Beady Eye will give fans the first taster from their highly-anticipated new album tomorrow (10th Nov), when they release the track 'Bring The Light' as a free download on their official website.
The band, which comprises of ex-Oasis members Liam Gallagher, Gem Archer and Andy Bell, along with drummer Chris Sharrock who played with the group during their 2008-9 world tour, have been locked away in London with legendary producer Steve Lillywhite working on a new album which is due for release next year.
The music world has been eager to judge the resultant new work from the four-piece, who formed Beady Eye following Noel Gallagher's final walkout on Oasis back in August 2009, and was recently treated to a short 22-second clip when Beady Eye's new website launched last week. The short clip appears to point to the crisper, no-frills production which was a feature of Oasis' final studio album 'Dig Out Your Soul', and has only served to heighten the desire for Beady Eye's first full release.
In addition to the download, fans will also be able to purchase a limited edition 7″ vinyl of 'Bring The Light', which will include a new b-side entitled 'Sons Of The Stage'. Both the download and vinyl formats will be available from 10am (GMT).

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The number of Americans filing either continuing or first-time claims for unemployment benefits fell last week, a sign that the job market continues to slowly improve.
The number of Americans filing for ongoing claims dropped 80,000 to 3,706,000 in the week ended March 5, the most recent week available. That was the lowest number of continuing claims since September 2008, and below economists' forecast for 3,750,000 continuing claims.
Ongoing claims reflect people who file each week after their initial claim until the end of their standard benefits, usually at 26 weeks.
Although the decline is a welcome sign, Moody's Capital Markets Group chief economist John Lonski warned that the figure may be skewed by the expiration of benefits for those Americans who have been jobless for long periods of time and are no longer eligible for unemployment insurance.
While the length of eligibility varies by state, that maximum length of time Americans can file for benefits is 99 weeks.
Still, the downward trend in jobless claims is consistent with the recent decline in the unemployment rate, Lonski said. The unemployment rate fell to 8.9% last month, which the best reading since April 2009.
Meanwhile, there were 385,000 initial jobless claims filed in the week ended March 12, the Labor Department said Thursday. That was down 16,000 from the previous week's upwardly revised 401,000.
Economists surveyed by Briefing.com had expected initial claims to ease to 386,000 in the latest report.
The 4-week moving average of initial claims, which aims to smooth out volatility, also improved, falling to 386,250 from the previous week's revised average of 397,250.
The weekly figure had been drifting within the 400,000 and 500,000 range for over a year, but has managed to trend downward and break below that level in recent weeks. In fact, jobless claims filed during the last week of February were the lowest since May 2008.
"We are making progress on the jobs front, and we'll likely continue to see claims fall throughout the month of March," Lonski said. "But for many Americans, the progress is still too slow."
While the outlook for job creation has been brighter in recent months, Lonski said the recent volatility in the stock market may stall business and consumer spending, which in turn can damage prospects for hiring.
"The key to job creation is sufficient growth in spending by both consumers and businesses," Lonski said. "And unfortunately, what's happening in financial markets threatens to slow spending and the pace of hiring."

Liberal on Liberal Violence, MSNBC's Fineman Calls Lehrer 'Useless' and criminally negligent
MSNBC contributor Howard Fineman lamented how the president was on the defensive concerning his first bout with Republican nominee Mitt Romney last night.: Jim Lehrer, who moderated the October 3 debate, has a history of bias that is usually cloaked with his soporific disposition. However, Fineman seemed agitated to the point of calling Lehrer "useless" and equated his moderating of the debate to "criminal negligence.": Fineman's ire seems to be indicative of liberals' reaction towards Obama's poor debate performance
This latest incident on liberal on liberal violence could be cathartic for those on the political left as they discover that the president isn't a very good debater
HOWARD FINEMAN: In terms of debate tactics, Romney was on the offensive most of the time — the president did very well on Medicare, but for the rest of it — and Obamacare — rest of it he did not. He missed many chances to correct the record or to ask questions.: Jim Lehrer was practically useless as the moderator. : It was criminal negligence: not to follow up on the question — Mr. Romney specifically what tax loopholes or deductions do you want to get rid of — he didn't ask it. The president should have asked it.: That's only one example of many and it was clear to everybody in this room tonight what happened in this debate.

