a free ebook on living with less money- filled with tips :)

you know i must say that as much as i like hgtv sometimes i get very aggravated by the people on it. the other day i watched a show called house hunters (keep in mind i don't have television so i was watching it online so the episode may have been old).
i watched two episodes. in the first one the couple lived in a 5000 square foot home. it was shortly after the birth of their second child, they were looking for a new home that was bigger then what they had because they now had two boys and boys get very big very fast (their own words) and we will need more space. 5000 square feet for two adults and two babies isn't enough?! i have nine people in a 1700 square foot home. how dare they!
in the second episode, this couple was looking for a bigger home. they had three children. their complaint was none of the kitchens were big enough. the wife said "i don't cook but i need a big kitchen because i have children." they "settled" for a kitchen that was only 1700 square feet. may i remind you - that is the size of my whole house, kitchen included.
it does not bother me that these people are rich. honestly, it doesn't. what bothers me is the fact that some people can't figure out a way to live with what they consider less and some of us consider extremely blessed.

are you extremely blessed? do you even have a kitchen, dungeon like as mine must be according to those standards above. lol do you have a fridge full of food? soup cans in the cabinet? did you eat out any time in the last year? anywhere? then you did better than the children in mexico who live and eat in a dump. yes they eat the food they find in a dump. i read the story in a paper somewhere. wonder how big a kitchen they would need?

are you children poor put upon babies who have to share a room with each ? how dare you call yourselves loving parents!!! don't you know , the only way to continue growing up to become any sort of an adult means having total privacy from everyone and never having to share or compromise. now keep in mind , i would love to give each of my kids- all 7 of them- their own bedroom but i can't (only 1700 sq foot ya know!) and thus they learn to draw lines down the middle of the room and divvy up shelves and secretly hide favorite toys with each other. poor babies. yet they also have someone to giggle with in the dark (or fight with depending on the day) and someone to plot with on what time to get mom out of bed. who would they discuss those evil plans with if they didn't share a room?

how is summer schooling going? we school all year round so we can take days off when i want to :) we are reading a bio of gladys alyward, doing lots of science and keeping up with math and grammar. leave a comment telling me what you are doing,or if you took the summer off :)

Eating Mushrooms Slashes Risk of Breast Cancer by Two-Thirds
Wednesday, June 24, 2009 by: David Gutierrez, staff writer

(NaturalNews) Regular mushroom consumption can decrease a woman's risk of breast cancer by two thirds, researchers have found.

Scientists from the University of Western Australia in Perth conducted a study on 2,018 Chinese women, half of whom had been diagnosed with breast cancer. After adjusting for known cancer risk factors such as obesity, smoking, lack of exercise and lower education level, the researchers found that women who ate at least 10 grams of button mushrooms per day were 64 percent less likely to develop the disease. Women who ate dried mushrooms regularly also significantly reduced their cancer risk, although not by as much.

The study was published in the International Journal of Cancer.

This is not the first time scientists have found evidence of mushrooms' cancer-fighting properties. Laboratory studies have found that mushrooms may suppress the body's production of the sex hormone estrogen, much like the breast cancer drugs known as aromatose inhibitors. High estrogen levels are a well-known risk factor for breast cancer.

Mushrooms have also been found to strengthen the body's immune function and block tumor development. Mushroom extract has been shown to stop the growth of breast cancer cells, sparking an ongoing study into whether taking mushroom extract twice per month can prevent a recurrence of the disease.

While the Chinese study focused on the culinary mushrooms Agaricus bisporus (button mushrooms), the study on extracts is focusing on the traditional medicinal mushroom Phellinus linteus. In Eastern medicine, this mushroom is used to help refresh the body and lengthen lifespan.

Researchers believe that P. linteus acts by blocking the action of an enzyme known as AKT, which plays a role in controlling cell growth. Prior studies have suggested that the mushroom hampers the activity of skin, lung and prostate cancer cells. It reduces uncontrollable cell growth and blocks the development of blood vessels that keep tumors alive.

obama wants to FORCE vaccines on us

Readying Americans for Dangerous, Mandatory Vaccinations

tami's note= if you are allergic to eggs the flu shot can kill you, it contains eggs.

Readying Americans for Dangerous, Mandatory Vaccinations - by Stephen Lendman

At least three US federal laws should concern all Americans and suggest what may be coming - mandatory vaccinations for hyped, non-existant threats, like H1N1 (Swine Flu). Vaccines and drugs like Tamiflu endanger human health but are hugely profitable to drug company manufacturers.

