God Is the Only Lasting Source

  Psalms 37:4    Delight thyself also in the Lord ; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. As human beings we are created by God to be happy and to feel good about ourselves. As a matter of fact, we must feel good about ourselves, or eventually we will develop some sort of unhealthy, uncontrolled behavior to get the good feelings we crave. Think about it. A person who is addicted to drugs probably began using them because his pain was so intense he felt compelled to get rid of it, even if only temporarily. The same thing is true of drinking, or using food as a comfort. If we do not get good feelings from the inside, then we attempt to create them through outside means. God created us that way and He's the only one who can satisfy us. When we go to something other than God to make us feel good about ourselves, we're really just replacing something real with a cheap substitute. Whatever your emotional needs are today, kno...

Sinister Sites: IRS Headquarters, Maryland

Image
Nov 28th, 2012 | Category: Featured , Sinister Sites  The IRS headquarters in New Carrollton, Maryland is a government building  that, despite being constructed with public funds, contains art referring to elite secret societies. More importantly, the art conveys a strange message about the U.S. Constitution, and the American people in general. We’ll look at the symbolic meaning of the art found in front of the IRS headquarters in Maryland. The IRS is probably the most hated institution in America – mainly because its primary role is to force people to hand over their hard-earned cash. This modern equivalent of the proverbial tax collector indeed collects money from American workers and gives it to a government that will, in turn, use this money to send drones abroad or to build information superstructures to better monitor these same workers. What’s not to like? The IRS was originally created as a “temporary measure” during w...

(AP) — Mayor Cory Booker said he will live on food stamps for a week starting Tuesday. Booker told The Associated Press on Thursday that he will honor the challenge he made to a Twitter follower earlier this month and try living on the monetary equivalent of food stamps for at least a week. "December 4 to 11. Seven days," Booker said after the ribbon cutting for new loft apartments in Newark. He said he will be limited to $1.40 for each meal. The North Carolina woman Booker challenged plans to accept, but she is not sure she will do it next week. The woman, who uses the Twitter handle (at)MWadeNC and goes by the name TwitW...

Man to Remove Romney Face Tattoo

Image
By Sarah Parnass | ABC OTUS News  –  21 hrs ago Enlarge Photo ABC OTUS News - Man to Remove Romney Face Tattoo (ABC News) Two weeks after telling ABC News he did not " regret the tattoo at all " the man who got the Romney 'R' logo tattooed on his face for an eBay bid of $15,000 has changed his mind. "I had a little change of heart," Eric Hartsburg confessed, saying he will now have the tattoo removed. Hartsburg said he could live with touting the logo of a losing candidate, but what pushed him over the edge were Romney 's comments that President Obama won the election by giving "gifts" to certain constituencies. "I could deal with being a part of a losing campaign, but to still stand behind Gov. Romney with the positions he's taken post-election with the blame game instead," Hartsburg said. "To be such a sore loser about it, to me I ca...

A Guide To Getting The Best Free-On-Contract Android Phone

Image
November 28, 2012 Dima Aryeh There are many people out there who are on a budget and won’t pay big money for a high end phone. Yes, we urge them to. Right at the beginning of this article, I will state that there is little reason to buy a budget device. I would suggest always going high end. That $200 between a free phone and a high end phone will go a long way in helping your phone stay modern for a long time, and that charge will pale in comparison to what you pay for service. There, I said it, always go high end. And I can confidently say budget devices have hurt Android more than almost anything. Most manufacturers put almost no thought or care into their budget phones. They release devices that barely work, that aren’t compatible with a lot of apps, and when people buy them, they blame Android. They go ...

