GORE, Que. — Deep in the woods of Quebec’s Lower Laurentians, tucked into one corner of a gravel road that goes nowhere in particular, in a place so remote as to be without power lines, there is a church.

Rather, there was a church.

St. John’s Shrewsbury, built in 1858 and the last remaining building of a village that vanished decades ago, was an Anglican Church until Saturday.

Shortly before noon that day in what is now part of the municipality of Gore, St. John’s was deconsecrated in a ceremony that also involved the sprinkling of holy water in its cemetery to cleanse the grounds of all traces of “the craft of Satan” or human malice.

Witches, waves of misguided ghost-hunters and self-proclaimed spiritualists, along with common vandals, have swarmed the church in recent years.

Ingestible Microchips??? What the...!?!?!?!?!

2010-11-09T14:19:00.000-08:00

Look out, your medicine is watching you

By Ben Hirschler
NEW YORK | Mon Nov 8, 2010 5:29pm EST
(Reuters) - Novartis AG plans to seek regulatory approval within 18 months for a pioneering tablet containing an embedded microchip, bringing the concept of "smart-pill" technology a step closer.

The initial program will use one of the Swiss firm's established drugs taken by transplant patients to avoid organ rejection. But Trevor Mundel, global head of development, believes the concept can be applied to many other pills.

"We are taking forward this transplant drug with a chip and we hope within the next 18 months to have something that we will be able to submit to the regulators, at least in Europe," Mundel told the Reuters Health Summit in New York.

"I see the promise as going much beyond that," he added.

Novartis agreed in January to spend $24 million to secure access to chip-in-a-pill technology developed by privately owned Proteus Biomedical of Redwood City, California, putting it ahead of rivals.

The biotech start-up's ingestible chips are activated by stomach acid and send information to a small patch worn on the patient's skin, which can transmit data to a smartphone or send it over the Internet to a doctor.

Father Jose Francisco C. Syquia of the Philippines the Director of the Office of Exorcism for the Archdiocese of Manila, recommends this prayer:

Step 1: Prayer for Protection:

Jesus Crucified, cover me, my family, relatives, and friends and all our possessions with Your Precious Blood. (Recite three times)

Step 2. Prayer for Armor

I put on God's armor to resist the devil's tactics. I stand my ground with truth buckled around my waist and integrity for a breastplate. I carry the shield of faith to put out the burning arrows of the evil one. I accept salvation from God to be my helmet and receive the Word of God from the Spirit to use as a sword.

Step 3. Prayer for Deliverance (said forcefully)

In the Name of Jesus of Nazareth, through His tremendous power as God and through His most powerful and salvific Name, I rebuke, repudiate, bind and cast out all spirits not of the Holy Spirit. I command you, in the Name of Jesus, to depart right now from (state the person or place) and go immediately and directly to the foot of the Cross and never to return.

(Then pray this prayer to the Holy Spirit asking for assistance and His infilling):

O Most Holy Spirit, enter into the empty spaces left by these spirits and fill (state name of person or place) with Your Presence, love, and protection. Please do not allow these spirits to return.

Step 4. Prayer to the Angels.

(Make a personal prayer to the angels to stand guard and remain around the person or the place just delivered to seal them from future demonic influences)

Step 5. Prayer for Cleansing.

Heavenly Father, in the Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior by the power of the Holy Spirit, we pray that the cleansing power of the Most Precious Blood of Your Son come upon us right now. Purify us and wash us clean with the Blood of Jesus from the top of our heads down to the very soles of our feet. Let this Blood penetrate the very marrow of our bones to cleanse us from any entanglement from whatever spirit and refresh our bodies, souls, and spirits. And may the Sign of Your Holy Cross drive away all evil spirits from us. (Make the Sign of the Cross). In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Step 6. Prayer of Praise and Thanksgiving.

Human genes to be injected into goats, cows, and sheep
By Eloise Gibson View as one page

Scientists have been given permission to put human genes into goats, sheep and cows for the next 20 years, to see if the animals will produce human proteins in their milk.

But people will not be pouring the genetically modified milk on their Weetbix just yet - the milk will be discarded.

AgResearch won Environmental Risk Management Authority approval to allow a handful of scientists to breed and keep genetically-modified animals at the Ruakura research facility, near Hamilton.

The work will begin with genetically modified cows, and could be expanded to genetically modified goats within the next year.

Forgotten Study: Abuse in School 100 Times Worse than by Priests!!!

2010-04-02T09:27:00.000-07:00

By James Tillman and John Jalsevac

WASHINGTON, DC, April 1, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) – In the last several weeks such a quantity of ink has been spilled in newspapers across the globe about the priestly sex abuse scandals, that a casual reader might be forgiven for thinking that Catholic priests are the worst and most common perpetrators of child sex abuse.

But according to Charol Shakeshaft, the researcher of a little-remembered 2004 study prepared for the U.S. Department of Education, "the physical sexual abuse of students in schools is likely more than 100 times the abuse by priests."

After effectively disappearing from the radar, Shakeshaft’s study is now being revisited by commentators seeking to restore a sense of proportion to the mainstream coverage of the Church scandal.

According to the 2004 study “the most accurate data available at this time” indicates that “nearly 9.6 percent of students are targets of educator sexual misconduct sometime during their school career.”

Healing and Deliverance

2010-04-01T08:56:00.000-07:00

PRAYER FOR INNER HEALING

Lord Jesus, You came to heal our wounded and troubled hearts. I beg You to heal the torments that cause anxiety in my heart; I beg You, in a particular way, to heal all who are the cause of sin. I beg You to come into my life and heal me of the psychological harms that struck me in my early years and form the injuries that they caused throughout my life. Lord Jesus, You know my burdens. I lay them all on Your Good Shepherd's Heart. I beseech You -- by the merits of the great, open wound in Your heart -- to heal the small wounds that are in mine. Heal the pain of my memories, so that nothing that has happened to me will cause me to remain in pain and anguish, filled with anxiety.
Heal, O Lord, all those wounds that have been the cause of all the evil that is rooted in my life. I want to forgive all those who have offended me. Look to those inner sores that make me unable to forgive. You Who came to forgive the afflicted of heart, please, heal my own heart.
Heal, my Lord Jesus, those intimate wounds that cause me physical illness. I offer You my heart. Accept it, Lord, purify it, and give me the sentiments of Your Divine Heart. Help me to be meek and humble.
Heal me, O Lord, from the pain caused by the death of my loved ones, which is oppressing me. Grant me to regain peace and joy in the knowledge that You are the Resurrection and the Life. Make me an authentic witness to Your Resurrection, Your victory over sin and death, Your living presence among us. Amen."

PRAYER FOR DELIVERANCE
My Lord, You are all powerful, You are God, You are Father. We beg You through the intercession and help of the archangels Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel, for the deliverance of our brothers and sisters who are enslaved by the evil one. All saints of heaven, come to our aid.
From anxiety, sadness, and obsessions, We beg You: Free us, O Lord. From hatred, fornication, envy, We beg You: Free us, O Lord. From thoughts of jealousy, rage, and death. We beg You: Free us, O Lord. From every thought of suicide and abortion. We beg You: Free us, O Lord. From every form of sinful sexuality. We beg You: Free us, O Lord. From every division in our family, and every harmful friendship. We beg You: Free us, O Lord. From every sort of spell, malefice, witchcraft, and every form of the occult. We beg You: Free us, O Lord.

Lord, You Who said, "I leave you peace, my peace I give you," grant that, through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, we may be liberated from every evil spell and enjoy Your peace always. In the Name of Christ, our Lord. Amen."

