"The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God "
Tinker:
People have told me that the whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God.
Wow! Imagine that the words in the bible are words inspired by god threw the writer. Now that is very inspiring to believe, getting that close to god would set most people on fire. Flattering us that god spirit is there with us as we write the words inspired from him.
Are you kidding me I would need a ice cream or something because that is making me jumpy just thinking about if that might in fact was true. If I see or hear god in any kind of a real way I'm going to jump for joy and not worrying about the letter in our alphabet, or the words that I might wright.
But the reality within my mind and heart feeling the salvation of mankind could just about overwhelm my ability for this life that I live now.
I really don't see how my human frailties could stand up to the reality of god real presence. I mean how could we do such a thing. Please think about that before you say anything. Talking to "God"

Words of Wisdom
~ SPIRITUAL AWARENESS ~
"It's never too late to change the programming imprinted in childhood, carried in our genes or derived from previous lives; the solution is mindfulness in the present moment." —Peter Shepherd
"Talk to yourself in two languages - what do I fear and what do I love - in order to balance the body and the soul." —Peter Shepherd
"Survival is for the human animal; fear the motivation. For the spiritual being survival is irrelevant. Curiosity, compassion and creativity are the name of the game; unconditional love the motivation." —Peter Shepherd
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres... And now these three remain: faith hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." —Bible (I Corinthians 13:4-7, 13)
"When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying." —Unknown
Tinker:
Oh man this is good stuff for real." You are not a drop in the ocean, You are the entire ocean in a drop. -Rumi-
Sure sound nice don't it, but truly
I would need to be dead to stand up to that kind of reality because it
would surly kill me standing in the presence of God. That of course
would be surrounding me in the colorful light of redemption and
forgiveness.
All my shameful mistakes and past sins would disappear from my life like they never happen and I would be free to be born again living in peace. To finally understand the answers to so many questions, learning about the reason for this vast universe. I could spend the rest of my time studding the stars and all that is in them. Seeing my Father and Mother once more, who left so many years before. Touch the hand of my wife who prayed to stay, but had to leave. Walk again with my childhood friends, as I wait for my own children time.

Walk again with my childhood friends, as I wait for my own children time.
No as you can see I am still just stuck with my own imagination of God and praying from time to time for his allusive attention to appear in my reality. Sometimes I think that he is there or here, but I become doubtful because I feel like that is only my emotions playing tricks on me after I see something beautiful or mysterious.
Gods reality is apparently beyond my imagination ability to really understand God. I will simply need to wait for my own death to see the true image of god.
Because all of what I am trying to learn about, Love, Life, God, and Death, is not a unreal story from someone else imagination, but rather my own real life, and that is no small potatoes at all to me.
Believe me if I ever get a chance to be with god before my death for real, you will be the first to know.

After attacking Bill O'Reilly's history last week, I'll defend his sociology this week. On Monday, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell ridiculed Fox News' O'Reilly for saying that single motherhood is responsible for the the high black crime rate.
O'Reilly said, quite correctly: "The reason there is so much violence and chaos in the black precincts is the disintegration of the African-American family. Right now, about 73 percent of all black babies are born out of wedlock. That drives poverty. And the lack of involved fathers leads to young boys growing up resentful and unsupervised. And it has nothing to do with slavery. It has everything to do with you Hollywood people and you derelict parents."
O'Donnell mocked O'Reilly, saying that "the struggles of black America have nothing to do with slavery in Bill O'Reilly's very narrow and uneducated mind." He then droned on about some paper Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote about slavery.
Take that, Bill O'Reilly!
While I'm sure that was a fascinating little monograph Moynihan wrote about slavery, O'Donnell cited nothing in it that contradicted O'Reilly. Apparently, Moynihan found that American slavery was "the most awful the world has ever known." True, but unfortunately that has nothing to do with what O'Reilly said.
It doesn't even sound like Moynihan was attributing black illegitimacy to slavery. O'Donnell's point was simply that the great Moynihan had written about slavery being bad, so all discussion must end.
Fortunately, all discussion did not end for Erol Ricketts, a (black) demographer and sociologist with the Rockefeller Foundation who researched the origin of black female-headed families in the 1980s. His studies showed that the black family was thriving from the late 19th century through most of the 20th century.
You don't get much poorer, deprived or discriminated against than being a black person in America just a generation out of slavery. Read More »

