BOB MARLEY: HIGH TIDE OR LOW TIDE On 7/23, we took some time out to commemorate the birth date of HIM Haile Selassie; a noble man, a peaceful man, and a mystical man, for whom too many of his visions for the advancement and betterment of the peoples of the Continent of Africa were severely impeded, thwarted and defeated, and are still to this very day yearning woefully and hauntingly to be fulfilled
7/23 also holds great historical significance as being the date of the heliacal rising of Sirius; the time of the flooding of the Nile.
The horrendous calamity compounded by the severe drought now occurring in the Horn of Africa, the region encompassing the countries of Eritrea, Djibouti, Ethiopia and Somalia, formerly known as the Kingdom of Aksum, the Land of Punt or Land of God, is catastrophic and is being described as "a vision of hell."
As we at this time remember this great man, and this great land, our brothers and sisters, our sons and daughters, are dying by the thousands each day. They desperately and direly need our help. We have to, without hesitation, rise brightly like Sirius and reach out to them powerfully with Love overflowing like the waters of the Nile.
Here is Bob Marley & The Wailers' High Tide Or Low Tide, the Save The Children's East Africa Appeal: [Edited 8/10/11 4:49am] | |

1 Now the queen of She´ba was hearing the report about Sol´o·mon in connection with the name of Jehovah. So she came to test him with perplexing questions. 2Finally she arrived at Jerusalem with a very impressive train, camels carrying balsam oil and very much gold and precious stones; and she came on in to Sol´o·mon and began to speak to him all that happened to be close to her heart. 3 Sol´o·mon, in turn, went on to tell her all her matters. There proved to be no matter hidden from the king that he did not tell her. 4 When the queen of She´ba got to see all the wisdom of Sol´o·mon and the house that he had built, 5 and the food of his table and the sitting of his servants and the table service of his waiters and their attire and his drinks and his burnt sacrifices that he regularly offered up at the house of Jehovah, then there proved to be no more spirit in her. 6 So she said to the king: “True has the word proved to be that I heard in my own land about your matters and about your wisdom. 7 And I did not put faith in the words until I had come that my own eyes might see; and, look! I had not been told the half. You have surpassed in wisdom and prosperity the things heard to which I listened. 8 Happy are your men; happy are these servants of yours who are standing before you constantly, listening to your wisdom! 9 May Jehovah your God come to be blessed, who has taken delight in you by putting you upon the throne of Israel; because Jehovah loves Israel to time indefinite, so that he appointed you as king to render judicial decision and righteousness.” 10 Then she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold and a very great deal of balsam oil and precious stones. There never came anymore the like of that balsam oil for quantity such as the queen of She´ba gave to King Sol´o·mon. 11 And Hi´ram’s fleet of ships that carried gold from O´phir also brought from O´phir timbers of algum trees in very great amount and precious stones. 12 And the king proceeded to make out of the timbers of the algum trees supports for the house of Jehovah and for the house of the king, and also harps and stringed instruments for the singers. Timbers of algum trees like this have not come in nor have they been seen down to this day. 13 And King Sol´o·mon himself gave the queen of She´ba all her delight for which she asked, apart from what he gave her according to the openhandedness of King Sol´o·mon. After that she turned about and went to her own land, she together with her servants. 14 And the weight of the gold that came to Sol´o·mon in one year amounted up to six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold, 15 apart from the men of travel and the profit from the traders and all the kings of the Arabs and the governors of the land.

Wealth does not make better leaders. Democrazy merely reflects the limitations of the people. Every 6th second someone dies from hunger 9 millions dies from hunger every year Chronic hunger is increased by 60 millions within the last few years
