It sounds like bragging when I say that, but I've no right to brag.
I've got no more right to brag about going to heaven
than a passenger on a sinking ship
has a right to brag if he happens to have been told the way to the
lifeboat. It isn't a matter of "being better,"
or even being "good enough," because none of us
Jesus is the only man ever good enough to go to heaven,
and He is the way,
The rest of us are sinful: we "owe" too great a debt
to ever pay off. As for our attempts to live
right and do good things, that's all well and good, but it
can never earn us the right to go.
Jesus paid the price we can not pay
when He was on the cross. It is
through Him, and Him alone, that we
can gain entrance into heaven.
Check out the following verses:
The Bible contains several other passages that
speak of going to heaven:

New glowing mushroom species named after Mozart's Requiem
October 7,
State Professor of Biology Dennis Desjardin has discovered seven new
glow-in-the-dark mushroom species, increasing the number of known luminescent
fungi species from 64 to 71. He has named two of the new species after
movements in Mozart's Requiem -- Mycena luxaeterna (eternal light) and
Mycena luxperpetua (perpetual light) -- names which reflect that the
mushrooms glow 24 hours a day.
Desjardin and colleagues discovered the fungi in Belize, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Japan, Malaysia and Puerto Rico. The discoveries include four species new to science and three new reports of luminescence in known species. Three-quarters of glowing mushrooms, including the species described in the study, belong to the Mycena genus, a group of mushrooms that feed off and decompose organic matter as a source of nutrients to sustain their growth.
These latest findings shed light on the evolution of luminescence, adding to the number of known lineages in the fungi family tree where luminescence has been reported. "What interests us is that within Mycena, the luminescent species come from 16 different lineages, which suggests that luminescence evolved at a single point and some species later lost the ability to glow," Desjardin said. He believes some fungi glow to attract nocturnal animals that aid in the dispersal of the mushroom's spores, which are similar to seeds and are capable of growing into new organisms.
To date, Desjardin has discovered more than 200 new fungi species and together with these latest findings, has discovered nearly a quarter of all known luminescent fungi. "It's pretty unusual to find this many luminescent species, typically only two to five percent of the species we collect in the field glow," Desjardin said. "I'm certain there are more out there."
Listen to Lux Aeterna, the movement in Mozart's Requiem which inspired the name for one of Desjardin's newly discovered species: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiMRtdv3yCI

We were commissioned by IPPR to do some mock political explainer films to highlight the fact that there are 1000's of Empty Homes in Britain and that Housing Supply is on the rise.
One is set in the regal 20's and the other set in the garish 80's. The styles were fun to play around with and allowed us to use both traditional animation techniques and more modern motion graphics.

With International Kitchen Garden Day approaching I thought it would be a good chance to write about the kitchen gardens we remember from our childhood.
Or it could be a recent experience of a garden we have created or visited.
Has their been a garden which inspired or delighted you?.
It will be interesting to read everyone's story.
Are some of us actually eating healthier foods than our parents?.
What did our grandparents eat?.
I have some Indian friends I shall try to get a story from them about Southern Indian Kitchen gardens.
Try to get your friends to write their stories.
There are probably even some old photos that could be scanned in.
I have a great aunt who is 102 years of age, still lives on her own, cooks her own meals and lives in a quiet NSW town, I shall write her story.
So the challenge is on lets see how many stories we can get.
They can be anonymous entries, or you can choose a blog name, it does not matter, it is the stories that will be interesting.
Please enter as many stories as you can.
We may even have prizes for the most interesting and most unusual stories.
Good writing deserves good eating ,you never know you could win a Doof Doof cabbage!

Step 3 – Collect your membership badge – which this year commemorates our 100th year in the Football League

Membership does not allow you to request tickets only. You must travel with the Supporters Club to obtain a match ticket.
Away travel
Please read the 'Travel rules and regulations' before booking away travel – Travel rules and regulations
Any anti-social behaviour – including poor behaviour, bad language and lack of consideration for other members or the coach etc. – will not be tolerated.
Anyone engaging in anti-social behaviour will be prevented from attending meetings and from travelling with the Supporters Club to away matches. This is at the discretion of those running the Supporters Club/away travel and, if appropriate, will also reported to Coventry City Football Club and the Police.
Excessive consumption of alcohol which leads to anti-social behaviour will lead to the removal of membership, and in extreme cases, being escorted off the coach to make alternative travel arrangements. This is at the discretion of those running the Supporters Club/away travel and, if appropriate, will also reported to Coventry City Football Club and the Police.
If anyone requests an under-18 ticket they will not be permitted to consume alcohol on the coach.
In exceptional circumstances:
Members will be allowed to bring guests to away matches but they must purchase a membership for their guest prior to travel in addition to paying for their away travel & ticket. These individuals who will not have been previously seen at a meeting or away game are the responsibility of the member who requested their booking. If their guests engage in any anti-social behaviour, members will be prevented from attending meetings and from travelling with the Supporters Club to away matches for a period time as determined by those running the Supporters Club.
The length of any bans will be decided by those running the Supporters Club, or, if appropriate, the wider Supporters Club by consensus.
Final decisions
The final decision on all issues, including who can/cannot travel, or join the Supporters Club, will rest with those who founded the reformed Supporters Club, or who organise and run the meetings and away travel.

