January 27, 2014 - This is a sturdy, nice small sized water bottle. Good value for the money.
January 18, 2014 - This bottle was great, but whenever I had the top on (the one you don't have to unscrew and is on the bottle in the picture), it was in danger of leaking. This is NOT a 'shove in my bag' water bottle. Make sure that if you have that lid on that the water bottle is upright!
January 3, 2014 - This Paws Galore Stainless Steel Water Bottle fits in my Paws Galore handbags, and it provides for clean tasting water unlike the water in plastic water bottles which taste like plastic. Good purchase.
December 21, 2013 - I have 6 of these all in my refrig. NO more plastic water bottles. Water tastes so much better too.

MBDA National Director will speak at the 2006 USHCC Convention in Philadelphia, PA on September 21
PHILADELPHIA, PA—The Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) today announced it will form a new partnership with the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Foundation (USHCC) to join efforts in analyzing and developing economic data and identifying more procurement opportunities for the nation's 1.6 million Hispanic businesses.
"Hispanic Americans are playing an ever-expanding role in setting the direction of our country with Hispanic businesses as one of the fastest growing segments of the U.S. economy," said National Director of the Minority Business Development Agency Ronald Langston. "Our innovative and entrepreneurial spirit is thriving in America, and I look forward to working with the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Foundation.
Annual National MED Week Conference Recognize Anniversary of Katrina
WASHINGTON, DC –On the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, August 29, 2006, the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) will kick off the National Minority Enterprise Development (MED) Week conference in Washington, DC at the Omni Shoreham Hotel.
"August 29th marks the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, which changed the lives of many Americans," said MBDA National Director Ronald N. Langston. "As we launch into MED Week, MBDA is rededicating the Agency's commitment to rebuilding minority businesses affected by Hurricane Katrina." The MED Week 2006 Conference will feature two workshops that will educate minority entrepreneurs on how they can take part in the rebuilding efforts in the Gulf Coast, gain access to contracting opportunities and learn about tax incentives in the Gulf.
"Recognizing the challenges that Gulf Coast minority business owners would face in trying to reestablish their businesses such as filing for disaster loans, finding alternative credit sources, rebuilding business records, infrastructure and inventory, MBDA launched into action a year ago" said Mr. Langston. "Under our Rebuilding the Gulf Initiative, we have opened satellite offices in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, Louisiana to assist minority businesses with management and technical assistance. We expect to extend our reach into Biloxi, Mississippi and Mobile, Alabama, too."

An old axiom in politics states "money follows power."Read the full article
And in the 2012 election, money followed Republicans — big time.
Taking a page from the old Democratic playbook, Republican leaders say, they simply turned the tables, outraising and outspending Democrats in key districts. And they won big.
"They had all the money this time, and we had none," said state Sen. Martin Nesbitt, D-Buncombe, who is also the minority leader in the Senate. "Our party is really going to have to come to grips with that. You can't win races with a fifth or a third of the money."
Statewide, Republicans nearly doubled Democratic fundraising, funneling the money to targeted races such as the Jim Davis-John Snow contest in the 50th Senate District, which encompasses far western mountain counties. Fourth-quarter campaign spending reports, which politicians had to file last week, show local Republicans heavily outspent Democrats in numerous races.

Medicare Part B Drugs:
Program Payments Should Reflect Market Prices
GAO-01-1142T: Published: Sep 21, 2001. Publicly Released: Sep 21, 2001.
