Symbolic logos - The History Channel, Verizon and the right triangle
I'm still in the midst of the series on "The Iron Giant" (No - really!) and am at the present time still pretty focused on a collateral study, a major update to what I've posted about pharmakeia. Until it's ready to post I'm continuing with some important peripheral items. First up, some links of interest.

Here's another striking revelation on the number 9, the single digit number representing the Beast and his mark, a triple helix DNA transformation strategy of Satan. Remember, the iron giant was dismembered in that movie heavily identified with the number nine and its theme. US actor cuts off neighbor's head, then kills friend
"Daniel Wozniak, who recently starred in the lead role as Guido Contini in the musical "Nine" at a theatre company, is accused of dismembering the body of Samuel Herr, 26, on May 21, leaving his torso at the Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base and scattering the limbs and head in a park. "

"Our research shows that implantable technology has developed to the point where implants are capable of communicating, storing, and manipulating data," Gasson said in a news report. "This means that, like mainstream computers, they can be infected by viruses, and the technology will need to keep pace with this so that implants, including medical devices, can be safely used in the future."

The other day a friend pointed out the recently updated logo of The History Channel. I've been considering what that might mean for a while, and now I'd like to share some insight into that and a related logo, Verizon's, which has an important symbolic element in common with that of The History Channel.
The History Channel logo presents a large golden letter H as its main feature. We think "History," of course, but it really signifies Horus on a deeper level, the featured god of The History Channel's backers. The golden color is one clue, which is the color of the statue's head, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, in Daniel 2. In Isaiah 14 a figure is used where the king of Babylon is a metaphor for Satan. And, Satan is associated with Horus as the dragon is to the Beast in Revelation 13. This compares to another Horus identity, the golden Apollo in this poster promoting the 1936 "Nazi" Olympics.
The Roman Catholic Church, which preserves the Horus worship tradition in many ways, presents the solar disk where we see The History Channel's font type for the H in use. The IHS has nothing to do with the son of the Most High Yahweh, but everything to do with Isis, Horus and Set, a trinity of gods worshiped in their Egyptian identities. The "christian" cross on the crossbar of the letter H is the Triple Tau cross.
This Triple Tau cross emblem, placed in the center of a triangle and circle -- both emblems of the Diety -- constitutes "the jewel of the Royal Arch" as practiced in England, (pictured in a Masonic patch on the right) where it is so highly esteemed as to be called the "emblem of all emblems," and "the grand emblem of Royal Arch Masonry."
You see on the left another popular Roman Catholic version of the IHS solar disk that features an additional layer of occult symbolism, highlighting the triple helix DNA transformation that is such a key element in the scheme being signaled. Like The History Channel, their version of HISTORY is all about honoring Horus and preparing for His return.
The stylized H of The History Channel logo has four deltas within, two pointing up and two down, one pair in each pillar. Each opposing pair signals the sons of god with the daughters of men.
The red elements are three in number and they are mixed with the white, signaling the triple helix blend of white divine sons with red earth Adamic daughters of men. When watching the History Channel and the logo is presented, these elements are added in a sequence to the H. The long base suggests one pyramid partly enclosing the Horus H, if you trace the lines suggested by the angled ends to a point. That point is at the top of the H crossbar. The two elements at the lower left by themselves form a right-pointing delta, which isn't really a signal delta in the default alignment because it points neither up nor down. However it is a right triangle. When these two on the left are considered together with the third red line on the bottom, another right triangle is formed.
Right triangles are signaling what is generally attributed to Pythagoras by the occult societies. The vertical element typically signifies the heavenly sons of god and the horizontal, the daughters of men, with the hypotenuse representing their union - the triple-helix offspring.
For the right pointing triangle of The History Channel logo, the hypotenuse itself is vertical, so it seems a little weak compared to similar symbols.
Another popular occult logo featuring a right triangle belongs to Verizon Wireless. It includes a red right triangle that means the same as every other Pythagoras version used for signaling Satan's schemes. Theirs is aligned so it resembles a check mark, seeming to signal "ok." Notice how the letter Z is called out, which should be familiar to those of you who follow this blog. Zeus. Z for Zeus, equivalent to Osiris, aka Satan, the serpent, dragon and father of Horus/Apollo/Jupiter, etc.
These images are from some promotional marketing materials I received in the snail mail a few months back. Real subtle, eh?
"The Technological Transformation Has Begun." Hint. Hint.
"Get Ready to Rule the World." Hint Hint.
Yeah, we get it. Brag, Brag, Brag. The Zeus/Horus ploy will bring the Beast and the mark of the Beast. But yet, my God reigns in truth and His kingdom is in Heaven now and will come on Earth as it is in Heaven - soon!
9) wherefore, also, God did highly exalt him, and gave to him a name that [is] above every name,
10) that in the name of Jesus every knee may bow -- of heavenlies, and earthlies, and what are under the earth --
11) and every tongue may confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:9-11 (Young's Literal Translation)
Just after I posted this blog I checked my email. The first thing I noticed was the email from Verizon Wireless - the "Media Store Newsletter" they spam their subscribers with. This doesn't really need commentary does it? It's just so much more of the same. Oh, Lord. What an onslaught.
Draw those who will be saved, Lord. Draw them near and love them up big.

Part 10 - "The Iron Giant" signaling the Beast agenda
Here's a link of interest, presented by a sister in the Lord who is awake and watching and seeing some remarkable things develop. The 2012 London Olympics Mascots (Blog: "Wake Up People!")
Once again, I'm returning to "The Iron Giant" (1999 - Warner Brothers), a vehicle of antichrist promotion that conceals and reveals the epic scheme of the serpent Lucifer. I'm continuing to work on a collateral study focused on the pharmaceutical strategy (Revelation 18:23), but it's not ready yet. Until it is, I'm going to keep some momentum going with another observation that exposes the antichrist scheme.
There's a subtle but deadly lie presented in the movie, delivered in such a way that the viewers are emotionally vulnerable during the hearing of the words spoken. Here's the setup for the scene.
The iron giant is carrying Hogarth around in the woods. They're having fun together and enjoying the natural beauty of rural Maine. They come upon a deer. The deer is not afraid of them. Birds are chirping, it's all very serene. The iron giant slowly extends his hand - the deer approaches - and they touch. It's a tender moment. The deer hears noises and moves away out of sight. Loud gunshots shatter the peace. Shades of Bambi! Hunters have killed the deer - oh my! Hogarth and the iron giant approach to see what happened, scaring off the hunters. Cue the violins. Dialogue ensues.
Hogarth: "It's dead."
Iron Giant: "Dead?"
The iron giant is shook up about it. Hogarth explains about the deer being dead because "they" shot it with the gun.
That evening, in a very saturated "blue" scene, the iron giant is not sleepy but clearly disturbed.
Hogarth: I know you feel bad about the deer. But it's not your fault. Things die. It's part of life. It's bad to kill. It's not bad to die.
Iron Giant: You'll die?
Hogarth: Yeah. Some day.
Iron Giant: I die?
Hogarth: I know. You're made of metal, but you have feelings and you think about things, and that means you have a soul - and souls don't die.
Iron Giant: Soul?
Hogarth: Mom says it's something inside all good things and that it goes on for ever and ever.
The iron giant rolls over and looks up into the starry night.
Iron Giant: Souls don't die.
The music resolves with a beautiful flourish, and the iron giant and all who identify with him are content.
So, in Hogarth's Mom's philosophy, which the iron giant now subscribes to, it doesn't matter what you're made of. If you have feelings and you think about things, you qualify for eternal life, you have an eternal soul, and you can take comfort in that understanding of life and death. So then, if that's true, if you're made of metal like the iron giant, or, if you were, say, made of miry clay with iron mixed in (as in, having accepted the mark of the Beast, worshiping the Beast), you can rest assured knowing that you've got things covered in the "life and death" department. Hogarth's Mom's philosophy is pretty common, isn't it? The problem is - it's a LIE! Many have fallen prey to this deadly lie. It's a setup. This movie is sly.
More to come... Lord willing!

