Persecuted in Smyrna: Faithful No Matter What
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 03:55:52 05/07/12
Pastor Mark preaches at the church in Smyrna on Jesus’ words—still applicable today—to the church in Smyrna from Revelation 2. Today, Turkey is the least churched nation; still, Jesus tells the church in Smyrna to be encouraged and to endure what he endured (tribulation, poverty, slander, suffering, even death), but not to fear. Pray for Christians and churches where persecution still continues.

Right-Wingers' Desperation to Disclaim J.T. Ready Hits New Depths After Massacre
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 15:00:05 05/06/12

Just wondering: Is there any blogger out there more brazenly dishonest than Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit?
I know we have plenty of Malkins and Instahacks and nutbar Pammies to go around on the wingnutosphere. But it's hard to think of any blogger who more openly and remorselessly attempts to tell his readers that up is down, black is white, and that no, he doesn't have his head up his ass while speaking through his belly button.
I know a lot of people had chalked all this up to stupidity on Hoft's part. I don't know if he's stupid. I do know he is just flatly dishonest, a purveyor of brazenly false information.
For instance, in response to neo-Nazi J.T. Ready's massacre of his family earlier this week, Hoft posted this: >
Horror!… Neo-Nazi #Occupy Phoenix Protester Goes On Shooting Rampage – 5 Dead"
Neo-Nazi Jason Todd (J.T.) Ready pictured on left patrolling the Occupy Phoenix protest and on right at Southern Poverty Law Center website.
Of course, since this was not a Tea Party rally the story was never picked up by the liberal media.
The problem with this? J.T. Ready was a regular fixture at Arizona Tea Party events. Indeed, as Matt Gertz at Media Matters reported back when Hoft first trotted out this nonsense, Ready not only regularly appeared at such events, he was regularly given a speaker's platform and even organized one such event featuring J.D. Hayworth.
That's in stark contrast to his single Occupy appearance, where he was confronted by other protesters and asked to leave, and he was not permitted to speak. He was there, as we explained, purely as an opportunist: >
Let's be clear: J.T. Ready is a neo-Nazi, a classic totalitarian/authoritarian, someone who despises and loathes and sneers at the kind of democracy-in-action that the Occupy movement represents. He likes chaos, though, and he sees the movement's unsettling effect as something he can use. And showing up at protests always is good for a little attention. That's why he did this.
At least Russell Pearce was more honest and forthcoming in discussing his past associations with Ready: >
After resisting for hours, Pearce relented late in the day and released a lengthy statement detailing how he came to know JT Ready and what eventually led to their falling out. Multiple media outlets in Arizona posted the statement in whole.
Pearce said he, like others in the Phoenix suburb of Mesa, got to know Ready for his interest in Republican politics.
“When we first met JT he was fresh out of the Marine Corp and seemed like a decent person,” Pearce wrote. “He worked as a telephone fundraiser for Christian and pro-life groups, he dated the daughter of one of our District 18 members, and his attitudes and spoken opinions were good and decent.”
According to the Phoenix New Times, Pearce became a mentor to Ready. The powerful lawmaker helped the young man convert to the Mormon religion and he was there for Ready’s first baptism.
But Pearce said Ready’s demeanor changed somewhere along the way. Pearce described it as a “darkness.” Ready began spending time with hate groups, including the National Socialist Movement, which is the largest neo Nazi organization in the U.S.. After pressure from fellow Republicans, Pearce eventually disavowed the friendship.
“He was angry with me and stayed angry with me, and it has been several years since I have had reason to speak with JT,” Pearce said in the statement.
Over at Phoenix's Fox 13, Pearce gave a relatively forthcoming interview:
Russell Pearce: Pioneer Against Illegal Immigration or Racist?: MyFoxPHOENIX.com
Hilariously, even after all this was pointed out by Charles Johnson of LGF, Hoft just doubled down: >
As Jim Treacher says, “The Occupy Camp is a great incubator for domestic terrorism.”
That’s an understatement!
More… It looks like poor unhinged Charles Johnson jumped the gun on this one. JT wasn’t a rightwinger after all, huh Chuck? Hopefully Mr. Johnson will be honest enough to post an update with corrections.
Yeah, because Jim Hoft knows all about honesty.
Pretty soon he'll start regurgitating the claim being spread by J.T. Ready's supporters that the massacre was actually carried out by Mexican drug cartels in order to frame Ready. (Kind of like Laine Lawless's defense of another Arizona child killer, Shawna Forde.) Go for it, dude.

Tavis Smiley and Cornel West challenge a 'bipartisan consensus' that 'the poor don't matter'
PBS and Public Radio International host Tavis Smiley and Princeton University professor Cornel West, co-authors of "The Rich and the Rest of Us: A Poverty Manifesto," explain their thesis to "The Young Turks" host Cenk Uygur. Smiley says that poverty is "the moral and the spiritual issue of our time." West argues that America's military spending is partly to blame.

