History Occurs in Repeated Cycles because they are Managed
History goes in cycles because they are being managed! People went from believing one thing, then they'll go to the other, and this cycle continues in faster and faster cycles until everyone who has the tendency to hold on to anything is flung off!
This literally occurs in the same way some information will threaten people's conceptual limitations.
Reality does the same! Everything reflects into itself. We are all being tested and will continue to be tested until only those remain who are willing to let go of all misconceptions to find the truth of reality.
The Dream World and Programming
The DREAM-WORLD is the key to PROGRAMMING the mind. Deprogramming is a thing, if you didn't know…
Is Genuine Intelligence Possible? What does it look like?
Here's a question, does true intelligence exist (in our domain) or is everything at this level artificial? If true intelligence does exist, then where does that intelligence lead in respect to the larger view of the universe?
Is it possible to have an intelligent *anything* at this level and that be genuine and not artificially intelligent?
Belief Determines Reality
I'm telling you, they found out what you believe dictates or maybe, runs the parameter set for your REALITY. Why do you think there is such a heavy emphasis on WHAT YOU BELIEVE?
Prepare. See this is in the works.
See this is being set up for what is coming.
And BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF and a SOCIETY that can do the same.
The Deus Ex Machina
The idea is, what saves you CANNOT come from the future. That would break the temporal equilibrium, you MUST create your Deus Ex Machina in the here and now.

Hydrology of Eagle Creek Basin and effects of groundwater pumping on streamflow, 1969-2009
Scientific Investigations Report 2010-5205
In cooperation with the Village of Ruidoso, New Mexico

Urban and resort development and drought conditions have placed increasing demands on the surface-water and groundwater resources of the Eagle Creek Basin, in southcentral New Mexico. The Village of Ruidoso, New Mexico, obtains 60-70 percent of its water from the Eagle Creek Basin. The village drilled four production wells on Forest Service land along North Fork Eagle Creek; three of the four wells were put into service in 1988 and remain in use. Local citizens have raised questions as to the effects of North Fork well pumping on flow in Eagle Creek. In response to these concerns, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Village of Ruidoso, conducted a hydrologic investigation from 2007 through 2009 of the potential effect of the North Fork well field on streamflow in North Fork Eagle Creek. Mean annual precipitation for the period of record (1942-2008) at the Ruidoso climate station is 22.21 inches per year with a range from 12.27 inches in 1970 to 34.81 inches in 1965. Base-flow analysis indicates that the 1970-80 mean annual discharge, direct runoff, and base flow were 2,260, 1,440, and 819 acre-ft/yr, respectively, and for 1989-2008 were 1,290, 871, and 417 acre-ft/yr, respectively. These results indicate that mean annual discharge, direct runoff, and base flow were less during the 1989-2008 period than during the 1970-80 period. Mean annual precipitation volume for the study area was estimated to be 12,200 acre-feet. Estimated annual evapotranspiration for the study area ranged from 8,730 to 8,890 acre-feet. Estimated annual basin yield for the study area was 3,390 acre-ft or about 28 percent of precipitation. On the basis of basin-yield computations, annual recharge was estimated to be 1,950 acre-ft, about 16 percent of precipitation. Using a chloride mass-balance method, groundwater recharge over the study area was estimated to average 490 acre-ft, about 4.0 percent of precipitation. Because the North Fork wells began pumping in 1988, 1969-80 represents the pre-groundwater-pumping period, and 1988-2009 represents the groundwater-pumping period. The 5-year moving average for precipitation at the Ruidoso climate station shows years of below-average precipitation during both time periods, but no days of zero flow were recorded for the 11-year period 1970-80 and no-flow days were recorded in 11 of 20 years for the 1988-2009 period.

