January 11: Genesis 22–23; Matthew 6:25–34; Psalm 11; Proverbs 3:19–20

Old Testament:

Genesis 22–23

Genesis 22–23 (Listen)

The Sacrifice of Isaac

22 After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” 2 He said, “Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” 3 So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac. And he cut the wood for the burnt offering and arose and went to the place of which God had told him. 4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar. 5 Then Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey; I and the boyOr young man; also verse 12‘>1 will go over there and worship and come again to you.” 6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. And he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together. 7 And Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” 8 Abraham said, “God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together.

9 When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. 10 Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. 11 But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” 12 He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” 13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 So Abraham called the name of that place, “The LORD will provide”;Or will see‘>2 as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the LORD it shall be provided.”Or he will be seen‘>3

15 And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham a second time from heaven 16 and said, “By myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of hisOr their‘>4 enemies, 18 and in your offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.” 19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beersheba. And Abraham lived at Beersheba.

20 Now after these things it was told to Abraham, “Behold, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor: 21 Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram, 22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.” 23 (Bethuel fathered Rebekah.) These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother. 24 Moreover, his concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.

Sarah’s Death and Burial

23 Sarah lived 127 years; these were the years of the life of Sarah. 2 And Sarah died at Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham went in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her. 3 And Abraham rose up from before his dead and said to the Hittites,Hebrew sons of Heth; also verses 5, 7, 10, 16, 18, 20‘>5 4 “I am a sojourner and foreigner among you; give me property among you for a burying place, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.” 5 The Hittites answered Abraham, 6 “Hear us, my lord; you are a prince of GodOr a mighty prince‘>6 among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will withhold from you his tomb to hinder you from burying your dead.” 7 Abraham rose and bowed to the Hittites, the people of the land. 8 And he said to them, “If you are willing that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me and entreat for me Ephron the son of Zohar, 9 that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he owns; it is at the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in your presence as property for a burying place.”

10 Now Ephron was sitting among the Hittites, and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the Hittites, of all who went in at the gate of his city, 11 “No, my lord, hear me: I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the sight of the sons of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead.” 12 Then Abraham bowed down before the people of the land. 13 And he said to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, “But if you will, hear me: I give the price of the field. Accept it from me, that I may bury my dead there.” 14 Ephron answered Abraham, 15 “My lord, listen to me: a piece of land worth four hundred shekelsA shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 grams‘>7 of silver, what is that between you and me? Bury your dead.” 16 Abraham listened to Ephron, and Abraham weighed out for Ephron the silver that he had named in the hearing of the Hittites, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weights current among the merchants.

17 So the field of Ephron in Machpelah, which was to the east of Mamre, the field with the cave that was in it and all the trees that were in the field, throughout its whole area, was made over 18 to Abraham as a possession in the presence of the Hittites, before all who went in at the gate of his city. 19 After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah east of Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan. 20 The field and the cave that is in it were made over to Abraham as property for a burying place by the Hittites.

Do Not Be Anxious

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?Or a single cubit to his stature; a cubit was about 18 inches or 45 centimeters‘>1 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Best Indian Starter Dishes Every Food Lover Should Try!

At all the Indian parties, the starters are the main star of the food course. People remember the number of the starters served in the events more than anything else about that event. The taste and the quantity both matter the most when it comes to the starters. This is the main reason why most Indians look for Indian starters, whether they are in India or in any other part of the world.

All of the Indian food restaurants in Amsterdam, Germany, Russia, the USA, or other parts of the world serve different Indian starters. Not just Indians but also non-Indians visit the most authentic Indian restaurants in Amsterdam, Germany, or in other parts of Europe to taste the Indian starters. Some of the Indian food restaurants in Amsterdam have different types of the chicken starters, such as pakoras, tikkas, kababs, etc. Some pure vegetarian authentic Indian restaurants Amsterdam also serve various Indian vegetarian starters such as Aloo Tikki, India's favourite samosa or different types of pakoda.

Some of the Indian starters that every food lover should try are:

Paneer pakora

Paneer pakoras are deep fried evening snacks which taste best with a cup of evening tea. These paneer pakoras are soft and chewy inside and have a crispy texture outside. The crispy texture is due to the besan batter, which is made up of gram flour (a finely grounded skinned black chickpeas), cold water and salt and different spices according to your taste. Within 30 minutes, a plate full of paneer pakoras can be prepared, and you can serve it or eat it with tomato ketchup or mint chutney while they are still hot.

Seekh kabab

Seekh kababs are types of kabab that are first minced and ground and then placed on the skewers by making them into cylinders, then cooked by grilling on the barbecue or by placing the skewers in the tandoor. In India, the meat used to make kebabs are chicken or lambs. The kababs are juicy and seasoned with different spices.

Onion Bhaji

They are deep-fried finely sliced onions in a besan batter. They are perfectly crispy evening snacks. It can be served or eaten with tomato ketchup or spicy chili sauce, or mint chutney, while they are still hot. It can also be served with raita or Indian curry.

Samosa

From the perfect snacks for a tea break in an Indian office or snacks for guests in the Indian family, Samosas have always been the preferable snacks of all time. The Filling is made up of mashed potatoes, peas, and different spices, and to make it a luxurious snack, and dry fruits are also added in the fillings. They are wrapped in fresh dough and deep-fried in hot oil to make the outside crispy and crusty. It can be eaten with sweet-sour tamarind (imli) chutney or mint chutney.

Chicken Pakora

The favourite evening snacks for Indians are pakoras, especially in the rainy seasons. For vegetarians, it's paneer, and for non-vegetarians, it's definitely chicken pakoras. The chicken pakora is a crispy deep-fried starter, which is made by dipping the small chicken pieces in the besan batter (containing salt, different spices and herbs, ginger and garlic paste). They are crunchy outside but soft and tender inside.

Aloo Tikki

Aloo Tikki has a crispy and crusty texture outside. They are made up of mashed potatoes and peas, and different spices and herbs are added to the mixture. A scoop of the mixture is taken and then pressed down to make small patties. As they are mainly made from potatoes and have a patty shape, they are also known as Potato Patties. They can also be used with other recipes to make different snacks such as Veg burger or Dahi aloo Tikki.

