Criteria That Makes Octuplet IVF Plan Logical As Sick As It Is

I just returned home minutes ago from running to the post office and heard the following NPR radio program which has totally clicked within me unlike any other explanation has about the series of events that led to the octuplets recently born in California.

NPR host Michel Martin made an introductory statement that was so innocent and essential but yet easily overlooked to the segment entitled California Octuplets Raises About Ethics, Fertility that I wish the full statement was heard online as well but it does not appear to be at this point in time. I have sent a message to Ms. Martin and I hope that NPR adds the full introduction.

Unfortunately I cannot remember the exact phrase that was used but all we need to know is that Martin's statement innocently included the names Angelina Jolie and Nadya Suleman in the same sentence.

The introduction was so pure and succinct that I doubt Martin knows how laser like her statement has connected the dots to me that nothing has come as close to connecting.

It is my belief that a recognized or near subliminal fascination with Angelina Jolie is the missing link in Suleman's quest to have such an expanded family size given everything about her on paper.

The first moment I saw Suleman I instantly told my wife that she was attractive but I could not put my finger on what it was that implied something was out of the norm in her demeanor and beauty strictly from the neck up.

As a fan of the FX show Nip Tuck, I also thought that Suleman possibly had some plastic surgery on her lips or face since her right side of her mouth looked a little odd.

But to hear the name Angelina Jolie mentioned in the same sentence with Suleman, the dots quickly come together like a mosquito to a zapper.

This is still my own personal conclusion but like a hungry dog on a meat wagon, you will have to come up with something very good to get me to change my position:)

Although it is as macabre and paranormal than I prefer to contemplate for a period of time, bells are ringing like a game show jackpot being hit with 100% pure accuracy.

The closest explanation that I had before hearing the names and instantly seeing the link was it was a combined sign of generational forces (Suleman and her parents all inclusive) that made Suleman's decisions more logical in her own mind because nothing is logically associated within anyone else's.

The Holy Bible lets us know that God wanted us to be fruitful and multiply but He expressed His desire for us to have a helpmate in the process.

My prayers go out to the family and hopefully the same pit of faulty logic will be closed to others in a non-abusive way to the individuals and society at large.

May heaven help us all.

Peace!

Even As An Obama Supporter, I Find This Funny:)

Only in America is it possible to find the following video funny!

But the difference is that many lives have been enlightened and destiny and purpose has been discovered through this election season.

We can join the naysayers in laughing now, but let's fire up our own engines to fully transform America and the rest of the world!


Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters To Realize How Empty Their Lives Are

Interesting Day from Girl Scouts to Democratic Political Rally!

Today has been a stunningly, great day and here are a few thoughts in a QuickTime movie video that came to me as a result.

Peace!

So Many Gadgets, So Little Time!

Too many electronics have made me drool lately and everyday I receive an announcement to let me know that another one is now available for me to purchase at a discounted price.

In some cases, I know that the holiday season may make some increase in price normally but we are not at that point nationwide.

So fortunately unless there is a strong business need, I am going to rest on the sidelines for now:)

Peace!

New Music: Make A Change!

Today I am finally making public a song entitled "Make A Change" that I produced earlier this year!

"Make A Change" is an instrumental track inspired by US Senator Barack Obama as he has inspired many worldwide in his quest to become President of the United States.

For one reason or another, the timing to release the song never felt quite right with my own schedule. With the Democratic nomination essentially clinched today and the need to unify the Democratic party present, there is no better time to make this song public.

I would deeply honored to see personally or hear that the song was played as Senator Obama takes the stage somewhere or even as song replaces "Hail to the Chief":)

You can hear song on either Last.fm and/or iLike and if you wish to make a purchase, just visit Electric Slide.com for a purchase and an instant download.

I hope to place the song on iTunes soon as well with other music created. You can also sign up to resell the song yourself and make a commission.

We are looking to use part of the proceeds to purchase two life saving products (malaria nets via Nothing But Nets and a dynamic, personal, water filtration system called Life Straws) as a part of my worldwide ministry.

Whether you purchase the song or not, please consider helping people worldwide with these products.

Also, feel free to share any thoughts, comments, and other forms of feedback:)

Peace and Enjoy!

New Lighting for Creating Videos at Home

Here are a few of my thoughts on Super Tuesday 2008 and it is mostly non-political.

New energy for this blog!

I recently discovered some information that I clearly did not know attesting to the popularity and inherent profitability of this blog.

I was rather shocked since I thought that the information (and resulting royalties) would be sent to me automatically.

With the new information, I hope to create more blog entries on a regular basis as well as add video content as well.

I also found out that I was included within a prominent list of Black tech bloggers, so I must clearly blog more to uphold the recognition:)

This year is a breakout and breakthrough year, so everything included needs to reflect the new level of achievement and opportunities.

Peace!

Audio from Bible Study Series "Christ Jesus and His Anointing" Available Online

Recently I had the pleasure of teaching a Bible study series within our church Bethesda Baptist Church in Austell, GA under the leadership of Senior Pastor Charles B. Goodman that blessed everyone including myself greatly.

