Rebecca Ferguson - Why Don't You Do It Right

I've always admired Diana Krall. But this rendition of 'Why Don't You Do It Right by Rebecca Ferguson on this years' X Factor is simply amazing. Infact, I've downloaded the video on my computer. Watch it for yourself, she's really good.

  

Patch Adams: 'You rested on the seventh day. Maybe you should've spent that day on compassion.'

 

It strikes me how most Hollywood movies seem to be bent on blaming the Creator for everything that has happened to man. I was watching this classic film - Patch Adams [1998] on TV the other night, and what the main character said about the Creator just wasn't right.



Patch Adams: 'You rested on the seventh day. Maybe you should've spent that day on compassion.'

Gen 2:3

And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done [NIV]

Yet the Patch Adams has all but forgotten about the other part of the story which says of God's warning, the warning itself was a manifestation of the Creator's caring attitude towards his creation:

Gen 2:17

but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."[NIV]

It was man's fault then, the word is Disobedience. The government prohibits murder, but man has is free to kill, yet he must pay the consequence of not abiding by the law, and I hear no one complaining why this is so.

But bear in mind that the first who disobeyed was the serpent or nachash/burning one, it was not Man nor the Woman who sinned first.

Gen 3:1

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"[NIV]

Before the law/command was, sin was already in the world:

Eze 28:13

You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you:...

Eze 28:14

You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones.

Eze 28:15

You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.

Rom 5:13

for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law.[NIV].

A murderer he was in the beginning, he did not hold on to the truth:

Jhn 8:44

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.[NIV]

Indeed the murderer/devil was not taken into account before the law. Which law?

Gen 2:17

but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."[NIV]

And God's words are truth according to his Son:

  Jhn 17:17     Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. [NIV]

However, the murderer did not hold on to the truth, instead he lied:

Gen 3:4

"You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman.[NIV]

By this lie, Man died, thus, he, the devil, was indeed a murderer in the beginning, for God says the Truth, and what he says will happen,

Gen 3:19

By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return."[NIV]

If it didn't, then what would that put out God to be? A Liar?

Hbr 6:18

God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged.

But they say, 'why did God create the forbidden tree in the first place? If it wasn't there none of it would have happened' But how can you have Free Will if you cannot choose?

 Isa 1:19  If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land; [NIV]


None of them obeyed. Thus, what Patch Adams was saying about compassion on the 7th day, was compassion for the real sinner -

Jhn 8:44

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.[NIV]

Notice how God passed judgement on the First Sinner:

Gen 3:14

So the Lord God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, "Cursed are you above all the livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life.[NIV]

Compassion on a Murderer who premeditated on his crime? Nonsense. The Murderer shall die.

Num 35:17

Or if anyone has a stone in his hand that could kill, and he strikes someone so that he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death.[NIV]

Gen 3:15

And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."

  Rev 20:14   Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.

Rev 20:10

And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever

   

Your Treachery Will Die With You! - Dying Fetus

Dying Fetus remains one of my top metal bands out there, just check this video out for yourself. Hands down on a great band such as this.

Lyrics:

Your Treachery Will Die With You

Anxiety of treachery, wary of the interloper
Never from the circle, the kindred you've confided in

Always from the stranger, is what you would believe?
Cold-blooded betrayal, something not easily forgotten.

Envy was the poisonous effect, flowing through your veins
Of what you should not covet, cowardly distain
You talked all your s***, you couldn't help yourself
Wanting to divulge, craving to share your exploit
Greed in being the king, naive of the penalty

Reveling secrets, proceeded to deceive
Never seen it coming blinded by camardine

Trust an afterthought, of what would not occur
Reflection powers fury, dominating need to act

Angst of retribution, only fleeting thought dismissed
Desire for revenge, strengthening resolve

Fleeing for respite, antagonism boiling over
Settling at hand, consider your life
Forfeit in every way, repugnance in my sight

Bash your ****** head in; don't feel that will be enough
Mesmerizing in your pain, salt the wound that burdened me
Your suffering is justified, afflict as much as i can bring
Contemplating what you've earned, all this anguish you deserve

