, I've got eleven cats! ~ Ed P.S. Tell Attorney Morgan the "Janeane Garofalo Liberal Look" doesn't suit her very well, especially in a Law Firm headed by any "Republican" and in particular, "thee" Republican State Senate Majority Leader of Nevada. Frankly, she's not fooling anyone. I've seen her practice Law. Tell her she needs to dye her hair blonde and she'll fit right in... Final Editor's Note: "John P. Sande IV" is NOT to be confused with "Pedophile John" of the Fishlake Valley. Two different people. For example, Sande is the type of guy who represents Sexual Deviates and lobbies for them, while the other "John" is shortly going to need good representation because he is a Pedophile, as well as a long "lobby" in an institution, as that will likely be the only exercise he will get ~ outside of his prison cell. In that regard, good representation vs need, ethics prohibits me from introducing the two as the former is lacking that which is "good," and the latter's "needs" are what got him into trouble in the first place... ...though I do think they would make a nice couple!
~~~~~~~~~~ And here is the news that is humorless and that we don't like to hear: News Alert # 2 A commercial jetliner has crashed in the Sudan after veering off a runway during landing. The right engine caught fire and immediately spread to other portions of the aircraft. Though there are known survivors numbering 111 passengers and crew, initial estimates indicated up to 203 fatalities. An update since indicates a reduction in the number of casualties to 120 passengers and crew. The aircraft was an Airbus A310 twin-aisle, wide-bodied twinjet, operated by Sudan Airways, the National carrier. The following link takes you to MSNBC.Com for news and pictures on scene: Airliner Accident in the Sudan ~~~~~~~~~~ News Alert # 1 Stated (approximately) on the Civil War-era prarie while standing over the skeletal remains, complete with arrows in the upper torso region: "Somebody's sitting home back East thinking: 'Now ~ Why ~ Don't ~ He ~ Write'!?" ~
Timmons ~~~~~~~~~~ Well, it would seem that we are in receipt of another "Love Letter" from the Jones Vargas Law Firm and the Reno Air Racing Association (RARA ~ Rhymes With HA HA!), which apparently came in yesterday while I was on the road and in of all places: Stead Airport Nevada, home of the Reno National Championship "Invitational" Air Races. We have no idea at this time of writing as to what the letter has to say ~ we will pick up and sign for the letter today, and as is our tradition not to hide from service or acknowledgement of receipt of legal documents, but rather, to intentionally scan and publish "receipt" before the Return Receipt boomerangs back to its home address and sender ~ but we suspect it will be no different than other prior letters violating the First Amendment Civil Rights of ILIPS Group International, the publications we carrry under the ILIPS Banner, to include, but not limited to, Silver State News Service and The Home Pylon Group at: ...all of which are dearly in need of a serious update! <g> Our response this time will be much different than in the past...and you'd better believe, "they ain't gonna like it! " And if any of you are wondering, "Yes," it will be "Lawful as Usual" in that, abiding by the Law is far more challenging and interesting than even the most colorful acts of Civil Disobedience that one can commit to attract attention to their cause. Yesterday, we also paid a visit to the Federal Courthouse yesterday in Reno, to obtain an update on the Editor's RICO Lawsuit against RARA et al (Latin: "and all") and found nothing underway since the payment of the filing fees, therefore, we will get active this week on this case, while at the same time, remaining active on the Federal cases underway. No news is not always good news and we need to get this case underway due to ties it has with Serfoss vs Serfoss, which we attributed to recent relationships between Attorney Kelly R. Chase, Attorney Patricia D. Caferatta, the Reno City Attorney's Office and three judges, all resulting in ties save perhaps, for one Judge, between themselves and State Senator William "The Kingpin" Raggio, whom along with one of two of those Judges, are currently running for and all undeserving of "Re-election." In this "Daniels vs RARA et al," there have already been irregularities ~ very serious ones, in fact ~ however, one Judge has of his own volition, recused himself, but one other Judge needed to but failed, and a third handling the case will still need to and we are preparing Motions towards that end today. All this in order to accomplish that task of "recusal," not to mention, a change of venue back to the Las Vegas District Court, where this case belongs since the Federal District Court in Northern Nevada and all other lower "Northern" court's ties to "The Kingpin" Raggio are much too significant for any of their Judges to remain involved in these matters, per se, "Major Fraud" beyond other RICO issues, in this particular case, all of which affect the Government, The People and their Treasury, in a "big, bad, way!" This is a case in which we are not only attempting to expose Criminal Misconduct to the Federal Courts, but likewise, we are attempting to halt the imminent shutdown of the Reno Air Races, an operation taken over by Racketeers to suit their own ends, however, an event which belongs in reality to