Part 9 - "The Iron Giant" signaling the Beast agenda
In the previous post, some eight-pointed stars were featured as occult symbols, some of which were presented during the Warner Brothers animated feature from 1999 called The Iron Giant. I'm opening this post with one more example, the flag of the UK. Some folks may take offense at the idea of the Union Jack as an occult symbol, yet, it is just that! It signals the great secret just like the flag of Israel, the USA and many, many other nations.
Those who understand the symbolic closing ceremonies of the 2008 Summer Olympics from Beijing should immediately recognize the significance of the flag's appearance on David Beckham's jersey during a climax of the London Presentation. The flag of the UK would not have appeared if it didn't support and magnify the occult signaling of his role in the drama, but it did, and the eight pointed star was the perfect companion element as this man-star was seen in ritual magic launching the dragon seed from the heavens to earth through the open dimensional portal.
The Union Jack (See The story of the United Kingdom and the Union Flag) is a composite of three flags, representing three kingdoms united under this banner. This triplex feature gives added emphasis to the eight-pointed star as a triple helix DNA portal. You may have noted the meaning of the red and white banding, itself a signal of the mixing of the divine sons of god with the seed of Adamic men as iron is mixed with clay. You can bet this flag with its powerful occult signaling is going to exploited in a BIG way when promotional images start rolling out for the 2012 Summer Olympics planned for London!
By the way, the "Tower of Babel" being constructed as the city and event's icon is sooooooo appropriate!
Since the flag of the UK is the subject here, I have to at least mention the flag of Wales, which was apparently left out due to its being considered as a principality of England. Here's an image of the flag of Wales. Its features are easily interpreted and the meaning is clear. The divine sons of god join with the earthly daughters of men and bear the dragon's offspring. If they had included it, well, its easy to picture the result. More of the same!