This is a guest post by Jenny from jennyedencoaching.com. Jenny is a health and Eating Psychology Coach – and this is one lady who truly understands the importance of living life intentionally. Creating good habits, recognizing and ditching bad habits is her thing! If an area that you struggle with is food (and ummmm, which of us doesn't from time to time?) then be sure to grab her free mindful eating tips worksheet at the end of the post – and check out her blog www.jennyedencoaching.com for great advice on getting it together when it comes to how we feel about our bodies, our relationship with food, and more on-purpose-living.
4 Non-dietary cleanses – (how to detox your life and enhance your health)
Cleanses and detoxes have been all the rage in the last 10 years. Whether it's a post-holidays indulgence juice-cleanse or a colon detox, the idea of a cleanse or detox is to remove toxins from your body and start anew.
The problem with detoxes, however, from my perspective, is that there is often no exit plan, and when this short lived detox is complete, we are faced with a world of food choices with no compass or blueprint to guide us. In addition, cleanses and detoxes also force upon us this idea of "white knuckling" our way through our day feeling starving, deprived and unsatisfied and using willpower and sheer determination to get us through.
As an Eating Psychology Coach, I have found that it's this very sequence of binge-remorse-cleanse-restrict that has us feeling like we need a cleanse in the first place! I work with clients all the time to find balance and pleasure in their lives with respect to food and exercise. This way, we prevent the uncomfortable polarities of being in full-on indulgence/binge mode and cleansing/restrict mode. From this place of balance, we can truly start to tune in and give our bodies what it needs and what makes it feel energized, healthy and strong for the long haul.
The 4 cleanses I will talk about below are non-dietary in nature but can prove powerful in helping one feel healthy, renewed and "detoxed" both physically and mentally.
I am a huge proponent of yoga. I will admit, as a former over-exerciser, I used to hate it because it clearly didn't burn enough calories to make it worth it! It wasn't until I gave it a real shot when I realized just how powerful yoga is for body, mind and soul. I especially enjoy hot yoga because I can be very present to the environment and it's affect on my body and also get a really amazing sweat sesh on.
Several poses in yoga specifically target massaging and activating your liver for a natural detox. In the seated twist, for instance, I can literally feel toxins being dumped from my liver (kidding, but it's close! I do feel little twinges). Other poses, such as in supine twist or in any inversion pose like a plow or headstand, you are bringing oxygen rich blood right to your brain for a short period of time to enhance our mental functioning and well-being. You are also filtering your lymph nodes. Check out this site for more information about how yoga detoxifies and other postures that help cleanse. Remember, there are many types of yoga and for all levels – like with any new exercise plan, you'll want to consult with your physician before starting.
House & living space detox
Have you ever tried to sit down to do a project and feel like your brain is cluttered because your home space is cluttered? This happens to me all the time. I feel like I can't even cook dinner until all the current dishes are clean and the kitchen is tidy and organized. Seems silly but many of us thrive on organization and a pristine space.
Easier said than done, I know. With 3 little girls running around my house, it feels almost insurmountable at times. But, taking even just a few moments to declutter and organize your space can do a lot for your productivity, your industriousness and sense of well-being. Cluttered space = cluttered brain. Detoxified space = Tabula Rosa.
Detoxing the house can also mean other things. Have you checked for mold in the home? Had a co2 detector installed? Have your painted walls examined for lead? These are powerful ways that we can detox in a simple and easy way.
Ditching toxic people in your life
As mammals we need community and people in our lives. We are not a "go it alone" species and we rely on people every day to help support us, lift us up, and to collaborate with to thrive. However, in our pursuit for connection, community and friendships, we sometimes end up befriending people who actually do the opposite for you. They are a time suck, they are critical or unsupportive or perhaps even abusive. One way of detoxing is to try to remove those people from our lives and pursue healthy, equitable and uplifting friendships and relationships.
How do you know when someone is an energy-sucker rather than a 'swiffer-picker upper"? Tune in after you've spent time with someone. Do you feel happy, energized and hopeful? Or rather, do you feel stressed out, fatigued and anxious?
Have an input day
What do I mean by that? Well, we are a hugely output society. We look to produce and do and give and talk and accomplish, ALL THE TIME. When we are harried and stressed and rushed and, well, outputting all the time, we are more apt to take in environmental toxins, lower our immunity and are more susceptible to disease and malaise. The remedy for this? Allow for input days. They do not feel as productive, for sure, but they are powerful in girding us and preparing for those inevitable output days.
Examples of input days include: reading, meditating, writing, resting, listening. You might not even be able to pull off a whole input day but what about an input hour? Even an input minute to stop, breathe, take in, get grounded and connect with self. From my experience, having these input moments make me feel more cleansed than any food detox could ever do for me.
Other non-dietary cleanses: Being in nature, nurturing or honing a craft or hobby, taking a bath, getting a massage, getting a facial or body wrap / acupuncture.
What are some non-dietary ways that you have detoxed and cleansed before? Would love to add to my arsenal of tools. Sound off below!

It's Masters week, the best, most exciting week in sports by a mile.
To get you excited, here's a great two sentence snapshot of the relationship between Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods from Robert Lusetich at Fox Sports.
Lusetich wants to see a Mickelson-Woods duel on Sunday in Augusta. In a column on their relationship he drops this:
Once, at the Masters, when Mickelson watched his rival [Tiger] hit a three-wood past his driver, he asked Woods if he always hit fairway woods so far.
"No," said Woods, pulling his tee from the ground before marching down the fairway, "Sometimes further."
This is one of those bits that's almost hard to believe. But it does encapsulate both men. Phil being earnest. Tiger being chilly and arrogant.

Clunes Wastewater Strategy
Client: Lismore City Council and the Department of Services, Technology and Administration
The northern NSW village of Clunes has about 250 dwellings nestled along a ridgeline in prime agricultural country. Like many villages, each household has an on-site wastewater treatment system, with treated effluent dispersed via sub-surface trenches in each backyard.
Poor performance of many on-site wastewater management systems is creating unacceptable public health and environmental risks, prompting the local council to investigate alternative wastewater management strategies.
Over a number of years, GeoLINK has worked with Lismore City Council to assess wastewater management options including upgraded on-site systems, a centralised traditional STP or wetland, agricultural reuse, urban reuse, and various collection and transportation options; consult with local residents, state government agencies and other stakeholders to resolve a preferred strategy.
This included the coordination of a wastewater committee and the organisation of an innovative 'Enquiry by Design' workshop; undertake environmental assessments associated with the options and coordinate specialist sub-consultants; and prepare a concept design for the preferred strategy.

Peterborough City Council is to adopt powers to take action against vehicles which are causing a hazard by either double parking or parking in front of dropped kerbs.
With effect from March 1 2018, the Prevention and Enforcement Service parking team may issue a penalty charge notice (PCN) to any vehicle found to be in contravention of obstructing crossing points or driveways.
The city council has these powers under sections 85 and 86 of the Traffic Management Act 2004.
Councillor Irene Walsh, cabinet member for communities, said: "We have decided to introduce this enforcement now following an increasing number of requests from residents to say these parking contraventions are taking place and causing a hazard, often outside schools.
"The introduction is to help prevent inconsiderate and selfish parking which causes inconvenience to property owners and compromises road safety."
Double parking
If a vehicle is parked more than 50cm from the kerb it can create a hazard and is classed as being double parked. This usually happens when a vehicle parks to the side of another parked vehicle, such that it is left in the middle of the road.
Dropped kerbs
A vehicle must not be parked on the carriageway adjacent to a footway, cycle track or verge where it has been lowered to assist pedestrians crossing or wheelchair users, or cyclists and motorists entering or leaving the carriageway.
Exceptions to this do apply, for example for emergency service vehicles and waste collection. Also for where the dropped kerb gives access to a resident's off street parking area and parking here is with the permission of the property owner. For this reason, enforcement action will only be taken when it is requested by the owner as they have not given permission for parking here.
The penalty for these contraventions is set at £70. If payment is made within 14 days a 50 per cent discount is applied. There will be a two week period prior to the go live in March where warning tickets will be issued with no fine imposed.
Unlike other parking contraventions, there is no requirement to place traffic signs or road markings where enforcement of these prohibitions will take place, as all Peterborough roads are covered in a special enforcement area. Blue Badge holders are not exempt from either of these contraventions.
To report a vehicle parked against a dropped kerb or double parked please phone 01733 747474 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Monday, April 30, 2012
The excitement led to two days of Pickmore Place Mini-Stick Cup play, which led to a few broken mini-sticks, some allegations of cheating, scratched hardwood floors and the usual trash talk.
There was also lots of street hockey. The cul-de-sac was full of white and blue jerseys as the aspiring Mark Flood, Paul Postma, Carl Klingberg and Jason Jaffray's played their hearts out.
The big bonus came on Sunday, when uncle Mike called to invite the boys, and their buddies, up to Cougar Helicopter's Office to meet the entire team for a meet, greet and autograph session.
Now the the blue and white jerseys, mini-sticks and hats are covered in signatures and mounted on their bedroom walls. I gather they are no longer for play!
Pictures to follow!
The St. John's IceCaps have announced the full schedule for their best-of-seven Eastern Conference Semifinal series.
The IceCaps will face the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins in the second round of the 2012 Calder Cup Playoffs after defeating the Syracuse Crunch three games to one in their best-of-five quarterfinal series.
The next game will be held at Mile One Centre at 7:30 pm NDT