Must prolong your agony, persecution cruelty
Carving you up like a pig, warranted distress you live
Vindicated mind-set spreads, all over me like gusting wind
Don't distress because I'm not done, we'll start all over later as one

Your back-stabbing morals have taken away my life
My conduct in your torture must make it worth it
Haven't thought out this process I've undertaken
Extend you affliction I'll work to keep you aware

Wide awake your torment makes me think of how you act
The all-embracing jealousy hidden surging in your shell
No suspicion on you, loved to play the game of loyalty
Misery saturates all know to find me satisfied

There will be no peace for me now
Distrust for anyone I'll ever encounter
Your treachery will die with you


   

Extreme Metal, Stuck on the Old Format I Am.

I must admit, I'm a bit of a dinosaur when it comes to Extreme Metal music. So many genres have come to light, stronger and more menacing than the old genres.

However, I'm still stuck with Nile, Cannibal Corpse, Dying Fetus, and Cephalic Carnage, and Suffocation. I used to be heavily into Deicide and Black Metal's Dark Funeral, but I've dropped these genres now.

Suffocation's latest offal - Blood Oath is reminiscent of Morbid Angel, yet the pounding beats remain their signature.

   

Zerg Rules - Starcraft 2

Zerg - Starcraft

Nothing beats the Zerg race in Starcraft. Their hideous looks; their dank, slimy, and creepy habitation; the diabolical sounds their structures as well as the units make when you click on them is simply amazing. Now that Starcraft 2 is out, I've come to appreciate this race even more. I'm still wondering what happened to that great Cerebrate Daggoth in Starcraft I.

The difference in strategies between the original Starcraft and the new release is quite annoying if you've only started playing the new release. I missed the lurker, these new units don't give justice to the loss of the unit. The other two races are just plain boring.

Right now my stats haven't changed much. 1 win to 2 losses. For those who enjoy RTS, you shouldn't miss getting a copy of Starcraft 2.

GeForce GT 240 1GB on Starcraft 2

Recently Starcraft 2 made the headlines on pc game news. I must admit that I've always been a fan of Starcraft Broodwar since 1998. I could never exchange RTS  to RPG, for the simple reason that RTS involves planning, executing, and finally reaping what you deserve in the end, be it loss or victory.

However, the game is a bit demanding interms of graphic cards. So I had to diss my old pc and buy a new one, was a bit anxious if the graphics card on my new pc would work on Starcraft 2 which is  NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 1GB. Well, it does work, if set on medium graphic settings. You can't go higher or your pc will crash.

Medium setting is enough for me, for so long as I can play the game. So for those who are curious if Starcraft 2 does work on GeForce GT 240, yes it does work.

Psychic Sally Real or Fake?

My wife and I usually sit comfortable on the settee late at night on certain days of the week watching Psychic Sally. Notice how she looks slimmer. She really is doing well, packed halls, fancy car, etc...

But to me, Sally Morgan appears pretty much staged. Those among the audience who were 'touched' by messages from the dead, could have been actors under her pay for all we know.

Anyways, have to cut this short, my wife loves her.

X Factor's Matt Cardle

He's got the voice of a rockstar, a bit bland in looks, but his entry to the X-Factor was simply astounding. Who would have thought a painter/decorator would have a voice like that? His version of Amy Winehouse 'You Know I'm No Good' was spectacular. Upon entering the X Factor contest he claimed to being a painter/decorator and that he was in his own words 'a bit of a bum'. This down-to-earth attitude of Matt was an added bonus indeed.

However, recent articles about him were not very positive, shedding light to his true colours, first he wasn't just a painter/decorator as he already was or is in a band called Seven Summers, I must admit that I downloaded the whole album off Amazon just to hear it, vedict - good. Then there's the verbal tussle between him and the other contestant Wagner, according to MTV.co.uk, Matt branded Wagner 'a f... joke' if he makes it to the finals.

But you just don't believe everything that the media puts out do you?

He's a good singer and thats it. Apart form Rebecca Ferguson, he's my best bet for this year's X Factor.