Grilled Chicken

The best and healthy way to eat chicken is to grill it as it has a high nutritional value, high content of protein, and low in calories and fat. For health-conscious people, grilled chicken is one of the best choices to eat something tasty and healthy. You can make the seasonings simply by mixing different spices (salt, red or black pepper), garlic, a few herbs, fresh lemon juice, and olive oil (it is best to add moistness and flavour and prevent the chicken from getting dry, or sticking to the grill.

All of the above-mentioned snacks are famous not just in India but all around the world. No matter what is your location, these scrumptious and super tasty

authentic indian restaurant Amsterdam

Food science: Exploding Crazy Uncle Georges's myth....... Eating more and more tryptophan does not suddenly increase your concentration of serotonin, because cells have critical self-regulating mechanisms that either turn on or off serotonin production. Human physiology keeps things like serotonin and melatonin under tight control, producing enough to keep us running smoothly. Eating an excessive amount of tryptophan isn't going to force the body to produce serotonin and melatonin in excessive amounts Turkey and tryptophan – does it cause sleep? First, turkey is not a huge source of tryptophan. Beef, chicken, turkey, lamb and pork all have approximately the same amount of tryptophan per serving of meat–around 0.21-o.25 g per 100g of food. In other words, if sleep were induced by eating turkey because of tryptophan, then we would observe the same effect with steak, burgers, or fried chicken. And the myth of sleep has never existed with those meats. Second, even if turkey (or any meat) had excess tryptophan, the problem is that the amino acid is not selectively taken up by the brain. All amino acids are required by the nervous system to synthesize proteins, so the blood brain barrier, a layer of cells between the brain and the blood, which selectively permits certain molecules to pass through to the brain, regulates how many amino acids pass into the brain. So, if you eat 250 grams of turkey, it’s broken down into 22 different amino acids, all competing at the blood brain barrier to cross into the brain. Tryptophan has zero advantage in being transported over all the other 21 important amino acids. Third, like I mentioned above, the serotonin synthesis system works independently of the concentration of tryptophan itself. Finally, even if you consume tryptophan on an empty stomach, which would negate most of the competition between tryptophan and other amino acids at the blood brain barrier, there’s simply no evidence that supplementary tryptophan has any effect on mood disorders, which implies that tryptophan, whether from a turkey or not, really has no effect on sleep after consumption.

December 21: Amos 6–9; John 13:31–38; Psalm 141; Proverbs 30:17

New Post has been published on https://loveofyhwh.com/december-21-amos-6-9-john-1331-38-psalm-141-proverbs-3017/

December 21: Amos 6–9; John 13:31–38; Psalm 141; Proverbs 30:17

Old Testament:

Amos 6–9

Amos 6–9 (Listen)

Woe to Those at Ease in Zion

6 “Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who feel secure on the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the first of the nations, to whom the house of Israel comes! 2 Pass over to Calneh, and see, and from there go to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are you better than these kingdoms? Or is their territory greater than your territory, 3 O you who put far away the day of disaster and bring near the seat of violence? 4 “Woe to those who lie on beds of ivory and stretch themselves out on their couches, and eat lambs from the flock and calves from the midst of the stall, 5 who sing idle songs to the sound of the harp and like David invent for themselves instruments of music, 6 who drink wine in bowls and anoint themselves with the finest oils, but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph! 7 Therefore they shall now be the first of those who go into exile, and the revelry of those who stretch themselves out shall pass away.”

8 The Lord GOD has sworn by himself, declares the LORD, the God of hosts:

“I abhor the pride of Jacob and hate his strongholds, and I will deliver up the city and all that is in it.”

9 And if ten men remain in one house, they shall die. 10 And when one’s relative, the one who anoints him for burial, shall take him up to bring the bones out of the house, and shall say to him who is in the innermost parts of the house, “Is there still anyone with you?” he shall say, “No”; and he shall say, “Silence! We must not mention the name of the LORD.”

11 For behold, the LORD commands, and the great house shall be struck down into fragments, and the little house into bits. 12 Do horses run on rocks? Does one plow thereOr the sea‘>1 with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into wormwoodOr into bitter fruit‘>2— 13 you who rejoice in Lo-debar,Lo-debar means nothing‘>3 who say, “Have we not by our own strength captured KarnaimKarnaim means horns (a symbol of strength)‘>4 for ourselves?” 14 “For behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel,” declares the LORD, the God of hosts; “and they shall oppress you from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of the Arabah.”

Warning Visions

7 This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, he was forming locusts when the latter growth was just beginning to sprout, and behold, it was the latter growth after the king’s mowings. 2 When they had finished eating the grass of the land, I said,

“O Lord GOD, please forgive! How can Jacob stand? He is so small!” 3 The LORD relented concerning this: “It shall not be,” said the LORD.

4 This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, the Lord GOD was calling for a judgment by fire, and it devoured the great deep and was eating up the land. 5 Then I said,

“O Lord GOD, please cease! How can Jacob stand? He is so small!” 6 The LORD relented concerning this: “This also shall not be,” said the Lord GOD.

7 This is what he showed me: behold, the Lord was standing beside a wall built with a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand. 8 And the LORD said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said,

“Behold, I am setting a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel; I will never again pass by them; 9 the high places of Isaac shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste, and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.”

Amos Accused

10 Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel. The land is not able to bear all his words. 11 For thus Amos has said,

“‘Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel must go into exile away from his land.’”

12 And Amaziah said to Amos, “O seer, go, flee away to the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there, 13 but never again prophesy at Bethel, for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a temple of the kingdom.”

14 Then Amos answered and said to Amaziah, “I wasOr am; twice in this verse‘>5 no prophet, nor a prophet’s son, but I was a herdsman and a dresser of sycamore figs. 15 But the LORD took me from following the flock, and the LORD said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’ 16 Now therefore hear the word of the LORD.

“You say, ‘Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not preach against the house of Isaac.’

17 Therefore thus says the LORD:

“‘Your wife shall be a prostitute in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided up with a measuring line; you yourself shall die in an unclean land, and Israel shall surely go into exile away from its land.’”