Fleurs de Bach 01 Agrimony 20ml
Manufacturer: Fleurs de Bach
Regular Price: was £8.70
- Description
SKU: 7839496 flowers of Bach 01 Agrimony - Agrimony 20 ml
product overview:
distress hidden behind a jovial mask. People who are in need of Agrimony (Agrimony) often seem carefree and humorous but their joie de vivre mask anxieties, concerns, or even a deep inner torment that they sometimes try to disguise both other to them - same. If they experience pain or an ailment, it is likely that they joke in, reluctant to express their real fears. Very sociable, they don't like being alone and are looking for the company to get distracted. They try to ignore the bad side of life and prefer to take things lightly, rather than get into disputes. Tormented thoughts sometimes act their sleep.
These people can sometimes suppress their discomfort by abusing alcohol or drugs, or comforting with food. The positive potential of Agrimony applies to those who are really in a good mood and whose company is nice. They communicate frankly their true feelings and accept that life is not only good sides. Their good mood is now explained by a true sense of inner joy and the fact that they accept as they are, they see problems in their context and are very diplomatic mediation. Account drops of 20 ml. Net volume: 20 ml.
operating tips:
2 drops in a glass of water or on the language 4 times per day. Do not exceed the specified daily dose.

At the beginning of October the 11th edition of CinEast Festival will begin in Luxemburg. Three Polish shorts were invited to the competition.
CinEast Central and Eastern European Film Festival every year presents the latest and most interesting films from 20 Central and Eastern European countries. The audience of the 18-day-long festival will be able to see over 60 feature films and around 40 short ones. In the program, apart from documentaries, shorts and animations, one can find concerts, meetings with the invited guests, exhibitions and debates.
This year three Polish productions were invited to the short film competition: fiction film "Heimat" by Emi Buchwald and animations "III" by Marta Pajek and "Bless You!" by Paulina Ziółkowska.
"Heimat" tells a story of five members of a quite specific family, who meet at the police station in a small town. Three grown-up children have to testify against a man who beat up their father. The incident took place at the same time when the youngest daughter, 20-year-old Nastka, moved out and left the parents by themselves.
Marta Pajek's animation, produced by Animoon, is the third part of the "Impossible Figures and Other Stories" triptych. It is a portrait of a woman in an uneasy and exhausting relation with a man, which pulls closer and pushes away with the same strength.
Film "Bless You!" was produced by the Łódź Film School. "Bless You!" tells a story of a group of people waiting at the bus stop on a sunny day. Suddenly more and more of them start to sneeze. The epidemic breaks out. However, in the midst of the sneezing chaos, it turns out that the worst thing you can do is to get sick of yourself.
More information about the festival can be found here.

This dll currently has 460 functions.
See the function list at the (link removed) .
The control events are checked with a function called API_Check_Command.
You don't have to check each control with a separate function call thanks to this.
Each control has a Control ID instead of window handles in behave of the command checking and memory allocation, but this can be converted back to a window handle handle if you would need that.
Almost every control has style flags, to make them highly custimizable.

Fast Window Shaping
Using the included program "RegioMaker" you can convert bitmaps to region files, which are loaded directly into the memory (shaping windows with bitmaps is usually slow).
Support for bitmaps is still included though.
Styling functions (only for control types where it's pratical)
Improved styling enables control transparency for controls placed on tab controls, control transparency for windows with a background image, control tranparency for the game window (if you use screen_save_part to get the background image).
You can also use background colors or background bitmaps on a control or create background gradients using drawing and graphic buffers.
Font aliasing
Enable font aliasing for controls, like truetype does. (will be put in the example soon)
Graphic buffers
Dynamically generate bitmaps in the memory which enable you to draw stuff on things like system tray icons.
Drawing functions
The drawing functions can be used on graphic buffers to draw text and shapes and gradients.
Drawing system
The drawing system enables you to draw stuff on a WinAPI window.
The DLL supports dialogs to open files, input strings and numbers and support message boxes.
MDI support
Use Windows MDI to create a Multiple Document Interface application.
Resource handling
By giving resources like bitmaps handles, you don't have to load the same bitmap double into the memory.
Many functions, like the graphic buffers, will need some good examples to be understandable, so I will build an example system in my site later on.

