Will Internet Marketing Work for Your Business?

Internet MarketingWill Internet Marketing Work for Your Business?

This is an extremely difficult question to answer because there are so many complex factors involved. Specifically the techniques you employ in your Internet marketing campaign as well as the execution of these techniques can determine whether or not Internet marketing will work for your business. Additionally, the likelihood of your target audience using the Internet and responding to your marketing efforts should also be considered into the equation. This article will outline the potential for success in an Internet marketing campaign.

Before making the decision to embark on an Internet marketing campaign you should carefully consider your target audience. The Internet is used widely around the world but whether or not members of your target audience are likely to utilize the Internet to research or purchase the products or services you sell is not guaranteed. This is significant because investing a great deal of time, effort and money into Internet marketing when your target audience is not likely to respond to these efforts is not worthwhile.

Conducting market research can do a great deal to help you determine whether or not you should invest in an Internet marketing campaign for your business. This step is very important because it will give you a good indication of whether or not you should even begin marketing your business on the Internet. Hiring a firm specializing in market research is recommended because they can conduct this research quickly and efficiently and will likely gain a great deal of valuable information as a result of their research efforts. If they determine your business can benefit from an Internet marketing campaign, it is time to start thinking about how you want to advertise your business online.

Again, seeking the help of professionals can be an extremely worthwhile investment. If you are not well versed in the industry of Internet marketing, hiring a firm with a great deal of expertise in this industry can be very helpful. They can assist you by consulting with you to determine which marketing strategies will be most effective, designing advertisements for your campaign, helping you to orchestrate your Internet marketing campaign and evaluating the results of marketing efforts to determine which strategies are working and which are not.

The potential for success with an Internet marketing campaign is virtually limitless. The success you enjoy is only limited by your ability to promote your products and services and execute effective marketing strategies. Some of the marketing strategies you may wish to employ may include optimizing your website for relevant search terms, placing links to your website judiciously on the Internet, writing and publishing e-newsletters and utilizing affiliates to promote your website.

Search engine optimization (SEO) is one of the most important aspects of any Internet marketing campaign. SEO is so important because it dictates the ranking of your website on popular search engines. Internet users value these results and are not likely to seek out websites which do not rank well with search engines. Conversely, high ranking websites can enjoy a great deal of increased website traffic as a result of these rankings.

Inbound links to your website are also important in Internet marketing. Inbound links are links on other websites which direct users to your website. These links are important in an Internet marketing campaign. First of all many search engines factor inbound links into their ranking algorithms which means inbound links can result in higher search engines rankings. Also, these links can be used directly by website users to access your website. This means you can gain traffic directly from these links.

Another way to enjoy a successful Internet marketing campaign is to orchestrate an affiliate marketing campaign. Affiliates are essentially website owners who place a banner ad on their website to direct traffic to your website. Typically, affiliates are only compensated when the advertisement on their website produces a desired effect such as enticing the users to click through the advertisement, resulting in a sale or resulting in another action such as filling out a survey or registering with your website. Affiliate marketing can not only be highly effective but it is also cost effective because you only pay the affiliates when they produce results.

So why not improve your Business prospects and reach out even further at the same time by using Internet Marketing?

Veretekk invented Automated Marketing (in 1996), later to become known as Inbound Marketing (MarketHive). Veretekk’s traffic portal offers, auto responders, Broadcasting technology (The Hammer), Conference rooms and sales funnel process became the foundation that today is known as Inbound Marketing.

WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW

But let us digress some. Before the Internet; advertising and marketing were for the most part driven by Outbound Marketing:


Outbound marketing is buying attention, cold- calling,
Direct paper mail, radio, TV, sales flyers, spam,
telemarketing and other forms of traditional advertising.

 

 

 

Inbound marketing is the most effective marketing method for doing business online. Inbound marketing focuses on creating quality content that pulls people toward your company and product, where they naturally want to be. By aligning the content you publish with your customer’s interests, you naturally attract inbound traffic that you can then convert, close, and delight over time.

 

 


Simply concept really, execution is the challenge. (Just ask a few of your friends how often they blog) vs posting to Facebook newsfeeds, Skyping or texting back and forth.  With a little understanding, some instruction and determination, any entrepreneurial motivated person can make a success with the right tools.

This is why it is important to know your “WHY” as that is what will drive your market base. What you love to do will attract others that share the same passion. And that is the “secret”.

Sharing is caring and inbound is about creating and sharing content with the world. By creating content specifically designed to appeal to your dream customers, inbound attracts qualified prospects to your business and keeps them coming back for more.

By publishing the right content in the right place at the right time, your marketing becomes relevant and helpful to your customers, not interruptive. Now that’s marketing people can love.

Major themes:

Create targeted content that answers prospects' and customers' basic questions and needs, then share that content far and wide.  (Broadcasting)

Promoters don’t just materialize out of thin air: they start off as strangers, visitors, contacts, and customers. Specific marketing actions and tools help to transform those strangers into promoters. (Share the revenue “AFFILIATE”)

Tailor your content to the wants and needs of the people who are viewing it. As you learn more about your leads over time, you can better personalize your messages to their specific needs. (Build your sphere of influence)

Inbound marketing is multi-channel by nature because it approaches people where they are, in the channel where they want to interact with you. (Social Network connections)

Content creation, publishing and analytics tools all work together like a well-oiled machine – allowing you to focus on publishing the right content in the right place at the right time. (Tracking and measuring traffic, comments, responsive interaction)

The Four Marketing Actions

Attract

We don’t want just any traffic to our site, we want the right traffic. We want the people who are most likely to become leads, and, ultimately, happy customers. Who are the “right” people? Our ideal customers, also known as our buyer personas. Buyer personas are holistic ideals of what your customers are really like, inside and out. Personas encompass the goals, challenges, pain points, common objections to products and services, as well as personal and demographic information shared among all members of that particular customer type. Your personas are the people around whom your whole business is built.

Some of the most important tools to attract the right users to your site are:

Blogging– Inbound marketing starts with blogging. A blog is the single best way to attract new visitors to your website. In order to get found by the right prospective customers, you must create educational content that speaks to them and answers their questions.

SEO– Your customers begin their buying process online, usually by using a search engine to find something they have questions about. So, you need to make sure you’re appearing prominently when and where they search. To do that, you need to carefully, analytically pick keywords, optimize your pages, create content, and build links around the terms your ideal buyers are searching for.

Pages– Your website pages are your digital storefront. So put your best face forward! Optimize your website to appeal to your ideal buyers and transform your website into a beacon of helpful content to entice the right strangers to visit your pages.

Social Publishing– Successful inbound strategies are all about remarkable content – and social publishing allows you to share that valuable information on the social web, engage with your prospects, and put a human face on your brand. Interact on the networks where your ideal buyers spend their time.

Convert

Once you’ve attracted website visitors, the next step is to convert those visitors into leads by gathering their contact information. At the very least, you’ll need their email addresses. Contact information is the most valuable currency there is to the online marketer. So in order for your visitors to offer up that currency willingly, you need to offer them something in return! That “payment” comes in the form of content, like eBooks, whitepapers, or tip sheets – whatever information would be interesting and valuable to each of your personas.

Some of the most important tools in converting visitors to leads include:

Forms- In order for visitors to become leads, they must fill out a form and submit their information. Optimize your form to make this step of the conversion process as easy as possible.

Calls-to-action are buttons or links that encourage your visitors to take action, like “Download a Whitepaper” or “Attend a Webinar.” If you don’t have enough calls-to-action or your calls-to-action aren’t enticing enough, you won’t generate leads.

Landing Pages– When a website visitor clicks on a call-to-action, they should then be sent to a landing page. A landing page is where the offer in the call-to-action is fulfilled, and where the prospect submits information that your sales team can use to begin a conversation with them. When website visitors fill out a form on a landing page for the first time, that visitor becomes a contact.

Contacts– Keep track of the leads you're converting in a centralized marketing database. Having all your data in one place helps you make sense out of every interaction you’ve had with your contacts – be it through email, a landing page, social media, or otherwise – and how to optimize your future interactions to more effectively attract, convert, close, and delight your buyer personas.

Close

You’re on the right track. You’ve attracted the right visitors and converted the right leads, but now you need to transform those leads into customers. How can you most effectively accomplish this feat? Certain marketing tools can be used at this stage to make sure you’re closing the right leads at the right times.

Closing tools include:

CRM– Keep track of the details about all the contacts, companies, and deals in your pipeline, and easily get in touch with the right prospects at the right time. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems facilitate sales by making sure you have the right information at your fingertips to better engage with prospects across every channel.

Closed-loop Reporting– How do you know which marketing efforts are bringing in the best leads? Is your sales system effectively closing those best leads into customers? Integration with your CRM system allows you to analyze just how well your marketing and sales teams are playing together.

Email– What do you do if a visitor clicks on your call-to-action, fills out a landing page, or downloads your whitepaper, but still isn’t ready to become a customer? A series of emails focused on useful, relevant content can build trust with a prospect and help them become more ready to buy.

Marketing Automation– This process involves creating email marketing and lead nurturing tailored to the needs and lifecycle stage of each lead. For example, if a visitor downloaded a whitepaper on a certain topic from you in the past, you might want to send that lead a series of related emails. But if they follow you on Twitter and visited certain pages on your website, you might want to change the messaging to reflect those different interests.

Delight

The Inbound way is all about providing remarkable content to our users, whether they be visitors, leads, or existing customers. Just because someone has already written you a check doesn’t mean you can forget about them! Inbound companies continue to engage with, delight, and (hopefully) upsell their current customer base into happy promoters of the organizations and products they love.

Tools used to delight customers include:

Surveys– The best way to figure out what your users want is by asking them. Use feedback and surveys to ensure you’re providing customers with what they’re looking for.

Smart Calls-to-Action– These present different users with offers that change based on buyer persona and lifecycle stage.

Smart Text– Provide your existing customers with remarkable content tailored to their interests and challenges. Help them achieve their own goals, as well as introduce new products and features that might be of interest to them.

Social Monitoring- Keep track of the social conversations that matter to you most. Listen out for your customers’ questions, comments, likes, and dislikes – and reach out to them with relevant content.

