Floating Objects on Sound


I have read stories of missionaries that tell of levitating large stones with trumpets and drums.

Here is a video of scientists doing it now.

Looks much higher and easier than with magnets.

Powerful Microscope



A field ion microscope (FIM) image of a very sharp tungsten needle. The small round features are individual atoms. The lighter colored elongated features are traces captured as atoms moved during the imaging process (approximately 1 second).


Thats what I call one powerful microscope, I mean you can see the individual atoms?

Wow!

Real Life Hulk


Man lifts car off pinned cyclist

"I didn't believe what I saw," Boyle said Thursday. "I didn't believe it until my wife said something, and I was just like, 'Oh my God.' You think things like that only happen in movies."

Boyle and his wife got out of their car and ran over to the Camaro where he said he saw the front tires lifted off the ground.

Living Fossil


The first pictures showing a live specimen of a rodent species once thought to have been extinct for 11 million years have been taken by a retired Florida State University professor and a Thai wildlife biologist.



The "living fossil," looks like a small squirrel or tree shrew.

Scientists have nicknamed it the Laotian rock rat. The creature is not really a rat but a member of a rodent family once known only from fossils.

Another "living fossil" found.

I love stories like this and can't wait until they find a living dinosaur.

Islam and Da vinci


Mohammed Yusef, the founder of Invicta Capital in Great Britain, is using a government tax-incentive program to fund the movie version of the anti-Christian "Da Vinci Code" novel for Sony Pictures.

The British government thus is helping Mohammed to conduct a jihad against Christians by promoting the Bible bashing, anti-Christian propaganda in "The Da Vinci Code."...

On the same note here is a link that shows protesters in London after the Mohammed cartoon incident.

Funny they finance blasphemy of Jesus Christ and cry "Off with their heads" over an illustration. They love only their freedom.

Noah's Ark models


I love seeing these models, it gives you a taste of just how big a boat it really was.

I found this site and was surprised to see a modeler that I knew personally, Joe O'Connell.

He has a room in his house dedicated to building ark models. He calls it "the ark room".

I can't remember how many he says he has made but every time he builds one some one end up buying from him.

Joe is an all around neat guy and I love talking to him about creation.

Pyramid Found in Europe


VISOKO, Bosnia-Herzegovina - Researchers in Bosnia on Wednesday unearthed the first solid evidence that an ancient pyramid lies hidden beneath a massive hill — a series of geometrically cut stone slabs that could form part of the structure's sloping surface.

Researchers believe the structure itself is a colossal 220 meters (722 feet) high, or a third taller than Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza.

Earlier research on the hill, known as Visocica, found that it has perfectly shaped, 45-degree slopes pointing toward the cardinal points, and a flat top. Under layers of dirt, workers discovered a paved entrance plateau, entrances to tunnels and large stone blocks.

They believe other pyramids are nearby and that they are connected by the tunnels.

Interesting find and I look forward to when they have all uncovered.

Easter Bunny Caught!


I caught the Easter bunny and he promised me not to deliver any eggs or candy until we properly celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Happy Resurrection Day!

Scientist Wants to Kill 90% of The Population


Pianka is his name and he began by laying out his concerns about how human overpopulation is ruining the Earth. He presented a doomsday scenario in which he claimed that the sharp increase in human population since the beginning of the industrial age is devastating the planet. He warned that quick steps must be taken to restore the planet before it's too late.

“We're no better than bacteria!”

Professor Pianka said the Earth as we know it will not survive without drastic measures. Then, and without presenting any data to justify this number, he asserted that the only feasible solution to saving the Earth is to reduce the population to 10 percent of the present number.

He explained. That, disease offered the most efficient and fastest way to kill the billions that must soon die if the population crisis is to be solved.

His favorite candidate for eliminating 90 percent of the world's population is airborne Ebola ( Ebola Reston ), because it is both highly lethal and it kills in days, instead of years.

When Pianka finished his remarks, the audience applauded. It wasn't merely a smattering of polite clapping that audiences diplomatically reserve for poor or boring speakers. It was a loud, vigorous and enthusiastic applause.