Companion column: Pit bulls responsible for disproportionate number of attacks
Pit bulls and related breeds of dog are frequently called dangerous, an assertion others call misguided. The U.S. Marine Corps recently issued an order banning pit bulls, Rottweilers and wolf-hybrid breeds and mixes on its bases, including Camp Pendleton and Miramar Marine Corps Air Station by October 2012. The Marine Corps said it made the decision, after reviewing statistics on its bases and national numbers, to "ensure the continued health and safety" of base residents.
When we adopted our first pit bull in 2005, his sweet personality and love of people, especially children, quickly won us over. Still, acquaintances made comments such as, "You should put him down before he turns on you." That same hysteria has caused hundreds of cities, the Army and now the Marine Corps to ban the breed using misguided policies that negatively impact thousands of pit bulls and families, including 190 dogs here at Camp Pendleton.
Breed-specific legislation is expensive to enforce and ineffective because it doesn't address the real problem: irresponsible owners. The Netherlands banned pit bulls in 1993 but lifted the ban when bite rates were not reduced. Because breed-specific legislation doesn't work, it is opposed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the
How did the witch hunt on pit bulls start? Historically, most pit bulls were All-American family dogs (think "The Little Rascals"). Even as recently as the period from 1966 to 1975, nationwide there was only one documented case of a fatal attack by a pit bull-type dog. Things began to change in the 1980s as the media focused on dog fighting – reporting fallacies, such as pit bulls not feeling pain, and purportedly having locking, or stronger, jaws than other large breeds. This negative attention increased their popularity among owners wanting the breed for the wrong reasons, and pit bull numbers soared.
Bite rates by breed change over time depending on which breeds are popular as guard dogs or for presenting a tough image. Bloodhounds were called bloodthirsty savages back in the 1800s when they were used for tracking humans and as guard dogs. Great Danes were reportedly responsible for the most fatalities 30 years ago. People now target the pit bull using bite "statistics" culled largely from the media, which often report pit bull incidents while ignoring those by other breeds.
In addition, the CDC's bite "data" acknowledges breed identification is highly subjective. (Note the term "pit bull" includes American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers and Staffordshire Bull Terriers). Pitbullsontheweb.com's "Find the Pit Bull" test shows more than 20 breeds that are commonly mistaken for pit bulls.
The risk dogs pose is also exaggerated. You are five times more likely to be killed by lightning than by any dog.
Whether a dog bites depends on how it's kept and treated, not its breed. Dogs that bite tend to be unrestrained, not spayed or neutered and not indoor members of the family – all issues of owner responsibility.
Yes, when a breed becomes popular for the wrong reasons, problems result. But effective solutions deal with the root of the problem: people. No dog should be allowed to roam in the streets. People whose dogs bite should be held responsible; leash and license laws should be enforced; and dog abusers should receive stiffer penalties.
Pit bulls naturally have excellent temperaments, with higher pass rates on the American Temperament Test than most other breeds. My second adopted pit bull is a therapy dog at nursing homes. No breed of dog, just like no race of people, is inherently evil. Put the responsibility on the owners, where it belongs. And get to know some pit bulls before condemning the entire breed.
Myers, an Oceanside resident, is the spokeswoman for Pit Bull Rescue San Diego.

A while back I had a Twitter discussion with a few smart Minnesota based marketers, @cbensen, @albertmaruggi and @bestbuyCMO about the importance of customer service and community building that turned to a variety of ancillary benefits. Connie mentioned that community building is a long term investment that continues to pay dividends. Albert pointed out that SEO & community building can be 2 separate tactics with SEO having nothing to do with community. Barry wanted more of an explanation, which motivated this long overdue post.
An increasing number community managers have become visible within social media sites like Twitter, on blogs and Facebook from various sized companies. We've even interviewed people with those types of responsibilities from Dell and Comcast. I've been thinking about how the content creation and outreach efforts of a community manager can also be of benefit to an organization's search engine optimization efforts.
My opinion is that it would actually take extra effort to make community building work and not realize the positive effects for SEO. Many search engine optimization consultants that engage social media channels have noticed how their efforts resulted in community building effects. Building up profiles on various social media sites and participating in communities to share and promote content attract links, but it also builds trust.
It makes perfect sense for off page SEO efforts to involve community building but as @TysonFoods mentioned recently, the best person to work in that capacity is a someone within the company, not an agency. That is a topic for another post though.
Community building with SEO effects in mind isn't so different than Public Relations or Interactive Marketing with SEO in mind. Content + links = better search visibility. That's simplifying things a bit, but you can get more search engine optimization basics here.
Community building with SEO benefits typically involves:
- Monitoring brand terms as well as keywords important to the organization using a social media monitoring tool
- Create content and interaction destinations: blogs, social profiles
- Content with unique urls can be linked to
- Content that is optimized with keywords and proper IA is good for search engines and good for users
- Content that is relevant and useful will attract links from those empowered to publish (bloggers, blog commenters, forums, consumer reviews, consumer generated content such as images, video, audio)
Social media monitoring is keyword based as is SEO. Socia media monitoring counts links and SEO builds links. Encouraging or "energizing" evangelists of a brand also builds content ala CGM and attracts links. Some of those links go directly to the evangelists' own content and some will go to the brand itself. Search engines discover and follow these links and when factoring in context and keywords used, will use that information when sorting documents in search results. ie, Content + links = better search visibility.
My question for community managers is, are you leveraging any SEO keyword research and insight to assist word choice when building profiles, creating content and outreach online? I would not suggest any kind of overt keyword usage that wouldn't otherwise make sense, but becoming better informed about keywords in a search context can add to the bottom line results of your efforts. And in this economy, who doesn't want to show more value for their efforts?