The New Methodology

The Inbound Methodology covers each and every step taken, tool used, and lifecycle stage traveled through on the road from stranger to customer. It empowers marketers to attract visitors, convert leads, close customers, and delight promoters. The new methodology acknowledges that inbound marketing doesn’t just happen, you do it. And you do it using tools and applications that help you create and deliver content that will appeal to precisely the right people (your buyer personas) in the right places (channels) at just the right times (lifecycle stages).

An Entrepreneurial Social Network integrated with an advanced Inbound Marketing platform is genius on steroids. Sharing up to 50% of the potential revenue with you is very generous and the potential of this combination is atomic!

What Carly Fiorina Endorsing Ted Cruz Really Means

What Carly Fiorina Endorsing Ted Cruz Really Means

Trying to explain the significance of the last few days, in relationship to the Ted Cruz candidacy, requires the intellectually honest observer to recognize and/or accept the increasingly likely probability: we have been facing a manufactured “false dilemma” longer than most may be willing to accept.

“False Dilemma” – the fallacy of false choice, or the fallacy of the false alternative, is a type of informal fallacy involving a situation in which only limited alternatives are considered, when in fact there is at least one additional option.

In essence, presidential candidate Ted Cruz has been presented, by those who gain leverage in the presentation, as an option – to the previous “establishment candidates“.

Under this assumption, the intent of the option (Cruz) is to block the observer (electorate / us) from considering any additional alternative which remains outside the control of the presenting entity (the DC power brokers, GOPe, Wall Street donor class).

In order to recognize the fallacy of false choice, the audience must engage the new  information while reevaluating their prior assumption, positions and options.

That said, Team Cruz has shown new evidence of being much further aligned with the GOPe than most political observers, and high-information voters, might be willing to accept.

Here’s why:

Adding the entire financial team of Jeb Bush which includes: Paul Dickerson of Houston, TX, Boyden Gray of Washington, DC, Charles Foster of Houston, TX, Reginald J. Brown of Washington, DC, Paula and Jim Henry of Midland, TX, and Nancy and Randy Best of Dallas, TX. shows that Ted Cruz is much further in alignment with the Bush clan than most previously recognized. 

In addition, by Ted Cruz adding Neil Bush  Cruz is signifying an ideological alignment that is 180° divergent than most of the supporters of Ted Cruz would be aware of.  These alignments point to a direct acceptance that much of the story-line behind Cruz’s candidacy was false.

As a direct consequence, the fallacy of false choice within the option of Ted Cruz from the outset gains sunlight.

However, this new reality is challenging for many people to accept.  To those who cannot bring themselves to accept this paradigm shift, further evidence surfaces today with the endorsement of consummate insider, Carly Fiorina, who said:

“Last Tuesday we had a primary, and I walked into the ballot box,” [Fiorina] told a crowd of Cruz supporters. “I saw my name on the ballot, and it was kind of a thrill, but I checked the box for Ted Cruz.” (link)

That “last Tuesday” reference highlights Fiorina’s home residence (as we previously shared) in Virginia, not California as many people mistakenly think.   Fiorina has been the consummate “inside the beltway” politico, even though she was never in an elected position as a politician.

Fiorina worked for the John McCain campaign in 2008 as a surrogate.  She again worked in 2012 as an official campaign spokesperson for Mitt Romney.  Indeed, in the beginning of her own presidential bid last year, Carly Fiorina stated she was urged to run in 2016 due to a conversation with Mitt Romney.

So, we re-engage the intellectual honesty with a reminder of Carly Fiorina, and now find ourselves answering a nagging previous question.

Why did the Wall Street funders of the Ted Cruz campaign fund the origin of the Carly Fiorina campaign in 2015?

fiorina 1

$500,000 transferred from KtP1 (Keep The Promise) which is Ted Cruz’s Super-PAC, to CfA (Carly for America) Ms. Fiorina’s Super-PAC, in June of 2015.

What clarifies now, with this new information, is how the fallacy of false choice was being presented to us by the Wall Street financial team, the Globalists, last year.  Remember, even the FEC wanted know what they were doing (LINK).

Cutting through the intent here and getting to the substance of truth is really not too difficult, but you won’t find many outlets (new media or old) willing to go there. However, as you are aware for us the Truth Has No Agenda, and Sunlight Is The Best Disinfectant.

We begin by watching this video of Carly Fiorina appearing on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and the discussion of a Muslim candidate eligible as U.S. President:


Just sticking with raw data, and trying to avoid injecting opinion, now consider this:

CARLY FIORINA – “VISION 2010″: U.S. & ARAB ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES – U.S.-ARAB ECONOMIC FORUM – SEPTEMBER 29, 2003, DETROIT, MICHIGAN:

Thank you for those nice words, Mr. Chairman.

It’s an honor for me to be here this morning. This is the perfect place to host a meeting on the future of the Middle East. The leadership of Arab-Americans in this community – and in the state of Michigan – has been nothing short of dazzling, and I want to thank you for hosting us here this week.

A great deal of time will be spent at the conference this week focusing on the problems of the Arab world. I want to kick things off here today instead by asking you to imagine the possibilities…to imagine what the Gulf region would be like if Arab countries were at the forefront of the global economy…to imagine what the world would be like if Arab nations were the world’s leading force for enlightenment and inclusion…to imagine what the future would be like for a Middle East rooted not in conflict, but anchored in partnership.

Two years ago, less than two weeks after the tragedy of September 11th, I gave a speech in Minnesota in which I said it didn’t take much to imagine that kind of world because we have seen that world before. All it takes is for us to think back to another time, to a civilization that was once considered the greatest in the world.

It was a civilization that was able to create a continental super-state that stretched from ocean to ocean, and from northern climes to tropics and deserts. Within its dominion lived hundreds of millions of people, of different creeds and ethnic origins. One of its languages became the universal language of the world, the bridge between the peoples of a hundred lands.

And this civilization was driven more than anything, by invention. Its writers created thousands of stories. Its poets wrote of love, when others before them were too steeped in fear to think of such things. When other nations were afraid of ideas, this civilization thrived on them, and kept them alive.

While modern Western civilization shares many of these traits, as I said to the audience that day in Minnesota, the civilization I’m talking about, of course, was the Islamic world from the year 800 to 1600, which included the Ottoman Empire and the courts of Baghdad, Damascus and Cairo, and enlightened rulers like Suleiman the Magnificent – rulers who challenged our notions of self and truth; who contributed to our notions of tolerance and civic leadership; whose leadership led to 800 years of invention and prosperity.

As we meet to think about the civilization that exists on that same land today, I ask you to imagine for a moment what a leader like Suleiman would say if he could somehow be here today, and see what the world has become.

I think he would be pleased at how much the world has learned from the example of the open, cooperative society that enlightened the world all those years ago. The Islamic example has helped create a world where democracy and transparency and rule of law are empowering people and taking them to new heights. (read more)

Please read the entire speech and pay close attention to the closing paragraphs.

What you will note is an almost eerie similarity to current Secretary of State John Kerry vis-a-vis the “Jobs for Jihad” program he, and his globalist co-horts, have been advocating for the past three years.

Read everything written by Fiorina and then reference/remember the words used by State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf – they are almost identical.

carly megyn

Next example – look at the following reception by Professor Al-Hassani, the Chairman of FSTC, at the conference “La Deuda Olvidada de Occidente he is responding to the speech of Carly Fiorina and the intended audience in the Mid-East:

[…] In this presentation focus will be on the other manner by which history is distorted: that is, the suppression of centuries of contribution to modern civilisation by the Muslim world. This negligence is apparent in academia, in the media and in the educational curriculum and associated history books, especially those aimed at the general public. The focus on this issue is to alert communities as to the particular significance of the Muslim civilisation and its historical role in giving birth to much of modern science and technology.

The following words by a famous lady well describes this situation and the debt that world history owes to the civilisation created by Muslims. They were pronounced by Mrs. Carleton S. Fiorina, chairman, president, and CEO of Hewlett-Packard Company (1999-2005) in a discourse on 29 September 2003:

[…] When other nations were afraid of ideas, this civilization thrived on them, and kept them alive.

When censors threatened to wipe out knowledge from past civilizations, this civilization kept the knowledge alive, and passed it on to others. While modern Western civilization shares many of these traits, the civilization I’m talking about was the Islamic world from the year 800 to 1600, which included the Ottoman Empire and the courts of Baghdad, Damascus and Cairo, and enlightened rulers like Suleiman the Magnificent.

Although we are often unaware of our indebtedness to this other civilization, its gifts are very much a part of our heritage. (read more)

Professor Al-Hassani was rejoicing that Carly Fiorina was asserting without Islam there would be no U.S.A., no America, no exceptionalism. This is the exact approach of the U.S. State Department, Charles Rivkin Project, we originally exposed in 2012.

The Rivkin Project was/is a U.S. State Department program with a specific goal to remove national pride and identity in favor of a more global worldview of a collective society, a “multi-cultural” society. Again, these are not interpretations of her words, these are Fiorinas’ own words.

And yes, there are those who are now beginning to connect the dots to President Obama’s first foreign policy speech and travel. Where was it delivered? Cairo Egypt.

Does it make sense now how Fiorina came to be in contact with all those “world leaders” she brags about meeting?

If you need to finally stamp out any reservations or doubt you might have about this agenda; consider Carly Fiorina is also closely linked to the Clinton Global Initiative – SEE HERE ( <—scroll down the page) – providing leadership and mentorship within the Bill and Hillary CGI.

Troubled? You should be. Her globalist ideology is thinly veiled, and in my opinion what has unnerved many of the electorate who did not buy what she was selling.  Despite claims to the contrary, the U.S. voter is intelligent and have an innate sense when they are being misled:

♦ Carly Fiorina on Immigration: Pass the DREAM Act. For other undocumented immigrants, a direct path to citizenship is unfair. While running for the U.S. Senate in California in 2010, Fiorina said she supports the DREAM Act, which would give legal status to people who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children.

♦ Carly Fiorina on Climate change: It is real and man made. But government has limited ability to address it. Speaking in New Hampshire in February, Fiorina said there is scientific consensus that climate change is real and caused by humans.

