DISRAELI the DESTROYER (dates from 1920's or early 1930's) by Arnold S. LEESE (1878-1955) of UK Disraeli was commissioned to achieve the following principal Jewish objects:-- 1. To strengthen the British Nation to carry out Rothschildian policy. 2. To use Britain to oppose the might of the enemy of Judah, Russia, and to reduce the prestige of the Romanovs. 3. To introduce the poison of Liberalism into the Conservative machine, the results of which policy are now obvious in the attitude of Mr. Baldwin, the "Conservative" leader. 4. To push forward the ideas of democracy by Reform Acts so that Britain would later be an easy prey for Government by Jewish Finance. 5. To further the emancipation of the Jews in Britain. All these he did. THE CHARACTER OF DISRAELI. Disraeli had ... a love of display; shameless bare-faced effrontery of the type which puts white men who come into contact with it, entirely out of their calculations; a purely materialist outlook; and an intellect trained, as all slave-races are trained, by observation on the lower aspects of human nature in others. He had Semitic obstinacy, which assisted him in his ambition to shine by his intellect its spite of racial handicaps. Utterly insincere in action, because he had no motives beyond personal advancement and his duties as a destructive Rothschild agent, he turned upon his colleagues as it suited him. Disraeli was baptized as a Christian when a boy but he was not religious. He regarded Christianity as a continuation of Judaism, and lumped the two religions together under the obscure phrase, "Semitic principle." He was often heavily in debt and never seems to have stood on his own legs, financially. He married a widow 15 years older than himself, but possessed of a large fortune. He was nevertheless always in the hands of money lenders. Disraeli's father was a Jew of means and a student, indifferent to Judaism; his wealth gave his son an easy entry into a certain class of fast society in London, where Disraeli associated with many friends of revolutionaries on the Continent, and also with such characters as Count D'Orsay and Lady Blessington. Disraeli was intimate with Lionel Rothschild in his adolescence, and reveals, in letters to his sister, how Lionel gave him advice and financial assistance. To gain his ends, he wormed his way into the favor of Queen Victoria, but that Sovereign, although influenced by him, kept him at a distance. He was unable to control the great lady as Rasputin in our time controlled the Tsarina. A ROTHSCHILD AGENT During the life of Disraeli, the Rothschilds used England as their principal tool, knowing that her policy had been favourable to Jewish loans and encouraged more. The Jews' weapons were not turned against England during this period, or, rather, not for her immediate destruction. That is why the name of England stood high among the nations during Disraeli's political career. The poison instilled was a slow one. The might of Britain was brought into opposition to Russia over a miserable dispute on a matter of no concern to us as a nation, a squabble between the Greek Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholics in Palestine. As a Rothschild agent, Disraeli used his friendship with Napoleon III to bring France and Britain together against Russia, so that the two nations might do the Rothschilds' dirty work and help to separate the West from Russia. Thus, Britain was brought into the Crimean War. Even during this war, Disraeli did all he could to embarrass the Government until the Prince Consort had to appeal for goodwill in case Constitutional Government failed in the throes of the nation's crisis. In 1876, the Turks excited indignation in the Western Nations by atrocities against Bulgarian Christians; those atrocities may easily have been excited by the judicious payment of Rothschild money to the Turks; but a new war was due, to make profit for the Jews. Disraeli did all he could to "pooh pooh" these outrages so as to bring England into opposition with Russia and on the side of the Turk. Russia, the natural protector of the Balkan Christians, went to the relief of the Bulgarians and soon forced the Turks to accept surrender under the Treaty of San Stefano, which allowed for a Greater Bulgaria. Had Britain, under Disraeli, not backed the wrong horse, she would not only have gained Cyprus for the Empire, but Egypt and Crete as well. OCCUPIED BRITAIN BECOMES "PERFIDIOUS ALBION" Let Mr. T. P. O'Connor describe the triumphal return of Disraeli from this Jewish victory for which he received the Order of the Garter: "This picture is certainly one of the strangest, if not the saddest. Here were these multitudes of free English Christians cheering the man who had given back more than a million of Christians to the most degrading slavery, as if he had conferred an everlasting honour upon the name of England, and had most at heart the interests of Christendom. "To those benighted beings, the acquisition of Cyprus and the protectorate of Asia Minor were the great interests of the hour; but to the future historian a little episode, of which these cheering multitudes knew nothing, will probably appear the most interesting. "Sir Moses Montefiore, at the advanced age of 95, had come out to meet the Premier. Introduced by Lord Henry Lennox, the Prime Minister grasped him warmly by the hand, and seemed delighted with the kindly veteran's welcome. By that small scene the meaning of this apotheosis of Lord Beaconsfield by a Christian people is written to letters of light. That day represented the triumph, not of England, not of an English policy, not of an Englishman. It was the triumph of Judaea, a Jewish policy, a Jew. The Hebrew who drove those crowds to Downing Street was dragging the whole of Christendom behind the Juggernaut car over the rights of the Turkish Christians, of which he was the charioteer. 'I have brought you,' he said at Downing Street, 'peace with honour.' I think I am anticipating the verdict of a very near posterity when I say that what Lord Beaconsfield that day brought to England was war with shame." DISRAELI'S KNOWLEDGE OF THE JEWISH MONEY POWER. Disraeli from an early age had a complete knowledge of the Jew world power and could not help boasting about it. His novel "Coningsby" portrays Rothschild under the name of "Sidonia," as follows: "During the Peninsular War, a cadet of the younger Branch of this family made a large fortune by military contracts and supplying the commissariat of the DIFFERENT armies. He had established a brother or a near relative in most of the principal capitals. He was Lord and Master of the Money-Market of the world, and, of course, virtually Lord and Master of everything else. There was not an adventurer in Europe with whom he was not familiar. No Minister of State had such communication with secret agents and political spies as Sidonia. He held relations with all the clever outcasts of the world. The catalog of his acquaintances . . . would throw a curious light on those subterranean agencies of which the world in general knows so little . . . The secret history of the world was his pastime. His great pleasure was to contrast the hidden motive with the public pretext of transactions." After describing how Sidonia meets Jews in key positions in every foreign court he visits, Disraeli puts the following words into his mouth: "So you see, my dear Coningsby, that the world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes." Should any reader of this pamphlet make the objection that these extracts are not to be taken seriously as coming from a Novel, let us quote from one of Disraeli's works on history, "The Life of Lord George Bentinck" written in 1852; the quotation is as easily applicable in 1934. "The influence of the Jews," he writes, "may be traced in the last outbreak of the destructive principle in Europe. An insurrection takes place against tradition and aristocracy, against religion and property. Destruction of the Semitic principle, extirpation of the Jewish religion, whether in the Mosaic or the Christian form, the natural equality of men and the abrogation of property are proclaimed by the Secret Societies which form Provisional Governments and men of Jewish Race are found at the head of every one of them. The people of God co-operate with atheists; the most skilful accumulators of property ally themselves with Communists; the peculiar and chosen Race touch the hand of all the scum and low castes of Europe; and all this because they wish to destroy that ungrateful Christendom which owes to them even its name, and whose tyranny they can no longer endure." THE SUEZ CANAL SHARES. In 1875, the Khedive of Egypt, forced by financial stringency, was anxious to sell his interest in the Suez Canal. Disraeli must have known of this at once through his friend and