  3. Gog and Magog Sign Military Pact

    in Off Topic posts

    Posted

    Things are starting to wind down or should I say for many of us wind up^, our redemption draws near.

    God's timing is  amazing and surely not our timing.

    Fail not to read the signs of the times  they are everywhere.

    If you are not a believer ask God if he is real, He will love to hear from you and answer.

    Blessings

    Tonight I came over her to look around and what I found was a place of love and prayers,

    also the name of Jesus and His Blood used in the same sentence. Oh goodness how refreshing

    it was for us to know those can still be used and open to the public.

    I went through the Drug situation with my sister, one of her sons was addicted

    and ended up doing 9 years in prison.

    We will pray for all those and their families enduring this terrible situation.

    Much love and many Blessings

  13. Buy Silver: Hot Tip

    in Gold & Precious Metals

    Posted

    Hi to all,

    This is a quick note on my theory concerning silver.

    Many places in the Bible it mentions silver before gold.

    Jesus Christ was betrayed for 30 pieces  of silver, why not gold?

    Peter told the man at the gate silver and gold have I not,

    but what I have I give to you in the name of Jesus Christ. 

    Reading the Bible for many years it has been easy for me.

    Buying silver can be a vey good investment I believe.

     

    This is something you might want to study?

     

    A little funny now,

    Don't forget how that silver bullet helped the Lone Ranger LOL

     

    Many Blessings to all and God Bless America and Israel

    (That is why the Bible says “blood as high as a horses bridle”. With all the reports of UN vehicles being reported in transit, and all the other things you hear and read about, it should tell you how close it is.)

    The above statement I disagree with, that refers to the Battle of Armageddon.

     

    I do believe in FEMA CAMPS, Martial law, they will confiscate our guns and many other unfortunate difficulties.

    I do know that God is Jehovah Sabaoth  (OUR GREAT COMMANDER-IN CHIEF) and what he says will be the final word!

    I do believe we need to be born again and ready at all times.

    I do believe things are moving quickly toward a NEW WORLD ORDER.

    Holy Spirit revive us again send a spiritual wave of refreshing across America as we cry out for mercy.

    Pray for our President and those in authority as we do so for each other.

    God keep your hand on America.

  22. 15 Plants and Herbs That Can Boost Lung Health,

    in Natural Cures and Health Talk

    Posted

     

    http://preventdisease.com/news/14/012214_15-Plants-Herbs-Boost-Lung-Health-Heal-Respiratory-Infections.shtml

     

    15 Plants and Herbs That Can Boost Lung Health, Heal Respiratory Infections And Even Repair Pulmonary Damage

    A wave of viral and bacterial infections is sweeping across the Northern Hemisphere and people are taking longer to heal from an array of symptoms within the respiratory system. If you are resorting to conventional medicine to address these infections with antibiotics, you are not only adding to the problems associated with antibiotic resistance, but you're also doing little to address the healing mechanisms within your body to address the cause. Herbal remedies not only boost lung health, but they can heal infections and even repair lung damage. Here are 15 of the best herbs to boost lung health.

    1. LICORICE ROOT

    Licorice is one of the more widely consumed herbs in the world. In Traditional Chinese Medicine it occurs in more formulas than any other single herb because it is thought to harmonize the action of all other herbs. Licorice is very soothing and softens the mucous membranes of the throat and especially the lungs and stomach and at the same time cleanses any inflamed mucous membrane that needs immune system support. . It reduces the irritation in the throat and yet has an expectorant action. It is the saponins (detergent-like action) that loosen the phlegm in the respiratory tract, so that the body can expel the mucus. Compounds within this root help relieve bronchial spasms and block the free radical cells that produce the inflammation and tightening of the air ways. The compounds also have antibacterial and antiviral effects to them as well which helps fight off viral and bacterial strains in the body that can cause lung infections. Glycrrhizins and flavonoids can even help prevent lung cancer cells from forming which means they can even prevent lung cancer.