valpork asked:
Hi Everyone
I came across some information on how to access your strawman account. At first I was not confident but once I obtained and entered my 9 digit reference SSN/CRN (Social Security Number/Customer Reference Number), as an Australian citizen, there it was. My strawman account 'appears as being worth' around $832mil. (I know of someone else who is 10 times this amount…!). 🙄
I have done 4 separate searches and they all returned results.
Not sure if you are excited to learn about your account 'balance' but thought to give you instructions below to test this out. Remember I am in Australia, however no matter where you are in the world you should have a 9 digit reference number.
Note: SSN = Social Security Number / CRN = Customer Reference Number
(these are typically 9 digits in length with sometimes a letter at the end)
Before you start. Not everyone's number will work, not sure why. I have however pulled up enough of them to know this is not an accident. It is set up this way for people that KNOW what they are looking at, such as our strawman accounts that they like to keep a secret from us – there is no mention of a strawman name attached to this account nor your name/s. So first you need to know that with every CRN/SSN you put in, it will state at the top invalid symbol, ignore that, It is only to throw you off for those that don't know how the site works. Go to this website and then follow the below instructions…
Step 2
Type in your CRN (social security number) in the box that says enter ticker symbols at top of box and quote at the right of the box. Enter ssn exactly like this xxx xxx xxx with NO DASHES just spaces between numbers (and typically an alphabetical letter at the end of the 9 numerical reference number……and click on QUOTE on the right side of box
If you don't know your SSN/CRN then go to Centrelink (for Australia) to find this out – simply ask for this information without giving too much away (why you want this). If you already receive benefits then you should have your SSN/CRN reference details already. Ignore the thing that says unknown symbols up top, scroll down to bottom of page. At the bottom you will see two to three underlines words in blue that say
Trade / Chart / Research
Click on 'Research'
Step 3
Over to the right of the page under DETAILS it has towards the bottom Net Assets noted as ($M) the ($M) means that whatever number is really worth MILLIONS (the M means MILLIONS!). That was just so u can see what is in your strawman and what they dream you as being worth…
If this works for you share this around…
Good Luck…!!! 😀
I worked in a pet store and people would ask how big I would get.

Lawfullyjust replied:
That is all very interesting, Ive had a look at this but its for the USA and not for UK SS numbers.
Is there a UK site that we can check out these details on ???
valpork replied:
Hi Lawfullyjust
Not sure why it doesn't work for the UK. Perhaps try a few to confirm this. I do know it works for NZ & Australia.
Despite where you are in the world, your CRN / SS reference are made up of 9 digits followed by a letter, so it really should work.
Do you perhaps have a different reference to this from the UK?
royboyone replied:
I am in the UK and this is what has come up.
Don't understand it though. 😆

From where I am seeing it you need to click on the 'research' option so it takes you to a new screen. Hope this makes sense…? You should then see many details and a figure for the net worth.
See how you go by doing this… 😉
royboyone replied:
Hi valpork, I did what's in Red is an edit, and added from my first search. 🙂
valpork replied:
Ok, well done, so it shows that you are worth a cool 554.73 $M (don't spend it all at once…) 😯
Seriously, its amazing that this type of value is in each of our exemption accounts, which is attached to each of us alive today – as long as you have a birth certificate and a registered strawman.
So you have proven that it works in the UK…which is great news 🙂
Please share this information far and wide and so others learn this truth…
marke replied:
makes sense why we have social,national insurance numbers on our moneys.
when somebody dies and the death certificate is handed in they go collect the account.
roughly 450,000 or so people died every year in uk.
everything we do must go in and of the this account through our life
there is a common stock and prefered stock.
just think what michael jackson bond was worth,not forgetting the amount of oil under ground at never never land.bet they have hit squads,bumpin celebrities off and not forgetting a big stinking war.

Just tried my NI number in the link clicked 'Quote' and when I clicked on 'Research' the next page read 'page does not exist or is not available' BUMMER! How can this be? If it works for one Brit it should work every time 🙁
smilingalltheway replied:
it's usually the birth cert bond number to check (in red) not the social security number
valpork replied:
It is essentially a 9 digit number that identifies you to the social security 'network' in place. 😉
I know it works for CRN (customer reference number) down-under however it could be called something else in other parts of the world.
In about a dozen attempts it has worked 80% of the time, so don't get too down and out about it 😕
Good luck
Peacemaker2014 replied:
Well I finally cracked how to get into the Strawman account in UK. On the top left corner of the Birth Cert, there is an 'NHS number', even though there is no letter at the end like the NI number it works. I put it in as described with 3 space 3 space and 2, quote, research and there it was! 😯