master Rothschild. A Mr. F. Greenwood, Editor of the Pall Mall Gazette, received private advices that the shares might be acquired for England, and patriotically refusing to make a journalistic "scoop" of the information, hastened to Lord Derby with the news. Lord Derby consulted with his Hebrew Prime Minister, and the latter then bought the shares. Parliament was not sitting at the time, and Disraeli borrowed £4,000,000 from his colleagues the Rothschilds, who made a profit of about £500,000, which no doubt earned for Disraeli a considerable commission. It was, of course, to the Jewish interest that Britain should hold the Suez Canal (until the Jews got Palestine out of the Great War). Disraeli had written to the Queen saying, "We have scarcely time to breathe, we must carry the matter through." He was very, very anxious that Rothschilds should handle the loan! Now, read this extract from a letter from the Hon. G. M. Kinnaird to The Times dated 20th March, 1930. "When Disraeli announced to the House his purchase of Suez Canal Shares, my father, the Hon. Arthur Kinnaird, M.P. for Perth was seated next to the Governor of the Bank of England. On hearing Disraeli's statement that he had gone to the only people who could have advanced the money, the Governor of the Bank of England whispered to my father, 'What a lie! I could have given it to him in a minute.'" Thus, we now know that the money was available all the time at home, and the deal could have been put through without the help of Jewish money at all. CONCLUSION Lady Gwendolen Cecil in "The Life of Robert, Marquess of Salisbury" summarized Disraeli's character as follows: "In all that is disputable in Mr. Disraeli's character, his lack of scruple as to the methods he thought permissible is beyond question. He was always making use of convictions which he did not share, pursuing objects which he could not avow, maneuvering his Party into alliances which although unobjectionable from his own standpoint, were discreditable and indefensible from theirs. It was an atmosphere of pervading falseness which involved his Party as well as himself and which culminated in the cynical audacity of 1867." Similarly, T. P. O'Connor in "The Life of Lord Beaconsfield," writes: "That whole character is complete in its selfishness, the whole career is uniform in its dishonesty. Throughout his whole life, I do not find even on a single occasion, a generous emotion, one self-sacrificing act, a moment of sincere conviction except that of the almighty perfection of himself. I find him uniform in all his dealings with his fellow man, and behind every word he utters I can only seethe ever-vigilant custodian of his own interest. There is, throughout the same selfishness, calm, patient, unhasting, unresting. Such a man the myriads of this mighty Empire accept as chief ruler; for such a man, millions of pure hearts beat with genuine emotion; to such a man is given to sway, by his single will, your fortunes and mine, and even those of countless generations to come. Which shall a near posterity most wonder at, the audacity of the imposter, or the blindness of the dupe? The immensity of the worship or the pettiness of the idol?" -

..and that charmless town is Vardenis where tourists rarely go there because its nothing town.But a Canadian teacher has been living there for the past some year and half and this is what she has to say. The following are 10 Things I Love About Armenia: 1. There’s a small store across the street from my apartment that we call “Abacus Guy’s Store.” That’s because there’s an old man who’s usually behind the counter, and he adds up your goods using an abacus. (No new-fangled calculator for him!) He’s always so excited to see me come in, and greets me with a big hello and a hearty handshake that starts way out and comes swooping in to meet my hand. I like this place even more now, because he recognizes me and sometimes lets me cut in line. Can’t get enough of that VIP treatment! 2. For all the faults my apartment has, I love the view I get from my balcony. And now that spring has arrived, I can sit out there with my coffee and comfortably enjoy watching the Armenians come and go, which role reversal offers me a small amount of satisfaction. 3. I love that the question, “Duk Hay ek?” will get me a free place to stay and more food than I can eat, anywhere in the world there are Armenians. (And since Armenians are everywhere…) 4. My four counterparts at the college and I get along really well. We have coffee together almost every day after classes. We joke around. We know each other’s strengths and weaknesses. We teach each other. We get frustrated at each other and then we laugh about it. We had a May 1st party, just the 5 of us, and it was awesome. 5. I have a friend who owns a small street-side kiosk that sells cigarettes, candy, and cell phone minutes. I like to go sit in the kiosk with her, visit with her in her broken English, and watch people come and go. Compared to American standards, her customer service is awful, but no one seems to care. Sometimes she’ll leave people hanging while she finishes a conversation with me or talks on the phone. She usually doesn’t greet people that come to the window, and answers questions with a curt yes or no. But with me, she’s always very nice, and she loves the opportunity to practice her English. The more I get to know her, the more I learn about her life and the way things are in this small town, which I find both disturbing and fascinating. 6. I’ve gotten used to being “hyurasirel-ed,” and since I know to expect it, I kind of like it. Whenever I go to any Armenian’s house, I will be offered coffee. With the coffee will come a dish of candy, which will inevitably end up being unwrapped for me and placed on my saucer. There will also often be cake or some other bakery, and/or fruit and/or wine. And now that it’s warmer weather, ice cream also comes with coffee. When coffee is over, a meal will often be served, and then tea will be suggested. I can’t do this every day—I have to space out my visits—but when I’m in need of a little “guest love,” all I have to do is knock on any Armenian’s door. 7. The birds chirp non-stop. I went for a walk today, beyond the town limits, to the fields, and I really noticed it there. But even in town on my busy street, there are birds everywhere, making music. When I sit on my balcony, I can’t look anywhere without seeing birds. 8. Apricots here are delicious. I never really ate apricots back home—probably because they don’t grow in upper Michigan, and they don’t travel well. They get bruised easily, and don’t stay perfectly ripe for very long. Until I came to Armenia, all I really ate were dried apricots, and they’re just not the same. I didn’t realize exactly how flavorful and delicious Armenia’s apricots are until I went to Barcelona and ate apricots that were tasteless and not very juicy. Apricot season here starts in about a month. I can’t wait! 9. I still get a kick out of seeing herds of cows or sheep completely blocking the streets on their way to and from pasture. And I still think it’s amazing that when they’re going home in the evenings, they each know exactly which gate to turn in at, peeling off from the herd one by one as they reach their own barn. 10. The people in my town think I’m beautiful, and they tell me that to my face on a regular basis. http://travelingev.com/2013/05/10-things-i-love-about-armenia/

Those ancient gardens were very close to Armenia and most likely watered by Armenian waters: At Nineveh. At a time when those two nations, Armenia & Assyria, were at war. ------------- Hanging Gardens Of Babylon Discovered 300 Miles Away In Nineveh May 6, 2013 http://www.redorbit....babylon-050613/ Lawrence LeBlond for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online The Hanging Gardens of Babylon have long been regarded as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, although not without controversy. It seems that the Gardens have also been regarded as purely legendary, with no evidence that this ancient site ever existed in Babylon. For centuries, historians, archaeologists and others have imagined what the Hanging Gardens may have looked like and several artists, most notably Dutch artist Maarten van Heemskerck in the 16th century painted his concept of the Gardens, complete with the Tower of Babel in the background. Now, a historian with Oxford University may have cracked the case wide open, potentially solving centuries-old theories of the Hanging Gardens. Dr. Stephanie Dalley, of Oxford’s Oriental Institute, said the fabled Hanging Gardens of Babylon were not actually located in Hillah and were not built by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. In fact, she says the site was not even in Babylon at all, but rather 300 miles north in Nineveh, and