"Precious" star Gabby Sidibe had one thing on her mind on the red carpet -- the "money shot."
Gabby has such a beautiful personality! I hope she wins!!
Oh my God- I think I just vomited in my mouth.
She's a sweet kid and what you write says more about you than you know.
Wow, this fatso HAS to be a cannibal's wet dream!
Someone needs to get this heifer to a gym before she comes down with diabetes. Movie star or not, fat is NOT beautiful.
The world would be a better place if people would treat others as they would like to be treated. Good luck Gabby. You are a brave person, despite what these insensetive people write
Gabby is a sweet, down-to-earth girl and, while I agree she should have worn someting with sleeves, you racist namecallers are the true pigs.
Your hateful comments say more about your dark ugly soul than they do about this talented young actress.
You haters are a bunch of losers! Criticizing Gabby,a beautiful person inside and out who has more to offer than any of you that probably spend your days collecting the carts at Walmart. And especially to those of you criticizing her appearance, I have one name for you idiots Halle Berry. She's considered one of the most beautiful in Hwood and yet not one of the men she's been with has remained faithful to her! Says a lot doesn't it.
I am appalled at the ignorance and distaste many of you are showing here. Gabby was and excellent actress and portrayed this woman in such a way as to shed a light on a very serious subject. Good luck Gabby in all you do. God bless
Oh, leave her alone. She's cool. I like Gabby and she has more talent than a lot of those bimbos.
She looks good.
I would choose her any day over the rest of the skinny dumbass hollywood bimbos!
I hope everyone who posted such nasty disgraceful comments about Gabby has a life experience that makes them become morbidly obese so you can experience the wrath that spews so freely from your ignorant mouths. F'ing sociopaths.
Gross. Does she even realize what she is saying? She is desperate for attention.
Her dress was designed and manufactured by Mack Trucks.

Issue 5 is out already?
Guess I'm a little behind. I remember this was supposed to be a big deal. Seems weird how it's taking place pre-Secret Invasion.
The second act of the hit maxi-series begins as our three teams -- the Avengers vs. the Avengers vs the Invaders — face off in an all-out battle aboard the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier! While battle rages, Dr. Strange attempts to solve the mystery of what ripped the greatest Heroes Of World War II to the present day, and how to put them back. Will the combined might of three super-teams be enough to stop the cross-time devastation? Match all of this with the return of one of the Avengers deadliest villains -- one with a particular interest in the Original Human Torch -- and you know, from what you've seen so far, the return of Captain America is only the tip of the iceberg!

Hello Hello Hello Starbucks fans. I actually work at Starbucks (in Target) and the pastries are rotated out. It really is luck of the draw. Sometimes we pull out Lemon pound cake. Sometimes we don't it's basically up to the barista what goes out and what doesn't. I hope that helps.
I also know that some stores (like airport Starbucks and Target Starbucks) don't necessarily have all the same items the stand alone stores have. They might not participate in certian promotions as well (like the duetto card discounts).

Jet Aviation adds maintenance in Moscow
Gulfstream Aerospace has added the Jet Aviation maintenance center at Moscow Vnukovo as a Gulfstream authorized warranty line service facility for the full line of Gulfstreams. The airframer has also announced the appointment of a new field service representative in Moscow who will provide immediate customer support and service to in-country and in-transit Gulfstreams.
Bombardier Aerospace has also approved the Jet Aviation facility as its first line maintenance facility in Russia. The company will offer around-the-clock AOG service for Challengers and Globals.
Jet Aviation says it is the first global independent business aviation services company to operate in Russia. Vnukovo International Airport is located about 17 miles from the city center and is Moscow's busiest airport for corporate aviation, handling nearly 70 percent of all business aviation traffic in Russia. Last year Vnukovo reported a 50-percent increase in corporate and private aircraft traffic over the previous year.

"Music is by far my biggest passion because I got to do music on my own. My dad who I'm very thankful got me into this business when I was really young, so it wasn't my idea to put me in this business. I love it, but, music is definitely my own thing and I'm just so proud of where I took my band. We did everything and light years beyond what I thought we would do with a band."
Yeah we went to Hawaii for 12 days and we'd never been there before. I had the ring on me; I didn't know if I was going to do it, I didn't have a plan or anything. It was the first night there, we were just hanging out before dinner talking for like an hour. Just like, she's my best friend. And I had it hidden in this drawer and I pulled it out one time and I was so damn nervous I couldn't even smell anything. And I just asked her and it was the coolest thing in the world. Her reactions was the sweetest; I can't even explain it. It was the best thing in the world.
Tyler names his dad, John, as his biggest inspiration for getting into acting. "My dad's been an actor and writer since before I was born, so he got me into acting when I was super young."

There was talk about him doing this after the first season so we were kind of used to it, but then it actually happened. It definitely sucks, it's definitely weird. It's gonna be weird to film it without him, but we have a good group of people on our show and we'll survive.
Some of these people write their own scenarios and stories of how these people get together and some of them are pretty graphic and there's some really graphic and naughty stuff about these characters.