Signs of Neanderthals Mating With Humans
The focus is once again on the star symbols that conceal and reveal the serpent Lucifer's antichrist scheme, presented in the animated feature The Iron Giant" (1999 - Warner Brothers).
An eight-pointed star is equivalent to the six-pointed star but with the addition of a horizontal divider, the horizon line separating heaven and earth. The number eight emphasizes the new creation that will be the union of the heavenly and earthly - the triple helix DNA offspring. I believe it also references Noah the Eighth (as presented in the "Milk Hill 8" crop sign of 8/8/08), due to the importance of the counter-flood perspective from which this mark-of-the-Beast kind of incursion can be viewed.
The popular image of what is called Solomon's Seal is a good example of the eight-pointed star. It appears as the six points of the two deltas plus two more from the horizontal divider. This is a really powerful occult image! Most of the individual elements have already been addressed in this blog in one or more posts as signifying the great secret, but it's appropriate to offer a review.
This is a hexagram inscribed within a circle that resembles the simpler form used for the invocation of demonic entities. The circle is itself the serpent ouroboros. The circle divided in two, horizontally, presents the Hermetic Maxim: "As above, so below." The lighter heavenly air is above the darker earthly water. The waterline marks the horizon with the reflection of the heavenly visible in the earthly. The "iron cross" in the center aligns with the vertical drawn between the uppermost and lowermost points of the opposing deltas, and the transverse horizontal divider. This four-pointed cross fits neatly inside the hexagon formed by the union of the two deltas and is white to represent the divinity of their offspring. The male heavenly upward pointing delta is white and the opposing female earthly delta is black. The head is white and the body is black. The royal crown is triple tiered, representing one tier for each strand of DNA in the hybrid Beasts that are promised kingdoms. The beard is likewise a trident. The deltas appear as truncated pyramid bodies, with capstone heads.
Another inspired example of such a layered star is found at the Vatican, in St. Peter's Square. This one is punctuated by the pyramid-topped obelisk relocated from Heliopolis (On) Egypt under commission of the emperor Caligula. Many of the above observations apply.
Such a star marks the doors of the barn where the iron giant first stayed, in Hogarth's care. A barn is where you might expect a Beast to be kept. The star appropriately marks the barn doors because it represents a dimensional portal. One is presented on the outside of the front door and another on the inside of the back door presumably providing for passage both in and out of the barn.
The stars on the red and white sweater Hogarth wears are of this eight-pointed variety. I addressed the meaning of the sweater a few posts back (Part 5). Comparing the meaning of the sweater to that of the eight-pointed stars reveals how they are companion signals, multiplying their effectual influence.
In this next image we see Hogarth signaling the great secret with both hands while wearing the symbolic sweater, plus the amazingly richly symbolic serving bowl on the dining room table, plus the checkerboard floor in the illuminated kitchen-temple and - a curious eight-pointed star on the wall! This star features star burst rays with its central face displaying a serpent and what looks like an astrological image (See insert for enlargement). This element may be presenting us with a particular heavenly alignment on a particular date, perhaps involving the star Sirius that is assigned such reverence among the esoteric Freemasons.
More coming, Lord willing!
The Iron Giant" (1999 - Warner Brothers) is a vehicle of antichrist promotion that conceals and reveals the epic scheme of the serpent Lucifer. This seventh post in the series continues to expose this scheme through the animated feature's symbolic imagery that is both visual and non-visual. In this post, star symbols are the focus.
The Bible uses the star as a metaphor to represent angelic beings. (See What Was it That is Called the Star of Bethlehem?)
The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lamp stands are the seven churches.
Revelation 1:20b
This metaphor is widely leveraged in occult symbolism because star images are very powerful and most people are unaware of what they signify. Of course, many kinds of star-like structures and images are naturally occurring and quite innocent, like the snowflake and hexagonal forms like the cells of a honeycomb. What signals their being leveraged against you is the context. Many people will recognize an inverted five-pointed star as a evil symbol, especially when inscribed within a circle, but when it's not inverted, or has four, six or eight points, a star generally won't alert suspicion. Yet, it often should.
In the plot of The Iron Giant the giant is killed in the sky, blown up while intercepting a missile. In this image we see Hogarth looking up at a star that is the radiant light from the blast. The iron giant is a messianic figure who sacrifices himself to save people and is later resurrected. The star supports that theme, presenting us with a cross, which in most peoples' minds represents the instrument of Christ's crucifixion. (Technically, Y'shua was more likely hung on a tree that resembled a vertical stake with no horizontal cross member, but I digress.) The form of the iron giant star is one you might recognize as a Celtic cross, with concentric rings of light around the intersection.
I perceive more layers of symbolism in this. The iron giant, who, in the official synopsis, is stated to have "fallen from the stars," has ascended to once again to become a star. A fallen star represents a fallen angel, what Enoch refers to as a Watcher and Genesis 6 refers to as a son of god. The iron giant really represents the antichrist Beast as a counterfeit messiah, which is to say he is a hybrid god-man. He is a cross between god and man, the four pointed star. The vertical represents the heavenly sons of god, the horizontal; the earthly daughters of men, the intersection; their union. What Hogarth is looking at is an end that is a beginning, a emblem that is both a "death star" and a "star of Bethlehem."
Stars are more frequently pictured with six points, the number of man. The six pointed star compares to the hexagram. These both resolve to the essential opposing deltas that signal the sons of god with the daughters of men and their triple helix offspring. If you've ever heard of a hex being put on someone you've heard reference to the use of this six pointed symbol as a demonic portal. When inscribed in a circle it's the primary symbol through which demons are invoked, invited to pass through as a dimensional portal.
The six pointed star is featured in several scenes including this one in Hogarth's bedroom, pictured in a snapshot on the right. You may recognize this from an earlier post where I featured the cross that marks the window as a dimensional portal. Companion signal elements often appear to make the spell more potent, and as commonly found in this movie we find it here in the stars on the wallpaper. One of them is enlarged in the insert so you can identify it more easily. This particular version is as an eight pointed star that is missing its horizontal elements.
You should be grasping in this series the reality that the agents and agencies behind this vehicle know the scheme, and that, by the grand scope and scale of the themes and thematic elements, it must be orchestrated by the master of deceit himself; Satan. You should also be growing in awareness that this father of lies and all who serve him are only really serving the greater and sovereign Yahweh's purposes, who is granting discernment to those of us who watch in obedience in this late hour.
The six pointed stars you see here should be familiar.
Walmart, the corporate giant often hated for the devastating effect their stores typically have on small town life and economies, and also known for their use of in-store subliminals, identifies itself with the six pointed star. Their motto, "Live Better," should tip you off to their complicity in the triple helix DNA "upgrade" scheme that will counterfeit the life that is truly Life.
The medical community is replete with occult symbols promoting the spells of antichrist delusion. Red and blue four-pointed-star crosses and six pointed stars are everywhere! As recently documented from such as NCR's marketing sequence, ObamaCare imagery and various PositiveId attributes, you should be convinced beyond any shadow of a doubt that the mark of the beast will be popularly introduced in the context of the medical center through the agency of health care professionals.
To be continued, Lord willing!
Hand Signals of the Great Dark Secret: Triple Helix DNA / Mark of the Beast
Hand signals are used to convey meanings that are frequently esoteric. In the animated feature, The Iron Giant (which I'm in the midst of blogging about), Hogarth momentarily signals the great secret with both hands. Since this is, in itself, such a big deal, I'm dedicating this post to exposing this class of signs that was first brought to my attention through Mike Hoggard's excellent DNA series.
Here's a snapshot of his hand signaling. On both hands we see three fingers apart from the others while his whole body is rather awkwardly and unnaturally posed. Both of Hogarth's hands are signaling the great secret - triple-helix DNA.
The triple-helix hand signals are often presented in ways and contexts that relate it to the heavenly sons of god procreating with the earthly daughters of men, so that we don't miss the connection. The offspring from this union are brought forth in the transformation of Adamic double helix man into a serpentine triple helix genetic hybrid. This is related to what the Bible calls the mark of the beast.
A calling out of three fingers or three points with the fingers or even hiding the three makes the sign. You'll notice a variety of forms, but each instance of the class calls out a triple. Here are some examples of this class of signals.
Baphomet, the androgynous Satan, is pictured signaling with both hands, with the right pointing up (blessing - heavenly sons) and the left pointing down (cursing - earthly daughters). Framed between these signals we see the composite heavenly serpent male and earthly female features. In the snapshot above, Hogarth's left hand signal pointed down and his right hand was pointing slightly upwards, directly at the iron giant Beast's animate left hand (that was just out of frame).
This angelic being knows the secret, flashing the sign with her right hand pointing up.
The heirophant from Aleister Crowley's Tarot deck conceals and reveals the secret. He is signaling with his left hand forming the sign pointing down, and, with the triquetra on the wand in his right hand pointing up. Notice how a human-star / Adam-angel composite being is positioned between them! This hybrid of heaven and earth appears inside the upside-down pentagram, and the signaling arms are this pentagram's side "wings." This is powerful magical symbolism.