The Coming Day of Bitter Mourning

8 This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And he said, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A basket of summer fruit.” Then the LORD said to me,

“The endThe Hebrew words for end and summer fruit sound alike‘>6 has come upon my people Israel; I will never again pass by them. 3 The songs of the templeOr palace‘>7 shall become wailingsOr The singing women of the palace shall wail‘>8 in that day,” declares the Lord GOD. “So many dead bodies!” “They are thrown everywhere!” “Silence!” 4 Hear this, you who trample on the needy and bring the poor of the land to an end, 5 saying, “When will the new moon be over, that we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, that we may offer wheat for sale, that we may make the ephah small and the shekelAn ephah was about 3/5 bushel or 22 liters; a shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 grams‘>9 great and deal deceitfully with false balances, 6 that we may buy the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals and sell the chaff of the wheat?” 7 The LORD has sworn by the pride of Jacob: “Surely I will never forget any of their deeds. 8 Shall not the land tremble on this account, and everyone mourn who dwells in it, and all of it rise like the Nile, and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?” 9 “And on that day,” declares the Lord GOD, “I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight. 10 I will turn your feasts into mourning and all your songs into lamentation; I will bring sackcloth on every waist and baldness on every head; I will make it like the mourning for an only son and the end of it like a bitter day. 11 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord GOD, “when I will send a famine on the land— not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD. 12 They shall wander from sea to sea, and from north to east; they shall run to and fro, to seek the word of the LORD, but they shall not find it. 13 “In that day the lovely virgins and the young men shall faint for thirst. 14 Those who swear by the Guilt of Samaria, and say, ‘As your god lives, O Dan,’ and, ‘As the Way of Beersheba lives,’ they shall fall, and never rise again.”

The Destruction of Israel

9 I saw the Lord standing besideOr on‘>10 the altar, and he said:

“Strike the capitals until the thresholds shake, and shatter them on the heads of all the people;Hebrew all of them‘>11 and those who are left of them I will kill with the sword; not one of them shall flee away; not one of them shall escape. 2 “If they dig into Sheol, from there shall my hand take them; if they climb up to heaven, from there I will bring them down. 3 If they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, from there I will search them out and take them; and if they hide from my sight at the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them. 4 And if they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it shall kill them; and I will fix my eyes upon them for evil and not for good.” 5 The Lord GOD of hosts, he who touches the earth and it melts, and all who dwell in it mourn, and all of it rises like the Nile, and sinks again, like the Nile of Egypt; 6 who builds his upper chambers in the heavens and founds his vault upon the earth; who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out upon the surface of the earth— the LORD is his name. 7 “Are you not like the Cushites to me, O people of Israel?” declares the LORD. “Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor and the Syrians from Kir? 8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the surface of the ground, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” declares the LORD. 9 “For behold, I will command, and shake the house of Israel among all the nations as one shakes with a sieve, but no pebble shall fall to the earth. 10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, ‘Disaster shall not overtake or meet us.’

The Restoration of Israel

11 “In that day I will raise up the booth of David that is fallen and repair its breaches, and raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old, 12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,”Hebrew; Septuagint (compare Acts 15:17) that the remnant of mankind and all the nations who are called by my name may seek the Lord‘>12 declares the LORD who does this. 13 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when the plowman shall overtake the reaper and the treader of grapes him who sows the seed; the mountains shall drip sweet wine, and all the hills shall flow with it. 14 I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit. 15 I will plant them on their land, and they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them,” says the LORD your God.

ELECTRIC MARIJUANA

(Color pencils on paper, enhanced with ArcSoft PhotoImpressions software)

(During the course of my career in non-profit quality control, I smoked marijuana every day for 29 of the past 42 years. Marijuana can be a good medicine, and I found that it often inspired me.

My favorite imported kinds of marijuana were Punta Roja Colombian, "Thai sticks", and Mexican from Oaxaca.

I also enjoyed some of the hashish that came from Lebanon, Afghanistan, and Nepal. The hashoil I smoked that came from Morocco greatly lifted my spirits and provided unique insight. "Bubble Hash" made in Berkeley gave me colorful visions.

I even quaffed Hi-Brew Beer [early 1980s marijuana/alcohol beverage].

[In the 1970s I trimmed MANY pounds of marijuana. One of my associates, a taxi driver who claimed that he had “rolled so many joints I don’t have any fingerprints left” was so impressed that he borrowed my scissors and had them plated with gold.]

Surfing on a toke–and when the bowl of the pipe looks like the Grand Canyon, I know I’ve almost had enough…

[Willie Nelson won 10 Grammy awards, and has appeared in 37 movies and TV shows. More than 40 million copies of his more than 100 albums have been sold. He has smoked marijuana for MANY years. Nelson is an outspoken advocate for the drug and has been arrested several times for possession of marijuana. He was arrested in 2006 for possessing marijuana and hallucinogenic mushrooms. His latest song is titled "Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die".

—from an Associated Press news report, 4.21. 2012.]

["I smoke two joints in the morning I smoke two joints at night I smoke two joints in the afternoon It makes me feel all right"

"I smoke two joints in time of peace And two in time of war I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints And then I smoke two more"

—Chris Kay and Michael Kay, in their 1983 song "Smoke Two Joints", which was recorded by The Toyes.]

["One toke over the line sweet Jesus One toke over the line"

"Waitin’ for the train that goes home sweet Mary Hopin’ that the train is on time Sittin’ downtown in a railway station One toke over the line"

—Mike Brewer and Tom Shipley, in their 1970 song "One Toke Over The Line". Vice President Spiro Agnew did not like the song and called it "subversive". After being investigated on suspicion of conspiracy, bribery, extortion, and tax fraud, Agnew was convicted of felony tax evasion and forced to resign.]

["He said ‘drugs make you too pleased with everything.’"

—Sarah Seiter, associate curator of Natural Sciences at the Oakland Museum of California, quoting David Hockney on the connection between drugs and creativity. Seiter was quoted by Paul Kilduff in an interview about a current show, "Altered State: Marijuana in California". The East Bay Monthly, July 2016 issue.