Teen jumps to death off Brooklyn Bridge

By JESSICA SIMEONE Last Updated: 8:35 AM, November 27, 2012 Posted: 8:35 AM, November 27, 2012 A teen jumped to his death this morning from the Brooklyn Bridge. A teenager leapt to his death this morning from the Brooklyn Bridge during morning rush hour traffic, authorities said. The 19-year-old was threatening to jump from the Brooklyn-bound roadway around 7:20 a.m. when emergency workers responded to the call, said a spokesman for the FDNY. All bridge traffic was shut down in both directions to pedestrians and cars, cops said. The man jumped about 30 minutes later from the Brooklyn side of the bridge and landed in the rear of the River Cafe, police sources said. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

Google Is Supposedly Releasing Its Own Self-Branded Chromebook

Image
November 26, 2012 Brian Sin According to a Taiwanese newspaper entitled the  Commercial Times , Google is getting ready to launch a Chromebook of its own. The rumored Chromebook will be 12.85-inches, touch-capable, and will be released in Q1 of 2013. Google has enlisted two Taiwanese manufacturers to handle the production its Chromebooks. The first manufacturer, Compal Electronics, will be responsible for the OEM production, and the second manufacturer, Wintek, will be responsible for supplying the touch panels. Google may be planning on aggressively marketing their Chromebooks in 2013, and with it managing all of its productions, it will eliminate the middle man and receive all of the profits from its sales. We know how suc...

Facebook Is Encouraging Their Employees Through Posters To Switch To Android

Image
Facebook has been placing posters all around their offices to encourage their employees to give up their iPhones and pick up an Android phone. By having employees use Android handsets, they are getting their employees to dogfood (or droidfood) their Facebook for Android app. They know that there are bugs within their Facebook for Android app and they want their employees to figure those bugs out using a bug reporting tool which they call the “Rage Shake”. Facebook knows that the expected shipments of Android handsets will greatly surpass that of the iPhone by 2016, so they want their employees working extra hard on their app for Android so they don’t neglect most of the smartphone market. Hopefully now, the Facebook app for Android will get much needed attention and updates. Right now it’s a bit choppy and buggy compared to its iPhone counterpart. I always envy my friends when I see how fluid and consist...

Hundreds of mariachis took part in the annual pilgrimage to celebrate  … more   MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico 's president is making one last attempt to get the "United States" out of Mexico — at least as far as the country's name is concerned. The name "United Mexican States," or "Estados Unidos Mexicanos," was adopted in 1824 after independence from Spain in imitation of Mexico's democratic northern neighbor, but it is rarely used except on official documents, money and other government material. Still, President Felipe Calderon called a news conference Thursday to announce that he wants to make the name simply "Mexico." His country doesn't need to copy anyone, he said. Calderon first proposed the name change as a cong...

Taylor Swift’s Performance at the 2012 AMA’s: A Typical Initiation Ritual

Image
By VC | November 19th, 2012 | We’ve seen in previous articles that music award shows are often rife with ritualistic elements that reflect the occult inner-workings of the entertainment industry. The elaborate musical performances of these shows are conceived to promote artists’ latest singles but also contain symbolism reflecting elite’s  Agenda and philosophy. In the article on the 2009 VMA Awards , we’ve seen that Taylor Swift undergone a symbolic initiation ritual. In her performance at the 2012 American Music Awards, she appears to undergo another initiation, by partaking in the often seen “good girl gone bad” narrative, complete with a transformation symbolized by color codes. Let’s look at the performance. Swift begins her performance in a virginal white dress. Notice the Masonic checkerboard pattern floors on each side of her. Her performance takes place in what I like to call an “Illuminati Ball”: Parties wh...

Human Barbie Valeria Lukyanova

Image
Human Barbie Valeria Lukyanova is probably mostly fake, which surprises probably mostly no one (Courtesy of V Magazine) She's been called the "Human Barbie" by websites and magazines the world over, and Valeria Lukyanova , the Russian model who appears to be shaped by Mattel, has done her darnedest to live up to the name--possibly manipulating the public in the process.  Meet the Human Barbie Lukyanova, a YouTube sensation whose videos have been viewed more than 4 million times, claims that her doll-like "perfect" face and figure are the result of regular ol' genetics and some makeup, that she's been "endowed by nature with extraordinary external data." But--according to plastic surgery experts and websites debunking Lukyanova's look as nowhere close to real--nature isn't that mysterious. "This girl is a fraud," writes an anonymous user on the website , TheDirty.com. "She had been badly Photoshopping...

