"Timbaland was making a beat, and I was in the vocal booth jamming," Furtado explains. "When I started dancing, he was like, 'Stop! You're offbeat! You're throwing me off! I can't make music when you're dancing like that!' I came to Miami with my British-Columbian hippie rave dance, but Timbaland made me learn how to shake my booty, how to dance on the beat."

Conspiracy of Science - Earth is in fact growing



Proponents of an expanding Earth hypothesis claim that the explanation for the position and movement of continents and the appearance of new crustal material at mid-ocean ridges is that Earth's volume is increasing. Modern scientific evidence does not support this idea, rather plate tectonics is almost universally accepted as correct. The small number of proponents of an expanding earth claim that the continents drifted away from each other because of further expansion at the rip-zones, where oceans currently lie. This contradicts the scientific consensus plate tectonics theory by stating that significant destructive plate boundaries do not exist.

The History of Monopoly

On January 5, 1904, Lizzie J. Magie, a Quaker woman from Virginia, received a patent for a board game. Lizzie Magie belonged to a tax movement led by Philadelphia-born Henry George; the movement supported the theory that the renting of land and real estate produced an unearned increase in land values that profited a few individuals (landlords) rather than the majority of the people (tenants). Henry George proposed a single federal tax based on land ownership believing a single tax would discourage speculation and encourage equal opportunity.

This movement was founded on May 1, 1776, in Ingolstadt (Upper Bavaria), by Jesuit-taught Adam Weishaupt (d. 1830),[1] who was the first lay professor of canon law at the University of Ingolstadt.[2] The movement was made up of freethinkers, as an offshoot of the Enlightenment,[3] which some contemporary writers like Seth Payson believed was a conspiracy to infiltrate and overthrow the governments of many European states.[4] Some writers, like Augustin Barruel and John Robison, even claimed that the Illuminati was behind the French revolution, a claim that Jean-Joseph Mounier dismissed in his book On the Influence Attributed to Philosophers, Free-Masons, and to the Illuminati on the Revolution of France.[5]

Disney's The Princess and The Frog



Well, this is a bit odd. Disney is releasing their upcoming hand drawn animated movie, The Princess and the Frog, in only New York and Los Angeles on November 25th, Thanksgiving week. Following that initial debut, they'll open it wide in theaters across the country on December 11th. While I could criticize this decision, it's actually very smart, for multiple reasons, and I think Disney will have a big hit on their hands, even though they don't know it. See, I think they're actually very worried about the success of The Princess and the Frog, because it is hand drawn animation and they think no one wants to see that.

Ode to Jordan Maxwell, David Icke and The Egg Man

It’s all in my head.
Echoes of lessons learned.
Like shape-shifters chase beings from the stars
And cultivate this planet from incubators lost over time.

Their children are inbred with frog-like fingers.
Nocturnal rage and the honey-comb mind of the traumatized,
Hidden behind the exodus of the holocaust,
Enslaved and programmed to kill.

They feast upon the blood of the chosen,
Forced to freeze in fear while emitting rare secretions.
-Something like a Skeksis
I practice forgiveness.

Sin is ancient and I don’t believe in it.
Unable sneak past the circle around the yin/yang,
All of life is purposeful and good.
Let us pray.

Open the mind of the ultimate consciousness,
By practicing patients, compassion and self-respect to achieve ascension,
We can set God free from this schizophrenic reality.

Like a kaleidoscope we demonstrate free will and are Him completely.
May peace be with you,
And love eternal.