Hi, on the Fidelity website do you have to register & login or is it just input your numbers and done?
Do you think that if I have a crappy credit score, my account will be less than if I was a "Good Slave" with a very good credit score?
Does the credit score have anything to do with our birth certificate bonds? The higher the interest on an alleged debt will mean that the parasites will take that from our accounts – and then we pay it also?
Sorry for all the questions, just trying to make sense of it.
valpork replied:
Many questions but not much to answer sorry. 🙄
The best way to learn about this, and how it works, is to input a few different numbers (from different people) to see what their accounts end up being. It can then be seen how someone who is not 'working' and therefore 'not paying taxes' has less credits when compared to someone who is working and paying taxes. The mind boggles to think that a 'death certificate' perhaps 'releases' these funds to someone… 😡
From my understanding it has everything to do with our birth certificate bond. 😯
The eBook from Mary E Croft helps to explain this better, in case you haven't read this already. You can view it here http://www.spiritualeconomicsnow.net/so … w_I_06.pdf [ http://www.spiritualeconomicsnow.net/solutions/How_I_06.pdf ]

Peacemaker2014 replied:
Yeah man, how much would you like? Don't be shy now… I'm doing my whole families strawman tonight. Sadly I didn't do mine as I can't find my own Birth Cert, but the person I did it for is worth just over 2,500.00M thats two million five hundred thousand dollars. The first question they asked was, so can I get any of it? All I could say was 'there are people working on it', but whether that it true or not I'm not sure.
My first feeling having seen the figure was anger. We spend our lives being bled dry by the system only to see the system bathing in riches created by us. You can say that the riches are fictitious or somesuch, but a house in Montego Bay isn't.
My second thought was, if the system spends it's fictitious 'life' doing all it can to bind me to my legal fiction, when I go to court and am asked if that is me, I should ask the court to issue a judgement that I am responsible for it and everything to do with it. That it is mine, my corporation, and I am able to do with it whatever I please because it is mine, it's in my name, has my NHS ID number as its stocks and shares ID number and so on. I should say, 'if you will issue such a judgement that will be accepted in both the commercial and the real world, I will accept that I am it and it is me.
Then I would go and sell sell sell! and declare my corporation closed for business. After that you can contact me in Montego Bay 😀
Just a thought, as my NI number didn't work in identifying me to the stock market, I wonder if the failures I'm reading about dealing with A4V and the like would have better success using the NHS ID? As that seems to be the key to our account.
I hope when enough people have seen their strawman value on the stock market, and the tidal wave of shock horror is rising, some bright spark will get to work at figuring out what we can do about it. The idea being to turn fictitious stocks and shares into the comforts of life before it all crashed and even the fiction isn't there any more. I mean, I would gladly go halfys with anyone who can work this one out, wouldn't you dear reader?
royboyone replied:
Hi Peacemaker, that figure should read, 2Billion500million.
Mine was only 545Million. 😆 😆
Peacemaker2014 replied:
sorry I don't speak to poor people 😛 But you're right of course it is billion and not million, which makes me even happier than I was before, for not being able to tear it out of their dead fictional hands 😥 ho hum
landlubber replied:
You have been identified as a generous man since you didn't even question why I needed to borrow from you. 😉 Sadly, as with most stories, true or otherwise, none of us in the UK owns our name or number, that's why we'll never see a penny of what our name is worth. As has been said elsewhere, the birth/berth certificate is just one huge con against us folks. I'm a man and anyone can call me whatever they want so long as they're not being rude. 😀 Peace
fusion replied:
Thanks Valpork
valpork replied:
Your welcome guys.
Just promise to spread this critical bit of information far and wide so we wake up the Sheeple scattered all around the globe 😉
Peacemaker2014 replied:
So Landlubber, just a thought, I see freemen using the system against itself in court and such, and I see people using A4V and prom notes in an attempt to use the system against itself. These methods are actually trying and in some cases succeeding in getting thems what are running the show to access our account and pay our bills using that account. SO, we are half way there aren't we? we are finding ways to draw funds from our secret account and use them for our benefit. SO, is it beyond the whit of man to find ways to legally claim that account as our own? Is it beyond the whit of man to somehow claim that which has been set up in OUR name, with OUR personal NHS number at the time of OUR birth. After all, it can't exist without us, WE are the host, IT is the leach, without us IT dies.
When the news of this account spreads around the world and more of us start to ask more questions, and seeking redress, if some bright spark with a legal brain decided to charge for example £1,000,000 from each fund that he repatriated having the expertise to break into the vaults, and if we all decided to take out only £1,000,000 from our account, the governments would be forced to capitulate OR see the crash of the whole system because we COULD take it all. SO rather than us saying oh well, never mind it was a nice thought, we should be thinking about winning the game, not just a few odd points.
God created us as equals, and somewhere in the mystical world of legal land must be a God fearing 'maverick' who sees the potential of making that more of a reality. What say you dear reader?

HQSOUMAR replied:
I've tried this with the certificate of birth number (in red, top left hand corner) which was originally in the format of xx 111111 on the certificate by (as previously suggested) using xx1 111 11 on the quote. It actually came up with 2 different mutual fund quotes. Looking at the details column from the research link fund inception on the first one was 30th June 1986, though i was born much earlier. I guess this could be as these things are chopped and changed between investments? The first one was worth only $124.01M
the second fund quote gave the following:- fund inception 16th June 1956 (before i was born) and had a portfolio of net assets of $1,485.27M (that's only just near 1.5 Billion).
strangely enough i also tried my UK national insurance number (which is in the format of xx 11 11 11 x) and used the same format above without including the last letter. Which throughout my life has actually varied (even though i believe it shouldn't). so i just tried the format xx1 111 11 (no last letter). This also produced a result. with a fund inception of 16th December 1985 and a portfolio net assets of $130.13M
I did try some other NI numbers and these returned an error. I also wonder whether putting in numbers from copy certificates (ones which can be obtained at any time) which will most likely be very different to the original numbers would also maybe just display some random mutual fund which uses the same number.
interesting all the same. I should add. that the name on the birth certificate is handwritten in black in all in lower case cursive script.

