One of the really interesting blog posts Marvin made was about an altered blood card that was issued in 2000(?) that allowed for autologous blood transfusion. But the policy was reversed within months and the cards destroyed. A really important story I thought, with pictures and letters and everything.

Here's a view on homosexuality for you...
by konceptual99 in...right from a pro-jw site in response to a post about the relative seriousness of homosexuality.
all you can do is reason from the scriptures, which you appear to have done.
homosexuality is as serious as bestiality, or adultery and fornication.

A homosexual worked in a store that helped my wife test and purchase some products. The honest truth, he was one of the nicest people I met. We talked and I was fine with that. Again, treating him well, does not endorse the behavior. I don't have to make it my focus. It is not my concern.
The idea that what others do in private requires or is any way interested in your "endorsement" is not only bizarre. It's actually what I would call perverted or abhorrent.

Ha! Hope it doesn't come to that. Just because England voted crazy doesn't mean the US needs to raise the stakes.
But George W as president in the 1990s will come as a surprise among others to Bill Clinton.
Incidentally Boris Johnson was born in the United States so may be elgble for the US presidency too.

Far out idea, but a person to ask might be Firpo Carr, who among other things wrote this pretty strange book.

What an interesting idea. But a difficult ask I'd imagine.
I think there was a brief mention of the different ethnic editions of the magazines in the video about Gilead called something like "To the ends of the earth". Maybe something in the Proclaimers book too or some magazine articles. But actually getting a hold of back issues of these different ethic editions. Good luck!

This is bad news. There was some excellent information on that blog I always meant to make a copy. Plus I hope he is doing well.
Maybe Cedars would know. They had some contact with each other I remember.

No! No! No! This can't be true? brexit? No!
by purrpurr init seems britain has voted to leave the eu in a move of total madness!
the markets are already in free fall and the moronic bigots who campaigned for this are celebrating the demise of our country .. i can't see how a 49-51% split can be democratic?
there is still the postal vote to come in, maybe there's hope in that?

Don't know which paper from the cropped scan but from the typeface it appears to be the Daily Mail or the Express. Enough said.

In 1963 the US statesman Dean Acheson made the observation that "Great Britain has lost an Empire and has not yet found a role". This is still the position to some extent more than 50 years later. For some time the Westminster elite decided it had found its role as supporters of US militarism around the world. But many in the UK have not been happy with playing this role, especially in Scotland. Many in Scotland now want to be a normal self-governing country within the EU. A smaller rUK may also be better able to adjust to being a significant small country, and realise it's a better option than being an increasingly insignificant big country. In time all the nations of the British Isles may be self-governing partners within larger networks such as Europe.

There are staunch unionists like Alex Massie who are now talking about supporting indepdendence..
David Torrance says all his friends (many Scottish Tories) are switching sides.
I've got two loudmouth Facebook unionist friends who have now switched sides.
There are rumours of a brand new poll putting support for indepdendence at 59% with only 32% against.
If these are any indication things could happen pretty fast. Maybe months rather than years.