Notes From HPSBY Herschel Smith
5 years, 6 months ago
As I asked many years back, during the reign of another president who rivaled our current one in his fear and despising of an armed citizenry, has not despotism and mass destruction plagued every civilization that preceded ours? Is it not, in fact, still commonplace throughout the globe? By what suspension of reality, by what denial of the observable and the probable, by what art, device or magic are we sheltered few immune from catastrophe? Are we certain, from our brief and privileged vantage point, that such things will ever remain headline curiosities? Is it not just plain stupid to proclaim that our familiar way of life will forever be the norm, when everything that has gone before us shows we are, instead, the extremely lucky beneficiaries of a rare and fortunate convergence of circumstances; and one, by the way, that has only been preserved under force of arms?
This is poetic prose worthy of the best authors. And while I don't believe in luck, I agree with David (who is speaking tongue in cheek here). "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." The heart of man is "deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked" (Jeremiah 17:9). And that's why we should expect totalitarianism. Because it's the state to which evil man aspires.
There cannot fail to be consequences from the discovery on the part of every parent in America that the government's hired muscle can kick down their doors, set their children on fire, and the official response will be a shrug, and maybe an "oops."
Inevitably, some parents will refuse to tolerate the intolerable. Some, even knowing the vanishingly small likelihood of their own survival, will fight back with every weapon they possess. Private citizens defending their homes and families will doubtless do the bulk of the dying, but they will not do all of it.
The Posse Comitatus Act is a vital law, but as the police themselves morph more and more aggressively into an occupying army, it is quickly losing relevance.
Kurt is saying what I've said before. The militarization of police is a work-around of the law. And don't think for a minute that the founders would have any more approved of it than they did of the requirement to quarter troops.
So we know who this outdated move is pointed at, don't we? And it has nothing to do with Jihadis, "homegrown" or otherwise. A cynic might say that given the Bergdahl swap and the unilateral disengagement from any pretense of fighting the Jihadis overseas that you are simply trying to assure full employment for armed federal bureaucrats, much as the repeal of Prohibition led to the transfer of Treasury agents to enforce the subsequent National Firearms Act. Dragon slayers need dragons to frighten the villagers into paying them for the privilege of full employment, no matter how obvious, ridiculous and hackneyed the lies are.
This is also poetic writing by Mike. He is much more patient with his official letters than I seem to be able to pull off. I just utter that "Holder is a servant of Satan" and leave it at that. But you need to see just how Holder is a servant of Satan, and so visit Mike's place and study his letter.
Via WRSA, Tyler Durden:
The masses are being plundered on a scale which is inconceivable and unmatched in history; it is the source of the middle classes dying in the developed world. The developed world has become a well-disguised plantation of serfs and slaves. They are given nothing to store and save their labor in as the currency they hold are printed endlessly and have no reserves to back them and are redeemable in NOTHING, contrary to every sound currency in history. Modern day money is nothing less than a wealth confiscation scheme run by morally and fiscally bankrupt central banks and governments against their own citizens.
And thus does God disapprove of it, and thus will it fail. Be prepared.

Entertainment For Any Occasion
Cossackshow is a London based Russian/Ukrainian folk dance collective, which was born in 2008. Since then it has been successfully led by artist and choreographer of Ensemble of National Dance of Ukraine, Sergey Yatskevych, who graduated from National Academy of Dance of Ukraine in 1984. Years of experience and a successful dancing career took him to numerous Eastern and Western European countries including France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Switzerland and the UK.
Following successful progression and expansion, Cossackshow was then joined by yet another extremely successful choreographer in 2012, Ludmila Nikolova, who graduated from Saint Petersburg University of Arts in 1998. Both choreographers managed and trained the group successfully resulting in Cossackshow gaining a strong reputation and brand name and allowing the group to showcase and share their vibrant performances with audiences all over UK and Western Europe.. Under the supervision of the two choreographers, Cossackshow are continuously working on their ever-expanding repertoire of dance, acrobatic techniques, and new explorative ideas. Cossackshow also run a school for children and adults and always welcome new talent!

When discussing his amazingness, Newt Gingrich sometimes exaggerates somewhat, as when, discussing Bosnia and Washington, D.C., street violence, he said, "People like me are what stand between us and Auschwitz." (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jan. 16, 1994). What primarily stands between us and misrule, however, is the Constitution, buttressed by an independent judiciary.
But Gingrich's hunger for distinction has surely been slaked by his full-throated attack on such a judiciary. He is the first presidential candidate to propose a thorough assault on the rule of law. That is the meaning of his vow to break courts to the saddle of politicians, particularly to members of Congress, who rarely even read the laws they pass.
Gingrich's most lurid evidence that courts are "grotesquely dictatorial" is a Texas judge's aggressive decision concerning religious observances at high school functions, a decision a higher court promptly (and dictatorially?) overturned. Gingrich's epiphany about judicial tyranny occurred in 2002, when a circuit court ruled unconstitutional the Pledge of Allegiance phrase declaring America a nation "under God." Gingrich likened this to the 1857 Dred Scott decision that led to 625,000 Civil War dead. The Supreme Court unanimously overturned the circuit court's "under God" nonsense. So, Gingrich is happy? Not exactly. He warns that calling the Supreme Court supreme amounts to embracing "oligarchy."
He says the Founders considered the judiciary the "weakest" branch. Not exactly. Alexander Hamilton called the judiciary the "least dangerous" branch (Federalist 78) because, wielding neither the sword nor the purse, its power resides solely in persuasive "judgment." That, however, is not weakness but strength based on the public's respect for public reasoning. Gingrich yearns to shatter that respect and trump such reasoning with raw political power, in the name of majoritarianism.
Judicial deference to majorities can, however, be a dereliction of the judicial duty to oppose actions irreconcilable with constitutional limits on what majorities may do. Gingrich's campaign against courts repudiates contemporary conservatism's core commitment to limited government.
To teach courts the virtue of modesty, President Gingrich would attempt to abolish some courts and to impeach judges whose decisions annoy him -- decisions he says he might ignore while urging Congress to do likewise. He favors compelling judges to appear before Congress to justify decisions "out of sync" with majorities, and would sic police or marshals on judges who resist congressional coercion. Never mind that judges always explain themselves in written opinions, concurrences and dissents.
Gingrich's unsurprising descent into sinister radicalism -- intimidation of courts -- is redundant evidence that he is not merely the least conservative candidate, he is thoroughly anti-conservative. He disdains the central conservative virtue, prudence, and exemplifies progressivism's defining attribute -- impatience with impediments to the political branches' wielding of untrammeled power. He exalts the will of the majority of the moment, at least as he, tribune of the vox populi, interprets it.
Atop the Republican ticket, Gingrich would guarantee President Obama's re-election, would probably doom Republicans' hopes of capturing the Senate and might cost them control of the House. If so, Gingrich would at last have achieved something -- wreckage, but something -- proportional to his swollen sense of himself.