I think I somewhat understand what Hockney said, and I think there is truth in his statement. I also think that I often find great value and much joy in seeing beauty in both the wheat AND the chaff!]

Here is a list of some of the kinds of cannabis I have smoked that were obtained from "medical marijuana" stores in the San Francisco bay area. [From labels I saved.]

Blueberry Tsunami Outdoor Rom Trainwreck Orange Hill Special Red Widow Smoothelove Dutch Passionkush Northern Green Spice Nor Kali Black Spice Sensi Star Organic Main Wreck Sour Diesel Ice Ice Fruity Bliss Organic Remedy NYC Diesel S1-5 Organic Super Silver Haze Morning Star Snow Cap Sun Grown Purple OG Jedi Sweet Nightmare Kosher Strawberries Dirty Little Pig Durbin Poison Oracle Space Cowboy Bubble Haze White Widow Mountain Kick Snow White Sun Grown Diesel Yumbolt Co-op Organic Flo Candyland Silvercratic Sun Grown Chocolope Pineapple Kush Organic Purple Haze Goo-5 Nor Kali Kaui Kola Dynomite Nor Kali Buddha’s Haze Old Grand Huck Grape Ape Sour Diesel Lemon Buddha’s Sister Super Jack Organic Rom Thai Third Eye Pink Champagne World Wide Widow Afgootiva Greased Lightning Outdoor Organic Humboldt Balance Cherry Pie Herijuana Peak 19 Organic Mazar Outdoor Train Crossing Organic Shaman Super Star Rhino Burmese Double Dream Jelly Caramel Kahuna Shiva’s Tears Organic A-10 Purple Burmese Lemon Skunk x Royal Orange Mendo Blendo The Sativa Organic Hawaiian Snow Purple Kush Domina Organic Ultra Skunk Sage ‘n’ Sour Outdoor Organic Kam Tree-W Da Kind Jack Frost Pot O’ Gold Shiva Afghani Gorilla’s Mist Strawberry Cough Sativa 2 Organic Jane Organic Purple Way Outdoor Organic Bonkers Organic Purps Outdoor Organic Goo Juicy Fruit Blue Dream Mind Eraser Pearly Baker Animal Cookies Lavender Goo Titan OG White Russian Sonoma Coma Organic Sticky Nurple MK Ultra Outdoor Organic Trainwreck x White Widow Organic Sweetleaf Organic Purple Ice Jack Herer God’s Gift Outdoor Organic Purple Mendo Organic Ogre Organic Trance William’s Wonder x Northern Lights Blue Ogre Organic Lamb’s Bread Champagne Black Bunanna Super Chunk Organic Rom Cross Sun Grown Goji Jack Rom Hottie Organic Slider Sunshine Grown Green Dragon El Bueno Jakki Organic Time Warp Durban Dream Organic Mist Cookie Pie Mantanuska TF Pineapple Trainwreck Organic Mantanuska Mist Organic Mothership Traincrash Swazi Haze Golden Goo Organic Trance Jack’l Berry Outdoor Mysty Purple Peak 19 AK-47 Sage Motor City Purple Erkel Crazy Hazy Bright Star Green Crack Power Plant Organic Cindy 99 Skunk #2 Organic Bonana Outdoor Organic Hash Plant Baby Blues Cat Piss Mr. Nice (G 13 x Hash Plant) Girl Scout Cookies African Sativa Romadelic Outdoor Organic Madness Outdoor Organic Blue Dot Sour Daze Thin Mint Grand Daddy Purple Spicy Jack Outdoor Organic Pure Rezin Old Mother Sativa Master Yoda Kush Mountain Girl Green Ribbon Super Wreck Sapphire Star Bombshell Also Known As Pea Soup Pirate’s Kush Leda Una Northern Lights x Big Bud All Star Organic Oaktown Wreck Raspberry Diesel ["18.2% THC", grown by "Fleur d’elite"] San Fernando Valley OG ["The Weed Brand Preroll. 1 gram"] Key Lime Pie ["Humboldt Farms" "Premium Flower-Hybrid" "15.2% THC, 0.00% CBD" "Harvested on July 2018, Packaged on July 2018" "One-Eighth Ounce" in a clear glass jar with a stopper made of wood. The label has a 1" x 2" colorful detailed image of tall trees and small flowers and a small white Volkswagen van. Printed with metallic ink. After smoking some Key Lime Pie I decided that, in my opinion, this extremely appealing image is the best illustration I have seen on a cannabis label.] Taffie (This medical cannabis strain is sold in cork-lined light-proof well-labeled tins, each containing 5 joints. The tins come sealed in a bag that contains a Boveda 2-way humidity control packet. This product is distributed by Humboldt Legends, and is labeled Steelhead Sativa. Organically grown in sunlight and harvested by hand. The label has the name [and a copy of the handwritten signature] of the person who grew the marijuana [Scott Davies]. Also the batch number and the percentages of THC [19.5%] and CBD [0.0%]. The label on the back of the tin states that the group of cultivators who call themselves "Humboldt Legends" have been growing marijuana for "forty years". A warning note states that marijuana is a “Schedule 1 controlled substance”. And that “Smoking this product will expose you and those in your immediate vicinity to marijuana smoke…known to the State of California to cause cancer.” “Keep out of reach of children and animals.” "This product may impair the ability to drive or operate machinery." Obtained in the San Francisco bay area, 2017. [After I smoked some of this marijuana in a dark room, I closed my eyes and saw beautiful hallucinations that were extremely complex, with uniquely vivid colors. When I opened my eyes I had a VERY strong urge to write poetry.]) "Top Shelf Rainbow Diesel Minis [Sativa]" [small joints] "Top Shelf Hell OG Minis [Indica]" [small joints] "Mericanna" hybrid [small joint] "16.79% THC" [2018] "Pacific Remedy Shatter joint, hand rolled in California" "Blue Russian flower, Kosher Kush, BHO Snake" "Indica-dominant" [2017] "Sublime King Fuzzies", pre-rolled joint, terpene-enhanced "top shelf bud, CO2 wax/kief", "Indica OG Kush" "THC 253 mg". [2017] Trix Bubble [concentrate] "Shiva Crystals" [hashish] "Select" brand "Mimosa" "cannabis oil vape cartridge" [125 doses per cartridge] 3.5 mg THC per dose. [from the "Select" brand label: "Curating the Science of Feeling" [2018] Cali Gold H20 [extracted cannabis resin] "Emerald Dream" ["Single Origin"] [Trinity County, CA] [58% THC] cannabis oil extracted with CO2 [cartridge for use with "Highlighter" vapor pen]

[A few times I have gone for months without smoking marijuana, and then smoked a potent joint. On more than one such occasion I have experienced intense fearful disorientation, acute paranoia, and horrible physical distress including nausea and a sudden loss of consciousness. CAUTION IS ESSENTIAL!]