By the way, that version of the triquetra is the one associated with Led Zeppelin's John Bonham on the Led Zeppelin IV album that featured "Stairway to Heaven." Are you seeing a theme here? The triple helix DNA transformation IS the stairway to heaven sought by the deceived! Another band member, Jimmy Page, owned an occult bookstore and published Crowley's books on magick. Jimmy bought Crowley's house on Loch Ness and was known to practice Crowley's black magick. Does he know something about the great secret?
From an image at the Vatican, a goddess signals with her left hand while holding the companion symbol, the ouroboros.
The Masons who built the cathedral in Metz presented us with this enigmatic figure of a monk. Blindfolded and squatting in the daughters of men symbol, he signals us with his upward pointing right hand that the daughters of men are blind to the secret of the triple helix scheme plotted against them.
There are examples of this signaling in the religious art of many cultures. Here's one you might recognize, called the Vulcan salute. Yes, Mr. Spock knows the secret!
Notice how this hand signal is done pointing up with the right hand. See how it not only forms a trident but also presents a daughters-of-men downward pointing delta, which cleverly forms the matching counterpart to the right hand up signal. Leonard Nimoy, the actor who played Mr. Spock in the original Star Trek series, devised this sign himself.
Do you know what was special about the Star Trek character Mr. Spock? He was half human and half Vulcan, a hybrid conceived of a space alien father and born of an earthly human mother. Think about that for a moment.
Do you know what is usually spoken when this hand sign is made? Live long and prosper. Think about it! The mark of the beast is an anti-death solution (Revelation 9:6) counterfeiting eternal life. Get it?
There is a secret plot for a DNA transformation to make a triple helix beast out of you, remade in the image of the serpent. The Vulcan salute is another element coming through the science fiction genre bearing the mark of "iron giant" influence.
To what does Leonard attribute the inspiration for this clever sign? "In his autobiography 'I Am Not Spock,' Nimoy wrote that he based it on the Priestly Blessing performed by Jewish Kohanim with both hands, thumb to thumb in this same position, representing the Hebrew letter Shin, which has three upward strokes similar to the position of the thumb and fingers in the salute. The letter Shin here stands for Shaddai, meaning 'Almighty (God)'. Nimoy wrote that when he was a child, his grandfather took him to an Orthodox synagogue. There he saw the blessing performed and was very impressed by it." (Vulcan salute - Wikipedia)
An example appears on the right (from a gravestone, appropriately enough, since receiving the mark of the beast guarantees death). In addition to what is signaled by the individual hands, an upward pointing delta is formed between them. This is balanced by the sons-of-god sign's mate, the containing shape like an inverted bowl that represents the female womb.
The following is a quote from Rabbi Yonassan Gershom. "We come now to the most famous Jewish influence on Vulcan culture, the 'live long and prosper' hand gesture. This 'Vulcan salute,' as it has come to be called, was invented on the set by Leonard Nimoy during the filming of the second-season opener, 'Amok Time.' In this episode, Spock goes into something like a male estrus cycle, called pon farr in the Vulcan language. Comparing himself to a salmon swimming upstream to spawn, Spock tells Kirk that he must return to Vulcan to mate with his betrothed bride, T'Pring, or die trying. The wedding ceremony would be the first glimpse of Spock's homeworld in the series." (The Jewish Origin of the Vulcan Salute)
This hand signal was inspired in the context of presenting the unchangeable nature of male aliens and their mating ritual. I think it's just remarkable that this sign came to Leonard in such a fitting context, which speaks to me of how the sovereign God Yahweh presides over such things as this! It also shows how the devil is quick to capitalize whenever folks are willing to represent spiritual truths in ways that are not even graven images but formed with body parts! But of course, printing the image to film does then make it a graven image.
I want to note that, just because people are Jewish, or Rabbis, or Christians, or Priests, the practice of a thing does not change the nature of that thing. A whitewashed sepulcher is still an unclean grave with a dead body inside.
The following is another quote from Rabbi Yonassan Gershom's article. "Back in the 1960s, hippies who watched 'Amok Time' thought the salute was a variation of the two-fingered peace sign. But we Jews knew better. The Vulcan salute came not from protest marches, but from the pulpit of Nimoy's childhood synagogue." I would add that Gershom was right, but so were the hippies!
The peace sign is basically the same meaning as the Vulcan salute. Three fingers are called out, plus a V is formed. Other popular signs that call out three fingers or points have the same meaning. While these take various forms and are recognized under different names and seen in different contexts, they have the same underlying source and derivation - Satan, who knows what is coming and knows how to signal it!
[updated: 7/2/2011]
Consider the seemingly innocent Boy Scout and Girl Scout signs and salutes and the OK sign, which is being used to signal 666. Not so innocent, are they?
Now, there is a related set called the sign of the horns (goat Mendes or Baphomet), the hook-em horns, and the Karana mudra. These appear to be in a very special class! As you'll see in this video by Diran Lyons and Stephen Mears, an array of hand signal images where the third and fourth fingers are together are presented in such a way that shows this unnatural position is intentional and meaningful. This is an occult hand signaling that appears extensively in classic religious art, in Disney cartoons where women are involved in supernatural/magickal activity, and as signaled by Hollywood celebrities.
When I saw this, it occurred to me that the deep meaning signaled by connecting the fingers three and four was what I have been referring to as "Three Things and then Four," which is a key secret relating to time. For those behind the signaling, it points towards the season when the one in whom they hope will arise as the Beast of Revelation 13:1. The signal points to when he comes to power and reigns, and those evil beings associated with the flood of Noah's day who are buried in the Earth since the time of their binding will be released for a season to execute judgement.
Hand signals that don't seem to fit in this category are the thumbs-up or down, pointing with the index finger or pointing up to signal #1, or another number of fingers held up to represent the number, or the "bird." I recommend avoiding that one, regardless. And the Seig Heil and Olympic salute. :) I don't think legitimate innocent instances of baseball's "two outs" sign or the thumb and little finger "call me" telephone handset sign really apply, but those that intend to signal some truth or oath (which we are commanded in the Bible NOT to take but rather to let our word be true) are without exception to be avoided for what they truly signal.
One last item in closing. Consider the Roman Catholic practice of crossing oneself. This hand signal-like gesture marks one with the cross. Making the vertical is to signify the sons of god. Making the horizontal signifies the daughters of men. The cross is their union. Really.
The Iron Giant (1999 - Warner Brothers) is a vehicle of antichrist promotion which compares to others I've presented in this blog that conceal and reveal the schemes of the enemy of our souls.
In the previous post I introduced some of the different kinds of triple helix DNA / mark-of-the-beast signaling done by Hogarth. Continuing here, we see Hogarth in his bedroom wearing a long sleeve tri-color striped shirt. The color banding of the shirt resembles the Scarlet snake. If the previous post is fresh in your mind you might relate that by name to the red serpentine flourishes appearing like scarlet snakes in the upstairs hall's wallpaper. Triple Helix DNA!
If you've been following this blog for a few months, it should remind you of Clark Kent's tie, as worn on the cover of a Superman comic from 1967. (If the link to Clark Kent and Superman doesn't mean anything to you, you have some catching up to do!) The Scarlet snake tie is looped around his neck, snaking down and appearing right next to the scarlet serpent featured as the letter S on his shield.
The meaning of the shirt is the same as that tie. The color scarlet is red and, again, because Adam means "red earth," scarlet represents Adamic mankind. The snake references Satan's identity as a serpent. In the Scarlet snake, the Adam and the serpent are as one! Hogarth's shirt, banded like the Scarlet snake, signals the hybrid serpent-man with triple banded triple helix DNA!
The serpent is really crafty and subtle, yet Y'shua alerts us to his schemes and makes us wise!
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
Here's the cover of the comic where Clark Kent wears the Scarlet snake tie. The cover is presented upside-down on purpose because this is the alignment where the Royal Arch in the Freemasonic Temple appears, with the checkerboard on the floor where it belongs and the other elements all in proper position. The comic book cover and The Iron Giant are companion works of the gods of Freemasonry. The allusion to Freemason and cartoonist William Hogarth wasn't for naught, was it?
If you haven't watched the movie you might be thinking that my connecting The Iron Giant with Clark Kent and Superman is a bit weak, but, during the movie, Hogarth introduced the iron giant to some of his comics, including this one you see on the left (Action Comics #188 January, 1954). The iron giant responded to Hogarth's comparing the giant and his mission to Superman and his mission by identifying himself as Superman, donning the shield. Later in the movie, when it is discovered that the iron giant can fly, Hogarth coaches him to fly like Superman with his arms outstretched.
So, Hogarth adopted the Clark Kent identity by wearing the Scarlet snake apparel. The iron giant adopted the "man of steel" identity (iron/steel), donning the serpentine S. Instead of seeing the S in a shield (which is a downward pointing delta and therefore inappropriate in this context as a daughters-of-men symbol) we see it inscribed in a magical circle that is, in this snapshot, cleverly notched at the bottom with an upward pointing delta to mark it as the appropriate sons-of-god symbol. Superman represents the Beast and all those who will be transformed from a "Clark Kent" to a Superman identity by way of the Scarlet snake / mark of the Beast.
In the snapshot of Hogarth in the bedroom you see him touching the rug. The rug is signaling, too! Compare the green woven rug to the green woven serving bowl addressed in part 3 of this series, where I made this observation: "The lower earthly part of the bowl is woven, indicating how the iron is mixed with miry clay but in such a way that 'one shall not cleave to another.'"
In this view, the rug is a companion signal element. When I pictured him in the red and white sweater, the plate with the oak leaf delta/triskele was a companion signal element. When I pictured him in the sporty shirt, the red serpentine wallpaper was a companion signal element. The way of occult signaling is to add symbol to symbol, layer upon layer, time after time. That's how the job gets done. Until we catch on. Spread the word. It is the Son who sets us free indeed!
More coming - Lord willing!