Is Keto The Best Diet For Tackling Inflammation Once & For All?
Our world has undergone rapid change over a relatively short period of time. Our food supply, water supply, the soil we farm on, and air we breathe are all changing and creating new challenges for our health. In many cases, our bodies react to these conditions by developing chronic, systemic inflammation.
Knowing this, it might not surprise you to learn that chronic, systemic inflammation is the root cause of almost all health problems. When you dive deeply into the etiology of various illnesses—like anxiety, depression, fatigue, heart disease, or autoimmune conditions—the roads all lead back to inflammation.
But inflammation is not inherently harmful. In fact, it's an essential part of our immune function. We need inflammation to fight infection and to heal. Without the ability to generate a healthy inflammatory response, we would die. When inflammation runs wild, though, it can be a core component of many of the diseases we face today, especially autoimmune diseases. As with everything in the body, healthy inflammation is all about balance.
Chronic inflammation and autoimmunity is becoming more and more common.
To date, there are close to 100 recognized autoimmune diseases, and an additional 40 that bear an autoimmune component. This number will certainly rise as science continues to discover autoimmune components in more diseases. We live in the Age of Autoimmunity, and the more the scientific community examines this phenomenon, the clearer it becomes that autoimmunity is driven by inflammation.
Because inflammation can affect any part of the body, its manifestations can be far-reaching. Some of the most-common early-onset symptoms of inflammation include:
- Brain fog
- Anxiety
- Pain that travels throughout the body
- Gastrointestinal flare-ups
- Fatigue
In the United States alone, it's estimated that 50 million people have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. In most cases, the official diagnostic criteria are that the patient's immune system has already destroyed a significant portion of their body; for instance, a diagnosis of autoimmune adrenal issues or Addison's disease, requires 90 percent destruction of the adrenal glands. Equally sobering, major destruction of the neurological or digestive system is required for diagnosis of neurological autoimmunity (e.g., multiple sclerosis) or gut autoimmunity (e.g., celiac disease), respectively.
Autoimmune diseases and inflammation have everything to do with your lifestyle.
But the autoimmune-inflammation attack that occurs in these conditions does not develop overnight; it's the end stage event of the larger, autoimmune-inflammation spectrum. When someone is diagnosed with an autoimmune condition, they have already been experiencing autoimmune inflammation for an average of about 4 to 10 years. The focus of my functional medicine practice is on addressing the causes of inflammation before the patient reaches that end-stage level of destruction. After all: What sense is there in waiting until you have an autoimmune disease to start caring about inflammation? Especially when, at such a point, the only options typically offered to many people are steroids or immune-suppressing drugs? We can do much better. My practice is about taking proactive steps to tackle inflammation before it leads to something more serious.
So what can you do to fight inflammation now? Studies point to what many in functional medicine have been saying for decades: Lifestyle and diet are paramount. In fact, studies estimate that about 77 percent of immune-system reactions are determined by factors over which we have at least some control, such as our diets, stress levels, and exposure to pollutants, with the remainder determined by genetics.
How the ketogenic diet can help tackle inflammation and autoimmunity.
In my experience, the vast majority of us wield plenty of power to take control of our health by pursuing positive lifestyle interventions. Whether those changes improve our quality of life by 25 percent or 100 percent, any increase is a move in the right direction. Instead of doing the same things we always have, repeatedly, but expecting different results, we can enact positive changes. One of the most profoundly helpful lifestyle applications I have found for calming inflammation and balancing the immune system is the ketogenic diet.
The ketogenic diet does wonders for controlling mechanisms responsible for chronic inflammation. Ketones like B-hydroxybutyrate are not just a form of fuel—they're also signaling molecules and epigenetic modulators that support and create anti-inflammatory pathways. In one example, the ketones produced in nutritional ketosis up-regulate something called the Nrf2 pathway and the powerful anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10, while down-regulating pro-inflammatory cytokines. The Nrf2 pathway regulates antioxidant-gene induction and works to turn on genes responsible for antioxidant and detox pathways in addition to cell function and inflammation. When the Nrf2 pathway is functioning at optimal levels, inflammation is calmed. When levels are low, inflammation is raised.
When you are in a ketogenic state, the ketones your body produces and uses for fuel are powerful, inflammation-fighting superheroes. ß-hydroxybutyrate (also known as BHB) is a strong anti-inflammatory, inhibiting inflammatory pathways like NFkB, COX-2, and the NLRP3 inflammasome and activating the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory AMPK and Nrf2 pathways. Ketosis has also been shown to stimulate increased autophagy, or cellular repair. The take-home message is that ketones lower the inflammation related to just about every health problem we see today.
Additionally, BHB activates the very important AMPK pathway, which is involved in regulating energy balance and helps reduce inflammation by inhibiting the inflammatory Nf-kB pathways in the body. BHB also exerts a similar effect on pain and inflammation as the NSAID drug ibuprofen, by inhibiting the COX-2 enzyme.
Knowledge is power. This is not about shaming anyone about things they could have done differently in the past. But there's much we can do in the here and now. There is no cure for diagnosed autoimmune conditions, but we in functional medicine seek to give patients tools to manage their health. In many cases, there is a lot you can do to calm inflammation, balance the immune system, and, we hope, put your symptoms into remission. For the undiagnosed people struggling with autoimmune reactivity, there is also much you can do to take control of your health.