The Project BioShield Act of 2004 (S. 15) became law on July 21, 2004 "to provide protections and countermeasures against chemical, radiological, or nuclear agents that may be used in a terrorist attack against the United States by giving the National Institutes of Health contracting flexibility, infrastructure improvements, and expediting the scientific peer review process, and streamlining the Food and Drug Administration approval process of countermeasures."

In other words, the FDA may now recklessly approve inadequately tested, potentially dangerous vaccines and other drugs if ever the Secretaries of Health and Human Services (HHS) or Defense (DOD) declare a national emergency, whether or not one exists and regardless of whether treatments available are safe and effective. Around $6 billion or more will be spent to develop, produce, and stockpile vaccines and other drugs to counteract claimed bioterror agents.

The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act slipped under the radar when George Bush signed it into law as part of the 2006 Defense Appropriations Act (HR 2863). It lets the HHS Secretary declare any disease an epidemic or national emergency requiring mandatory vaccinations. Nothing in the Act lists criteria that warrant a threat. Also potential penalties aren't specified for those who balk, but very likely they'd include quarantine and possible fines.

The HHS web site also says the Secretary may "issue a declaration....that provides immunity from tort liability (except for willful misconduct) for claims of loss caused, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from administration or use of (vaccine or other pharmaceutical) countermeasures to diseases, threats and conditions determined by the Secretary to constitute a present, or credible risk of a future public health emergency...."

The industry-run US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notoriously rushes inadequately tested drugs to market, putting their efficacy and safety into question, and turning those who use them into lab rats. It includes everyone if a mass vaccination is ordered on the mere claim of a public emergency - no proof required.

The Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act (S. 3678) is the other worrisome law, effective December 19, 2006. It amended "the Public Health Service Act with respect to public health security and all-hazards preparedness and response, and for other purposes." Even its supporters worry about issues of privacy, liability, and putting profits over public health. Critics express greater concerns about dangerous remedies for exaggerated or non-existant threats as well as mass hysteria created for political purposes.

At least one other measure is also worrisome - The Model State Emergency Health Powers Act (MSEHPA). So far it's just a proposal by the Center for Law and the Public's Health - "A Collaborative at Johns Hopkins and Georgetown Universities (as) a primary, international, national, state, and local resource on public health law (and) policy for public health practitioners, judges, academics, policymakers, and others."

MSEHPA is now "track(ing) legal responses to the emerging international response to the 2009 H1N1 (swine flu) outbreak, including declarations of public health emergency at the international, national, state, and local levels...." even though forensic evidence can't confirm any H1N1 deaths. No emergency exists anywhere, and reporting one is all hype to sell dangerous drugs to unsuspecting people globally.

On its web site, the ACLU says this about MSEHPA:

It's "written in a way that doesn't adequately protect citizens against the misuse of the tremendous powers that it would grant in an emergency. (It's) replete with civil liberties problems. Its three top flaws are that:

(1) It fails to include basic checks and balances (by) grant(ing) extraordinary emergency powers (that) should never go unchecked. (It) could have serious consequences for individuals' freedom, privacy, and equality."

(2) "It goes well beyond bioterrorism (with) an overbroad definition of 'public health emergency" that may be anything a local or national authority declares for any reason with no conclusive evidence for proof.

(3) "It lacks privacy protections (and) undercut(s) existing protections for sensitive medical information."

MSEHPA worries other organizations besides the ACLU, both conservative and progressive - including the Free Congress Foundation, American Legislative Exchange Council, conservative association of state legislators, Human Rights Campaign, and Health Privacy Project.

The Real Threat of Dangerous, Mandatory Vaccinations

In the wake of the hyped Swine Flu scare, media reports suggest mass vaccinations are coming. The May 6 Kimberly Kindy - Ceci Connolly Washington Post one, for example, headlined "US May Add Shots for Swine Flu to Fall Regimen" without saying they'll be mandatory but reading between the lines suggests the possibility this year or later.

The writers report that "The Obama administration is considering an unprecedented fall vaccination campaign" to include regular and Swine Flu shots, the latter because it's "spreading across the globe."

HHS' Dr. Robin Robinson said "We are moving forward with making a vaccine," and if the government proceeds with a national program, enough supply will be produced to provide two doses for all Americans with spokespersons like National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Anthony Fauci, claiming adverse reactions aren't to be expected and adding another shot for Swine Flu "should not present a problem."

The New York Times also hypes the scare with reports of city schools closed after unconfirmed Swine Flu cases, a few adult deaths blamed on H1N1 bringing the claimed total in the city to seven, and the World Health Organization (WHO) saying on June 3 that it's moving closer to declaring a worldwide (Level 6) Swine Flu pandemic - even though none exists.