the People of the City of Reno, Nevada. In the case of Serfoss vs Serfoss, which has become entangled in Daniels vs RARA et al, and on the issue of Judge John P. Davis and "whom this man really is," we are analyzing a recent photograph taken in Public Domain by another news publication. There was an old man misidentified as representing a "Rugged Individualist" from the old West in a recent parade in which this crooked old man was leading a horse down Main Street America and placed upon the horse's rear end, was the sign indicating: "Judge John P. Davis." We appreciate, of course, the troubles in Journalism with newspapers getting their captions correct. Our publications fully appreciate the issue of misidentification or downright "Identity Theft" by certain individuals in and outside of Public Office. Unfortunately, we do not yet have the identity of the man leading the horse, nor the horse itself, but we do appreciate the positive identification of "Judge John P. Davis" as a horse's a$$. A rather big one, too, I might add. However, with all due deference to horses and horses' a$$es everywhere, we think the poor horse and its a$$ over-burdened by being named for Judge John P. Davis ~ and so insulted that suicide by the horse must be considered an imminent danger ~ that we're contemplating a call not only to the ASPCA and PETA, but to "Mr. Ed," as well. Also in regards to the most corrupt Judge in Nevada, Respondent Joan Carol Serfoss has filed an "Emergency Petition for Writ of Prohibition Alternatively Mandamus and Notice of Petition for Emergency Stay of Proceedings Pending Motion for Recusal of Judge John P. Davis for Judicial Misconduct and Bench Rulings Resulting in Plain Error," a long, fancy title, for a legal instrument telling Judge Davis and others that they are "commanded" by Federal Law to halt proceedings involving the sale of Joan Carol Serfoss' property at Lot 63, Fishlake Valley, Dyer, Nevada, and appear in Federal Court and explain "why" they shouldn't be barred from all further proceedings in the sale of the property, at which time, the Judge's failure to recuse immediately and pass the case on to the alternate Judge for 5th District will be considered in terms of "Civil Rights" violations under a Federal case previously and recently filed. This latest issue and "Emergency" filing became necessary when the Respondent Joan Carol Serfoss learned that the Judge, an Attorney and a Court Clerk ~ the latter, wife of the Esmeralda County Sheriff, whom are friends with the Serfoss family ~ were proceeding with the sale of Respondent's property despite her timely filed, "Motion for Recusal" of the Judge, included as part of a Motion for Reconsideration of the case involving fraud directed by the Court, the Officers of the Court and their friends in the Serfoss Crime Family. Filing fees have been paid in the cases of "Serfoss vs Serfoss et al" at Federal level, along with "Daniels vs Director, FBI, and the Las Vegas FBI," in regards to "Pattern of Conduct" Civil Rights violations conducted recently against Daniels by an individual identifying themselves as a Las Vegas FBI Agent. A third case is to be placed in abeyance until the FBI issue is resolved with a Motion for Extension of Time in that case. If the FBI reverses its position and pursues a criminal investigation against Dannie G. Serfoss Jr. and others for corruption, then the Civil Case would be premature at this time and could feasibly be withdrawn. It could then be filed later after resolution of the Criminal cases that should have been investigated by Las Vegas FBI and others. Otherwise, should the FBI be allowed to continue in its failure to perform its duties by Law, then the Civil Case is appropriate and we will move forward with that. We also now have the issue of Federal wiretap violations looming in all cases, i.e., the possible placement of an illegal wiretap on the phones of Editor Daniels and his family. We are pursing that information in conjunction with the case above and Serfoss vs Serfoss in particular, but more importantly, in the "Curious Case of Michael Sue Nichols." This Editor indicates "possible" in regards to "illegality" in that the wiretap may have come about as a result of a lawful Federal Order, which we are investigating at this time. Otherwise, we know that a wiretap has been placed, information has been received and disseminated by adversarial parties that could only have come from a wiretap, we have a very strong suspect in regards to electronic "dirty tricks" here in the Valley, illegal wiretaps have been previously found in the Valley, and we will seek prosecution of and maximum punishment for anyone found to have been involved in the placement of a known wiretap on our lines. In the meantime, those lines are disconnected and will remain so permanently. All contact with ILIPS Group International must be in writing until further notice due to this apparent abuse of Federal Laws on the subject of Wiretapping. Frankly, the Feds are the types who would just come up and ask for whatever information they needed from us, but there is that pesky "First Amendment" issue by which we could refuse them, even if it meant rotting in jail. And speaking for myself as an Editor, I would rather rot in a jail than reveal a source. "The Public's Right To Know" information coming from controversial or underground sources ~ as it affects the Public's