Sabellius (3rd century heretic) started a teaching that God was one Person, not three and that the Father appeared in three modes/manifestations but was the only Person in the Godhead.
Enter the "Jesus Only" Movement
1913 – Sabellianism revived and updated – R. E. McAlister told people they were to baptize in the name of "Jesus only" (based on Acts 2:38) and not in the name of the "Father, Son and Holy Ghost" (as instructed by Jesus in Matt 28:19). During this time, early teachers of this belief stated that Jesus is God but appeared as the Father, Son and Holy Ghost during different times of the Bible. They claimed Jesus manifested Himself in these three ways and is One Person as One God and not Three Persons in One God. They rejected the historic and fundamental view of the Trinity, and new churches and denominations sprang up under Oneness Pentecostalism (ex the United Pentecostal Church). Not all Pentecostals are "Jesus Only", but many are.
Modalism – the belief that Jesus appeared as different modes or manifestations of God throughout time with different names
(I'm so glad you asked!)
Trinitarian position of Jesus – The Father, Son & Holy Ghost are three separate Persons that are co-equal, co-existent, and co-eternal. They are all God having all power (omnipotence), all knowledge (omniscience) and all presence (omnipresence) except when Jesus was on earth in bodily form. Jesus exists from everlasting to everlasting. He was sent from the Father to fulfill the will of the Father. He willingly submitted but is no less God.
Modalist position of Jesus – Jesus existed as a "thought" in the mind of the Father before creation because God the Father was alone with no other Beings (Son or Holy Spirit) beside Him. He appeared as the Father in the Old Testament. (Depending on who you talk to) He split Himself or sent Himself to be born of Mary and was then Jesus on earth. After His death and resurrection, He left as Jesus and came back as the Holy Spirit to His believers.
There is a HUGE difference between believing Jesus always existed with the Father & Holy Spirit and believing He didn't exist until His birth on earth because it claims Jesus had an origin whereas traditional understanding is that God had no origin but has always been. Having the right understanding of Who Jesus is is crucial to salvation.
"Trinity" doesn't appear in the Bible
Many words don't appear in the Bible that we have come to recognize as things in the Bible. For instance, "demon" is not in the KJV. While Trinity does not appear, the Godhead does (Acts17:29, Romans 1:20, Col 2:9). Throughout the Bible we see verses that show the Father is God, Jesus is God and the Holy Spirit is God. The Lord also states He is the only God. There were no gods before Him and shall be no gods after Him (Isaiah 43:10). He is the only God.
The modalist version of God makes Him look as if He has some psychiatric disorder because He doesn't know His name until He settles on Jesus in the NT, has multiple personalities or is a liar that enjoys pretending to be multiple People while having monologues. The explanation they use would be like you saying that you are a father, a brother and a son. You have those three roles, but you're still one person. Sounds good, but since we assume that you are in your right mind, you are not going to say you are a father to yourself! You are the father to your children and the son to your father. If you say you're going to send your son, people expect to see someone that resembles you (may look, sound, or act like you) but is a totally different person. You and your children "one" in the sense that if someone asks for "Brown" (for example), it addresses one or all of you because Brown is your name and who you are. You have different roles and positions in the family, but each one is equally a Brown.
But God is "One" God
Some verses where One is used in the plural form
Deut 6:4 (God – Elohim is plural, one – echad is a corporate oneness), Gen (creation – let US, create man in OUR image and in OUR likeness), 1 John 5:7 (Three are One), Isaiah 6:8 (who will go for Us?)
Some verses showing the Three at the same time
Matt 3:16-17 (baptism of Jesus), Matt 28:18-19 (great commission), Luke 1:35 (Mary learns how the Father will send the Holy Spirit to overshadow her so she can give birth to Jesus), John 14:26 (Jesus explains the Father will send the Holy Spirit to remind them what Jesus taught), John 14:16-17 (Jesus states He will pray the Father send the Holy Spirit), Rev 4:8 (Holy – Father, Holy – Son, Holy – Spirit)
See this website for more examples and a clearer explanation of how God showed Himself in three forms in the Old & New Testament. explanations
When you read the Bible and let it speak for itself, it shows numerous places that identify separate Persons in the Trinity.
– God stated He would send His Son as a Redeemer for mankind. (God doesn't lie, so if He was sending Himself, wouldn't He just say it?)
– During the baptism of Jesus, the voice of the Father spoke from Heaven while the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus like a dove. (Was Jesus being a ventriloquist and throwing His voice from Heaven and referring to Himself in the third person while casting an image to appear as a different spiritual being resting on Himself?)
– Jesus stated He was sent by the Father and prayed to His Father. (If He was just the One, wouldn't He be praying to Himself?).
– On the Mount of Transfiguration, the disciples of Jesus hear the Father (again) instruct them to hear and obey Jesus.
– Jesus had to ascend to His Father after His death and would pray to send the Holy Spirit. He had to leave in order for the Holy Spirit to come to remind the disciples of what Jesus taught. (Was He presenting His blood to Himself and leaving to send Himself again?)
– Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father and will return again with a shout. (Who is Jesus sitting beside if it isn't the Father, and how can He be seated and not return until it's time to receive His church while simultaneously being on earth as the Holy Spirit?)
Doctrine – UPCI beliefs – beliefs
– Bible is infallible and completely the Word of God
– Father, Son & Holy Spirit are God but are not three separate Persons
– Water baptism is essential to salvation and must be performed only in the name of Jesus by an ordained oneness minister
– Speaking in tongues is required to prove the baptism of the Holy Ghost (speaking in tongues – modern tongues)
The beliefs link to other pages explaining the "oneness" of God and detailing their doctrines.
Oneness Pentecostalism – website
What about the Acts 2:38 command to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus?
This is not a formula for what Name to be baptized in but to come under the authority of Jesus Christ. Remember the Sanhedrin didn't want anyone preaching or teaching in the name of Jesus? They had no problem with God or teaching about the Father under Old Testament laws, but they did not want to recognize Jesus as being God. The Apostles had to specify Jesus as Jesus was the One that had given them authority to heal, baptize, cast out demons, do miracles and preach in His name. No one disputed the deity of the Father.
There is sometimes difficulty determining who believes God is one Person or Three in One. What I've noticed is those false teachers who are oneness believers will dance around the question with different phrases in order to blend in with those with a historic Christian view. For instance they will state "God manifested Himself as the Father, Son and Holy Ghost", God is too big to explain in our terms, and other things to avoid specifically denying the Trinity.
What did the Early Church Founders believe?
The term "Trinity" may not have been in the Bible, but it was certainly understood before the Council of Nicea in 325AD.
"Tertullian contended against Praxeas concerning the new doctrine we now call Modalism. Praxeas took his beliefs from Sabellius. This view of Modalism teaches that there is one in the Godhead and He takes different forms: the Father = the Son = the Holy Spirit. They are different modes of the same God. Sabellius refined his doctrine around the beginning of the third century. He explained his belief:
"the existence of a divine monad (which he named the huiopater) which by a process of expansion projected itself successively in revelation as the Father, Son, Holy Spirit. So each appeared in different periods of time, instead of existing simultaneously. The Father was the creator and law giver, the Son was the redeemer and the Holy Spirit was the giver of grace and the regenerator."
Epiphanius, bishop of Salamis wrote in 375 in his volume about heresies,
"Their doctrine is, that Father, Son and Holy Spirit are one and the same being, in the sense that three names are attached to the one substance. A close analogy may be found in the body, soul and spirit of man."
This is similar to the 'modes' of God claimed by Oneness Pentecostals today.
This was never accepted by the church and was considered heresy. Tertullian argued against this by stating the church's historic belief that,
"We define that there are two, the Father and the Son, and three with the Holy Spirit, and this number is made by the pattern of salvation…[which] brings about unity in trinity, interrelating the three, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. They are of one substance and power, because there is one God from whom these degrees, forms and kinds devolve in the name of Father, Son and Holy Spirit." (Against Praxeas p. 156-7).
"The connection of the Father in the Son the Son in the paraclete (Holy Spirit), produces three coherent persons, who are yet distinct one from another. These three are one essence, not one person, as it is said, 'I and my Father are one,' in respect of unity of substance, not singularity of number."… "Yet we have never given vent to the phrases 'two Gods', or 'two Lords': not that it is untrue the Father is God, the Son is God, the Spirit is God, each is God." ( Ante-Nicene fathers vol.3,p.621, Against Praxeas.)" – What the Early Church Believed – early church beliefs
What the Early Church Believed – beliefs – Read quotes from over a dozen 1st and 2nd century Christians regarding the Trinity. Some were disciples of the Apostles of Jesus and would have direct information to know whether or not God is three Persons is One.