    2. COLTSFOOT

    coltsfoot-2.jpg

    Coltsfoot has been traditionally by Native Americans for thousands of years to strengthen the lungs. It clears out excess mucus from the lungs and bronchial tubes. It soothes the mucus membranes in the lungs, and has been shown in research to assist with asthma, coughs, bronchitis, and other lung ailments. Coltsfoot is available in dried form for tea or as an alcohol extract known as a tincture.

    3. CANNABIS

    The toxic breakdown of therapeutic compounds in cannabis from burning the plant are totally avoided with vaporization. Extraction and inhaling cannabinoid essential oils of the unprocessed plant affords significant mitigation of irritation to the oral cavity that comes from smoking. Cannabis is perhaps one of the most effective anti-cancer plants in the world shown in study after study to stimulate cannabinoid receptor activation in specific genes and mediate the anti-invasive effect of cannabinoids. Vaporizing cannabis allows the active ingredients to stimulate the body's natural immune response and significantly reduces the ability of infections to spread. Vaporizing cannabis (especially with very high amounts of cannabinoids) opens up airways and sinuses, acting as a bronchodilator. It is even a proven method to treat and reverse asthma.

    4. OSHA ROOT

    osha-4.jpg

    Osha is an herb native to the Rocky Mountain area and has historically been used by the Native Americans for respiratory support. The roots of the plant contain camphor and other compounds which make it one of the best lung-support herbs in America. One of the main benefits of osha root is that it helps increase circulation to the lungs, which makes it easier to take deep breaths. Also, when seasonal sensitivities flare up your sinuses, osha root which is not an actual antihistamine, does produce a similar effect and may be help calm respiratory irritation.

    5. THYME

    Thyme is very powerful in the fight against chest congestion. It produces powerful antiseptic essential oils which are classified as naturally antibiotic and anti-fungal. Thyme is a well known to zap acne than expensive prescription creams, gels and lotions. Thyme tea has the power to chase away and eliminate bacteria and viruses so whether your infection is based on either, it will work. Thyme has been used as a lung remedy consumed since antiquity and is used extensively to day to prevent and treat respiratory tract infections and bacterial infection pneumonia.

    6. OREGANO

    Although oregano contains the vitamins and nutrients required by the immune system, its primary benefits are owed to its carvacrol and rosmarinic acid content. Both compounds are natural decongestants and histamine reducers that have direct, positive benefits on the respiratory tract and nasal passage airflow. Oil of oregano fights off the dangerous bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, better than the most common antibiotic treatments. Oregano has so many health benefits that a bottle of organic oregano oil should be in everyone's medicine cabinet.

    7. LOBELIA

    lobelia-7.jpg

    Did you know that horses given lobelia are able to breath more deeply? Its benefits are not limited to equestrians. It has been used as "asthmador" in Appalachian folk medicine. Lobelia, by some accounts, is thought to be one of the most valuable herbal remedies in existence. Extracts of Lobelia inflata contain lobeline, which showed positive effects in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tumor cells. Lobelia contains an alkaloid known as lobeline, which thins mucus, breaks up congestion. Additionally, lobelia stimulates the adrenal glands to release epinephrine, in effect, this relaxes the airways and allows for easier breathing. Also, because lobelia helps to relax smooth muscles, it is included in many cough and cold remedies. Lobelia should be part of everyone's respiratory support protocol!

    8. ELECAMPANE

    elecamp-8.jpg

    Elecampane has been used by Native Americans for many years to clear out excess mucus that impairs lung function. It is known as a natural antibacterial agent for the lungs, helping to lessen infection particularly for people who are prone to lung infections like bronchitis. Herbal practitioners often recommend one teaspoon of the herb per cup of boiling water, drunk three times daily for two to three weeks but elecampane is also available in tincture format for ease.

    9. EUCALYPTUS

    eucalyp-9.jpg

    Native to Australia, eucalyptus isn't just for Koala bears! Aborigines, Germans, and Americans have all used the refreshing aroma of eucalyptus to promote respiratory health and soothe throat irritation. Eucalyptus is a common ingredient in cough lozenges and syrups and its effectiveness is due to a compound called cineole. Cineole has numerous benefits -- it's an expectorant, can ease a cough, fights congestion, and soothes irritated sinus passages. As an added bonus, because eucalyptus contains antioxidants, it supports the immune system during a cold or other illness.

