Social Norms or Worshipping

      I was in church Friday 4, 2011 to hear a sermon and as the collection baskets were passed the Pastor stated that whomever donated would receive 20 fold back that which they donated and I believe even though I did not have any money but doubt was raised in my mind due to my past experiences.  Now I am a true believer in God and am very sure of myself but to someone whom is not sure of themselves and is struggling to find their path to God that doubt that is raised can determine whether someone will be a believer or non-believer.

     The norms in the social interaction of the church are usually what say aloud how people practice their faith. Most people want a place they can worship without fear of being a social outcast but worship and fellowship are a mutual component of the functioning body of the church.  That which is demanded of the followers of Jesus Christ are:   Reverence, Belief, Worship, Fellowship, and Witnessing and they are meeting those demands by bringing people to worship within those social norms.   You become slaves of your pastor and if you have a good one, then thank God for him but there are some Pastors who don’t instill those values in their congregation so the devil slithers in and as the offering is taken up doubt is raised automatically if you don’t know what is in your heart.  Through reading and the studying of his word a follower of Christ will begin to understand scripture and from understanding must worship him whole heartedly and stop, not just straddling the fence but hopping it, going back to dabble in the ways  you have abandoned for Christ.  Right is not right because a man says so but right is right because God says so. 

     Those who have the faith they would pay tithes over a bill if it came down to it, “We always pay our tithes and we manage”.   Those who don’t have the faith say, “How can u justify these big elaborate churches or places of worship and you still have members in the congregation who live below the poverty line or just above it?”

What is the reason to obey God?

At a small room in a plaza located off of Moon Road in Columbus, Georgia is a small ministry called International Healing Ministry, headed by Apostle Phyllis Stinson.  Me and my colleagues of Hidden Treasure Ministries had the luxury of fellowshipping with these wonderful women who believe in what is called Interceding. Interceding according to the Encarta Dictionary is to plead with somebody in authority on behalf of somebody else, especially somebody who is being punished for something or when the spirit of god is moved upon a person who believes and obeys the word of the Lord God and causes an unlocking of the spiritual energy that is trapped in our bodies in some form of disease or infection that is usually too small to detect.  Most might call it witchcraft, voodoo, or sorcery but intercession unlocks spirits that hinder us in our daily lives like spirits of Anger, Pride, Lust, and Hatred, which are dead bolted to our  bodies and that when we truly believe in Jesus Christ as our lord and savior then the spirit of the lord acts upon the body and causes a reaction that is usually frightening like, queasiness, nausea, vomiting, and convulsing but for some it comes in the form of uncontrollable laughter, venting screams or shouts or something that is healing, causing the spirits to walk off the individual.  It releases nine chemical hormones that are vital to our existence socially, spiritually, and physically. 

Apostle Stinson said in her sermon on my first Wednesday night that you must first taste of god first before you can sit at the table that he has prepared for you in the presence of your enemies and that total submission is god’s covenant for you and in that covenant are the blessings.  She goes further to say that there are a million ways to please god but that you must first believe then it is impossible to obey and whatever your enemies feel for u god will kill the thought and subdue your enemies for you.  We disobey because we get caught up in our own self-righteousness but god will match the richest of his creation because he is the mint of all money.  The question is asked, What is the reason to obey god?  Knowing that every step we take is walking out god’s plan

Moving Forward

     Living isolated in a subsidized SRO are four seasoned men whom are industrious, diverse, decisive, and diligent.  William Crenshaw, Mosi Wells, Cory Bell, and Jerome Thomas whom are all apart of ‘Hidden Treasures Ministries’ headed by Pastor Juan D. Lane.

     These four men ride around in a mini-van provided by Hidden Treasure Ministries and perform odd jobs for the Pastor and his wife as well as others that provide an alternative source of income:

William Crenshaw, 43, the driver of the crew and the operator of an unofficial business called WINDOWS by WILL has been cleaning windows professionally for 15years.  He has 6 kids that he sends money but keeping the van gassed up is priority one.  Crenshaw says that driving tour buses is his first passion as well as photography.  He describes himself as a charming people person.