Max Payne 3 -- When Rockstar 'pushes the envelope'
Yesterday Rockstar made public the system specifications for Max Payne 3. Let's have a look.
Minimum specs:
- Intel Dual Core 2.4GHz or AMD Dual Core 2.6GHz
- GeForce 8600 GT 512MB or Radeon HD 3400 512 MB
- 35GB HDD space
35GB of disk space?! That's crazy. Well the rest seems reasonable. Anyway, we all know what minimum specs. mean, so now let's see what they recommend:
- i7 3930K 6 Core x 3.06GHz or AMD FX8150 8 Core x 3.6 GHz
- 16GB RAM
- GeForce® GTX 680 2GB or Radeon HD 7970 3GB
Mother. Of. God.
They might be onto to something, who knows? But we all saw how things went with GTA IV... So what are your impressions?
EDIT: My bad for not verifying the information properly. The information was initially presented as such on a couple of blogs and websites I visit. However, it appears that what Rockstar meant is that the game will run on anything between the specs listed. The 35GB of disk space remains though and I am still skeptical about Rockstar optimizing the game for PC.
Almighty ODST
"They can't bitch at us for the game not running at 60fps on their mid level systems if we just recommend the best there is!" That's my impression.
Nahawand
yourgrandma
Must be some pretty lengthy uncompressed prerendered cutscenes...
tzhu07
Totally misleading thread.
They posted a range of specs. So for example with the RAM, they said 2-16GB.
We have no way of knowing exactly what they mean by that.
Derangel
Too bad the game isn't going to resemble Max Payne in any way and will be nothing but a huge disappointment to anyone that believes it will be a worthy part of the franchise.
mr_zen256
Derangel said:
How so? Looks pretty sweet from all the vids!
Holy shitballs @ 35gb install... That's impressive lol
mr_zen256 said:
It looks nothing like the first two games. There is nothing about the game that makes me think "this is Max Payne".
ShuttleLuv
Agreed 100% and those requirements aren't that taxing, hell my 2600k is at 5.1. Not everyones is obviously, but still....
True, the tone and setting does seem quite far removed from the originals. I can understand how someone would be disappointed with the direction of the new title. Mostly I'm just looking forward to the gameplay and seeing the engine in action.
It might end up being a good shallow shooter, but they're calling it Max Payne 3 so if they're not making Max Payne 3 a real Max Payne game I can't I have much interest in it. I'm hoping I'm wrong, but I don't have any faith in Rockstar's ability to craft a compelling and deep story.
Plague_Injected
Rockstar does a better job of it than Remedy, at this stage.
The stories of Max Payne 1 and 2 are not compelling or deep by any stretch of the imagination. The narratives of those games had character development and introspective reflection as their strengths, rather than the storylines themselves. GTA4 and RDR did characters very well, so I don't think Rockstar are certain to fall short.
Honestly...I hope that's true and not only that but that it looks absolutely stunning, that would be completely amazing and might give me a reason to actually think about upgrading for once!
Stayfr0sty
At least they are being more modest/honest then DICE.......
Judging by the reviews of Ivy Bridge, I don't think us Sandy users need to be in any hurry to race out and upgrade just yet
I'd like to see how the game utilizes 8GB of system RAM, let alone 16GB, lol.
I'm not sure what is their intention of simply listing the latest hardware in the market as their requirement, but I don't believe it for a second. Well, perhaps the minimum is true of course... But not the upper limits
The recommended specs for the RAM is likely to come from entire system usage and not specific requirements for the game. So assuming the OS and other background tasks may well eat 2-4Gb of system RAM they recommend a total of 16Gb
That does beg the question of what they need 8-12Gb of RAM for, I can't wait to find out being that I have 16Gb installed
Skripka
MP1 was a great game..MP2 was mediocre at the end of the day in comparison. MP3 ain't on my shopping list.
PanzeR-
How can the minimum be 2gb yet they recommend 16gb?
GibsonEX
Did they ever release any PC footage yet or only console videos? Supposedly they are developing PC version "parallel" with console version of the game (whatever that means in their world). Maybe PC will get decent game after all.
Intel_Hydralisk
PanzeR- said:
The minimum probably boots up the game and then runs it at 15 seconds per frame (yes, SPF, not FPS).
Then they didn't bother to optimize at all so they recommended top of the line stuff to get 30 fps.
I have no idea why it would need a 35 gb install. How would the consoles handle that?
Q-BZ
True but what I do see I like and think it's going to be a pretty damned good game on its own merits.
defiant007
Intel_Hydralisk said:
Could be printed on a dual layered bluray for PS3 and 4 dual layered DVDs for 360....although whatever is taking up all that space will likely be significantly down sampled/compressed for consoles.
defiant007 said:
It probably only "needs" 35GB free for installation...actual installed space will be much less. Would be my guess anyhow.
It's weird to watch people get worked up about this. Whether it's good or bad I just sit back and can only think all of tripe that's been released over the last couple years with the same exact hype and turn out to be mediocre at best. I just can't get excited by releases like this anymore.