With all the hype, misinformation, and willful lies WHO's Dr. Keiji Fukuda, in charge of flu, said only 117 deaths globally have been "blamed" on Swine Flu and any warning may include the caveat that the virus isn't very lethal. A more accurate statement would explain that no forensic evidence links any deaths to H1N1, and influenza annually kills about 30,000 people in America alone - something the major media never report or that scattered accounts of any type flu deaths worldwide are no cause for alarm or reason for scary headlines.

It's also unconscionable for the WHO, US and other nations' officials to spread lies, deception, and hysteria so major pharmaceutical companies can foist dangerous vaccines and other drugs on unsuspecting people, harming their health and making them vulnerable to later diseases and possible early deaths.

Massachusetts May Be A Forerunner of What's to Come

On April 28, the Massachusetts Senate unanimously passed a pandemic flu preparation bill that rises to the level of martial law. If approved by the House and signed into law, it will mandate among other measures:

-- "vaccination, treatment, examination, or testing of" all individuals involved in providing health care - as perhaps step one before ordering the same process for all state residents;

-- owners or occupiers of all premises "to permit entry into and investigation of the premises;"

-- closure, evacuation, and decontamination of all suspected facilities; and

-- restricting or prohibiting "assemblages of persons."

Other states may be planning similar measures as precursors to mandatory nationwide vaccinations and overall suspension of civil liberty protections.

Adverse Vaccination Effects on Gulf War Troops

Before deploying to the Persian Gulf in 1990 - 91 (and thereafter to the present), all US troops got a standard series of inoculations against infectious diseases - the same ones given to all US citizens traveling to the region. After arriving, 150,000 also got anthrax vaccinations and 8000 botulinum toxoid ones even though concerns were raised about adverse long-term health consequences.

A National Academy of Sciences' Institute of Medicine (IOM) study was conducted to assess them with results released in September 2000. In December 1997, the Department of Defense (DOD) announced that all US military forces would receive anthrax vaccinations. The Anthrax Vaccine Immunization Program (AVIP) began in March 1998 even though IOM found little published peer-reviewed scientific information on its safety.

In its study, IOM reported evidence of an association between vaccinations studied and transient acute common health effects, including redness, swelling, and fever commonly associated with other vaccinations. However, conclusive proof of long-term problems wasn't determined - likely because study findings were skewed not to find them. More on that below.

IOM also studied botulinum toxoid vaccines and found evidence of an association between the vaccine and transient acute local and systemic effects similar to anthrax vaccinations. Again, conclusive proof of long-term adverse health effects wasn't found - another very dubious conclusion as evidence below explains.

Military personnel usually get multiple vaccinations. IOM studied their effects but didn't prove or disprove any long-term adverse effects. However several independent studies of British Gulf War veterans found some link between multiple vaccinations and later health problems.

Gary Matsumoto is a New York-based award-winning investigative journalist. His 2004 book, "Vaccine A: The Covert Government Experiment That's Killing Our Soldiers and Why GIs are Only the First Victims" took sharp issue with IOM results and the Pentagon's denial of Gulf War syndrome.

Investigating the shadowy vaccination development world, he discovered US military-employed doctors and scientists conducted secret medical experiments on US citizens in violation of the Nuremberg Code and fundamental medical ethics.

For its part, Nuremberg established legal medical experimental standards now incorporated into ethical medical codes, including:

-- requiring voluntary consent of human subjects without coercion, fraud, deceit, and with full disclosure of known risks;

-- experiments should avoid "all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury;"

-- experiments should never be conducted if there's "an a priori reason to believe death or disabling injury will occur;"

-- risk "should never exceed that determined by the humanitarian importance of the problem to be solved..;" and

-- experiments should be terminated if there's reason to believe they'll cause "injury, disability, or death to the experimental subject."

According to Matsumoto, the Pentagon violated these and other standards, betrayed the troops, and the fundamental duty of military and civilian leaders to protect them. Since at least 1987, biowarfare development trumped the welfare of tens of thousands of GIs used as human guinea pigs for inoculation with experimental unlicensed anthrax vaccines containing squalene - an oil-based adjuvant (to enhance immunity) known for decades to cause severe autoimmune diseases in lab animals, yet administered involuntarily without disclosure of its harmful effects to human health. Matsumoto wrote:

"The unethical experiments detailed in this book are ongoing, with little prospect of being self-limiting because they have been shielded from scrutiny and public accountability by national security concerns." He suggested the "writing (was) on the wall" of what's to come with prospects now it may be soon.