Mosi Wells, 34, started riding with Crenshaw assisting him in window cleaning but Wells’ main hustle is collecting cans and raking an occasional yard.  Wells is a novelist/writer with one self-published novel entitled, SOLITAIRE MONGOOSE, that is the first in a series.  Along with the other two written but unpublished novels in his mongoose series and a total of two unwritten novels and is the owner of an unofficial publishing company, TRAPHOUSE PUBLICATIONS.  Wells has a blog entitled, Solitaire Mongoose, with post that gives the reader an inside look at the world today.  Wells has been promoting his novel/writings with press flyers and press releases to every major media outlet and on every major social networking site.  He signed with Avalon Consulting Group in June of 2010 and sends out Query letters to literary agents and publishers hoping someone will represent his work.  He enters his short stories in writing contest for exposure and extra money and is a current student at Columbus Technical College pursuing his certificate as a welder.  With one son whom is 15 Wells has been out of work since May of 09 and with very little work before then.  Mosi is as distinguished as his name, the light-skinned, corn-rowed 5% loves to write and entertain and ask, “If a man has no love in his own country what does he do when he is not loved by the rest of the world?”

     Quiet, conscience, and funny is Cory Bell, 34, whom has been unemployed for two years now.  A mover and a general laborer he last worked in 2007.  Bell says he earned about $3000 in 2006-2007 where he lived in his own place paying rent.  After he lost his job he lost his place and moved in with his Aunt where he had to pay $50 dollars a week.  When his savings ran out and with no sure way to replenish it, he, like many others found himself looking for answers.  Corey aspires to open his own cultured book store and fruit/vegetable store stocked with inventory from his own grown crops.  He hopes someone will see how sincere and serious he is and give him a chance.

Jerome Thomas, 47, is a gentle, hardworking, and fun-loving guy with a certification as a nurse’s assistant and has been out of work for 10 years.  He has worked for the past 2yrs selling newspapers as a source of income and with no kids Jerome says he does not like living in his SRO.  Jerome and I laugh when he says that with ‘Hidden Treasure Ministries’ he sleeps all day.

     All four love themselves and agree that they are not happy with their current situation and make no excuses for how they got there they only make solutions to get out of it as most like them reach a lot of dead ends.  They frequent other churches and ministries with Pastor Lane fellowshipping in the name of God.  In the City of Columbus the first female Mayor was inaugurated on January 3, 2011; An ice over occurred on January 10, 2011 that caused over 80% of the city to shut down for a day and the 16^th annual Kwanzaa celebration held at the liberty theatre which was different than all 15 held previously and an Employment Expo for the Homeless to make poverty cease on January 27, 2011.  All these events  attended by one or more of these four men are signs of a city moving forward by a Master of a household bringing forth treasures of old and new(Mat. 14:51).  Something old, Something new now all that is left is something blue to solidify a true union of god and man, heaven and earth that will bring us across a new threshold of light that shines out of the darkness and into our hearts the treasures of a new millennium(2Cor.6:6-9)

Man vs. Machine

 

