My dear and lovely new friend is on Padre Island and the news is claiming that a 95 mile an hour hurricane is headed for the island and will hit at noon today. Michelle, the weather looks fierce and my hopes and prayers are with you. I hope I am mistaken as to your whereabouts. If I am right about the location, I hope you left the Island as they are now saying it is impossible to get to the mainland until the winds subside to 45 miles per hour. Michelle Casto is a blogger on "Declare."

Using All of Your Magical Mind

“Would you believe that so small a space could contain the images of the whole universe?” Leonardo daVinci
The brain is amazing as daVinci points out, and I believe the mind, whatever it is, is even more so. To paraphrase what someone once said about the brain, If the mind were simple enough to understand, we would be too simple to understand it.
It is obvious to us all that the real power on this earth lies with those who control the energy. Politicians and the media spread the word about renewable energies like solar and wind power but this only addresses a fraction of demand. There is a better way...a much better way.
"Michael Dowd and Connie Barlow offer a new vision of reality, evolution, and the divine," writes Amy Hassinger in UU World. As evangelists of evolution they travel the country sharing 'the Great Story,' a religious perspective rooted in an evolving natural science.

Hi All,
Please take a look at www.watertogas.com, especially the U-Tube part. I would create a link to the U-Tube, but I don't know how. Two gentlemen have created a simple add on to a car engine that increases mileage and decreases air pollution. It would be great if the scientific/mechanical type people out there would let us know what you think.
"... Globalisation for the Common Good mission is to promote ethical, moral and spiritual values into the areas of economics, commerce, trade and international relations amongst others, as well as personal virtues, to advance understanding and action on major global issues by civil society, the private enterprise, the public sector, governments, and national and international institutions, leading to the promotion of collaborative policy solutions to the challenges posed by globalisation. We are committed to the idea that the marketplace is not just an economic sphere, ‘it is a region of the human spirit’. Whilst considering the many economic questions and issues we should also reflect on the Divine dimension of life, and should, in contrast to what is practised today, be concerned with the world of heart and spirit. We view the problem and challenge of globalisation not only from an economic point of view, but also from ethical, spiritual and theological perspectives. ..."
You likely heard the news coming from the Royal Bank of Scotland (the Rothchilds) predicting some acute downturn in the markets or more specifically, the collapse of the U.S. dollar. Morgan Stanley weighed in with the same outlook. They are predicting this will occur in three months time.
"Deep within our subconscious all of us harbor biases that we consciously abhor. And the worst part," says Scientific American Mind author Siri Carpenter, "WE ACT ON THEM." She quotes Jesse Jackson who once told an audience, "There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery -- then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved."
“It started suddenly with an uncontrollable jerk as I sat on a straight backed chair in a small rustic cottage in Rio Caliente Resort. Then came a loud inner roar like the sound of water rushing, followed by the searing image in my mind’s eye of hot white light shooting up my spine, through my brain and out the top of my head. The force was so strong that my head flew backward as my arms flung upward, fingers splayed and palms raised to the heavens. Accompanied by a strong, hot dry wind the light drew me up and out of my body to an expanded universe where everything was vividly alive, conscious and interconnected,” writes IONS Circle member Brenda Sanders in ‘What is Really Real,’ a chapter in Peak Vitality, an anthology recently released by Elite Books.