♦ Carly Fiorina on Education: Supports Common Core – Set national standards but give local districts maximum control. No Child Left Behind was positive. In a position paper while running for the U.S. Senate in California, Fiorina strongly advocated for metric-based accountability in schools. She praised No Child Left Behind as setting high standards and Race to the Top for using “internationally bench-marked” measures.

Carly Fiorina never hired after HP Job: […] Here are the facts: In the five years that Fiorina was at Hewlett-Packard, the company lost over half its value. It’s true that many tech companies had trouble during this period of the Internet bubble collapse, some falling in value as much as 27 percent; but HP under Fiorina fell 55 percent. During those years, stocks in companies like Apple and Dell rose. Google went public, and Facebook was launched. The S&P 500 yardstick on major U.S. firms showed only a 7 percent drop. Plenty good was happening in U.S. industry and in technology.

It was Fiorina’s failed leadership that brought her company down. After an unsuccessful attempt to catch up to IBM’s growth in IT services by buying PricewaterhouseCooper’s consulting business (PwC, ironically, ended up going to IBM instead), she abruptly abandoned the strategic goal of expanding IT services and consulting and moved into heavy metal.

At a time that devices had become a low margin commodity business, Fiorina bought for $25 billion the dying Compaq computer company, which was composed of other failed businesses. Unsurprisingly, the Compaq deal never generated the profits Fiorina hoped for, and HP’s stock price fell by half. The only stock pop under Fiorina’s reign was the 7 percent jump the moment she was fired following a unanimous board vote. After the firing, HP shuttered or sold virtually all Fiorina had bought. (read more)

Against this substantive backdrop, and considering all possible alternative explanations, a reasonable person can only conclude Ted Cruz was a “false choice” all along.

carly fiorina 2Romney side

Just a Reminder, this is an insurgency. – The modern enemy of Wall Street is Main Street vulgarians. The enemy of the RNC/GOPe is not Democrats, it’s Grassroots Conservatives, more vulgarians.

The Republican Party, and the Republican media apparatus, view us as their enemy. We are the enemy they need to protect themselves from:

In 2014, the RNC approved selection rules that govern how each state’s delegates are portioned out from the primaries. Under one of the changes, states holding their primaries between March 1 and March 14 will have their delegates doled out proportionately with election results, a change that will likely stymie a movement candidate.

States that have primaries on or after March 15 will be winner-take-all states.

That’s important because another RNC rule change requires that a candidate must win a majority of delegates in eight or more states before his or her name may be presented for nomination at the 2016 Republican National Convention.

With 18 GOP presidential candidates, for now, it will be that much harder for any candidate to win a majority in any state, let alone eight. (Article July 2015)

GOP-versus-Tea-Party

Now, ask yourself, why would the RNC want to “stymie a movement candidate“? Who exactly does that benefit? Obviously, the “non-movement” candidate, ie “the turtle“.

Isn’t the entire reason for campaigning in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina etc. to make a movement/momentum?

In addition Rule #40 changed in 2014 from previously five needed state wins, to a newer threshold of eight (8):

Officially, it’s Rule 40 in the RNC handbook and it states that any candidate for president “shall demonstrate the support of a majority of the delegates from each of eight (8) or more states” before their name is presented for nomination at the national convention. (article March 2014)

Again, ask yourself who does this benefit? A candidate can win seven states outright, and still not have their name presented for nomination?

How Neil Bush Succeeded in Business Without Really Trying

How Neil Bush Succeeded in Business Without Really Trying

Now, that ain’t workin’
That’s the way you do it
Get money for nothin’
And your chicks for free.

— Dire Straits, “Money for Nothing”

His mother still calls him Neilsie. He refers to his dad, the former president, as Gampy. Neil Bush may be the black sheep of the Bush family, but his relatives have never let him down. Whenever he’s been mired in financial, legal or marital imbroglios, someone in the Bush family entourage has always reached out a helping hand and often that hand has slipped Neil a fat check.

Neil Bush, the fourth child of George and Barbara, was long thought to be the rising star of the family. He had the looks, the convivial demeanor, middle-of-the-road politics and, despite suffering from a severe case of dyslexia that made him the laughing stock of St. Albans (the stuffy DC prep school that groomed Al Gore) the brainpower. At least he seemed brighter than Jeb or George Jr. And, most important of all, he was the favorite son of Barbara Bush, the Agrippina of American politics.

All those lofty political aspirations came to a fatal crash in the fall of 1988, at the precise moment his father was poised to ascend to the presidency, when the Silverado Savings and Loan went belly up with Neil in the driver’s seat.

In these days of multi-billion dollar financial crimes by the likes of Enron, Tyco and WorldCom, the failure of a relatively small Colorado thrift may not seem like much. But Silverado came to symbolize the entire savings and loan debacle, which ended up costing the government more than $150 billion in bail out money. Many of these companies exploited the newly deregulated financial markets to lavish unsecured loans to company insiders or political favorites and rewarded company officers and directors with ostentatious salaries and benefits. When the thrifts collapsed, the directors and executives walked away unscathed, while small investors and account-holders were left out in the cold. Appropriately, the looting of the savings and loans hit Texas harder than most other states.

At the time, Neil Bush claimed that he was being made a political scapegoat for Silverado’s troubles. He said he was only a bit player in the S&L with no real decision making power, a mere figurehead and little more. Of course, there was some truth to this. But Neil Bush was not an entirely passive director. Indeed, he used his position as director to steer unsecured loans to his business partners, including at least one project, a scheme to drill for oil in Argentina, in which he had a direct financial stake.

The US Office of Thrift Supervision, which scrutinized the implosion of Silverado, determined that Bush had engaged in numerous “breaches of his fiduciary duties involving multiple conflicts of interest.” A couple of years later, Bush and his cohorts in Silverado settled a $200 million civil suit brought by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for $49.5 million dollars. The FDIC had charged the executives and directors of Silverado with gross negligence. Bush forked out $50,000 of his own cash for his part of the settlement, with most of the money coming from insurance companies.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. Bush had moved to Denver in 1980 with his new bride, Sharon. He was meant to set up a base of political operations in the Rocky Mountain state, with his eyes on the governor’s mansion or a senate seat. But first there was a fortune to be made.

In 1983, Neil started an oil company, naturally, called JNB Exploration. The seed money for the opeation came in the amount of $150,000 from a Colorado real estate mogul named Bill Walters, the self-proclaimed Donald Trump of Denver. Another early investor in JNB was Walter’s friend Ken Goode, another real estate baron, who arranged $1.75 in million credit for Bush’s company from a bank controlled by Walters. For his part, Neil Bush kicked in $100 to the JNB Exploration kitty.

It wasn’t long before JNB began to list. A bail out was arranged with money coming from Silverado Savings and Loan, where Bush now served as a director.

Meanwhile, Bush continued to receive favors from Ken Goode. In the mid-1980s, Goode gave Bush $100,000 in investment funds, chips to play with in the stock market. Bush ended up losing all the money, but never paid a cent back to Goode.

Bush did, however, steer millions in Silverado loans Goode’s way. In 1986, Bush prevailed upon the Silverado board to approve more than $34 million in loans and credit to Walters and Goode, unsecured by anything other than Bush’s word.

Neil also urged the board to loan another of Goode’s companies, Goode International, $900,000 to finance an oil drilling operation in Argentina. In his pliant letter to the board, Neil conveniently elided the fact that he was a silent partner in this deal. Indeed, the Argentina oil scheme was his idea, predicated on familial ties to the corrupt of junta of generals then clutching the country in a murderous grip. Silverado was a pyramid scheme of financial self-dealing.

After Silverado crashed, Neil briefly became the poster boy for the S&L crisis. He was mercilessly mocked by the great Texas populist Henry Gonzales, during his hearings on the S&L scandal. Neil Bush’s political ambitions were mortally punctured, but his business career was just starting to take off. After all, his father was now president and there was a global network of connections to exploit.

In 1989, a few months after the expiration of Silverado, Neil was offered the chance to run another company that had been created just for him, Apex Energy. The $2.3 million in start up funds came courtesy of Bush family confident Louis Marx, heir to the Marx toy fortune. Bush pulled down $150,000 a year as CEO. Within two years, Apex Energy took a nosedive into bankruptcy.

But Neil Bush moved on, this time to TransMedia Communications, a cable TV venture headed by Bill Daniel, a longtime funder of Neil’s father’s political campaigns, who had been lobbying furiously for the deregulation of the telecommunications industry. For his services, Neil was remunerated to the tune of $60,000 per year, even though TransMedia’s president, Dick Barnes, later admitted that the younger Bush knew nothing about the cable business.

It was around this time that Neil struck up a friendship with Nigal Fares, son of Issam Fares, then deputy Prime Minister of Lebanon and another longtime friend of the Bush family. Fares hired Neil to negotiate global deals involving the sale of covers for oil storage tankers. This partnership inaugurated Neil’s lucrative ventures in the Middle East, leading to fruitful relationships with oil sheiks from Qatar to Dubai, Kuwait to Saudi Arabia.

But Neil didn’t just dabble in oil. He also looked for opportunities to cash in on the new opportunities in the booming markets of Asia. In 1994, he started a company called InterLink with Tom Bridewater, a Utah tycoon and rightwing politician. The plan called for Neil to act as an intermediary to help grease deals between US and Asian companies. According to his recent divorce settlement, Neil earned from $180,000 to more than a $1 million a year from InterLink alone. In fact, it is alleged that Neil was paid $1 million to arrange a private meeting in New York City with Taiwan’s president Chen Shui-bian. The charge was leveled by James Soong, leader of Taiwan’s opposition party. Bush admitted to meeting Chen, but denied that he received any money from the Taiwanese leader. Meetings between officials of the US and Taiwanese governments have been prohibited since 1979, when the US normalized relations with Beijing.

