Who’s Reading This?
As a blogger I have read to be careful and aware of what you write because someone may be reading it. I’ve read that if a blogger is blogging to make money online that there are certain rules and requirements for writing opportunities that a blogger should follow; writing content must be unique, a blogger must not copy someone else’s content and writers should try and keep a positive tone. And in a whole another ball field and just as interestng and scary, I read this BBC News article yesterday, “Bloggers’ search for anonymity”, the internet has given the individual unprecedented power to reach out to millions but some governments are cautious, even hostile, to giving their citizens free access to ideas they deem too democratic and dangerous. Big Brother is watching you again. And what if I write the phrase “Down With Big Brother” criticizing the government in this blog entry? Will someone from the government come and arrest me while I am in class taking an exam? Well, according to the BBC News article, that’s exactly what happened in Syria. In Cuba, Egypt and Tunisia, they all censor and even lock up journalists and bloggers. And who, what publishers will be exempt from this? Is this thought crime at work in George Orwells 1984 novel? This is why the media rights group, Reporters Without Borders, has published The Handbook for Bloggers and Cyber-Dissidents. It’s pretty technical but it also contains some simple tips, so you can say what you think without having to worry the censors or cyber-police too much. Here is a great quote: In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, but, by that time, no one was left to speak up. Martin Niemoeller, Pastor (1892-1984). First it was them, and then it was me. Whose gonna be left when big brother comes? And what does this have to do with a No Police State? I have added a sitemeter visitor counter to this site today at the very bottom of the page because I am not even sure how may people are visiting this page myself. It’s Sunday again. Why am I blogging today, it’s supposed to be a day of rest. Have a great day.
Rehabilitation Nation
I love pot, I used to squat, smoke pot and like it a lot. But now I got burnout. I could be in need of some rehab. Should drugs be legalized? What would NORML, Narco News and High Times have to say about this? If you are a junkie or a drugaddict, drug rehab may be just the place for you. at Stone Hawk http://www.narcononstonehawk.com/ they offer every kind of addiction and treatment service under the sun, because they were once addicted. Stone Hawk is the most successful drug treatment program in the country with a history of an astounding 76%+ success rate. For narcos this program works great when others have failed. And what about those celebrities who leave rehab early? Stoned Hawk, excuse me…, Stone Hawk may be just the place for them also. Is Stone Hawk just as great as the Betty Ford Center? Alcoholics Anonymousers might love this place also. It sounds like a drug detox center where one can clear ones thoughts, body, mind and spirit. http://www.narcononstonehawk.com/ is where the healing begins. Stone Hawk center is located just 5 miles from downtown Battle Creek, Michigan nestled in a quiet semi-residential area. The 58,000 sq. ft. building is surrounded by rolling hills and large oak trees. The lake is stocked for fishing and the serenity makes it complete, for an addiction recovery. I am not sure if there is a swimming pool, steam room, sauna, library or computer room there also. And if anyone asks just say we’re High on Life. This is a sponsored review.
Writers Block

Today I am having I guess what could be called writers block, the block of writers. What do I write about today? I am somewhere in between writing about all of the horrifying world news I see everytime I turn on the television or read the newspaper, or link building for this blog to increase my search engine optimization for advertisers and sponsorship (would anyone like to exchange links with me?) I’ve read that Google page ranking is all about link popularity for websites, and posting in blog forums, or that Entrepreneurs blog I see on MyBlogLog which is a really great blog because I think I would like to be an entrepreneur also. And what if I can’t think of anything to write, could I just copy and paste some other bloggers post to save myself time and thought? Is that ethical? There are lots of wonderful writings and topics out there in bloggerland. Or maybe I can ask someone to contribute content to this page to help with posts? Well what’s the purpose of starting a blog if one does not want to blog? It is Friday the 13th today, if you are superstitious be aware.
Also, I will have artwork in a group show.

Psychic Power
I love Astrology. I have always been fascinated by the stars in the sky, religion, mysticism, the occult, the supernatural, the secret knowledge of the unknown and all things spiritual. I always wonder what the crystal ball has to say about life. There are lots of great books that deal with mystic topics, “The Secret Language of Birthdays”, “Alchemy and Mysticism”, “Tarot” and others. Tarot card decks symbolize inner reality and are great for inner exploration, for the images of the tarot cards are mirror images of yourself. If you need help with lifes challenges, Dr. Peter Filis http://psychicpower.com.au is a person to contact. He offers face-to-face and psychic readings. He is a numerologist, palmist and tarot interpreter. Dr. Peter Filis’s readings are completely honest. He will tell you exactly what he sees, the good, the bad and the in between. He also offers labels at http://psychicpower.com.au/tarot-labels.html for aspiring tarot card readers. You just peel them off and stick them onto the back of your own tarot cards for instant readings and a quick and easy way to learn to read the Tarot ! Dr. Peter Filis also offers other useful information and additional readings as well. This is a sponsored review. Have a great day.