Salmon, Napolitano cross paths again over federal release of illegal immigrants
- Mike Sunnucks
- Senior Reporter- Phoenix Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Facebook
U.S. Rep. Matt Salmon, R-Ariz., and U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano are not political strangers.
Napolitano edged out Salmon in the 2002 Arizona governor's race. Salmon and Napolitano also worked together during that tight campaign against a ballot measure that would have decriminalized marijuana
The two Arizonans paths have crossed again in Washington.
Salmon, who was elected in November to an East Valley U.S. House seat, is part of Republican efforts to keep up the pressure on Napolitano over why the U.S. Department of Homeland Security released some illegal immigrants held in federal jails before the automatic sequestration cuts kicked in after March 1.
U.S. Reps. David Schweikert, Paul Gosar and Trent Franks have also signed on to a letter from GOP lawmakers asking Napolitano for information on the releases and why they happened. Some of the illegal immigrant releases occurred in Arizona.
U.S. Sens. Jeff Flake and John McCain have also made similar written requests of Napolitano.
Salmon served Congress before losing to Napolitano in 2002. He worked as a lobbyist before filling the vacant East Valley left open when Flake ran for Senate. Napolitano served as Arizona governor from 2003 to 2009 when she quit to take the homeland security cabinet post in the Barack Obama administration

Airlines Are Unlocking New Value In Their Frequent Flier Programs
February 26, 2015 by Scott Applebee · Leave a Comment
Reversing the direction of what we've seen recently in frequent flyer programs, Business Insider says that airlines are now finding value in their frequent flyer programs.
The recent trend has been for airlines to find ways to deny privileges to customers involved in frequent flyer programs (such as putting a stop to mileage runs). That trend probably isn't going to change, but airlines are finding ways to monetize these programs in a way that, so far, doesn't seem to be of much benefit to travelers themselves.
Getting on board the Big Data bandwagon, airlines have started harvesting and selling the data they've gathered about their frequent flyers. They're selling this data to a variety of sources; Business Insider lists credit card providers, rental car companies, and hotels.
This data is so valuable, Air Berlin recently sold a stake in its frequent flyer program for more than what the entire Air Berlin corporation was valued at.
"It's extremely powerful data, especially as it tends to be slanted towards the premium segment," said Marc Allsop, senior vice president and head of global business development at Aimia.
In other words, frequent flyers tend to be very desirable customers. Anyone who travels enough to rack up that many miles tends to have money to spare, even when the person's travel is on the company's dime.
Plus, the information being harvested isn't just related to facts about the person. It can potentially include details about recent trips a particular person has taken.
How do you feel about your frequent flyer information being harvested and sold to a third party? Leave us a comment to let us know if that sounds just fine to you or if you'd prefer to go back to the days when your data was just between you and your airline.

To Boost Safety, Cruise Lines Want to Be More Like Airlines
February 24, 2015 by Scott Applebee · Leave a Comment
With a number of embarrassing, and very public, hits to cruise ship safety over the last several years, cruise lines are looking at the airline industry as a standard for safety. A recent article in Businessweek looked at how cruise lines are responding to three huge safety failures in 2012 and 2013, including the infamous grounding of a cruise ship in Italy in 2012 and two serious fires in 2013.
The cruise lines have realized that they need to focus on being safe by reducing crew errors and increasing safety protocols.
Since the 1980s, safety has been a high concern for airlines. They've pioneered many programs that cruise lines now hope to adapt for themselves. They have seen that crew error is the largest risk factor in any type of accident, so they're working to reduce those first.
Another way airlines have increased staff efficiency is to randomly send personnel out for an annual performance check of pilot performance in the cockpit. The cruise line is considering that as well.
Another airline safety protocol is to track data from the cockpit related to any deviation from standard procedure and finding out why it occurred. This could be an important protocol to increase cruise ship safety.

