Obama Space Age Pimpin – On The Phone With The I.S.S. (International Space Station)

211 days ago - By Rylan Branch

President Obama & Ludacris - SPACE AGE PIMPIN!

Faith

In June of 2006, then-Senator Obama delivered what was called the most important speech on religion and politics in 40 years. Speaking before an evangelical audience, then-Senator Obama candidly discussed his own religious conversion and doubts, and the need for a deeper, more substantive discussion about the role of faith in American life. He has continued to foster open dialogues on faith across the political spectrum throughout his career.

The President believes a healthy discussion of faith in a pluralistic society includes the need for religious people to translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific, values during public debate, and sincere respect on all sides. President Obama has found common ground in the importance of faith in the global battle against AIDS in particular.

CloserToTruth.com – Website Review

211 days ago - By Rylan Branch

 

(Captains Log Stardate – 7/28/2011)
It is currently 6:45 am Pacific Time and this post is a continuation of last nights events.
While fixing some spaghetti after I returned home last night, the local PBS station that the television happened to be tuned into featured a show that is the name of the website for this subject review.

Keeping it brief, it actually confirms that I am not alone in my questioning of matters of such abstract quality, yet I am betting on the idea that there are actually many more individuals with the same sentiment who may very well have missed this and other similar shows due to the fact that some broadcasters and media outlets may believe that individuals who are viewing mainstream and ordinary news and entertainment content are simply not interested in such other worldly matters, and since it has already been proven otherwise by this online publication, I will simply do my part to add value to this type of subject matter by making it PIMPISH and KOOL so that a #truthtrend can harvest and at the same time use it as a focus point to begin my day.
Enjoy!

This is the teaser for a forthcoming documentary film featuring Robert Lawrence Kuhn, host of PBS’ Closer to Truth – http://closertotruth.com
Join Kuhn as he travels the globe, talking about God with over 50 scientists, philosophers, theologians – believers and non-believers, theists and atheists.

Closer to Truth and Into God are produced and directed by the Emmy Award-winning Peter Getzels at Getzels Gordon Productions, his Washington, DC-based production company.

Spiritual Bankruptcy – The Crisis Behind The Debt Crisis

213 days ago - By Rylan Branch

The term “spiritual bankruptcy” is a word used in the rooms of 12 step programs to characterize addicts who have lost their connection to “higher power.” One dictionary definition describes spiritual bankruptcy as “a state of complete lack of some abstract property.” As we begin the year, I’ve been pondering what I believe “spiritual bankruptcy” means and how it appears in the people I know personally and treat in my practice.

Greetings Earthlings, and welcome home to the final Tuesday Newsday installment for July 2011.
If we have made it this far, we can be thankful in my honest opinion and we can simply consider this as a continuation of the very last post in this section regarding the subject of debt crisis and likewise move forward to the most frequent outcome of debt, which is known as Bankruptcy.

Today, I will be doing things a bit differently for some new and improved results by referring our viewers to a website that I frequent, known as GoodTherapy.org regarding the subject of
Spiritual Bankruptcy in hopes of doing my part to redistribute the wealth, which according to the wise, actually all begins and ends with the condition of ones mental, physical, and emotional health.

Enjoy and stay tuned.

A different perspective to consider.

More Friendships vs. Better Friendships – PH Social Media Solutions

214 days ago - By Rylan Branch

T.G.I.M. (Thank God It’s Monday)
Whats new and good in the hood? On this end, a long held position is showing itself to have been correct all along and simply required the application of a virtue known as patience.

We have noticed a pattern of behavior that was first spotted during the days of Myspace, in which individuals including ourselves at times began to load up on and hoard as many friends as was possibly allowed to by the social media website, to the extent that third party programs were actually developed to automatically add friends or send out requests to countless individuals simultaneously.

The same type of phenomenon than began to occur on Twitter in which followers were automatically added in bulk through the use of these programs to give visitors and onlookers the impression of popularity and importance through the number of followers listed on ones Twitter profile.

On Facebook, and perhaps it is only what is visible on our social media outposts,
what started off as a wise attempt to keep friendship connections exclusive to individuals are already formerly acquainted with each other personally, outside of cyberspace, has now succumb to the allowance of bulk friend adding mania while still keeping the limit at or around 5000.

While I can see a value in the desire to become acquainted with new people or have new people become acquainted with you for example, the danger would show in the lessening of the quality of the friendship connections for the sake of the increasing of the quantity of friendship connections, and while technology insiders struggle with how to resolve the issue of groupings and circles within a social circle by using algorithms and other autobot methods, we can simply state from a PimpHop.com perspective that for the most part, there is still an actual soul behind every social media IP address.

Putting it in even more simplistic and somewhat ebonic terms, we would need to ask if ones game is not flourishing with the current amount of friends, will adding masses of friends actually

A. Help the situation to become better?
or
B. Help the situation to become worse?

To each his/her own as for some more of anything is better including chaos and confusion, yet for those who seek different results, we have developed and implemented a working system that equally distributes the communication and recognition of importance for all parties involved, as studies have shown that most will not be effectively listened to or heard in a conversation in which each solely desires to be listened to and heard by the other.

Blah blah blah, but if you have made it this far, we invite you to tune in and tell a friend about the PH Social Media Solution which demonstrates a law of physics by showing that there is an elimination of a need for any individual at one party, to attempt to get others to come to another party, if each are all at the same party simultaneously, or more simply put, a part of
