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.

Blind Melon: "I Wonder"

Without playing a single club or aligning themselves with any of L.A.’s myriad rock scenes, they landed a record deal almost immediately after forming. They managed to create a major label buzz around Hollywood on the strength of a four-song demo called The Goodfoot Workshop. These were pretty much their only four songs, but they succeeded in creating the illusion that they were a seasoned group with plenty of great material.

A Prayer For Light

I have an angry heart.
Forgive me Jesus,
I couldn’t save you from that massacre.

I am not a sadist.
You are my master.

Keep me safe from myself,
And all other beings as well.

We come to you with open arms,
As prophets,
Walking testimonies of time.

Collecting memories of pain,
We wait.

Set us free in your glory of salvation.

Since Gnostic means to know,
Give us the wisdom of your endless love.

-Amen

Jordan's King Abdullah II said in an American TV interview there is enough evidence available to suggest that the United States had engaged in torture

"Now is the time for the United States to lead," Abdullah said. He warned that time is running out to establish a viable independent Palestinian state alongside Israel. That is the goal all sides have embraced and the outline of a deal is clear, but it will take determination and a push from Washington to make it happen, Abdullah said in an address at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

Clinton stood her ground against Christopher Smith, a Republican lawmaker from New Jersey who strongly opposes abortion.

"When I think about the suffering that I have seen of women around the world, I've been in hospitals in Brazil where half the women were enthusiastically and joyfully greeting new babies and the other half were fighting for their lives against botched abortions," said Clinton.

"I've been in African countries where 12 and 13-year-old girls are bearing children. I have been in Asian countries where the denial of family planning consigns women to lives of oppression and hardship," she added.

What is Craniosacral Therapy?

A craniosacral therapy session involves the therapist placing their hands on the patient, which they say allows them to tune into what they call the craniosacral system.[1] By gently working with the spine, the skull and its cranial sutures, diaphragms, and fascia, the restrictions of nerve passages are said to be eased, the movement of cerebrospinal fluid through the spinal cord can be optimized, and misaligned bones are said to be restored to their proper position.

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.

Pharaohs and Israelites, plagues and miracles, splitting of the sea and drowning of an army, and Moses.

After much research--working with archaeologists, Egyptologists, geologists, and theologians--filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici concluded that the Exodus took place hundreds of years earlier than thought. With a new timetable, Jacobovici reexamined artifacts and discovered that the traditional consensus on the date was reached without reference to Judaic texts that record the oral traditions.