Skripka said:
Gah, like GreenManGaming games, they need heaps of space to install games because they download compressed files, then to extract they have to create temporary files, then using the extracted files it actually installs the game. All told you need a massive amount more space than the final game actually needs.
Either that, or the game probably has some massive uncompressed files. Remember Force Unleashed and it's need for 25GB of free space
Rustyy
It will be great game and good max payne sequel.

Also gameplay looks awesome. I hope story will be good too.
Feel the same way, the hyperbolic and deceptive marketing employed by publishers has made me suspicious of all game releases these days.....so much so that I now refuse to pre-order ANY game regardless of a given developer's past track record. Have been burned far too many times to risk paying full price on a mediocre game which I cannot return or sell second hand.
KatalDT
I saw it at Pax East, looks fun. Never played Max Payne 1 or 2 so I don't know how 'loyal' it is.
Viper87227
I'd almost prefer this. MP1 and 2 were great games, but that doesn't mean I want more of the same. I've seen enough run down druggie ridden apparment complexes in NY that I'm not exactly clammoring for more. If they can take the core gameplay of Max Payne and throw it into a brand new enviroment, I'm all about it.
MorgothPl
I will wait for reviews to see how it runs on my config. If it's GTA4 case again, with bad port and optimisation, I'm getting X360 version, rather then upgrade PC. Will be cheaper and same fun.
FearTheCow
I call bull crap on the recommended specs and will put $1 on the minimum specs being the recommended specs when the game ships.
Plague_Injected said:
I thought the characters in vanilla GTA4 were the worst they've ever presented. I couldn't force myself to finish the game because I really didn't give a shit about any of the main characters. RDR, however, did a pretty good job.
Max Payne 1-2 were praised for their story due to the graphic novel noir narrative.
I'm 100% convinced that this is not going to be anything like Max Payne 1 or 2 and have been convinced of that ever since they started trickling out media for the game. Having said that I'm not damning it for being a bad game quite yet, I like most of what Rockstar do they are very good at making fun/entertaining games, it's a shame to see the Payne name abused like it is but then it could be a lot of fun anyway so I'm waiting to judge for myself.
It has been confirmed by Rockstar that the 360 version will be on 2 DVDs.
Deep was probably the wrong word, but Remedy managed to craft an amazing noir experience both times. GTA4, at least the base game, had horrible characters. Niko is beyond horrid. Not in terms of personality, but consistency. The writers altered his personality to fit the missions he was in, there was no character development just character alterations. They did a lot better on the expansions, but nothing I'd call too amazing. RDR did a much much better job, but the story was kind of a mess at times. Maybe I'm wrong and they can create a nice linear story. I want MP3 to be good, I want to be wrong I just haven't seen anything that makes me get my hopes up about it feeling like a Max Payne game.

Let's see how many people will now upgrade to 16GB of ram because of this lol.

thats because force unleashed had uncompressed HD audio files that were for PS3/360 in it that the game didn't even use on PC(yes i checked, i removed the files and the game ran completely fine without them). so i'm going to take a guess that MP3 will be the exact same thing.. as far as the requirements go sounds more like advertising and WOW factor then anything else. honestly can't see how the game would require a top of the enthusiast system to play it. but then again knowing how bad the GTA4 port was, its quite possible it would actually need a system like that.

Brewers begin receiving COVID-19 vaccinations, team up with City of Milwaukee to raise awareness
The Milwaukee Brewers are going public in the push to crush the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Monday, the same day vaccinations were opened to everyone 16 or older in Wisconsin, the team announced it was working with the City of Milwaukee on an effort to promote the availability and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines.
To that end, the Brewers released a public service announcement documenting a team vaccination event that occurred over the weekend at American Family Field. Players Christian Yelich, Brent Suter, Keston Hiura and Freddy Peralta were among those vaccinated and took part in the PSA.
Meanwhile, the City of Milwaukee has created the hashtag #CRUSHCOVIDMKE to help support the campaign on social media platforms.
"This is basically opening day for the general population," Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said. "Just as last week was opening day for the Brewers, and they had that great come-from-behind victory, we want to have a great come-from-behind victory in crushing COVID.
"A way for us to do it is to make sure that everybody — everybody — who is eligible gets up and swings the bat. That's what this is all about. And I think that having the Brewers involved in this sends such a positive message to people of all ages and from all backgrounds.
"It's really about getting as many people the shot as possible as quickly, as safely and as efficiently as we can."
Information and links to sign up for vaccinations are available at milwaukee.gov/covidvax.
'Good chunk' of Brewers vaccinated
With COVID-19 still an issue in the major leagues – the Washington Nationals and New York Mets had their season-opening series postponed after four Nationals players tested positive — the fact the Brewers were able to offer team-wide vaccinations with the help of the Milwaukee Health Department was significant.
President of baseball operations David Stearns, who had to navigate a false positive test on the Brewers last Wednesday, is well aware of the effect vaccinating the team's players and staff will have moving forward.
Major League Baseball has stated it will relax COVID-19 protocols for teams that have 85% of their players and traveling parties fully vaccinated.

Wisconsin vaccine FAQ: Who's eligible, where to get it and what's next
"We're very mindful that the way we get back to normal, the way we keep our players healthy, the way we keep our community healthy is to get as many people vaccinated as possible," Stearns said. "That's true within our organization, our clubhouse and it's certainly true within our greater community.
"We also recognize that our players are role models. And to the extent that we can serve as an example, to the extent that our players can perhaps encourage others to go get the vaccine, to take the public health measures that our officials are urging us to take, that's a positive that's going to benefit our entire community and we're very cognizant of that.
"Lastly, this benefits the game. The more players and people within our universe that we can get vaccinated, the more assurances that our games are going to go off without a hitch for the entirety of the season, and the faster we get back to potentially full houses at American Family Field, which I know we're all looking forward to and which will require a very determined vaccination effort on the part of our entire community."
Stearns wouldn't specify the percentage of players who have been vaccinated so far but did confirm they received the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine. That's key from a timing standpoint in that they should receive immunity faster and won't have to undergo a second vaccination.
"What I will say is at this point, we have a good chunk of our roster vaccinated," Stearns said. "This has been an ongoing conversation, an educational effort by our physicians, and really, a very robust dialogue among players. Players taking this issue very seriously and discussing it amongst themselves and then everyone making their own individual choice.
"But I'm very pleased with the initial turnout. This is an effort that is going to be ongoing. It's not over. We'll continue this in the coming weeks, and I'm very pleased with the opening response."
It comes as no surprise that Suter, one of the most socially conscious players not only on the Brewers but also in the major leagues, has stepped to the forefront.
"Once I talked with the doctors, it became very evident that not only was this vaccine very effective, but it was also very safe," Suter said. "I just tried to do my best to encourage teammates to take a look at the research, look at the studies, and I encourage other people too – 'Hey, this is a safe and effective way to do our part and beat this thing.'
"Wearing the masks, the distancing was trying to curb it. Now, we can beat this thing, and it became a very easy decision for me."
Suter reveals he had COVID-19
Suter also divulged the previously unknown news that he and his wife were infected with COVID-19 in the offseason. Suter was the first to contract it, from what he believes was a routine trip to the grocery store.
"It was really surprising," he said. "One morning I woke up a little off, and as the day went on I got really tired and achy, mid-back stiffness. Got tested that next day, came back positive. My wife got tested a couple days later, sure enough I'd given it to her.
"My experience was more like a medium flu that lasted for 10 days. I've been sicker in my life, but I'd never been that out of it for that long. My wife was more like a bad cold for 10 days. We both lost our taste and smell for about two weeks, then we got better.
"I had a little pleurisy in my lungs, but that went away and I was able to build up after that. But it was not a fun 10 days."
The Brewers had a sellout crowd of 11,740 at American Family Field on opening day and near-sellouts both Saturday and Sunday as they welcomed fans back for the first time since September 2019.
City of Milwaukee Health Commissioner Kirsten Johnson gave the Brewers high grades for the opening series with regard to the extensive COVID-19 mitigation plan they had in place.
"We did have inspectors on site on opening day Thursday, and from our perspective the plan that the Brewers submitted to the health department was quite robust and was followed closely," she said. "We were happy with the way things went down on Thursday, for sure.
"Then I actually had the opportunity to attend the game (Sunday) and was equally impressed. All the protocols were being followed, people were wearing masks, there was social distancing. A couple little tweaks here and there, but I personally felt safe. I was there with my family and we had a great time.
"I feel really good about where the Brewers are in terms of their mitigation efforts."