Use Your Smartphone As Your Hotel Key
February 19, 2015 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
For weary travelers, even the tiniest road block can seem exhausting and annoying. In an attempt to smooth things out for their guests, Starwood Hotels and Resorts now gives guests the option of skipping check-in and using their smartphones as their hotel keys. Hilton is also planning on rolling out a similar scheme later this year.
The phone as room key may be a bit more complicated than it sounds though. Starwood has only rolled out the feature in one hotel so far, with plans to include it in more hotels later this year. There's a lot of technological behind-the-scenes work that goes into making this work, such as replacing the current locks with new ones, and making sure the steps are in place so guests don't accidentally unlock their doors.
Plus, this only works with one phone per room, so if more than one guest is staying in the room, one of them gets to use their phone, the other(s) will use a normal room key.
In this case, hotels see many reasons to go the extra mile to make checking in easier. They're hoping that getting guests comfortable with using their phones for hotel-related activities will ease the guests into using other hotel apps. Future wish-list items include allowing guests to order drinks while sitting poolside, book spa packages, and order expensive room service, all with a mobile app.
Of course, a lot of hotels have begun to roll out the ability to check in via your phone. You can get all the red tape out of the way while you're in the cab, and then just pick up your old fashioned hotel key on your way to your room.
What are some things you would like to be able to do at a hotel with your smartphone? Leave a comment below and let us hear from you.
Important Travel Documents For Traveling With Kids
February 17, 2015 by Scott Applebee · Leave a Comment
Traveling with your children isn't like running down to the grocery store with them. Just like you need your own passport and other travel documents, you need to have certain documents with you when you travel with your kids.
The Huffington Post has an extensive and helpful list they suggest you carry with you when traveling internationally with your family.
Obviously, a passport isn't going to be a necessity on domestic trips, but HuffPo suggests you bring physical copies of the following: your child's birth certificate, a signed permission slip if there's a parent who isn't traveling with you, vaccination certifications, travel insurance, emergency contacts, telephone numbers for healthcare facilities at your destination, emergency first aid instructions, a list of your child's allergies, and your full itinerary with contact information.
The list makes a lot of sense, although it may be a little too thorough. Be aware that carrying all that paper documentation can be a security risk. (Think about what happens if that information were stolen.) But you can keep a lot of it on a cloud-based app, such as Evernote or Google Drive, which you can download to your phone or tablet as needed.
On the other hand, what if your phone charger is damaged or you end up in a remote site with no service? With Evernote, you can download documents to your phone's app, and then lock it with a security code. Otherwise, you could end up with a huge phone bill if you need to access another country's wireless network to access the information.
Be sure to do your research before you travel and know what you need. You may not need everything on this list for some of the places you're visiting, so it's better to determine it in advance.