T. D. Jakes – A wolf with a large following
T. D. Jakes is a Modalist. He will skirt around the issue when confronted, but he still believes and teaches the same way. Recently, Jakes attended the Elephant Room 2 which was supposed to be a round-table discussion featuring evangelical pastors. His attendance was controversial because most pastors knew his stance on the Trinity which is a major doctrinal issue – a salvation matter. Well-known pastors were bold enough to turn down the invitation to speak because Jakes teaches another Jesus, also promotes the prosperity gospel and is leading the movement to acceptance of all religions by refusing to tell people the truth about hell and those who deny Jesus.
Reviewing the Comments of TD Jakes in the Elephant Room
– Dr. James White reviews how Jakes dodges and answers questions regarding Who God is. He also reviews previous teachings/quotes from Jakes stating that God manifested Himself in three ways and is not three Persons, discusses terms and phrases modalists use to sound like Trinitarians and takes questions during the last hour.
TD Jakes believes he is the kingdom, power & glory –

This is not meant to cause anger but to bring about an awareness that there are major distinctions between the doctrines. Having the correct Jesus is important. Having the correct understanding of salvation is important. Apparently, many of our televangelists believe the same way. This website stated clearly that water baptism in the name of Jesus and speaking in tongues are essential to the experience of salvation. faith statement That is works-based faith added to the grace of God. Jesus Christ did everything that was necessary to provide salvation. It is a gift a God and not of works lest any man should boast.

Report on records management conference
A summary of the Records Management Conference I attended in Detroit on August 10 is included in this report.
Summary of Seessions Attended
The following summarizes each of the sessions I attended
1. Filling Equipment
This session was designed to acquaint the participants with the latest filling equipment. Much of the equipment on display was automatic.
2.Records Retrieval
The purpose of this session was to acquaint the participants with the various factors that need ed to be considered in developing a records retentiuon schedule
1. Records Transfer
In this session, participants leaned about the new developments in transferring records from active status to inactive status.
On the basis of my attending the conference, I am making the following recommendations:
1) We investigate the possibility of purchasing lateral filling equipment
2) We evaluate the validity of our records retention schedule and revise as needed.

Grassroots political involvement is in our genes. We were created with politics during the New Deal and we continue to recognize the value political involvement brings our members. Telling the cooperative story is important, particularly when it comes to unique challenges our members face. We also advocate for flexibility so that electric cooperatives can operate efficiently and continue to provide safe, reliable and affordable electricity even in the most remote areas of the state. Our time-tested participation has contributed positively to the outcome of the legislative process.
Through the guidance of an elected board of directors, electric cooperatives work to provide electricity at the lowest possible cost consistent with sound management. Federal, state and local resolutions support electric energy policies that balance safety and reliability, affordability and environmental sensitivity.
Cooperatives also promote and fund economic development initiatives to create jobs and maintain a high standard of living for rural Minnesotans. In planning for electric fuel sources in the next 10, 20 or 30 years, electric cooperatives make informed decisions that consider technology advances, fuel source availability and price, transmission infrastructure, emissions, population densities and economic projections.
A statewide or national association's credibility depends on the knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm of its members. MREA succeeds because its members interact and engage government officials in the business of powering homes, farms and businesses.
Directors' Day at the Capitol
During the MREA annual meeting, cooperative board directors and managers spend a day at the Minnesota Capitol discussing electric generation, transmission and delivery policy issues with legislators. The directors and managers serve as the frontline for explaining the cooperative position on recently introduced bills being discussed at the Capitol and how they impact electric rates and reliability for rural member-owners.
Grassroots Day at the Capitol
Each legislative session, MREA member distribution cooperatives select delegates from among their employees, directors, member-owners, key account customers and others to meet with state legislators at the Minnesota Capitol. The event is timed to coincide with final committee debates on electricity proposals.
Grassroots advocates share professional and personal expertise on bills that have a critical impact on the day-to-day operations of the cooperatives and the quality and affordability of electricity to the member-owner. The day motivates and engages grassroots advocates in electric issues and strengthens relationships with legislators.