I have eaten a variety of cannabis preparations sold at "medical marijuana" stores in Berkeley, including:

"Butter Brothers" brand Brownies, Phat Mints, Blackberry Streusel, Ginger Snaps, Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Peanut Butter Cookies. "Pura Vida" brand Ocean Spray, Happy Trails, Chocolate Jubilee, and Chocolate Chip Protein Bar. "Ganja Candy" brand Caramel, Blackberry, and Dr. Pepper.

"Full Extract Cannabis Oil" [Indica-dominant strain, for oral use. Full-plant extracted with ethyl alcohol. Dated 12.1. 2015 and provided in a 3 milliliter oral syringe marked for 0.1 milliliter doses. "THC 37.05%"] Stokes brand "Mint Micros" [Sativa-strain] [small tablets, each containing 5mg of cannabis extract] [I have used 2 different flavors: Mint and Watermelon] OMedibles brand "Tree Hugger Medical Cannabis Cinnamon Maple" [high CBD extract mixed with nuts and spices] Utopia Farms brand "Medical Cannabis Raspberry Macaroons" "Cafe Attitude THCoffee" 40 mg THC per 8 oz. bottle ["70% Sativa, 30% Indica"] "Evil Aunt Emily’s Seriously Psychotic Suckers" [cannabis oil candy]) "Sprig" brand citrus soda containing 45 milligrams THC per can. Made in California. [2017] "Petra" brand "Moroccan mint"-flavored medical cannabis tablets, each containing 2.5 milligrams THC plus matcha tea. Produced in 2017 by Kiva, a not-for-profit collective. Lab tested by CW Analytical. "A micro-dosed blend." Packaged in tins containing 42 tablets.

[It is not uncommon for people to have EXTREMELY negative experiences after they have eaten too much of a product containing cannabis. CAUTION IS ESSENTIAL!]

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT SALES OF SO-CALLED "MEDICAL MARIJUANA" AT STORES IN BERKELEY:

I have seen marijuana contaminated by toxic insecticides that was purchased from (city-approved) so-called "medical marijuana" stores in Berkeley. I have seen marijuana contaminated with other toxic chemicals that was purchased from so-called "medical marijuana" stores in Berkeley. I have seen marijuana contaminated with toxic mold that was purchased at so-called "medical marijuana" stores in Berkeley. As of this writing, there are no enforced standards that designate who may or may not be so-called "medical marijuana" grower-sellers in the city of Berkeley. These for-profit privately-owned stores charge an obscenely high price for their questionable products. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT MARIJUANA CAN BE ONE OF THE VERY BEST MEDICINES IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!! (Depending upon the type and dose of marijuana, the route of administration, and the set and setting in which it is used.) BUT BEWARE: Greedy and/or stupid capitalists selling untested products grown by greedy and/or stupid amateurs ARE NOT BEHAVING IN A RESPONSIBLE MANNER!

("…marijuana is not legal."

—Ed Rosenthal, interviewed by Paul Kilduff, The Monthly, December 2014.)

("Indeed, positive hits for pathogenic mold are already changing grower operations. ‘You smoke ten random samples of cannabis and you’ve most likely smoked aspergillus [mold],’ said Dave, one of the lab’s two founders. ‘It’s in there, often at unacceptable levels. Now it’s up to the industry to respond. We also are not in a position where we want to make enemies and piss people off. We want to see it happen in the best way for the movement and the industry to kind of just naturally evolve.’ While the distributed nature of California’s cannabis supply network obviously benefits mom-and-pop growers, it doesn’t encourage quality assurance. Consequently, Dave and his peers believe that some pot consumers are in danger. ‘It’s expensive to test every single thing that comes through the door — that’s the price you pay with a decentralized supply system,’ Dave said. ‘But that’s what you’ve got. You’ve got five pounds coming from here and two from there and one individual. I mean, a dog walks in the grow room, and wags its tail — anything can be coming off that dog’s tail. It’s gross. Fertilizers with E. coli. Compost teas that they don’t make right, anaerobic tea that has elevated levels of E. coli and salmonella…There’s no way that this is sustainable. All it takes is one story of immune-compromised people dying from aspergillus infection. The myth that cannabis hasn’t killed a single person in 3,000 years is allowed to go on. Well, it’s not cannabis that kills people, it’s all the shit that’s in it.’

[From "The Manhattan Project of Marijuana", David Downs, the East Bay Express, 3.4. 2009.])

(Steep Hill Lab says eighty-five percent of the medical marijuana samples it tests "show traces of mold".

—Peter Hecht, "Pot Lab Fills Need for Oversight", the Sacramento Bee, 4.6. 2010. The owners of Steep Hill Lab in Oakland California [which is NOT a federally-certified laboratory] are extremely in favor of medical marijuana…)

("We find e.coli in hash. We’re seeing pseudomonas aeruginosa, a bacteria that’s found in filth."

—Robert Martin, of the Association of California Cannabis Labs. Martin was quoted by David Downs in the East Bay Express, 4.11. 2012.)

("It’s a nasty little secret in the medical marijuana world that many growers spray their plants liberally with pesticides…"

—Robert Gammon, the East Bay Express, 7.28. 2010.)