History repeats itself but those moments that shape and define each generation, each time period give a clear and distinctive view into that generation, into that time period. One of the defining moments caused by the machine in this generation is what I call “The Great Recession”. Due to the infallible geniuses of the 20th century on our geo-political and social economic scene our economy may see consecutive quarters of negative growth but never negative enough to repeat “The Great Depression” of the 1930’s. In the movie EAGLE EYE, starring Shia Lebeof, a government supercomputer has taken upon itself to instruct the twin brother of Shia Lebeof to come to him so he can reactivate a program that the twin placed out of the computers reach but the computer gives orders, kill orders to achieve the objective that it sets out. This movie was fictional but the concept is real and as an ex-con with 10 years under my belt and a dependent of government assistance (homeless) I see the machinations of Satan manifest themselves everyday through the system. I struggle, some more than others, on a daily basis to try and come out this rut I’m in financially. I took my unemployment check to the bank to cash it and the man in front of me left a twenty dollar bill on the counter. I returned it to the teller who went chasing after the guy it belonged to. Had that a been $2,000 or $20,000 I would have kept some. The majority of the people I come in contact with on a daily basis are homeless and the small amounts of money we receive and the food stamps are good but some have become content, if not satisfied, with those crumbs and their existence. Talking with my boss lady one day, I told her that if I squandered my earnings on drugs, alcohol, and sex then finding a steady gig would not be so difficult. This is only the evil machinations of Satan manifesting themselves as I travel this all so familiar road that many have traveled before me. Satan’s machinations have manifested itself in the D.C. sniper shootings, the shuttle explosion, “A Great Recession”, the first black president, and these are on a national scale. The machination’s of Satan do not always do bad but whatever Satan decides that is what is. On a state level Georgia’s economy struggles and state funding shrinks. This may sound like an odd time for Columbus State University to talk about expanding to 10,000 students, this is a NEW BLUEPRINT OF ACTION. As a matter of fact a growth in student body this past fall is helping significantly now, as the university maneuvers through a state-mandated double-digit percent budget cut, which equals more than $4 million. It will mean having to do more with less. The new strategic plan doesn’t call for simply adding to the university numbers but growth with quality. The better academically prepared the entering students are, the better they face their challenges as college students giving them a better chance to graduate. We are now quietly emerging into the end of the war against human life on earth and eventually into natural capitalism. There are four types of capital:


1) Human Capitalism- Labor and intelligence, culture and organization

2) Financial Capitalism- Cash investments and monetary instruments

3) Manufactured Capitalism- infrastructure, machines, tools, and factories

4) Natural Capitalism- resources, living systems, and ecosystems.

Another example of experience and ingenuity was the sub-prime mortgage crisis. It was a time where everyone basically got something for nothing. The crisis erupted because as monies for home, auto, student, etc., loans depleted people struggled to pay them back but the sub-prime crisis was only one added to all types of cost. Why didn’t the entire nation feel the impact of “The Great Recession” as it is felt on a national level? As a new blueprint is created by those geniuses and scholars we have already encountered trust, oligarchies, Boss Tweeds and so we are able to create new laws and exert pressure on the CEO’s of America and there pay packages that include enormous stock options, rich pensions, and other perks. Instead of looting in riots in L.A., prison, or some of the other usual places you see it in Corporate America in the form of ‘perks’. Dealing with the four types of capital it is broken down into an algebraic expression we learned in grade school. 1+(-2)+3=. Four being the answer, four being natural capital, natural capital being those resources, living systems, and ecosystems that keep America strong, that keeps her integrity fortified, and keeps her economy safe and sound. For when we remove the problems of cash investments and monetary instruments then we are well on our way to true growth as a nation. These are only age old dilemmas recycled by Satan and answered similarly but differently by different generations.



To define the next industrial revolution we must search diligently all forms of capitalism collecting and saving each penny, nickel, dime, quarter, dollar, five, ten, twenty, fifty, and hundred and apply the same economic logic that drove the first industrial revolution. A guy I was locked-up with in prison did things to perfection and he called it stepping but the geniuses and scholars of this generation must “Step-Out” for the greatest accomplishments in history demand the greatest risk. History itself is shaped by the boldness not only of collective action but individual initiative. A prime example of defining is found in my self-published fiction title, SOLITAIRE MONGOOSE, where in chapter 16 the main character is interrogating Salcedo Ortiz about one of his men who tried to kill him:“Why have latin people gotten into selling their own like slaves. I’ve always known Mexicans to take care of their own and not pimp them for cheap labor.” Oreto laughs. “Reality is based on money, power, and control. I am not Mexican and besides I provide jobs for my people…”

“But what does that have to do with drugs, illegal aliens, and money?”