Worth It or a Waste? The Real Deal on Five Common Travel Upgrades
February 12, 2015 by Scott Applebee · Leave a Comment
A recent article on Lifehacker got us chatting about which travel upgrades seem worth it to us, and which were a waste of money.
There were differing opinions on the Travelpro team about whether shelling out for extra space is worth the additional cost. Those of us who feel hemmed in on flights, especially those of us who are tall (I'm 6'5″) said they will pay extra, especially for longer trips. Those who are more frugal (or smaller) said they don't see a big difference in comfort and recommend snagging an aisle seat since that can give you the illusion of more space. Another good way to increase the amount of space you feel like you have is to keep the under seat luggage to a minimum. It's worth it if you need the room, but a waste if you're smaller, or the trip is shorter than two hours.
We didn't like the idea of paying for wifi, either at the airport or your hotel, especially if you're on vacation. And even if you're traveling for business, we suggest you trot down to a local coffee shop to get wifi while you sip a nice latte. Another option, which the article also mentions, is paying for a mobile hotspot so you have your own wifi wherever you go. And apparently, the new iPhone 6 includes this as a feature you don't even have to pay extra for the bandwidth. (Another reason to upgrade sooner rather than later!) This one is a waste, unless you get the iPhone or other mobile hotspot.
A luxury we can get behind is the concept of club floors at hotels. These are special floors that serve meals, snacks, and drinks. You pay extra for the access but you do get pampered and you can eat there instead of going out. This feature adds about 20 to 30 percent to your bill, which is fine for those who don't plan on eating out very often, making this worth it for the home bodies. It's pleasant to be pampered, but foodies may not find it worthwhile. But if you're going out more than staying in, or you prefer local eateries to chain food, this one is a waste.
A luxury the article doesn't discuss is the option of paying for a day in the first class airport lounges. This typically costs about $50 for a day. It's a great idea if you're traveling for business or if you have a particularly long layover. The atmosphere is a lot more relaxed than the rest of the airport. Wifi is included and the staff make sure you know when your flight is getting ready to leave. This one is definitely worth it.
What are some of the worth it/waste upgrades you've found on your travels? Leave us a comment and let us know.
The Case of the Disappearing Amenities
February 10, 2015 by Scott Applebee · Leave a Comment
Most people take home a tiny bar of soap and some lotion when they leave a hotel. They may also have tiny bottles of shampoo and conditioner tucked away in their luggage as they glide through the lobby and out the front doors. Perhaps a shower cap to boot.
Not a big deal, as it turns out. In fact, many hotels sort of expect, and even want you to take their small sample soaps.
A recent study by Hilton Hotels showed that 73 percent of respondents were willing to admit they took home some swag from their last visit to a hotel.
People take these toiletries home and use them to stock their guest bathrooms. It does feel pretty fancy to select your own soap when staying the weekend with Auntie Margie. Others use the stuff themselves or even give it away as gifts. (Because nothing says love and friendship like a small bar of soap with a major hotel chain's name on it.)
In fact, Hilton is using premier brands as an additional selling point for their hotels. A recent article in Premier Traveler Magazine's website lists Neutrogena, Giovanni, Aroma Actives, Refinery, and Peter Thomas Roth as new additions to Hilton's arsenal of body care products. These are some toiletry heavy hitters. Hilton, in fact, is glad to offer these miniature bottles of bliss as part of what they offer the weary (and upscale) traveler.
We understand the importance of quality toiletries in ensuring guests stay revitalized during — and after — their travels," said Chris Naylor, vice president, brand operations for Hilton Worldwide. "The refresh of these bathroom products is part of our commitment to enhancing the overall travel experience, leaving our guests fresh and ready for their next adventure."
The brands themselves also get buzz from being placed into the posh hotels.
Of course, it's unlikely that someone will book into a hotel based solely on a love for Peter Thomas Roth, but these little details add up. And in the world of high end travel, encouraging your guests to steal soap can be a solid move.

Airplane Cabin Designed for Optimal Rollaboard Luggage Space
February 5, 2015 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
A recent article on the PSFK.com website discusses the emergence of a way more convenient form of travel. The Embraer Air E2 jet seeks to maximize the room for your carry on luggage as well as make the flight itself more comfortable. There's 40 percent more room for luggage onboard the plane, and you can actually fit an airline standard piece of luggage in the overhead bin, wheels first. Not having to obsess over the size of your suitcase would be a wonderful feeling.
Plus, each traveler has a lot of personal space. Seats move around independently, and there's enough room for it so no one will yell at you for leaning back or putting your knees in the back of their seat. The seats can even be staggered so you're not directly next to the person in your row.The designers tried to rethink the way flyers experience their trip, so the planes were designed to be more comfortable and personable. They wanted to give passengers a feeling of having their own territory during the flight.
The Embraer Air E2 jet is slated to come out in 2018. However, it may not be very likely that the weary American traveler will see one of these up close and personal. Embraer, a Brazilian company, serves the market for planes that seat up to 130. That's definitely smaller than our large jets. And although it's around the size of a commuter jet, it seems unlikely that the folks flying local routes between regional airports are going to spring for a high-end plane.
That said, SkyWest has apparently placed an order for 100 of them, so you may be one of the lucky few if you book a SkyWest flight in three years or so.