The Food Challenge
[LESS INFO] 9 VIEWS | ADDED 07:00:00 04/14/11
(Earth Focus: Episode 29) With soaring food prices, a growing population and a changing climate, how will we feed the world? In this episode of Earth Focus, we look at both low and high tech solutions - from treadle pumps and urban farming, to genetically modified animals and mega farms. In the developing world, simple solutions help farmers grow and sell more food thereby helping reduce hunger and poverty. In the industrialized world, high tech solutions are often controversial and raise ethical concerns.
We're producing more food than ever, but one child still dies every six seconds from undernourishment. One in six people are hungry, mostly in the developing world. If we have so much food, why is there hunger?
There are many reasons. Poverty is a key factor. People need land to grow food, or income to purchase it, and many have neither. One and a half billion people in the world live on less than $1.25 a day and already spend up to 80% of their income on food. For them, a slight uptick in food prices can be a matter of life and death. And because food prices are linked to volatile fuel prices, the prospect of hunger for those living on the brink is greater than ever.
Population growth and climate change makes things worse. In 40 years, there will be three billion more mouths to feed on this planet, while climate change brings more droughts and floods affecting our ability to grow food. But things can change. Focusing on boosting the productivity of small farmers and in providing them better access to markets is an approach that builds food security while reducing poverty.

The Face Of Rural Poverty In Peru Rural Poverty Report 2011
[LESS INFO] 4 VIEWS | ADDED 10:46:19 11/22/10
The International Fund for Agricultural Development's Rural Poverty Report is a comprehensive review of rural poverty, which accounts for 70 percent of the world’s extreme poor – about a billion people. No matter what the numbers indicate, in an area with marked inequalities, many poor rural people in Latin America and the Caribbean still live on less than US$2 per day, and have poor access to financial services, markets, training and other opportunities. There is a strong concentration of extreme poverty among landless farmers, indigenous peoples, women and children. These 'In Their Words' testimonials from the Rural Poverty Report put a face on the numbers in Latin America. Music: 'August Moon' by Dylan In The Movies licensed through Animoto for a Cause.

MATTER - Edelman Sports & Entertainment Marketing joined forces with pro-bono client Camfed, an NGO dedicated to girls education and poverty eradication in Africa, to produce the award-winning documentary, Where the Water Meets the Sky. The film follows the emotional journey of 24 young Zambian women orphaned by AIDS who were given video cameras and taught film development and production as a means to tell their own stories. Serving as the executive producer, MATTER worked with Camfed to shape the story in post production, structure the partnership with Morgan Freeman and secure distribution of the film, which premiered December 1, 2009 on the Sundance Channel. David Freeman, General Manager, MATTER, discusses our work.

This six-minute video details how nurses, community members, and District Health Management Team (DHMT) staff received camera- and computer-training with the goal of introducing video as a tool for accountability and evaluative thinking within the Zambian Health System. For some, it was the first time they had ever used both a camera and a computer. The "Video Voice Zambia" project works in-step with the Equity Gauge Zambia. Led by CHESSORE (a Zambian NGO based in Lusaka and run by Dr. TJ Ngulube), this project has been supported since 2006 by Research Matters and IDRC's Evaluation Unit.

Warning: This Video contains images that are not suitable for Children.Viewing is recommended for ‘Mature Audiences’ only !I’ve titled this Video ‘Iraq - End of My World’ because with each passing day, I am becoming more and more ‘disgusted’ with what I see happening in our world… and am coming to the conclusion that when my time on this planet does come to an end… I’ll be left with very few regrets !What we, as an International Community, are allowing to continue to happen to the People of Iraq, is nothing short of ‘disgraceful’… and the fact that it is happening at a time when many people throughout the world are ‘starving to death’ makes it even more ‘shameful’ !!!Money that could be used to feed the poor, and end World Poverty… is instead being used to ‘kill’ our fellow human beings, and ‘destroy our planet’ in the process.I am often left wondering, what sort of world we are leaving for our children. What are we teaching them ???Are we telling them that it is OK to kill each other ?They’d probably get that assumption if they play many of the Computer Video Games that are on the market, or they are exposed to much of the Violence that appears on the Television Screen every day.Are we teaching them that it is OK to watch other people ‘suffering’… or to turn a blind eye, and pretend that because it is happening to people somewhere else, it doesn’t matter ?I don’t know what our children are going to think of us, in years to come.In a way, I’m hoping that they’ll be as ‘ashamed of us’ as what I am… and perhaps there just may be a chance for a brighter world in the future !!!Music in the Video is a remix of the Cilla Black song… You’re My World.Images are from the website ‘Faces of Grief’ http://facesofgrief.blogspot.com/My appreciation goes to dancewater… for the continued diligence in maintaining the site !
