Listening to hear the truth?

from Author William Wright

A 92-year-old man went to the doctor to get a physical. A few days later the doctor saw the man walking down the street with a gorgeous young lady on his arm. At the man’s next appointment, the doctor said, “Looks like you’re doing just fine.”

The man replied, “Just doing what you said, Doc: ‘Get a hot mamma and be cheerful.’”

The doctor said, “I didn’t say that! I said you got a heart murmur. Be careful.”

Amazing Heavens

Earth and Space: Photographs from the Archives of NASA puts some of our most magnificent space imagery in context, and it’s enough to make anyone feel like just the tiniest little speck of stardust. It’s great! Here’s a peek inside.

Sinkhole of St Albans

A massive sinkhole has opened up on a street in St Albans, forcing the evacuation of several families from their homes in the night.

The 66ft (20m) diameter hole spread across a front garden and driveway on Fontmell Close and is 33ft (10m) deep.

Hertfordshire County Council said five homes were evacuated and 20 people were taken to a centre set up at the nearby Batchwood Sports Centre.

fitness without exercise?

Scientists are working on an “exercise pill” so you never have to work out again

Imagine if, instead of sweating on the treadmill and forcing yourself through repetitive sit-ups, you could have the benefits of exercise without any of the effort. That scenario isn’t a ridiculous fantasy but a serious scientific goal, and researchers have recently published a major breakthrough: They have created a blueprint of the molecular reactions to exercise.

Gatekeepers

(1 Chronicles 9:18) 18 and until then he was at the king’s gate to the east. These were the gatekeepers of the camps of the Levites.

---

Temple Gates. East Gate. Nehemiah’s reconstruction account tells us that the keeper of the East Gate shared in the repair work. (Ne 3:29) Thus the East Gate is not designated as a gate in Jerusalem’s wall, as some have thought. The East Gate may have been approximately in line with the Inspection Gate in the city wall. This gate is evidently the one mentioned in 1 Chronicles 9:18 as “the king’s gate to the east,” ” being the gate where the king went into or came out from the temple.

Stress Hormone

We’ve all had those weeks where crazy amounts of stress leave us soothing our woes with late-night ice cream binges. But before your shame-spiral over your lack of self-control, weak willpower isn’t the only thing at blame in these scenarios.

Meet the stress hormone cortisol, which is responsible for your body’s “fight or flight” mechanism (more on that later). It’s been called public health enemy No. 1 for its link to heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, memory loss and more. And it might be responsible for weight gain and throwing your eating habits off the rails, too. Here’s how cortisol might be messing with your body—and what you can do about it.

Cortisol vs. Your Waistline

Genealogy of Your Brain

Each of your neurons is more closely related to heart cells than to most of its neighbors. Why?

People talk about an individual’s genome as if it was a single consistent entity—but it isn’t. Every one of us actually contains a cosmopolitan melting pot of different genomes. Our 37 trillion or so cells all arose from a single fertilized egg, and as this progenitor divided again and again, its daughters picked up mutations in their DNA that distinguished them, and their descendants, from their neighbors.

meaty—vegan?

This Fruit Will Be Your New Favorite Meat Substitute
Plant-based diet practitioners are going crazy for this Southeast Asian fruit

If you think all meat substitutes are awful, you don't know jack(fruit).

In the past two decades, vegetarian cuisine has come a long way. But meat substitutes have remained stubbornly stuck in the Tofurkey-era. Aside from the development of lab-grown meat—which is still a few years away from the supermarket shelf—and pea-based burgers, vegetarians with carnivorous cravings are basically limited to tempeh, tofu, soy crumbles, and seitan.

Eat Algae?

The Next Big Sports Food Is... Algae?

Boston company ENERGYbits is selling algae strains spirulina and chlorella as the next chia seeds: power supplements that improve stamina and reduce inflammation. The algae is sold in one-calorie tablets about the size of an Advil, and the company recommends taking 30 spirulina tabs 15 to 20 minutes before exercise, then another 30 chlorella tabs immediately following in order to get algae’s full endurance and recovery benefits. Promised superhuman power as motivation, I recently found myself standing in my kitchen with a palmful of green pills, wondering if I could down them all in one gulp. (It took two.)

nuclear tsunami

ISIS planning ‘nuclear tsunami’
Nuclear annihilation across the globe. This is what a German reporter who successfully embedded with the Islamic State says the terror group is planning. Jurgen Todenhofer released his findings in a book titled “Inside IS - Ten Days in the Islamic State,” reports the UK’s Daily Express.