    10. MULLEIN

    mullein-10.jpg

    Both the flowers and the leaves of the mullein plant are used to make an herbal extract that helps strengthen the lungs. Mullein is used by herbal practitioners to clear excess mucus from the lungs, cleanse the bronchial tubes, and reduce inflammation that is present in the respiratory tract. A tea can be made from one teaspoon of the dried herb to one cup of boiled water. Alternatively, you can take a tincture form of this herb.

    11. LUNGWORT

    luingwort-11.jpg

    Lungwort is a tree-growing lichen that actually resembles lung tissue in appearance. However, this natural remedy doesn't just look the part. As early as the 1600s, lungwort has been used to promote lung and respiratory health and clear congestion. Pulmonaria selections come in all kinds so seek an herbologist for direction. Lungwort also contains compounds that are powerfully effective against harmful organisms that affect respiratory health.

    12. CHAPARRAL

    chapparal-12.jpg

    Chaparral, a plant native to the southwest, has been appreciated by the Native Americans for lung detoxification and respiratory support. Chaparral contains powerful antioxidants that resist irritation and NDGA which is known to fight histamine response. NDGA inhibits aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis (the energy-producing ability) of cancer cells. Chaparral is also an herb that fights harmful organisms. The benefits of chaparral are most available in a tincture extraction but chaparral tea may support respiratory problems by encouraging an expectorant action to clear airways of mucus.

    13. SAGE

    Sage's textured leaves give off a heady aroma, which arises from sage's essential oils. These oils are the source of the many benefits of sage tea for lung problems and common respiratory ailments. Sage tea is a traditional treatment for sore throats and coughs. The rich aromatic properties arising from sage's volatile oils of thujone, camphor, terpene and salvene can be put to use by inhaling sage tea's vapors to dispel lung disorders and sinusitis. Alternatively, brew a strong pot of sage tea and place it into a bowl or a vaporizer.

    14. PEPPERMINT

    Peppermint, and peppermint oil, contains menthol -- a soothing ingredient known to relax the smooth muscles of the respiratory tract and promote free breathing. Dried peppermint typically contains menthol, menthone, menthyl acetate, menthofuran and cineol. Peppermint oil also contains small amounts of many additional compounds including limonene, pulegone, caryophyllene and pinene. Paired with the antihistamine effect of peppermint, menthol is a fantastic decongestant. Many people use therapeutic chest balms and other inhalants that contain menthol to help break up congestion. Additionally, peppermint is an antioxidant and fights harmful organisms.

    15. PLANTAIN LEAF

    plaintain-15.jpg

    With fruit that is similar in appearance to a banana, plantain leaf has been used for hundreds of years to ease cough and soothe irritated mucous membranes. Many of its active constituents show antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, as well as being anti-inflammatory and antitoxic. Clinical trials have found it favorable against cough, cold, and lung irritation. Plantain leaf has an added bonus in that it may help relieve a dry cough by spawning mucus production in the lungs.

    Seek the advice of an herbologist or Naturopathic Doctor on the preparation, appropriate dosages and frequency according to your condition. Many of the herbs above may also be combined for cumulative effects. All of the above are available in various forms, as nutritional supplements, tea blends and prepared oils. You can always grow your own as well to ensure your herbs are organic and ethically harvested.

  24. Battlefield America

    in World Economy

    Posted

     

     
     
    Luckily, not the whole world is going to hell...
     
    STARTING in 1999, we predicted a systemic economic collapse that would take place in the First World and would impact all other economies, writes Jeff Thomas of International Man at Casey Research.
     
    We began to list some of the "dominoes" that would fall as the collapse evolved and described that the "Great Unravelling", as we termed it, would take roughly ten years. At that time, we guesstimated that the first two of the dominoes, a real estate crash and subsequent stock market crash in the US, would begin in about 2005.
     