Deliverance Prayer

2010-04-01T08:53:00.000-07:00

PRAYER AGAINST EVERY EVIL

Spirit of our God, Father, Son , and Holy Spirit, Most Holy Trinity, Immaculate Virgin Mary, angels, archangels, and saints of Heaven, descend upon me. Please purify me, Lord, mold me, fill me with Yourself, use me. Banish all the forces of evil from me, destroy them, vanquish them, so that I can be healthy and do good deeds. Banish from me all spells, witchcraft, black magic, malefice, ties, maledictions, and the evil eye; diabolic infestations, oppressions, possessions; all that is evil and sinful, jealousy, perfidy, envy; physical, psychological, moral, spiritual, diabolical ailments. Burn all these evils in hell, that they may never again touch me or any other creature in the entire world. I command and bid all the powers who molest me -- by the power of God all powerful, in the name of Jesus Christ our Savior, through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin Mary -- to leave me forever, and to be consigned into the everlasting hell, where they will be bound by Saint Michael the archangel, Saint Gabriel, Saint Raphael, our guardian angels, and where they will be crushed under the heel of the Immaculate Virgin Mary.

POWERFUL EXORCISM PRAYER

2010-04-01T08:49:00.000-07:00

POWERFUL EXORCISM PRAYER

Kyrie eleison. God, our Lord, King of ages, All-powerful and Almighty, You Who made everything and Who transforms everything simply by Your will. You Who in Babylon changed into dew the flames of the "seven-times hotter" furnace and protected and saved the three holy children. You are the doctor and the physician of our souls. You are the salvation of those who turn to You. We beseech You to make powerless, banish, and drive out every diabolic power, presence and machination; every evil influence, malefice, or evil eye and all evil actions aimed against your servant. . . Where there is envy and malice, give us an abundance of goodness, endurance, victory, and charity. O Lord, You who love man, we beg You to reach out Your powerful hands and Your most high and mighty arms and come to our aid. Help us, who are made in Your image, send the angel of peace over us, to protect us body and soul. May he keep at bay and vanquish every evil power, every poison or malice invoked against us by corrupt and envious people. Then, under the protection of Your authority may we sing, in gratitude, "The Lord is my salvation; whom should I fear?" I will not fear evil because You are with me, my God, my strength, my powerful Lord, Lord of peace, Father of all ages. Yes, Lord our God, be merciful to us, Your image, and save your servant . . . from every threat or harm from the evil one, and protect him by raising him above all evil. We ask you this through the intercession of our Most Blessed, Glorious Lady, Mary ever Virgin, Mother of God, of the most splendid archangels and all yours saints. Amen."

ANIMA CHRISTI

Soul of Christ, sanctify me; Body of Christ, save me; Blood of Christ, inebriate me; Water from the side of Christ, wash me; Passion of Christ, strengthen me;
O good Jesus, hear me; within Your wounds, hide me; let me never be separated from You; from the evil one, protect me; at the hour of my death, call me; and bid me come to You; that with Your saints, I may praise You forever and ever. Amen.

Pulling Back the Curtain on Swine Flu

2010-01-24T06:59:00.000-08:00

Pulling back the curtain on swine flu

Looks like the swine flu "crisis" has finally unraveled -- just as I've warned right from the start.

A leading European health official is now pushing for an investigation into the so-called pandemic -- and the desperate push to line Big Pharma pockets at your expense.

Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, health chief at the Council of Europe, put it best when he told the European press, "We have had a mild flu -- and a false pandemic."

His resolution calling for the investigation passed the Council, setting the stage for an emergency debate. It seems they've finally realized that the real emergency isn't the flu -- it's the lies we've been told about it, and the dangerous vaccines forced on millions based on those filthy falsehoods.

The good doctor -- turns out there are still a few of us left -- is even calling the non-pandemic "one of the greatest medical scandals of the century."

We're only a decade into this century -- we've still got 90 years to see what else Big Pharma has up its sleeve! But already, this one's been a doozy. It'll be hard to top Vioxx in terms of death and destruction... but as far as swindles go, swine flu takes the prize.

Around the world, supposedly concerned and impartial health "experts" all predicted terrifying (and ultimately nonexistent) consequences from the swine flu... and many of them just so happened to have financial ties to Big Pharma. Maybe that's why the World Health Organization was so quick to change its definition of "pandemic" to make swine flu fit the bill.

These same experts are now warning of a swine flu "third wave" and urging more people to submit to the needle. Listen closely and you might hear them laughing as they count their money.

Give it a rest already, guys. This con job's over.

School staff get insulin instead of swine flu shot

The Associated Press
Tuesday, January 19, 2010; 8:31 PM

WELLESLEY, Mass. -- Wellesley school officials said several staff members at an elementary school had to be taken to the hospital after being injected with insulin rather than the swine flu vaccine. Superintendent Bella Wong said no students were ever in danger at Friday's vaccine clinic for staff at Schofield Elementary School and all the people who got the wrong shot have recovered.

Wong, in a letter to staff and parents Monday, said the insulin belonged to students with diabetes and was provided by their parents.

Wong said in the letter that the school nurse who administered the insulin to staff has been placed on paid administrative leave pending an investigation. She did not give the nurse's name.

Renouncing Ancestral or Generational Sins

2010-01-13T09:26:00.000-08:00

Prayer Of Renunciation Of Ancestral Sins

[Since no one can know for sure what there ancestors may have done, every Christian should pray this prayer. Authorities in Spiritual Warfare report that ancestral issues are the number one cause of demonic harassment in the lives of people.]
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and by the power of his Blood, I take the sword of the Spirit and cut myself free from all generational inherited sins, weaknesses, character defects, negative personality traits, diseases, and genetic disorders. I sever all unhealthy soul-ties and forms of enmeshment or entanglement and cut all bonds that are not of the Lord. I put His Blood and cross between myself and my parents, my grandparents, all ancestors, my siblings, my offspring, my mates, and any unhealthy relationships that I may have had and that my mates have had with others in the past. I cut all bonds of these relationships that are not of the Lord back to the beginning of time, and by the Sword of the Holy Spirit, and in the name of Jesus Christ, and by His Blood, I say that I am now free to reflect the true Image and Likeness of God and free to be the child of God the Lord intended me to be. I declare this, this day in the presence of The Father and of the Son and of the holy Spirit and of all the angels and saints of Heaven. AMEN!

Prayer for Protection

2010-01-13T09:23:00.000-08:00

Hedge or Shield of Protection

This prayer should be prayed for our spiritual maintainance, along with frequent confession and reception of the Eucharist. Remember that you must also strive to maintain an upright lifestyle. Serious din pulls down this protection.

Trusting in the promise that whatever we ask the Father in Jesus’ name He will do, I now ask You Father with confidence with the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God and with all the saints and angels of heaven, to protect me and keep me from the harassment of the devil and his minions.
Father I ask that You build a hedge (shield) of protection around me (and my family, investments, possessions), like that which surrounded Job, and to help me maintain it strong, so that the devil and his minions may have no access or means of breaching it except by Your expressed will.
Father, I know that I am powerless against the spiritual forces of evil, but by the Blood of Jesus, and I recognize my utter dependence on You and Your power. I humbly ask that you look with mercy upon me. Do not look upon my sins, but rather, look at the sufferings of your Beloved Son and see the Victim whose bitter passion and death has reconciled us to You. By the victory of His cross, protect me from all evil and rebuke any evil spirits who wish to attack, influence, or breach Your hedge of protection in any way. I ask you Father to fortify Your Hedge for my protection by the blood of Your Son, Jesus. Send your Holy Angels to watch over me and protect me and ask the Blessed Virgin Mary to cover me with her mantel of protection. Father, all of these things I ask in the most holy name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, through the power of the Holy Spirit. Thank you, Father, for always hearing my prayer. I love You, I worship You, I thank You and I trust in You. AMEN.

Joseph Moshe (MOSSAD Microbiologist): “Swine flu vaccine is bioweapon”
Friday, August 21, 2009
Joseph Moshe, MOSSAD

Today, the MSM are not talking about this case any more. Yesterday, they wanted us to believe that Joseph Moshe was a nutcase and a terrorist, arrested for threatening to bomb the White House. Interesting detail about his arrest (the “Westwood standoff”) was that he seemed to be immune to the 5 cans of tear gas and 5 gallons of law-enforcement grade pepper spray they pumped into his face. He very calmly remained in his car, as the video footage of his arrest shows.