(202) 512-8942
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The pricing of Medicare's part B-covered prescription drugs--largely drugs that cannot be administered by patients themselves--has been under scrutiny for years. Most of the part B drugs with the highest Medicare payments and billing volume fall into three categories: those that are billed for by physicians and typically provided in a physician office setting, those that are billed for by pharmacy suppliers and administered through a durable medical equipment (DME) item, and those that are also billed by pharmacy suppliers but are patient-administered and covered explicitly by statute. Studies show that Medicare sometimes pays physicians and other providers significantly more than their actual costs for the drugs. In September 2000, the Health Care Financing Administration's (HCFA)--now the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services--took steps to reduce Medicare's payment for part B-covered drugs by authorizing Medicare carriers, the contractors that pay part B claims, to use prices obtained in the Justice Department investigations of providers' drug acquisition costs. HFCA retracted this authority in November 2000 after providers raised concerns. GAO found that Medicare's method for establishing drug payments is flawed. Medicare pays 95 percent of the average wholesale price (AWP), which, despite its name, may be neither an average nor what wholesalers charge. It is a price that manufacturers derive using their own criteria; there are no requirements or conventions that AWP reflect the price of any actual sale of drugs by a manufacturer. Manufacturers report AWPs to organizations that publish them in drug price compendia, and Medicare carriers that pay claims for part B drugs base providers' payments on the published AWPs. In 2001, widely available prices at which providers could purchase drugs were substantially below AWP, on which Medicare payments are based. For both physician-billed drugs and pharmacy supplier-billed drugs, Medicare payments often far exceeded widely available prices. Physicians and pharmacy suppliers contend that the excess payments for covered drugs are necessary to offset what they claim are inappropriately low or nonexistent Medicare payments for services related to these drugs. For delivery pharmacy supplier-billed drugs, Medicare's payment policies are uneven. Pharmacy suppliers billing Medicare receive a dispensing fee for one drug type--inhalation therapy drugs--but there are no similar payments for other DME-administered or oral drugs. Other payers and purchasers, such as health plans and the Department of Veterans Affairs, use different approaches to pay for or purchase drugs that may be instructive for Medicare. In general, they make use of the leverage from their volume and competition to secure better prices.

MLB Preview and Predictions 2K10: National League
By Alex Shultz ,
Baseball season begins April 4, so it's time to predict the outcomes for every team in the NL. Look for your favorite squads and compare your picks to mine.
I've ranked the teams based on their predicted finish for the 2010 season. I've also ranked each squad's batting and pitching on a letter scale, with a short explanation following.
Predicted Standings
1. Philadelphia Phillies
2. Atlanta Braves
3. New York Mets
4. Florida Marlins
5. Washington Nationals
Batting: A
With Ryan Howard and Chase Utley anchoring the Phillies lineup, Philadelphia should once again be considered the favorites coming out of the NL East.
The Philly outfield (Raul Ibanez, Shane Victorino, Jayson Werth) is one of the best in baseball, and Placido Polanco is an upgrade over Pedro Feliz at third base. If Jimmy Rollins bounces back from a so-so season, this could be the year the Phillies win it all.
Pitching: B
On paper, the Phillies' pitching staff looks to be amongst the best in the bigs.
Roy Halladay should continue to be a Cy Young candidate, and J.A. Happ exploded onto the scene last year as a great young arm. The rest of the rotation poses major questions, however.
Cole Hamels might be the 15-5 ace from 2008, or the 10-11 average pitcher that self-imploded in the 2009 postseason.
The bullpen looks even shakier, with Brad Lidge coming off two offseason surgeries and his worst season as a closer. If Ryan Madson can provide some support and Hamels returns to form, everything should go according to plan in Philadelphia. That's a big if though.
Batting: B-
Nate McLouth and Brian McCann headline a powerful group of hitters who will likely send a high volume of homers out of Turner Field. Speed is virtually non-existent in the Braves lineup, though, and that's a big issue entering the season.
Rookie Jason Heyward will need to show all the hype is well deserved in the outfield. Chipper Jones's health will also be key if the Braves want to make a run at the Wild Card or even division crown.
Pitching: A-
The Braves quietly aligned one of the best rotations in the NL. Derek Lowe and Tim Hudson are proven veterans certain to hit double-digit wins by season's end. Jair Jurrjens finished 2009 with a 2.60 ERA, and youngster Tommy Hanson could be the most consistent player on the pitching staff by season's end. Billy Wagner and Takashi Saito will split reliever duties, and should do so effectively.