built by the Assyrian ruler Sennacherib. According to The Independent, Dalley first proposed the idea in 1992 and has spent the better part of two decades piecing the mystery together. Now, after working diligently for so long on the project, she is set to reveal the findings in a book to be released later this month. Poring over historical documents and descriptions of the legendary Gardens, Dalley has discovered that a nineteenth century bas-relief from Sennacherib’s palace in Nineveh showed trees growing atop a colonnade exactly as described by earlier accounts. She also found evidence that the Assyrian capital became known as ‘New Babylon’ after Assyria conquered Babylon in 689 BC. Dalley also uncovered several places in the region that were known by the name Babylon. She also uncovered evidence that after the successful invasion of Babylon, the gates of Nineveh were renamed for those traditionally used for Babylon’s city gates. Furthermore, through geographical assessments of the flat land surrounding Babylon, it would have been impossible for a water delivery system to be implemented in that region. And Dalley found descriptions of the Gardens that were written by historians who actually had visited the Nineveh region, making it more likely that the Hanging Gardens actually existed in Nineveh. Dalley found historical documentation that tells of Alexander the Great, whose army camped near the city in 331 BC, close to one of the great aqueducts that Dalley believes had carried water to the real site of the legendary Gardens. Dalley told David Keys of The Independent that it has “taken many years to find the evidence to demonstrate that the gardens and associated system of aqueducts and canals were built by Sennacherib at Nineveh and not by Nebuchadnezzar in Babylon.” “For the first time it can be shown that the Hanging Garden really did exist,” she added. Dalley noted that a German team spent nearly 20 years last century looking for remnants of the Hanging Gardens, but never found a single clue confirming that Nebuchadnezzar built the site in Babylon. “To their dismay, they could not find any possible location with enough space in the vicinity of the palaces, nor did they dig out any written confirmation from the many texts they unearthed,” Dalley remarked in a statement to The Telegraph. In the end, Dalley concludes that the Hanging Gardens were built in a different century, in a different location, and by a different king leading a different civilization.

Hemp Could Free Us From Oil, Prevent Deforestation, Cure Cancer and It’s Environmentally Friendly – So Why Is It Illegal? May 14, 2013 | By Dylan Charles | 26 Replies Marco Torres, Prevent Disease Waking Times http://www.wakingtimes.com/2013/05/14/hemp-could-free-us-from-oil-prevent-deforestation-cure-cancer-and-its-environmentally-friendly-so-why-is-it-illegal/ Hemp is a tall, beautiful and gracious looking annual plant that can reach heights over twelve feet. Although hemp (cannabis sativa) and marijuana (cannabis sativa var. indica) come from a similar species of plant, they are very different and confusion has been caused by deliberate misinformation with far reaching effects on socioeconomics as well as on environmental matters. The reason hemp is illegal is not because of any negative impact to the environment or human health, but exactly the opposite. It is so environmentally friendly, nutritionally and medicinally beneficial, that it provides too many abundant resources which would make it impossible for powerful corporations to compete. Historical Use Hemp is the most universally useful plant we have at our disposal. The history of mankind’s use of hemp can be traced way back in time to between about 5000 – 7000 BC. Remains of seed husks have been found at Neolithic burial sites in central Europe, which indicate that they were used in funeral rites and shamanic ceremonies. It is probable that at that time the distinctions between various strains were not as pronounced as they are today. Up until and even during WWII, hemp was a widely grown crop, which provided the world with an excellent and most durable source of fibre. Since it is an annual with a growing cycle of only 120 days it can be harvested several times a year, depending on local weather conditions. Its biomass is considerable, which means that it absorbs large quantities of the greenhouse gas CO2. It is resistant to bugs and requires little agrochemical treatment. It is extremely undemanding and can be grown in very poor conditions and depleted soils and will actually improve the soil structure over a period of years. For many centuries hemp was one of the most important industrial crops which provided the fibres for rope and tough, durable canvass without which the age of exploration could never have set sail. In the US too, there have long been numerous rules and regulation in place regarding the cultivation of hemp. But unlike today’s regulations that strongly prohibit any cultivation of hemp, less than a century ago hemp cultivation was not just encouraged, but mandatory, with hefty fines being levied against farmers who refused. ‘Hemp for Victory’ was the government coined slogan that fuelled the last big bout of legal hemp cultivation during WWII, promoting hemp cultivation as a patriotic cause. Deliberate Misinformation About THC Hemp is a variety of cannabis sativa that has a long history of use in the United States. However, since the 1950s it has been lumped into the same category of marijuana, and thus the extremely versatile crop was doomed in the United States. Hemp is technically from the same species of plant that psychoactive marijuana comes from. However, it is from a different variety, or subspecies that contains many important differences. Industrial hemp has very low Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) levels, which is the principal psychoactive constituent. Compared to marijuana which is specifically cultivated for personal psychoactive use, it is nearly impossible to “get high” on hemp. Marijuana that can be smoked usually contains between 5-10%t THC, industrial hemp contains about one-tenth of that. In order to get a psychoactive effect, one would need to smoke more than a dozen hemp cigarettes over a very short period of time to achieve any kind of psychoactive effect. The reason for the low THC content in hemp is that most THC is formed in resin glands on the buds and flowers of the female cannabis plant. Industrial hemp is not cultivated to produce buds, and therefore lacks the primary component that forms the marijuana high. Furthermore, industrial hemp has higher concentrations of a chemical called Cannabidiol (CBD) that has a negative effect on THC and lessens its psychoactive effects when smoked in conjunction. Industrial hemp also grows differently than THC-containing cannabis. Hemp is typically grown up, not out, because the focus is not on producing buds but on producing length of stalk. In this way, hemp is a very similar crop to bamboo. The stalk contains the fiber and hard, woody core material that can be used for a variety of purposes, even carpentry. The two also differ in the areas that they can be effectively grown. THC-producing Marijuana must be grown in generally warm and humid environments in order to produce the desired quantity and quality of THC-containing buds. However, since industrial hemp does not contain these buds, and the hardy parts of the plant are the more desired, it can be grown in a wider range of areas. Generally, industrial hemp grows best on fields that provide high yields for corn crops, which includes most of the Southwest, Southeast, and Northeast United States. Furthermore, since industrial hemp can use male plants as well as female plants (since the object is not THC production), higher crop yields can result. While there is virtually no THC in the varieties grown for industrial uses such as oil and fibre, governments have cooperated with powerful corporate lobbyists the ensure that hemp is lumped into the same category as marijuana. The primary reason is that hemp has too many abundant resources for fuel, housing, food, medicine that corporations cannot exploit. Think about how many polluting conglomerates would go down if hemp was permitted as a resource. The oil, pharmaceutical, supplement and constructions industry would need to radically shift their business model to survive. Abundant Resources Hemp provides the fibre to make a durable paper – a far more sensible solution than the wasteful method of clear cutting old growth forests, or even the cultivation pine plantations that are ecologically speaking dead zones that take 20 years to mature before they can be harvested. Cannabis produces 4 times more fibre per acre and can be harvested several times per year. The first dollar bills were printed