Professor Moshe had called into a live radio show by Dr. A. True Ott, (explanation of Joseph Moshe’s call at 06:00) broadcast on Republic Broadcasting claiming to be a microbiologist who wanted to supply evidence to a States Attorney regarding tainted H1N1 Swine flu vaccines being produced by Baxter BioPharma Solutions. He said that Baxter’s Ukrainian lab was in fact producing a bioweapon disguised as a vaccine. He claimed that the vaccine contained an adjuvant (additive) designed to weaken the immune system, and replicated RNA from the virus responsible for the 1918 pandemic Spanish flu, causing global sickness and mass death.

A rain of rocks
Mysterious pelting of Akron family creates a big sensation in 1878

By Mark J. Price
Beacon Journal staff writer

Published on Monday, Oct 26, 2009

Surely the devil was at work in Hell's Half Acre. What else could account for the strange manifestation that terrified a South Akron family in 1878?

German immigrant Michael Metzler Jr. and his wife, Maria, a native of Lorraine, France, felt the sting of fear when an unseen presence pelted their family with rocks for two weeks.

The Metzlers had 10 children, but only the first six were alive during the ordeal: Mary Elizabeth, 13; Emma, 10; Julia, 8; Joseph, 6; Charles, 3; and Frank, 19 months. Maria's mother, Bridget Noss, 72, also resided with them.

Michael worked as a plasterer. The family lived in a 1 1/2-story brick home on South High
Street extension, the modern-day path of South Broadway, between Thornton and Voris streets.

The neighborhood owed its devilish nickname to the Akron Iron Co., which operated a blast furnace and rolling mill a few blocks to the north.

''Many employees of the rolling mills lived in the vicinity of the plant and since many of them were heavy drinkers and often engaged in fights, that neighborhood was known for years afterward as Hell's Half Acre,'' Akron historian Karl H. Grismer wrote.

The family's troubles began Oct. 8, while Maria Metzler was shucking corn in a field next to the home. Without warning, a violent downpour of rocks fell on her. The stunned housewife couldn't tell where the projectiles originated, so she ran indoors for shelter.

Washington Health Department Suspends Mercury Restrictions for Swine Flu Vaccine

2009-10-17T18:15:00.000-07:00

Posted by: Dr. Mercola
October 17 2009 | 18,456 views

Selecky, flu, swine flu, flu vaccine, swine flu vaccine, mercury, thimerosal, ethylmercury, methylmercuryIn preparation for swine-flu vaccinations next month, the state of Washington's Health Department has temporarily suspended a rule that limits the amount of a mercury preservative in vaccines given to pregnant women and children under the age of 3.

Thimerosal has been eliminated from most vaccines in the United States, and the compound may be linked to autism. But it will be added to the bulk of swine-flu vaccines.

Thimerosal will be added to the vaccine because it is being produced in vials that contain enough medication for 10 shots. The mercury compound kills bacteria, lowering the risk that the drug will be contaminated by needles used to withdraw separate doses.

A smaller amount of mercury-free vaccine will be produced in single-dose vials. Nasal sprays do not contain mercury but are not recommended for children under the age of 2 and pregnant women, because they contain live, weakened virus.

Five biopharmaceutical companies have been awarded massive contracts by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for development and production of more than 195 million doses of swine flu vaccine.

The companies -- Novartis, GlaxoSmithKline, MedImmune, Australian drug maker CSL, and Sanofi-Pasteur -- will likely make a great deal of money.

Drug companies have sold $1.5 billion worth of swine flu shots, in addition to the $1 billion for seasonal flu they booked earlier this year.

These inoculations are part of a much wider and rapidly growing $20 billion global vaccine market.

"The vaccine market is booming," says Bruce Carlson, spokesperson at market research firm Kalorama, which publishes an annual survey of the vaccine industry. "It's an enormous growth area for pharmaceuticals at a time when other areas are not doing so well," he says, noting that the pipeline for more traditional blockbuster drugs such as Lipitor and Nexium has thinned.

As always with pandemic flus, taxpayers are footing the $1.5 billion check for the 250 million swine flu vaccines that the government has ordered so far and will be distributing free to doctors, pharmacies and schools. In addition, Congress has set aside more than $10 billion this year to research flu viruses, monitor H1N1's progress and educate the public about prevention.

Drugmakers pocket most of the revenues from flu sales, with Sanofi-Pasteur, Glaxo Smith Kline and Novartis cornering most of the market.

But some say it's not just drugmakers who stand to benefit. Doctors collect copayments for special office visits to inject shots, and there have been assertions that these doctors actually profit handsomely from these vaccinations.

The Fed Fighter: DealBook’s Ron Paul Interview

Ron Paul
Fed

The fallout from the credit crisis has put the financial system of the United States under a microscope. Banker pay, lending practices and regulatory oversight are now topics of mainstream interest for the first time since the Great Depression.

As Congress debates whether or not to give more power to the Federal Reserve to watch over the financial system, Ron Paul, the Republican congressman from Texas, is arguing, as he has for years, for the government to go in the opposite direction and actually cut the Fed’s powers.

In an interview with DealBook on Thursday, Mr. Paul discussed his new book, “End the Fed,” as well as his views on Wall Street.

The outspoken lawmaker contends that the government is essentially controlled by the Fed and in collusion with Wall Street, and has created an unsustainable economic system through the excess printing of money. He predicts that the system will eventually break down and the dollar will collapse, creating economic chaos.

© 2009 WorldNetDaily

The U.S. Forest Service has banned the name of Jesus from decorations being assembled by children in Arizona for a blue spruce from the state that will become the Capitol Christmas Tree this year, and a legal firm is challenging the censorship.

"Banning Christmas from the Capitol Christmas tree is just absurd. Christian students shouldn't be discriminated against for expressing their religious beliefs," said Jonathan Scruggs, litigation staff counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund.

"The First Amendment does not allow government officials to exclude school children's ornaments for the capitol's Christmas tree merely because they communicate a religious viewpoint," he said yesterday.

The organization has sent a letter to state and federal officials, including Arizona Gov. Janice Brewer, who are supervising the program, calling on them to stop enforcement of the prohibition.

American Police Force Corporation Takes Over Small Town Police Force and Prisoner-Less Jail

HARDIN, Mont. (CBS/AP) This is the strange story of how American Police Force, a little known company which claims to specialize in training military and security forces overseas, has seemingly taken control of a $27 million, never-used jail, and a rural Montana town's nonexistent police force.

After arriving in this tiny city with three Mercedes SUVs marked with the logo of a police department that has never existed, representatives of the obscure California security company said preparations were under way to take over Hardin's jail, which has no prisoners.

Crucifixion in Sudan

Christians are ‘crucified’
in guerrilla raids
By Simon Caldwell

25 September 2009

Marauding bands of guerrillas have crucified seven Christians during a series of raids on villages in Sudan.

One of the men was tied to a tree and mutilated while six other victims were nailed to pieces of wood fastened to the ground and killed.

Villagers who found their bodies near the town of Nzara said it was like a "grotesque crucifixion scene".

Bishop Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala of Tombura-Yambio has now appealed for international help to stop the attacks by members of the Lord's Resistance Army.

He said his government appeared powerless to prevent attacks by members of the guerrilla force based in northern Uganda. He spoke out after a spate of killings and abductions in two towns near the borders of the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

In one instance guerrillas stormed into Our Lady Queen of Peace church in Ezo during a novena prayer and desecrated the Host, the altar and the building before abducting 17 people mostly in their teens and 20s. One of the captives was later tied to a tree and killed while 13 others in the group are still missing, according to Aid to the Church in Need, a charity helping persecuted Christians.

The bishop said the attack, which happened on the feast of the Assumption, was "a huge shock to us".

"It was hard to take in the fact that we were so exposed to such a risk," he said. "The attackers clearly wanted to harm the people because they knew they were at prayer.

A Village To Raise a Child???