Batting: B+
For the past few seasons, the Mets were the sexy pick to win the NL East and even the World Series. Each of those seasons, New York collapsed and failed to make the postseason. This year, the bar needs to be set much lower.
The Mets have a talented group of hitters, but injuries may cut into that talent pool considerably. Jose Reyes continues to struggle with leg issues, Carlos Delgado is gone, and Carlos Beltran will be out until at the earliest May.
Still, David Wright is one of the most dynamic players in baseball, and the addition of Jason Bay should eliminate some of the pressure he felt last season.
Pitching: B-
Johan Santana and Francisco Rodriguez single-handedly save the Mets pitching staff from utter disaster. After those two studs, it's complete chaos in the rotation and bullpen, which is known for blowing game after game the last two seasons.
Mike Pelfry, Oliver Perez, and John Maine all struggled with control problems last season and ended up with very high ERAs. The Mets desperately need that trio to return to their younger, more dominate form.
Batting: B
The Marlins will be one of the fastest teams in MLB, and with Hanley Ramirez on the roster, anything is possible from a run-production standpoint. The other youngsters remain the key issue here. If they can hit the ball consistently, the Marlins are the dark horse team in the NL East. An increased batting average for Dan Uggla would help big time.
Pitching: B-
Josh Johnson and Ricky Nolasco are two pitchers with plenty of talent and great stats from years past. The rest of the rotation is shaky and extremely young, which usually is a foreboding sign of trouble.
Look for Leo Nunez to have a surprisingly good season as the closer in Florida.
Batting: B-
Ryan Zimmerman and Adam Dunn are perfect players in the three and four spot of any lineup. In fact, both players could end up as all-stars this season.
Everyone else in the lineup is a bit too old (Pudge Rodriguez) or a bit too inexperienced (Ian Desmond). The potential is there for one of those inexperienced players to break out, but it won't take the Nationals out of the basement of the NL East.
Pitching: D+
Until phenom Stephen Strasburg is called up, there won't be much to cheer about pitching-wise for the Nationals. When John Lannan is your ace, it's going to be a long season.
Sorry, Nats fans.
Predicted Standings
1. St. Louis Cardinals
2. Chicago Cubs
3. Cincinnati Reds
4. Milwaukee Brewers
5. Houston Astros
6. Pittsburgh Pirates
Batting: A
The Cardinals have a great chance of emerging out of the NL and competing for a World Series. As long as Albert Pujols is in the lineup, St. Louis is a threat to score runs.
Matt Holliday and Ryan Ludwick are top-tier compliments to the best player in baseball, and will pose a major problem for opposing squads.
Colby Rasmus's development will be a key storyline to watch. The Cards need him to raise his stats from last season, and they also need third baseman David Freese to replace Mark DeRosa.
Pitching: A-
Having one Cy Young candidate usually bodes well for a team, and the Cardinals possess two (Chris Carpenter, Adam Wainwright).
Assuming Brad Penny and Kyle Lohse play around the status quo for a third and fourth pitcher in the rotation, the Cardinals should be fine.
Ryan Franklin was spectacular last season, and has a chance to expand on his performance this year.
Batting: A-
The Cubbies won't end their World Series drought this year, but have a good enough lineup to compete for a Wild Card spot.
Derrek Lee and Aramis Ramirez will anchor the three and four spots in the batting lineup, with Alfonso Soriano still acting as a dangerous producer.
Marlon Byrd is going to be the x-factor for Chicago. He has to play better than Milton Bradley and be much less of a headache.
Look for Geovany Soto to rebound from a disappointing season and play like he did in 2008, which will be a big lift for Chi Town.
Pitching: B+
With the exception of Randy Wells, the Cubs have a very predictable pitching staff, and that's not such a bad thing.
From spots one to three, the Cubs have double-digit win pitchers lined up and ready to go. Wells should expand on his great rookie season, and Tom Gorzelanny is a solid fifth option.
