The UN Thing
by Princess Daisy Boo ini would like to pick the brains of those in the know..... so i am kinda preparing for the big conversation with my mom, but i am not being brave about it - i have unplugged my phone, just in case she tries to call me tonight.
what i am looking for is a bit of advice on the un thing... i have read the un letter, and i have found the jw spin in response.
what would be a suitable rebuttal for their spin on why they were members?

Babies get shunned
by Crooked Lumpy Vessel inmy sister was recently disfellowshipped and she told me that she was eating in a restaurant yesterday when the elder that disfellowshipped her was seated at the table next to her.
of course they would not breathe a word to her.
but her son (4 years old) had kept saying hello over and over to the elder and his wife and they both refused to acknowledge him, smile of even say hello back.

Infected tooth
by greendawn inlast night i experienced an ever increasing sensitivity and pain in a tooth and eventually even touching it with my tongue felt painful.
the gum next to it was also beginning to feel numb and swollen so i realised it must be some sort of infection in the root of the tooth.
it was vital to act fast because this kind of infection can spread fast and cause great pain and perhaps a loss of the tooth so first thing in the morning i went to the dentist, he decided it was a root infection and told me to try antibiotics and if they don't work he would do a root treatment.

Do you have a favourite product you use?
by Bumble Bee ini have a couple of favourites i'll share with you.. first is pure coconut oil for my hands.
at room temperature it is a solid, so i have to immerse the pump container in a mug of hot water for about 5 minutes before i use it.
it's wonderfully warm when i massage it into my hands, and leaves them silky soft!

Assembly Hall shakedown - Columbia SC
by sir82 infrom someone who attended:.
there was a big elders meeting in columbia sc on saturday june 9.. around 240 congregations, 2000+ elders.. the society wants to build a brand new assembly hall in columbia, sc, to handle the huge influx of jws moving to the us southeast from up north.. they expect to have it done in 34 months (finished by april 2010).
total cost estimated to be approximately $8 - 9 million.. they want to have the whole thing paid for by the time the building is done - no long term loans.. they "strongly suggested" that each of the 240 congregations commit to supporting "their share" of the expense.
