In the world today:

First up - an interesting story circulating with implications for the "mark of the beast" - as we see yet another step in the development of this technology:

Electronic skin tattoo has medical, gaming, spy uses

A hair-thin electronic patch that adheres to the skin like a temporary tattoo could transform medical sensing, computer gaming and even spy operations, according to a US study published Thursday.

The micro-electronics technology, called an epidermal electronic system (EES), was developed by an international team of researchers from the United States, China and Singapore, and is described in the journal Science."It's a technology that blurs the distinction between electronics and biology," said co-author John Rogers, a professor in materials science and engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

"Our goal was to develop an electronic technology that could integrate with the skin in a way that is mechanically and physiologically invisible to the user."


Earthquakes remain a story today. Without listing each big quake today, we have the seismic map which can be viewed and these articles:

Sizeable earthquake hits Fukushima region

A 5.9-magnitude quake shook Japan early Friday, hitting the region around Fukushima which was devastated by an earthquake and tsunami in March. There were no immediate reports of casualties and no tsunami warning triggered.


China quake injures 26, topples 30 homes

A 5.8 magnitude earthquake struck northwestern China on Thursday toppling 30 homes and injuring 26 people in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.


5.7-magnitude quake shakes Pakistan

A 5.7-magnitude earthquake shook Pakistan early Wednesday, the U.S. Geological Survey said, but there were no immediate reports of injury or damage.

And here is an update on Japan quakes and nuclear situation that is worth reading.

NASA Sun-Watching Satellite Spots Comet Elenin in Deep Space

A NASA spacecraft aimed at the sun shifted its unblinking gaze to an approaching comet last week to snap a new photo of the icy object as it flew by.

The image shows the comet Elenin as it passed within 4.3 million miles (7 million kilometers) of one of NASA's twin Stereo sun-watching spacecraft during a series of deep space photo sessions that began on Aug. 1. NASA rolled the Stereo-B satellite to give its instruments a view of the comet flyby, officials said.

From Stereo's observations, the fuzzy comet Elenin can be seen streaking across a small portion of the sky. The comet was seen by Stereo's HI-2 telescope between Aug. 1 to 5, and by the higher resolution HI-1 telescope between Aug. 6 to 12, NASA officials said. Stereo mission scientists planned to take photos for one-hour every day through Aug. 12.


In the U.K.: Are we about to see the first example of a government shut-down of "social media"?

London riots: police could get powers over social media

The Prime Minister said that “everyone watching these horrific actions will be stuck by how they were organised via social media. Free flow of information can be used for good. But it can also be used for ill.”

He said that he has asked the police if they need new powers, and that Government is “working with the police, the intelligence services and industry to look at whether it would be right to stop people communicating via these websites and services".

The Home Secretary later told Parliament that she will convene a meeting with the police and representatives from the social media industries to to discuss how to improve the technological and related legal capability of the police. They will discuss "whether and how we should be able to stop people communicating via these websites and services", she said.

London police use facial recognition to ID riot thugs

Facial recognition technology being considered for London's 2012 Games is getting a workout in the wake of Britain's riots, with officers feeding photographs of suspects through Scotland Yard's newly updated face-matching program.


And last - we see a chilling video report from Ron Paul regarding the status of the dollar and how the federal reserve is participating in dying dollar:

So for now we have peel and stick electronic id's. : ) I cannot figure out who will want it smack in the middle of their forehead. Will a particular age group be asked to do so? Cajuns? Union officials? The 10 Toe workers?

Sue, I've been meaning to ask why the Queen hasn't released a statement about the civil unrest? And why do they wait until a riot is well underway before they act in earnest?

I just don't get why our own government will dilly dally around before sending in the National Guard to squelch an uprising. (I blame George Bush for not acting sooner to stop the LA riots after the Rodney King verdict.) If it were the Israelis they would be on it before the first molotov cocktail that was thrown. And now we have a government that encourages divisiveness and hatred and I guarantee you there will be an even slower response to a civil uprising.
Let us pray that our Christian witness will be a beacon of light in these dark days.

Stephen, when the gold and silver coins are cast into the street we'll be walking streets of gold. : )

Some of these stories just make your head shake in disbelief. I feel like many of our 'officials' are just idly standing by letting everyone self-destruct or destruction happen so they can get the final control to take away freedoms. This communication thing...PLEASE...let everyone pounce on each other and then we will have a reason to do what we wanted to do all along but not violated the constitution. We will call it a much needed approach to ensure better safety among all. Right...