Carlos Marmol played well as the closer last year, and will have the job full-time this year. Jeff Samardzija in the bullpen will provide an extra boost.
Batting: B-
Hitting in the three spot, Joey Votto is primed and ready for a breakout season. Expect over 30 homers and close to 100 RBIs, along with an All-Star game appearance for the young first baseman.
The Reds were hoping Jay Bruce would be ready for the cleanup role, but he struggled with his batting average and suffered a tough injury. He needs to prove himself this season if he wants to unseat Brandon Phillips for the fourth spot in the lineup.
Pitching: B+
The Reds will have one of the better rotations around, with veterans Aaron Harang and Bronson Arroyo at the top.
Homer Bailey and Johnny Cueto should become fantasy-team mainstays by season's end, and Edison Volquez (who is returning from injury) along with rookie sensation Aroldis Chapman could make a big impact too.
Closer Francisco Cordero is in store for another solid season, with a good bullpen behind him.
Batting: B
There's nothing flashy about the Brewers hitting, but it gets the job done. Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun are two of baseball's best, and Corey Hart is an above-average outfielder.
If Milwaukee can get some more of out Carlos Gomez or Alcides Escobar, they have a chance to beat out the Reds in the division.
Pitching: B
Just like the Brewers' batting, the pitching staff is solid but unspectacular. Yovani Gallardo is the gem of the pack, but after that, it's all average starters who will hover around ten wins apiece.
Milwaukee fans will have to cross their fingers that 42-year-old Trevor Hoffman doesn't breakdown. To his credit, he was an all-star in 2009.
Batting: B-
The Astros outfield, consisting of Carlos Lee, Hunter Pence, and Michael Bourn is a great combination of speed and power. Unfortunately, things go downhill from there.
The infield is chalk full of question marks. Lance Berkman has slowly taken steps backward over the last three seasons, a trend likely to continue this year. No one knows who will win the catcher job, and Tommy Manzella has no experience as the full-time shortstop.
Pitching B-
Roy Oswalt, Wandy Rodriguez, and Brett Myers make up an intimidating top of the order for the Astros rotation. The four and five spots are unknowns at this point, as Bud Norris is extremely young and Brian Moehler struggled in 2009 (8-12, 5.47 ERA).
Batting: C
Andrew McCutchen and Garrett Jones should expand on their breakout seasons from 2009, but there's nothing else to be excited about here.
Ryan Dourmit is an above-average batter for a catcher, assuming he stays healthy. Considering how the Pirates blew up the entire team last year, it wouldn't be a shocker to see "veteran" Akinori Iwamura dealt at the trade deadline for more AA and AAA players.
Pitching: D
Charlie Morton is the only real bright spot in the rotation, and he will suffer behind a team unlikely to generate much run support.
Zach Duke and Paul Maholm are good for 10 wins each and an over-four ERA.
Closer Octavio Dotel is a solid option in the bullpen, but he has no one else to help him out as a middle reliever or setup man.
Predicted Standings
1. Los Angeles Dodgers
2. San Francisco Giants
3. Arizona Diamondbacks
4. Colorado Rockies
5. San Diego Padres
Batting: B+
The NL West has four legitimate contenders for the division title, so it's going to be of vital importance that Manny Ramirez remain on the field this year. His bat coupled with Matt Kemp's is enough to scare pitching staffs across MLB.
Bonus contributions from Andre Either and Russell Martin would go a long way in re-securing the NL West.
Pitching: A
Clayton Kershaw is ready for his true breakout season, and might even be the ace of the rotation. Chad Billingsley is a great number two, and Vicente Padilla somehow revived his career for Joe Torre at season's end.
Jonathan Broxton is one of the best closers around, and guys like George Sherrill are capable of effectively filling in for him or acting as setup men. The Dodgers have a bullpen to be envied.
Batting: B
San Fran went all out this offseason to improve their awful batting from 2009, and did a good job of replenishing. Freddy Sanchez, Mark DeRosa, and Aubrey Huff will help in vastly improving the Giants hitting.