Main Title:
Documents concerning the YWCA of the U.S.A.'s programs and initiatives fighting racism, student movement actions against racism, a study of interracial Y-Teen conferences, and additional documents concerning interracial policy, committees and education efforts. Through the YWCA of the U.S.A. One Imperative passed at the 1970 national convention, the YWCA of the U.S.A. made the elimination of racism their priority for the following triennium. Program packets, pamphlets and correspondence announce the imperative and its implementation. Additional documents include papers on racism and institutional racism the the cover and contents for the June, 1968 of "YWCA Magazine," an issue devoted to racism. The National Student YWCA and its student associations are one of the driving voices behind the elimination of racism and the adoption of the public affairs platforms against racism. The Student Action Audits evaluate are a method for associations to self-evaluate their progress on these platforms. Following the action audits are documents concerning two incidents of student YWCA of the U.S.A. members involved in demonstrations. The first statements from Sandra Hayden describe her involvement in a scene at a courthouse where several students were forcibly removed for refusing to sit in their segregated sections. The second incident report tells of Java Thompson's involvement in local demonstrations and her resulting expulsion from Southern University. Additional materials concerning the National Student YWCA program and activities against racism include suggested methods for recruiting minorities to college campuses and minutes and reports of meetings to discuss interracial concerns of the student YWCA's. The study of interracial Y-Teen conferences in the South examines the effect these experiences have on the girls over a five year period. The report notes that it uses a conference that remained segregated over the period as an approximate control group in the study. Additional documents concerning the work of the YWCA of the U.S.A. against racism and increasing integration in the organization include committee reports and notes, a telegram sent to the White House following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and additional papers exploring topics of race, racism and the experience of the African American woman in the United States.

Roman Kenk Papers,
Descriptive Entry
Record Unit 7383
Kenk, Roman, 1898-
3.5 cu. ft. (3 record storage boxes) (1 document box)
The papers of Roman Kenk document his research on flatworms during all phases of his career. They include three series of correspondence covering the identification, acquisition, and exchange of specimens; the preparation and review of publications; and collecting work in Europe, Puerto Rico, and all regions of the United States. Also included are diaries documenting Kenk's daily activities as a Research Associate in the Department of Invertebrate Zoology, NMNH, from 1967 to 1987. The diaries also contain data from several collecting trips taken by Kenk.
Roman Kenk (1898-1988) was an invertebrate zoologist and authority on the morphology, ecology, and taxonomy of freshwater flatworms. Born in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia, he received his Ph.D. in zoology from the University of Graz, Austria, in 1921. From 1921 to 1938, Kenk taught zoology at the University of Ljubljana, except for the years 1931-1932 when he was a Rockefeller Foundation Fellow at the University of Virginia. Kenk emigrated to Puerto Rico in 1938, and became a naturalized United States citizen in 1942. He served as Professor of Biology at the University of Puerto Rico from 1938 to 1948, before moving to Washington, D.C., to become a bibliographer at the Library of Congress. After his retirement in 1966, Kenk was appointed Research Associate in the Department of Invertebrate Zoology, National Museum of Natural History (NMNH), where he was placed in charge of building the flatworm specimen collection and library. He remained at NMNH until 1987.
Kenk published over forty papers on flatworms. Nine invertebrates were named in his honor, including a family of flatworms called Kenkiidae. He donated his personal collection of flatworms to NMNH.

Tornadic supercells and funnel across Southern Illinois
About a 5 days prior, the models were showing that a potent system was going to push through the Midwest on November 17. As the time got closer, things looked better and better for a significant tornado outbreak to occur across Illinois and Indiana. Unseasonable moisture and warmth was going to couple with some ridiculous shear to make any storm that fired go supercellular and spin like a top. My plan was to get up early Sunday and stay local, making it to work by 2pm. Because of this, I was targeting Effingham, IL, which wasn't too far away from where I lived. Waking up the morning of the 17th, I noticed the sun shining through my window. Cloud cover had been a concern in terms of limiting instability, but that was not the case, which probably helped the Storm Prediction Center's decision to upgrade to a very large High Risk area. Stepping outside, you could just feel that the atmosphere was prime for severe weather. Michelle originally had to work, but was fortunately called off, so she joined me and we left shortly after 10:30am. Storms had already been going for about an hour at this point in northern and central Illinois and eastern Missouri, but were now just starting to cross the Mississippi River into southern Illinois where we could catch them. We headed toward I-70 to make our way northeast and get out well ahead of the storms, as they were moving at least 60mph. We stopped in Vandalia, IL to plan our next move. Cells to our north were tornado-warned, but given the distance and the very fast storm motion, there was no way we could catch them. That left us with three supercells in a north-south line coming toward us from the southwest. We headed south on Highway 51 get into better position. The middle storm went tornado-warned, followed by the southernmost one, and then the northernmost cell closest to us. When we saw the warning and rotation on the northernmost one, we realized we were in perfect position for it and could clearly see the base. We pulled over and watched it approach:
Shortly after we began watching it, it produced a long rope funnel that was visible for about a minute:
It dissipated and that was the last tornadic activity we saw out of that cell. We determined it was moving too fast for us to practically and safely stay up with it, so we watched it quickly move away to the northeast:
This storm would produce an EF2 tornado that tracked along I-70 east of Vandalia shortly after the above photo was taken. Meanwhile, the cell just to our south was looking mean (photo below), but there was no way we could catch it either. This was the cell that produced the deadly New Minden, IL EF4 tornado shortly before the photo below was taken.
We decided that we had pretty much done all we could do in terms of chasing, so we stayed in the same spot and watched as the storms raced away to the east (first photo below) and as a small cell associated directly with the cold front approached us from the west (second photo cluster below):
After this, we called the chase and headed back home. This was a hard event to "chase". When storms are moving at least 60mph, you don't really chase, but mostly set up in front of a storm and watch it race by.

