Hole

An urgent expedition will leaves tomorrow to probe a giant crater that has appeared in gas-rich northern Siberia.

Extraordinary aerial images show a mysterious hole which experts say may be up to 262 feet wide, in the Yamal Peninsula of northern Russia.

'A scientific team has been sent to investigate the hole and is due to arrive at the scene on Wednesday,' The Siberian Times has reported.

Has anybody besides me been noticing all the weird stuff that is going on in the world? And time- It seems like time has sped up so fast. I have a feeling inside of gloom that I can't explain, like something is about to give. I have had the strangest dreams, that are scary and seem prophetic.

When I saw this picture it reminded me of all the things I have been feeling, anybody else feel this urgency or is it just me?

Then and Now, they call it progress

A couple of generations ago, whatever one’s economic class,
“class” mattered. And with class came dignity.

The ultimate goal of the NSA is total population control

The Guardian

 At least 80% of all audio calls, not just metadata, are recorded and stored in the US, says whistleblower William Binney – that's a 'totalitarian mentality'
 
William Binney is one of the highest-level whistleblowers to ever emerge from the NSA. He was a leading code-breaker against the Soviet Union during the Cold War but resigned soon after September 11, disgusted by Washington’s move towards mass surveillance.

On 5 July he spoke at a conference in London organised by the Centre for Investigative Journalism and revealed the extent of the surveillance programs unleashed by the Bush and Obama administrations.

“At least 80% of fibre-optic cables globally go via the US”, Binney said. “This is no accident and allows the US to view all communication coming in. At least 80% of all audio calls, not just metadata, are recorded and stored in the US. The NSA lies about what it stores.”

The NSA will soon be able to collect 966 exabytes a year, the total of internet traffic annually. Former Google head Eric Schmidt once argued that the entire amount of knowledge from the beginning of humankind until 2003 amount to only five exabytes.

Mankind considers itself intelligent because he can communicate and build little toys like these. But he out clevers himself. 966 exabytes is nothing compared to the concept of the creator and the universe. You see he is being watched even more closely than he could ever imagine watching. Not just his phone calls, text, email and travels but every idle thought, every word spoken, every hair of of his head is numbered. And he being the fool of his own pride and power doesn't even stop to think about the consequences of God while he piddles with his little contraptions trying to play as a god.

He is foolish and vain in his heart and the meaning of what he collects will eventually be for naught in the grave, while overlooking the eternal consequences of what he does to others by fooling, blackmailing, hurting and otherwise being a creepy pervert.

All he does will count for nothing and the master he serves can't even save himself. I wish sometimes these people who comply with this nonsense would just take a moment and step back - look and realize it is all foolishness and do something positive for mankind that will have everlasting positive personal consequences.

But most of them won't and I pray for their eternal souls while they go about recruiting and destroying others. If you are one of those people and reading this I suggest you get on your knees, ask for forgiveness and leave your ways.

Illegals coming to Dallas

A Dallas judge unveiled three possible sites, two in Dallas and one in Grand Prairie, that could temporarily house about 2,000 children who entered the U.S. illegally without their parents, amid a dramatic spike in border crossings by undocumented children that has overwhelmed officials.

Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins detailed preliminary plans for housing the children at a briefing Thursday, citing three possible housing sites: Hulcy Middle School in Dallas, Parkland Hospital building 2420 in the 2400 block of Butler Street in Dallas and the Lamar School in Grand Prairie.
 
"Here in North Texas, we don’t turn our back on children," Jenkins said. "This is about compassionate care of children."

"I don’t think North Texas will turn its back on children. Anytime you have 7 million people, there are going to be some people that are upset," he said. "But this is about compassionate care of children, and I think as a community we're going to be able to stand together and be proud that we have done what's right for these children."

What Dumbasses

Hey Sparky, whatcha gonna do when they ain't children no more? Dumbass!

Do you belive in Ghosts?

Here is the link and story for the picture below. Click on the picture at the link for a better close up.

First thing that caught my attention is that the picture is B&W and not color.
What does the shapes and shadows look like in the original color Picture?

To answer my own question I don't believe in ghosts of the dead returning to Earth. I do however believe in spirits that can appear which ever way they wish. Most ghost pictures are tricks of light and shadow along with the way the mind recognizes the familiar. It is easy to see things in clouds because of the way the mind works. Spirits may haunt a person (obsession) or place but it is not the dead returning in my opinion.

Politics Defined

"Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy."
 

-British writer and publisher Sir Ernest Benn, 1875-1954
