    Parallel Dimensions & the Power of Blood pt.1/6

    Posted by admin on April 7th, 2010 and filed under fiction books | 25 Comments »

    Stories like the Creation, the Garden of Eden, the Tower of Babel have been presented with child like imagery. But what does the original language tell us from a 21st century perspective?

    Blood is associated with changes made because of Eden. This ties into Parallel dimensions but first we need to see the myths and legends about blood which leads us to the study of Vampires.

    You will be amazed to the clarity and logic of re-discovering the scriptures beyond fairy tale like stories. There is a reality that exists with logic to these stories never before understood.

    From the Author of “Beyond Science Fiction”, Rev. Jim Wilhelmsen reveals it all.

    Tim O’Reilly, Founder and CEO of O’Reilly Media, argues that microblogging service Twitter is changing real-time information search in a way that will revolutionize the web. O’Reilly goes on to discuss the impact web search engines like Google have had on shaping human/computer interactivity.

    —–

    FORA.tv Studios presents Tim O’Reilly, founder and CEO of O’Reilly Media, speaking to Blaise Zerega, President and CEO of FORA.tv, about the origins of Web 2.0, the rise of Twitter and the investment that got away.

O’Reilly Media also publishes online through the O’Reilly Network and hosts conferences on technology topics, including the O’Reilly Open Source Convention, the O’Reilly Emerging Technology Conference, and the Web 2.0 Conference. Tim’s blog, the O’Reilly Radar “watches the alpha geeks” to determine emerging technology trends, and serves as a platform for advocacy about issues of importance to the technical community. Tim is on the boards of MySQL, CollabNet, Safari Books Online, Wesabe, and ValuesOfN, and is a partner in O’Reilly AlphaTech Ventures.

    Blaise Zerega comes to FORA.tv from Conde Nast Portfolio where he served as deputy editor and led the magazine’s technology coverage. Prior to holding that position, Zerega was managing editor and played a critical role in the launch of both Portfolio.com and the magazine. Both properties have earned the highest industry honors. Before joining Portfolio, Zerega was the managing editor of WIRED. He helped Wired earn numerous prizes, including a National Magazine Award for General Excellence in 2004 and another for the Single-Topic Issue category in 2002. Wired was also named best magazine in America by the Chicago Tribune in 2004. Zerega was also the editor of Red Herring magazine, once the bible of Silicon Valley, and the news editor at Forbes ASAP. Zerega makes frequent media appearances and has been on such programs as Today and The View as well as on NPR and CNN.
