Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

..."mobile-first, cloud-first world."...

THAT is from the new CEO of Microsoft. He's the former head of Microsoft's cloud division.

The push to "the cloud" is continuing, and I suspect this shows that Microsoft is headed that way even more.

The average person just doesn't see this coming. They have no idea of the implications. Why anybody would want to store all their data, including software, on somebody elses "cloud" servers is beyond me. The pitch makes it seem so appealing that a person can access the "cloud" from their mobile device.

To me, that's like putting your vehicle's engine in your car mechanic's garage for them to manage for you, and that requires you to ask your mechanic if you can use your engine each time you want to drive somewhere.

I cannot stress enough that for the average consumer, they do not need to store their data anywhere but locally on their own devices. A larger USB drive would be plenty for the majority of people. Unless you collect videos, a person doesn't use anywhere near the storage capacity that is being offered on those "cloud services". I suspect many people don't even know how to check how much hard drive space they have available to use on their own computer, and they surely don't know how to equate that to real world volume. Microsoft and the rest know that. Buyer beware!

Microsoft CEO to focus on mobile, cloud technology

LOS ANGELES (AP) - As longtime Microsoft insider Satya Nadella takes the company's helm, he is declaring a new focus on a "mobile-first, cloud-first world." So far, he only has the latter half of the formula figured out.

Microsoft and its new CEO are trying to catch rivals such as Apple, Google and Amazon, which are each building their own thriving ecosystems for mobile devices. At the same time, the company wants to expand its burgeoning business as a provider of software and services over the Internet.

Nadella, head of Microsoft's cloud computing business, was named Tuesday to be Steve Ballmer's immediate replacement. He is only the third chief executive in Microsoft's 38-year history.

The 22-year Microsoft veteran has enlisted the help of company founder and first CEO Bill Gates, who is leaving his role as chairman to serve a more hands-on role as an adviser at Nadella's request. Gates will spend a third of his time working on products and technology.

Nadella, 46, led the company's small but growing cloud computing unit, in which customers pay Microsoft to house data and run applications on distant servers connected to the Internet. Those services are a departure from Microsoft's traditional business of making software for installation directly onto personal computers.

In addition to growing that business, one of Nadella's first tasks as CEO will be to complete Microsoft Inc.'s $7.3 billion purchase of Nokia's phone business and patent rights - part of a plan to boost Windows Phone software in a market dominated by iPhones and Android devices.

"Going forward, it's a mobile-first, cloud-first world," Nadella said Tuesday in a video accompanying the announcement.

He said he would capitalize on Microsoft's experience making the industry's leading productivity software package, Office...

Thank you for this - yeah, as we're approaching the end times, deceptions are not only increasing, but are very subtle to boot.
