The production of RFID chips, an integral element of the new generation of German identity cards, has started after the government gave a 10-year contract to the chipmaker NXP in the Netherlands.

Citizens will receive the mandatory new ID cards starting from the first of November. The new card allows German authorities to identify people with speed and accuracy, the government said.

These authorities include the police, customs and tax authorities and of course the local registration and passport granting authorities. – Source

Folks, this is the ‘New World Order’ happening right in front of us. Have you seen any news of this on the major news sources, or do I have to even ask?
It’s just a matter of time before this happens in the U.S.

Christopher Kaiser spent early Friday morning on a railroad bridge in North Carolina’s Iredell County. He and a dozen others were hoping to catch a glimpse of a ghost train — the chilling apparition of a passenger train that came off the tracks there in 1891, killing 30 people.

Instead, these ghost hunters encountered something far scarier: a real locomotive train hurtling towards them on a track that was 150 feet from safety.

Kaiser and the others tried to get away with some falling as much as 40 feet to escape the locomotive. Most escaped. Kaiser was struck by the train and killed.

A motorist fired pepper spray Saturday at a group of demonstrators and counter-protesters outside a funeral for a U.S. Marine in Omaha, Nebraska, police said.

The incident occurred shortly before 10 a.m. (11 a.m. ET) as members of a small Kansas church that protests at military funerals and counter-protesters stood nearly a block away from First United Methodist Church during services for Staff Sgt. Michael Bock, 26, who died August 13 in Afghanistan’s Helmand province.

A man in a Ford-150 pickup truck drove by, extended his arm and sprayed with a large can, police said. His vehicle was stopped a few minutes later.

“Initial indications are he was probably targeting the Westboro Baptist Church” protesters, said officer Michael Pecha, a spokesman for Omaha police. – CNN

The Westboro Baptist Church does not represent all Christians any more than Al-Qaeda represents all Muslims.

At the beginning Glenn reminded us that at the cap of the Washington Monument is engraved “Laus Deo” – Praise be to God.  He referred to this rally as the day our nation turns back to God. The rally is also being used as a fundraiser for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation.

Glenn Beck said so much to us today and it looks that he has moved in the direction of being more spiritual, and more concerned with cultural issues and seeing that politics isn’t the answer.

In what resembled more a revival than a political rally, conservative talk show host Glenn Beck urged the large crowds at his “Restoring Honor” event Saturday to “turn back to God” and return America to the values on which it was founded.

“Something beyond imagination is happening,” he told participants who packed the National Mall in Washington. “America today begins to turn back to God. For too long, this country has wandered in darkness.”

He struck a spiritual tone throughout the day, saying his role was to wake America up to the backsliding of principles, values and most importantly, faith. Earlier, he said “God dropped a giant sandbag on his head” to push him to organize the event.

“Look forward. Look West. Look to the heavens. Look to God and make your choice,” he said. “Do we no longer believe in the power of the individual? Do we no longer believe in dreams?”

I have to say at this point, that today that their is more to what Glenn Beck has to say than most media won’t say. He made a strong impression on me as I watched it live on UStream.

Things that are made from organic material age and decay, especially when they stop being alive.

A piece of home-baked bread, say, left on your kitchen counter, will get moldy relatively fast. Lord knows what some ground beef would smell like after a week.

But the artist Sally Davies has been photographing one McDonald’s hamburger and fries every day for 137 days. They look basically exactly the same.

It is amazing how ‘processed food’ and the ‘rapid rise of obesity’ have increased together…could the two related?