"When UCLA Medical School's Michael Whitehouse and Frances Beck injected squalene combined with other materials into rats and guinea pigs back in the 1970s, few oils were more effective at causing the animal versions of arthritis and multiple sclerosis." In 1999, immunologist Dr. Johnny Lorentzen at Sweden's Karolinska Institute found that on injection, an "otherwise benign molecule like squalene can stimulate a self-destructive immune response," even though it occurs naturally in the body.

Other research shows that squalene is the experimental anthrax vaccine ingredient that caused devastating autoimmune diseases and deaths for many Gulf War veterans from the US, UK, and Australia, yet it continues in use today and for new vaccines development in labs. There's a "close match between the squalene-induced diseases in animals and those observed in humans injected with this oil: rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus."

Other autoimmune diseases are also linked to humans injected with squalene. "There are now data in more than two dozen peer-reviewed scientific papers, from ten different laboratories in the US, Europe, Asia and Australia, documenting that squalene-based adjuvants can induce autoimmune diseases in animals...observed in mice, rats, guinea pigs and rabbits. Sweden's Karolinska Institute has demonstrated that squalene alone can induce the animal version of rheumatoid arthritis. The Polish Academy of Sciences has shown that in animals, squalene alone can produce catastrophic injury to the nervous system and the brain. The University of Florida Medical School has shown that in animals, squalene alone can induce production of antibodies specifically associated with systemic lupus erythematosus."

Micropaleontologist Dr. Viera Scheibner conducted research into the adverse effects of adjuvants in vaccines and wrote:

Squalene "contributed to the cascade of reactions called "Gulf War syndrome. (GIs developed) arthritis, fibromyalgia, lymphadenopathy, rashes, photosensitive rashes, malar rashes, chronic fatigue, chronic headaches, abnormal body hair loss, non-healing skin lesions, aphthous ulcers, dizziness, weakness, memory loss, seizures, mood changes, neuropsychiatric problems, anti-thyroid effects, anaemia, elevated ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, ALS, Raynaud's phenomenon, Sjorgren's syndrome, chronic diarrhea, night sweats and low-grade fever."

Matsumoto's book includes numerous case studies of GIs afflicted with one or more of the above syndromes, their devastating effects, and the outlandish US government reaction - failing to acknowledge their existence or a connection between them and administered vaccines. Also denying the effects of other toxic Gulf theater exposures (like depleted uranium) as well as withholding meaningful treatments or protocols.

US Army Captain George L. Skypeck spoke eloquently for many when he said:

"Was the character of my valor less intense than those at Lexington? Was the pain of my wounds any less severe than those at Normandy? And was my loneliness any less sorrowful than those at Inchon? Then why am I forgotten amonst those remembered as 'heros?' "

If mass vaccinations are ordered, millions of Americans may ask: Why do you keep using unsafe vaccines and other drugs when clear evidence shows their dangers? Why do you jeopardize all Americans by unleashing a future plague of serious illnesses, diseases, and disabilities? Why have you willfully and maliciously ruined my health?

Immunologist Dr. Pamela Asa first recognized autoimmune diseases showing up in GIs that mirrored those in lab animals injected with oil formulated squalene adjuvants. By 1997, hundreds of millions of dollars had been spent testing vaccines containing them, in animal studies since 1988 and human clinical trials since 1991 - by leading research institutes like NIH, the National Cancer Institute, and the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

According to Matsumoto, today, "Squalene adjuvants are a key ingredient in a whole new generation of vaccines intended for mass immunization around the globe" even though researchers at Tulane Medical School and the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research proved "that the immune system responds specifically to the squalene molecule."

The immune system "see(s) and recognizes it as an oil molecule native to the body. Squalene is not just a molecule found in a knee or elbow - it is found throughout the nervous system and the brain." When injected in the body, the immune system attacks it as an enemy to be eliminated. Eating and digesting squalene isn't a problem. But injecting it "galvanize(s) the immune system into attacking it, which can produce self-destructive cross reactions against the same molecule in the places where it occurs naturally in the body - and where it is critical to the health of the nervous system."

Once self-destruction begins, it doesn't stop as the body keeps making the molecule that the immune system is trained to attack and destroy.

Immunologist Dr. Bonnie Dunbar also did extensive research on hepatitis B-inflicted illnesses and found similar autoimmune processes involved in molecular mimicry in people with devastating neuroimmune syndromes after getting vaccine injections.