Avoid Selfies on Vacation
February 3, 2015 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
An October article by Narina Exelby on the Kitbaggers website really struck a chord with us, when it comes to vacation photos. She discussed how taking photos of yourself — selfies — while on vacation can distract you to the point where you fail to relish the beauty and new experiences around you.
We couldn't agree more.
Exelby argues that selfies take time away from what is really important when traveling, which is exploring new things and remaining present to appreciate the moment.
Although everyone is free to take selfies at any time, we agree with Exelby. Slow down and take a look around you when on vacation. Enjoy yourself and don't worry about telling people back home what you're up to.
Posting a selfie to Twitter or Facebook can take as much as three minutes. If you do that five times a day, that's 15 minutes per day spent posting photos. That's over an hour a week. That time really adds up, and your vacation becomes more about posting photos of yourself rather than enjoying the vacation. Instead of admiring the Eiffel Tower, you're focused on getting the best possible shot of yourself in front of the Eiffel Tower.
Another concern is that constantly updating your social media streams with vacation photos can be a security risk. That photo of you in a canoe in Florida lets folks know you're not home, and won't be for a while. And if you're traveling some place where your personal safety is at risk, you may want to keep a lower profile.
You can still take pictures. You can even take selfies. Photos are a great way to remember fun times you've had. But don't let the photos become the main driver of your vacation. It should definitely be the vacation, and your time to relax, that comes first.

US & CanadaGuilty plea in 'Jihad Jane' case Colleen LaRose, who had previously denied the allegations against her, now faces possibility of life in US prison. 02 Feb 2011 03:15 GMT | US & Canada, United States Prosecutors said LaRose used screen names like Jihad Jane, SisterOfTerror and ExtremeSister4Life [WPVI-TV via AFP] A suburban woman has told a US judge in Philadelphia that she had worked feverishly online under the name Jihad Jane to support Muslim fighters and moved overseas to further her plan to kill a Swedish artist who had offended Muslims. Colleen LaRose, 47, faces the possibility of life in prison after pleading guilty on Tuesday to four federal charges, including conspiracy to murder a foreign target, conspiracy to support terrorists and lying to the FBI. Speaking clearly but quietly, the LaRose told a judge she had never been treated for any mental-health problems and was entering her plea freely. She whispered a few comments to her lawyers, some of them prompting a smile from public defender Mark Wilson. Wilson declined to comment afterward. "We'll have a lot to say at sentencing," he said. LaRose, who was the live-in caretaker for her boyfriend's elderly father, also was building a shadow life online from 2008 to 2009. According to prosecutors, LaRose "worked obsessively on her computer to communicate with, recruit and incite other jihadists", using screen names including Jihad Jane, SisterOfTerror and ExtremeSister4Life. LaRose returned to the US in November 2009 and was immediately taken into FBI custody at Philadelphia International Airport. She remained in secret custody until March, when her indictment was unsealed hours after Irish authorities swept up an alleged "terrorist cell" that included another American women, Jamie Paulin-Ramirez, 32, of Colorado, and her Algerian husband. LaRose had previously denied the allegations against her and had pleaded not guilty before changing her plea on Tuesday. But prosecutors said LaRose and her co-conspirators had hoped her all-American appearance and US citizenship would help her blend in while carrying out their plans. "Today's guilty plea, by a woman from suburban America who plotted with others to commit murder overseas and to provide material support to terrorists, underscores the evolving nature of the threat we face," David Kris, assistant US attorney general, said. LaRose and Paulin-Ramirez are the rare US women charged with terrorism. Paulin-Ramirez has pleaded not guilty and her lawyer, Jeremy Ibrahim, declined to say whether she will enter a plea or head to trial on May 2. However, he believes LaRose's plea will benefit his client's case.Source: Agencies