(In places like Berkeley in 2018, where cannabis production is encouraged, much cannabis waste is generated. Some of the waste is toxic if consumed. Moldy marijuana, marijuana contaminated with chemicals, contaminated hashish, and contaminated cannabis concentrates do not seem to be rare. Some homeless people, alcohol addicts, and methamphetamine addicts find these sometimes poisonous contaminated cannabis products in garbage containers and sell them on the streets…)

("A 2015 study published in The Journal of Toxicological Sciences found that more than 80 percent of the concentrate samples were contaminated by residual solvents."

"In the same 2015 study, pesticides were detected in one-third of the concentrate samples."

—Kathleen Richards, The East Bay Express, 3.21. 2018, in an article about vaping cannabis.)

("…the true danger in untested cannabis comes from the potential pathogens–pseudomonas, aspergillis, and E. coli are routinely found by our laboratory [CW Analytical]."

("…Anresco Laboratories conducted tests on all of the cannabis featured at the HempCon Festival held in San Francisco in August 2017. The San Francisco-based laboratory discovered that 80 percent of the cannabis at the festival was contaminated with unhealthy levels of solvents, pesticides, molds, fungus, or various bacteria."

(Over the decades, I have seen MANY careless and ignorant people with hands contaminated by perfume, cologne, cosmetics, grease, oils [and a number of other toxic substances] use their fingers to prepare marijuana for smoking.

[Willie Nelson was arrested in Texas for possessing marijuana on November 26, 2010. Following his arrest, Nelson founded the Teapot Party.] The quote is from an article by Eric Spitznagel, Bloomberg Businessweek, that was published in the San Francisco Chronicle, 11.20. 2011)

— the Sacramento Bee, 5.8. 2010.)

(The Berkeley Patients Group is "a dispensary with about 10,000 patients in the Bay Area". In 2007 the DEA "pounced on a Southern California offshoot of the Berkeley nonprofit for distributing a federally controlled substance. Agents seized nearly everything on-site as well as $100,000 in funds in a bank account."

"The Berkeley dispensary actually got the money back after the City of Berkeley stood up for it. The city stated in a 2008 resolution ‘seizures of assets of medical marijuana dispensaries and collectives have blocked payments of taxes to the state of California and the City of Berkeley.’ The city asked federal authorities to back off and they did."

—Bob Egelko, San Francisco Chronicle, 10.14. 2012. Seeking to prevent the forced closure of Harborside Health Center, a "medical marijuana" dispensary, the City of Oakland filed a lawsuit against the federal government.)

Years ago there was a legitimate drug testing laboratory in California where a user could anonymously have a sample of their "dope" tested. Unfortunately, at one point such drug-testing laboratories were declared illegal by federal law enforcement officials and were forced to cease operation. As far as I can tell, the public does not have legal access to any federally-certified illegal-drug testing laboratory.

—quote from a childproof bottle containing one gram of "King Louis OG" cannabis flowers that was sold for $15 in February 2018 by KindPeoples Collective in Soquel, California.)

Nearly half saw a notable reduction in the core symptoms of autism."])

("You’re real! You’re really real!"

—Floyd, age ten, who had never spoken before, after being given a series of large doses of LSD at Fairview Developmental Center in California in the early 1960s. The quote was reported by Connell Cowan, at the time a psych tech, who was one of the people who were giving large doses of LSD to children. Cowan was working with Gary Fisher, a psychologist who had first taken LSD in 1959.

("…good people don’t smoke marijuana."

—Jeff Sessions, in a Senate hearing in April 2016. Sessions is now Attorney General of the United States. He is the chief law enforcement officer and the chief lawyer of the U.S. government.

—Adam Tschorn, the Los Angeles Times, 9.3. 2009.)

("It was downtown San Jose and another police officer had made a stop on three kids who were touring San Jose on a Saturday night. You know, driving around in circles like American Graffiti. And the officer pulled three kids out of the car and he didn’t know but one kid panicked and tried to swallow a small bag of marijuana—and I pulled up just to watch and assist if needed and didn’t realize what was going on either. And this kid died in front of us choking on a bag of marijuana. He didn’t die because of marijuana, he died because he panicked over these stupid laws we have."

—former San Jose, California undercover narcotics detective Russ Jones, quoted by David Downs, the East Bay Express, 5.12. 2010. Russ Jones is a spokesman for the "Law Enforcement Against Prohibition" organization.)

("The general commanding Mexico’s drug enforcement unit–hailed by U.S. drugs czar McCaffrey as ‘an honest man and no-nonsense field commander’–was detained in 1997 for corruptly collaborating with Amado Carillo Fuentes."

—Kevin Williamson, in DRUGS AND THE PARTY LINE.)

(Because I am a disabled homeless senior citizen who has VERY little money, I cannot afford the fee that doctors charge to issue a recommendation that I be allowed to use "medical marijuana". I cannot afford the administrative fee charged for the issuance of a "medical marijuana" card. Even if I had the proper paperwork, I am too poor to be able to pay the high prices the local "medical marijuana" stores charge. I have never grown marijuana. Because I am homeless I have no place where I can grow marijuana.)

Keto Chimichurri Meatballs Recipe

Recipe by Jennafer Ashley from PaleoHacks

Most people enjoy meatballs in savory pastas and sandwiches, slathered in a rich sauce. While these scrumptious meaty morsels complement various dishes, meatballs can shine bright on their own, even with a dollop of simple sauce and few seasonings.

This recipe by Jennafer Ashley of PaleoHacks, created exclusively for Mercola.com readers, takes your favorite meatballs and gives them a ketogenic twist. Paired with a fresh chimichurri sauce, this is a dish that you and your loved ones will want to savor endlessly.

Ingredients:

For the meatballs

1 pound 93 percent lean ground grass fed beef 1/3 cup finely chopped organic cilantro 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon sea salt 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes

For the chimichurri sauce:

1/3 cup avocado oil (plus 2 tablespoons for frying meatballs) 1/2 cup chopped curly parsley 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/8 teaspoon sea salt 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Procedure:

For the meatballs:

1. Combine ingredients for meatballs in a medium mixing bowl and use your hands to thoroughly mix. Form into golf ball-sized meatballs. 2. Heat 2 tablespoons avocado oil in a 10-inch cast iron pan over medium heat for two minutes. Place five meatballs in pan at a time and cook for 15 minutes, rotating them every four minutes. Repeat with the remaining meatballs. 3. Serve the meatballs hot topped with chimichurri sauce.

