Seraph a song...
For the fervent dragons back writhes across the continents;
Serpentines of rain bowed or black and white abundance.
A seraph's soliloquy of silence left to destroy the shadows;
Enlightening us with its symbols of an upward, in extinguish.
With the consequence of chaos comes an order unabated.
The zymology of sin is left now to singe the tongues of shame
For the dragons, demons and shadowed spirits seek surrender
As they always see their fires only ever burning towards the skies..
Isaiah 27
27:1 In that day the LORD with his
sore and great and strong sword
shall punish leviathan the piercing
serpent, even leviathan that crooked
serpent; and he shall slay the dragon
that is in the sea.
27:2 In that day sing ye unto her,
A vineyard of red wine.

Sarkozy lauds Islam at Louvre ceremony with Saudi prince
PARIS (AFP) — French President Nicolas Sarkozy praised Islam on Wednesday at a ceremony with
Saudi Prince Al Walid bin Talal to lay the first stone for a new Islamic art section of the
Louvre museum.
"This will be an opportunity for the French and all visitors to the Louvre to see that Islam is
progress, science, finesse, modernity, and that fanaticism in the name of Islam is a corruption
of Islam," Sarkozy said at the ceremony.
The new exhibition space is due to open in 2010 after the 86-million-euro (136-million-dollar)
renovation project is completed at the Louvre, which draws more than seven million visitors per
year.
The Saudi prince, one of the world's richest men, is contributing 17 million euros, while oil
giant Total and Lafarge will put up 8.5 million euros each, with the remainder to be covered by
the government.
The new display will open in the Louvre's Cour Visconti, moving closer to the museum's rooms
devoted to art and artefacts from the late Antiquity and the Mediterranean region.
Sarkozy also underscored the importance of the new Mediterranean union launched by more than 40
leaders including Arab heads of state at a Paris summit on Sunday to foster cooperation.

Hey buddy, can you spare a movie ticket?
By Julie Poppen, Rocky Mountain News

Hundreds of Denver's homeless could be cooling their heels in a movie
theater or museum while the Democratic National Convention is in town
next month.
The Colorado Coalition for the Homeless plans to get 500 movie tickets
as well as passes to the Denver Zoo, Denver Museum of Nature and
Science and other cultural facilities for the people it helps.
Bus tickets will be provided for events beyond walking distance, said
John Parvensky, the non-profit's president.
Many day shelters will have expanded hours during the convention, and
big screen TVs are being donated to some shelters so patrons can watch
convention goings-on without being caught up in the mayhem.
"We're trying to let folks know what activities are planned, and what
other places they'll be able to go without being harassed," Parvensky
said.

Urge Obama to convert to Islam and educate Americans that what they have been told about
Islam are lies propagated by anti Muslim bigots.
Obama's spokesman called the cartoon
"tasteless and offensive" [AFP]
Barack Obama, the Democratic presidential candidate, has spoken out about the satirical
depiction of him and his wife on a magazine cover, calling it an insult to Muslims.
Speaking on Tuesday night on the CNN's Larry King show, Obama said the cartoon, which depicts
him and his wife as flag-burning "radicals", did not bother him.
"You know, there are wonderful Muslim Americans all across the country who are doing wonderful
things and for this to be used as sort of an insult, or to raise suspicions about me, I think
is unfortunate," he said.
Obama blamed himself for not being forceful enough in challenging some of the misconceptions
about him, including the false belief held by some Americans that he is a Muslim.
"I do think that, you know, in attempting to satirise something, they probably fuelled some
misconceptions about me instead," he said.
"But, you know, that was their editorial judgment. And as I said, ultimately, it's a cartoon,
it's not what the American people are spending a lot of their time thinking about."