2009-09-28T12:21:00.000-07:00

Apparently, Obama wants parents to start spending LESS time with their children. The President, according to the article below, thinks that children are not as proficient in school as the children in other countries. The article also says that they would be safer in school and parents are not capable of caring for their children from 3pm to 7pm! Is this "Big Brother" making a move on our children and our Parenthood?

You decide...

By LIBBY QUAID, AP Education Writer Libby Quaid, Ap Education Writer – Mon Sep 28, 9:11 am ET

WASHINGTON – Students beware: The summer vacation you just enjoyed could be sharply curtailed if President Barack Obama gets his way.

Obama says American kids spend too little time in school, putting them at a disadvantage with other students around the globe.

"Now, I know longer school days and school years are not wildly popular ideas," the president said earlier this year. "Not with Malia and Sasha, not in my family, and probably not in yours. But the challenges of a new century demand more time in the classroom."

The president, who has a sixth-grader and a third-grader, wants schools to add time to classes, to stay open late and to let kids in on weekends so they have a safe place to go.

"Our school calendar is based upon the agrarian economy and not too many of our kids are working the fields today," Education Secretary Arne Duncan said in a recent interview with The Associated Press.

Fifth-grader Nakany Camara is of two minds. She likes the four-week summer program at her school, Brookhaven Elementary School in Rockville, Md. Nakany enjoys seeing her friends there and thinks summer school helped boost her grades from two Cs to the honor roll.

But she doesn't want a longer school day. "I would walk straight out the door," she said.

Domonique Toombs felt the same way when she learned she would stay for an extra three hours each day in sixth grade at Boston's Clarence R. Edwards Middle School.

Live Forever...Here in This World...No Thanks!

2009-09-27T12:34:00.000-07:00

SCIENTIST Ray Kurzweil reckons man could become immortal in just a few years’ time.

The 61-year-old American – dubbed the smartest futurist on Earth by Microsoft founder Bill Gates – has consistently predicted new technologies many years before they arrived.

Here, Ray explains why he believes today’s 60-year-olds could go on to live forever.

WE are living through the most exciting period of human history.

Computer technology and our understanding of genes – our body’s software programs – are accelerating at an incredible rate.

I and many other scientists now believe that in around 20 years we will have the means to reprogramme our bodies’ stone-age software so we can halt, then reverse, ageing. Then nano-technology will let us live for ever.

Already, blood cell-sized submarines called nanobots are being tested in animals. These will soon be used to destroy tumours, unblock clots and perform operations without scars.

Ultimately, nanobots will replace blood cells and do their work thousands of times more effectively.

Within 25 years we will be able to do an Olympic sprint for 15 minutes without taking a breath, or go scuba-diving for four hours without oxygen.

Heart-attack victims – who haven’t taken advantage of widely available bionic hearts – will calmly drive to the doctors for a minor operation as their blood bots keep them alive.

Nanotechnology will extend our mental capacities to such an extent we will be able to write books within minutes.

If we want to go into virtual-reality mode, nanobots will shut down brain signals and take us wherever we want to go. Virtual sex will become commonplace. And in our daily lives, hologram-like figures will pop up in our brain to explain what is happening.

These technologies should not seem at all fanciful. Our phones now perform tasks we wouldn’t have dreamed possible 20 years ago. When I was a student in 1965, my university’s only computer cost £7million and was huge.

Today your mobile phone is a million times less expensive and a thousand times more powerful. That’s a billion times more capable for the same price.

According to my theory – the Law of Accelerating Returns – we will experience another billion-fold increase in technological capability for the same cost in the next 25 years.

So we can look forward to a world where humans become cyborgs, with artificial limbs and organs.

This might sound far-fetched, but remember, diabetics already have artificial pancreases and Parkinson’s patients have neural implants.

As we approach the 21st Century’s second decade, stunning medical breakthroughs are a regular occurrence.

In 2008 we discovered skin cells can be transformed into the equivalent of embryonic cells. So organs will soon be repaired and eventually grown.

In a few years most people will have their entire genetic sequences mapped. Before long, we will all know the diseases we are susceptible to and gene therapies will mean virtually no genetic problems that can’t be erased.

It’s important to ensure we get to take advantage of the upcoming technologies by living well and not getting hit by a bus.

By the middle of the next century we will have back-up copies of the information in our bodies and brains that make us who we are. Then we really will be immortal.

H1N1 Vaccine PLUS Implantable Chip...Wow, What a Deal!

2009-09-24T09:38:00.000-07:00

Now, let's think about this... If, Verichip can now LEGALLY scan people for viruses AND in order to scan the people, the person must have an IMPLANTABLE CHIP implanted in them, then I wonder how all those people with VIRUSES will get a Chip IMPLANTED in them??? Could it be through FORCED VACCINATIONS??? It seems to make sense now, doesn't it? Be aware...we seem to be getting one step closer... Now don't get me wrong, some people may find it attractive to be implanted with a foreign body, but I suspect the great majority of us believe that we don't need "big brother" getting that close! Read The Article below.

UPDATE 1-VeriChip shares jump after H1N1 patent license win
Mon Sep 21, 2009 3:11pm EDT

Sept 21 (Reuters) - Shares of VeriChip Corp (CHIP.O)
tripled after the company said it had been granted an exclusive
license to two patents, which will help it to develop
implantable virus detection systems in humans.

The patents, held by VeriChip partner Receptors LLC, relate
to biosensors that can detect the H1N1 and other viruses, and
biological threats such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus
aureus, VeriChip said in a statement.

The technology will combine with VeriChip's implantable
radio frequency identification devices to develop virus triage
detection systems.

The triage system will provide multiple levels of
identification -- the first will identify the agent as virus or
non-virus, the second level will classify the virus and alert
the user to the presence of pandemic threat viruses and the
third level will identify the precise pathogen, VeriChip said
in a white paper published May 7, 2009.

Shares of VeriChip were up 186 percent at $3.28 Monday late
afternoon trade on Nasdaq. They had touched a year high of
$3.43 earlier in the session.

Nano Particles used in Untested H1N1 Swine Flu Vaccines

F. William Engdahl
Global Research
September 14, 2009

Vaccines which have been approved by the responsible government authorities for vaccination against the alleged H1N1 Influenza A Swine Flu have been found to contain nano particles. Vaccine makers have been experimenting with nanoparticles as a way to “turbo charge” vaccines for several years. Now it has come out that the vaccines approved for use in Germany and other European countries contain nanoparticles in a form that reportedly attacks healthy cells and can be deadly.
featured stories Nano Particles used in Untested H1N1 Swine Flu Vaccines

There is only one small problem with vaccines containing nanoparticles — they can be deadly and at the least cause severe irreparable health damage.

In 2007 researchers at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) announced in an article in the journal, Nature Biotechnology, that they had developed a “nanoparticle that can deliver vaccines more effectively, with fewer side effects, and at a fraction of the cost of current vaccine technologies.” The article went on to describe the effects of their breakthrough: “At a mere 25 nanometers, these particles are so tiny that once injected, they flow through the skin’s extracellular matrix, making a beeline to the lymph nodes. Within minutes, they’ve reached a concentration of DCs thousands of times greater than in the skin. The immune response can then be extremely strong and effective.” 1

Cass Sunstein
TEL AVIV – There is no moral concern regarding cloning human beings since human embryos, which develop into a baby, are "only a handful of cells," argued President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein.

"If scientists will be using and cloning embryos only at a very early stage when they are just a handful of cells (say, before they are four days old), there is no good reason for a ban (on cloning)," wrote Sunstein, who was confirmed by the Senate last week as administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs.

The Incredible Ghost Fleet Off The Coast Of Singapore
Jay Yarow|Sep. 14, 2009,

Ghost fleet Off the coast of Singapore is a collection of ships larger than the U.S. and English navies just sitting idle, waiting out the recession. It's a spectacular image, capturing our bruised global economy better than any we've see thus far.

The Daily Mail has pictures of the idled fleet, and the full story about the decline in the world's trade business.