Hi Valpork, tried the website you suggested and yes my account came up and I was most impressed,but tonight it says the website is temporarily down,just when I was hoping to show it to my sceptic friend,any suggestions please.

Savings is critical if you want to build up your portfolio and obtain your monetary objectives. There's no different method round it. Trading in futures is like buying and selling in shares. If you need to make investments or commerce in the stock change or by-product market, you should develop an understanding of the market. Trading in futures isn't playing and your outcome doesn't depend in your luck.
No matter how exhausting you look, you won't discover an funding extra boring than a Certificate of Deposit. If you're available in the market for certainly one of these low-risk investment vehicles, you may get one through your bank, credit score union, or even through your investment broker. A safer wager can be to speculate cash into a dividend stock mutual fund.
What you need to open a brokerage account
You can have a small share; say 10{0f029e86796f348430263686ccd3f6983fec11802656e71c6356854c896ba63f}, of your portfolio allocated in TIPS. Sometimes your portfolio might move via periods of under-performance compared to the general market. It happens with great buyers too!
Diversity of your portfolio with restricted good high quality companies is desirable, but first you need time to know the businesses. Fisher, an excellent investor, warns shopping for an organization with out having sufficient information of it could be harmful. If you don't have sufficient time to dedicate to such studies, diversify your portfolio with just three good quality mutual funds.
The farther the purchase value is beneath its intrinsic value, the higher the margin of safety towards future uncertainty and the larger the stock's resiliency to market downturns. One way to discover a good deal on stock is to look for shares priced less than 1.5 times the guide worth. Consider the P/E ratio as a valuation metric.
Put the utmost savings allowed right into a tax-deferred investment account. Be positive to contribute enough cash to get the employer match if supplied by your organization.
But transcend these and search far and broad for data on a company. Look on the opinion of its stakeholders similar to prospects, suppliers, staff and competitors. This is Fisher's scuttlebutt technique for investing.… Read More

I find it amusing the way people from all over the world have fallen for the globalist/international propaganda for so many decades. It's like there's still this fundamental, basic belief in authority figures, as if they had access to better information than us plebs do or as if they live in a higher state of consciousness. The truth is, of course, people in the media and the government are just as animalistic and horny as we the people are.
I suppose it's rooted in the programming we get as kids, in which respect for the elders is of utmost importance. This programming or belief or indoctrination, if you will, made sense in a community were you could go and punch the leader if you felt he deserved it. Just being able to punch your leader makes him hesitant of abusing the people he has control over. So in a community of population <2000 this "respect the authority" mindset did make a lot of sense.
Fast forward tens of thousands of years in human evolution and you end up with some whore (male or female) on TV telling you how outrageous you need to feel about some supposed tragedy or genocide. Or chemical attack. Especially if it's been done by a cruel dictator that needs to be taken down and replaced by some other political system, because of course, we westerners know better than you what your country needs.
Needless to say, Bashar al-Assad might have actually carried out that chemical attack. I don't know for sure. I'm just an irrelevant Latino some 10,000 miles away from the conflict. What I do know is that it reeks of a false flag attack, one out of the many that have been done in modern and post-modern history (and herstory!). Syria is a strategic country form a geopolitical standpoint. Losing Syria to the
communists Russians is a big no-no and "we" will do whatever it takes to stop it from happening. I mean, if we don't keep them in check those cheeky bastards might even begin trading oil in other than dollars or euros, the savages! (Side note, it would be truly surreal if bitcoin or another cryptocurrency became the oil-trading standard).
I'm not in the mood for predictions but since the middle east is running dry after so many decades of conflicts, the industrial-war complex (i.e. deep state) might feel like shifting places. North Korea seems like the next logical choice. China is not willing to risk losing its key partner (the US) just to help a country that's an anomaly in itself, a country belonging to a long-forgotten cold-war era. Anyway, sorry Kim Jong-un, Juche ideology might not be enough to save you. Although if it happens -even for the wrong reasons- I'd say good riddance.

Theological Conflict: A Perspective from the Early Church by Gary Neal Hansen
Hansen is Associate Professor of Church History at the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary. He writes, "We are in a time of theological conflicts in the PC(USA). ..People on opposite sides of the issues look at the Church and are shocked. ..Conflict has always been a part of the life of the Church....this article will look at two examples of lengthy conflicts from long ago: The Donatist controversy and the Arian controversy from the early centuries of Christianity. We will see that the Church fought hard battles, that he battles were on the most foundational issues imaginable, that the battles lasted not merely for years but for centuries, and that God remained the faithful shepherd of the Church throughout."