Basketball: Thames Valley get off to a flyer: Towers toppled by fast-moving Latvians
Nigel Lloyd, with 24 points, and Tony Holley, with 19, dominated the scoring but Vienna were softened up by a relentless assault from Michael Hayles, Peter Scantlebury, Michael Obaseki and Tony Balogun. Three three-pointers from Nick Cook, executed from acres of space after Tigers had destroyed the defence, epitomised their domination. Tomorrow's semi-final opponents, Broceni Riga, will demand that Thames Valley move more swiftly into gear.
London Towers were ready to face Bulgarians in their opening game but found the Latvians from Riga were more than ready when called on to perform 24 hours earlier than they expected.
Levski Spartak withdrew from the tournament on Wednesday night when the familiar story of lack of funds provoked a players' strike, leaving London without any opponents until Riga turned a scheduled training session into a 102-71 win over the Budweiser League's fourth-placed club.
Peter Scantlebury has been elected president of the first Basketball Players Association.
WORLD INVITATION CLUB BASKETBALL (Crystal Palace): Broceni Riga 102 (Zeidaks 24, Balatskis 16, Gadachev 12) London Towers 71 (Scantlebury 18, Moore 15); Thames Valley Tigers 107 (Lloyd 24, Holley 19, Cook 13, Balogun 13) Basket Flyers Vienna 70 (Lott 23, Davies 22).

"We had our family get-away and stayed here. It was outstanding! Everyone really enjoyed the views and location of this beautiful home. Would definitely come and stay here again. We had our 2 small grandchildren and it was very secure with locking gates on every stairway and top locks on the outside doorway. Very clean, well stocked, nice appliances. Owner extremely nice and friendly and accomodating."
"This location was such a marvelous find! We (four adults and 2 children) arrived and were instantly awed by the stunning view of the ocean. The gas fireplace was so enjoyable during the cool mornings and evenings. We were entertained each day by dolphins and seals. The path to the beach just a few houses down was so convenient for the hours spent each day in the sun. Gina was pleasant to work with and quick to answer questions. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us."
"My family and I spent the weekend here and had an amazing time. The house was cozy, the beds were as comfortable as those at a high-class hotel and the view felt like a dream. I highly recommend this vacation home. If you are worried about being on a road, don't be. Very little traffic, nice neighbors and nothing but incredible memories to take with you."

Line-up /Julio Bashmore, Paul Raffaele, Rem Koolhaus
It might seem counterintuitive for a producer to detach themselves from one of the planet's most thriving music scenes, but in the case of Julio Bashmore, that's exactly what he did growing up in bass music hotbed, Bristol. You see, Julio's first love is house music. And operating just on the peripheries of the city's scene has allowed him to quietly cultivate a take on the genre unlike any other.

DAYTON, OHIO A healthy back allows for movement in different directions, including side-to-side motion (lateral flexion). Side bends help increase both strength and flexibility of the low back and the abdominals, supporting the spine and helping to improve posture.
Muscles worked include those along the low back (quadratus lumborum), the erector spinae, which lie on both sides of the spinal column, and the internal and external obliques, which act to flex and rotate the spine.
Execution: Stand with feet approximately shoulder-width apart, holding onto one dumbbell in your right hand. In a slow and controlled manner, slowly lean to the right just to the point where a gentle stretch is felt along the left side of the waistline/low back.
Pause for a second, and then in one slow movement and keeping yourself from twisting, return to an upright position and to the left side, contracting the left side muscles of the waist and using the resistance of the dumbbell for strengthening.
After completing the set, repeat, holding the dumbbell in the left hand.
Tips: Side bends can be used primarily as a core strengthener (moderate resistance), or strictly as a flexibility exercise (lighter resistance). It is not necessary to use a heavy weight in order to benefit from this exercise. Using weights that are too heavy places needless stress on the spinal column and can lead to low back pain.
The exercise can be performed standing or seated, although while standing, more of the stabilizing postural muscles are involved.
The arms should remain straight during each repetition, without locking the elbow. As you are leaning from side to side, do not use the arm muscles to lift the dumbbell. Lifting should come from the midsection.
Perform side bends in a slow and controlled manner. When leaning side to side, do not twist the torso, and avoid overstretching.
Keep the shoulders lined up, and bend to the side no more than 30 degrees.
Start with one to two sets of eight to 12 repetitions on each side. Add reps and/or sets as you become stronger.
To maintain strength balance, perform other abdominal exercises along with side bends.