At this time last year one of the massive cargo ships carrying 80,000 tons of cargo would cost $50,000 a day. Now it's just $5,500. To send a 40 foot steel container of goods from China to the UK cost $300,000 in the summer of 2008. Now it costs just $10,000. The world could have 25% of its ships sitting idle in the next two years.
While the President says the economy has been pulled from the brink, and economists say the recession has ended, these ships floating in Asian seas are big reminder that we're still far off from recovery.

Is Another 9/11 Set to Unfold?

2009-09-09T17:09:00.000-07:00

Is another 9/11 set to unfold?

By Lee Benson

Deseret News
Published: Saturday, Sept. 5, 2009 9:32 p.m. MDT

Earlier this year, quite by happenstance, I read a book written by Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter James B. Stewart.

"Heart of a Soldier" tells the story of two men who, well before it happened, foretold not only of the terrorist attack of 9/11 but also the 1993 bombing in the World Trade Center parking garage that preceded it.

One of the men, Rick Rescorla, was chief of security for Morgan Stanley with an office in the World Trade Center. He died on 9/11, but not before he shepherded all but six of Morgan Stanley's 2,700 employees to safety because of a well-prepared and well-executed evacuation plan. He'd have made it out, too, had he not gone back in the building looking for those six.

The other man, Daniel J. Hill, is still alive.

With another Sept. 11 approaching I wanted to talk to The Man Who Predicted 9/11.

Although the primary focus in Stewart's book is on Rescorla — a bona fide hero for his actions on 9/11 — I found Hill to be an even more fascinating character.

It was Hill who converted to Islam as a young U.S. Army paratrooper stationed in Beirut in 1958. It was Hill who learned fluent Arabic. It was Hill who joined the Mujahedeen Freedom Fighters in Afghanistan and fought the Soviet invasion there in the 1980s. It was Hill who personally met Osama bin Laden. It was Hill who used information from Islamic extremists to warn Rescorla that terrorists would use the underground parking garage for a car bomb attack on the World Trade Center. It was Hill who asked the U.S. government to assist him in an assassination attempt on bin Laden in 1998 (the request was rejected). And it was Hill who warned the FBI just weeks before Sept. 11, 2001, that his Mideast contacts told him "something big" was about to happen in the United States, in New York, Washington, D.C., or Philadelphia — maybe all three.

If the case actually goes to arguments before U.S. District Judge David Carter, it will be the first time the merits of the dispute have been argued in open court, according to one of the attorneys working on the issue.

In a highly anticipated hearing today before Carter, several motions were heard, including a resolution to long-standing questions about whether attorney Orly Taitz properly served notice on the defendants, which she had.

Health Officials Admit Fast Tracked H1N1 Vaccines Will Not Be Tested for Safety
in Health

By Harold Gray
JustGetThere |
The media is reporting on the governments preparation for a massive vaccination campaign this fall for the hyped up H1N1 hybrid flu virus. Recently Katherine Sebelius, the Health and Human Services Secretary, granted legal immunity for vaccine manufacturers during the stage 6 pandemic declared by the WHO. Even more troubling than the new vaccines or antivirals themselves, is the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) declared by the FDA, which enables the use of expired stockpiles of Tamiflu or Relenza, and non-compliance with label requirements. The EUA authority will also permit the FDA to allow the use of “unapproved or uncleared medical products” during an established emergency.

The new stock of vaccines the governments purchased, has been fast tracked for approval by the FDA. Health officials admit that the clinical tests are about dosage amounts, and not safety. So the new vaccines being approved for the fall campaign, have the potential to cause severe harm or death, due to the lack of safety tests.

A "pandemic response bill" currently making its way through the Massachusetts state legislature would allow authorities to forcefully quarantine citizens in the event of a health emergency, compel health providers to vaccinate citizens, authorize forceful entry into private dwellings and destruction of citizen property and impose fines on citizens for noncompliance.

If citizens refuse to comply with isolation or quarantine orders in the event of a health emergency, they may be imprisoned for up to 30 days and fined $1,000 per day that the violation continues.

Mexico City Legalizes Personal Drug Usage...WOW

2009-08-22T11:16:00.000-07:00

Wow! First Mexico City legalized Abortion and now Drugs. Did Obama's visit to Mexico have anything to do with this? You have to wonder about this decision coming on the heals of such a momentous occasion as the meeting of the Presidents of Canada Mexico and USA, earlier this month in Guadalajara. This is quite a different approach to the 'War on Drugs' we've heard so much about.

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Mexico decriminalized small amounts of marijuana, cocaine and heroin on Friday—a move that prosecutors say makes sense even in the midst of the government's grueling battle against drug traffickers.

Prosecutors said the new law sets clear limits that keep Mexico's corruption-prone police from extorting casual users and offers addicts free treatment to keep growing domestic drug use in check.

"This is not legalization, this is regulating the issue and giving citizens greater legal certainty," said Bernardo Espino del Castillo of the attorney general's office.

The new law sets out maximum "personal use" amounts for drugs, also including LSD and methamphetamine. People detained with those quantities no longer face criminal prosecution.

Arrested For Going To Church?

The person in the article below may possibly need God more than many others. Who are we to deny him that? I am not saying that child molesters should not be supervised, but they should be allowed to worship at church.

Arrested for going to church
Sex offender charged after attending church with child care facility. Law being challenged.
By Jesse James DeConto

Nichols has lived in a tent near Sanford for nearly three months. He and his fiancee are expecting a baby.

James Nichols said he was flabbergasted when a Chatham County sheriff's deputy arrested him in March for a simple weekly activity: going to church.

Nichols, 31, had served six years in prison for indecent liberties with a teenage girl and attempted second-degree rape. He was released last September and started attending Moncure Baptist Church. He met with the pastor, disclosed his crimes and often sat in the front row for worship.

But after the Chatham sheriff's office investigated an alleged sexual assault by another person in the church parking lot in March, Nichols was arrested because he was attending the church, which has a child care facility on its premises.

“Anyone in this world has a right to practice their religion, and whether they've made any mistake in their life, they should have the right,” Nichols said.

But a state law that took effect in December forbids registered sex offenders from being within 300 feet of a school, playground, day care or children's museum.

“The law we passed doesn't let them go to church, because there are nurseries in churches,” said state Rep. Verla Insko, D-Chapel Hill, the only legislator in the House and Senate to oppose the law.

Nichols, with the help of the American Civil Liberties Union, is challenging the law in Chatham County. A coalition of social workers and psychologists who treat sex abusers have been fighting it in the legislature. Some think churches should play a role in rehabilitating offenders.

Proponents, though, want to keep sexual offenders away from children at all costs, even after they've finished their prison time.

Swine flu panic an absurd falsehood

DailyRecord.com DANIEL ALBANESE • August 16, 2009

The U.S. government has bought 195 million doses of swine flu vaccine. In tough economic times where almost one out of 10 Americans are jobless, it begs to ask; why?

As of July 24, which is the last day Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will report specific numbers on swine flu cases and deaths, 302 people have been killed due to the swine flu pandemic out of 43,771 total cases in America. Food for thought: on average, the regular seasonal flu kills 36,000 people per year in the U.S. and between 250,000 and 500,000 people worldwide.

Swine Flu Vaccine Side Effect...CANCER???

German health expert's swine flu warning Does virus vaccine increase the risk of cancer?
07.08.2009 - 15:29 UHR Bild.com

The swine flu vaccine has been hit by new cancer fears after a German health expert gave a shock warning about its safety.

Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg is a politician and a specialist in lungs, hygiene and environmental medicine. He is the chairman of the health committee in the German parliament and European Council.

Lung specialist Wolfgang Wodarg has said that there are many risks associated with the vaccine for the H1N1 virus.

He has grave reservations about the firm Novartis who are developing the vaccine and testing it in Germany. The vaccination is injected “with a very hot needle”, Wodarg said.

The nutrient solution for the vaccine consists of cancerous cells from animals and "we do not know if there could be an allergic reaction".

But more importantly, some people fear that the risk of cancer could be increased by injecting the cells.

The vaccine - as Johannes Löwer, president of the Paul Ehrlich Institute, has pointed out - can also cause worse side effects than the actual swine flu virus.