It's like watching someone drown and standing on the side-lines deciding when to throw in the life preserver while chit-chatting. Doesn't this sound familiar with the guns in Mexico? How about NASA with Elenin? How about MO? How about the weather rings? The list goes on and on. I will just slowly....and gently step away from the computer and enjoy the day with my daughter who will be returning to school. (ha ha)..

Sorry for these thoughts but even in my sleep there is no peace. The visions I am getting is we have to tolerate a different way of living for just a little bit longer. It seems so hard and unfair. Last year about this time we had some 'Landscapers' in the area who didn't know my daughter and I were home. It was mid-day, they just strolled up to the house, rang the front porch. I had the alarm on internally so I didn't want to answer the door. I thought they would leave. Nope, they rang it a few times to check if we were here. I watched from the stairs and sure enough 3 of them, 2 on our patio and one in the front ringing the door bell started strolling off with our items. I called the police, took out my high view lens camera and caught the picture of the vehicle with the guys. Till this day, still no catch. They went to other homes and even walked up asking for water when prowling around. Screen back doors unlocked, kids playing. Talk about nervie. Pure lawlessness and that was last year. Things have changed much this year and we live in a great neighborhood. The neighbors just thought they were landscapers working at our home and needed water. Since then we have started a community watch group on line and on the streets. We decided to be proactive with the police to protect the kids.


Crazy...!!! Wish I would have known about Mrs. C's Wasp spray back then...JK

Hey with the Lord's permission of course I am having a get together, Thanksgiving Day, at my heavenly mansion for all the Prophecy update folks. Everyone is invited. I'm so looking forward to seeing you all there. It will be pot Luck... so bring your favorite dish. :)

Paula said...

The desserts will be heavenly! (And not fattening!)

Scott said...

Count me in WV!

gearedup2go said...

WV, what's your favorite recipe? I'm getting hungry just thinking about the banquet.

GG, I'm thankful that you weren't hurt by those men. Just think about our treasures that are being sent up ahead where they will never be stolen or damaged. And we'll have beautiful, white, spotless robes that will never get stained with chocolate or spaghetti sauce. : )

gearedup2go, it would have to be the chicken scampi from Olive Garden. That is about the only thing I have ever ordered there since it came to our town 7-8 years ago and I am still not tired of it yet! I love their salad dressing too. A close second would be just about any fish or seafood, cajun style with angel hair pasta :)

How about You?

PLEASE GET READY FOR A HUGE DOLLAR RALLY. ALL I CAN SEE IS HATRED FOR
THE BUCK, AND THAT MEANS UP WE GO.

AND OUR GOLD BULLS, AS USUAL, NEED
TO BE READY FOR A MASSIVE CRASH....

GOLD DOWN 2 DAYS ALREADY.

Nice thought WV...Hmmm I like so many things I guess my dish will be a surprise. My daughter loves God so much. I often speak of everyone on here. When I told her about this proposed dinner she asked if you could hold a secret Santa at Christmas. :) Too Cute!

Thanks GU2GO on above. The hardest thing I am having with the lawlessness around me is how natural it looks when it's happening. These guys took off slow with such confidence so they would not draw attention to themselves. A new truck with lanscaping tools (or somone elses tools) and no sign on it. Very thought out plan.

May you all have a wonderfully relaxing weekend.

God Bless!!

I'm bringing devil's food cake.

Hi Scott~

I am not sure if this was discussed here. I was given a link regarding the olgacom scandal which is presented from a polish woman and former employee on 6-23-11. She is trying to inform others about the cover up of olgascom and the New World Order intentions. It was very interesting. I will put the link below.

God Bless!!

"I'm bringing devil's food cake."

Will that be allowed? lol...I need the little shocked icon with eyes bulging...How about angel food cake instead...

gearedup2go, I like looking at birth order and how it impacts our personalities...Let me venture a guess and say you were the baby of the family? A first born would never ever bring devil food cake to a heavenly party if it was the last thing they did. In fact it would never even cross their mind. As the baby of my family and married to a first born I can speak with authority. :)

gearedup2go said...

I will neither confirm nor deny. ;-)

WVBORN56 said...

"I will neither confirm nor deny. ;-)"

Yep, definitely the baby! :)

I think I would bring roasted beef and fresh bread. When I think of the Old Testament required offerings and how the aroma was pleasing to God, I wonder how much better it will be in heaven!