Pablo Sandoval was simply spectacular last year, and his new batting buddies should help add some RBIS to his stat line.
And, of course, keep an eye on Buster Posey. He's this year's Matt Wieters, waiting in the wings at the catcher position.
Pitching: A
Tim Lincecum is tough enough to face, and the Giants have the luxury of throwing Matt Cain on the mound the next day. Both players will contend for the Cy Young.
The rest of the rotation took a hit with the loss of Randy Johnson and Brady Penny, but Barry Zito and Jonathan Sanchez are quality pitchers not to be taken lightly.
Closer Brian Wilson surprised many with his great performance in 2009 (38 saves, 2.74 ERA). He needs to reproduce that success again.
Batting: B
Justin Upton and Mark Reynolds are superb batters, and Adam LaRoche was a nice addition as the cleanup hitter. If Stephen Drew and Conor Jackson can produce at a high level, life will be much easier in Arizona.
Catcher Miguel Montero has tons of upside and could produce big fantasy numbers.
Pitching: B+
The D-Backs will live or die on Brandon Webb's return. If he's anywhere near his former Cy Young form, Arizona instantly becomes a playoff contender.
Dan Haren is a top-five pitcher who will continue to strike out opposing batters this season.
The additions of Edwin Jackson and Ian Kennedy were huge, and should help keep Arizona in the race for the NL West title.
The bullpen poses a few problems. Chad Qualls is coming off a serious injury, and is expected to be the everyday closer. The other relievers will need to step up if Qualls isn't at 100 percent.
Batting: B+
The Rockies have a great balance of power, speed, and ability to get on base. Troy Tulowitzki finally lived up to the hype last year and can build on his impressive season. Todd Helton and Brad Hawpe still provide home runs, and Carlos Gonzalez along with Dexter Fowler will steal around 30 bases each.
Pitching: B
Ubaldo Jimenez is a proven commodity, and Aaron Cook is a good ground ball pitcher. Jorge De La Rosa went 16-9 last year, but is unlikely to reproduce that win-loss ratio. The other spots aren't too strong, especially with Jeff Francis returning from surgery.
Colorado can't play for too long without closer Huston Street, who is set to start the season on the DL. Franklin Morales and Rafael Betancourt will have big impacts on the bullpen.
Batting: C
Adrian Gonzalez will continue to produce 40 homer/100 RBI seasons as long as he wears a Padres uniform (which may not be too much longer).
Tony Gwynn is a great contact hitter at the top of the lineup, and Kyle Banks is slowly molding into a slugger to be reckoned with. For the time being though, San Diego has one of the weakest lineups in baseball.
Pitching: B-
Jon Garland and Chris Young are proven winners at the top of the rotation. Kevin Correia is coming off a pretty good season himself, giving San Diego quality pitching in the middle of the rotation as well.
It's doubtful that Heath Bell plays as well in the closer role as he did last year, but he remains a viable reliever. The rest of the bullpen played well in 2009, especially Joe Thatcher and Mike Adams.

Over time, I have gotten several questions that were asked so often that I felt the need to write this up. As much as I love answering questions, please refer to this FAQ before you ask me something! If you ask a question that is on this FAQ, I will literally just tell you to read this. So read up before you start typing. Thank you! What art program/tablet do you use? What fonts? Brushes?!?! I use Photoshop CS5 for a majority of my artwork/gifs. I sometimes use Pencil, MSPaint, and online art programs. As for tablet, I use Wacom Intuos3 For fonts I generally use some variety of "Century Gothic". But in my comics I use "Anime Ace" for speech bubbles and "Gills Sans MT" for titles. This is my brush setting for lineart: [LINK] What size are your nuzlocke comics? I don't have a set length but I do set the comic width to be 700 px wide. Length can vary from 7000-10000px. And some comics I go by paper dimensions. Sadly the dpi for the comic files are not print-size... How long does it take to draw your comics/art/etc? Doodles usually take a few minutes. Nuzlocke comics take 5-7 days (provided I take about 5 hours a day to work on the strip). Artwork can vary from 1-6 hours or more. During med school though, I barely have time to get in even an hour of drawing so...it might take weeks to produce a comic strip. Can you draw something for me? Art trade? Unless I feel like it and you are a close friend, I will NOT take any requests. This also applies to trades. I rarely take many of these because I simply do not feel like drawing them (there are also trades that are never fulfilled, etc). But I DO take commission fairly reliably. To see the status of whether I will take trades/requests/commissions: LINK Please give me some art/comic tips? I am not sure if I am well-versed to do this but...for the most part my tumblr's tutorial tag might help you a bit. If you already had read that...here's are some other tips.
