The Seven Deadly Sins
*Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.
*Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
*Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
*Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
*Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.
*Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.

Your Eyes...*
Dr. Atick, a pioneer in the field of biometrics, is now wary about potential for abuse. Envisioning a future where powerful companies and government agencies rob everyone of their anonymity.
To many in the biometrics industry, face recognition is no different from a neutral technology whose advantages far outweigh the risks.
They envision a world where, instead of having to rely on losable ID cards or on a jumble of easily forgettable, hack-able passwords, you could unlock your smartphone or gain entry to banks, apartment complexes, parking garages and health clubs just by showing your face.
Soon Motor Vehicle, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Passports, Military, Police Department, prison services and public events security will use one form or another. It is still far down the road, yet may be a very strange feeling. Just a thought
Espionage...?*
 |
| Anna Chapman |
Anna was often suspected at parties of being a prostitute. "She was very sexually aggressive and wore revealing clothing". Although her background remains a mystery, she was perfectly open about having had Russian connections. Anna got caught with others accused of spying for Russia.
The United States indicted five members of China's PLA accusing them of hacking into American companies and pilfering closely-guarded trade secrets. China has long been among the most aggressive collectors of economic secrets, both online and off. It is an important for China to limit its economic espionage.
US. asked China not to lower the value of their currency.
Earlier were the Japanese. US and Europe were concerned about japan economic espionage. Now Japan is in economical difficulties for 20 years.
Be careful what you spy for, you may get it. China may find a new way of life they can't afford it at this time. It may create China's social unrest. Just a thought.

I Want...?
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
With God as our Father
Brothers all are we.
Let me walk with my brother
In perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me
Let this be the moment now.
With every step I take
Let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment
And live each moment
In peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me...... Just a Peaceful thought.