Great Reveiws from our customers !
Our scheduled DJ "no showed" for our wedding. It ended up being a blessing in disguise because DJ Theo was our "rescue DJ" and he kept it "turned up"! In about an hour into our reception he was set up and getting the party started. He was receptive to songs the crowd wanted to hear, professional and cost a fraction of the price we paid for the "no show". I highly recommend him for any event you may have and will definitively use him again! Thank you!
DJ Theo is awesome! He did our wedding at the end of April and was fabulous. Our venue required us to use Theo's expertise not only for DJ'ing but to mic up our officiant and my niece that sang as well as do all the processional/recessional music. It all went off without a hitch. We gave Theo a few songs that we wanted to make sure were in his set list but other than that we let him do his thing, trusting he would observe our guests and know the audience he was keeping on the dance floor. He definitely did that and the energy of our wedding was great, we weren't surprised though as we see him do his thing on Friday's at Backyard as well. My wedding is over but would highly recommend and use him again if the occasion arises.
difference! Book DJ Theo.. you won't regret it!
DJ Theo is very easy to work with, prompt responses to emails, quick and easy set-up and break down and great with the kids at our pool party! I've already booked him for a future party.
I would highly recommend him for your next party!
will use him again for my next event.
Thank you so much for a great party! The event was a success! The kids danced the entire night! DJ Theo delivered!
We LOVED having DJ Theo at our event! He did an amazing job, everything was on cue and sounded great. Thank you!!
DJ Theo Delivered!!! My daughter's sweet 16 party was a great success; a big part of it was the music and the dance floor lighting that DJ Theo provided.
Very professional, I highly recommend him.
great party. My sister wanted me to attend as a guest, (not as the DJ) and the first guy that came to mind was DJ Theo.
Thank you so much for coming through for us on 80's night. You knew how to get the members on the dance floor!! I'm sure we will be calling you again!
Thanks for all the sweat you created with your music!! Especially your "Tiesto" collection turned this cold December night into a very hot one !!!!
enjoyable time for everyone, but has fun doing it himself.
working with him in the future. Ashburn Village Sports Pavilion gives him two thumbs up!
and it transformed the room into another room. He even had an original copy of Hail to the Redskins preformed by the band. Thanks for making our day AWSOME!!!!
together and recovered quite nicely with his own music that was actually better than what I had chosen. He's amazing, and truly a genuine guy. I cannot thank him enough.
Thank you so much for doing a fabulous job at our wedding (May 26, 2012) Everyone danced all night and had so much fun!! Thank you! You are the best!
Everyone had such a amazing time, your playlist was perfect and the lighting bar on the dance floor was a must!
Thank you so very much again, will spread the word to anyone in need.
We just wanted to thank you so much for Saturday! all of our guests had a wonderful time and our guests complimented us on how great u were! You were professional and fun!
Thanks for coming through for us again- and on the last minute.
Hey guys, I just wanted to pass on our standing ovation to your work on Saturday.
Theo, EXCELLENT playlist. Everyone has been raving about how great you were. Great selection of music, and great placement of songs throughout the night. You had a amazing ear for how the night should sound and flow, and it was executed perfectly. Amazing work man, will definitely be recommending you to all my friends.
YOU were awesome; thank you so much for making the music run so effortlessly. If you ever need a reference, we would be honored to give you one. You did a fabulous job and our ceremony would not have been the same without you.


I went into Bath and Body with a gift certificate wanting to buy some silicone cup cake pans, but alas they don't sell them in the store. I looked around and I found donut pans! My boys have been going over to the store every weekend getting donuts. I knew I could come up with a healthier option!
To make baked goods healthier I like to make them with at least 1/2 whole wheat flour and if I can add protein powder. That way you get more fiber, more nutrients and more protein.
This is my base recipe so expect to see some fun combinations to come in the future.
Mix flours, protein powder and baking powder in large bowl.
In small bowl mix eggs, vanilla, sweetner, and greek yogurt till smooth.
Pipe batter into donut pan. Hint: I used a sandwich bag and cut corner off bag.
Bake for 3-4 minutes – do not overcook or will become dry.


Getting to the center of security… Cognitio is a team of cyber security experts who came together as a powerhouse consultancy. They needed a modern, forward-thinking look, something that portrayed the intricacies of their business. We brought this look to collateral, their website, and powerpoint presentations.


One of the biggest questions we were left with at the end of The Force Awakens, aside from "Do you think Luke makes his own organic soap out there on that space island?" was "Who the heck are Rey's parents?" It's a question that won't be answered in the Star Wars universe until Episode VIII hits theaters late next year…unless you're a real smarty-pants like Daisy Ridley.
I thought a lot was answered in The Force Awakens. Then after the screening I went for a drink with my agent and everyone, and we were chatting away and I realised that oh, in their minds it's not answered at all!
Basically, Daisy Ridley is probably a spoiler-phobe's worst nightmare. She's the type of friend you'd never invite to see an M. Night Shyamalan film or over to binge-watch Westworld because her powers of perception are so great that she'd be calling twists left and right. And then when you're like, "Huh, I didn't notice that," Daisy would say, "Oh, well it seemed so obvious to me," but because she is probably a good friend, she would say this in a way that is very sincere and kind and not at all judgmental.
So maybe don't expect to know everything there is to know about Rey in Episode VIII — which hits theaters on December 15, 2017.


I have found more and more that my brides (and grooms) are really the people who I feel as though I could be forever friends with. Shannon and Kyle were actually a referral from my amazing cousin Anna Carter, who cuts and colors Shannon's beautiful auburn hair! When I met with Shannon, and her mom, I immediately knew that these are my people. I knew that their wedding was going to be absolutely stunning and hey, when you get married at the Jacksonville Public Library, you know that the wedding is going to be beautiful and modern! Shannon and Kyle's Jacksonville Public Library Wedding was something that I will treasure forever. Their details were so personal, their ceremony had a harpist, and their first look was the funniest I have seen yet! These two share a love and a sense of humor that is one of a kind. I loved being able to spend their wedding day with them wandering around the streets of downtown Jacksonville. Their wedding day was filled with fun, laughter, and friends, and I am so thankful to have been able to be part of their beautiful day. Thank you so much, and heres to the Dilks!

Q: How much velocity can a canister of fuel give a spaceship? I've recently considered the issue of how much velocity a canister of fuel can provide a 'spaceship'. I assumed we could approximate a basic solution If we know the mass of the fuel $m$, the mass of the ship $M$ and the amount of energy in the fuel $E$. So the energy density of the fuel is, $\frac{E}{m} = p$, which is constant. So the amount of velocity gained by an increment of fuel is equal to $\sqrt{\frac{p\cdot{dm}}{M+m}} = dv$. Since $dE = p\cdot{dm} = \frac{1}{2}(m+M)dv^2$. In order to find $v$, I needed to integrate the left hand side from m equals the total mass of the fuel to $m=0$ (assuming the canister is massless).
Is this correct? How, (if at all) is it possible to evaluate this integral?
P.S. I think I'm way off from this derivation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation
Can someone please lead me in the right direction?

A: The equation in the mentioned Wikipedia page is a special case of the general problem of motion equation for a system with variable mass that comes from the conservation of the momentum of the system. You can see the derivation of the pertinent equation at this page.
The  pure energetic approach in OP is not correct because the energy is conserved only in the full system, given by the rocket and the combusted fuels and also the heat produced in the combustion. The key parameter that determines the velocity of the roket is the expulsion velocity of the ejected propellant, that depends on the constructive characteristics of the roket.

A: ${d\over dv}v^2=2v$
Hence $dv^2=2vdv$
Therefore your equation would be
Integral of $\int {p\cdot dm\over m+M}= \int vdv$