“It’s all about money and power señor…”

This fictionalized book gives a great perspective of the geo-political and social-economical infrastructure of human capitalism and the other three forms as well. Those scholars will connect dots, lines, curves, points, and parallels and a host of other shapes that they will read like braille as they feel their way through the unknown. In my non-fiction piece THE DIRTY SOUTH I spoke of how the Georgia Banking and Railroad Company didn’t depend solely on cotton but made a connection with the west as it had its commercial rivalry with South Carolina. The new connection comes via the entertainers and athletes who come to different parts of Georgia whether it is on business or something personal. The commercial rivalry would be “Beef” between Pastor Troy and Petey Pablo or Young Buck and Young Jeezy or the Atlanta Falcons would rival the Carolina Panthers. The 1960’s began an exit out of a transition from one half of the 20th century to the other locking part of America inside of different forms of Solitaire confinement until it was to be made whole again. Here in Columbus, Georgia at the water works treatment plant on River Road, a one of a kind tank that stores river water at the plant erupted releasing six million gallons of water almost in Tsunami effect. Residents in the area say they heard a big boom. The tank, built in 1965, had passed its most recent inspection in 2004, in terms of infrastructure it probably had a crack in the steel of the walls of the tank and the pressure of six million gallons of water pounding and pushing on the crack or whatever problem, for four years finally gave way. The Qur’an taught me that god gives signs and this was truly a sign not only for my city but for the world that that part of America that was locked away in the second part of the 20th century, silently, is now made whole again. In the FLAG OF ISLAM it states:

“The flag of islam, given by Allah (God) to the lost and found in America, represents the sun, moon, and stars. The sun consist of fire, which is 853,000 miles in diameter… the moon is a part of our earth, it represents equality. The star is light that dispels darkness of space and bears witness to the sun. The star is without numbers in space, it represents all the stars of the universe and it signifies justice”



The sun, moon, and stars are all indicative of the universe but the two colors red and white bear witness to the thick, dense white ethereal energy and the red is the protoplasmic energy that wraps itself around the white. This is what Jesus spoke of when he said, be ye perfect… We know that none is prefect except the father but the flag shows the greatness of human potential, so to try to stereotype me in the class of a dope boy when I desire Corporate America and make strides for that is an example of the machinations of Satan working his devilment. In Chapters 5 and 7 of my book you see a social interaction between the main character and a mysterious, dingily dressed Mexican named Juan who seems to know the main character. Juan gives the main character mementos from Chavez Ravine. In Chapter 7 Maria dances ballet to Ry Cooter’s soundtrack of Chavez Ravine. This social interaction shows how people cope with “The Great Recession”. When you discover the origins of water, the source of all creation, then you discover the source of god but what happens as this generation races through six million gallons of the source of all life? Nine is the highest universal number and as a sign of the times with the 2008 Olympics being hosted by China in Beijing, the only country on the come-up with the “New South”, Michael Phelps won his 8th gold medal, breaking Mark Spitz’s 36 year-old record of 7 gold medals. From Athens to Beijing, from land to sea it took a team to break a record in a distance through 400 meters of water in a time of one minute and six seconds. A wonder is termed a wonder because of the magnificence of how it was built. It can also be seen with the human eye from outer space but this magnificent wonder was impossible to see with the naked eye. It took video and timing reviews, frame by frame, measuring the filing of the duality of God that has existed since before Alpha and after Omega. Gina Sheeks stated, “We are embarking on a journey that will transform who we are…” Mescon said involvement from all corners of campus community was vital to the development of the plan. This new blueprint for action shows that they are an institution that is taking advantage of an opportunistic time. Small local economies that yield profits in these challenging times are just what the doctor ordered. I hope and pray that campuses across Georgia are doing the same so that institutions turn-out the student who will invent the tri-nary or quadri-nary code; more advanced software and hardware, the literary genius whose writings will arouse all these wonderful things and the geniuses and scholars whom will make and define the next industrial revolution.

May Almighty God Allah look down and be proud of what is born out of my writings-fiction and non-fiction, for they are in touch with the times and are diamonds in the rough for those geniuses and scholars who god allows to understand the hidden meaning of its passages.

