the us elections suck up all the attention (and it's not even at the candidate selection stage!
) but canada actually has a national election today.. first results are starting to come in and so far it's all liberal party.. i think it's time harper and the conservatives got the boot.
last premiere from the bush era.
Be "worried" about your money I guess if you have to
Wow, is the person who said this independently wealthy? As one gets closer and closer to retirement, one tends to worry about their money more and more. It isn't an infinitely deep well.
Also, Trudeau has said he is pulling our troops out of Syria. I don't think this is a good idea either.
researchers have found evidence of ancient microorganisms that lived in what is now western australia at least 4.1 billion years ago.
if confirmed, the discovery suggests that life originated on earth 300 million years earlier than previously thought.
.... the ancient microorganisms in question were found trapped inside zircons formed from magma in western australia.
Well, I love cofty's (and others) Science threads. This forum
has educated me on many things and I hope it continues. I get a lot of
my news here before I get it from anywhere else.
jehovahs people do not beg for money.
[...] we have never considered it proper to solicit money for the lords cause, after the common custom .
it is our judgment that money raised by the various begging devices in the name of our lord is offensive, unacceptable to him, and does not bring his blessing either upon the givers or the work accomplished.
The cartoon video of Sophia deciding to give the Borg her ice cream money is particularly lowbrow.

i myself am in full fade mode with an overly active jw wife, who refuses to discuss any point whatsoever.
a friend who is not a jw nor has ever been a jw; he studied for a few months, then realized what an evil cult it is and stopped.

so it's been a few months since i last went to a meeting but i've still had lots of guilty feelings about leaving, such as am i doing the right thing, thinking about friends and family, where do i go from here etc etc.
but i think once you stop believing you can't go back.. anyway, today i had a very nice experience.
my daughter had been to nursery today and when she got home i asked her what she had done and she excitedly told me they had been doing pumpkins.
I have come to realize that Pagans indeed have a lot of fun. I love pumpkins... especially the pie with whipped cream versions!
A little pumpkin ambiance:

I remember seeing an article about amino acids being found in meteorites. Here are a couple I just dug up quickly. Anyone have any updates to these?

Yes. There are at least 12 other planets we know of currently besides Earth in the 'habitable zone' of stars. Nasa's Kepler mission discovered these: http://www.nasa.gov/ames/kepler/a-keplers-dozen-small-habitable-zone-planets
which parts of the publications are the innacurate words of 'just imperfect men', and which parts are the inerrant words from the mouthpiece of jehovah on earth?.
how can you trust that you are being given correct information?

Finkelstein, thank you for that list. I'm-a copying it now. Might come in handy.
most everyone was very nice.
i did get a couple of we miss you soooo much and an elder that said he might drop by someday to say hello when he gets a chance....i'm already prepared for him if he should show up.. over all, it got finished and i'm going to bed..
I am glad you were able to get through it and that everyone was nice. There are always those who feel the need to witness. Sheesh.
At my Mom's memorial, I put together some picture boards of her over the years. Everyone loved them! Yes, I was surreptitiously trying to nullify the crap talk about the Borg as much as I could by having a lovely visual presentation of my wonderful Mom. Many who were there (from the Borg) didn't really know her because my Dad had moved away from their congregation to another area. But some family were able to make it and that was nice.