“The terrorists plan on killing several hundred million people. The west is drastically underestimating the power of ISIS. ISIS intends to get its hands on nuclear weapons,” says Todenhofer, calling the group a “nuclear tsunami preparing the largest religious cleansing in history.”

Knights

Issachar

The name Issachar means “He Is Wages,” or, “He Brings Wages.” It refers to how his mother Leah got the privilege of bearing him to Jacob. (Gen. 30:14-18) He was Jacob’s ninth son, and in the naming of the twelve tribes of spiritual Israel Issachar is ranked as ninth. His father Jacob likened him to a powerful, hardworking beast of burden, one that sticks to his burden, one that can take rest without getting rid of his double load. The two saddlebags may picture the burdens of peace and war that Issachar carried during the history of Israel.

False Prophets

Just incase you missed it, the End of the World Last Wednesday...
 Sorry the news item reached our News Desk a little late.
Here is a copy of the notification from the 7th October 2015

---

It’s the end of the world as we know it. Well, that is, if you believe this online Christian group. The Daily Dot reports that an internet-based website called eBible Fellowship claims the world will end this Wednesday—which is today.

“According to what the Bible is presenting it does appear that 7 October will be the day that God has spoken of: in which, the world will pass away,” leader and founder of the fellowship Chris McCann, said. “It’ll be gone forever. Annihilated.”

About Trees

Trees play a crucial role supporting life across the globe, producing oxygen and absorbing climate change-causing carbon dioxide. But, despite the plant’s importance, humans have had little idea how many trees actually live on planet Earth.

Sons of Samuel

(1 Chronicles 6:28) 28 The sons of Samuel were Joel the firstborn and A·biʹjah the second.

---

The firstborn son of the prophet Samuel; a descendant of No. 2 and father of Heman the Levitical singer. (1Ch 6:28, 33, 36; 15:17) Joel and his younger brother Abijah had been appointed by their father to be judges, but their dishonesty in office gave the people an excuse to ask for a human king.— 1Sa 8:1-5.

Imitate the Gileadites

GOING out to serve as a missionary in a foreign land is not an easy thing. It means leaving behind friends, relatives and familiar surroundings. It requires adjusting to new circumstances and possibly facing unfamiliar problems. But there are abundant blessings that await those willing and able to make sacrifices in helping honest-hearted people to become devoted servants of Jehovah God.

The fifty young men and women who graduated from the Watchtower Bible School of Gilead on March 4, 1974, have reason to look forward to these blessings. This is because most of them received assignments to serve as missionaries in foreign fields.

Real Value

A wealthy man and his son loved to collect rare works of art.  They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael.  They would often sit together and admire the great works of art.  When the Vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war.  He was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was notified and grieved deeply for his only son.

About a month later there was a knock at the door.  A young man stood at the door with a large package in his hands. He said, Sir, you don't know me, but I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and he died instantly. He often talked about you, and your love for art.

The young man held out his package. "I know this isn't much. I'm not really a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this."

Love Birds

Recently, my husband and I were walking through a local mall near closing time, when we decided to stop and take a look around the pet store. As we made our way past the cages of poodles and Pomeranians, tabby cats and turtles, our eye caught sight of something that immediately charmed us: a pair of peach-faced lovebirds. Unlike many other lovebirds we encountered there, this particular pair looked truly "in love."  In fact, they snuggled and cuddled next to each other the whole time we watched them.  Throughout the next few days, my mind returned to the image of those two delightful birds.  I admired their devotion, and felt their very presence inspiring.

Horse sense

MADELYN RYAN has an affinity for horses and a love for performing. She posed with her blue ribbons and riding horse Ashton, above. The two won several awards at a dressage show last year. Madelyn, 17, said, “We competed in Second Level and did a Musical Freestyle. We took first in every class, and at the end of the day we won high point! The musical freestyle is a lot of fun. It involves picking music that matches your horse’s gaits and personality, then you choreograph the specific, required movements for that level, and finally you put it all together. Every time we do the freestyle, it’s always a big hit at a show. Ashton and I have a really fun time with it!”

About Geese

FACT 1: As each goose flaps its wings, it creates "uplift" for the birds that follow. By flying in a "V" formation, the whole flock adds 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew alone.
LESSON: People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier, because they are travelling on the thrust of one another.