The windfalls kept coming his way. On July 19, 1999, Neil experienced one of his greatest triumphs. He made $171,000 in a single day by buying and selling shares of the Kopin Corporation, a display panel company, which on that very afternoon announced a surprise deal with Japanese electronics giant, JVC, causing the stock to soar. While Neil denies profiting from any insider knowledge, the exquisitely timed transaction has all the hallmarks of a Martha Stewart-style deal in reverse. Instead of stemming losses, Neil Bush made a quick killing. Kopin had been one of Interlink’s early clients and Neil had recently arranged a deal where Telecom Holdings, a Hong Kong company, invested $27 million in Kopin. As a reward, Neil received stock options in the newly beefed up firm. It was merely a coincidence, Neil told the Associated Press earlier this year, that he exercised those options on that July morning and sold them later in the same afternoon, following the momentous JVC deal. Just another fortuitous coincidence.

Neil Bush’s escapades across Asia came to the attention of the Grace Semiconductor Management Company, which recruited Bush onto its board of directors. Despite the fact that Neil admitted he knows nothing about semiconductors, the Chinese company recompensed Bush with $2 million in stock and $10,000 per board meeting. Grace is controlled by Taiwanese tycoon Winston Wong and Jiang Mianheng, son of Jiang Zemin, former president of China.

Another of Neil’s rich friends is Jamal Daniel, a Syrian-American multimillionaire. When Neil and Sharon griped that their family didn’t get to spend very much time in Kennebunkport, Daniel shelled out $380,000 to buy them a cottage next to the Bush compound.

Jamal Daniel also put Bush on retainer for his Crest Investment firm, paying him $60,000 a year to help broker deals in the Middle East. One of Daniel’s most recent ventures is New Bridge Strategies, a kind of financial influence peddling outfit whose main endeavor these days is to help companies win contracts for the reconstruction of Iraq. What one brother destroys, another rebuilds.

In May of 2002, Neil Bush found himself alone in his hotel room in Dubai, where he was trying to secure financing for his new company Ignite! Learning, an educational software company geared to exploit his brother’s No Child Left Behind education strategy. Neil sat before his laptop computer and pounded out a long email to his wife of 23 years, informing her that he wanted a divorce. Oddly, given his track record financial coups, Neil’s ungentlemanly missive wallows in concerns about the family’s frail bank account.

“Your comments at our pool-side dinner with the kids that you and I should race to see who could make a million dollars faster, your belief expressed in different ways that I have not made enough money, your belief that it was easy to make money, and that Jamal Daniel’s plotting or Dad’s influence will be the magic answer to our financial woes all cause me consternation and reflect the bitterness and anger that has come from the loneliness you described Friday,” Neil wrote. “It is very clear that we are failing to meet each other’s core needs. We’re almost out of money and I’ve lost my patience for being compared to my brothers, for being put down for my inability to make money, and tired of not being loved. I’m sure you have felt abandoned and a deep sense of loneliness.”

Of course, in his e-confessional Neil Bush didn’t feel compelled to come clean about the sexcapades with the Asian hookers or reveal the fact that he’d fallen in love with Maria Anderson, the wife of Houston oil baron, Robert Andrews, a woman Sharon Bush would later denounce in public as “Neil’s Mexican whore.”

At the very moment Neil hit the send button on this brutal adieu, he was penning Maria breathlessly written love letters, pining for the time when they would be both be freed from the shackles of their marriages.

“My heart is breaking with solitude,” Neil wrote his lover. “I can’t wait to be free to dedicate all of my passion to love you. I hurt to have you in my arms, to make love with you and be a part of your life.” Yet another testimonial to Bush family values.

According to Neil, the two met in 2001 when Maria was working as a volunteer in Barbara Bush’s office, but things didn’t start to get amorous between them until January of 2002 when they found themselves together at a Houston fundraiser for Jeb Bush. A few weeks later Neil showed up at the Andrews’s $4 million mansion, known to the neighbors as Swankienda. He came on a mission to raise money for his new project, Ignite! Robert Andrews was an oil tycoon who had made his millions largely through a fruitful alliance with one of Mexico’s most notorious moguls, Carlos Slim Helu, the billionaire who controls the Grupo Carso conglomerate that includes TelMex.

That spring day, Neil walked away with $100,000 from Robert Andrews for his company and a new companion. As his mother said, Neil’s quite the smooth talker. A few weeks later, Maria and Neil absconded to Mexico together, ostensibly to search out new investors for Ignite! They returned with a lucrative production deal courtesy of Slim Helu and a pledge to seek divorces from their respective spouses. Neil soon fired off his parting email to Sharon and, upon returning to Texas from Dubai, moved into a Houston apartment owned by his Syrian business partner, Nijad Fares. In a harmonious display of their new fidelity, Neil and Maria filed for divorce on the same day, August 26, 2002.

When Sharon Bush learned of the affair with Maria Andrews, she launched a pre-emptive battery that would have impressed the Iraq war planners. First, she announced plans to write a tell all book about the Bush family, hinting darkly about revealing the truth of the Silverado scandal and George W. Bush’s boozing and carousing. Then she let slip the fact that she had been spilling family secrets to Kitty Kelly, who was racing to complete her scathing exposé of the Bush clan, The Family,  on the eve of the 2004 elections.

Later Sharon turned her sights on her rival, the vivacious Maria Andrews. She infamously confronted the couple at a Houston smoothie shop where Maria and Neil were dining together and called her Neil’s “Mexican whore.” Then she made allegations that Neil and Maria had been sleeping together for several years and that Maria’s youngest child had not fathered by Robert Andrews but by Neil. Andrews struck back with an $850,000 libel suit, but Sharon won the first round when a Texas judge approved her demand for DNA samples from Andrews and the child. And so it goes.

The Neil v. Sharon Bush divorce papers provide the most titillating bedtable reading since the footnotes of the Starr Report. For example, the divorce depositions detail Neil’s dalliances with prostitutes in Asia. While Neil was doing Interlink business in Thailand and Hong Kong, he enjoyed the exotic experience of hearing an urgent knocking on his hotel room door. Upon opening the door, Neil was confronted by a beautiful young woman who said she wanted to have sex with him. On at least three difference occasions, Neil accepted the hospitality of his hosts. He admitted to the sexual encounters in his bizarre deposition during his divorce proceedings. The deposition was released earlier this year. Here’s a sample of the back and forth between Bush and his wife’s lawyer:

Marshall Davis Brown (lawyer for Sharon Bush): Mr. Bush, you have to admit that it’s a pretty remarkable thing for a man to just go to a hotel room door and open it and have a woman standing there and have sex with her.

Neil Bush: It was very unusual.

Marshall Davis Brown: Were these prostitutes?

Neil Bush: I don’t…I don’t know.

Neil’s lawyer, John Spalding, brusquely counterattacked by charging that Sharon Bush tried to manipulate her husband through the use of voodoo spells. Spalding asserted that Sharon clipped strands of Neil’s hair and wove them into a bizarre doll that she hid under his bed.

Sharon tartly dismissed such allegations has lawyerly hokum. She admitted to collecting strands of Neil’s hair, but not for the purpose of practicing the dark arts of Haiti. Instead, Sharon confessed that she wanted to have Neil’s hair tested for the presence of cocaine. “He was looking thin and acting weird,” Sharon said. Apparently, a taste for fine powder runs deep in the Bush family.

A few months later, Neil and Maria finally tied the knot. The wedding ceremony took place in Jamal Daniel’s palatial home in Houston. Most of the Bush clan was present to toast the new couple, although George and Laura discreetly made other plans for the weekend. After a brief honeymoon, the couple settled  into Maria’s new home, a multi-million dollar mansion just down the road from Bar and Gampy.

In the charmed world of Neil Bush, it doesn’t matter what you do or even how badly you botch the job, it all works out very well in the end.

Out Of Time

There was a question ask why are so many Evangelicals voting for Trump. Well he has given millions to them in charity. But for me as a Messianic Jew I am voting for the King Cyrus "like" that I see in Trump. He is not a saint from his background, but he is also a giver. I am voting for the revelations to come from him being POTUS. Can he fix things? Maybe some things but No, I hope he proves me wrong if he is elected.

We cannot even fix ourselves as a Nation which is the reason for what we have currently in our elected officials. Just my opinion. Only Yeshua can fix what we want fixed, we cannot overcome what the Obama's administration has done with the Constitution and our judicial system, the TPP is already in place. Trump will be the only one though that will expose the truth without realizing it to the American people. The secret societies are crapping their pants. Which is why we may not have an election. Will Trump take the CFR initiation? And then expose them? Because all the rest of them running for President have already had theirs…So think about that.

God in His great wisdom throughout the course of human history, has chosen not only to fulfill His plans and purposes through men and women who have yielded to the sound of His voice, but He has also chosen to accomplish His will through men and women who have ignored and rebelled against Him.

Trump is as corrupt as most politicians he has been a lobbyist himself with the establishment. He has taken and given. There are things we do not know but that whole entire arena knows. I believe that Trump is the mouthpiece to revel to the world of the hidden things and that is his part in this entire election, whether he is elected or not. No matter whom you vote for you will have the same results! People just don’t get it Judgment is coming. I am voting for Trump for one reason and that is to expose the hidden.

One such man was King Cyrus mentioned in Isaiah 45.

Isaiah prophesied of Cyrus and speaks as a mouthpiece of the Lord when he declared, “I have even called you by your name [Cyrus]; I have named you, though you have not known Me. I am the Lord and there is no other; there is no God besides Me.

I strengthen you, though you have not known Me, so that they may know from the rising of the sun and from the west that there is no one besides Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other” (Is. 45:4-6).

How soon do the trivial pursuits of man wantonly forget the Lord?  For He is the Lord our God and it will be His will upon this nation. Those who have eyes to see, see a similar eagle from the east to execute the Lord’s will upon the unrighteous yet stouthearted leaders that rule over us.

That time appears to be upon us.

(Is. 46:9-12)
9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, 10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: 11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it. 12 Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:

What a powerful and profound prophetic declaration to a man who did not know or serve the Lord! God does use the wicked and ungodly to bring about His plans and purposes. It will take someone from the inside to turn it upside down. If anything Trump is sounding the alarm like a Trumpet to all that heeds God’s warning and he doesn’t even know it.

We must prepare ourselves spiritually and repent for what is getting ready to pour out on America. We all must accept the will of God whether it is Cruz or Romney or Hillary the end results are going to be the same unless we all repent on a national level. So we will see how it plays out. We have let our system get so corrupt this is what we deserve.