Can I critique your work? You are always free to provide me any feedback on any of my drawings (be as harsh as you like). Just comment or send a note and I definitely will consider them. THIS DOES NOT MEAN I WILL WRITE A REPLY TO EVERY CRIT I GET. But be assured that I have read them at some point and will try to use it in future works. Unless I really feel like a work is really really flawed and unviewable, I will not redraw it. (I occasionally delete works off my gallery however). I always strive to improve, even if the progress does not show immediately. I want to be your friend! Talk to me regularly, be friendly and patient. I am more than open to conversation and willing to be friends with almost anyone. What is Nuzlocke? Look here [LINK] Do you play nuzlocke via cartridge or emulator? If emulator, what kind and where can I get the roms? I play all my nuzlockes on an emulator, generally I go for Desmume. (I used No$GBA for Diamond and the rest on Desmume) As for finding the ROMs, I usually get them through friends. For instance, my White game was given to me via an expired megaupload link. But TBH just look through the torrent sites for the ROMs. Give me some Nuzlocke game/comic tips! For game tips, check this thread: [LINK] For drawing tips, just refer to the previous art tip question before. Can you add more [IDK SHIPPING/CHARACTERS/OTHER THINGS] in the comic?? No, I already have the script planned out and I do not plan to change it. Can I draw/write about your ocs/nuzlocke characters? Or cameo them in my comic? Please do it! And link it to me so I can see it...I really appreciate when people draw my characters. Do you script the Nuzlocke while you play or after you finish? I do all the plot stuff AFTER I finish playing. Which Nuzlocke runs do you read/follow? I have not read a lot of runs recently so I cannot really recommend any off my head...just search the nuzlocke forums and I guarantee you will find something you'd like. Do you plan to do a _____ Nuzlocke? No idea. I'll announce a new run or whatever when I feel like it. I have PLAYED more nuzlockes than draw them out but I am not sure if I want to draw all of the nuzlockes I have played. Can I be cameo'd??? I do not do cameo requests (unless I state it in my journal). Please stop asking. WHY U NOT UPDATE FAST ENOUGH??? .......read this and leave. Oh your a med student? What do you want to be? I personally get really annoyed by this question because I DON'T KNOW. I will probably let you guys know if I ever decide on a practice. |
If you want to support me for more features on DA (i.e. polls) for my nuzlocke or fakemon, feel free to donate! Any amount is appreciated. :> Please pay your point commissions here as well. Commission info: ky-nim.deviantart.com/journal/… |

It Begins! India Is First Country To Start Nationwide Biometric ID Program For Every Citizen
The Mark of the Beast
For years now, we have warned and warned about the coming One World Government that will see it's completion in what the bible calls the mark of the beast. In the scary new world, every single citizen is registered and cataloged with the government through retinal scans, fingerprints and ultimately an implantable microchip. Sound far fetched, you say? Could never happen? It is happening in India right now to the tune of 1 million people being processed every 24 hours.
From the Activist Post: India has launched a nationwide program involving the allocation of a Unique Identification Number (UID) to every single one of its 1.2 billion residents. Each of the numbers will be tied to the biometric data of the recipient using three different forms of information – fingerprints, iris scans, and pictures of the face. All ten digits of the hand will be recorded, and both eyes will be scanned.