Matsumoto says "Squalene is a kind of trigger for (a) real biological weapon," what Soviet researchers called "a biological time bomb!!" and Matsumoto says is "the immune system." When its "full repertoire of cells and antibodies (attack) tissues they are supposed to protect, the results can be catastrophic." He and Dr. Pam Asa conclude that "Oil adjuvants are the most insidious chemical weapon ever devised," including ones with squalene - something the Soviets knew could be used as a weapon in the 1980s.

Matsumoto says that "the real problem with using squalene (isn't) that it mimics a molecule found in the body; it is the same molecule. So what American scientists conceived as a vaccine booster (or what's now being developed in labs) was another 'nano-bomb,' instigating chronic, unpredictable and debilitating disease. When the NIH....argued that squalene would be safe because it is native to the body, just the opposite was true," and, of course, still is. "Squalene's natural presence in the body made it one of the most dangerous molecules ever injected into man" and using it in vaccines is outlandish and criminal.

So why does Washington sanction its use? According to Matsumoto: "scientists in the United States are now literally invested in squalene. Army scientists who developed the second generation anthrax vaccine have reputations to protect and licensing fees to reap (as well as) worldwide rights to develop and commercialize the new recombinant vaccine for anthrax" and ones for other health threats.

Disturbingly, "Many of the cutting-edge vaccines currently in development by the NIH and its corporate partners contain squalene in one formulation or another. There is squalene in the prototype recombinant vaccines for HIV, malaria, herpes, influenza (including the swine strain), cytomegalovirus and human papillomavirus." Some of these "are intended for mass immunization(s) around the globe" and that possibility should terrify everyone enough to refuse any mandate or doctor's prescription to take them.

Another problem is that "Autoimmunity (takes) years to diagnose" because early symptoms (headaches, joint pain, etc.) are so vague they can easily be from other causes.

From inception, vaccines have always been dangerous enough for some experts to call them biological weapons undermining health, manipulating and crippling the immune system, and creating the possibility of future debilitating diseases. So Big Pharma's solution is new, more potent genetically engineered vaccines and drugs that may end up harming or killing many who take them, especially people with weakened immune systems.

Matsumoto and others sounded the alarm to alert everyone to avoid these poisons masquerading as protective drugs. In fact, they benefit only the bottom lines of companies that manufacture them and scientists reaping generous royalties.

cool!

ok i was given this award by preparing for our children's future
and in return i need to list 10 honest things about myself. well here goes!
1-i am addicted to coffee! 2 or more pots a day. :)
2-i abhor mcdonalds food becuz of it's ingredients but i crave it when i am pg. or other times.
3-i will sit my kids in front of a video if i need "time away"
4-i allow my girls to play with barbie. we have standards and they only play house with them.
5-i actually check my blogger stats often!
6-i appeared on bozo the clown as a kid.
7-i was born with 2 thumbs on 1 hand. it was removed when i was a baby.
8-i have been known to leave my laundry in the basket for a few days a time.
9-i have a lot of gray hairs bit i don't color them. i have been told i should lol
10-i wish i was like michelle dugger! can you imagine being so soft spoken and patient with that many kids? my "idol"!

where and when did the church go wrong?

this is not just about abortion so please read all the way down.

do you remember hearing about the flood? the one where noah built an ark? the one God commanded because of the evil in the world?


does this story ring familiar to you?
God heeded the prayers of the Jews and helped the Jews to "utterly destroy" the Canaanites. Later, God told the Jews that they would leave "no survivors" (including women and children) from among the whole people when they battled the followers of King Og of Bashan. In between those two, the Jews battled the followers of King Sihon of Heshbon, who "God had given him a resistant spirit and stubborn determination" so that he would not surrender his people, and for "even the women and children; there was not a single survivor." (Numbers, Chapter 21; and Deuteronomy, Chapters 2 and 3.)

what about this story?
When the Jews fought the Midianites, the Jewish army killed all of the men, but brought back all of the women and children to Moses, who was then furious at this disobedience of God. Moses ordered all of the male children killed, and all of the females who were not virgins. 32,000 virgin females remained alive; all of the other Midianite people were killed. It is unclear from the text whether or not 32 of these virgins were sacrificed to God (human sacrifice). The Jews enslaved all of the virgin females who lived. (Numbers, Chapters 25 and 31.)


there are many more stories like this. God would command his people to destroy whole nations of people because of their disobedience. it says in the new testament that God is the same yesterday today and forever. so God is still capable of commanding the destroying of whole nations.