National Implications

It is good to keep up with Obama, Healthcare Reform, Immigration system in crisis, troubled economy, earthquakes in Haiti, Italy, and Canada, oil spill in the Gulf, securing borders, and Troops in Afghanistan and Iraq but it is the strength of local economies that will keep America's economy strong, stable and out of the red.  In my state of Georgia Rob Teilhet is running for Attorney General and is Dealing a deathblow to his opponent with an issue that pains me to my heart not to talk about.  In 2009 one of the tanks at the Columbus Water Works collapses with a big boom, spilling over 6 million gallons of water into the surrounding neighborhoods and onto Columbus' major vein highway, J.R. Allen Parkway.  the tanks collapsing is a local incident but this is the water calculus with national implications that is very prophetic.  Now the spill came before the fire, before the fire at the historical Bibb Mill, which was the largest fire in Columbus History.  The Bibb Mill was one of the first mills in Columbus that fueled the economy and social life.  They said the fire was started at the old abandoned building by homeless people trying to keep warm.  Officials ruled the cause of the fire undetermined which sparked a national response that brought in the A.T.F.   Trusted Mayor Jim Wetherington will not run in 2010 opening a vacant seat for those candidates with the best sign design and in this mayoral race it is the candidate with the 'Best Sign' who will win the vacant Mayor seat in my city.  With the capture of one of the F.B.I.'s 10 most wanted, Micheal Regis, the reopening of the 1984 ax killings and indictment of Micheal Curry, the accused, and an appeal of the stocking stranglings and its accused, Carlton Gary.  There are many issues to platform on along with a statewide election there seems to be a changing of the guard. 
      From persons like Obama to issues on Immigration to troops in Afghanistan and Iraq to self checkouts in Wal-Mart to the 3M self checkout system at the library to shopping online or on the phone we live in a do it your self age.  These incidents are truly signs for not only my city but for the world that, that part of America that was locked away in the second part of the 20th century, silently, is now made whole again and it are those events and situations that help provide solutions to problems we face as a nation.

THE BREAKDOWN

Saturday, June 5, 2010

BREAKDOWN

With the dollar being the number one traded and largest reserve currency in the world. The question is asked, "Do you see what is happening to the dollar?" In my opinion it is truly losing its first place position, but not strength due to too much electronic trading that is allowed to go on with little intervention. The major companies on the DOW and S&P are international companies whom are generating profits that are causing the stock market to see growth. European companies are on their way to recovery while the gut of Wall street is like a gaping hole in the middle of the city of Guatemala. When stocks plunged 999pts in 15 minutes and recovered 600pts in the same amount of time, it were these gaping holes that stopped us from true recovery. The source of these gaping holes are speculated to be faulty trading that occurred within a labyrinth of electronic exchanges. A thief doesn't give a dam and those that do don't know exactly how it is occurring. A funny thing happened on the way to the future; The DOW falls at least 10%. A trading halt of an hour to a half an hour will occur. These trading halts create windows of opportunity for investors and investment groups to cancel bad trades or the opportunity to manipulate the market and shake investors confidence with over selling causing panic on Wall street. Now whom does this panic benefit? That just cannot happen to the U.S. stock market but the system failed and it could happen again and even though the U.S. is the best house in the worse neighborhood right now with rising earnings, low interest rates, and investors flocking to the U.S. Dollar as a safe-haven play. But with sluggish overall conditions and near term profitability issues in livestock and dairy sectors, investors in agriculture, which is usually a safe-haven, are being cautious in their purchasing decisions. This Panda bear market shows just how intertwined world markets are and with the DOW still under tremendous pressure due to fears of the debt crisis in Greece, the fundamentals of the game have shifted from a game of baseball or basketball to a globally linked game of soccer(or rugby), an international game loved by Europeans as Americans love Football, Baseball, and Basketball.
With Greece being the epicenter of the financial earthquake the Federal System which dominated global and domestic markets in the late 19th and 20th centuries, created jobs, a centralized banking system known as the Federal Reserve, the Federal Reserve Note, and F.D.I.C. The Federal System has led the way for over 150 years now and only relinquishes its number 1 position to maintain it. The dominoes were set up long before but began to fall in 2008 with the collapse of Lehman Brothers. With all the breakdowns from then up to present day bears witness to a tearing down of the Federal System which is being replaced by the Euro system.
The Euro sign is crossed by two parallel lines, which symbolizes the stability in the Euro system which is controlled by the European Central Bank, the world's most important central bank right now. Unlike the Federal Reserve Bank, it has one primary objective with others subordinate to it. The primary objective of the E.C.B. is tot take care of the foreign reserves of the Euro system and promote smooth operation of money market infrastructures under the Target payment system. In the debt crisis of 2007, the E.C.B., loaned billions in Euros to stabilize bank systems and in conjunction with the Federal Reserve, under the Term Auction Facility, to improve dollar liquidity in 'the zone' and stabilize the money market.
With the number 2 system in the number 1 spot this shows how we have revisited the past as far back as the American Revolution, evidenced by mock tea parties around the U.S.

