"GIF" gives life to still photography...

Beautiful 'GIF' around the web; an amazing tech that gives life to still photography.

The Graphics Interchange Format (better known by its acronym GIF; /ˈdʒɪf/ or /ˈɡɪf/) is a bitmap image format that was introduced by CompuServe in 1987[1] and has since come into widespread usage on the World Wide Web due to its broad support and portability.

The format supports up to 8 bits per pixel for each image, allowing a single image to reference its own palette of up to 256 different colors chosen from the 24-bit RGB color space. It also supports animations and allows a separate palette of up to 256 colors for each frame.

WAR OF GOOD AND EVIL: which side are you...?

I have always argued on YouTube threads that Christians have
nothing to fear from the Biblical Beasts (Beast 666 (UN), Biblical Dragon (USA)
and the 2^nd Beast north of Babylon (NATO) because these beasts are
theirs bent on destroying Islam for reasons I can only speculate about – inevitable
WAR OF GOOD AND EVIL in the world.

How Many Muslim Countries Has the U.S. Bombed Or Occupied Since 1980? - The Intercept:

When Obama began bombing targets inside Syria in September,
I noted that it was the seventh predominantly Muslim country that had been
bombed by the U.S. during his presidency (that did not count Obama’s bombing of
the Muslim minority in the Philippines). I also previously noted that this new
bombing campaign meant that Obama had become the fourth consecutive U.S.
President to order bombs dropped on Iraq. Standing alone, those are both
amazingly revealing facts. American violence is so ongoing and continuous that
we barely notice it anymore. Just this week, a U.S. drone launched a missile
that killed 10 people in Yemen, and the dead were promptly labeled “suspected
militants” (which actually just means they are “military-age males”); those
killings received almost no discussion.

To get a full scope of American violence in the world, it is
worth asking a broader question: how many countries in the Islamic world has
the U.S. bombed or occupied since 1980? That answer was provided in a recent
Washington Post op-ed by the military historian and former U.S. Army Col.
Andrew Bacevich:

As America’s efforts to “degrade and ultimately destroy.”
Islamic State militants extended into Syria, and Iraq War III seamlessly morphed
into Greater Middle East Battlefield XIV. That is, Syria has become at least
the 14th country in the Islamic world that U.S. forces have invaded, occupied, or bombed and in which American soldiers have killed or been killed. And
that’s just since 1980.

Let’s tick them off: Iran (1980, 1987-1988), Libya (1981,
1986, 1989, 2011), Lebanon (1983), Kuwait (1991), Iraq (1991-2011, 2014-),
Somalia (1992-1993, 2007-), Bosnia (1995), Saudi Arabia (1991, 1996),
Afghanistan (1998, 2001-), Sudan (1998), Kosovo (1999), Yemen (2000, 2002-),
Pakistan (2004-) and now Syria. Whew.

Amusing Android Photo Apps…

Due to a lack of subjects, I use my TV as a source, scenes from my town, and picture files. With camera and photo editing apps almost limitless; combination of some make an amusing hobby like for instance – GIF cam application alone don’t give you the quality you desire but if you take 10-30 seconds of video of the scene that you want and use another application that convert your video into a GIF then you can choose 3-5 seconds from your video and convert it to a GIF and voila! Video collage is a nice application, but it gives you only seconds of video that plays your photos quickly. You need to click the play button every time to repeat, but you can convert that to a GIF to create a loop and play forever. You can also create video picture collages and stitch them together to make a longer video – and that's where Movie Maker comes in!