Jaʹbez

(1 Chronicles 4:9, 10) 9 Jaʹbez was more honorable than his brothers; and his mother named him Jaʹbez, saying: “I gave birth to him in pain.” 10 Jaʹbez called on the God of Israel, saying: “O that you would bless me and enlarge my territory and let your hand be with me and preserve me from calamity, so that it may bring no harm to me!” So God brought about what he had asked for.

DOES Jehovah God really answer the sincere prayers of devoted worshippers? The Bible account about a littleknown man named Jabez shows that Jehovah is indeed the “Hearer of prayer.” (Psalm 65:2) This brief account is found in what might seem an unlikely place—in the midst of the genealogical lists that open the book of First Chronicles. Let us examine 1 Chronicles 4:9, 10. All that we know about Jabez is found in these two verses. According to verse 9, his mother “called his name Jabez, saying: ‘I have given him birth in pain.’” Why did she choose such a name? Did she bring forth this son with more than the usual birth pangs? Was she perhaps a widow, lamenting the fact that her husband was not there to welcome their baby into the world? The Bible does not say. But this mother would someday have reason to be especially proud of this son. Jabez’ siblings may have been upright men, but “Jabez came to be more honorable than his brothers.”

Free from Pressure

We've all seen pictures of the huge Black or Striped Marlin being hooked by fishermen, and the gruelling and exhausting duel between the strapped-in fisherman and the thrashing fish (sometimes called a Sailfish or Spearfish, and documented to reach 1,400 lbs). As the huge fish starts to tire out, he will begin to surface, breaking water in a most dramatic way, shaking his head vigorously trying to throw the hook which could very well mean his eventual death. We might well consider why he does that. It has been said that the reason is that with the pressure under the water, he is unable to successfully sling his head back and forth, hoping to free himself by dislodging the hook. The water surrounding his head under the surface limits his ability to escape the line.

Maintaining Peace and Security?

From The United Nations Website

Quotation in part/Link

High-level thematic debate: Maintenance of International Peace and Security

Opening remarks by Mr. Mogens Lykketoft, President of the  70th Session of the United Nations General Assembly. at high-level thematic debate: Maintenance of International Peace and Security

 1 October, 2015

The desire for lasting peace was the driving force behind the birth of the United Nations 70 years ago. Peace, as you all know, is not simply the absence of conflict. It is a mind-set. And it is also about how we prevent conflicts, respond to threats and recover from them.

insomnia because of genetics?

Women are known to suffer more from sleep disturbances, partly thanks to raising young children and hormonal fluctuations. But it turns out there’s also a genetic reason for exhaustion in women.

Restraint is necessary

One windy spring day, I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Multicoloured creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds darting and dancing in the heady atmosphere above the earth. As the strong winds gusted against the kites, a string kept them in check.

Instead of blowing away with the wind, they arose against it to achieve great heights. They shook and pulled, but the restraining string and the cumbersome tail kept them in tow, facing upward and against the wind. As the kites struggled and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, "Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free!" They soared beautifully even as they fought the imposed restriction of the string. Finally, one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose. "Free at last" it seemed to say. "Free to fly with the wind."

Two Snakes

If we have ever seen a snake on the wild life stories, then we may remember seeing what happens when two snakes come in contact with each other. They will hiss and keep their mouth open as wide as they can. They move from side to side as they wait for an opportunity to strike.

As soon as one tires out and closes his mouth, the other snake strikes and it is all over for the other snake.

Dashboard warning light

Most of us have seen a red light come on our car's dashboard. Maybe for oil pressure, engine temperature, brake system, low fuel, etc. We can avoid much trouble by giving the needed attention to these warning light signals; as soon as possible!

There is a Spiritual Dash Board Warning Lights System that each of us need to check on regularly.

What are these Warning Indicators.

Depression: A Part of this Life

Well, what are some of the causes of depression?

There could be many different things. We could be depressed over our physical condition--maybe we're not able to do what we once were or we're sickly. Could be an imbalance—if the chemicals in our brain are affecting us. Or perhaps we've had some financial reversals or a traumatic loss such as the loss of a loved one to death--or the loss of a job that we thought we'd have until we retired and one day they just let you go.

It could be that you were an innocent victim to abuse when you were younger, or even somewhat as an adult. It could even be that we're disappointed by our own shortcomings, our own sins. Maybe we've done something in the past and because of that we continue to feel that gnawing at us and causing us to feel depressed.

End of war?