For the chimichurri sauce:

1. While the meatballs cook, combine the ingredients for the chimichurri sauce in a food processor or blender. 2. Blend until thoroughly combined.

This recipe makes 5 servings (10 meatballs) Preparation time: 10 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Total time: 40 minutes

How Do These Meatballs Stand Out From the Rest?

You may have never thought about this, but do you know how meatballs came to be? The Atlantic notes that meatballs may have been derived from an ancient Persian dish called kofta, which is made with minced or ground beef, chicken, pork or lamb, and combined with rice, bulgur or mashed lentils. Most meatballs nowadays are usually a blend of lean ground beef, fattier ground pork or veal, moist breadcrumbs, herbs and even cheese, bound together by an egg.

While this meatball recipe may seem simple and different compared to typical variations, you'll be surprised at the bursts of flavor you get with each bite.

Only Select High-Quality Grass Fed Beef

High-quality grass fed beef is the only type of beef you should consider for this meatball recipe, and other beef dishes. Unlike meat that comes from concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), grass fed beef tends to have higher amounts of:

• Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA): Cows who eat grass instead of being fed grain have CLA levels that are two to three times higher, potentially helping optimize your cholesterol levels and reduce your heart disease risk. • Antioxidants like vitamins A and E, and the enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase: These may assist in fighting free radicals that can cause oxidation and spoilage.

Farmers that raise grass fed cows reduce their negative impacts on the environment too. Not only are the cows not given maintenance antibiotics, but they are allowed to roam in pasture, where they eat their natural diet and get ample amounts of sunlight, thereby potentially increasing the nutrients in their bodies.

On the other hand, CAFOs are considered one of the top polluters on the planet. CAFOs in the U.S. produce 500 million tons of manure yearly, three times the amount of sewage produced by humans.

When looking for high-quality grass fed beef, look for The American Grassfed Association's (AGA) logo, a trustworthy and much-needed set of standards and certification for American-grown grass fed meat and dairy. If you spot this logo, this means that animals were fed with a 100 percent forage diet during their lifetime, raised on pasture and not in CAFOs, and weren't administered hormones or antibiotics.

Fresh Herbs Make This Chimichurri Sauce Healthy and Delicious

Chimichurri sauce is made by combining fresh herbs, vinegar and olive oil, which are worked with a mortar and pestle to produce a thick and silky paste. Its origins can be traced to Argentina, where it's served alongside grilled steak or chicken, or used as a taco sauce or tofu or meat marinade. Most chimichurri recipes use parsley as its main ingredient, although other varieties can have cilantro, basil or mint.

Unlike traditional recipes, this chimichurri is made with avocado oil. Learning how to make this simple sauce can be advantageous. Not only does it provide additional flavor, but the herbs in it have immense health benefits too:

• Parsley: Its antioxidant content is unparalleled and remains to be one of the highest antioxidant counts among plants, with 100 grams of fresh and raw parsley containing an oxygen radical absorbance capacity of 74,349. Plus, you can find vitamins A, K and C, calcium, iron, flavonoids and other volatile oils that may help deliver health benefits such as:

o Acting as a diuretic o Helping build strong bones o Boosting immune system function o Reducing inflammation

A 2013 Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine article also highlighted parsley's usage in traditional and folk medicines. Researchers discovered that this herb helped address conditions like amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, gastrointestinal disorder, hypertension, cardiac disease, urinary disease, otitis, sniffle, diabetes and various dermal diseases.

• Cilantro: This herb contains vitamins A, C and K, B vitamins and minerals such as iron, calcium, manganese and magnesium. Cilantro also contains polyphenolic flavonoids such as quercetin, kaempferol, rhamnetin and apeginin that contribute to the herb's antioxidant properties, as well as antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and antianxiety effects. Some benefits cilantro can bring include:

o Serves as a potent chelator that eliminates heavy metals and toxins from the body o Decreases risk for stomach problems like nausea and vomiting o Addresses yeast infections, immune system weakness, migraines, colds, flu and sore throat o Helps lower total cholesterol, triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein levels (based on an animal study)

When buying herbs for your chimichurri, always remember to pick organically grown produce. This ensures that they weren't sprayed with any harmful pesticides or insecticides that may affect the quality of the herbs and decrease their nutritional value.

Era Slay-Z: Videoclipes

1991: Um compêndio de referências aos vídeos pop, R & B e dance da década de 1990; Leonardo twittou para os fãs que ela estava "canalizando Madonna, Crystal Waters e Aaliyah" no clipe. No entanto, as referências não são apenas uma estética da moda: há um grande significado envolvido nesse caso aparentemente bizarro.

Van Vogue: O video foi filmado por Hype Williams durante um show de Leonardo na boate Highline Ballroom. O clipe conta com diversas cenas, a primeira mostra Leonardo cantando, depois vemos uma parte do publico e em seguida vermos diversos cortes mostrando personalidades influentes que estavam presentes na festa, como por exemplo. Oprah Winfrey, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Anna Wintour, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, RuPaul, Todrick Hall, Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar, P.Diddy, Tyga, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, Justin Bieber, Mertalas, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Gigi Hadid, The Weeknd, Rick Ross. O clipe termina com Leonardo indo em direção ao seu camarim na boate e fechando a porta na cara do camera.

Liquorice :O videoclipe de "Liquorice" foi lançado em 14 de junho de 2012. [12] O vídeo foi dirigido por Rankin e estilizado por Nicola Formichetti. O clipe mostra Leonardo como uma vaqueiro cavalgando pelo deserto a cavalo. Becky Bain, da Idolator, escreveu: "Leonardoostenta chifres de touro, empunha um taco de beisebol, lambe um picolé sedutoramente e toma um gole de cachorro-quente." Robin Murray da Clash considerou o vídeo da música como "generoso".