    We were premature in this prediction, as the first of the crashes did not occur until 2007. And, truth be told, we have frequently been incorrect in the timing of the other dominoes. Whilst the actual events have been predicted correctly, our timing has often been incorrect. In every such case, the prediction has been premature.
     
    Sadly, however, the prediction of the events of the collapse have been almost entirely correct. We also predicted that, just as a ball of string speeds up its rotation as it rolls along unravelling, so, too, the events of the Great Unravelling would occur more quickly as the situation worsened. 
     
    Additionally, the severity of the events would increase concurrently with the increase in velocity.
     
    However, none of the above was the result of gypsy fortune-telling, nor did it require the brightest of minds to work out. It is mostly based on the simple assumption that history repeats itself – that the world's leaders make the same mistakes in every era, because human nature never changes. Anyone who is willing to expend the effort to study history diligently and to be prepared to think in contrarian terms, may develop a meaningful insight into the events of the future.
     
    Back in 1999, of course, the very idea that the world was headed for serious economic calamity was considered ridiculous by most. The unfortunate fact is, most people do truly deal in the present, rarely questioning the future beyond what they consider to be the very next event. The truth of this statement is borne out by the fact that the great majority of people, who have already seen the first half of the Great Unravelling come to pass, still somehow cannot imagine the second half – the more disastrous half – as being in any way possible. Surely, somehow, the governments of the world will fix things.
     
    However, the number of people whose eyes have been opened seems to be growing, and many of them are asking what the collapse will look like as it unfolds. What will the symptoms be?
     
    Well, the primary events are fairly predictable: they would include major collapses in the bond and stock markets and possible sudden deflation (primarily of assets), followed by dramatic inflation, if not hyperinflation (primarily of commodities), followed by a crash of several major currencies, particularly the euro and the US Dollar.
     
    The secondary events will be less certain, but likely: increased unemployment, currency controls, protective tariffs, severe depression, etc.
     
    But, along the way, there will be numerous surprises – actions taken by governments that may be as unprecedented as they would be unlawful. Why? Because, again, such actions are the norm when a government finds itself losing its grip over the people it perceives as its minions. Here are a few:
     
    Travel Restrictions. This will begin with restrictions on foreign travel, including suspension/removal of passports. (This has begun in a small way in both the EU and US.) Later, travel restrictions will be extended within the boundaries of countries (highway checkpoints, etc.)
     
    Confiscation of wealth. The EU has instituted the confiscation of bank accounts, which can be expected to become an international form of governmental theft. This does not automatically mean that other assets, such as precious metals and real estate will also be confiscated, but it does mean that the barrier for confiscation has been eliminated. There is therefore no reason to assume that any asset is safe from any government that approves theft through bail-ins.
     
    Food Shortages. The food industry operates on very small profit margins and survives only as a result of quick payment of invoices. With dramatic inflation, marginal businesses (suppliers, wholesalers, and retailers) will fall by the wayside. The percentage of failing businesses will be dependent upon the duration and severity of the inflationary trend.
     
    Squatters Rebellions. A dramatic increase in the number of home and business foreclosures will result in homelessness for anyone whose debt exceeds his ability to pay – even those who presently appear to be well-off. As numbers rise significantly, a new homeless class will be created amongst the former middle class. As they become more numerous, large scale ownership of property may give way to large scale "possession" of property.
     
    Riots. These will likely happen spontaneously due to the above conditions, but if not, governments will create them to justify their desire for greater control of the masses.
     
    Martial Law. The US has already prepared for this, with the passing of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which many interpret as declaring the US to be a "battlefield". The NDAA allows the suspension of habeas corpus, indefinite detention, and the assumption that any resident may be considered an enemy combatant. Similar legislation may be expected in other countries that perceive martial law as a solution to civil unrest.
     
    The above list is purposely brief – a sampling of eventualities that, should they occur, will almost definitely come unannounced. As the decline unfolds, they will surely happen with greater frequency.
     