U.N.
For a body committed by the preamble of its charter to eradicating war, strengthening human rights, advocating equality, and promoting “social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom,” this is significant. For critics of the UN, however, it is indicative of the organization’s ongoing inability to shift priorities in the wake of sudden-onset, large-scale crises.

Virus Found in Blood Supply

Scientists have found a new virus that can be transmitted by blood transfusions and other blood-based products.

It looks a little like the hepatitis C virus, which can cause permanent liver damage, and a little like the human pegivirus, which appears to be harmless, the team reports in the journal mBio.

They've named it human hepegivirus-1 (HHpgV-1).

"We have been able to find a new virus. It's clearly transmitted as a result of human (blood) transfusion," said infectious disease expert Dr. Ian Lipkin, who oversaw the study team at Columbia University.

Accomplished

From the recording what a GB representative said in respect to the  GB's achievement in line with Matt 24:14:  (this was not recent, it was already a few years ago. In  the Watchtower 1995 September 1st said that Matt 24:14 was already fulfilled. See below) We are right there....

"The faithful slave feels that they have fulfilled Matt. 24:14 “This good news has been preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness…” what is the next part of the text says after?  Yes “…the end will come.” Do you know that there are only 3 countries in the entire world that there are no witnesses today? Only 3 countries. They are Somalia, North Korea and Afghanistan. That doesn’t mean that the literature's are not in those countries, there are no witnesses there. And some of my friends wanted to know why and I will tell you why. Jehovah does not send in His people to any environment they will be killed. That is why there are no witnesses. Those 3 countries bear community responsibilities but the good news of the kingdom has been preached. Matt. 24, Luke 21, Mark 13 & Rev. 6, those scriptures are having its fulfillment, they’ve been fulfilled. So where are you this stream of Bible prophecy? What is the next Bible prophecy to be fulfilled? The next one, do you know?

Religion and Politics

Israel's former President Shimon Peres, Pope Francis, the creation of a "United Nations of Religions" proposed at a private audience. There is now "hundreds, perhaps thousands of terrorist organizations, pretending to kill in the name of God." Peres told the Italian newspaper "Famiglia Cristiana". The United Nations look at them without weapons and without religious convictions. An "agency of the United Religions, a UN of religions" would be "the best way to confront the terrorists."

Catholics leaving?

Half of U.S. adults raised Catholic have left the church at some point

Some older American Catholics might remember a time when people thought of the Catholic Church like a family: hard to ignore and even harder to leave. But a new Pew Research Center survey of U.S. Catholics shows that at least some of these perceptions may no longer be entirely true.

Indeed, about half (52%) of all U.S. adults who were raised Catholic have left the church at some point in their lives. A significant minority of them returned, but most (four-in-ten of all those raised Catholic) have not.

Myoelectric prostheses

The whole premise for the project has been that people living with paralysis or missing limbs will only be able to manipulate objects by controlling their robotic prostheses directly from their brain, and are able to sense what they are touching.

Double moon hoax

Will Mars and the moon will appear the same size at some point in 2015? What’s really amazing is the staying power of this 12-year-old hoax.

The famous double moon hoax appears to be gearing up again. We hear that the word spread on Facebook in July, 2015 – and is still spreading – that there would be a double moon. Will this hoax ever die? It’s now 12 years old. Still, clearly, not everyone knows it’s a hoax. Google searches have made this post the most popular on our site for the past week. An email must be circulating – somewhere, social media must be buzzing – with the suggestion that Mars will appear as large as a full moon in Earth’s sky. And that is just not true. Here’s a sample of what it typically says:

Watch Your Wi-Fi

As copied from an email sent to me by Betty...

Dear Betty, Have you ever used free Wi-Fi at an airport, hotel, or local coffee shop? In some cases, it may be better to stay away from free Wi-Fi and use your wireless network instead, because scammers can access your personal information and steal your identity with these three hacks: MAN-IN-THE-MIDDLE The hacker positions himself between you and your Wi-Fi connection point. So instead of talking directly with the hotspot, you're sending your information to the hacker, who then sends and receives data impersonating you. Every piece of information you're sending out on the Internet are all under the control of the hacker. EVIL TWIN A hacker sets up a Wi-Fi access point with the same name as a legitimate network you have connected to previously and compels your computer or phone to connect to it automatically without your consent. WAR DRIVING Using a laptop, smartphone or tablet, “war drivers” use commonly available software to troll neighborhoods to find open or poorly protected Wi-Fi networks. Using these tactics, scammers can access your personal and financial information and use it to steal your assets and your identity.