The project will be directed by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) under the premise of preventing identity theft and social welfare fraud. India has rather extensive social welfare and safety net programs, ranging from medical support and heating assistance to others aimed at helping the poor. Fraud is a rampant problem in India, especially in relation to these programs due to a preponderance of corrupt politicians and bureaucrats who often stuff welfare rolls with fake names and take the money for themselves.
Yet, although the justification for the billion person database is the increased ability to accurately disperse social welfare benefits, it will not be just the Indian government's social welfare programs that have access to and utilize the UIDAI. Indeed, even before the program has been completed, major banks, state/local governments, and other institutions are planning to use the UIDAI for identification verification purposes and, of course, payment and accessibility.
The program is introduced as a way to speed up transactions, increase efficiency, and provide convenience. Soon, however, governments and businesses begin to transition out of the older methods of payment and identification and focus more on the new technology. Identification using the traditional methods remain as an option, but become viewed as cumbersome. Eventually, the alternative methods are phased out completely and mandates replace what was once a personal choice.
As soon as Indian banks, businesses, and government social service offices begin to require identification using the UID, the ability to remain off the system and lead what passes for a normal life will disappear.
This is exactly the intention with India's new biometric ID program. In fact, the cashless society is a stated goal of the UID program. CEO of MindTree's IT Services, the company that was awarded the government contract for development and maintenance of the UID, explained in an interview with ComputerWeekly that the "ID scheme will support a cashless society. He said all vendors will have a biometric reader and citizens can pay for things with a fingerprint scan. Even a bag of rice."
This new monumental data mining effort by the Indian government dovetails with recent efforts in the Western world to develop an electronic surveillance grid capable of tracking, tracing, and recording every single movement and communication of every single citizen within a nation's borders.
New technologies which are being introduced inside the United States, the UK, and Australia such as vein scanners, biometric employee time and attendance systems, voice recognition devices, and behavior analysis systems are all geared toward Total Information Awareness of every human being on the planet. source – Activist Post

Fascinating article! Nevertheless, all these "visual signs" should serve to remind ALL followers of Yeshua that our time is for such a time as these days. This is exactly what Yeshua was referrint too as He prayed our behalves just before His ascension to the Father:
"I have given them your word, and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. I am not asking you to take them out of the world but to protect them from the evil one. They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. "Sanctify them by the truth. Your word is truth. Just as you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world." John 17:14-18
PLEASE DO NOT BE DECEIVED THAT THIS IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST.IT IS JUST A WAY THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS IS TRYING TO CONCENTRATE OUR MIND ON AND TAKE US AWAY FROM THE TRUE MARK OF THE BEAST.WHEN THAT HAPPENS,WE WILL NOT HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM TO UNDERSTAND AND RECEIVE THE SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD,(REV.7:2,3).AND IF WE DONT HAVE THE SEAL OF GOD,WE WILL HAVE THE MARK OF THE BEAST,(REV. 13:17,18).HOW SUBTLE THE DEVIL WAS AND IS STILL IS. PLEASE SEARCH IN THE BIBLE WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE THE MARK 'in their right hand, or in their foreheads:' REV. 13:16.GOD BLESS.
#6 Junior, the people coming to America did NOT create mass genocide as some would like to believe and would like others to believe. I believe with all of my heart that God brought this nation into being and He still cries over this nation. He has used this nation more than any other nation in human history to protect those of this earth who have been unable to protect themselves and most importantly to spread His word around the world, which has now reached the four corners of this world.
You need to study American history and especially the history of the American Indian BEFORE the discorevy of this nation by outsiders. Then come back and gives us a report on what you have learned. -
MARK 'on their foreheads' is definitely the creeds, dogmas or doctrines they are carrying in the womb of their minds…and it was already there since the days of the apostles (2Th_2:7; 1Jn_2:18; 1Jn_4:3 ). MARK 'in their hands' is the way they and their followers lived with and by it even until now! 2Jn_1:7
What is the mark of the beast?:
Prophecy for All Nations:
Prophecy for America, Canada & Europe:
Prophecy for ASIA (and India):
Isn't it interesting that India would be leading the way on this after BHO visited there last year. He has a number of statues of Hindu Gods like Hananuman. He has been very able to fool many people as to who he is and who he has for Gods.