why then should we "cry" over the loss of george tiller? the man who murdered thousands of innocent babies. i don't.
you know what i do cry over? (besides the babies) the state of the church. george tiller went to church for many years. he truly honestly with his whole heart believed what he was doing was ok and taht he was helping people. he was looked upon as some sort of hero. HOW CAN THIS BE?
do you know how partial birth abortion is performed? look it up. i can't write it here, i have young readers. please girls, talk with your parents before you study this subject!

a partial birth abortion is performed in the same way you would need to kill my 3 yr old. can you imagine killing a 3 yr old?

do you know why most abortions are performed? 93% are done because of the inconvenience a child would cause to a mother. not because of rape or incest or any other clever title we give it to hide the fact that we are murdering babies.

sometimes my 3 yr old is an inconvenience.

back to the church- HOW DARE A CHURCH THAT CLAIMS TO FOLLOW THE BIBLE ACCEPT THIS?
where has the church gone wrong? what has happened to looking at a baby and seeing life? seeing an innocent who deserved to be shielded from such horrors in the world? why have the christians pussyfooted around and not stood up? forming a prayer chain outside a building isn't enough! has it stopped the problem? NO.

do i suggest you get a gun and kill a doctor? no. but am i so certain that it is the horrible act that so many people make it out to be? no. sorry if that offends you. mudering babies offends me.

did you know that when hitler was rounding up the jews, to take them to to a concentration camp and murder them, that the train carrying these innocent people stopped outside a church? as expected these people clamored desperately for help. the "christians" inside were annoyed at the noise disturbing their singing,so they sang louder. christians?! what true person of God would not have rushed out and released these captives?

is this when the church went wrong?

did you know in the new testament paul lays down a list of "rules" that churches are to follow? one of those rules is that a church help financially a widow over the age of 60. a widow under the age of 60 is told to remarry and guide the home. yes that's right - if there is no family to help the widow, whether because they don't have the money to help with or because there is simply no family members to do so, the church is to help her financially. do you know of any churches today that do that?

there are many other examples that i could cite here but i won't. study your bible yourself. what i am trying to get at with this post is that the church has failed the people. it condones things that God says in His Word that He abhors. it allows things, that God calls sin, to be honored such as gay pastors. while i sin daily, i don't believe it is right to "put me on a pedestal" and reward me for those sins. we are told in His Word we are to confess our sins to one another and pray for each other. giving someone a high position of authority over those needing guidance while they are "flaunting" their sin doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

when and where did the church go wrong? why are things that are so clearly against God's Word taken lightly or not spoken of at all? they should be condemned, not condoned. they should be taught against not taught tolerance of. where did are public school system go so wrong? we used to pray in school and the bible was a textbook - now we are not allowed to have a bible in school and we certainly aren't taught from it! as a matter of fact we are taught just the opposite.

look at hollywood. look at the movies made. people often don't wear clothes. where did God's standards of morality and His stance on nakedness- (check out the book of isaiah)
where are God's people? standing against this insiduous thing? remember ladies- satan is subtle. for awhile we accept it in movies then we accept it in our real lives.
where and when did the church go wrong? the church is not a building it is people. where have the people gone wrong? what are you doing today to take a stand for God's Word?

$100,000 to $16,000!

a few tips i learned when our income dropped from $100,000 to $16,000

first of all- you DO learn to live without.

walmart bags make good "baggies"

use a vacuum cleaner bag 2x- empty it and staple it back together.

potatos and beans and rice are your staples.

i cook pinto beans in the crocpot and then smash and fry them for bean burritos. 1 bag for $1 buys several meals!

don't buy seasonings! no more packets of chili or taco seasonings! buy walmart brands of seasonings and mix your own. 50 cents a bottle and you get several meals from each one instead of $1 for 1 meal.

vinegar cleans floors, windows and everything else including as a fabric softner.. you can buy it with food stamps.

baking soda cleans toilets. food stamp purchase again.

NO JUNK FOOD ALLOWED!

soups are cheap and use up leftovers.

fans instead of air conditioner.

no cable or web if you can stand it.

library for books and dvds.

free mag subs are the only kind i get and i get 34 a month!!!! good housekeeping and more :)

dollar stores are NOT cheaper than walmart. nothing is. trust me.

bake your own bread, tortillas, crackers, cookies etc. you LEARN how.