Big AGRA and Big PHARMA Rule in WASHINGTON

Big AGRA and Big PHARMA Rule in WASHINGTON

The FDA and USDA have become the legislative and executive branches of Monsanto, Dow, Bayer and the likes.

President Obama has unbelievably approved two biotech crops, Monsanto’s Roundup Ready genetically modified (GMO) alfalfa and Roundup Ready genetically modified (GMO) sugar beets. They will be planted as early as this spring, despite widespread acknowledgement that these crops are certain to contaminate both conventional and organic farmers’ non-GMO crops. The deregulation of GMO Roundup Ready alfalfa could lead to the genetic contamination of all conventional and organic alfalfa within five years.

Our federal regulatory agencies and the White House have consistently sided with the vested financial interests of agricultural biotech corporations who are only interested in their absolute control over seeds and crops and have shown a complete disregard for our nation’s laws, sound scientific theory, the livelihoods of family farmers, and the health and well-being of our citizens and the environment.

 

Organic agriculture builds nutrients and controls pests through natural methods that are largely free. Organic farmers purchase few expensive soil enhancers and recycle many biological wastes. They can produce high yields that appear less affected by variable weather than those of industrial agriculture. Where organic farming is practiced, it is profitable. It regenerates soil and water resources. It can be adopted without requiring people to import fertilizers or pesticides or patented seed. Especially, it doesn’t require farmers to don rubber suits and respirators to spray dangerous chemicals.

Ninety-three percent of the alfalfa hay in the Us does not use any herbicides. Alfafa is a perennial legume that does not have to fight weeds as do corn, soybeans, cotton or canola. Ninety-three percent of the alfalfa hay in the U.S. does not use any herbicides.  As a perennial legume, it does not suffer from the same weed pressures as other crops, such as corn, soybeans, cotton and canola. GMO alfalfa will only lead to an increase of glyphosate-resistant superweeds.  USDA’s Vilsack backed by Obama ruthlessly ignored the basic biological principles of pollination and good agricultural practices. Industrial agriculture, far from being the salvation it promises, is actually undermining the resource base—healthy soil, clean water, and diversity of plants and animals—needed to sustain the world’s growing human population in the long term.

This decision undermines opportunities for farmers in America, particularly in important export markets for conventional alfalfa and in the growing organic dairy industry. It also severely restricts the choice of farmers and 50 million U.S. consumers who every day exercise their right to consume food that is certified organic and free of GMOs, that are yet to be proven safe for human consumption and our common environment, because all previous studies have shown that they are not.

Genetic food engineering is the most powerful and pernicious technology known to man and yet it is being released throughout our environment with contempt for the multiple ethical issues it raises and the irreversible harm it will bring to life on earth as we know it.

Hundreds of thousands of petitions were signed, scientists from all over the world warning of the end of free choice agriculture as we know it and the onset of serious irreversible negative health and sustainability consequences. To be sure, no one in Washington, the least Mr. President, gives a dam about the politely worded petitions. Since “corporations are people too” Obama may have bought himself a guaranteed second term. And no worry the First Lady plays in her own organic garden at the White House with all the handy help you tax dollars can buy.              

Why then, when it is obviously not good for us, is it being approved? Well for Greed.  It is good for Monsanto, and what is good for Monsanto is even better for the hundreds of politicians and government employees who are directly or indirectly on the big Pharma and big Agro (one of the same) payroll.

The FDA and the USDA have become the legislative and executive branches of Monsanto, Bayer, Dow and the likes. When you look at all the Monsanto executives who have gone through the revolving door between private industry and government oversight, you uncover the truly disturbing picture of America today.

The FDA and the USDA are packed with pro-business, pro-corporation advocates who often have massive conflicts of interest when it comes to protecting the health of the public. As for Fish and Wildlife they are a bunch of yes-men for the cattle and animal farming industries and routinely kill tens of thousands of wild animals with the cruelest methods to satisfy the ranchers insatiable need for (public) land.

The revolving door between private industry and government oversight agencies is so well established these days, it has become business as usual to read about scandals, conflicts of interest and blatant pro-industry bias, even when it flies in the face of science or the law.

“Michael Taylor, a former Monsanto executive, whose career literally fits the definition of the revolving door  between government, lobbying and corporate interests. Before serving on the Obama ag transition team, Taylor made a name for himself rotating in and out of law firms, Monsanto, the USDA and FDA. While at the FDA he helped write the rules to allow rBGH into the American food system and our childrens milk.”

As an example, the FDA cover up from 1984 thru 1989 of the serious sicknesses brought on by genetically engineered  L-triptophan. Watch the video lecture the dangers of GMO and cover up by Jeffrey Smith to understand the extent of the cover up and the FDA’s dishonest corporate policies with complete disregard for the public health, concerns and wishes.

USDA director Vilsack who when he was governor regularly traveled in Monsanto’s jet, was named governor of the year by Biotechnology Industry Organization. He is also an ardent support of corn and soy based bio-fuels, which use as much or more fossil energy to produce them as they generate, while driving up world food prices and literally starving the poor.

FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg, a former dental amalgam company executive, helped subvert a federal judge’s order to label mercury fillings as a hazard to children and pregnant women.

The FDA’s top medical-device regulator, Daniel Schultz, resigned following internal dissent over decisions that his critics said were too friendly to industry.

Janet Woodcock, the director of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, was recently accused of a massive conflict of interest stemming from an ethics complaint filed by Amphastar Pharmaceuticals Inc.

The agency’s list of corruptions and collusions is now a mile long. And each piece of new legislation aimed to improve its function seems to do just the opposite—making the FDA even more dependent upon financial support by Big Pharma.

Raw wisdom has greats articles on the subject

Another source is from Ethical Investing (Monsanto the  most unethical company….)

You may want to read Wikipedia’s article on Monsanto

Appendum: It appears that Obama also approved a GE corn seed designed for ethanol, obviously a personal favor to Vilsack. This absurd crop uses far more energy to produce than it will ever put out , while pervertly gobbling up valuable farmland and water resources needed to feed an ever growing population. I have been raking my brain as to why? Obama has gone against the vast majority of all American people, against the EU guidelines, against the advice of the vast majority of scientists and against the wish of all small farmers precariously still in business. Monsanto is one of the wealthiest, most powerful corporations in the world and since they are “people too” , could it be that our president just bought himself a guaranteed second term?

We, the people, have the right to choose the type of food that we want to grow and consume. It is not so farfetched to imagine Monsanto’s (retired BlackWater) thugs “rounding us up” and shoving down our mouths freeze dry peebles of GMO grains and  rendered animal parts. We must organize some old fashioned grass roots activism because it is going to take a little more than a bit of discontent and fussing on the internet to get back our American Dream.

So who you vote for matters. Donald Trump is self funded and is not influenced by Monsanto. Who do you serve?

Big Pharmas contribution to Donald Trump is not even worth mentioning.

Their biggest recipient? Clinton. She collected $336,416 in donations, over a third of the total contributions during the 2016 presidential campaign. The next biggest recipient was Republican candidate Jeb Bush, who collected less than half the amount of Clinton. Trump received the least in donations: $1,010, enough to buy one Daraprim pill.

Sanders' and Clinton's drug plans would give the government a bigger role in negotiating drug prices. Clinton wants the government-run Medicare to have a say in negotiating the price of drugs. Currently Medicare — one of the largest buyers of prescription drugs in America — has no seat at the negotiating table. Sanders also wants Medicare to leverage its bargaining power when it comes to prescription drugs, as well as import prescription drugs from Canada.

The contributions to Clinton and Bush came last year, when no one knew who the front-runner would be by now. "Established industries and lobbies give primarily to establishment candidates that they perceive will be leaders and eventual nominees," said Scott Swenson, vice president for communications for Common Cause, a nonprofit political watchdog group. As Swenson explained it, early money is like a "bet" on likely winners.

The pharmaceutical industry is the 15th most generous industry in terms of donations so far in the 2016 presidential election. The health industry overall — combining health professionals, hospitals, HMOs and pharmaceutical companies — donated over $9.5 million to the 2016 presidential candidates, making it the third largest donating industry. Clinton continues to be the biggest beneficiary from this group, receiving more than $3.5 million in donations. The next candidate in line is Ted Cruz, who received just over $1.1 million in health care industry donations.

These donations don't include how much corporations also spend on lobbying Congress. For example, Pfizer, one of the most influential and largest pharmaceutical companies, spent more than $10 million in lobbying efforts last year. Lobbying money has traditionally followed large health care initiatives. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, the health care industry hit record lobbying limits in 2009, spending nearly $273 million around the time the Affordable Care Act was being debated in Congress.

30 million Polio Vaccines with Cancer Contamination according to the CDC.

Is it in my head or do I really have Super Powers?

This is something I have felt or experienced from an early age. It usually occurs when I am waking up after a good nights sleep, that period where the sub-conscious part of your thoughts returns to the conscious I suppose; I'm not an expert on this so bear with me as this is the first time I have ever written these thoughts down.

For a long time I thought that if I just concentrated hard enough, I could move objects with my mind. Crazy or not? Thoughts of having the power to fly through the skies just by will of mind, just like Superman or many of the comic book heroes we all grow up with as children. Don't be concerned, I am not about to take an elevator to the top of a tall building to test this theory out .. I'm not that brave.

Other dreams I have are for becoming wealthy such as winning the lotto and being able to help people financially. It might be a thought of for example, building an orphanage in South East Asia, or helping people in my own country get out of a rut and be able to defend for themselves…. that little helping hand onto the first rung of the ladder so to speak. You've probably seen the TV shows like "The Secret Millionaire". Darker thoughts then sometimes come up as to why I would want to do that.

Is it because I just want to have power over people and maybe just a way for me to "buy" friends? I have never been a social animal, I tried over the years but most people simply don't get me. I say something that might be taken the wrong way or they don't get my dry and sometimes abrupt sense of humor. 

I am always willing to help others and will go out of my way to do that but lately find I have very little patience. I want to be able to change peoples lives, somehow or someway … how I am not sure.