    But the value in projecting what the collapsing governments may do to their citizens is not merely an exercise in speculation. By anticipating the likelihood of any of the above, the individual may find that it would be prudent to turn off the game on television tonight and spend his time musing on the possibility of what he would do if any of the above events were to take place. (And, again, these projections are not mere fancy; they are actions typically taken by governments as their declines play out.)
     
    Most importantly, if the reader concludes that there is a significant percentage of likelihood that any of the above are coming his way, he would be well-advised to assess whether they are developments that he feels he could live with. If not, he might wish to assess how much time he has before these events become a reality and what he may do to sidestep their impact on him.
     
    Whilst, throughout the First World, the comment, "The whole world is going to Hell," is becoming common, in fact, this is not the case. Although some countries are in decline, others are on the rise. It is left to the reader to decide whether he will fall victim to coming events, or will use them as an opportunity to internationalise himself.

  25. United States sending help???

    in Iraq & Dinar Related News

    Posted · Edited by DumNDumer

    McJockey and SnowGlobe, you both bring up good points..... the greatest of which seems to be, whatever we do or don't do, its not going to be easy....

    Peace Keeping forces would be with the presumption that Maliki was indeed voted as the people's choice.... and for sake of timely intervention absent screwing things up even more with an external agenda, he or whomever is elected this spring would probably have to be regarded as people's choice apart from what might be the reality...

    It will cost money to be sure. The whole thing is/was always based upon money, and the decision to intervene now would likely be based upon which costs the least to corporate America (and therein the presumed good for America).... That's part of what's behind the NATO suggestion.... let all who have a vested interest pay some of the cost to at least bring stability to that area... I realize it might appear that I speak about a soverign nation as if it were a possession, however another way to look at it might be, we replaced a horrible dictator with democracy and left a severely destabilized region of growing violence,,, There is likely a corporate interest in stability (not to mention an investor interest)..... and is there likewise a moral interest we can or should correct, having miscalculated our time of departure, and leaving them at risk for the conflict confronting them?

     

    There is so much about it thats a delicate question with a fine line, to be sure.... And the continuum can go from,...... its not our country and problem to...... our intervention created the scenario we currently see as a result of premature departure.....

     

    It is NOT going to resolve its own.

    It seems strategically,

    we decide now to call for multi-lateral peace keeping intervention (and keep the costs down relatively speaking),

    or,

    decide we're going to sit this one out and see what happens, and then walk away.....

     

    My concern is the dumbazz grand standing idiots in Washington are going to try to get political mileage, delay a timely decision and ultimately cost up a couple billion more cause they are dinking around in meaningless ...... absolutely meaningless ..... finger pointing.... (what the frickin hellllll does that accomplish in terms of resolution??)

     

    Does anyone else think it interesting that the dominant political party in Syria, is the very party the US encouraged to make illegal and disban in Iraq (Baath)

     

    And while I am railing.... There is another thread out there talking about Senators who are blaming O for the recent Iraq violence.... I personally find what McCain and Graham are doing as despicable, deceptive and without any regard to the people they serve in this country.....

    #1 There is no need to blame anyone..... there were lots of people involved in decisions made about Iraq for over a decade. Not to mention, pointing a finger is really a no longer appreciate peacock dance that benefits only the dancers....

    #2 Both should be voted out of office as there are ONLY two alternatives:

    1.  They are so incompetent in preforming their job, there is clear dereliction of duty in their ignorance of a major treaty signed with Iraq in 2008., by an entirely different president, and which specified the time lines of withdrawal, or,
    2. They are purposely lying, knowing full well such a treaty was signed, and using the American people as their audience to the big dong dance they're doing in self serving their own need.

     

    And trust me there are a whole host of democrats that need to go as well, it just happens we're talking about this right now.....

     

    Razor, may you and yours be blessed in 2014

     

    McCain has not been exactly honest--and it is time he goes! Sounds like he is getting all his ideas from his wife and daughter, neither of those to seem to be on our side. We live in Arizona I know how it has become.

     

    We should have stayed in Iraq and done the job the correct way.