The series "Christ Jesus and His Anointing" answers many questions that new Christian converts and even those raised and functioning as members of congregations for decades have wondered about in terms of properly identifying and understanding the ministry, life, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The content is not always taught within traditional Protestant churches.

Feel free to listen at your pleasure and ask any questions at anytime. If you wish to obtain a CD or DVD of the audio, just let me know.

The weekly Bible studies at Bethesda usually include songs, prayer, and testimonies before the lessons are taught, so all is included for you to have the full experience as if you were there.

The three parts are uploaded as wave files and they vary in length and part 1 is approximately 1:19 in length. I do plan on uploading the files as MP3s soon also.

Listen and enjoy!

My daughter Rachel's Song "Trick or Treat"

Today my 7 year old daughter Rachel and I recorded her song entitled "Trick or Treat". I thought that it was her first song, but it is actually her second after we composed an avant garde tune entitled "Spaceship".

It is the scariest seasonal song since "Thriller".

Check it out on MySpace at:

We took the photo above after we finished the song which is represented by Seed Of Life Music via BMI. The track should appear available for purchase below within 24 hours.

Michael Jackson to Tay Zonday: Tay, I Am Your Father

I admit that I am an early adopter when it comes to technology and most pop culture. I had heard of Tay Zonday and his song "Chocolate Rain", but I never actually heard the song or watched the video until a few minutes ago.

The dude is no joke and has a voice and momentum that it took over 20 years to catch up within American society.

His voice is extremely deep and I actually thought that he was a 15 year old until I saw the video in motion.

The song "Chocolate Rain" was made for the 80s and the early days of MTV without a doubt.

He is actually better than some or many artists that have previously made videos.

In this era of online communications and pop culture, Tay could outsell many artists that major labels have lost money behind.

The funniest thing that I picked up on after seeing his full blown YouTube page is that he looks like Michael Jackson to some degree.

I have heard that Michael's real voice is rather deep and hearing Tay sing made me think of Darth Vader telling Luke Skywalker, "Luke, I am your father".

This would be a hoot and then some!

Regardless, I admired his singing, songwriting, and courage than many studio-only and manufactured plus well-financed celebrities thrown on the public like toxic waste!

Go ahead Tay and do your thing!

Peace!

Kirk Franklin on Oprah

Check out our new music and creative concept on Electric Slide.com that you
have been instinctively looking for!

I watched Oprah today with Kirk Franklin talking about recovery from a pornography addiction and became more confused than anything else.

 

His addiction began at the young age of 8 and he has been recovering for the past 8 or 9 years.  I do not immediately know his age, but he has been addicted over half his life, so I thank God for his continued recovery and ongoing, conscious struggle.

 

The ironic part to me is that he stated that his porn addiction was more of a hardcopy addiction without any use of the internet.  His addiction mostly consisted of magazines and adult movies versus websites, webcams, erotic e-mails, and other audio, visual, and textual porn.

 

Why this fact confuses me I do not quite know, but given the age and year that he was first introduced to pornography, it makes sense.

 

The world wide web is a little over 10 years old and VCRs gained popularity in the late 80s while magazines have been around forever it seems.  So how he avoided being addicted to anything online is more amazing than anything else (if he was addicted 10 years ago).

 

But Kirk's frankness, unbridled honesty, and love and appreciation for his wife Tammy did not tarnish his star in my eyes.

 

My main concern before the show was that it would be a case of "there is no such thing as bad or negative publicity" and his integrity kept the show from appearing this way altogether.

 

I do remember seeing his wife in the audience several weeks ago and today Oprah played a brief segment where Kirk was in the audience and I do not know or remember if it was the same episode.  I never saw him in the audience.  But I believe that the episode where his wife was in the audience was about either Tyler Perry's movie "Diary of a Mad Black Woman" or men being on the down low.

 

What this has to do with anything would be more confusing but it is only what I think that I saw.

 

At times, I am very skeptical of Oprah's audience of mostly women than anything else.  I do not believe that Oprah plays towards her audience and that they simply follow who and what they think she is.

 

But today I knew that while the audience readily clapped for the strength of Tammy (Kirk's wife), there was another segment of women there that would quickly swim around their boat like hungry sharks and tell Kirk "come on over to Big Mama and let me help you off that wagon" and drown Kirk within their cleavage;)

 

Still I expect a boost to Kirk's CD sales and concert attendance as a result of today's episode.

 

I believe that there will be many who will flock to see him fall or try to tempt him now that his public confession has been made.

 

Kirk, do not let them kick you while they believe you are down!!!  Just know that just by being on O versus anything other statements, confessions, and/or admittance on the subject, a bigger bulls eye has been drawn on you.

 

As a result, you are now in the league of athletes of the various professional leagues and entertainers if you were not already before.  Increase the size of your entourage and bodyguards because there is somebody who will want to use today's episode as a "you heard it first on Oprah", so this new news is not that difficult to believe.

 

I will personally pray for Kirk and any other man or woman who is or has been entrapped by pornography. 

 

Clearly, the mental and spiritual residue of porn is like the smoke within one's clothes and body from a nightclub or smoke-filled room and I hope to write a new song about the topic after seeing today's episode.

 

Peace!