John Oliver Grills Kirsten Gillibrand About Wall Street Donations
Posted: 08/09/2013 1:28 am EDT
It's tough to get a straight answer from politicians about
the influence of money in politics. But "Daily Show" host John Oliver
did what he could to get Sen. Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY) to explain her
Wall Street donations on Thursday's show.
"Help me understand the relationship between banks and politics, because on the Venn diagram of that, you are right in the middle," Oliver said. "You were the number one recipient of money from Goldman Sachs in 2011 to 2012 for all sitting congressmen. JPMorgan was your number two corporate donor over the last five years. What I deeply want to know is, what do you have to do for that? What is required of you for that money? Because it makes me uncomfortable."
Gillibrand punted with a general answer about her job as a politician. "My job is to represent New York and to do what's right for people. My job is to have a voice for people who don't have a voice in Washington," she said. "We need much more regulation for the banks, we need far more transparency and accountability."
Oliver circled back on his original question. "The thing that concerns me is the money and the politics thing, because it's chicken and egg," he pressed on. "Are there opinions that you have on Wall Street, do you get the money because you already have those opinions, or do you need those opinions to get the money?"
Rather than going into detail about the influence her Wall Street donors may or may not have on her political views, the New York senator said she believes that the influence of money in politics creates widespread distrust for politicians.
"Well, I believe in publicly funded elections, and I think we should get the money out of politics, period," she said. "Because at the end of the day, regardless of who supports your campaigns, whether it happens to be a lawyer or a banker or a stay-at-home mom, it's irrelevant where the money comes from. What matters is the public doesn't trust politicians and they don't trust politics. And they don't trust it because of the level of money in politics."
Wait, but doesn't it kind of matter where the money comes from?

LSU Shine brightly with flashes of sparkling wealth;
Tinker:
I hope that this LSU football team is as healthy as they look, because looks can be so deceiving sometimes. Health on the other hand is like a hidden treasure with a abundance of jewels and sparkling wealth.
Tinker:
I hope that this LSU football team is as healthy as they look, because looks can be so deceiving sometimes. Health on the other hand is like a hidden treasure with a abundance of jewels and sparkling wealth.
This LSU football team looks very wealthy to me
with a little extra touch of people with obvious durability underneath
the LSU uniforms. Guys who look like that they have played the rough and
tough game of football from grammar school to college, and are now
taking on the look of grown men about to go pro.
That the LSU college football practice looks
more like a pro football teams practice then college. These young men
truly look like what they do, college football players developing into
going to play pro football playing for money, with no more tolerance for
kid stuff.
Omen: If you dream of one day becoming a champion find out what it takes to beat a champion. And then never give up.

LSU
Tigers like changes to the offense
The players on LSU’s offense sound like kids trying out a new toy
when they talk about implementing first-year coordinator Cam Cameron’s
scheme. His system, it seems, has a little something for everybody.
The linemen like the faster pace, which makes it more difficult for defensive substitutes to get on the field and replace weary teammates.
The wide receivers like that the prospect of big plays in the passing game is more than just an afterthought.
The tight ends like the fact that they are viewed as more than just a sixth lineman.
The quarterbacks like the balance between the run and the pass, which allows them to take advantage of all the skill players around them.
And the running backs like that the Tigers aren’t abandoning their commitment to the power running game, which has always been the offense’s focus under coach Les Miles.
In other words, Cameron didn’t throw out the baby with the bath water.
“We’re going to present ourselves differently,” senior quarterback Zach Mettenberger said after the team’s first full-squad practice Friday morning. “But honestly, it’s going to be the same LSU hard running game, with a lot of passes built off of that. Hopefully we’ll be less predictable.”
The lack of predictability has become a predictable answer from players who are asked how Cameron’s offense differs from the version that offensive line coach Greg Studrawa coordinated within Miles’ vision the past two seasons.
“Last year, everybody knew we were going to run, but my thing was, ‘Yeah, but can you stop us?’ ” senior fullback J.C. Copeland said. “We’re still going to do what we do, but we’re doing a lot more stuff, and it won’t be as predictable. You’ll see — it’ll be a lot different how people will play us.”