The Privilege of ProvisionFebruary 2, 2017 at 4:32 pm | Posted in The Family of Faith | 5 Comments
Tags: citizenship, family of faith, family of God, household of faith, Philippians 4
Those who belong to the family of faith enjoy the privilege of protection, and the privilege of provision.
The citizens of earthly nations pay taxes so that needs will be met; the citizens of God's family have their REAL needs provided for by God according to His riches in glory in Christ.
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
Citizenship in an earthly nation is supposed to provide safety and acceptance; citizenship in God's nation and family provides a home and unseverable relationships (although fellowship may be tested, strained, and even broken).

Previously we looked at how people get into the family of faith, and some of the responsibilities that come with being part of the family of faith. Now, as we examine some of the privileges of being part of the family of faith, we will see how God prepares His family.
Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Ephesians 2:19
The "therefore" in Ephesians 2:19 refers back to:
That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
Ephesians 2:12
Before Christ abolished the division between Jews and gentiles, and before He slew the enmity between God and men, men were considered "strangers." But those who have entered into the family of faith are no longer strangers – no longer people who have no place – no longer complete outsiders without any legal right to be where they are. Nor are they mere "foreigners" – people who are allowed to stay in the space which encompasses the household, but are not really part of the household. In other words, those who truly come to Christ by grace through faith are not mere sojourners or house guests, so we who are already part of the family of faith may tell them to make themselves at home. Perhaps you have told a guest in your house to "make yourself at home," as a courtesy, without really meaning it. A person who truly "makes himself at home" in your home is liable to go through your underwear drawer, drool on your pillow, ransack your medicine cabinet, drink all your grape soda, and reprogram your DVR! We issue the invitation, but there's an understanding that we don't mean it literally. But when God welcomes you into HIS family, He really DOES mean it, and, in Ephesians 2, He is saying that, now, as part of the family of faith, we also have become part of the "nation" of God, and not only one nation "under" God, but the "citizens" of God's own universal nation (earthly and Heavenly), so that we have the privileges of citizenship, one of which is the idea of a new patriotism that we will develop next time.

Music You Might Otherwise Miss 2-25-14
As South By Southwest gets closer…the more new (and good) material gets released. These last few weeks have been outstanding as far as the quality of the music. I'm having the delicious dilemma of trying to decide which songs to keep and put into rotation for the regular part of my show. Decisions…decisions.
I got the show kicked off with The Good Sports. The Good Sports are a five-piece, mixed gendered, lo-fi Alt. Pop group based in Brisbane, Australia. I found them because of another Aussie band, Major Leagues. Major Leagues posted this single, "Out Of The Way," from The Good Sports, on their Facebook page.
That was followed up with a track from Las Rosas. Jose Boyer is the frontman and the bassist for this relatively new band. They just formed in February of last year, released a handful of demos, and have just dropped a new single…"Black Cherry." They are also on tour with Nick Waterhouse.
Changing musical direction with a decidedly electronic focus. This artist is simply called Lowell. She is originally from Calgary, moved with her father for a time to the Yukon, but now makes her home in Toronto. Lowell fits, very much, into the Pop music scene, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Her electronica writing style is very accessible, easy to follow along with the singing parts, and I am sure most people will be tapping their foot or moving their head to the beat. The new EP is titled I KILLED SARA V. and it comes out today. The song I featured was "The Bells."
Proceeding that was a tune from Misun. Misun is back Big Time with this new, infectious single…"Travel With Me." For my steady listeners, you know I've been featuring Misun for quite some time. For you newbies Misun (Me-sun) started as a mixed-gendered trio, from Washington, DC and fronted by Misun Wojcik (sounds like a nice polish girl). They have since added another member to the band and moved to Los Angeles. (Both moves, I believe, is a good idea) The force behind Misun is, of course, Misun herself, however, she works closely with her buddy and bandmate, Nacey. Nacey produces all of the band's material. They make a great team and I just think they are destined for bigger things.
Next up was an unsigned, London based, Alt Pop, quartet that I found through The Guardian's online newspaper music reviewers section. They are called Flyte. They actually released their only recording, an EP entitled LIVE, about six months ago. Since that time they've been playing to larger and larger audiences, which is now drawing the attention of many record labels and they are seriously being courted and I imagine they will cut a record deal in 2014. This fun, little tune I played on air is called "Over And Out."
Next came a song from Norton. Norton is a four-piece Indie Pop band out of Castelo Branco, Portugal. They've been around for a while but haven't had a great deal of impact outside their native Portugal. However, with the upcoming release of their new, self-titled album, they should start getting some traction. The album officially drops on March 10th and the pre-release single, "Magnets," is already available on i-tunes. The entire album is already available to stream via the band's BandCamp page.
My lineage subject was St. Paul and the Broken Bones. St. Paul and the Broken Bones, which is a great name for this up and coming Neo-Soul band. They are six members strong with St. Paul on lead vocals and a dynamite horn section doing some heavy lifting. They haven't been around all that long but they are already getting a great deal of attention. (Their sound fits very nicely into the playlist of my other show…The Uptown Blues Party, and they are in heavy rotation right now). They self-released a four-song EP, GREETINGS FROM BIRMINGHAM, AL, back in December of 2012 and they just released their debut, full-length album, HALF THE CITY, last week. Spoiler alert. Three of the four songs on their debut EP also appear on the new disc. Hey…why not? The tune I picked to share was "Call Me."
Completing the lineage with St. Paul and the Broken Bones was the tune "Sugar Dyed Honey Pants," which was released on their debut EP, GREETINGS FROM BIRMINGHAM, AL, and that was from December of 2012. (BTW, that song also appears on the new album but the name has been shortened to "Sugar Dyed.")
My re-issue release of the week was from Frankie Goes To Hollywood. My goodness…they were huge. The album was WELCOME TO THE PLEASURE DOME, it came out in 1984, and the hit single, "Relax," was actually banned from airplay in the U.K. The song made it to number six on the charts without being on the radio. It was huge in the clubs. Well it's been re-issued and, of course, I'm went with the hit. I had to!
I closed off that two-song set with the latest effort from HOTT MT. Now HOTT MT are a five-piece, mixed gendered, psyche-pop band and are on White Iris records. They have just released that single, "Kat Kastle," and can be downloaded for free. Here's the link.
Next up is one of wonderful new single from Early Winters. They are an international collective from Los Angeles, Toronto and London. They have an Alt. Country kind of sensibility to them. They are fronted by vocalist Carina Round and on the song had for airplay, "Love Won't Leave Me Alone," they remind me a great deal of early Lucinda Williams. The new album, VANISHING ACT, comes out today.
Then there was the latest material from Lily & the Palour Tricks. Lily & the Palour Tricks actually found me. They emailed me directly about their brand new single, "Requiem," just last week and I was quite impressed…so I wanted to share it with you.
Let's keep things moving here with an up-tempo, Alt. Country sound of Black Prairie. They can be found on the Sugar Hill record label and they have just released this single, "Let It Out." It is the band's lead off single from the yet-to-released CD, FORTUNE, which drops on April 22nd.
Let me slip in one more from Circa Waves. They are an Alt. Pop band out of Liverpool, England. They are getting ready to tour with Interpol and have just released this outstanding single, "Stuck In My Teeth."
Songs in BOLD are links to videos of that song. Songs that are ITALICIZED are links to Soundcloud Audio Files of said song.
Come listen LIVE on wmfo.org from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. (I could use the support) ;^)
If you missed the live version…check out the archived one. Here's the LINK.
I suggest you follow me on Twitter and get an early taste on new music that comes out each week.
Also…follow along on SoundCloud where I post music streams way before I play them on air.

