HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — The Connecticut Senate on Saturday approved a compromise bill that would require special labels on food that contains genetically modified ingredients, so long as other states pass similar legislation. The unanimous vote came shortly after legislative leaders announced they had reached bipartisan agreement. It had appeared questionable whether the General Assembly would pass a genetic labeling proposal this session because the House and Senate had advanced competing bills. This year's session ends on June 5. House Speaker Brendan Sharkey, D-Hamden, said the House is committed to taking up the bill next before the legislature adjourns.

Here are Mercury, Venus and Jupiter as seen on June 1, 2013 from our friend Jean Baptiste Feldmann in France. He wrote, “Les trois planètes alignées ce soir. Quelques secondes plus tard, Jupiter était derrière les arbres !” (The three planets aligned tonight. A few seconds later, Jupiter was behind the trees!)

upiter, Venus and Mercury are all visible in the western sky after sunset in the first few days of June. Jupiter is exceedingly low in the sky, nearly buried in bright twilight, and disappears within the first week of June, only to return before dawn in late July 2013 for a spectacular conjunction with Mars in the predawn sky. For the Northern Hemisphere, June will provide the best evening showing of Mercury for 2013. Better yet, you can use Venus, the sky’s most brilliant planet, to locate nearby Mercury. Meanwhile, Saturn – shines noticeably brightly and highest up for the night around nightfall.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — A strong earthquake jolted Taiwan on Sunday, killing two people and injuring at least 21 others and causing panicked shoppers to rush out of a shaking multi-story department store, officials said. Another earthquake jolted the southern Philippines late Saturday, injuring at least 33 people and damaging more than 140 houses.

 

The tremor that hit Taiwan on Sunday afternoon was felt all over the island, but most severely in the central and southern regions. The magnitude-6.3 quake's epicenter was near Jenai township in Nantou County in central Taiwan, about 250 kilometers (155 miles) south of Taipei, the Central Weather Bureau said.

Jesus through John - These last moments of your illusory life experience are very intense

MomT's picture

We are one Consciousness, God (our Source), all those in the spiritual realms, and all those in physical form throughout all physical universes.  Love and all Its many aspects are conscious energy waves in infinite abundance flowing freely throughout creation, and anything not in alignment with Love is completely illusory.  God is Love and He could not and would not wish to create anything that was not in perfect harmony with Himself.  In Reality, in the divine Presence there is brilliant, awe-inspiring Light, in which there is total clarity, total understanding, total wisdom, and unconditional loving acceptance of all of God’s creations.  What you experience within the illusion – fear, anger, anxiety, suffering, in fact, general alarm, pain, and confusion – is UNREAL!  You built and maintained the illusion to experience lack of Love, and it seems that you succeeded!  But that is because you focus your attention on it to maintain and support it, and you are afraid to let it go.

Heaven Letters

God said:

Beloveds, you want to come to the aid of your fellow man yet not too much. Kindness is not always kind. It can be that your well-meaning kindness becomes a lack of confidence in the person you are kind to.

I agree with you. Choices in the world at large are not always easy to make or easy to live with. So many areas of life are toss-ups. Oh, yes, if you were always peak, on top of things, at the top of your mark, well-rested, omnipotent, you might flail less in the realm of life. You would be more certain. Yet certainty isn’t always reliable either.

Some startling revelations are shortly to be disclosed

Here in the spiritual realms, where we truly are not separated from you, excitement is building; in fact, we are bubbling over with it!  I know you have been told this countless times over the last few years, but it is incumbent on me to tell you yet again, humanity’s awakening is divinely ensured and the moment for it to happen is very close.  Many of you are feeling tired, angry, and depressed, almost as though you had been short-changed, conned, or even swindled by those who are telling you of the wonders that await your awakening. It seems that you have been waiting and waiting and waiting.  The waiting seems to have been interminable, so it is no wonder that you are feeling upset and that your doubts and anxieties have been intensifying.