Dandy Don's LSU Sports Report
First, it was great hearing from many of you about the two LSU football practice videos I posted yesterday. I'm glad you enjoyed them and wish that I could shoot more, but as I mentioned yesterday the remainder of LSU's practices will be closed to the media.
After monitoring the team's first two weeks of practice, I spent some time updating my unofficial depth chart and I will likely tweak it some more after hearing the coaches speak during today’s Media Day. I can tell you right now that I feel very good about LSU's depth of talent across the board, although there are some areas of mild concern.
At the receiver position depth wasn’t much of a concern until Avery Peterson and Armand Williams suffered injuries that will likely keep them out for a while, and I'm still not sure about the status of John Diarse and James Wright who were both absent from Friday's practice. However, even without the aforementioned receivers I think the receiving corps will be improved over last year with Odell Beckham, Jr., Jarvis Landry and Kadron Boone returning, plus a healthy Travin Dural. As I've said before, Dural has had a remarkable spring and summer and should be a major impact player this season. And if Diarse and Wright are healthy, they will provide quality depth along with Quantavious Leslie and Kevin Spears and the Tigers should be fine here barring any injuries to the top four receivers.
As for the defensive line, there's tons of talent there, but not as much experience as in a typical year. The national media have made a lot of noise about LSU losing defensive ends Barkevious Mingo, Sam Montgomery and Lavar Edwards to the NFL draft, but really I think that point has been overdone. It's looking like this year’s starting ends will be Jermauria Rasco and Jordan Allen, with Danielle Hunter and Justin Maclin likely rotating in and out a lot. These four, along with newcomers Tashawn Bower and Frank Herron, make for what I believe will be a fairly solid and deep group, despite their lack of experience. At the tackles, starters Anthony Johnson and Ego Ferguson will be counted on to be leaders up front and I think they'll be just fine. Johnson was a freshman All-American and he's really grown into a vocal leader up front. Ferguson hasn’t ever started a game for LSU, but did see considerable action last year and really came on strong in the backend of the season. As for who will backup these two tackles, that's still up in the air, but I'd say veterans Quentin Thomas and Mickey Johnson are holding a slight lead over heralded newcomers Christian Lacouture, Greg Gilmore and Maquedius Bain.
Look for a full report on Media Day from me tomorrow, and for an updated unofficial depth chart based on the coaches’ comments early next week. After that, I'll give you my thoughts and evaluation of each position. To be honest, the more I look at this team the more excited I become about this year's potential.
In recruiting news, New Jersey wide receiver Saeed Blacknall has committed to Rutgers. Blacknall was thought to be a strong lean to LSU for a while, but after he attended LSU's camp a few weeks ago you could see things start to shift in his recruitment. It appears to me that there was some mutual cooling between Blacknall and LSU after seeing how Blacknall compared to the elite in-state receivers. I'm not surprised at all that Blacknall decided to stay closer to home.
With less than three weeks remaining until LSU's season opener, today we’ll continue our jersey countdown with No. 20, and the player I've chosen to profile today should come as no surprise. Of course, it's Billy Cannon, LSU's most celebrated player. Cannon played at LSU from 1957-’59 and was a member of the ’58 championship team that defeated No. 12 Clemson in the Sugar Bowl, 7-0. The only score in the game was on a pass from Cannon to Mickey Mangham. In 1959, Cannon led the top-ranked Tigers to victory over the No. 3 Rebels of Ole Miss. The Tigers were trailing 3-0 when Cannon returned a punt 89 yards for a TD, breaking seven tackles in the process. All of you have probably seen that return before, but it's certainly worth revisiting. Here's a video of that historic moment in Tiger history that resulted in a 7–3 victory for LSU. That same year, Cannon won the Heisman Trophy and was voted College Football Player of the Year. Cannon's jersey number was retired after the 1959 season. In 1983, Cannon was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame, but the Hall rescinded the honor before his induction after he confessed to being involved in a counterfeiting scheme. The Hall re-elected him in 2008 and he was formally inducted on December 9th of that year.
In closing, I'd like to remind you all that today is Fan Day at LSU. If you live within driving distance, make plans to load up the family and head out to campus to meet the players and have your memorabilia signed. You can get more information and all the details of the day’s activities at lsusports.net/fanday.

LSU and Tulane are in talks to open the 2015 football season with a game at the Superdome. The teams haven't played since 2009, and they've faced each other just five times since 1996, but their legacy resonates with fans of both teams.
What are your memories of LSU-Tulane games? Or is it Tulane-LSU games? Share your thoughts on the games, the atmosphere, the players -- everything that made the match-ups so unique.
Tulane fans revel in winning three games in four seasons from 1979-82. LSU fans recall winning every other game since 1948 except for Tulane's '73 win. Tell us what you remember about the series.

Wow!
Tulane vs LSU...Oh the years are long and the years are many because
when I start to remember the Tulane/LSU college football rival, I must
also remember the people who was there before me. The men and women who
went to school there. Who then went on to live and raise a family of
children that also became the formula to the mathematical relationship of the Tulane/LSU college football
rival.
So you see in a much deeper way the best memories about the Tulane/LSU college football rival is not from anyone contest, or game, but from a lifetime of living in and around our neighborhoods, homes, and living rooms. Where we the people of Tulane or LSU became internment friends or enemies.
I was bitter about the way the Tulane people treated LSU alum like rift raft, and I wanted nothing more but to clean their plow each and every time that LSU played a college football game against Tulane.
Now after Tulane college football program has suffered so much lost over these past years, I don't feel that way about Tulane any more. Now I just wish them the best of luck.

I
grew up near Tulane stadium and my first live games were Tulane games. I
am a die hard LSU AND Tulane fan.....yes, that is possible. I usually
always root for the Tigers when the two teams play but I was at the game
in '73 and partied on the field and helped tear down the goalposts. It
was a great moment in Tulane history. I WILL attend games when the
stadium is on campus again. I hope Tulane football becomes relevant
again
