<p>BY THE WAY THIS IS NOT SPAM NOR A CHAIN LETTER SO PLEASE, DO NOT FLAG OR DELETE</p>
<p>Screened in order;<br />
Wall Street Journal, Network, iLife, Better, Restarting, Viruses, Work, Touché, Out of the Box, Trust Mac, Angel/Devil, Accident, Self Pity, Better Results, Counsellor.</p>
<p>April 25, 1945. (4/25/ 4+2+5=11) Delegates from 50 nations met in San Francisco on April 25, 1945, for what was officially known as the United Nations Conference on International Organization. During a two-month period, they completed a charter consisting of 111 articles, based on the draft developed at Dumbarton Oaks. The charter was approved on June 25 (6/25=6+2+5=13)and signed the next day; it became effective on October 24, 1945, after ratification by a majority of the signatories. The bonds of the wartime alliance undoubtedly hastened agreement on establishing the new organization. In December 1945 the Congress of the United States invited the UN to establish its headquarters in the United States. The organization accepted and in August 1946 moved to a temporary location in Lake Success, New York. (New York was the 11th state to endorse the Constitution.) Later that year a site was purchased bordering the East River in New York City, (New York City is exactly 11 letters.) and plans for a permanent headquarters were drawn up.(97 Microsoft Encarta United Nations Origin)<br />
Favorite Illuminati Symbol: The All-Seeing Eye. New World Order Currency: The all-seeing-eye on the dollar bill. Below the illuminati pyramid/eye symbol are the words: &#8220;Novus Ordo Seclorum,&#8221; which can be translated as: &#8220;A new order of the ages.&#8221;<br />
The Serpent promised Adam and Eve that their eyes would &#8220;be opened&#8221; if they ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. The key word in this passage is eyes, which in Hebrew can be translated &#8220;knowledge.&#8221; Opened can be translated &#8220;broadened.&#8221; What the Serpent promised Adam and Eve was that knowledge would be broadened if they ate of the forbidden fruit.<br />
But the most foreboding aspect of this scripture emerges from the fact that the Hebrew word for &#8220;eyes&#8221; is not plural, but singular. What the Serpent actually told Adam and Eve was that their &#8220;eye&#8221; would be broadened by knowledge.<br />
The &#8220;eye&#8221; that Scripture wants us to consider is not the physical organ of sight, but the eye of the mind or the soul. This singular &#8220;eye&#8221; is called the &#8220;third eye&#8221; of clairvoyance in the Hindu religion, the eye of Osiris in Egypt, and the All-Seeing Eye in Freemasonry. (John Daniel, Scarlet and the Beast , Vol. III, pp. 6-7)<br />
The all-seeing eye is the elite&#8217;s favorite symbol. It represents the eye of Lucifer seeing all and is usually atop a pyramid, the symbol for a top-down command and control system of compartmentalization.<br />
Many companies use the pyramid within their logos. James Walker, a 32º Mason, shares some facts with us about the above symbols:<br />
13 leaves in the olive branch<br />
13 bars and stripes in the shield<br />
13 arrows in the right claw<br />
13 letters in the &#8220;E Pluribus Unum&#8221; on the ribbon<br />
13 stars in the green crest above<br />
32 long feathers on its right wing representing the 32º in Freemasonry<br />
13 granite stones in the Pyramid. (The 13 layers represent the 13 Illuminati bloodlines)<br />
13 letters in Annuit Coeptis<br />
It should also be noted that the Eagle has 32 feathers right wing, but 33 in its left wing. The 32 feathers representing the number of ordinary degrees of the Scottish Rite, and the 33 feathers representing the 33º of Freemasonry. The tail feathers number 9, the number of degrees in the York Rite. The eagle itself is a prominent icon of Masonry, being used extensively in the Scottish Rite.<br />
Looking just above the eagles head you will see 13 pentagrams within a cloud. The pentagrams are arranged in the shape of a hexagram &#8211; or greater Seal of Solomon. The hexagram is a powerful tool used by pagans to invoke Satan. It is also the sign of Anti Christ with 6 points, 6 angles and 6 planes (666).<br />
To the sorcerer, the hexagram is a powerful tool to invoke Satan, and is a sign of Antichrist. (6 points, 6 angles, 6 planes &#8211; 666) The 5 pointed pentagrams multiplied by the 13 stars equals 65, the same cabalistic number as mentioned above. This makes one wonder with whom or what, we are to dwell in unity!<br />
The eagle replaced the Phoenix in 1841 as the national bird. The Phoenix has been a Brotherhood symbol since ancient Egypt. The Phoenix was adopted by the Founding Fathers (Freemasons) for use on the reverse of the first official seal of the United States after a design proposed by Charles Thompson, Secretary of the Continental Congress.<br />
666</p>
<p>W = 6 So We will start there.</p>
<p>www on the internet, it could of been just w. or ww. but someone chose www. = 666 [ASCI ]</p>