$1.47 buys a book light at walmart and taht saves using the more expensive lights when you are reading in bed. i managed to shave $40 off my elec. bill by doing things like this!!!

clothes line only. no dryer

only tea and water to drink. no juices or sodas- they are horrible for ya anyway. walmart teabags taste fine and sometimes lipton is cheaper anway. i don't know why.

fill your freezer with filled water and milk bottles to fill in the gaps and make it run more effiencently, thus saving $

grow food, including herbs.

cloth diapers. not the gerber kind. they are too thin! i made my covers out of towels and flannel blankets.

do freebies and contests and surveys. i would spend 2 hrs a day "working" at thsi. i received several hundred dollars in checks and gift cards by doing this. i also got full size bottles of cleaners, shampoos, makeup, toilet paper, paper towels, diapers and much much more by doing this. i have more expensive razors than i know what to do with and at one time had 30 tubes of colgate waiting for me to use! i have won 85 contests in a little over 1 year. from amazon gift cards to tshirts to bags of chips. bath kits, cleaning products, books and coffee. 85 wins ladies!!! it's worth it.

buy solid colr tshirts so either boy or girl can wear them. i shop only thrift stores for clothes. we are dresses only (or skirts with those tshirts!)

a bike is cheaper than a car and faster than walking. our car was repoed so i know. :)

heavy blankets at nite lets you keep the heater off longer.

booksamartitan.com- free schoolbooks. don't be choosy.

clip coupons and do the cvs thing. i spent $3 on $101 worth of items there. merry christmas to my teen daughter- plenty of beauty items!

dawn dishwashing liquid cleans floors , washes your hair, and does the dishes and laundry :)

no more cold cereal- cook oatmeal or brown rice.

no cell phones!

yard sales!

time your showers so you don't waste energy and water.

don't buy detangler- mix conditioner and water in a spray bottle and use that.

make pledge for your table- lemon juice and canola oil.

for fun- dairy queen has half price drinks from 2-5. $1.80 buys 2 large sodas- refills are free- and they have a playground. nice cheap outing. mcdonalds has cheap kiddie ice cream cones and a playground too.

remove buttons from throw clothes and use them on other clothes.

use jelly jars as drinking glasses.walmart gives eyeglass cleaner totally free all year. :)

walmart sells silverware for $1 for 6 pieces. i know- they aren't great but.....

sign up for magazine reader panels- they often send great gifts!! i have received a full size box of tide, a laundry bag, a jacket, makeup and more.

make bread crumbs to stretch a meatloaf--smash bread crusts leftover in a baggie with a rolling pin.

when i think of more i'll tell ya!

cereal is toxic?!

Packaged Cereals

Dry breakfast cereals are produced by a process called extrusion. Cereal makers first create a slurry of the grains and then put them in a machine called an extruder. The grains are forced out of a little hole at high temperature and pressure. Depending on the shape of the hole, the grains are made into little o's, flakes, animal shapes, or shreds (as in Shredded Wheat or Triscuits), or they are puffed (as in puffed rice). A blade slices off each little flake or shape, which is then carried past a nozzle and sprayed with a coating of oil and sugar to seal off the cereal from the ravages of milk and to give it crunch.

In his book Fighting the Food Giants, Paul Stitt has tells us that the extrusion process used for these cereals destroys most of the nutrients in the grains. It destroys the fatty acids; it even destroys the chemical vitamins that are added at the end. The amino acids are rendered very toxic by this process. The amino acid lysine, a crucial nutrient, is especially denatured by extrusion. This is how all the boxed cereals are made, even the ones sold in the health food stores. They are all made in the same way and mostly in the same factories. All dry cereals that come in boxes are extruded cereals.

The only advances made in the extrusion process are those that will cut cost regardless of how these will alter the nutrient content of the product. Cereals are a multi-billion dollar business, one that has created huge fortunes.

With so many people eating breakfast cereals, you might expect to find some studies on the effect of extruded cereals on animals or humans. Yet, there are no published studies at all in the scientific literature.
The Rat Experiments

Let me tell you about two studies which were not published. The first was described by Paul Stitt who wrote about an experiment conducted by a cereal company in which four sets of rats were given special diets. One group received plain whole wheat, water and synthetic vitamins and minerals. A second group received puffed wheat (an extruded cereal), water and the same nutrient solution. A third set was given only water. A fourth set was given nothing but water and chemical nutrients. The rats that received the whole wheat lived over a year on this diet. The rats that got nothing but water and vitamins lived about two months. The animals on water alone lived about a month. But the company's own laboratory study showed that the rats given the vitamins, water and all the puffed wheat they wanted died within two weeks---they died before the rats that got no food at all. It wasn't a matter of the rats dying of malnutrition. Autopsy revealed dysfunction of the pancreas, liver and kidneys and degeneration of the nerves of the spine, all signs of insulin shock.