on hemp paper, your old family bible is probably printed on hemp paper and even the constitution itself was drafted on hemp paper. Hemp has the strongest natural fibres, which can be used not just to produce rough cloth, such as sails or canvass, but also durable work clothes, like the original jeans. When the plants are grown closer together the fibre becomes shorter and finer, which allows for finer textiles. Today, there are some fashion designers that are experimenting with a wide range of textiles made from hemp for their stylish, trendy hemp lines, shirts, suits, bags, jeans and more. And, no- you can’t smoke them to get high! Hemp fibres are also finding application as a modern building material, an application that has been spearheaded and exploited successfully in France. Hemp fibres can be blended with water and limestone to create an extremely tough, light-weight, natural cement that has not only excellent insulating properties, but also shows more flexibility than conventional concrete, which makes it particularly useful as a building material in earthquake prone areas. Back in 1941, Henry Ford built a car that was not only entirely built from ‘hemp plastic’, but also ran on hemp fuel. Hemp oil, pressed from the seeds is also extremely versatile. It can be polymerized to create a solid plastic-like material, which is extremely durable, yet nevertheless is completely natural and biodegradable, which could replace plastics in numerous industrial processes. Car manufacturers are again turning to hemp as a resource to provide light-weight, yet shock absorbent and environmentally friendly material for their cars. Due to the high biomass hemp would also make an ideal source of ethanol, the best bio-fuel alternative to gasoline, which is capable of fuelling engines without producing all those evil gases that are destroying our atmosphere and poisoning the air. At long last, some of the top car manufacturers are beginning to follow in Ford’s steps. Some Facts on Hemp Farming 6% of the continental U.S. acreage with biomass crops would provide all of America’s energy needs. Hemp is Earth’s number-one biomass resource; it is capable of producing 10 tons per acre in four months. Biomass can be converted to methane, methanol, or gasoline at a cost comparable to petroleum, and hemp is much better for the environment. Pyrolysis (charcoalizing), or biochemical composting are two methods of turning hemp into fuel. Hemp can produce 10 times more methanol than corn. Hemp fuel burns clean. Petroleum causes acid rain due to sulfur pollution. The use of hemp fuel does not contribute to global warming. Hemp oil is of a very high quality and industry is using it in paints, inks and varnishes. In recent years the food industry is also discovering its virtues. Hempseed oil is one of the richest sources of essential amino acids and essential fatty acids, providing an excellent balance between omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids. All of these substances are currently being discussed, not only in the alternative health scene, but also by the food industry, which is searching for suitable ingredients to create so called ‘functional foods’. Essential fatty acids are extremely important to the proper functioning of cells. They play a role in reducing bad cholesterol and plaque, which is responsible for arteriosclerosis. Healthfood companies are beginning to experiment with hemp as a basis for a large range of products- from hemp seed bars, to gummi bears, to beer, to hemp cheese and many more. Studies have been released that show people suffering from cancer have low levels of melatonin in their bodies. Also studies have shown that just smoking hemp can raise the melatonin levels in our bodies. So one can only imagine what hemp oil that is in a concentrated state can do to increase melatonin levels. Hemp oil promotes full body healing and raises melatonin levels thousands of times higher than normal. When the pineal gland produces vast amounts of melatonin, it causes no harm to the body but it is very hard on the condition you are suffering from and indeed can eliminate it. For almost a decade, Rick Simpson has been showing people how to cure cancer with hemp oil. Both the commercial legal type of hemp oil and the illegal THC laden hemp oil are one of the most power-packed protein sources available in the plant kingdom. Its oil can be used in many nutritional and transdermal applications. In other chapters in my Winning the War on Cancer book we will discuss in-depth about GLA and cancer and also the interesting work of Dr. Johanna Budwig. She uses flax seed oil instead of hemp oil to cure cancer — through effecting changes in cell walls — using these omega3 and omega6 laden medicinal oils. Hemp Oil Uses Every application that uses petroleum for it’s skin and hair products can use hemp oil as it is more beneficial and herbal. It can be used in many health issues as either a pain reducer or even as the cure for it. Since hemp oil is natural, it is used as a moisturizing oil which can be applied after a shower or a bath. When you massage your body with it, it nourishes the skin and increases the blood circulation. More on facial skin care. Hemp oil is used in cooking as well, though it is not suitable for high heat cooking. Along with giving a slightly nutty and crispy taste to food, it can be the perfect salad oil just in case you’re out of olive oil. Another application of hemp oil is it’s use as biodiesel in the same manner like other vegetable oils. It is a safe replacement for petroleum as it is non-toxic and doesn’t harm the environment. Almost all the forms of plastics can be made by using hemp oil instead of using petroleum as a base. As those made from petroleum, release harmful chemicals while decomposition, but those from hemp oil, don’t. Hemp oil can also be used in the production of paints as it doesn’t cause any armful releases when washed down from the drain and has very low emissions than the petroleum paints which are currently being used. Hemp oil prevents skin disorders like psoriasis, eczema, acne and dry skin. It is highly nutritious for the skin and makes a wonderful addition to homemade moisturizing blends and rejuvenating creams. (Read Andrew Weil’s article on hemp oil http://www.ratical.org/renewables/TherapHoil.html) The list of beneficial uses of hemp goes on and on. So why is non-psychoactive Hemp illegal? There is an old saying: if you want to get to the root of a problem, follow the money. This holds true for hemp. In this case we have to ask the question ‘who benefits from hemp being illegal?’ The logical answer is: the oil companies- and their share holders, of course. Hemp became illegalized at the time when oil was beginning to make an impact on the economy as a base material for many things that hemp could also be used for, including textiles and fibres (plastics), cosmetics and fuel. Obviously, a resource is more profitable if access to it is restricted and not every farmer can grow it himself. In an exceedingly clever PR move psychoactive marijuana and hemp have been ‘thrown in the same pot’ as it were, and a massive campaign has been launched to convince people of the dangers of marijuana alias hemp – a highly questionable assertion. Although technically hemp is not illegal to grow in some states, it requires obtaining a special permit from the drug enforcement agency (DEA) to restrict mass production. These permits are rarely given out and require that the crop be surrounded by security measures such as fences, razor wire, security guards, or dogs. For a crop that has little-to-no potential to get people high, the current attitude is both irresponsible and draconian. Hemp is the most useful plant ally we have – a sustainable resource par excellence, as some might like to call it. Instead of cursing it we should be grateful to its deva and use all its ample gifts to turn the ecological demise of our planet around. It is not hard to see how immensely valuable hemp is and how it has the potential of solving many of our environmental problems, not to mention our health problems. Yet, we are continuously deprived of its benefits because farmers are prohibited from cultivating this crop. Obviously importing it or products made from it is very expensive and the high expense is a prohibitive factor to choosing hemp as an environmentally friendly alternative even where it is available. It makes no sense to import a crop like hemp, when it can be, should be and used to be grown in all temperate and hot regions of the world. Industrial hemp could transform the economy of the world States in a positive and beneficial way, and therefore should be exploited to its full potential. bout the Author Marco Torres is a research specialist, writer and consumer advocate for healthy lifestyles.