Technological Footprints and Trappings

     Today's vision, who has it and are they in the right positions?  Barack Obama has a visioanry healthcare reform plan that was recently binded in a 1999 page plan.  Like many of the great presidents before him, F.D.R., Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, J.F.K., Dwight Eisenhauer, and Harry Truman all have signature works fo their Presidency.  For F.D.R. it was the New Deal for the American People, for Harry Truman it was the dropping/usage of the atomic bomb.  As Barack Obama and many state and local leaders like him pursue a course that leaves no recognizable footprints or technological trappings they are liken unto the teams of the NBA that has so many teams stacked with talent it is something unseen and unheard.  Saturday Night Live made a parody of the many things Obama has failed to do but their hasn't been a president in history whom has been scrutinized in such a short time like him. 

     In September North Georgia was swamped with flooding and after the flooding more rain.  Rain and water are nature's natural cleansing agents, cleaning all of the past iniquities, dirty secrets, stuck on and stained sins, and any other residual evil that will keep Georgia impure.  Vice President Joe Biden stated:

"It's not Katrina in its scope, by any

stretch fo the imagination but the impact

on their lives, on your lives, we understand

It is Katrina"

After touring the devastation that washed out roads and highways the stae of Georgia was reset for Reconstruction bids that brought jobs to a state whose unemployment rate matches that of the national average,  as the flood waters in North Georgia ran off into drainage systems into the Chattahoochee causing the river water levels to rise and the flood gates to open.  In Columbus, Georgia the Riverwalk was overtaken at certain points damaging light post, benches, trashcans, and logs, symbolically meaning that the run-off will come through and do damage to the economy but it is in the aftermath where we will receive more coal in our stockings.  In Georgia, 62% of electricity is produced from coal overall and it takes a man of vision, a man with a successful business mind, is known throughout the state to replace Mayor Jim Wetherington, of Columbus, Georgia who won't seek re-election in 2010.  We nee a visionary Mayor like J.R. Allen who died preaching consolidation, who can continue that vision, who can see that same vision for Columbus, Georgia.  Like Ft. Benning whom was awarded $32million for construction to build facilities to accomodate the Fort Knox Armour School.  the opportunity is right as a soon to be vacant Mayor's seat comes up.  You have three men who have announced their candidacy for Mayor:  At-large Councilor Wayne Anthony; Councilor Skip Henderson; Mid-Town Corporate Executive Teresea Tomlinson; and Spirit Filled Academy Director Zeph Baker.

     Will Obama be the Poor man's friend?  Has he remembered the forgotten man?  Have white people rallied against his visionary healthcare?  Is Obama's healthcare his new deal?  If so what will be hsi atomic bomb?  Georgia, being the proverbial gateway to Corporate America and a traditionally Red state politically, economically, environmentally, demographically, and culturally and with California on the cutting edge of the American future then maybe Georgia should look to California for awhile and go as green as possible in all those same aspects.