Wodrag also described people’s fear of the pandemic as an "orchestration": “It is great business for the pharmaceutical industry,” he told the ‘Neuen Presse’.

Swine flu is not very different from normal flu. “On the contrary if you look at the number of cases it is nothing compared to a normal flu outbreak,” he added.

The chairman of the health committee in the European Council has urged for a careful and calm reaction to the virus.

Up until now, the producers of the vaccine did not know how many orders they would have by the autumn, but the German Government is now a guaranteed customer.

Father Raymond J. de Souza: A tale of two Kennedys
Posted: August 12, 2009, 9:48 AM by NP Editor

Two of the last three Kennedys have taken centre stage this week. Yesterday, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, founder of the Special Olympics, died in Hyannis, Mass. Today, Senator Ted Kennedy is being awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. For the last of the Kennedy sons, aged 77 and suffering from brain cancer, the ceremony in Washington is something of a valedictory.

After the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy, the Kennedy family had two paths before it -- one represented by Eunice and her husband, Sargent, and the other by the last surviving brother, Ted.

On July 20, 1968--just weeks after RFK's death -- Eunice convened the first Special Olympics, a movement of dignity and hope for mentally disabled children. It was born of Eunice's love for her mentally disabled sister, Rosemary; her firm defence of the dignity of every human life; and her deep Catholic faith. Eunice and Sargent (who also founded the Peace Corps and was the architect of many of the Great Society programs for the poor) changed the way we think about people with special needs.

Nuns Chase Robber Into Woods
Man Believed To Have Robbed Nearby House

INDEPENDENCE, Mo. -- A man who robbed a house and ran near an Independence convent was chased from the building by one of the nuns Thursday morning, police said.

Police said the man took a shotgun and other items form a house and then ran near the Sisters of St. Francis convent. Sisters Connie and Catarina said they saw a suspicious man walking in a bean field behind the convent.

At first the sisters thought he may have been a hunter, which they said is illegal. The two nuns said they approached the man and saw that he had a shotgun in one hand, boxing gloves and other items in the other hand. They said when they began to question the man, he ran into a nearby wooded area.

Ghosts at Naval Museum

Eerie occurrences at naval museum attract ghost hunters
Ghost hunters from Alabama to investigate museum for paranormal activity
By Tim Chitwood - tchitwood@ledger-enquirer.com

Books are flying off the shelves down at Columbus' National Civil War Naval Museum.

One hit a customer square in the back. Others from the museum gift shop’s rear bookshelves land up to 7 feet away — sometimes upright, as if someone set them there in a flash.

An invisible flash, that would be, because no one’s there to move them.

Photo Illustration/Mike Haskey mhaskey@ledger-enquirer.com This is the keychain rack in the gift shop of The National Civil War Naval Museum that some people have said they’ve seen spinning on its own. 06/24/09

Jerry Franklin, the museum’s maintenance supervisor, said he was standing near the gift shop entrance one day when he saw a book shoot across an aisle and smack a woman in the back, right between the shoulder blades.

She spun around, saw no one there, then looked around the store until she made eye contact with Franklin. He shrugged.

This is the sort of eerie experience a team of ghost hunters will check out next weekend.

To workers who run the gift shop, this is common: “This happens all the time,” said Susan Ingram, the 1002 Victory Drive museum’s visitor service manager.

On average, a book shoots off the shelf every two weeks or so, sometimes more often, she said: “It kind of goes in cycles.”

Ghost hunt

An Alabama Paranormal Research Team led by Faith Serafin of Salem will conduct a seven-hour investigation in the museum after it closes. Serafin did not want to say exactly when, fearing pranksters might play ghosts.

“We bring in lots of different kinds of equipment, from video to audio, electromagnetic field detectors, and we have an abundance of software that will help us amplify sound or an image,” she said.

“We research all the reports very thoroughly. We kind of figure out whether or not there is a correlation between a story and evidence that we pick up, to determine whether or not we can actually say that this location has some type of abnormal or paranormal activity.”

Her group formed about two years ago, she said.

Spin zone

The book Franklin saw hit a woman in the back was a 10-by-10-inch hardback titled “The Confederate Navy: The Ships, Men and Organization 1861-1865.” Workers afterward discovered the book’s spine was broken and torn. Lane Palmer, a school teacher and museum volunteer, bought it.

Books aren’t the only gift-shop goods moving on their own: On the front counter, key rings, pins and whistles hang upon a square, black spindle. Workers say sometimes it spins without anyone touching it, and the motion is not spurred by a fan or air-conditioner.

Bruce Smith, the Port Columbus National Civil War Naval Museum’s executive director, would not go so far as to say the place is haunted:

“I am prepared to say that we have these continued unexplainable dumping of books on the floor. … We don’t know what the deal is. We’ve looked, and we can’t figure it out. We think we’ve got these things anchored pretty good, and the next thing we know, crash! And there’s nobody in the store.”

Congressman Smith: Mrs. Clinton, choose either Our Lady of Guadalupe or Margaret Sanger
Congressmen Chris Smith
Washington D.C., Apr 2, 2009 / 01:25 pm (CNA).- In an impassionate address to the House of Representatives on Tuesday, Congressmen Chris Smith (R-NJ,) argued that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s visit to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe and the speech delivered immediately after, in Houston, Texas, during Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger Award were completely inexcusable.

Smith said that Clinton’s visit to the Catholic Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City, where she presented a bouquet of flowers on behalf of the American people, was “a very nice gesture.”

But the gesture was at odds with her speech while receiving the Margaret Sanger Award.

“In her remarks, Secretary Clinton said she was ‘in awe’ --I repeat, ‘in awe’-- of Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood.”

“To our distinguished Secretary of State, I respectfully ask: Are you kidding? In ‘awe’ of Margaret Sanger, who said in 1921, ‘Eugenics…is the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political, and social problems’ and who also said in 1922, ‘The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it’?” asked Congressman Smith.

(CNSNews.com) - Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to minimize suffering and death from influenza, the Health and Human Services Department says on its Web site.

But some senior citizens complain they’ve been left off the list of people who will be first in line to get the swine flu vaccination, when it is ready. One CNSNews.com reader suggested the omission is in line with the Obama’s administration’s plan to "minimize" health care for the elderly, as the reader put it.

Madonna Accused of Satanic Provocation

Madonna accused of satanic provocation
Agencies Posted online: Friday , Aug 07, 2009 at 0940 hrs
London : Pop diva Madonna has come into the ambit of religious controversy again, with a former president comparing her to the Satan.

Nobel Prize-winning former Polish president Lech Walesa has expressed his displeasure with the fact that Madonna's upcoming show 'Sticky & Sweet' is happening on the same day as the Feast Of The Assumption, the day Mother Mary ascended to Heaven, Femalefirst reported.

"It is a Satanic provocation. I am a man of faith and ask for such events not to happen on such an important feast in my religion," said the devout Roman Catholic.

Madonna's scheduled concert was described as "an attack by the devil on our immaculate Catholic nation" by Father Stanislaw Malkowski who is leading the protest against the controversial pop star.

Madonna had earlier run into a controversy with the Catholic church for the controversial video of her song 'Like a Prayer' in 1989 and more recently with an on-stage dedication of 'Like A Virgin' to the Pope last year.

The impending concert has created a wave of protest in the Catholic nation with Parliamentarian Marian Brudzynski saying, "The concert of a highly perverse singer who calls herself 'Madonna' is deeply humiliating to Warsaw residents and Poles in general."

The fact that the 50-year-old star is a follower of the Jewish cult 'Kabbalah' has added fuel to the fire.

Women Religious Investigated by Vatican

Catholic sisters queried about doctrine, fidelity

By ERIC GORSKI (AP) – 1 day ago

A Vatican-ordered investigation into Roman Catholic sisters in the U.S., shrouded in mystery when it was announced seven months ago, is shaping up to be a tough examination of whether women's religious communities have strayed too far from church teaching.