Results like these suggested that there was something actually very toxic in the puffed wheat itself! Proteins are very similar to certain toxins in molecular structure, and the pressure of the puffing process may produce chemical changes, which turn a nutritious grain into a poisonous substance.

Another unpublished experiment was carried out in the 1960s. Researchers at University of Michigan were given 18 laboratory rats. They were divided into three groups: one group received corn flakes and water; a second group was given the cardboard box that the corn flakes came in and water; the control group received rat chow and water. The rats in the control group remained in good health throughout the experiment. The rats eating the box became lethargic and eventually died of malnutrition. But the rats receiving the corn flakes and water died before the rats that were eating the box! (The last corn flake rat died the day the first box rat died.) But before death, the corn flake rats developed schizophrenic behavior, threw fits, bit each other and finally went into convulsions. The startling conclusion of this study is that there was more nourishment in the box than there was in the corn flakes.

This experiment was actually designed as a joke, but the results were far from funny. The results were never published and similar studies have not been conducted.

Most of America eats this kind of cereal. In fact, the USDA is gloating over the fact that children today get the vast majority of their important nutrients from the nutrients added to these boxed cereals.

Cereals sold in the health food stores are made by the same method. It may come as a shock to you, but these whole grain extruded cereals are probably more dangerous than those sold in the supermarket, because they are higher in protein and it is the proteins in these cereals that are so denatured by this type of processing.

There are no published studies on the effects of these extruded grains on animals or humans, but I did find one study in a literature search that described the microscopic effects of extrusion on the proteins. "Zeins," which comprise the majority of proteins in corn, are located in spherical organelles called protein bodies. During extrusion, these protein bodies are completely disrupted and deformed. The extrusion process breaks down the organelles, disperses the proteins and the proteins become toxic. When they are disrupted in this way, you have absolute chaos in your food, and it can result in a disruption of the nervous system.

book review time!

After many years of writing in her prayer journal, missionary Sarah Young decided to "listen" to God with pen in hand, writing down whatever she believed He was saying to her. It was awkward at first, but gradually her journaling changed from monologue to dialogue. She knew her writings were not inspired as Scripture is, but they were helping her grow closer to God. Others were blessed as she shared her writings, until people all over the world were using her messages. They are written from Jesus’ point of view, thus the title Jesus Calling. It is Sarah’s fervent prayer that our Savior may bless you with His presence and His peace in ever deeper measure.

get out your paper and pen.
sit down and pray.
listen to what God says to you.
write it down.

that's the premise of this small in size daily devotional. you can hear God speaking to the author, as she writes down the very thoughts He gives her. then you can apply them to your own life.

a very moving book that stirs you to tears when you find how each Word God gives sarah fits right into your life too.

I heartily recommend this to anyone who is truly seeking the face of God and His knowledge, for anyone who wants to hear God speak directly to them. For anyone who wants to hear God's kind and loving words, as a Father speaks to His child.

blunt but my blog

i was taken to task by someone for my stance on God's grace when i wrote this article
i attempted to print her response but i hit delete trash instead of the actual go to trash button (yes i was that angry to start with!) and i can't retrieve it.

really? did you miss my point? you really think that this family had God's grace upon them? really?
while i understand praying for their salvation and i believe that anyone can change with God, i don't for one second believe that was the case here. they had attended this church for a long time. they strongly held the belief that they were doing the right thing by murdering children. their church apparently condoned this. their message to the world, after losing this husband and father , was that now the women had lost their only hope for help in murdering their babies. THAT was where their concern was!!!! that was their published statement!


this is the sign that george tiller placed outside his office



did you know his wife performed an album of religious songs, including the Lord's prayer? this shocks me!

did you notice that george tiller's murder occured shortly after this- Wealthy Abortion Provider’s Family Dies In Mysterious Plane Crash in Catholic Cemetery Next to Memorial to Unborn do you think God's vengeance plays a part? do you think the end times will be gentle? that God's wrath will be a walk in the park for those who don't accept Christ? Mat 25:32
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
do you think hell is a place of relief? do you think george never had a chance to repent? does his family sound repentative?

do i agree with murdering him? well i wouldn't have done it. do i think that if he was in church- a reformed lutheran church- that after all these years he would have heard the plan of salvation many times? do i think he heard it from operation rescue, which has prayed for and talked with him for years? yep! on both accounts.

if he was in the business of killing 2 yr olds - who would have to be killed the same way btw, would you feel differently? would you feel stronger about it? would you push harder to stop it?
