     Within hours of this story hitting the wires, the Westboro Baptist “Church”  threatened to use the occasion to promote their hate filled brand of Christianity in front of a nation-wide audience. For those of you who are blessed to not have any idea who these people are, these are the genii who pop up at just about every memorial event for US soldiers they can find; holding signs that display wonderfully supportive and Christian messages such as: ”God hates Fags” ( the link provided by clicking on the name of the “church” leads you to a site http://www.godhatesfags.com/) “God hates Jews” (I am a tad bit confused about this statement…), “Thank God for Dead Soldiers” and many others that are equally offensive and hurtful; having been designed specifically to be as offensive as possible to the grieving family as well as the nation in order to further their cause of religious extremism. Again, for those of you who have not had your brain polluted with this garbage and who still may have faith in the general good nature of all mankind, let me fill you in on some background information on this group.  They are basically a cult who masquerade as a Baptist “church” .  They preach many of the same basic messages found in most Christian religions but they fill theirs with the same style of  extremism and hate that our young men and women are overseas fighting to eradicate. They openly boast their belief  that the attacks of September 11, 2001 were punishment from God  for a nation that permits homosexuality and other social “ills” to exist freely in our society without persecution or harassment. On Sept. 10 of this year, they plan to picket all of the 10th anniversary memorial events  honoring those who lost their lives in the most devastating act of terrorism our nation has ever seen. Their explanation? Read on if you have the stomach:  This quote was taken directly off of their picket schedule which can be found here (link removed) along side of many other examples of hate run amok. They also plan a protest at ground zero on the the anniversary date itself. Here is an excerpt of the information given about this particular protest: ”    As with every bit of ridiculous hate speech, I have let most of what this group says fly through my ears and re-direct it to my rectum where the other material of the same value ends up.  Unfortunately, it is not enough for them to simply believe what they do and keep it only on some obscure website in some dusty backwoods part of the Internet.  Their trademark ”evangelical” technique and the act that has earned them such notoriety, is to show up at the funeral services of fallen US soldiers, holding those inflammatory signs and accosting the families with their bile.     They have made themselves such a hated organization that a group of veterans formed a counter-protest / protection group called  the Patriot Guard Riders who use their bodies and Harleys to form a wall between the ahem…missionaries…ahem and the soldiers’ families so they do not have to see this hate and to minimize the access and contact the hate mongers have with the grieving families; thus stopping them from intimidating the bereaved.  They escort the motorcade and serve almost as body guards, protecting the families (as some of these protests have actually turned violent….either by church members themselves or angry mourners) and using  the sound of their Harley engines to drown out their ignorant chanting.  To most of us, the last thing we would like to hear at the funeral of a loved one taken in the prime of their life is the guttural roar of a line of Harley Davidsons; but to these families, I am sure it sounds like a choir of angels sent from heaven to protect them from the worst humanity has to offer.     As mentioned above, this group has declared it’s intention to come to Northern Nevada on Sunday (this is also the date of the services I believe) in order to exploit the death of our sons, our brothers, husbands, friends, fathers and neighbors in order to propagate their hate speech using the funeral services as their platform.  This was first reported as a possibility in my local newspaper here in Churchill County. (link removed.)  The more I researched this topic, the more I knew that I needed find out if they indeed planned to exploit the deaths of the guardsmen and civilians so that we might be able to get the word out about it.  
In my usual charming Tmaxx style, (hard-headed and stubborn) I just had to go and find out exactly what they have to say about this tragic incident.  It is not fair to assume what the WBC’s take on this tragic event might be (as these poor souls were not in combat etc) or to base all my writing off of third and fourth hand regurgitated information.  So late last night, I contacted them with some questions and they were “good” enough to respond. I really wanted to know if they were indeed planning on ruining the services of these local heroes and what their organization had to say about the fact that these were not men executing the will of the ”immoral” USA but a group of men eating pancakes.
   I was directed by who I assume is their PR guy to a  person named Margie Phelps, who was the one who provided me with the statements you are about to read below.  The PR person was very cordial and described the lady who was to answer my questions as being an “elder woman and a very kind and wise soul.” (Personal note: You can judge for yourself but I did not find the tone of response to my questions to be very “kind”  but that is neither here nor there.)  The PR representative was very proud to point out to me that Ms. Phelps is the very person who successfully argued their case in front of the US Supreme Court. I am not going to lie, I did not feel very good about myself for sending them such a professional inquiry and not lambasting them for their ignorance and total lack of basic human kindness but I felt it necessary.  After all, if our soldiers can come back from Iraq and Afghanistan and brush these folks off then certainly I could suck it up and do what needs to be done.

(disclaimer, her responses have NOT been edited.  I have indicated her errors where I have remembered to do so but ALL of her responses have been copied and pasted directly into the article. All the errors from this attorney with a victory in the US Supreme Court are entirely her own.)

 Margie Phelps: Yes, we are planning to picket these funerals and warn the living that God is not mocked, and if you live in proud sin, mock His messengers, and disobey His laws, He deals with you in His wrath.