“You know, the bird flu's good, too.” They laughed again when he proposed, with a discernable note of glee in his voice that, “We need to sterilize everybody on the Earth, Smarter people have fewer kids.”

After noting that the audience did not represent the general population, a questioner asked, "What kind of reception have you received as you have presented these ideas to other audiences that are not representative of us?"

Pianka replied, "I speak to the converted!"


With this, the questioning was over. Immediately almost every scientist, professor and college student present stood to their feet and vigorously applauded the man who had enthusiastically endorsed the elimination of 90 percent of the human population. Some even cheered. Dozens then mobbed the professor at the lectern to extend greetings and ask questions.

I think if he and his followers are genuine and sincere in their beliefs then they should set the example, volunteer, go first.

But no they think it should be everyone else but them.

Where is our homeland security on this one?

This sounds like a terrorist threat to me.

A Total Solar Eclipse


When the moon passes in front of the sun and blocks it completely—it is a total eclipse.

To see a total solar eclipse, you have to be in just the right spot on the earth.

When you look up in the sky at the sun and the moon, you notice a strange coincidence—both look the same size in the sky.

Now, they're not really the same size.

The sun's diameter is actually 400 times the moon's diameter. But, you must also take into account that the sun is also 400 times further away from the earth, reducing its apparent size to the same as the moon's.

It is thought that Earth is the only planet in the universe that this would occur.

Because we can view total eclipses we can study the Sun's corona and other things that we otherwise would not be able to.

Hmmm...it is like it designed that way.

Atheists Day


With the approach of the atheists national holiday I thought you might find these figures interesting.

Here in America Christians have to fight to hold on to every right that our country was founded on.

The facts listed on this link are staggering, 3-9% of our population are atheists or agnostics.

How do they get such a large voice in policies and restrict our freedoms when 91% or higher belive in God?

Because the majority (believers in God) do or say nothing.

We say nothing, do nothing and care little until it is to late.

It is a shame. James sums up Jesus words when he says "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves."Jam 1:22

We are hearers and not doers.

Brooklyn Bridge Houses Cold War Supplies


"There, in the musty dark, the workers found a Cold War-era cache of provisions to have been used in the wake of a nuclear attack: some 350,000 packaged crackers, paper blankets, metal drums for water and medical supplies."
It is pretty neat to find something that you hid and forgot you did.

I think they will find it was hidden there for some elite people or some city official hid it for themselves or surly they would have known it was there.

Was it in a secret room or just one nobody went in?

Whenever I think I might find something like this it turns out to be like Geraldo Rivera opening Al Capone's vault.

Artificial Muscles


"Scientists have developed artificial, super-strength muscles powered by alcohol and hydrogen, which could eventually be used to make much better prosthetic limbs. The artificial muscles are 100 times more powerful than the body's own, and researchers believe they could be modified one day to use in 'exoskeletons', to give superhuman strength to certain professions such as firefighters, soldiers and astronauts."

I wonder if you will be able to rent one for jobs around the house?

I can think of several times one of these would have come in handy.

Dinosaurs Don't Have Feathers


Evolutionists found a dinosaur that they thought should have feathers.

Their thinking is that the dinosaurs became birds and flew away (see Jurassic Park).


The biggest and heaviest animals became some of the smallest a light weight animals! Good theory.

Anyway here are some of their excuses for this dinosaur not having any feathers.

"There are a number of possible explanations for Juravenator's nakedness. Feathers could have been lost on the evolutionary line leading to Juravenator after arising in an ancestor to both it and its feathered relatives.

It is also possible that this particular fossil of Juravenator, which appears to be a juvenile, only grew feathers as an adult or lost its feathers for part of the year.

It is entirely possible that Juravenator did have feathers, but they simply failed to fossilize.

Whether or not the new specimen raises interesting questions about how feathers -- and thus birds -- evolved, most experts do not see it as a challenge to the widely accepted view that modern birds are descended from dinosaurs."

I know maybe dinosaurs didn't become birds, birds are a different kind than dinosaurs (four footed beasts).
They start out with the faulty presumptions that we all come from a rock that was rained on for millions of years and have to have common ancestor.

Well once again evolution is startlingly let down by the fossil record.