Falmouth Scientific, Inc. (FSI) and RigStat hace completed the successful installation of Ocean Current Monitoring Systems with AtoN over AIS communications at the Puerta Maya Cruise Terminal in Cozumel, Mexico.
"These monitoring systems will not only assist captains in navigating into our port, but will also increase the safety for the many thousands of cruise ship passengers that visit our resort city each year", said the General Manager of the Puerta Maya Terminal.
The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a vessel location and information reporting system used by the marine industry as a worldwide standard. Aids to Navigation (AtoN) Transceivers are a sub-class of AIS which communicate critical navigation information such as marine hazards and meteorological data to benefit mariners and authorities.
The systems, which were installed on the two Puerta Maya Terminal piers, integrate FSI ACM-PLUS current meters with RigStat environmental monitoring systems to send real-time current speed, current direction, and water temperature data to incoming cruise vessels to enhance the safety of their approach to the terminal. The data is displayed to the ship's captain as part of the standard AIS data stream.
FSI and RigStat teamed to provide a fully integrated solution that included instruments, hardware, battery backup, AIS communication, user interface software, and installation services. This integrated system can be purchased as a standard solution, or customized to accommodate special requirements for other ports and shipping terminals. The AtoN data format is now a standard data output option on the FSI ACM-PLUS family of current sensors.