 :
Phelps: We have said over and over, in many fora – and say here again — that God sent the shooter. See our sign that says “God Sent the Shooter” at& our Sign Movie, “God Sent the Shooter” at.  God holds the breath of life and the hearts of all mankind in His hands.   “Shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?” Am. 3:6.  That’s rhetorical; all evil in all cities is done by the LORD (when you see all caps on LORD, that’s God the Jehovah the Avenging Judging Warrior!)  You bow down to people in uniform; you are a violent rebellious people.  Violence is breaking out all over this land.  God did it.  Are duty – AND YOUR DUTY – is to warn the living.  When God brings the sword – affliction, violence, punishment, war, etc. – if you don’t lift up your voice and say “STOP SINNING” – when the rest of your fellow man still alive, die in their sins, their blood is on your hands.  Ezekiel 3 & 33.  The blood of this nation will not be on our hands.

]]>

Phelps:There aren’t many interpretations. 2 Peter 1:20  Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21  For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.  The Bible is clear, and requires no interpretation to rightly understand, on God’s commandments against homosexuality, same-sex marriage, fornication, adultery (including divorce/remarriage), idolatry, greed, sorceries (mind-altering drugs) and murder.  This nation is proudly awash in all those sins, and aggressively practicing those sins from early youth is the national policies of the doomed-america.  We don’t know or care what those particular soldiers were doing at the moment God struck them dead.  If you think they were greater sinners than you, you’re foolish; unless YOU repent, you will likewise perish.  God creates those national guardsmen, and He disposed with them according to His good will and pleasure.  For His glory, He struck them down at that hour.  He raised up the shooter, brought him to his adult years, formed the weapon, and sent him forth from eternity past, for this event to happen.  He did it to WARN YOU TO STOP SINNING.  He has given this nation so many fair warnings, it is utterly amazing.

Sc, scandium, can drop 3 electrons to have the same electron configuration as Argon (Ar). Sc within its normal state has 3 electrons contained by its 4th shell. By dropping those 3, it can be “happy” with a full valence electron shell. Therefore, it becomes Sc 3+….

Humans are “wired” for music.  Until recently, scientists did not know how music affected the brain.  The advancement in technology allows scientists to actually “see” brain activity via PET scans and MRI imaging scanning the blood flow in the brain.  Our brains are “wired” with neural pathways.  Most activities only cause a portion of the brain to “light up” with activity; thus, the saying, right brain/left brain, etc.  But there are actually four parts to the brain and music makes ALL of the areas “light up” and create new neural pathways as a person is learning and playing an instrument.  Those neural pathways remain in tact and can be used for other things besides music.  Norman Doidge, in his book, The Brain That Changes Itself, shares case after case of people forcing their brain to change and adapt either voluntarily with discipline, or involuntarily due to odd incidences.  Studies confirm that our brain has plasticity.  ”You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” is proven to be a case of “can’t want to,” rather than too old to change.

Daniel Levitin passionately explores the connection between  Music and the Brain in his book of the same name.  Google his name, watch video clips on YouTube, or go to his website.  It’s an exciting time of discovering how little we know and how much there is to learn.  There is definitely enough evidence to recognize it is not in a music teacher’s imagination.  Music has a huge impact on activity in the brain.  You can physically/visually see the growth and changes that happen inside the brain.  The possibilities are endless.  The implications for music therapy and music education are profound.  Just check out PBS video “The Music Instinct.” Neurologist and author, Oliver Sacks relays a true story from his book, Musicophilia, where a man was indirectly struck by lightning through a telephone and three weeks later composing and playing the piano for the first time.  Sacks believes the man was “re-wired” through that experience.  The list goes on and on.

But even if you are still skeptical about music making kids smarter, let’s look at the other benefits.  Socially, music is an ageless hobby creating interaction with great people.  Take a look at any school band or orchestra or top-ranking choir and you will find a huge percentage of the members are in the top 10% of their class and college bound.  Striving for excellence is a given in a musical group.  Everyone has to perfect their part for the group to perform at their best–NObody “sits on the bench.”  Everyone has to pull their weight or the whole group suffers.  Creativity, especially in jazz groups is developed, honed and embraced.  Who couldn’t use more creativity in their workforce? Creativity is what makes the difference and gives any company the cutting edge.

There are many benefits of being involved in making music, but the neural pathways drives home the point and gets our attention.  Scientists are reluctant to state that playing a musical instrument makes you smarter, but all the indicators are there, so let’s look at it from the opposite angle.  Instead of trying to prove that music makes you smarter or good for you and your child, try to prove that it is not. I can’t think of a single reason how learning a musical instrument is detrimental, can you?

Give your child every opportunity and advantage you can. Enroll them in music lessons and watch them grow and mentally develop as they play, create, express, and struggle through the rigors of the discipline mastering an instrument.  You will discover a more creative, brighter and mature person in the making.

Many people in the world today have the high pitched voice problem and most of them can sing super high. But if you take choir lessons, your voice can deepen a little especially if you sing the low notes. However, there are so many other things you can do to help you deepen your voice. Not everyone wants to join the choir.

]]>

There are so many special voice deepening exercises which have been popular on the net for a while. Trying some of them is always a good place to start in trying to get a deep strong and sexier voice tone.

You can stand in front of a mirror & read aloud to your reflection & lower your voice one octave. Keep doing it daily until you’ve reached that goal. Then, you can go for one more lower octave & keep on going till you feel comfortable with the tone of your voice.

However, if you want to really deepen your voice, this method may not help you so much as a professionally designed can. I had suffered form a high pitched squeaky voice for a long time and tried so many wired things but most did not really work for me. What finally worked was the secret deep voice training exercises I got from this online voice training course called The Deep Voice Mastery. You can tryout the course for your self and see how effective it is.

Do you want to finally get that deep strong and sexy voice you have always wanted to have?