Friends and colleagues reading this may have some ideas what could be behind these thoughts of mine. Are these perceived Super Powers just another way of telling me that I can do some good, maybe not by rescuing a damsel from a burning car using physical strength but in other more spiritual ways.

I suppose I could have watched too many sci-fi movies but I believe there is more to it than that. If it was, then these dreams / thoughts would not occur so often. They would vanish into oblivion just like so many of my childhood memories … I can't remember many details of them only snippets. This was probably down to not being a happy child during my teenage years, as I had a father who was a real ass and control freak plus being continually bullied at school for many years.

Time will tell I think, although I don't want to be too old when these revelations eventually appear.

Showing up is half the Battle

https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/jc/AAEAAQAAAAAAAAlmAAAAJDRhNTA2MzgyLWViYWYtNDA4ZS1iNTM4LTNjYmExNzcyNmYwMw.jpgLinkedIn-trainingI

I wrote this post several days ago on LinkedIn Pulse, and it was quite well -received.

I read a post by Chelsea Handler on Pulse.  

She talked about how she learned the power of just showing up, when she was a waitress.  She became the go-to person when someone needed to have their shift filled.

VP – NJ Marketing at MarketHive | Entrepreneur | Marketing Automation | CRM | Leads Online | Social Media | Local SEO

 

I totally agree, 50% of the battle is showing up. The other 50% is making the right preparation to be really good at what you do. For online marketers, that means prepare the best material for your podcast, for your webinar, for your product launch or new service, so that you will hit a home run every single time.

When I started doing an online LinkedIn Workshop 2X every week, (for free), a few people told me, "No  , no one is doing that, you might go broke doing that, you won't have the time, you might break your promise and not show up". I was told a hundred reasons why it might not work as planned.

Now I have hundreds of people that enjoy and look forward to these presentations, some attend live, and others request the link to the recording, which I send to them faithfully every week. Now people are thinking, if this guy delivers that much good information for free, how much more he will deliver if I become this guy's customer? I like creating such a positive impression, and I look forward to these weekly presentations. They are the highlight of my week. (And by the way, I have not missed a single workshop since I started).

Regardless of how long you have been on LinkedIn, or how well you think you know this social network, believe it or not, things are changing all the time.   Stay on top of your game on LinkedIn, and connect with me to find out about these free workshops.  You will be glad you did!

Rush Limbaugh

The incredible 2016 political campaign season is as if the Lord himself (Jesus Christ) has put hands on it to use it to reveal the depth of corruption in this country. AKA: The running terror we see with the GOP political party, the MSM and so many of the talking heads are being revealed as part of the grans Luciferian scheme from the Illuminates and Freemasons.

Case in point Rush Limbaugh a suspected Illuminati member that has been hiding in plain sight.

RUSH LIMBAUGH!! MEGA-DITTOS!! TO THE MASTER COMMUNICATOR

Never before in American radio history has a talk show host possessed the combination of qualities that would endear himself to such a large segment of the American people. Rush combines intelligence, wit, and the ability to enunciate the issues of the day that combine to make him one of the true forces of the political landscape. In this article, I examine Rush from the Christian perspective, and show you why he is appealing to Christians, even the clergy.

The New World Order is coming! Are you ready? Once you understand what this New World Order really is, and how it is being gradually implemented, you will be able to see it progressing in your daily news!!

Learn how to protect yourself, your loved ones!

Stand by for insights so startling you will never look at the news the same way again.

YOU ARE NOW ON THE CUTTING EDGE

I discovered Rush Limbaugh in Summer, 1990, when I was driving my family back from a vacation to Montana. My first impression was one of hilarity, as he was airing a segment that mimicked Senator Ted Kennedy in his "Rose On My Chest" routine. I was laughing so hard that I nearly drove the car off the road. From that moment, I was hooked on Rush Limbaugh. It seemed that I just could not get enough of him, listening to every possible show. Fortunately, since I was a salesman that was on the road a lot, I could listen to most of his programs. I was so hooked that I found myself arranging my schedule so that I would be driving when his program was on.

There were several reasons I liked Rush Limbaugh so very much:

1. He articulated my political beliefs so very well. I really felt that he was speaking my language.

2. Rush believed in God, Creator, and argued against the beliefs of the Evolutionist crowd so brilliantly that i they seemed foolish in even believing in such nonsense.

3. Rush was anti-Abortion, and again, he argued against Abortion so brilliantly that it seemed no one could seriously listen to his program without being persuaded to also become anti-Abortion.

4. Rush articulated the importance of the Family to our society, and brilliantly showed the many ways in which our laws were undermining its importance. Consistently, Rush demonstrated his seemingly very normal family and his normal upbringing. I felt that I could closely identify with his Mother who called the show occasionally. She sounded just like my Mother, who was so enjoying her retirement years.

5. Rush was so in favor of the importance of Conservative Christian upbringing of children. He argued that it was proper to lovingly discipline children so they would not grow up to become foolish, arrogant, and unbridled.

6. Rush constantly showed how important traditional education was in the upbringing of children. He was very effective in showing how our current education system, from the Federal level all the way down to the Local level, was doing a masterful job in NOT educating our children, even though they suck up more dollars than our Pentagon.

7. Rush was economically conservative, and again, he brilliantly argued for our traditional approach to the economy. He decried the ballooning deficit, and informed his listeners of the various ways in which we, the People, were being fleeced.

8. In Foreign Affairs, Rush was again right on target, as far as I was concerned. He saw through the foolish baloney hype about Gorbachev. I absolutely loved his parodies of the "Gorbasims". He articulated the issues of the Gulf War better than anyone else. He also articulated the issues correctly on our relations with Russia, Europe, and Asia. I found very little in which to disagree with him.

9. Rush was fervently Free Trade, arguing that, if Governments would just get out of the way, our Free Enterprise, Capitalist economy would compete with every other country just fine, thank you. Just get out of the way, Uncle Sam, and leave our economy alone!

10. Rush was right on the money, again, with his position on taxation, and Governmental spending, and the importance of lowering the effective tax rate so as to stimulate the economy. Again, he correctly argued that our economy is not a Zero Sum game, as he calls it. When you lower tax rates, you so stimulate our economy that more dollars flow into the Treasury, not less.

11. Rush correctly defended the Entrepreneur as the backbone of our economy. He also defended the ability, and the right, of people to make as much money as they could legally make, as they exercised their God-given ability to think, to plan, and to act in our economy. Just because someone starts to make a lot of money in our economy does not mean that they did so by defrauding others!

12. Rush fervently pushed the concept of the traditional American Rugged Individualism that made our country the greatest in the world. No one should look to any government to help them, or to support them, but should go out into the marketplace to make their own mark. He correctly pointed out, time and time again, that Government cannot make anyone wealthy through their giveaway programs, but can only support them at the official poverty level. A person can rise above this poverty level only through their own initiative.

13. Rush brilliantly articulated the way in which these Government Welfare programs only hurt those people they were supposed to help. The people caught up in Welfare type programs were not made happy, but found themselves in a daily grind that made them only unhappy. In fact, this daily grind was grinding its victims up emotionally and mentally.

14. Rush defended the important role that Christian Churches play in the life of the American people. The values and attitudes that have made America great, preeminent in the world, flow from traditional Christianity. Rush argued, effectively, that these values and attitudes must continue to be the foundational rock upon which this country was established. America must get back to these values, or we might perish, Rush argued. My heart simply resonated with this message!!

15. Rush daily carved the politicians and others in Government that believed and acted in opposition to these views. Liberalism was the dirtiest word in Rush's vocabulary, as it was in mine. That single word embodies all the things which are currently wrong in American society, and Rush effectively articulates this situation, showing how it is working out in the daily news. Thus, Rush is able to point out to people those daily events that are working to destroy America, events that most Conservatives would not even notice. Thus, our ability to mobilize against many hurtful, destructive programs is greatly enhanced. Many a bill in Congress found itself in immediate trouble with Conservatives because Rush Limbaugh had articulated what it wanted to accomplish, and why it should be defeated.

16. Rush was adamantly against Gun Control, allowing only that maybe, it was appropriate to ban the "Saturday Special" handguns. With great humor, Rush pointed out the stupidity of the whole concept of trying to place restrictions of the private ownership of guns.

17. Rush daily carved up the Liberal Democratic Party for its seemingly single-minded pursuit of all these above programs, and values, and attitudes. Since I was a lifelong Republican, I found great pleasure in seeing how effectively Rush was illuminating people in the great inconsistencies and great dangers of Liberalism.

18. Rush consistently argued against Huge, intrusive Government, showing how such a Government threaten our liberties. I strongly agreed that we must return to a simpler, leaner, and smaller Government.

19. Rush was an effective debater. Not once has any listener been able to debate Rush on even terms. He is such a good champion for our Conservative cause. In fact, Rush has been able to make almost every person who tried to debate him,. simply look foolish.

20. Rush effectively argued against the seemingly total breakdown in individual and national morality that worries so many of us traditional Christians. Again, in the daily news, Rush points out how this breakdown is occurring, the many ways in which it is being caused, the many ways in which Government programs are encouraging this breakdown, and the devastating effects this moral breakdown would have on our society, were it not reversed.

21. Without being hateful, Rush showed how wrong Homosexuality was, and how it was aiding in the decline of our wonderful country. Again, and again, I felt my heart resonate on this issue. Rush seemed to hit the nail on the head time and time again. While hating the lifestyle, Rush demonstrated compassion for its victims, again being in line with our traditional Christian values.

22. I enjoyed Rush's enjoyment of sports, especially football.

23. I was impressed with the fervency that so many of his callers expressed toward Rush when they called the show. They revered him so much and expressed their deep gratitude that he was on the scene to effectively state the case of American conservatives. So many people told Rush, at the beginning of their conversation with him, that they appreciated him and were so glad that he was on the air, that Rush created the term "Dittos", which simply meant that they agreed with the expressed opinions, above. "Dittos" then became "Mega-Dittos" and various other related terms that Rush's listeners were able to create to express their love for him.

Rush Limbaugh has become a Messianic type leader of the American Conservatives. It is incredible that one man could so coalesce such a large group into one meaningful force. Rush is our leader, and he has become our icon.