BIBLE PROPHESIES: The Caliph of Babylon

I have been arguing for Babylon for more than twenty years since the passage of UN Resolution 666 on September 13, 1990. I found it weird that Christians of all people who believe in the bible as a holy book refuse to accept the Biblical Babylon as the same Babylon referred to in the Book of Revelation. However, the same biblical places are mentioned by name. Whenever I mentioned UN Resolution 666, they looked at me wide-eyed, hearing it for the first time. With the advent of the internet and YouTube, I became even more open and argumentatively combative, especially with people on the web maligning Islam, the latest of which is the rise of ISIS. Finally, I found one who, scholarly as a Christian in authority, says that there is no other Babylon, as I have always been saying, other than the original Babylon of the Bible, which is Iraq. I have edited the following video to show only the parts describing Babylon. This man is rabidly anti-Islam. In fact, my thread on this video was: “UN Resolution 666 is the beginning of the end, you moron…the ISIS is just the natural evolution of your Christian government’s evils in the Middle East.”

THE QUR’AN AND THE MINDBOGGLING DARK ENERGY

It is hard to imagine that the following verses were written 1,400 years ago. It is easier to comprehend the moon being rent asunder or the earth shaken to its core. Still, the idea of the stars dimming and the heavens being rent asunder is something we accept, despite its impossibility, simply because God says so. The following one-minute video is a clip from a 44-minute scientific documentary that I also embedded here for those who have the time.

Qur’an 51:47: ‘Verily: we can extend the vastness of space thereof.’

Qur’an 77: 7-9 “Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass.. (7) Then when the stars become dim; (8) When the heaven is cleft asunder; (9)”

THE HAJJ - The Last Sermon

“O people - your Lord is One, and your father is one: all of you are from Adam, and Adam was from the ground. The noblest of you in Allah’s sight is the most God-fearing: Arab has no merit over non-Arab other than piety.”

O people: the Devil has despaired of ever being worshipped in this land of yours, though he is content to be obeyed in other works of yours that you deem to be of little importance. 

O people: postponing the inviolability of a sacred month [claiming to postpone the prohibition of killing in it to a subsequent month, so as to continue warring despite the holy month’s having arrived] is a surfeit of unbelief, by which those who disbelieve are led astray, making it lawful one year and unlawful in another, in order to match the number [of months] Allah has made inviolable. Time has verily come to a complete turn on how it was the day Allah created the heavens and the earth. Four months there are which are inalienable, three in a row and forth by itself: Dhul Qa‘da, Dhul Hijja, and Muharram; and Rajab, which lies between Jumada and Sha‘ban. Have I given the message?—O Allah, be my witness.

O people: verily you owe your women their rights, and they owe you yours. They may not lay with another man in their beds, let anyone into their houses they do not want without their permission, or commit indecency. If they do, Allah has given you leave to debar them, send them from your beds, or [finally] strike them in a way that does no harm. But if they desist and obey you, then you must provide for them and clothe them fittingly. The women who live with you are like captives, unable to manage for themselves: you took them as a trust from Allah and enjoyed their sex as lawful through a word [legal ruling] from Allah. So fear Allah in respect to women, and concern yourselves with their welfare. Have I given the message?—O Allah, be my witness.

O people, believers are but brothers. No one may take his brother’s property without his full consent. Have I given the message?—O Allah, be my witness. Never go back to being unbelievers, smiting each other’s necks, for verily, I have left among you that which, if you take it, you will never stray after me: the Book of Allah. Have I given the message?—O Allah, be my witness.

O people, your Lord is One, and your Father is one: all of you are from Adam, and Adam was from the ground. The noblest of you in Allah’s sight is the most god-fearing: Arab has no merit over non-Arab other than godfearingness. Have I given the message?—O Allah, be my witness. —At this, they said yes.

He said, Then let whoever is present tell whoever is absent.

O people, Allah has apportioned to every deserving heir his share of the estate, and no deserving heir may accept a special bequest, and no special bequest may exceed a third of the estate. A child’s lineage is that of the [husband who owns the] bed, and adulterers shall be stoned. Whoever claims to be the son of someone besides his father or a bondsman who claims to belong to other than his masters shall bear the curse of Allah and the angels and all men: no deflecting of it or ransom for it shall be accepted from him.
