Top Al Qaeda Leader Abu Ubaida al-Masri Confirmed Dead in Pakistan Wednesday, April 09, 2008 Abu Ubaida al-Masri, one of Al Qaeda's top operatives and the mastermind behind a plot to use liquid explosives to blow British passenger jets out of the sky, is dead, a U.S. official confirmed to FOX News Wednesday. The unidentified official said it is believed that al-Masri died of natural causes, possibly hepatitis, in Pakistan, and are staying away from a report that he was killed in a January CIA predator strike. At the time of his death, the Egyptian-born al-Masri was responsible for the terror organization’s external operations, focusing on plotting attacks outside the tribal areas of Pakistan. Al-Masri is tied to two major terrorist plots. The first being the July 7, 2005, London subway bombing, in which al-Masri recruited, trained and directed four homicide bombers in a coordinated attack on London's transportation system. In the attack, known as the 7/7 Bombings, three bombs exploded during morning rush-hour within 50 seconds of each other on three London Underground trains. A fourth bomb exploded on a bus nearly an hour later. The attack left 52 commuters dead, and more than 700 injured. It was the largest and deadliest terror attack on London in its history. The second plot, in August, 2006, involved the use of liquid explosives smuggled aboard several airliners traveling from London's Heathrow and Gatwick airports to major cities in the U.S. and Canada with the intention of detonating the bombs in midair, destroying at least 10 aircraft.

And God said today to Hollywood be ready for you are going to produce movies that will be so fantastic because they are going to be faith based about Christ.
Behind The Scenes of Prince Caspian Jeff Holder (May 5, 2008) Keeper of the Sacred Trust: An Interview with Douglas Gresham (Hollywood, CA)—When a cherished book becomes a movie, the book fans usually cringe. Yet, three years ago, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe burst onto the screen, satisfying even the most ardent fan of C.S. Lewis' literary classic. The man most responsible for keeping the integrity of the initial book was producer and stepson to Lewis, Douglas Gresham. Now the next book, Prince Caspian, comes to the screen this month. Thus, the question in the minds of Lewis fans is, "Can they give us a film that's faithful to the book again?" Assist News |

Would it be possible to summarize all the above in a somewhat less complex language?

And God said today Colorado you are going to be a state that is going to raise up a generation of youth for the kingdom of God.
20-year-old Homeschooled Girl Leads Colorado's Personhood Ballot Initiative to Protect Unborn By Electa Draper The Denver Post Article Last Updated: 05/04/2008 "She's an incredible leader for her young age. It took one person to get the campaign started in Colorado. I was surprised but gratified by her age." (Denver, Colorado)—One day when Kristi Burton was 13-years-old and nursing a cold at home, she read a book on community service while watching the 2000 elections on television. "It just came to me," said Burton, of the out-of-the-blue call to defend the unborn that day. "I prayed about it and knew God was calling me to do it." Now 20, Burton is the leader of a Colorado "personhood" ballot initiative to define a constitutionally protected person as "any human being from the moment of fertilization." According to a report in the Denver Post, Burton thinks the organization she started with her family, Colorado for Equal Rights, is close to having the 76,000 voter signatures needed by May 13 to trigger a statewide vote on a constitutional amendment. Keith Mason, a founder of Michigan Citizens for Life, said: "In Colorado, we're a small grassroots campaign started by a 19-year- old. I relish that. Kristi is exactly what we needed. She is a breath of fresh air. She has a pure heart. Her quiet demeanor wins people over." Burton acknowledges that her up-bringing (she was home-schooled) had a great deal to do with her passion for the unborn. "My mom had a broader, more compassionate perspective on how people make the decision to have an abortion," she said. "It's not just about the child, she'd say. It's about the mother, too." "She's an incredible leader for her young age," said Judie Brown of the Virginia-based American Life League. "It took one person to get the campaign started in Colorado. I was surprised but gratified by her age." Denver Post |

Considering the frequency of Earthquakes in China, and considering most of them don't make the big news sources, this could have been more of an "educated guess"

Perhaps it is a sign of the times.
More than 8,500 killed in one county alone after massive 7.8-magnitude quake. This wasn't the average earthquake. |

Or, maybe it's The way it goes when you have an overpopulated area, substandard construction, and an active fault. It's gonna happen again, and I bet it even happens again after that. It's always happened, and always will. |

Quit rolling your eyes so much, you are the one distorting the facts and words of others to make it "appear" that you are correct. It's not a "normal day" but as far as earthquakes go, it's probably a normal decade. This earthquake will possibly not even rank in the top 10 most destructive earthquakes in Chinese History. The death-toll alone is an amazingly small number compared to past quakes of even lower magnitude. Secrets, you are a fool and a fraud. |
