This one is more for the ladies, I think. :) There's definitely some love in these pictures of our new first family's wedding and afterwards. I love the picture outside after the wedding. It is going to be wonderful to watch them grow in their new role. They are a beautiful coupon and a beautiful family. The Obama Anniversary Album |

"Air Force Research Laboratory officials here recently completed an extensive bioeffects research program for an invisible, counter personnel, directed-energy weapon known as the Active Denial System. Data showed that millimeter waves do not promote cancer or cause reproductive problems, and researchers also defined skin and eye exposure thresholds, as well as levels at which effective repel occurs. Results demonstrate that the Denial System, or ADS, can be used operationally while maintaining a significant safety margin, thus making the device a landmark nonlethal weapon." Tazed, blinded, and burnt, the people no longer even tried to protest.... Energy Beams that heat your skin until you run |

This was the picture FOx News posted of Obama on their home page after his nomination speech. Anyway, my friends and I thought it was funny. They seem to be portraying him with a halo - and is that a ufo or some sort of spirit orb over his shoulder? What? It is just a light? The light of God? That opens up from the sky and shines down on him? I noticed that fox took it down pretty quick. Maybe it was not subtle enough for their mind control efforts. haha What do you think? UFO? Orb? Light from heaven? Fox News Picture of Obama |

Christian Woman Burned, Churches torched, and Nun Raped in Anti-christian violence in India |

Crazies in India have been beatikng, burning and killing 'witches' for a while now - it has been a very serious concern of mine, so I follow what I call 'the burning news' in India. Wiccan leaders have been yelling and screaming about this sort of extreme religious discrimination resulting in murder and disfigurement for a while now, and have sent envoys to try to educate people about the gentle nature of wicca, in hopes of stemming this abuse. I was not expecting this to come up tonight. It so concerns me - this is the country we have decided to outsource all our jobs to. What I repeatedly notice, is, that no matter what the religion, it has about always been a woman that they decide to burn. IMO the US really needs to step up and denounce this sort of violence - yesterday. [quote]BHUBANESWAR, INDIA (BosNewsLife)-- Two persons, including a woman, were burned to death, a pastor critically injured and at least a dozen churches torched as anti Christian violence rocked the Indian state of Orissa, officials confirmed Tuesday, August 26. Orissa's Home Secretary Tarunkanti Mishra told reporters he had received information about the two casualties, as an investigation continued. Earlier on Monday, August 25, news emerged that a nun was raped, a priest beaten and several other Christians missing or injured in the violence. Monday's violence erupted after a protest against the killing over the weekend of Laxmanananda Saraswati, a leader of the hard-line Hindu organization Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and at least four of his associates. It was not clear who was responsible for the murders, but militants blamed Christians for the attacks. A woman, who was not immediately identified, was reportedly burned to death when suspected Hindu militants torched an orphanage run by a Christian organisation at the town of Phutpali in Bargarh District. Twenty children, who were at the orphanage, managed to escape but a pastor suffered serious burn injuries in the attack, BosNewsLife learned.[/quote] Christian Woman Burned, Churches torched, and Nun Raped in Anti-christian violence in India |