There is a Hiking-Club in Yerevan that makes and organizes regular hiking group trips, I think weekly, you can join their hiking trips to places outside Yerevan, for a fee of course. Most places were destroyed during...but the ones you mention were kept because of their outstanding tourist attracts and veneration by Armenian citizens as they did not want to offend them too much. Then again you could forget places and focus on local Armenians and study them specially their hearts --for despite the appearances their hearts are really very good and worthy of knowing.

The mass exodus of Christians from the Muslim world By Raymond Ibrahim Published May 07, 2013 FoxNews.com A mass exodus of Christians is currently underway. Millions of Christians are being displaced from one end of the Islamic world to the other.We are reliving the true history of how the Islamic world, much of which prior to the Islamic conquests was almost entirely Christian, came into being.The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedomhttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png recently said: “The flight of Christians out of the region is unprecedented and it’s increasing year by year.” In our lifetime alone “Christians might disappear altogether from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt.”Ongoing reports from the Islamic world certainly support this conclusion: Iraq was the earliest indicator of the fate awaiting Christians once Islamic forces are liberated from the grip of dictators. In 2003, Iraq’s Christian population was at least one million. Today fewer than 400,000 remainhttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png—the result of an anti-Christian campaign that began with the U.S. occupation of Iraq, when countless Christian churches were bombedhttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png and countless Christians killed, including by crucifixion and beheading. The 2010 Baghdad church attack, which saw nearly 60 Christian worshippers slaughtered, is the tip of a decade-long iceberg. Now, as the U.S. supports the jihad on Syria’s secular president Assad, the same pattern has come to Syria: entire regions and towns where Christians lived for centuries before Islam came into being have now been emptied, as the opposition targets Christians for kidnapping, plundering, and beheadings, all in compliance with mosque calls telling the populace that it’s a “sacred dutyhttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png” to drive Christians away. In October 2012 the last Christian in the city of Homshttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png—which had a Christian population of some 80,000 before jihadishttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png came—was murdered. One teenage Syrian girl said: “We left because they were trying to kill us… because we were Christians…. Those who were our neighbors turned against us. At the end, when we ran away, we went through balconies. We did not even dare go out on the street in front of our house.” In Egypt, some 100,000 Christian Coptshttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png have fled their homeland soon after the “Arab Spring.” In September 2012, the Sinai’s small Christian community was attacked and evicted by Al Qaeda linked Muslims, Reuters reportedhttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png. But even before that, the Coptic Orthodox Church lamented the “repeated incidents of displacement of Copts from their homeshttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png, whether by force or threat. Displacements began in Ameriya [62 Christian families evicted], then they stretched to Dahshur [120 Christian families evicted], and today terror and threats have reached the hearts and souls of our Coptic children in Sinai.” Iraq, Syria, and Egypt are part of the Arab world. But even in “black” African and “white” European nations with Muslim majorities, Christians are fleeing. In Mali, after a 2012 Islamic coup, as many as 200,000 Christians fledhttp://global.fncstatic.com/static/v/all/img/external-link.png. According to reports, “the church in Mali faces being eradicatedhttp://global.fncsta...ink.png,” especially in the north “where rebels want to establish an independent Islamist state and drive Christians out… there have been house to house searches for Christians who might be in hiding, churches and other Christian property have been looted or destroyed, and people tortured into revealing any Christian relatives.” At least one pastor was beheaded. Even in European Bosnia, Christians are leaving en masshttp://global.fncsta...ternal-link.png “amid mounting discrimination and Islamization.” Only 440,000 Catholics remain in the Balkan nation, half the prewar figure. Problems cited are typical: “while dozens of mosques were built in the Bosnian capital Sarajevo, no building permissions [permits] were given for Christian churches.” “Time is running out as there is a worrisome rise in radicalism,” said one authority, who further added that the people of Bosnia-Herzegovina were “persecuted for centuries” after European powers “failed to support them in their struggle against the Ottoman Empire.” And so history repeats itself. One can go on and on:In Ethiopia, after a Christian was accused of desecrating a Koran, thousands of Christians were forced to flee their homes when “Muslim extremists set fire to roughly 50 churches and dozens of Christian homes.” In the Ivory Coast—where Christians have literally been crucified—Islamic rebels “massacred hundreds and displaced tens of thousands” of Christians. In Libya, Islamic rebels forced several Christian religious orders, serving the sick and needy in the country since 1921, to flee. To anyone following the plight of Christians under Islamic persecution, none of this is surprising. As I document in my new book, “Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christianshttp://global.fncsta...ink.png,” all around the Islamic world—in nations that do not share the same race, language, culture, or economics, in nations that share only Islam—Christians are being persecuted into extinction. Such is the true face of extremist Islamic resurgence. Raymond Ibrahimhttp://global.fncsta...ternal-link.png is author of the new book “Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christianshttp://global.fncsta...ternal-link.png” (Regnery Publishing 2013). A Middle East and Islam specialist, he is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center and an associate fellow at the Middle East Forum.