MTA polizei and musicians
Is the New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority becoming the New York City Metropolitan Terrorizer Association? Can someone remove all of the NYC MTA polizei from the subway system? Can the NYC MTA just make its subway fares free? Can the MTA free its riders and its subway musicians from its system of harrassment? And those “If you see something say something” messages and random bag searches are a terrorize the people campaign in itself. Yesterday I learned that now I should attend this Saturdays April 14th Earth Day event, the National Day of Climate action, http://stepitup2007.org just to help protect my friends saxophone in case the MTA polizei policy issue my friends a summons for playing their music in the subway. The National Day of Climate Action will be rallies and gatherings across the country to call for action on global warming and climate change and MUNY joins the National Day of Climate Action in a marathon concert at Times Square from 10am to 6pm, celebrating mass transit as a major solution to reducing carbon emissions and I should be there to help save their horns from becoming a New York City subway statistic. Since when did my job become horn saver? My friend Welf, from the Underground Horns , a brass band, performs with “Drumadics”, drummers. They have been playing their music in scheduled weekly performances as part of the MTA Arts for Transit/Music Under New York, http://mta.info/mta/aft series . Their music is fun and spiritual. And there is this policy officerial who keeps shutting them down with his volumnmeter who has now threatened to issue them a summons the next time they show up to play which would be this Saturday as part of the April 14th Earth Day Event at the Times Square subway station. So what does one do? Maybe subway musicians get complaints and get tossed out of the subway all of the time. Can one not tolerate art? What ever happened to freedom of speech? Since when did art and music in public spaces become a crime?
For more information about these musicians, you can view the Underground Horns YouTube video at http://concretebeat.blogspot.com , and the Drumadics page at http://myspace.com/drumadics .
And what does this have to do with a No Police State? Happy Earth Day. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.![]()
Congregation Segregation
This Holy Week thing is making me wonder, are churches the most segregated places on planet earth? I just realized that everytime I want to go to church I have to find a church mass, communion and religious worship service for my “Demonination” my nationality. For what reason can’t all churches welcome everyone regardless of your race, color or creed. The one place where one goes to find God and be free is not free, it’s segregated by nationality and denominations. It’s either all Christian, all Protestant, all Jewish, all Episcopalian, all Catholic, all Muslim, all Buddhist or all something else.
This Tower of Babel confusion of the languages, cultures and nations thing has got me confused.
And what if I want to go to church with someone who is not my nationality? We’d have to look around really hard to find a church that would accept both of our nationalities. I do believe there are some free, liberal, multicultural and diverse churches who welcome everyone such as Interfaith, Unitarian and Universalist churches who approach faith, religion and spirituality in a non traditional, creedless and non dogmatic way and have no creedal requirements imposed on their members. Times Square Church in Manhattan is an example of this. But for the most part, churches have always remained segregated.
I am losing faith in the churches for this reason, they seem Saint Hypocritical and Saint Elitist in their God loves you for who you are speeches. Where can I go to find God and not be judged by the color of my skin? Should I just become an Atheist? Happy Easter.
Vacation Getaways
I could use a vacation. Living in the city can get stressful sometimes and one could use a break, a vacation getaway to a paradise somewhere, or at least to another part of the world. It’s always wonderful to become a tourist and travel to see sites and places that are new and different. Maybe Asia would be a good place. Well what about having a place to stay when you travel? At Asia Hotel News, http://asiahotelsnews.blogspot.com , you can find all of the news and special rates about discounted hotels in Asia. Asia Hotels, http://asiahotelsnews.blogspot.com has all of the hotels in Asia listed right on the internet and you can book and secure a room online. Asia Hotels, http://asiahotelsnews.blogspot.com has the favorite tourist destinations like Bali, Hong Kong, Bankok, Sydney and other destinations all listed online. They recommend 5 star hotels with amneties such as swimming pools, restaurants, golf courses,, gyms, bars and all of the other qualities that make a hotel great. And what better way to take a vacation than to your favorite Asia destination while staying at a beautiful hotel located near all of the wonderful tourist attractions the area has to offer. Have a great day.
The Holy War
Easter is upon us. It is the Holy Week and Jesus, religious articles and programing are gracing the pages of publications and airwaves everywhere. While this topic is too extensive to write about in one paragraph, I am attempting to summarize it. Just a couple of days ago I was watching a program on CNN about the end times. Is it the end of the world? There were two guests on who had written a book about the end of the world who could have been speaking right off of the website Prophecy Central http://bible-prophecy.com , a world of information about biblical prophecy that details an outline of the future. I am a religious fanatic and I believe we are living in the last days, though this has been said since the beginning of time many of the bible prophecies and scriptures are being fulfilled in our time. I believe in the Mayan calendar 2012 theory also, that when their calendar ends in 2012 the world is over. And I also believe that Babylon is New York, The Statue of Liberty, a great whore who sits on a beast having seven heads over many waters, nations and tongues with ten horns on her head who burns with fire. The CNN program detailed something like: Israel became a nation in 1948, captured Jerusalem in 1967 plus 40 years, a bible generation equals 2007, a super sign the end is near. The Battle of Armageddon, World War III, the Antichrist, and the mark of the beast will occur in 2007, now that’s a really scary sign, and Iran preparing for nuclear war against Israel, possible Ezekiel’s war of Gog and Magog. And the false prophets will say “Peace, peace” when there is no peace. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matthew 24:6-8. Here is a prophetic top 10 predictions of the end of the world from a prophecy website to be interpreted: 1. Global Terrorism 2. Unrest in the Middle East 3. National I.D. Initiatives 4. Military buildup 5. The worlds growing focus on Jerusalem 6. The European Unions political merger . 7. Ecumenicalism (One World Religion) 8. Civil liberty concerns 9. The collapse of morality 10. China’s growing economic and military might.
The microprocessor and microchips fit in there somewhere. Watch and be ready for the return of Jesus Christ and if the year 2007 passes and no end of the world…….
Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.