THE MISSING LINK

The question is asked where or what is the missing link?  Years ago scientist believed it to be a neandethal man from the prehistoric days frozen in stasis in a block of ice but the link that was being spoken of were the links in windows that would connect us to different websites on the information superhighway now known and used by everyone as the internet.  In the 40’s and 50’s families gathered around there radioes and T.V.’s for programs and news, the mediums for information.  The linkage was limited with only analogue signals and radio waves and Soviet Subversion into high levels of American Government was new and this limited linkage allowed for encryptions, attaches, and other type coded messages to be passed on.  This sparked a witch hunt for anyone and  all who resembled a communist in any aspect of their life.  Soviets penetrated deep into the American interior and even though their plans of taking over America did not succeed the moles lay dormant in these high level positions in American Government.

Did Soviet Subversion fail or was their a plan B?  Russian Intelligence Agencies KGB and GRU were very influential in their role in penetrating into America’s and other country’s interior but in 1995 the Russians created the F.S.B. to fight organized crime, gangs, contraband, and corrupt facist elements within the Soviet Union.  The agency can operate its own prison system, infiltrate foreign organizations and organized crime, create commercial enterprises as fronts for investigative work and demand information from private organizations.  These are very powerful authorizations that can and probably have carried over and out of their country.  Industrial espionage has been going on for a long time but from 1980 the term implied state-sponsored spying by one nation against the industrial and commercial interest of another.  The NATIONAL COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE CENTER was alleged by European companies that it was also being used for industrial espionage.

Possibly when the first subversion tactic failed that they learned from their mistake and carefully crafted another that would only be initiated at the right time when the right set of circumstances existed.  In between time they used more disciplined moles who committed words and phrases, signs and symbols to memory like a team of card counters in a Las Vegas casino, that were visible on pictures and had to be pieced together in part to form a whole sentence or paragraph.  They could easily walk into a public Library and use the computer to receive a message by looking at pictures posted up on a MYSPACE or FACEBOOK page by the team PHOTOGRAPHER who knows what to take pictures of, what pictures to post up and in what order.

Look at the clothes that people wear today.  It is a direct reflection of who is in power and who is running the country.  Economist call them market indicators but they are the links to successfully rebuilding an infrastructure where the walls of that infrastructure is being destroyed hourly.  We are at war on two fronts, one abroad to reinforce America’s war on terror and one at hom as we battle a troubled economy.  In 1968 powerful forces were unleashed and it is those same forces that are rearing their ugly heads today.  With movements like BLACK POWER and HIPPIES that were at one in succession without rest to battle these forces but movements of today are isolated and young because the youth don’t have that same aggression for power or instincts to obtain and maintain controlling positions of power.  In my city of Columbus, Georgia the old Bibb Mill, a building with historic proportions, caught fire and burned completely down to the ground.  Why did the fire occur?  Why did Lehman Brothers, Goldman Sachs, AIG, and Bern & Sterns, cornerstones of America’s economy go bankrupt all of a sudden?  It was an accident, done on purpose, waiting to happen.  When there is a breakdown in the system we must compensate for that breakdown but overcompensation causes an imbalance and an imbalance in America’s financial institutions equals corruption.  In my unpublished novel, THE DAY OF THE MONGOOSE, it talks about the Baker Report and America’s objective to put the world’s oil reserves under their control and how the Oil Wells in the Gulf of Mexico cannot be touched by any foreign or domestic entity.  With BP about to become the controlling oil company the Euro, which is the 2^nd largest reserve currency and the 2^nd most traded behind the dollar officially introduced into circulation in January 1^st, 2002.  Used in the Eurozone which consist of 16 European states and five other European countries, the number 2 currency in the world will be the currency followed as BP assumes the #1 position in the oil industry.   Literaly, New York City is the gateway to the west and proverbially California is the gateway to the east and Georgia is the gateway to corporate America.

Soviet Subversion is not happening but the elaborate methods of communication is something to think about as well as why the financial cornerstones of America’s economy caught fire and how we must pass through three gates to triangulate the solution of real lessons learned from Vietnam.  We are all on the same side.  There is no one man with a million dollars or Euros today but a million dollars or Euros spread out amongst millions of people.