Actions for Peace

Over 325 Actions for Peace and Justice Across the US Next Week.

Starting this weekend, over 325 demonstrations, marches, vigils and other public events will be held all across the U.S., covering every state, as part of the second annual “Campaign Nonviolence” week of action. Tens of thousands of people will be gathering and taking to the streets to “connect the dots” and speak out against all the issues of violence, including poverty, war, racism, police brutality, gun violence, nuclear weapons and environmental destruction, and call for a new culture of peace and nonviolence as Dr. King envisioned.

Gonorrhea spreads

One of the most widespread sexually transmitted infections has become invincible to traditional treatments.

British sexual health doctors are reporting an outbreak of a highly drug-resistant gonorrhea strain first registered in Leeds in northern England.

Rare Supermoon Eclipse

The first "supermoon" lunar eclipse in more than three decades will grace Earth's skies this month, as will a partial solar eclipse that most of the world will miss.

The supermoon total lunar eclipse, which occurs on Sept. 27, features a full moon that looks significantly larger and brighter than usual. It will be the first supermoon eclipse since 1982, and the last until 2033, NASA officials said in a newly released video.

The total lunar eclipse will be visible to observers throughout the Americas, Europe, Africa, western Asia and the eastern Pacific Ocean region. [‪How Lunar Eclipses Work (Infographic)]

A partial solar eclipse will take place two weeks before this special supermoon, on Sept. 13, but the earlier event will be visible only to skywatchers in southern Africa (as well as penguins, leopard seals and the other wildlife of Antarctica).

Bubonic Plague Surfaces

Another case of the plague has occurred in the U.S., officials say — and this time it’s not out west.

A Michigan resident who recently returned home from Colorado has come down with bubonic plague, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services announced Monday. This is the first known report of a Michigan resident contracting the plague, according to the department.

Artificial Leaf Power

A Record-Breaking New Artificial Leaf Makes Power From Sun And Water

For some energy researchers, it's the holy grail: How can technology cheaply and sustainably recreate photosynthesis, nature's way of making fuel, which works way better at taking energy from the sun than anything we've been able to invent?

A new "artificial leaf" is close to being viable for use at home, say scientists from Monash University in Australia. Using cheap, readily available materials, solar power, and water, the system pumps up out hydrogen with more efficiency than anything that's gone before. That hydrogen can then fill up fuel cells.

Romans at the gate

The Roman Empire in the early 1st century CE was often regarded as the perfect empire. The outstanding military prowess of the Romans was used to expand the empire, and once the territories were acceptably pacified, Roman political power was installed from the capital of the empire to the local governments of the territories.

Perfectly balanced between a mixture of hard (military occupation and intervention to upkeep Roman law and instil Roman religion) and soft power (entertainment, technology, and trade), Roman rule was generally accepted and enjoyed almost everywhere the empire landed. Some subjects of Roman rule were happy to trade their religious freedom in favour of the cult of Caesar for the benefits of sanitation, for example.

Ducks Quack, Eagles Soar

No one can make you serve customers well.....that's because great service is a choice. Harvey Mackay, tells a wonderful story about a cab driver that proved this point.

He was waiting in line for a ride at the airport. When a cab pulled up, the first thing Harvey noticed was that the taxi was polished to a bright shine. Smartly dressed in a white shirt, black tie, and freshly pressed black slacks, the cab driver jumped out and rounded the car to open the back passenger door for Harvey.

He handed my friend a laminated card and said: 'I'm Wally, your driver. While I'm loading your bags in the trunk I'd like you to read my mission statement.'

Taken aback, Harvey read the card. It said: Wally's Mission Statement: To get my customers to their destination in the quickest, safest and cheapest way possible in a friendly environment.

This blew Harvey away. Especially when he noticed that the inside of the cab matched the outside. Spotlessly clean!

As he slid behind the wheel, Wally said, 'Would you like a cup of coffee? I have a thermos of regular and one of decaf.' My friend said jokingly, 'No, I'd prefer a soft drink.' Wally smiled and said, 'No problem I have a cooler up front with regular and Diet Coke, water and orange juice..' Almost stuttering, Harvey said, 'I'll take a Diet Coke.'

Blood Transfusion Scare

Across the press today we find warnings regarding Alzheimer's and surgical procedures.

If we are to understand it correctly there appears a definite connection between intrusive medical procedures and the possibility of contracting Alzheimer's.

Here are some of the quotes found:
