(Matthew 7:1-5)
by John Doe in7 "stop judging that you may not be judged; 2 for with what judgment you are judging, you will be judged; and with the measure that you are measuring out, they will measure out to you.
3 why, then, do you look at the straw in your brothers eye, but do not consider the rafter in your own eye?
4 or how can you say to your brother, allow me to extract the straw from your eye; when, look!

San Antonio Makes History!
by yknot inplans unveiled to convert human waste to energytue sep 9, 6:26 pm etsan antonio (reuters) the u.s. city of san antonio unveiled a deal on tuesday that will make it the first u.s. city to harvest methane gas from human waste on a commercial scale and turn it into clean-burning fuel.. san antonio residents produce about 140,000 tons a year of a substance gently referred to as "biosolids," which can be reprocessed into natural gas, said steve clouse, chief operating officer of the city's water system.. "you may call it something else," clouse said, but for area utilities, the main byproduct of human waste - methane gas - will soon be converted into natural gas to burn in their power plants.. the city approved a deal where massachusetts-based ameresco inc will convert the city's biosolids into natural gas, which could generate about 1.5 million cubic feet per day, he said.. methane gas, which is a byproduct of human and organic waste, is a principal component of the natural gas used to fuel furnaces, power plants, and other combustion-based generators.. "the private vendor will come onto the facility, construct some gas cleaning systems, remove the moisture, remove the carbon dioxide content, and then sell that gas on the open market," clouse said.. the gas will be sold to power generators, he said.. some communities are using methane gas harvested from solid waste to power smaller facilities like sewage treatment plants, but san antonio is the first to see large-scale conversion of methane gas from sewage into fuel for power generation, he said.. following the agreement, more than 90 percent of materials flushed down the toilets and sinks of san antonio will be recycled, he said.
liquid is now used for irrigation, many of the solids are made into compost, and now the methane gas will be recycled for power generation.. (reporting by jim forsyth, editing by chris baltimore and lisa shumaker).

Perfect Love
by Aculama inlet me run this by you all and see what you think.
it seems to me that every individual has their own ideas about everything from religion to politics.
these ideas are formed and shaped by many things ( station in life, parents, social background, education, ect.).

Fairy tale characters / Bible characters
by LtCmd.Lore inthe day to day life of a bible character is pretty similar to that of a character right out of a grimms fairy tale.. witches are a real threat.
you can go down to the local spiritist and get really useful information.
you have your magic pots that constantly contain food, if that fails you can count on a bird to bring you food.