Check out Know your enemy at the fuel project to see how all of the Mystery Babylon religions will blend and work together at the end. -
The following time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, however I really thought youd have something fascinating to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you may fix in the event you werent too busy on the lookout for attention.
They aren't saying it is but I've long known that it would be a implant like what they do with dogs or some sort of biometric usage. we now have QR code tatoos that link to websites and Apparently tatoos that will be linked to your cellphone. This india thing is a testbed for the real deal, It will be tested thouroughly before it's introduction. They will use this nation to develop the technology further until we have the finished product which will be the mark of the beast

THIS COUNTRY IS GOING TO BE PUT BEFORE GOD AND BE SMITED? if you were being told that by someone of your same faith or denomination and said to them i am better than you what do you know, and not even look into the facts the obvious or the right in front of you then you are destined for infinite pain and suffering.
God is a author and finisher of our faith. He is the Alpha and Omega. the beginning and the end Amen…. Why are we so much focus on what satan is doing? we must focus Jesus alone. I don't move by what is happening around me. God said I will never leave you no foresake you. he will be always be with us. He is Emanuel , God with us, Amen…. He said if He is with us, who can be against us. Our God is an awsome God. allow the Kindom of God to take over every structure of societies.
Living with somwone wwho hass a video game addiction:
. When you have an interest in common with a child you will find that conversations flow mlre easily.
Of course, there are many platformer games that followed
and will continue too follow. Maybe it is sttill too soon to understand if in tthe future videogames wilol be
studied aat school as one of thee main artistic expressions off our days, but this exhibition will certainly give its visitors some interessting stimuli
for reflection. Several game titles sch as Rune – Scape, that's created by
Artix Entertainment along with Mabinogi,
permit individuals to engage in free of charge. On the other hand,
when game playing is addictive, it takes over
as the person's main way oof dealing wirh life, with othber imoortant areas of life being
neglected or disrupted as a result. Programmihg is basic building block of any sound
video program and it takeds knowledge of 3-5 programming languags to make an astonishing video game application.

Siri on iPhone 4
Hi folks! So the iPhone 4S coolest feature by far has got to be Siri. The personal voice assistant. Well for those of us in Canada maybe not so cool, because she can't search Canadian locations. :) Anyways, apparently if you have a jailbroken phone you can port it over to your iPhone 4 and use...

A developer's lot is not always an easy one. Take, for example, making a choice between putting an application's data information and controls in palettes (like BBEdit does) or in a sidebar (like Mail does).
After all, some people prefer palettes. Some prefer sidebars, or drawers. You can't please all of the people all of the time, so which ones do you choose?
Gus Mueller faced this tricky decision with the recent release of VoodooPad 3. It was comment worthy for many reasons, most of them the impressive collection of features that Gus had taken the trouble to add to an already feature-packed application.
His decision to switch from a drawer to a series of palettes didn't please everyone. He even documented, with screenshots, how he considered, but abandoned a Mail-like sidebar before settling on the palettes.
Judging by this thread over at the Flying Meat forums, the sidebar isn't totally dead just yet, though.
In it, amid a series of posts about palette usability, Gus remarks: "I've gotten a lot of feedback about this, and I'm considering what to do for a future release. So I can't promise anything, but I'll look into using the drawer again."
Personally, I'm rather fond of the final sidebar design that Gus decided not to use.
Palettes? Sidebars? Which do you prefer? Does your choice vary according to the app, or the work being done?
Completely off-topic update: I've just found out in this thread that Gus has added Textile and Markdown support to VoodooPad's HTML Tools plugin. Yay!