<p>The Washington Monument is 555 feet high. In inches that = 6660 inches.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/KZLxXUPR_OA/2.jpg" align="left">Bungee Surfing  is a new extreme sport where you ride a small surfboard/skimboard on a river going upstream at speeds of up to 30mph. Riverboards are propelled upstream by a bungee system. The bungee system is a 20 foot section of rubber tubing that is stretched out and then propels the rider upstream. One end of the bungee system is anchored to any stationary, solid object along the side of the river &#8212; Rocks, trees, bushes make good anchors. How does the bungee get stretched out? The rider kneels on the board forcing it under water. Once the board is submerged, the rider then holds the nose of the board up and forces the tail of the board down in the water by standing on the tail. At this point the board is under water and at almost a 90 degree angle to the river surface. The board is now acting like the sail of a boat, but rather than catching air, the board is catching the river current and causing the board and rider to be pushed down stream. Once the bungee system is fully stretched the rider shifts his weight from the tail of the board to the front of the board. When the rider shifts his weight to the front of the board this causes the board to rise to the surface of the water and level out. At this point the bungee starts pulling the rider upstream. Once the bungee is done pulling the board upstream, the board releases from the bungee system. Once you are riding upstream you can carve turns and do all kinds of board tricks, big spins, ollies, shuv-it&#8217;s, kick flips, etc. (more)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8fdhBKQ4aJU/2.jpg" align="left">The Mississippi River is the second longest river in the United States,  with a length of 2,320 miles (3,730 km) from the source of its upper portion at Lake Itasca in Minnesota to its mouth in the Gulf of Mexico.</p>
<p>The Mississippi River is part of the Missouri-Mississippi river system, which is the largest river system in North America and among the largest in the world: By length—3,900 miles (6,300 km)—it is the fourth longest, and by its average discharge of 572,000 cu ft/s (16,200 m³/s), it is the tenth largest.</p>
<p>The name Mississippi is derived from the Ojibwe word misi-ziibi (&#8221;Great River&#8221;) or gichi-ziibi (&#8221;Big River&#8221;).<br />
From its origin at Lake Itasca to St. Louis, Missouri, the flow of the Mississippi River is moderated by 43 dams.<br />
The Mississippi River runs through 10 states and was used to define portions of these states&#8217; borders. The middle of the riverbed at the time the borders were established was the line to define the borders between states.  The river has since shifted, but the state borders of Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Mississippi have not changed; they still follow the former bed of the Mississippi River as of their establishment.<br />
The area of the Mississippi valley was first settled by Native American tribes, such as the Cheyenne, Sioux, Ojibwe, Potawatomi, Ho-Chunk, Fox, Kickapoo, Tamaroa, Moingwena, Quapaw and Chickasaw.</p>
<p>The Cheyenne, one of the earliest inhabitants of the upper Mississippi River, called it the Máˀxe-éˀometaaˀe (Big Greasy River) in the Cheyenne language. However, the word Mississippi comes from Messipi, the French rendering of the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe or Algonquin) name for the river, Misi-ziibi (Great River).<br />
On May 8, 1541, Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto became the first recorded European to reach the Mississippi River, which he called Río del Espíritu Santo (&#8221;River of the Holy Spirit&#8221;), in the area of what is now Mississippi. In Spanish, the river is called Río Mississippi.<br />
The Ohio River is the largest tributary, by volume, of the Mississippi River. It is approximately 981 miles (1,579 km) long and is located in the eastern United States.Pearls have a particularly long history in the Midwest. Excavations in the Ohio River Valley revealed fabulous quantities of pearls belonging to the people of the ancient Hopewell culture (200 B.C.-A.D. 500).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/YdFHumMcm_Y/2.jpg" align="left">The seasonal swelling and shrinking of the Tonle Sap Great Lake in the central floodplains of Cambodia has been likened to a beating heart &#8211; the heart of the Mekong River system, where vast numbers of fish act out their perpetual cycles of migrations. The film tells the story of the great fisheries that have evolved here over the centuries. Fish with rice was the basis on which in the past the Angkorian empire flourished. Today, the food security of Cambodia&#8217;s population of 12 million still rests on fish and rice. The film stresses the importance of regional cooperation to protect these inland fisheries that are among the richest and the most biologically diverse in the world.<br />
&#8220;Where there is water, there is fish&#8221; is part of the Mekong River Commission&#8217;s ongoing campaign to increase awareness of Mekong issues and the need for regional cooperation in the management of natural resources for the benefit of the 55 million people living in the Lower Mekong Basin.</p>