I had never, ever, heard anyone so brilliantly, and so consistently, articulate the issues in which I had always felt so strongly. Rush so championed Christian causes that I waited patiently, expectantly, for the time he would announce that he was a Born Again Christian.

Of course, this never happened.

In fact, as I continued to listen to Rush Limbaugh, I found myself increasingly concerned, especially as I became more familiar with the plans of the New World Order. I was concerned by the following factors, in no particular order.

1. Rush's personal attitude seemed arrogant, especially his statement, "Talent On Loan From God". The Bible consistently argues against this type of personal view. In Romans 12:3, the Apostle Paul, who was quite revered in his day, also, stated, "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith."

In James 4:10, we read, "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up." In this case with Rush Limbaugh, he too often lifted himself up. I could sense that this type of arrogant attitude was resonating with many Conservatives, probably because they equated this attitude with someone who is successful and confident. But, Christians who know their Bible must be concerned.

In 1 Peter 5:5, we read, "Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time." Again, we read that God is the One Who will exalt us, that we are not to attempt to exalt ourselves. Our personal humility is to be so great that it is to be thought of as "clothing". And, then we further read that God Himself resists the proud.

Rush's arrogance bothered me a great, great deal.

2. Since I felt that Rush was a Christian, and that it was only a matter of time before he made such an announcement to his listeners, I kept waiting for him to speak of Jesus Christ. I have never, ever heard him speak the name of our dear Savior. Yet, Jesus Christ established the Second Covenant, rich in Grace and Mercy, and He became the Preeminent One, the only Way that a person can go to God the Father. Listen to Jesus' own words on this critically important matter.

In John 14:6, Jesus said, "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." No man can ever hope to come to God, the Father, except through the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Therefore, it is not enough for a man to profess a belief in God. If he does not also believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, is God in the flesh, and died a sacrificial death on the Cross for punishment of our sins, is not going to Heaven. Such a person will never see the God whom they profess. Do not be deceived on this point. You cannot believe in God the Father without believing in His Son, Jesus Christ, in the manner I described, above. Such an attempt separates God the Father from God the Son.

And, the Bible has some very strong things to say about this attempt at separation. In 1 John 2:22-23, we read, "Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also." Christian doctrine absolutely forbids anyone separating Jesus the Son from God the Father. This is the great sin of Freemasonry; while they profess great love, and admiration, and devotion, to God the Creator of the Universe, they deny that Jesus Christ is God, equal with the Father, coexistent with the Father, and the promised Messiah who takes away the sins of the world. Listen to the words of Albert Pike himself, the greatly revered Freemason, writing in his monumental Freemason book, "Morals and Dogma". pages 562-564.

"And the image of Ialdabaoth, reflected upon matter, became the Serpent-Spirit, Satan, the Evil Intelligence. Eve, created by Ialdabaoth, had by his Sons children that were angels like themselves. The Spiritual light was withdrawn from man by Sophia, and the world surrendered to the influence of evil; until the Spirit, urged by the entreaties of Wisdom, induced the Supreme Being to send Christos to redeem it. Compelled, despite himself, by his Mother, Ialdabaoth caused the man Jesus to be born of a Virgin; and the Celestial Savior, uniting with his Sister, Wisdom, descended through the regions of the seven angels … and entered with his sister into the man Jesus at the baptism in Jordan."

"Ialdabaoth, finding that Jesus was destroying his empire and abolishing his worship, caused the Jews to hate and crucify Him; before which happened, Christos and Wisdom had ascended to the celestial regions. They restored Jesus to life and gave Him an ethereal body, in which He remained eighteen months on earth, and receiving from Wisdom the perfect knowledge {… Gnosis}, communicated it to a small number of His apostles, and then arose to the intermediate region inhabited by Ialdabaoth, where, unknown to him, He sits at his right hand, taking from him the Souls of Light purified by Christos. When nothing of the spiritual world shall remain subject to Ialdabaoth, the redemption will be accomplished, and the end of the world, the completion of the return of Light into the Plenitude, will occur."

Wow!! Freemasons believe that a deity named Ialdaboath reflected upon matter to create the Serpent-Spirit, Satan. Then, later Ialdaboath created Jesus Christ!! It is difficult to comprehend greater blasphemy against the Name and Person of Jesus Christ. (You can read this text in full, plus other supporting texts, by downloading FREE01, "FREEMASONRY CONNECTION WITH THE NEW WORLD ORDER".

But, Freemasons strongly believe in God, as Creator, and spend great time and energy trumpeting this belief to the world. However, their writings and their speeches, never mention the name of Jesus Christ. And, they never give Jesus the preeminent view which the Bible teaches.

Now, think carefully. In describing this Freemason view of God at the expense of Jesus Christ, have I not accurately described the Rush Limbaugh radio program? Rush strongly espouses the belief of God Creator. He vigorously attacks the nonsense of Evolution, and speaks glowingly of God as a loving Father. But, I have never heard him confess that Jesus Christ is God, is equal to God the Father, and is the preeminent One through Whom men must go to go to Heaven. Rush simply glorifies God the Father. His position is perfect, typically Freemasonry. Keep this in mind as we proceed.

Now, back to the things which began to bother me about Rush Limbaugh.

3. Rush regularly employed sexual innuendo in his statements, usually when he was taking about homosexuality in general, and the Maplethorpe exhibits in particular. My eyes really opened up that Rush could not be truly Born Again if he was willing to engage in this behavior. He has since stopped this type of sexual innuendo.

4. After I had been disabused of the notion that Rush Limbaugh was Born Again, I was shocked the day that I first heard Rush emphatically state that, not only did he not believe in any Conspiracy concepts, but that he would never take anyone's calls who wanted to talk about any New World Order conspiracy. By this time, I was thoroughly versed in the Plans of the New World Order. I understood that one of their greatest fears is that the general public might become aware of their plans and would rebel against them. If this rebellion occurred before the government of each nation changed to a dictatorial one, the progress to the New World Order could become derailed.

Therefore, the Illuminati conceived of a brilliant plan that would act as a vaccine, that would inoculate the average person against a belief in a Conspiracy. For, if a person believed that a conspiracy were not even possible, they would not see it, even if evidences of it were strangling them by the throat. Therefore, the Illuminati has always attempted to persuade people that a conspiracy cannot exist, and that it is foolishness to believe otherwise. Their first major change occurred in our public schools, toward the beginning of this century, when textbooks began to espouse the concept that all historic events happen simply and only by accident. If there was any plotting that caused an event to occur, such plotting was the result of a limited group of people acting in a manner limited by time or space. But, it was impossible for a global conspiracy to occur, especially one that has been active for two hundred years. Impossible! snorts the New World Order planners, and the normal human mind tends to agree.

Isn't this the standard Rush Limbaugh line? Isn't it odd that Rush's line perfectly lines up with the line that the New World Order has been deliberately following for two hundred years? The perfect way to protect their nefarious plan, to conceal it from the eyes of the average citizen, is to inoculate the citizen's minds, to be predisposed to disbelieve in any conspiracy theories.

Yet, any Bible believing Christian, who knows his Bible, understands that Biblical doctrine and End Times prophecy absolutely teaches conspiracy. Here are some of the key Scriptures:

A. The Bible teaches that Satan was conspiring against God before God ever created this present world and universe. In Isaiah 14:12-14, God tells us of Lucifer's original rebellion, before this world was created. "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit."

This is history's first conspiracy, Lucifer conspiring against God, attempting to take His throne and His control over the universe. And, Lucifer convinced one-third of all the angels in Heaven to side with Him (Revelation 12:3-4). Of course, Lucifer failed miserably in this rebellion. God cursed him, and his angels, now called demons, and cast them from His presence. Lucifer's name became Satan, as a symbol of his defeat and his curse at the hands of God.

Now, the scene shifts to the garden of Eden. God has created Adam and Eve, in purity and obedience, and has placed them in the perfect Garden of Eden. God allowed them absolute reign of the Garden, placing only one restriction upon their activities. He forbade them to eat of the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. And, Adam and Eve happily lived with this restriction for an unspecified period of time, until Eve meets Satan who appears to her in the form of the Serpent. Satan convinces Eve that God really did not mean what He said, that she could safely eat this fruit, for when she eats it she shall become as God. Eve ate and convinced her husband to eat. This first sin caused God to curse mankind with death, disease, and unhappiness, and to curse His created world. (Genesis 3:1-19).

This is history's second recorded conspiracy, with Satan working through mankind rather than through God's angels.

Then, in the book of Daniel, we are given a glimpse of the warfare which is constantly occurring between God's holy angels and Satan's demonic host. In Chapter 10, Daniel prays for God's insight into the future of the nation, Israel. On the first day that Daniel prayed, God sent His messenger to give Daniel the answer. But, it took 21 days for the angel to get to Daniel, even though angels travel anywhere in the universe in the blink of an eye. Why did it take this angel so long to get to Daniel? Because he was detained by demonic angels in a supernatural battle. This battle was so intense, and the demonic host so strong, that this Godly angel had to receive help from Michael, God's Archangel. Then, this angel told Daniel that he and God's host were constantly battling demonic forces which were trying to influence the King of Persia (10:12) and later, the King of Greece (10:20).

In other words, Satan's demonic host is constantly trying to conspire against God, working through human leaders. God's angels are constantly battling against this demonic influence over human leaders, to ensure that His Plan for the world will prevail.

This is conspiracy. Working in secret, without anyone knowing what is going on, and working for an illegal end, namely, to overthrow God as Sovereign of the Universe, replacing Him as ruler. This is conspiracy.

Then, in the End of the Age, God foretold that the political nations of the entire world would reorganize into only 10 Super Nations, each with its own ruler (Daniel 2:28-45; 7:1-27; Revelation 17:12-17). In Revelation 17:12-13, God foretells that the purpose of the final 10 Kings will be to gain control over the entire world for the express purpose of handing their power to the Antichrist. This is conspiracy. Working in secret to achieve an illegal result. The authority and power of every government of the world is planned to be eliminated and replaced by the authority of the new global government structure headed by Antichrist. This is pure Conspiracy.