Jesus Is Our Example

Love is something that can be seen. It is seen in the fruit of the Spirit working in our lives, in our behavior and how we treat people. Love has many facets, or different ways we can see it. For example, when a diamond ring is held up to the light, it can sparkle in various ways depending on which way it is turned in the light. I believe love also sparkles in different ways depending on how we look at it. I Corinthians 13:4-7 gives us examples of the many facets of love: Love endures long, it has the ability to put up with stuff for a long time. Love is never envious, it doesn't want what it doesn't have. Love is not boastful or vainglorious, it doesn't call attention to itself. Love is not conceited or rude. Love doesn't insist on its own way. Love pays no attention to a suffered wrong. Love never gives up! These are just a few ways we're supposed to love others...and it's also the way God loves us. First John 4:8 says that "God is l...

Removing Distractions

One of Satan's more cunning weapons is distraction. He knows if we become sidetracked by the cares of the world that, more than likely, we will begin to neglect our time with God. To keep us faithful and in close fellowship and communion with Him, sometimes God wants us to remove distractions that are separating us from Him, even if it hurts. For example, if our career or desire for money or social status are more important to us than pleasing God, we need to get our priorities straight. Or maybe a relationship is keeping you from spending time with God and you're looking for that person's attention and approval more than God's. The bottom line is, any situation or desire in our life that keeps us from being led by the Holy Spirit or living for God is an unhealthy distraction that's not good for us. God wants us to be moved by His Spirit, not by distractions. So today, set aside all of the distractions of life and purposely focus on God. When yo...

Popular Twitter Client Tweet Lanes To Stop Development Due To Twitter Restrictions

Image
November 17, 2012 David Beren Unfortunately, we can chalk yet another victim to Twitter’s 100,000-user to limit at Tweet Lanes developer Chris Lacy writes that he will stop active development of the app. As many reading this will be aware, Twitter have begun enforcing limits on 3rd party clients like Tweet Lanes, capping them at 100,000 user tokens. I have reached out to Twitter to see whether there might be some way I could be issued with more tokens, but I have been informed that Tweet Lanes will not be granted an exemption past this 100,000 limit. So it saddens me greatly to announce that going forward, I won’t be actively developing Tweet Lanes as I have to this point. The cold hard reality is that with this immovable, 100,000 user ceiling, my plans for growing and eve...

Relying on God

I believe every time we feel frustration, it means we've really stopped relying on God. That might sound like a bold statement to you, but think about it: God's given you and me His Holy Spirit and His grace to help us walk through anything that comes our way. Frustration hits when we stop depending on Him and try to make something happen our own way. Understanding this really helped me. Every time I became frustrated, I reminded myself that what I was really doing was trying to take the place of the Holy Spirit. I was trying to be Holy Spirit Junior! Do you struggle with an independent spirit? When you refuse to depend on God, in essence, you're saying, "Okay, God, I appreciate that You're around, but watch me do this." Depending on God for everything may be difficult, but it's the key to the victory we need every single day of our lives. When God saved us, He didn't help us and then say, "Ok, that's it. You're on your own now!...

The Illuminati Symbolism of Ke$ha’s “Die Young” and How it Ridicules the Indoctrinated Masses

Image
By VC | November 15th, 2012 |    Ke$ha’s “Die Young” is probably one of the most blatant Illuminati videos ever released. While the symbolism is so overt that it is almost ridiculous, there’s an underlying message to the video: Even if you’re dumb enough to embrace all of that Illuminati brainwash, you’re still not part of the elite and therefore, still subject to “Die Young”. Ke-dollarsign-ha has never been the most inspirational singer around. She started her career as an alcoholic party girl that’s not too strict about personal hygiene (see the Tik Tok line “Before I leave brush ma teeth with a bottle of Jack”) and, for her new album, she turned into some kind of Illuminati witch-type deal. She is far from the only pop star that has gone through this kind of metamorphosis and it was probably pre-planned by her record label. How many singers have gone from an “around-the-way” girl to an Illuminati figure...