Riot: O vídeo começa mostrando todos os homens refugiados do sul da Ásia enquanto eles atravessam o deserto e escalam cercas de arame que replicam a cerca de fronteira de Melilla, com Leonardo executando a música na frente das cenas. Os homens, em seguida, soletram a palavra 'vida' com seus corpos do outro lado da cerca. Nas cenas subseqüentes, os refugiados são vistos formando um barco com uma pirâmide no meio e se aglomeram em pequenos barcos, acompanhados pelo cantor. As cenas finais representam Leonardo e alguns dos homens sentados nas rochas junto ao mar, envoltos em cobertores dourados de Mylar. O vídeo termina com os refugiados entrando no mar.

Skylar Diggins: O clipe foi filmado e dirigido por Hype Williams. O clipe começa com as luzes de uma quadra de basquete se acendendo e em seguida vemos a atleta Skylar Diggins entrando sozinha na quadra e jogando basquete como se houvessem adversárias, mas na verdade ela está sozinha. O video corta então para cenas de Leonardo no vestiario de um estadio. O cantor dança entre os bancos, abre os armários, toma banho no chuveiro. O clipe termina com a atleta acertando a cesta e marcando ponto.

Big Talk: No vídeo, um sinal aparece com o logotipo do título da música. A cena então muda uma espaçonave viajando pela Terra antes que a câmera se aproxime. Então, as luzes se acenderam e revelaram Leonardo e Rick Rossdentro de um pequeno buraco. De repente, a espaçonave se afasta através da parte externa da galáxia, fazendo-os gritar. No primeiro verso, Rick é visto na sala onde ele está flutuando na gravidade. Então, Rick é mostrado em uma sala com milhares de guitarras onde ele quebra uma enquanto Leonardo canta o próximo verso. Então, ele mostra Rickdançando na parede enquanto Leonardo olha para ela antes de jogar um jogo de tag. Então, ele mostra Michael e Leonardoem uma sala onde eles estão usando um controle remoto, alterando fotos de Gregory Peck, pintura de arte, estátuas, etc. Em seguida, ele mostra Rick e Leonardo na sala de mídia onde estão jogando videogame. que Rick vence. Então, Leonardo usa um biquíni minúsculo em algumas cenas enquanto está no centro da nave, agarra seus seios, dá um dedo médio à câmera e simula a micção masculina, onde Rick é mostrado fazendo algum tipo de observação. (Nos desfiles, há uma fotografia ainda colorida de Rick dando também um dedo médio à câmera.) Enquanto isso, Rick é visto em uma sala branca enquanto veste uma túnica preta onde ele está meditando antes de gritar, o que quebra o vidro acima dele. . Então, Leonardo e Rick executam um colapso de dança. Então, ele volta para a sala de mídia onde Leonardo está dançando com Rick sendo visto na tela da televisão enquanto Leonardo faz a mesma coisa com Rick. Então, Rick é visto jogando um jogo de tênis onde ele está usando um orbe robótico para quebrar potes. O vídeo tem influências do anime sci-fi japonês - vários clipes da série de anime Zillion, filme de Vampire Hunter D de 1985, e o filme Akira pode ser visto nas telas de fundo.

Can’t Do It Like Me: O vídeo é ambientado em uma área "arenosa" de Miami e apresenta aparições de personagens que carregam armas e pedestres. O vídeo passa a apresentar strippers tatuados em câmera lenta com pouca iluminação de velas acesas. Enquanto isso, Leonardo interpreta a ação anti-herói, fumando e olhando para longe do pátio de seu luxuoso bloco, em um encobrimento absoluto. Mais tarde, ela lentamente faz o seu caminho através do clube de strip-tease sujo com uma pistola, fixando suas vistas em um cara infeliz, tatuado e tatuado - e o mata.

The Big Big Beat: O clipe foi filmado no Brooklyn e dirigido pelo Director X. O clipe começa mostrando algumas ruas do Brooklyn e em seguida vemos Leonardo sendo no foco enquanto a música começa e crianças negras jogando basquete. Em seguida, vemos Leonardo dançando por uma rua vazia, com casa dos dois lados. Na terceira cena, vemos Leonardo em cima de um carro de policia na frente do banco central de Nova York e na ultima cena vemos Leonardo caminhando por um corredor de tijolos brancos e dançando freneticamente até o final da música.

Used To Being Alone: O clipe foi filmado pelo cineasta Terrence Malick e o roteiro foi escrito por Leonardo. Tem como locação o deserto Painted Desert, no Arizona, Estados Unidos. O Clipe começa com diversos takes mostrando as paisagens do deserto e em uma filmagem área, vamos acompanhando as dunas até que a camera chega no chão e vemos Leonardo caminhando com uma roupa dourada e coturnos. A música começa e o cantor começa a cantar. Na hora do refrão, Leonardo está na frente de umas esculturas e dançando freneticamente. O clipe alterna entre cenas de Leonardo dançando e do deserto até o final da música.

Queen of The Clubs: Mais uma parceria entre Leonardo e Hype Williams. O clipe mostra Naomi Campbell realizando strip tease em um clube noturno. O clipe começa com a modelo chegando perto do mastro e em seguida realizando algumas acrobacias durante toda a música. Há também um show de luzes e efeitos de edição durante todo o clipe e a roupa utilizada por Naomi foi desenhada exclusivamente para o clipe por Donatella Versace.

Crown: Clipe dirigido e filmado por Anthony Mandler. O clipe foi filmado na cidade de Trindad em Cuba e mostra a modelo Shudu Gram como protagonista. O vídeo começa quando o protagonista (Shudu) atira e mata um homem enquanto ele caminha por uma estação de trem movimentada. Ela foge antes de um flashback para o dia anterior, quando ela anda de bicicleta, encontra amigos e está sozinha em um quarto ao anoitecer. Em uma boate, o protagonista dança e flerta com outro frequentador do clube, que então a ataca quando ela deixa o clube. Desgrenhada, a mulher chora na rua depois de um ataque sexual implícito, e o vídeo termina quando ela corre para casa para pegar uma arma escondida em uma gaveta da cômoda.

Along The Coast: O clipe foi filmado e dirigido por Anthony Mandler em Miami. O clipe mostra Leonardo caminhando com uma roupa branca e descalço durante o por do sol pela praia. Ao escurecer, podemos ver o cantor dançando e brincando com fogos de artificio na praia até o final do dia.