In the first one you can see the municipality building at the left side but its tower is missing and there are no such colorful bulidings near the municipality. Someone has a colorful imagination.

http://cdn1.spiegel.de/images/image-482828-galleryV9-lvnn.jpg I say Armenia can, if not already doing, because 90% of world's Saffron used to come from Iran. If it grows in Iran then most likely will do in Armenia. That two red strings are the saffron, they are known as delicate stigmas of the Saffron crocus, or crocus sativus: a crocus plant with bluish purple flowers in the iris family, they grow from bulbs, few bulbs can mutlipy into many in time. A kilo of those best Krokus saffrons from Greece sells for $2600 a kilo. To produce one kilogram of saffron, about 150,000 crocus flowers have to be picked by hand and the precious stigmas carefully plucked from the flowers. Here is an article that gives the reader an idea of what the beef is about: Red Gold: Saffron Cooperative Thrives amid Greek Crisis By Manfred Ertel As the economic crisis ravages their country, a community of Greek farmers is prospering. Their cooperative specializes in saffron, the world's most expensive spice, which is keeping the community afloat and attracting global attention. In these hard times, it's hard to find a place in Greece where people still look forward to the future, except perhaps in the country's far north, in Krokos on the Macedonian plain. Nikolaos Patsiouras is one of the satisfied residents in the town of about 5,000 people, which is surrounded by rocky fields. "We have no debt, our exports are doing well and we are healthy," he says proudly. "We are pioneers for Europe." They used to call him "little German boy" when he was a child, because of his blonde hair and blue eyes. His hair is now silver-gray, and the 57-year-old is the president of the local cooperative of about 1,000 saffron producers, the only one of its kind in the country. The area around Krokos is world-famous for its red saffron, known as "red gold," the rarest and most precious spice on earth. Krokos produces 1.5 to 2 tons of saffron a year, which sells for up to €2,000 ($2,600) a kilo. The farmers export the highly delicate stigmas of the saffron crocus to the United States, France, Germany, Canada and Australia. With world production at about 200 tons, Greece's share is relatively small. But about 90 percent of total production comes from Iran, which is having export difficulties because of its nuclear policy and Western sanctions. Besides, the red saffron from Krokos is prized among top chefs. "We are the best," says Patsiouras, a stout, amiable man with rimless glasses. Medals from international awards are stacked on the cabinet behind him, and certificates hang on the walls. "Why else does our saffron fetch up to €500 more per kilo than saffron from Iran?" he asks. Hard Work Patsiouras' job is an unpaid position. He has no privileges and plays no special role. The cooperative pays 90 percent of its proceeds directly to the farmers. This is rare in a country where nepotism and corruption plunged an entire nation into crisis. To become president of the cooperative, one must be a saffron producer. Patsiouras grows crocus sativus, a crocus plant with bluish purple flowers in the iris family, on about a hectare (2.47 acres) of land. He used to be one of 2,500 spice farmers in the region, but many young people moved to the city over the years. There was a huge exodus around the 2004 Summer Olympics, when the entire country was experiencing an economic boom. Three years ago, there were only 580 saffron producers left in Krokos. Part of the reason is that it's very hard work. To produce one kilogram of saffron, about 150,000 crocus flowers have to be picked by hand and the precious stigmas carefully plucked from the flowers. The harvest is concentrated in a two-week period in late October and early November. "Each time you ask yourself: Why am I doing this?" says the cooperative's president. But he also delights in the harvest every year. "There is something magical about saffron," he says. His family has been growing crocuses for at least four generations. The plant was considered extinct in Greece until a few bulbs were brought to the area from Vienna about 300 years ago. There has been documented cultivation on the Macedonian plain since then. Farmers Return to amid Crisis Why the precious flower with expensive stigmas does so well in the region is a mystery. Is it the climate, with the Vourinos Mountains providing protection from the wind, the persistent fog and the unique, sandy soil? "To this day, we still don't know what is so special about our location," says Patsiouras. Now that the debt crisis and austerity measures have forced the entire country to its knees, young people and former farmers are returning to Krokos. There are now as many saffron farmers as there were 10 years ago, when the Krokos region produced six tons a year, making it the world's second-largest producer. Thefarmers hope to regain that position in the next two years by doubling the amount of land devoted to the crocuses and tripling production. In Germany, red saffron from northern Greece sells for up to €13 per gram. Chefs are scrambling to get it, especially now that British food inspectors concluded that saffron from Spain was of lesser quality, in terms of color, aroma and taste. It was also the British media that exposed Spanish exporters who had been repackaging and relabeling cheaper Iranian saffron. Europe still works in Krokos, and Patsiouras believes in a common future. With bulbs from Austria, praise from London and the usual agricultural subsidies from Brussels, he says, "we are a European project; we are nothing without Europe."

