Darkness draws near, yet we remain blind to its encroachment. As families, let us unite in prayer both in the morning and night, for though the antagonist may not be physically present, the spirit of his malevolence permeates. In this critical juncture, a call echoes—Now is the time to pray more than ever. There exists a season for everything, and in these moments of uncertainty, the power of collective prayer becomes our beacon against the impending shadows. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 3 months ago
The imminent era draws near when humanity may be replaced by AI, a technological realm infiltrated by ominous forces seeking Earth's destruction. A plea echoes to Christians and non-Christians alike: pray, pray for what is approaching—a war against spiritual dominion and mankind. Urgently beseech the divine, for the moment is now, not tomorrow. Tomorrow may be too late for some, as sad as it sounds. To those who hear the truth and resist obedience, be prepared to confront formidable forces. Let not your hearts harden, for in prayer lies the hope for divine intervention in the face of impending challenges. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 3 months ago
You are doing an excellent thing, one which will be wholesome for you, if, as you write me, you are persisting in your effort to attain sound understanding; it is foolish to pray for this when you can acquire it from yourself. We do not need to uplift our hands towards heaven, or to beg the keeper of a temple to let us approach his idol's ear, as if in this way our prayers were more likely to be heard. A god is near you, with you, and in you. This is what I mean, Lucilius: there sits a holy spirit within us, one who marks our good and bad deeds, and is our a guardian. – Lucius Annaeus Seneca	added by Normando 3 months ago
I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country; corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption in High Places will follow, and the Money Power of the Country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the People, until the wealth is aggregated in a few hands, and the Republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war. – Abraham Lincoln	added by Normando 5 months ago

Eyal Press writes in The New Yorker. Audm subscribers can listen to that article.)In the rest of today’s newsletter, we look more closely at the 10 states.Furthest alongInitiatives seem most likely to happen soon in two states.In Ohio, a coalition of abortion rights groups is collecting signatures to place an initiative on the ballot this year that would protect access through roughly the first 24 weeks of pregnancy. For now, most abortions remain legal in Ohio, thanks to a court ruling blocking a ban.In South Dakota, organizers are optimistic that they can collect the signatures needed for an initiative next year. It is a compromise measure that would seek to reinstate the minimum access required by the Roe v. Wade decision. All abortions would be legal in the first trimester (roughly 12 weeks), and some would be in the second trimester.Early effortsIn several other states, efforts have begun, but they’re less advanced.In Missouri, advocates have not yet settled on one approach. Some petitions — an early step to putting an initiative on the ballot — would protect most abortion access until 24 weeks of pregnancy. Others would be narrower and let the state enact parental consent laws.In Florida, where Gov. Ron DeSantis recently signed a near-total ban, advocates are hoping to place an initiative on the ballot that would allow most abortions until 24 weeks. But the state’s pro-marijuana movement helps highlight the slowness of the effort: Organizers of a 2024 ballot initiative to legalize marijuana have already raised $30 million and collected nearly all the required signatures — while organizers of an abortion initiative are just getting started.Arizona has tough rules for ballot initiatives, requiring hundreds of thousands of signatures on a petition. – Planned Parenthood	Found on New York Times 12 months ago

This is a large, voluntary trafficking operation run by a drug cartel who control the route and are the law in this part of the Colombian border near Panama, you pay to get here, you pay to overnight here, you pay to walk on. – Paton Walsh	Found on CNN 1 year ago
As disruptive and as damaging as this year’s flooding has been, it’s still nowhere near close to what we foresee is the plausible worst-case scenario, we know that climate change is essentially putting the weather on steroids and giving us greater and greater chances of seeing these extremely heavy precipitation events and severe floods, even as we also see more severe droughts and that in the same part of the world. – Daniel Swain	Found on CNN 1 year ago
They were, he recalled, what appeared to be near-verbatim transcripts of classified intelligence documents that OG indicated he had brought home from his job on a ‘military base,’ which the member declined to identify, oG claimed he spent at least some of his day inside a secure facility that prohibited cellphones and other electronic devices, which could be used to document the secret information housed on government computer networks or spooling out from printers. – The Washington Post	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I’ve been using the Rains bag for years after too many precarious snow-in-tote-near-my-work-laptop moments, it zips closed to be totally waterproof, meaning I can walk to work in the rain as much as I need to. It’s also lasted me almost four years now, so I ’d recommend it to anyone. – Kendra Sharp	Found on CNN 1 year ago

The flight to government bonds resulted in yields on the 10-year Treasury note falling from near 4% at the beginning of last week to 3.4% by mid-week, thereby reversing the recent trend of climbing mortgage rates. – Hannah Jones	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Water ice is, at present, not stable at the very surface of Mars near the equator at these elevations, so, it’s not surprising that we’re not detecting any water ice at the surface. It is possible that all the glacier’s water ice has sublimated away by now. But there’s also a chance that some of it might still be protected at shallow depth under the sulfate salts. – Pascal Lee	Found on CNN 1 year ago

I saw the effect in 1996. People were living with advanced AIDS and near death. They got access to these drugs, and we saw this transformation. People came back from being severely ill to thriving, gaining weight, going back to work. It was a challenge not seeing that happen in the African continent where the need was greatest. – John Blandford	Found on CNN 1 year ago
It’s bipartisan – that never happens around here on big bills, or rarely I should say. It would be a good start by Norfolk Southern to tell us today, in addition to what more they’re going to do for the people of Ohio and Pennsylvania, tell us today that they support the bill. That would help. If a major rail company said, ‘we support these reforms and will help you pass this bill,’ That’s what I think the people of both states deserve, we have a lot of work to do in the near term, but the future has to be about passing the Railway Safety Act. – Bob Casey	Found on CNN 1 year ago

What is a little more interesting now, and also visible tonight and this week, are the close and prominent positioning of Venus and Jupiter in the western sky right after sunset, the astronomical word for this is ‘conjunction.’ These planets will be setting as the moon is rising, so they are only visible for about an hour at sunset, near the western horizon. – Mike Hankey	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I don’t think there’s any question that we do not yet have inflation on a secure glide path anywhere near down to the 2% [Fed target] level, and until the Fed can be confident of that, it’s going to have to be tightening rather than easing. – Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers	Found on CNN 1 year ago
In order to put this episode of high inflation behind us, further policy tightening, maintained for a longer time, will likely be necessary, absent a substantial pickup in the share of working-age adults looking to be employed or a large change in immigration flows, labor force participation will continue to decline and worker shortages will persist, pushing up wages and ultimately prices, at least in the near and medium term. – San Francisco	Found on CNN 1 year ago

It could have been 100 years since (the species) was even in this area — and it’s been years since it’s been spotted anywhere near it. The next closest place that they’ve been found was 1,200 miles away, so very unlikely it would have traveled that far. – Michael Skvarla	Found on CNN 1 year ago