The review "is intended as a constructive assessment and an expression of genuine concern for the quality of the life" of roughly 59,000 U.S. Catholic sisters, according to a Vatican working paper delivered in the past few days to leaders of 341 religious congregations that describes the scope in new detail.

Face of Christian Angel Uncovered in Famous Mosque

2009-08-06T08:20:00.000-07:00

Friday, July 24, 2009

ANKARA, Turkey — A Turkish official says restoration workers have uncovered the never-before-seen mosaic face of an angel at Istanbul's Haghia Sophia — a former Byzantine cathedral.

The cathedral's Christian mosaics were covered up in line with Muslim custom shortly after Constantinople — the former name for Istanbul — fell to the Ottomans in 1453 and the cathedral was turned into a mosque.

Some of the mosaics were revealed after it was turned into a museum in 1935, but the angel image remained covered.

Ahmet Emre Bilgili, the head of culture and tourism affairs for Istanbul, told the Associated Press on Friday that restoration workers will now work to uncover a second mosaic angel image.

...And This is Why The Church Has Rules

2009-08-06T05:52:00.000-07:00

Has Mel Gibson Gone Completely INSANE, or Just a Little?
I suppose anyone can make up their own rules, if they OWN THEIR OWN CHURCH!
Read the following article. Gibson's behavior is ridiculous.

"No wonder Mel Gibson is giving the thumbs-up. Full time has been called on his 28-year marriage to Robyn Moore.

The Pope didn't give the order, though. That edict came from Mel's 90-year-old father Hutton Gibson, and it paves the way for his son to marry his pregnant Russian girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva by Christmas.

Having had his request turned down by Catholic bishops, Mel, 53, pleaded his case in front of a tribunal of members from the Church of the Holy Family, his breakaway Catholic church in Malibu.

Hutton, who once studied for the priesthood only to leave before he was ordained, presided over the hearing. He granted Mel's annulment request after his son presented evidence that his union to Robyn, 53, was never a true marriage — even though they wed in a Catholic ceremony in Australia in June 1980.

"Especially important was Mel's description of how he felt pressured into the marriage in the first place because Robyn was pregnant," a family insider says.

"Those feelings indicated to Hutton that it couldn't have been a true marriage, and so he felt it must be invalid.

"After the discussion ended, Hutton pounded his fist on the table and said, ‘It is true that this union did not have what it takes to be a true marriage.'"

The family are at pains to keep the annulment, which took place a month after Robyn filed for divorce in April, a secret — but maybe not too secret.

"Mel hopes some of the bishops he has befriended recently can be persuaded to give him a proper Catholic annulment," the insider says.

Either way, Mel is forging ahead with plans for a Christmas wedding to Oksana, 39, despite her cold feet over his recent behaviour, which includes gambling escapades in Las Vegas."

Catholic Archbishop Slams Facebook

August 04, 2009 | by Christopher Nickson, Digital Trends
The leader of the Catholic Church in England and Wales has criticized social networking sites, e-mails, and texting.

According to Archbishop Vincent Nichols, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales, the accoutrements of the digital life – social networking sites, texting, and e-mails, are undermining community life.

Talking to the Sunday Telegraph, he said that friendships were becoming more “transient,” with quantity valued over quality, and claimed that was a key factor in suicides among young people.

"Friendship is not a commodity," he said.

"Friendship is something that is hard work and enduring when it's right."

He said that society was losing its interpersonal skills because, more and more, people were using media that were not real communities.

"Facebook and MySpace might contribute towards communities, but I'm wary about it."

"Among young people often a key factor in their committing suicide is the trauma of transient relationships."

"They throw themselves into a friendship or network of friendships, then it collapses and they're desolate."

"It's an all-or-nothing syndrome that you have to have in an attempt to shore up an identity; a collection of friends about whom you can talk and even boast."

Vatican to Cast out Doctors, Women for Abortion Pill Use

2009-08-03T19:32:00.000-07:00

Times of India LONDON: As Italy authorised the use of the abortion pill Mifepristone, the Vatican threatened to excommunicate doctors who prescribe it and women
who take the pill.

After a heated four-hour session, Italy’s drug regulation agency announced its decision on Saturday following opposition from the church and Catholic politicians, including many from PM Silvio Berlusconi’s centre- Right government.

The Vatican, which has battled in the United Nations and other forums to halt acceptance of the abortion pill, reacted with dismay to the decision to approve limited use of the Mifepristone that has been available in much of the rest of Europe since the 1990s.

Archbishop Rino Fisichella, head of the Pope's thinktank on bioethical issues, the Pontifical Academy for Life, said: “The fact of taking a pill may be less traumatic for a woman, but it does not change the substance. It is still abortion.”

He underlined that the consequences for a Catholic - automatic excommunication - were "the same as those for surgical abortion", the Guardian newspaper reported on Satuday.

Elio Sgreccia, another top official from the Academy for Life, said that women taking the pill or doctors administering it incur automatic excommunication under church law, according to media reports.

Pope Benedict to Catholics: Kneel For Communion

2009-08-03T05:42:00.000-07:00

NewsBlaze.com Published: August 01,2009

"Whosoever shall eat this bread, or drink the chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the Body and of the Blood of the Lord... For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the Body of the Lord" - 1 Corinthians 11:27,28

Pope Benedict to Catholics:
Kneel and Receive on the Tongue Only

Pope Benedict XVI does not want the faithful receiving Communion in their hand nor does he want them standing to receive Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. According to Vatican liturgist, Monsignor Guido Marini, the pope is trying to set the stage for the whole church as to the proper norm for receiving Communion for which reason communicants at his papal Masses are now asked to kneel and receive on the tongue.

The Holy Father's reasoning is simple: "We Christians kneel before the Blessed Sacrament because, therein, we know and believe to be the presence of the One True God." (May 22, 2008)

According to the pope the entire Church should kneel in adoration before God in the Eucharist. "Kneeling in adoration before the Eucharist is the most valid and radical remedy against the idolatries of yesterday and today" (May 22, 2008)

Persecution Watch...Muslims Burn 6 Christians To Death

Muslims burn 6 Christians to death after false allegations

Lahore, Pakistan, Aug 2, 2009 / 11:31 am (CNA).- Religious extremists struck again in Pakistan on Saturday when a violent mob of Muslims looted and burned a Christian neighborhood, killing six Christians by burning them to death. The attacks took place in reaction to a rumor that the Koran was desecrated in a nearby village.

The violence, which took place in the central Punjab town of Gorja City, occurred early on Saturday when a throng of Muslims surged into the Christian quarter, setting all 40 of the Christian houses and two churches aflame.

As the crowd of Muslims approached Gojra City, Christians fired shots at them in self-defense.

Six Christians—four women, a man and a 7 year-old child—were burned to death in the attacks.

The rioters were enraged by the alleged desecration of the Koran in the village of Koriyan, about two miles away.

However, Rana Sanaullah, provincial minister for law, who is also responsible for security matters of Punjab, said that an initial investigation found there was no desecration of the Koran. "It was just a rumor which was exploited by anti-state elements to create chaos," he said.

According to locals, the police observed the looting and burning, but took no action. “Though police was present at the time of attack, miscreants were not stopped by them,” local Christians complained. After some time, the police tried to stop the protesters, but the mob turned on the police, resulting in some injuries.

According to Minorities Concern of Pakistan, “this is the third incident in the last two months of this kind in Punjab province in which Christian localities were attacked due to alleged blasphemy.”

Christians make up just 1.5 percent of the total population of Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

Abortion Drug Has Killed 29 Women

Abortion Drug Has Killed 29 Women, European Maker Tells Italy's Government

by Steven Ertelt
LifeNews.com Editor
July 31, 2009

Rome, Italy (LifeNews.com) -- The world may never know how many thousands of women have been injured, or even killed, by the dangerous RU 486 abortion drug. The best worldwide guess is that 13 women have been killed as a result of the mifepristone abortion pill, but the maker of the drug in Europe is saying 29 women have died.