And Christians who know the Bible knows this! When I show Christians undeniable evidences that the New World Order Plan fulfills the Biblical prophecy of a developing global Conspiracy, I have no difficulty convincing them, because they can see prophecy being fulfilled. And, they understand that this Conspiracy on Earth is empowered, and directed, by supernatural, demonic beings battling with Godly angels in the Heavenlies. Finally, as a result of this supernatural power Christians have no trouble believing that the New World Order Conspiracy could have begun over 200 years ago, and could have passed from generation to generation of human leaders. Angelic beings, both of Satan and God, are eternal. To them, 200 years is nothing. So, the only question is: how quickly will God allow Satan's forces to advance their New World Order Plan? The Bible clearly foretells that, in the End of the Age, God will gradually withdraw His power, to allow Satan and his forces temporary victory. This victory will allow Satan to control the world politically, economically, and spiritually for only a brief 7 years, a time in which God will allow Satan to kill and to crush God's saints. And, Jesus, speaking in Matthew 24, likened this process to a woman giving birth; in other words, this conspiracy would occur over a period of time, beginning with Israel coming back to her land as a nation. Since this has occurred in 1948, we know that we are living in the End of the Age.

So, Rush is not only Biblically wrong when he opposes the very idea of a global Conspiracy, he again is taking the perfect path planned by New World Order leaders. Conceal the existence of the New World Order Conspiracy behind a mask of disbelief. If people disbelieve that it CAN exist, they will be inoculated against believing that it exists even though they are offered great proof.

5. When Rush Limbaugh strongly supported NAFTA, I knew conclusively that he was part of the New World Order Plan. Before you have a knee-jerk reaction against this concept, please allow me to tell you that NAFTA had very little to do with creating a better economy by drawing together Canada, North America, and Mexico into one union. The real, hidden goal of creating NAFTA was to create Super Nation #1 in the New World Order Plan to reorganize the world into 10 Super Nations!! In direct fulfillment of the Biblical prophecy quoted above!! (You read the full explanation of this New World Order Plan by reading NEWS1002, entitled, "NAFTA Fulfillment of Biblical Prophecy).

Of all parts of the Plan of the Illuminati to create the kingdom of Antichrist, this was THE MOST important, and PRECIOUS, part. It makes no difference to the practical working out of the New World Order Plan for Rush to expose Liberalism for all its contradictions and stupidities, even though their policies are establishing the exact situation that will fulfill the Plan. But, if the part of the Plan calling for the 10-Nation reorganization were to fail, the New World Order Plan would be severely wounded. Thus, even though Rush opposes the great majority of what the Plan calls for, he swings into line on the one issue that is of paramount importance to the New World Order Plan, i.e., creating the 10 Super Nations.

Think, also, who were the primary opponents to NAFTA. They were Conservatives, Free Market believers, the very type of people over whom Rush has achieved such leadership. Had Rush been created solely for the purpose of overcoming Conservative opposition to NAFTA, he would have been worth any amount of monetary compensation. NAFTA was the Crown Jewel of the New World Order Plan to reorganize the world into 10 Super Nation states. And this 10-Nation reorganization Plan is the Crown that will soon be placed on the head of the New Age Christ.

There is one other part of the New World Order Plan of which you must be made aware: The Bible foretells that, when the Antichrist arises, the spiritual False Prophet [foretold to be considered as Christian, Rev 13:11) will arise to urge his followers all around the globe to follow this Christ. Similarly, lesser religious leaders are planned to immediately urge their constituency to support the Christ. I wonder. Will Rush Limbaugh use his program to urge his Conservative constituency to support the Christ? He can use all sorts of political and economic reasons for such support, while summarily dismissing all religious objections to the contrary.

At this point, I ask all Christians to solemnly consider my words here, rather than immediately reject them outright. Jesus foretold that, in the Kingdom of Antichrist, unparalleled deception would be the norm. This deception would be so very good that even the Elect, the Born Again, would be deceived, were that possible (Matthew 24:24). Of course, the only reason it is not possible is that the Holy Spirit, working both through God's Bible and in the heart of every believer, to reveal the Truth.

Do not be deceived by Rush Limbaugh. He is a very clever part of the Plan. I believe his purpose was to so grab the enthusiastic leadership of American's Conservatives that he could get NAFTA passed, could act as a lightening rod to harmlessly discharge Conservative anger over the policies being enacted to move us into the New World Order, and possibly to convince his following to accept the New Age Christ when he arises.

Do not be deceived. The coming New World Order fulfills all Biblical prophecy about the End Times, which makes it Satanic to the core. Which indeed, it is!! The only preparation one can make is spiritual.

Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use this knowledge many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.

If you are not born again, I encourage you to either E-Mail me so we can talk, or go to a Fundamental Bible-believing church in your area (we can help you find one), where someone can show you the blessed, and easy, Biblical way in which you are born again. Remember Jesus' Words, "You must be born again …" (John 3:3-7).

If you have been blessed by this ministry, which seeks to educate and warn people, so that they can see the coming New World Order — Kingdom of Antichrist — in their daily news, then we need your support to stay on the Internet.

The sword is coming, and coming both quickly and with enormous power. But, most people, including most Christians, do not see it coming. Will you be a "Watchman On The Wall" with us? (Ezekiel 3:17-19, God's most solemn warning)

And, we do need your support. God promised in 2 Corinthians 9:6-11, "… God loves a cheerful giver … God … will also provide and multiply your resources for sowing and increase the fruits of your righteousness .Thus you will be enriched in every way .." God will enrich you for your prayers and your financial support of this ministry; think of it, we are sending out a unique warning to potentially tens of millions of people!! Please pray and give as God leads you. Please make out your check or money order to "Cutting Edge Ministries". Or, you may contribute by VISA, Mastercard, or American Express, by clicking to the page entitled, "Supporting Our Ministry". Give as God leads you.

The End is very close. Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use it many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.

If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, but have been very lukewarm in your spiritual walk with Him, you need to immediately ask Him for forgiveness and for renewal. He will instantly forgive you, and fill your heart with the joy of the Holy Spirit. Then, you need to begin a daily walk of prayer and personal Bible Study.

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, but have come to realize His reality and the approaching End of the Age, and want to accept His FREE Gift of Eternal Life, you can also do so now, in the privacy of your home. Once you accept Him as Savior, you are spiritually Born Again, and are as assured of Heaven as if you were already there. Then, you can rest assured that the Kingdom of Antichrist will not touch you spiritually. If you would like to become Born Again, turn to our Salvation Page now.

We hope you have been blessed by this ministry, which seeks to educate and warn people, so that they can see the coming New World Order — Kingdom of Antichrist — in their daily news.

Finally, we would love to hear from you. You can write us at:

Never Give Up

Never Give Up

Life can be very challenging at times, following our move to the UK from tropical climes we have had to to face up to higher prices and colder weather. Lucky for us this winter has been milder than normal. We realised from the start that we needed extra income. Jasmin my wife found some cleaning jobs to build an additional income stream , however it was at a cost. Lots of driving early morning and late nights for minimum wages. I spent six months applying for many jobs, filling in many forms and hearing nothing. What has happened to the country, it does not take much effort to send out a reply say sorry you have not been successful in this technological age.

Go Ape Zipline

The next problem is the zero contract hours usually run by agencies where you are registered on the books of an agency, you then rely on the agency to find you work. Both my wife and myself spent a few hundred pounds getting certified documentation such as Disclosure and Barring Services (DBS) checks for working with vulnerable people. Jasmin attended a week of care work training at her own expense and then never heard any thing more. My own teaching agency rarely contacts me and has never offered me work.

No replies to job applications are one thing but, if you are lucky enough to be selected for interview there are employers who still fail to advise you if you are unsuccessful.

With this kind of scenarios it is no wonder that people become disolutioned.

As last year drew to a close, we took stock of our situation and wrote out our new year resolution, publishing on a group page for anyone to see, this simple action help focussing on goals and from time to down when spirits are low, we have found it refocussed our minds and effort.

I decided that in view of the poor response to job applications, due possibly to my age, although Agism is banned in the UK, I would stop applying for jobs and would instead concentrate on building my own online business with MarketHive at the end of February.

The middle of February approached and my thoughts and actions started to change as I prepared to return to full-time online marketing and then the breakthrough on 17th February:-

Do you feel as strongly as we do about living life adventurously? Then Go Ape could be for you!

I Just love adventure it been in my blood for the past 15 years and is the reason I took early retirement and became an adventure racer!, my last job in my favoured sport was teaching sailing 8 months previously and this one although land based offered the chance to help people to enjoy outdoor challenges in safety.

This is my calling, my prayers have been answered.

Four days later I was requested to attend an interview/practical assessment. 7 fellow applicants on the half day assessment aged 17-30 all younger than my own children.

To start off we had to introduce ourselves speaking for two minutes and I was surprised that most found this hard, this was where their age was against them. As I got onto adventure racing, I asked them to stop me when they had heard enough.

We split into two groups for a team task, the result was our group would probably survive the other would probable not survive

The stakes were high on the physical test a climb UP a zipline, I was in the last two the youngest and the oldest, all our predecessors had completed the task. Being the gentleman I took the the slightly higher line which reduced my starting run up and we were off. My feet left the ground early and as the momentum from my run slowed it was hand over hand with my arms keeping a steady rhythm I pulled past the girl and as angel steepened approach the landing platform arms started to fail, I turn around to see if going forward was better, not really so turned backwards once again, so near I am not giving up, Stop hold on rest a little regain composure, climb again, burn in arms platform there, not quite last effort. Clip on safety lines . Success. The final task disconnect the pulley system, now the higher line presented a problem as I was already standing on tip tow and needed to jump to be able to release the karibeener. A few attempts were required with a little help from an instructor, a bang in the face, I was off. Time to encourage the girl who was now on the steepest part and was stalled ready to give up and no amount of encouragement would change her mind she gave up and returned down the zip. Final task attach to zip line and return to start, pleased to complete in style landing on my feet.

Final task one on one interview, felt confident, a very good company to work for even thuogh I had never heard of them

Was a little surprised but happy the following day to be accepted, and immediately set about raising my fitness level after an inactive winter.

This is why I will never give up 

be prepared to do whatever it takes and more