I used an American-style oven glove yesterday for the first time since coming to Armenia. It didn’t come in a care package from America, and I didn’t have to go to Yerevan to get it, and best of all, it represented a project going incredibly well for a group of women in my town. Today, International Women’s Day, I wanted to take a moment to recognize a special group of hard-working Armenian wives and mothers for their amazing achievements in the past year. On January 25, 2013, Vardenis Sewing celebrated the one year anniversary of their first oven glove sold. “Vardenis Sewing” is a group of five Armenian women who all live in my town. They used to gather every day to laugh and talk over coffee, and occasionally work on a few sewing projects, but until just over a year ago, were not really employed or making money. My site mate Laura got them connected with Tim Straight, who I’ve mentioned before (the honorary consul of Norway and Finland in Armenia and product designer and founder of the organization Homeland Handicrafts), and who helped refine their designs and products for an American market. They started out with sewing American-style pot holders and oven gloves (and at that time I mentioned them in a different blog entry about helping out various Peace Corps Volunteer projects). Since then, these women have been branching out into additional sewn goods like aprons, place mats, and a two-fisted long oven glove that is becoming popular in Europe. They are also experimenting with designs for pillow cases, pencil cases, cosmetic cases, and iphone holders, and have sewn wool king-size and baby blankets as well. And they just released a collection of garden veggies. Now, a little over a year later, they have sold a total of over 1,000 sewn kitchen goods and other products. Originally designed and marketed for the Armenian diaspora and community, these products have been well received in more than 7 countries in the first year alone, including the United States, Korea, Australia, and Norway. Can you imagine the difference this project has made in their lives, when they live in a town with over 60% unemployment??? Because the project is going “sew” well, they decided it was time for a website, which I happily created for them. Their website is www.VardenisSewing.com. On it, you can see all of their products, the story of their beginnings, and short biographies of each of the women. I photographed their products, wrote about their project, and with the help of a diasporan woman in the US, published the site online for all of you to see. In return, as a thank you gift, they sewed me a beautifully matching kitchen set of an apron, oven glove, and pot holder, with a pink background and a cherry chocolate cake design. It looks good enough to eat! The Vardenis Sewing project has created a much-needed source of income for women with very little economic opportunity. It is a growing opportunity for them as well, as they use a Google spreadsheet to track orders, they now have strict work schedules and deadlines, and they are learning about quality control and attention to detail. We are proud of what they have done so far, and look forward to seeing them accomplish even more in the future! If you would like to order any products from Vardenis sewing, please email Tim at: timothy.straight@gmail.com. We are hoping to have online ordering available sometime in the future. http://travelingev.com/2013/03/vardenis-sewing-oven-glove/#comment-5289 http://www.vardenissewing.com/ http://www.vardenissewing.com/products.html Below there is a link to a page where there is a VIDEO about the works of PCV in Armenia: http://travelingev.com/2013/02/happy-peace-corps-week/

"I announce to you a great joy: Habemus Papam! (We have a Pope!) The most eminent and most reverend Lord, Lord [Bechara] Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church [Boutrus al-Rahi], Who takes for himself the name of [Peter II]" Patriarch Bechara Boutros al-Rahi was created a Cardinal by Pope Benedict XVI in a consistory on 24 November 2012.On Thursday, 31 January 2013, Cardinal Patriarch al-Rahi was appointed by Pope Benedict to serve as a Member of the Congregation for the the Oriental Churches and. 72 years old Cardinal was born in Lebanon, his name al-Rahi means pastor in Aramean/Arabic, pastor as in Jesus the Pastor. He took the additional name Boutros, which is Middle Eastern pronunciation of the name of Saint Peter, the Apostle who who briefly held the See of Antioch before moving to Rome to become Bishop there, or the first pope. Bechara was was consecrated as auxiliary bishop of Antioch on 12 July 1986. In April 2011, the acting Maronite Patriarch Rahi said that, for the sake of communion and love, he would work "to establish a sincere and complete dialogue" with Muslims "and build together a future in common life and cooperation." In 2007 he received the award of the National Order of the Cedar. In 2011 he was decorated with the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor by the President of France Nicholas Sarkozy. Since he is a Cardinal, he is eligible as a candidate for the papacy, a papabili from Levant in turmoil, the land where first Jesus and His followers preached. He is likely to get the 72 votes needed for becoming pope. A warrior for peace in the Middle East who speaks Arabic, French, Italian and Spanish. http://vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/typo3temp/pics/65f2019602.jpghttp://www.hexagone3.com/fr/assets/images/250-120820-Bechara.jpg

Yes --Habemus papam! on date of 3-13-13 by Sakomo Berlusci (translated from Italian) The title is taken from official announcement when a new pope has just been elected, the announement runs like this: "I announce to you a great joy: Habemus Papam! (We have a Pope!) The most eminent and most reverend Lord, Lord [Marc] Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church [Ouellet], Who takes for himself the name of [Pius 13]. " More than 850 years ago, St. Malachi predicted in code-manner all future popes with some formidable accuracy making only few mistakes. Now, after the resignation of Benedict16 there remains in his list one more future pope to be elected… That prophecy states: "During the last persecution of the Holy Roman Church, a pope will sit on the throne of Peter who shall feed the sheep amidst many great tribulations as a result of which the City of the Seven Hills [Jerusalem] shall be utterly destroyed, and the awful Judge [Jesus Christ] will judge her people [because of rejecting Him]." As you can see, in this so-called Malachi prophecy there is no "Petrus Romanus" given as a code name for the last pope coming after Benedict16 as written about in many books on that subject; there is no "Peter the Roman" in that prophesy, there is mentioned the "Roman Peter" but it is not given as a code, only as a substitute for the title "pope". So what that prophecy is saying is: a pope will sit on the throne of Peter who... Having made that clean (and by that made fools of those thousands who believed and still believe "Peter the Roman" to be a code name for the last pope) let us do some hunting for the identity of the next pope, who as a matter of fact would not be the last one. That prophecy say there is going to be tribulation, much destruction and a devastating storm; however after each storm the sun shines again. So a renewed papacy with a renewed pope will take the helm of the Catholic church. Cardinal Marc Ouellet is on focus, he is the Canadian-born former Archbishop of Quebec who now heads the powerful Congregation of Bishops that is a "great spot for making friends and influencing people," since it chooses the global leadership of the church. Ouellet, 68 years old, is a veteran in dealing with the secularized West, someone smart, intellectual and cosmopolitan. He is close to Benedict16 in theological thinking and someone who could bring a strong hand to the Vatican bureaucracy. His is both traditional and innovative at the same time, someone Vatican is looking to maintain the balance in the house between the traditionalists and reformists. And to navigate the church during the currant crisis that she is going through during which the Catholics are leaving their churches, so far 22 million Catholics left their churches in the U.S alone. Vatican would be needing a new pope with messages that will attract those abandoning it or preventing further bleeding. He must be able to speak to the hearts. The cardinals who elect the next pope will look for one who is: -a man of prayer and is deeply rooted in the apostolic faith of the Catholic Church and devotion to Mother Mary with a deep love for the rosary -Able to govern, especially during the current crisis; he has to be a crisis-solving leader -He has to be deeply concerned about the poor and about works of charity.