On Wednesday at the World Chess Championship in Sochi, Russia, Game 4 ended in a draw.
But what a draw!
Sure, I realise that sounds like a downer, after a Game 2 in which Magnus Carlsen, the world number one and current World Champion, crushed his Challenger, Vishy Anand.
And a Game 3 in which Anand, who is from India, struck back and crushed Carlsen, a Norwegian.
You couldn't have asked for two more exciting days of great, fighting chess between two elite players.
Prior to the match, plenty of experts and observers thought that although Anand has done well to get back to the WCC to stage a rematch of last year's contest, which he lost, he didn't stand much of a chance against Carlsen, currently the highest rated player in the history of the game.
Anand has completely reversed that opinion and proved not just that he remains a tremendous player at the top level, but that he's a worthy challenger for Magnus' crown.
Game 4 may have lacked some of the drama of Games 3 and 4, but it was still thoroughly impressive, for similar yet different reasons. The score now stands at 2 points apiece, with 8 games to go (draws are worth half a point, wins a full point, and losses zero).
Even though the game ended in a draw, it started with a bang. I've been arguing that Anand, at 44, needs to take it to his younger opponent with both the white and black pieces. In chess matches such as this, players alternate black and white, although because playing white is an advantage statistically, in a 12-game match, the payer who begins with black will often get two games in a row with white to even out the odds.
Last year, the match between Anand, then the World Champion, and Carlsen, the challenger, started with four draws. Then Magnus gained the upper hand and finished Anand off in 10 games.
No one wanted to see that happen again, and the players have obliged. Game 1 was a true fighting draw; Game 2 was a bold refutation by Carlsen of one of the premier Grandmaster-level defenses, the Berlin Defence; and Game 3 was a wildly complex theoretical struggle engineered by Anand that left Carlsen dazed and bewildered.
With the black pieces again after a decisive win, Anand stated his intentions right away. Carlsen played the opening move 1. e4, moving the pawn in front of his white king two spaces forward.
The last time Anand played black, he went for the Berlin Defence, an opening that has become a much-studied drawing weapon among GMs. You can read my recap of Game 2 for a primer on how the Berlin develops and why.
This time, he did what everyone hoped he would do: he played 1…c5, pushing his pawn on the c file forward two squares.
This is the most aggressive reply black has to 1. e4. It's called the "Sicilian Defence," and it has preoccupied the minds of the world's greatest chess players for centuries. I've already delved into the Sicilian — the preferred opening, I should add, of my 9-year-old chess-playing son, but a completely intimidating and difficult opening for me — in previous recaps. So check those out if you want to quick rundown on what the opening is all about.
The chess cognoscenti observing the match could scarcely contain their glee when Anand played c5. Sopiko Guramishvili, a female Grandmaster commenting alongside GM Peter Svidler for the official online broadcast, was so delighted that her voice rose half an octave when the move was on the board.
But that's the Sicilian for you. It shows that the black player isn't aiming for a draw — he's playing to win. For Anand, the statement was clear: I've won once, and now I plan to win again.
This was the Comeback Kid…er, Middle-Aged Man?…story everyone watching had hoped for: Anand recognising his late-career chance and holding nothing back.
A neat thing about the Sicilian is that in its many, many variations, it tends to create positions on every move that are deeply intriguing. Because the earliest position is visually unbalanced — the e-pawn and and c-pawn look like they're floating in space, and the game itself looks more like two separate games that could at some point converge violently — that theme persists, regardless of how either side labors to calm things down.
Nevertheless, Carlsen swiftly tried to diffuse the potential for dynamic, tactical play — an Anand speciality — and went for a "quiet" Sicilian line of play. If there even is such a thing.
I'll show two positions here that illustrate what I'm talking about.
First, the attacking setup that Anand developed before move 20. As you can see, both of black's bishops and his queen are aiming for the white king, with threats of checkmate coming via the g- and h-files.
Magnus, as white, is supposed to be the aggressor, but as you can see, most of his pieces are forming a defensive barricade around his castled king, waiting for the black assault so that a counterattack can be launched. Black could miscalculate and overextend, and that's what white is hoping for — so that he can then switch from defence to attack and storm the black king on the same side of board.
Here's another position, from a bit later in the game:
That's a huge battle brewing on the jam-packed d-file and the adjacent e-file! Positions like this mean that either some kind of attack coming, or that black and white are going to enter a melee in which a lot of pieces come off the board very rapidly.
When black plays the Sicilian, this is the idea. To provoke conflict and chaos and ultimately, to win.
In Anand's case, he was also returning the trump card he played in Game 3: his vast knowledge of opening theory. His challenge to Carlsen was to ask, "OK, Magnus, have you played this opening as often as I have?"
Best outcome for Anand: win. Worst: draw. But he's found his edge, and it's called the database-that-is-my-brain.
My daughter thinks Anand looks like Mr. Spock from "Star Trek." She's spot-on: Anand is sort of playing three-dimensional chess against Carlsen now: one dimension on the board, one in the mind, and one in the body. For the last of those, Anand understands that he has to go for wins to have a chance at getting back the title before his age catches up with him.
It might not have looked like power chess, but it was.
Anand established a strong position, but Carslen knows the Sicilian and all its variations well enough to diffuse the threats.
Matters got tricky as the players headed for the first time control, after two hours of play. Magnus had to blitz out a few moves. But by then there were only kings, queens, and pawns on the board. So he was able to avoid losing on time.
Queen endgames are very difficult. The most powerful piece on the board can cover so many squares that it's extremely challenging to "activate" the king in any meaningful way or get a pawn to your opponent's back rank and put an extra queen on the board. With proper play, one side can usually manoeuvre into a position where an endless, "perpetual" check occurs.
That's what happened by move 47 of Game 3. Carlsen had the perpetual, and after two consecutive checks, the gentlemen called it a draw.
And gentlemen they were! One of the great images in modern sports then appeared.
Anand and Carlsen spent an additional few minutes discussing the position and the game. They knew that they had produced something simultaneously beautiful and yet frustrating. It was sort of Carlsen's fault, for avoiding the sharper Sicilian lines and aiming for a more low-key game. But he still had to play it out.
The two men clearly have great respect for each other.
After 4 games — as Carlsen pointed out — the score is exactly the same as last year: 2-2. But how we got here! Whew! For chess fans and even newcomers to the game, it's been an utter thrilling start to the World Chess Championship rematch.
Thursday is a rest day. The match will resume on Friday, with Anand playing white.
You can watch the entire match replay here.
And GM Daniel King provides a great review of the game at ChessBase.