very Freedoms ~ is absolute, protected by Law and the Bill of Rights, and yet, under siege by Law. At SSNS, we never reveal sources without their advanced permission. The source chooses "if and when," or "if ever," their information and identities are to be revealed. Also, though we live in a "Limited Democracy," "Freedom" as a word and meaning, is absolute. "Limited Democracy" is a repugnant oxymoron and so too, would the term "Limited Freedom" be. That is the position of the Publisher, Editor, along with each and every one of his publications. In that regard, we have recently been accused of "implying guilt" by erasing names and/or other information from documents we receive. At ILIPS Group International, we erase names to protect the innocent. Those names we erase from a document we either consider to be innocent, innocent victims, or potential innocent victims of the crimes of others, and in need of a degree of protection. However, all documents are otherwise "required" by Law and Journalistic ethics to be verbatim in our presentation of the same. We have reviewed the "offending" materials and find no such implications of "guilt" by parties whose names are erased solely for the purpose of "protecting the innocent" and frankly ~ in this case ~ that we're not investigating in the first place. Basic rule of thumb: we are "Alternative Press," not "Mainstream Press." All mentioned in this publication are "innocent until proven guilty" by a Court of Law, and if we are erasing their names, it's for one of two reasons: 1) They are a source requesting and receiving anonymity, or... 2) We are unconcerned with them and therefore, not investigating them, as was the case in the documents cited. There are these additional issues beyond those first two: 3) If we come to the conclusion that you're "guilty" of something, we're going to splash your name all over the page, not erase it. 4) Documents not of our making and "naming names" are edited as necessary to protect the innocent, not implicate them, but we have no control if your name falls off the lips of someone involved in misconduct themselves, or appears on one of their documents. We must present their document in its entirety, save, for this control we do have: ...the removal of names to protect the innocent from this very appearance of "implication." Therefore, we go out of our way to remove names and other identifying information. 5) We do this because our audience is the World-at-Large, not just your "local hometown." And in a "rural" community, don't fool yourselves ~ these people are not "rubes" nor "hicks" and they already know your business better than you do. 6) Our responsibility here in the United States under the First Amendment is to the "Public's Right to Know." We at ILIPS Group International are part of the "Public's Right" to a Free and otherwise "uncensored" Press. Where people on foreign shores are affected by the actions of Americans, we extend First Amendment protections and responsibility to them, too, even though our Government may not. All People around the World have a right to know about Crime that either affects them or specifically targets them for harm, or could harm them at some future date. 7) In regards to item 6), we will not in the future, nor would we ever, reveal classified U.S. Government and/or Military information knowingly and with deliberate intent. Journalism is our job, Diplomacy is the job of the United States Government. Truth and Freedoms guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, are our "beat;" National Security belongs to the Government and is merely something we cover as "News," only. We will fight for the release of information that is legitimate "News," however, we will not take it upon ourselves to release National Security information without proper authority, i.e., U.S. Law and a Court of Federal Jurisdiction citing the same in its "approval." Even then, we must wait while opposing Counsel conducts all his/her appeals. 8) If you are not a U.S. Citizen and wish to know what the United States Government knows, go through Diplomatic channels and ask them, not us. For all others, use the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and if that fails, or if you are deliberately denied information, you can file an FOIA case in Federal Court and force the release of information, if such information is deemed "safe" to release by those in Law concerned with National Security. 9) Our primary purpose at this publication ~ as with all our State News Services ~ is to expose crime and corruption. If you have any fears as to association or implications regarding you and the criminal element, then you might concern yourself with distancing yourself from the criminal element, or ending any association with the criminal element and even going as far as to reporting their crimes yourselves. Barring the latter in Item 9): 10) Let us in Journalism do our collective job. We have enough interference from the criminal element and their pocketed "Law Doggies" in Corporate Law, Law Enforcement and the Courts. There are many more filings to take place...work begins anew on those issues today. Much news to report! And we will be publishing that Jones Vargas letter, so stay tuned for installment 2 of this Breaking News Alert at Silver State News Service, an Alternative Source For News and a publication with a mind of its own... ~ Ed. |