Number "23" appears to have been solved because on Saturday February 23 Pope Benedict will have a meeting with Italian President Giorgio Napolitano the subject of talk and discussion is anyone quess, but according to some Italian media sources the Pope will ask for protection and immunity from prosecution from the Italian government for any wrong he might have done, such as protecting child pedofiles among the Catholic clergy. Tradionally the popes are above the worldly laws but the pope might be asking for forgivness and pardon. It still remains the superball number "6" to be solved. On the same day, February 11, when the Pope announced his resingnation starting Feb. 28, at the evening a lighting strike near or at the Vatican due to a storm at evening time. The pagan god Zeus is known for throwing lighting bolts at people. http://cdn2.spiegel.de/images/image-459965-galleryV9-kjin.jpg

In this cartoon it shows pope Benedict holding a lotto ticket that he bought; en front of him is a TV screen showing the result of lotto, the Pope holds the winning ticket. The Pope is saying or thinking: Holy sack of straw, I'm quitting [my job] tomorrow (as translated from German). The astonishing thing in this cartoon that it was made a year and a half ago by Katharina Greve who originally drew the cartoon for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitun. It then appeared in the 2013 "Karicartoon" daily page-a-day calendar on Sunday, February 10, 2013 -- the day before Pope Benedict XVI announced he would step down from the papacy. Another astonishing thing are the numbers. "28" is the day that he actually will step down and the currant secretary of State for the Vatican Cardinal Tarcisio Pietro Bertone will be called upon as Camerlengo to serve as the head of the Roman Catholic Church in the period knowns as 'sede vacante' untill the election of a new pope . Note the number "13" which can be year 2013 specially if wethe "2" from 12 and the zero from the 10 and put them before "13" completing the date of year 2013. Then after there remain the two "1"s which indicates the day the Pope announced his resingnation --Monday 11. Also the first "13" indicates the last mass he held on Feb. 13 at Ash Wednesday. It remain the number "23" and "6" the meaning of which sjould be clarified in the coming days. http://cdn2.spiegel.de/images/image-459859-galleryV9-xtfw.jpg Also, On Holocaust Remembrance Day at the end of January, Pope Benedict released a white dove of peace -- which was then promptly attacked by a grey-wingedseagull. This means that War is coming and peace dying. In news most are speaking about the coming new pope to be an anti-christ during his papacy the Rome and the Vatican are going to burn because of warlike tribulations, they call the next pope Peter the Roman as called by a certain Mallacy seer who made predictions about 112 popes. http://cdn1.spiegel.de/images/image-460358-galleryV9-beqj.jpgquit

This story often happens with American males who, fed up with American bitchy females, start looking for a submisive Philipina female in websites where Philipine brides are offered. It is a scheme run by male Philipine males. After the American male get HOOKED in LOVE with a "bride" that he never met or seen (except beaitiful fake photos e-mailed to him), he star receiving e-mails that say she is in dificult situation and that she need money ugently for this and for that, even "she" may ask for money for airplane ticket to fly into the arms of her love but never does saying another situation came up at the last minute and I had to spent the ticket money for that, can he send money for another ticket; well, since he is by now blinded with love, he does; and then she says that she became suddently sick and had to go to hospital so that is why she did not take the airplane into the arms of her waiting love, would he send more money for another ticket and that she will fly as soon she is out of the hospital and the hospital got all the ticket money. But this time our American guy wanted to be present at the bed of his love to comfort her, and he flies to Philippine and ---he finds out there is no bride and the address he has is fake and is told by police that this is a well-known scheme run by Philipine males or gangs and they can do nothing about it as he donatated his money and was not robbed from him. NOW IT LOOKS THINGS THIS GOES ALSO IN ARMENIA BUT THE PLAY in Armenia IS UPON THE FEMALES BY ARMENIAN MALES. Here is a recent story reported in Hetq.am: Blind Love: Young Woman Hands Over 3 Million AMD to Man She Never Saw http://hetq.am/eng/news/22484/blind-love-young-woman-hands-over-3-million-amd-to-man-she-never-saw.html Here’s a story that could have been lifted from some cheap romance novel. Sadly, it’s real, and so are the victims . 29 year-old Kristineh Mikayelyan fell in love with a man she only knew over the telephone. Over the course of a year, the young woman handed over some 3 million AMD in cash and gold jewelry to a man she had never seen in person. That man is Edward Malintsyan, who is now on trial for fraud and detained at the Kosh correctional facility. In fact, the two first saw each other at the investigator’s office. Kristineh was taken aback when she saw the thin and small bodied Edward. It was nothing like the Rambo-esque photo he had sent her from jail. At that face to face meeting, Kristineh’s mother was able to whack Edward a few times with her umbrella. The angry mom shouted, “So you’re the guy who cheated my daughter. I’ll bury your head. Give the money back.” Yesterday’s trial was supposed to have started with the questioning of witnesses. Five of the nine registered were at the trial. However, the defendant told the court he felt queasy. Judge Martin Saroyan declared a twenty minute recess, during which Malintsyan was given a shot of Dimedrol. He complained of numbness and said he might not be able to hear all the witnesses. The court nevertheless went ahead with their testimony. Aram Tadevosyan, a taxi driver, was one who testified. Two years ago he plied the Gyumri-Yerevan route. He said he knew Kristineh since they lived in the same neighborhood in Gyumri. Mr. Tadevosyan told the court that on several occasions Kristineh gave him a package to deliver to Yerevan. He would phone the number Kristineh had given him and the packages would be picked up. “Once, she gave me two gold rings to deliver. Another time it was an envelope full of cash. There was a medium size box another time,” Tadevosyan told the court. Another taxi driver, Azat Atoyan, also testified that he had taken a sum of money for Kristineh to Yerevan. Atoyan confessed he didn’t remember the amount. “I don’t remember if it was 60,000 or 100,000. I just know it wasn’t more than 100,000,” Atoyan said. After the witnesses finished testifying, the defendant complained about being sleepy. Judge Saroyan scheduled the next trial session for January 23.

Im with armenian and I simply don't understand, please help!
man replied to PolishGirl's topic in Love and Romance
Dear Polish Girl: Glad to hear again from you and see that you are in high spirit. You write: "I try to be a good woman for my man" Yes, indeed for in Proverb 12:4 we read: "An excellent wife is the crown of her husband." That Book of Proverbs is so good, so read & re-read it. You write: "..and follow the death [you mean 'to death'] of the biblical instruction regarding respective roles in life" "To death" is not the right word. We are not yet perfect and we make mistakes and come short, we try to improve our behavior and learn lessons from this life. The Baptists are so strict in things like that but as new born Christians we are in grace and should not feel so guilty when we come short. I hope you let your Armenian man read this thread in this Forum for to understand you better. You write: "You see it was him who came to my life and stole my heart.." As a Christian sister your heart must belong to Christ Jesus and He, Jesus, is the one that provides for you the proper right mate so you can grow spiritually and mentally and experience motherhood to the fullness of Christ. So first of all Jesus is your husband, then after that your physical mate in life. Before letting him steal your heart you should have been sure that he was a real brother-in-Christ and he will treat you as such, as a sister-in-Christ. You should have NOT let him take advantage of you since you are at an age when you long for someone to stand beside you, to hold, to hug and embrace you. The men know this weak point in females very well and can take advantage of. It looks you know the Bible very well, you need to be born-again in your spirit and be baptized in the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Christ who lives inside you along with your own spirit and guides and helps. This forum and advice from your friends will not help, your real helper should be the Holy Spirit abiding inside you. Well, the Holy Spirit likes you to be happy and dance, so take your man to a Polka dance party, I know if you are a Baptize you are not allowed to dance and do some other things. But Baptists are legalistic like the Pharisees in Jesus' time and most of what they teach is NOT of Jesus and is NOT of the Holy Spirit but rather from the own spirits of men who interpret the Word of God according to their own mindset and feelings and NOT that of God. So if you are Baptist then go look for a Charismatic Christian fellowship. God Bless and Take Care dear sister-in-Christ!