Instead, it almost ruined her life.
Insurgents from Boko Haram, who have brought turmoil to much of north-east Nigeria in recent years, had blocked the road between two villages. Her husband, Usman, a primary school teacher was pulled out of the car.
"They asked him for ID, but he did not have it... they just shot him dead. They took the car and drove off, leaving me and two wives of other brothers on the side of the road," she said.
"It was baking hot, and we thought we might die."
Hamzatu was four months pregnant. "It was baking hot, and we thought we might die. We were there for two hours with no water before a man on a motorcycle came by. He sped off to the next village and told them what had happened and they came and got us."
That was four years ago. "June 6, 2013," she said, recalling the day her life changed forever in an instant.
Alive, but now widowed with four children, soon to be five, Hamzatu had faced a bleak future. With little formal education and limited access to funds, widows in Nigeria can face extremely challenging situations if the main breadwinner is suddenly removed. Finding a lifeline can be all but impossible.
Hamzatu's deceased husband's relatives rallied around, but with their own families to take care of, there were limits to the support they could offer.
"Usman's elder brother took care of me until I gave birth, but then he moved to Kano (capital of a neighbouring state), and we lost contact," she recounted. "He moved ahead with his own life."
In time, Hamzatu made her way to Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, where she had other relatives. Life was tough, but because her husband had been a state employee she initially received a small state pension. That dried up after six months.
"It is all about lifelines - finding hope again."
Then, she heard through others in a similar situation of the Future Prowess Widows' Cooperative Society, set up by Zannah Mustapha, the 2017 winner of UNHCR's prestigious Nansen Refugee Award. The association groups widows together, offering them support collectively and individually to start their lives again.
"It was enough to find a place to live, and get started again," she explained.
In an interview with UNHCR, Mustapha explained the motives behind the organization. "It is all about lifelines, that is what we aim to do - help people get a living again. Once they have that, they have hope again."
Hamzata's 10-year-old son, Aliyu Usman, was accepted at Mustapha's primary school, which takes diplaced orphans and vulnerable children created by the insurgency that began in the early 2000s but exploded into major violence in 2009. Some 2.3 million people have been displaced and more than 20,000 killed.
Thanks to the cooperative, Hamzatu also managed to apply for a grant from the ICRC which she used to set up a small vegetable juice business. She also makes the traditional hats worn by men in northern Nigeria.
"Life is so much better. Life is still tough but I am hoping now to be able to save and in time afford my own shop where I can sell the products I make... Mustapha has helped is all so much, he is so good," she said.
Mustapha will receive the award at a special ceremony in Geneva on Monday, October 2.

*some restrictions apply
So to business:
1) Gold to break over U$1,400/oz in 2018. It's a slight cheat of a call, because it's exactly the same as the one that didn't make it last year. But it's my game so bite me. The thinking behind it is of a metal that will do well enough in the year without knocking it out the park. It won't live up to the crazy numbers that the rabid end of the goldbug world will start vomiting at us mid-year.
2) Copper to break U$3.75/lb. The run put in by the world's most important metal commodity was good in 2017, but it's only just begun.
3) Silver to break over U$20/oz in 2018. It's The Jekyll and Hyde metal has spent literally years in the doghouse, ignoring the pump boys in fine style, but we're now moving into macroeconomic conditions that truly benefit both sides of its demand make-up.
4) Barrick to buy Detour Gold. This year's traditional left-field M&A call. At some point ABX will be too pissed about NEM holding the number one spot not to expand, plus it'll be in a rising gold price environment.
5) Andrés Manuel López Obrador to become the next President of Mexico. It'll be third time lucky for AMLO, who will at first cause "OHMAHGAWD COMMIE!!" scare headlines in the English speaking dumbo media, but El Peje won't be that bad for the country or its FDI.
6) Mercedes Araoz will become President of Peru in 2018. It might be via a back door and it might or might not be just temporarily, but she'll make it there and become Peru's first ever woman President.
7) Iván Duque to become the next President of Colombia. This one is a VERY tough call, as even though it's late December and the election is set for late May there field is still large and the race wide open. Duque is by no means guaranteed to make it as a candidate on vote day either, the right wing coalition has to choose its candidate from three parties and he's only one of those. But as it's going to be a very important election for the whole region, I'm going to stick my neck out and call it for the Uribistas.
8) Peru to make the last 16 at the 2018 World Cup Finals. They have a tough group (France, Croatia, Oz) and it's the first time they've been at the WCF for 36 years, but I've watched in amazement the way in which Gareca has taken a bunch of egos and turned them into a efficient and dangerous country team. Now that Paolo Guerrero isn't barred from Russia, I'm tipping Peru as the surprise package of the sporting world's biggest event in the next 12 months.
9) Argentina to win the 2018 World Cup Finals in Russia. Yes I know Brazil is currently head-and-shoulders over the other LatAm teams. Yes I know Germany are worthy faves. Yes I know Argentina only just scraped into the WCF. I don't care. In Leo We Trust.
10) Coco to win Best Animated Film at the 2018 Oscars. Have you seen this jewel yet? It's not just the best animated movie of the year, it's one of the best ever made. Loving Vincent will appeal to the Oscar judges for its artistic input, but Coco is astoundingly good for its genre.