The Business First staff visited Valhalla Golf Club this morning, and we'll be there all week. Check out our Golf Championship Roundup page here.

Sorry, this item sold. You may also like:
This is a gorgeous cherry trough/bowl that has been marked down from $195 due to a reattached piece (approx.2")between hole and large natural crack at one end. See picture #5. I brushed flour over the 2 hairline cracks(on underside)so they would show up. They really are not noticable. When lifting and moving the piece I am careful not to grab at it is all. Also,the large natural cracks were left as we felt it added character. It was hand carved using multiple grinding tools and many many hours of sanding. Finally several applications of food safe, non toxic clear walnut oil were applied.The result is a natural satin finish. It is quite a sight when plaaced in the center if a long table, providing a seasonal centerpiece to fill or not. It looks great on a fireplace mantle as well.

Marcia Cross Doubles Her Fun in the Sun
Sun weary mama Marcia Cross dolled up her two beauties for a Sunday at the park.
Brimmed hats provided ample shade for the fair–skinned lil ladies. Savannah rocked the mini True Religion jeans, while Eden opted for a more comfortable get up of sweats and Swedish moccasins.
Both babes look like they adore their playful mum. Marcia is one active celeb mama — cuddling, crawling, sliding, hugging, and shoulder rides were all part of her agenda.
To see more pictures of the droolicious cuties, read more.

Did Moses Talk to God, Aliens, a Volcano, or just Himself?
page: 3

posted on Apr, 21 2012 @ 01:07 AM
I don't know...but Moses for sure STOLE the Arc of the Covenant from the Egyptians and brought it back to the Jews. The Arc of Covenant was a sacred powerful artifact that contained the "power of god". If you look at the design of the Arc it is EGYPTIAN ART...Two statues of the Goddess Iris on top. A winged Hawk body with a womans head.
The Arc was stolen from the Great Pyramid in Giza...I was just there in Egypt. Inside the Kings chamber...there is no way in hell that was a tomb for a King. Its not decorated, no writing on the walls, NOTHING! It looks like the inside of a machine, or a boiler room. Inside that Kings Chamber is one big EMPTY stone box. That just so happens to be the exact dimensions of the Arc of the Covenant.
Maybe this ties in to all the NWO conspiracies...seems like the "Keepers of the Arc" are the most powerful. First the Egyptians...now the Jews and Americans. Just to rub it in, we put the great pyramid ont he back of our dollar...and infused Egyptian symbolism throughout all of our locations of significance. White House, Jerusalem, Vatican....
All starts with the story of Exodus. Maybe there is some truth that there was advanced alien technology that powered the Egyptians...regardless of what you believe, its in both sides of the stories. Moses STOLE the ARC, brought it to the Jews, and now who's running sh!t? Why was Hitler obsessed with finding it and so against Jews?
The stories may all connect actually.
Just a theory, that after seeing the Pyramids with my own eyes...and doing some research...I believe.

Of course it was an alien! Loud-speaker and a light bulb in a bush and the people in those days with zero technology and zero concept of it would have virtually dropped dead with awe and a lack of ability to comprehend what it could possibly be - burning bush that is lit but has no flames is so obviously a light bulb!

That's probably how every despot in world history has viewed himself. Jehovah was just another tyrant and a really evil one at that.

Hi everyone.
I came across this thread while doing my regular checks to see if it's gone viral yet....that the Hebrews worshipped volcanic activity. Small intrepid steps are being taken, usually months apart. Oh well, we'll get there in the end. Fortunately there are some prominant people born as Jews who agree with my ideas and one is currently completing a PHD on the subject.
Please take the time to thoroughly inspect my many posts, each of which is a piece of the jigsaw. You cannot judge this theory adequately without reading the whole blog. It's not perfect and is disorganised (it's just a diary of my ideas and findings) but it should give you a good idea of my theory.
Please pass it on and ask other people what they think to it.