The last few years have sent me in a very different direction from the beginning of my adult life. When my son started 3rd grade, a series of events convinced us that I needed to quit work, and homeschool my son. So now my feminist streak has mellowed a bit to the realization that true freedom for women, should include the right to be a housewife and mother, IF that is what a woman wants to do, and feels she must do. So that is where I've found myself...mother, cook, housewife, and with that comes....boredom set in a bit, and so did the realization that living on one income could be challenging. And somehow, I slowly ventured into a new sort of hacking...Retail hacking. It has a simple premise really...how do I get everything...for as little as possible. It started when we decided we wanted to learn some survivalist tactics. One of the things that everyone recommended was...have a stockpile of food. Well, now I not only have a stockpile of food, but I'm keeping my father and sisters pretty well stocked too, and we're making huge donations to the Salvation Army on a fairly regular basis now. Here's my the brunt of my method. I will say that I am very lucky to have several stores within 3 miles of my home. That helps! Well, I will try to make this as short and concise as I can, so I'm going to focus on my method, not on my sources. :) First, you need the largest supply of coupons you can get. I probably get about 35 different free magazines a month just from searching the internet occasionally, looking for free magazines, I search those for free coupons. I also make it a point to get up early on Sundays so I can get the double newspaper for one price - that's twice the coupons. Before Saturday of each week, I search the net to get a list of coupons coming out. Usually on or right at major holidays the newspapers do NOT carry coupons. I also search stores for coupon pads, and I swap coupons and forms with friends. I look for coupons and rebates on line. Basically, I keep my eyes PEELED for coupons. Any coupon. That's important. Yes, sometimes I get things I don't USE - but I do it in order to gain more than I've spent. For instance, a coupon on a glucose monitor, 20.00 off. A store runs a sale, buy same glucose monitor for 20.00, get 20.00 back in register rewards. I just netted a glucose monitor (which I will give away) and 20.00 for whatever tax it cost me. That's why you save THEM ALL. You never know. Next, I get every sales paper for close by stores each week. I carefully match my coupons WITH the sales. I don't rely on ANY pay site to tell me how to do this, it is quite easy to do yourself. I also consider things like store coupons, REBATES, Satisfaction Guaranteed forms, and rewards programs, such as CVS's extra value bucks, free incentives, like movies, and Walgreen's register rewards. THEN, you combine these things. For instance, most stores will give you both ... [ Read More (0.3k in body) ] |

""Take the pattern and draw radial lines from the center of the central depression through each radial jump," Reed e-mailed the Earthfiles.com Web site. "Take the smallest angle sector and call it one (1), then compare the other 10 sectors contained angle to the smallest and pick the closest single digit for the ratio. They come out as 3.141592654." As any math geek knows, that's the first 10 digits of pi, the irrational but extremely important number that's defined as a circle's circumference divided by its diameter." Crop Circle Pi |

"Okay, guys, let's end all of this xenophobic, fearful denial and get serious. Does anyone really believe that two old guys with rope and boards made the 1368-digit Crabwood CD message by hand, late at night while no one was looking, and contrary to all other eyewitness accounts of its creation? You might as well believe in Santa Claus or the Easter bunny! Come on, all of you geeks and nerds worldwide: let's get to it! You can be even more famous than Jodie Foster in Contact if you succeed! (Carl Sagan used a wormhole there too, because his friend Kip Thorne told him they were possible.)" If I look at Crop Circles as nothing but....performance art....I'm still amazed - the 'quality' and quantity of the art just gets better and better! Binary Crop Circle? |

In Pakistan, ancient pagan culture struggles to survive encroaching Islam |

The Kalasha is a pagan civilisation that has lived in the area for at least 2,000 years but is coming under threat from an increasingly militant version of Islam and modernisation. The women wear long black dresses with vividly coloured embroidery and have hair in long plaits and magnificent headdresses decorated with shells. Garish belts and layers of brightly coloured necklaces add to their exotic appearance. On their cheeks are painted dots and tattoos. With improbable pale skin and piercing light eyes, any one of a dozen girls could be on the cover of National Geographic. These are a people who love drinking wine and can freely choose their husband or wife. The women make no attempt to hide their faces and dance with gaiety in public, a sight now so rare in increasingly conservative Pakistan that it is shocking for most of their countrymen. The Kalasha women greet familiar men and women with three kisses on the cheek (left, right, left), and then they kiss each other’s hands, sometimes both hands. Muslim tourists from other parts of Pakistan, typically groups of men, are bewildered by the Kalasha festivities, seemingly unable to fathom that this too is a religion. It seems that it is tales of the Kalasha women that have brought them here, confusing the women’s free will for free love.' In Pakistan, ancient pagan culture struggles to survive encroaching Islam |

"An Omaha toddler was removed from her home after her parents reported an injury to the state, and Child Protective Services kept the girl for four days. No charges will be filed against Crystal and Jay Mitchell, who got their daughter, Brianna, back on Tuesday night. Omaha police officers removed the girl from her parents' home on Friday. The parents said they were trying to do what was right by reporting, but instead found themselves the target of suspicion." CPS steps all over the rights of parents and children, and until the American public wakes up and sees their own creeping statism, this unchecked, out of control beast will continue to harm innocent families, and children will continue to be placed needlessly in foster care, where they are at INCREASED risk of abuse, neglect, death, and being overly medicated on pyschotropic medications.