If the information given to the Italian Pharmaceuticals Agency (AIFA) by European abortion drug maker Exelgyn is correct, then twice as many women have died from the abortion drug globally than the pro-life community has thought.

Currently, eight women have died from using the RU 486 abortion drug in the United States, two in England, and one each in Canada, Sweden and France.

But, according to a report by the Italian news agency ASCA, Exelgyn provided the figure of 29 women dying from the abortion pill to the Italy Ministry of Health, which, in turn, gave the information to the AIFA drug regulatory agency.

Meanwhile, Eugenia Roccella, the subsecretary of the Italian health office, also reportedly confirmed the figure she received from Exelgyn to L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican newspaper.

AIFA is the agency that announced this week that the abortion drug, marketed in Italy as Mifegyne, will now be available for purchase across Italy, after years of the European nation only allowing surgical abortions.

Dr. Randy O'Bannon, the director of research for the National Right to Life Committee and one of the American authorities on the abortion drug, told LifeNews.com that he can't confirm the Exelgyn figure of 29 deaths.

"It has always been difficult to get complete information on the deaths and injuries associated with the RU-486 method," he said Friday.

Typically, a death from the mifepristone abortion pill doesn't become public information "unless someone knows that a woman has had a chemical abortion and recognizes that her complications are related to that event" or "unless someone reports that to the distributor or manufacturer."

Abortion deaths may also become known if someone submits a report to a governmental agency or "someone goes to the press or the press uncovers and publicizes those incidents," O'Bannon says.

If none of those actions occur, "then no one knows and the industry goes on promoting the myth of these drugs’ safety and more women’s lives are put at risk."

"We can only wonder how high the number would be if we had all the information," O'Bannon said.

Abortion measure passes, then fails, in House
(AP)
WASHINGTON — An anti-abortion amendment to a sweeping health overhaul bill was voted down in a House committee late Thursday — a dramatic reversal just hours after the measure initially was approved.

The amendment said health care legislation moving through Congress may not impose requirements for coverage of abortion, except in limited cases. It was approved in the Energy and Commerce Committee after conservative Democrats joined Republicans to support it.

But committee Chairman Henry Waxman, D-Calif., invoked House rules that allowed him to bring up the amendment for a second vote, despite Republican objections.

This time, one conservative Democrat — Rep. Bart Gordon of Tennessee — changed his vote from "yes" to "no." And a second conservative Democrat who hadn't voted the first time — Rep. Zack Space of Ohio — voted "no."

It was enough to take down the amendment on a 30-29 vote.

Mexican bishops call for end to violence in Michoacan

Mexico City, Mexico, Jul 20, 2009 / 02:38 pm (CNA).- The bishops of the ecclesiastical province of Morelia in Mexico have called for an end to the violence that has plagued the region. They have also implored Mexicans in the area to participate in the Triduum of Prayer for peace July 23 to 25.

“As disciples of Jesus Christ and as pastors of the People of God, we cannot remain silent or indifferent. It is time to raise our voices and ask in the name of God: Enough death! Nobody can escape divine judgment and each one will have render and account for his actions. We call on those involved in violence to heed the voice of God who calls us to life and to peace,” the bishops said in a statement.

They went on to express their sorrow over the wave of violence that has spread across the region and they noted that residents live in an atmosphere of uncertainty and anguish because they feel defenseless. “There are places becoming ghost towns because the lack of security,” the bishops warned.

For this reason the bishops have called for a Triduum of Prayer July 23—25. It will include Holy Hours, Stations of the Cross and the Rosary. They also suggested using prayers for Reconciliation during the Mass when permitted by the liturgical calendar and to pray for peace each afternoon at 3 p.m.

“We must humbly and persistently implore the God of mercy to take pity on us and grant us peace. With the strength of prayer let us struggle to overcome evil with the force of good,” the bishops said, urging that all Mexicans work to “re-establish public order in peace and justice.”

Priest beaten into a coma by police. Catholics Protest throughout Vietnam
by J.B. An Dang

Thousands of the faithful take part in demonstrations and prayer vigils in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. The priest in a coma was beaten and then hurled from the 2nd floor of a hospital. Another was savagely beaten while 30 policemen stood by watching. The Diocese of Vinh publicly denounces the episode.

Hanoi (AsiaNews)-Two priests are in serious condition after they were savagely beaten by Vietnamese police and thugs, who tried in vain to stop the demonstrations held last July 26 in Vinh (300 km south of Hanoi) to demand justice for the violence used against the Christian community of the parish of Tam Toa (see AsiaNews 21/07/09 - Beatings and arrests of priests and faithful in the historic church of Tam Toa). As news of the priests conditions spread, a series of new demonstrations have been launched in several cities of Vietnam.

The diocesan office in Vinh issued a statement last night in condemning the attacks by police and gangs of thugs acting on police orders, on the two priests, Fr Paul Nguyen Dinh Phu and Fr. Peter Nguyen The Binh, whose conditions are very critical. Both have been admitted to hospital in Dong Hoi, the first with broken ribs and head injuries, the second was beaten into a coma and then hurled from the 2nd floor of the building.

Are We Our Brother's Keeper?

2009-07-29T07:11:00.000-07:00

In the book of Genesis we have the scene of Cain killing his brother Able, out of jealousy. God then comes to Cain and asks him where his brother is (knowing well that he had killed his brother). Cain replies, with the now famous line, "I do not know, am I my brothers keeper?" Gen 4:9. In other words, how should I know, find him yourself God! Pretty belligerent words, coming from Cain toward God. God responds, "Listen: Your brother's blood cries out to Me for the soil!" Gen 4:10
But don't we all act like Cain in a sense telling God the same thing when it comes to people who are victims of crime? How many times have we seen something bad happening to someone and we say to ourselves, 'that's none of my business' or 'they made their own bed, now let them sleep in it' or the like? We as a society need to wake up and understand that WE ARE OUR BROTHERS KEEPER! We need to watch out for one another and stand up for injustices which are happening, not only in 'other' parts of the world, but in our own back yards! We need the Power of The Holy Spirit. That Power which is called DUNAMIS in the New Testament Greek, from which we get our word DYNAMITE! We need to be more involved with others. To care about them so that when we see something happening that should not be, we can recognize the red flag and act (preventatively).
So the answer to Cain's question is a resounding YES, we ARE our brother's keeper. When God sees injustice, His response is the same as that to Cain, "Listen: Your brother's blood cries out to me from the soil!" Are we LISTENING as God requests?

Read the following article...how long will it take us to wake up and be involved with each other so we can possibly prevent such things...

July 29, 2009(CNN) -- Police are searching for someone who killed a woman in her Massachusetts apartment and cut an 8-month-old fetus from her body.

Officers found Darlene Haynes dead after neighbors complained about a stench coming from her Worcester apartment.

The 23-year-old was found in the closet of a bedroom, wrapped in bedding, according to authorities. She was last seen on Thursday, police said.

Haynes had been dead for several days, police said. During an autopsy, police learned that a fetus had been removed from the woman's body.
Don't Miss

Police say the missing infant could survive, but would need immediate medical attention.

A friend of Haynes told CNN affiliate WHDH that she had received a text message from Haynes at 11:20 p.m. Thursday that said she was having wine coolers with a friend at her apartment. That was the last she heard from her.

Holy car! Utah boy goes for spin to avoid church
AP Wed Jul 29, 2:05 am ET

PLAIN CITY, Utah – Police in Utah say a 7-year-old boy led officers on a car chase in an effort to avoid going to church.

Dispatchers received reports of a child driving recklessly on Sunday morning. Weber County Sheriff's Capt. Klint Anderson says one witness said the boy drove through a stop sign.

Anderson says two deputies caught up with the boy and tried unsuccessfully to stop the Dodge Intrepid in an area about 45 miles north of Salt Lake City. The car reached 40 mph before the boy stopped in a driveway and ran inside a home.

Anderson says when the boy's father later confronted him, the boy said he didn't want to go to church. The boy is too young to prosecute and no citations were issued, although police did urge the father to make his car keys more inaccessible to children.