Defense Acquisitions:
Strong Leadership Is Key to Planning and Executing Stable Weapon Programs
GAO-10-522: Published: May 6, 2010. Publicly Released: May 6, 2010.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(937) 258-7915
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
For several decades, Congress and the Department of Defense (DOD) have explored ways to improve the acquisition of major weapon systems, yet program outcomes and their underlying causes have proven resistant to change. Last year, we reported that the cumulative cost growth in DOD's portfolio of major programs was $296 billion. The opportunity to achieve meaningful improvements may now be at hand with the recent introduction of major reforms to the acquisition process. In response to a mandate from this Committee, GAO has issued several reports about DOD's budget and requirements processes to support weapon program stability. This follow-on report focuses on (1) identifying weapon programs that are achieving good outcomes, (2) the factors that enable some programs to succeed, and (3) lessons to be learned from these programs to guide implementation of recent reforms. GAO analyzed DOD's portfolio of major defense programs and conducted case study reviews of five programs.
While GAO's work has revealed significant aggregate cost and schedule growth in DOD's portfolio of major defense acquisition programs, individual programs within the portfolio vary greatly in terms of cost growth and schedule delays. Our analysis of individual program performance found that 21 percent of programs in DOD's 2008 major defense acquisition portfolio appeared to be stable and on track with original cost and schedule goals. These programs tended to represent relatively smaller investments, with just under 9 percent of total dollars invested in these programs. Programs that appeared to be on track were markedly newer and had development cycles that were shorter than highly unstable programs. The stable programs we studied were supported by senior leadership, run by disciplined program managers, and had solid business cases that were well-executed. These programs benefited from strong leadership support, in some cases because the programs were perceived as having an immediate need and, therefore, were viewed as a higher priority by senior leaders. Their program managers tended to share key attributes such as experience, leadership continuity, and communication skills that facilitated open and honest decision making. As a result, these programs established sound, knowledge-based business plans before starting development and then executed those plans using disciplined approaches. They pursued evolutionary or incremental acquisition strategies, leveraged mature technologies, and established realistic cost and schedule estimates that accounted for risk. They were able to invest in early planning and systems engineering, and made trade-offs to close gaps between customer needs and available resources to arrive at a set of requirements that could be developed within cost and schedule targets. After approval, the programs resisted new requirements and maintained stable funding. These practices are in contrast to prevailing pressures to force programs to compete for funds by exaggerating achievable capabilities, underestimating costs, and assuming optimistic delivery dates. Congress and DOD have taken major steps toward reforming the defense acquisition system that may increase the likelihood weapon programs succeed in meeting their planned cost and schedule objectives. Many of these steps are consistent with key elements in our case study analysis. In particular, the new DOD policy and legislative provisions place greater emphasis on front-end planning and establishing sound business cases for starting programs. For example, the provisions strengthen systems engineering and cost estimating, and require early milestone reviews, prototyping, and preliminary designs. They are intended to enable programs to refine a weapon system concept and make cost, schedule, and performance trade-offs before significant commitments are made. Fundamentally, the provisions should help programs replace risk with knowledge, and set up more executable programs. If reform is to succeed, however, programs that present realistic strategiesand resource estimates must succeed in winning approval and funding.

Why We Need Smart Government for a Strong Economy

"I wrote this book because I love my country and I'm concerned about our future," writes Bill Clinton. "As I often said when I first ran for President in 1992, America at its core is an idea--the idea that no matter who you are or where you're from, if you work hard and play by the rules, you'll have the freedom and opportunity to pursue your own dreams and leave your kids a country where they can chase theirs."
In Back to Work, Clinton details how we can get out of the current economic crisis and lay a foundation for long-term prosperity. He offers specific recommendations on how we can put people back to work and create new businesses, increase bank lending and corporate investment, double our exports, and restore our manufacturing base. He supports President Obama's emphasis on green technology, saying that change in the way we produce and consume energy is the strategy most likely to spark a fast-growing economy and enhance our national security.
Clinton also says that we need both a strong economy and a smart government working together to restore prosperity and progress. He demonstrates that whenever we've given in to the temptation to blame government for our problems, we've lost our commitment to shared prosperity, balanced growth, financial responsibility, and investment in the future. That has led our nation into trouble because there are some things we have to do together. For example, he says, "Our ability to compete in the twenty-first century is dependent on our willingness to invest in infrastructure: we need faster broadband, a state-of-the-art national electrical grid, modernized water and sewer systems, and the best airports, trains, roads, and bridges.
"There is no evidence that we can succeed in the twenty-first century with an antigovernment strategy," writes Clinton, "with a philosophy grounded in 'You're on your own' rather than 'We're all in this together.'" Clinton believes that conflict between government and the private sector has proved to be remarkably good politics, but it has produced bad policies, giving us a weak economy with few jobs, growing income inequality and poverty, and a decline in our competitive position. In the real world, cooperation works much better than conflict, and "we need victories in the real world."
From the Hardcover edition.
- This short book reminds us that the former president is still a master of packaging a political message that is cogent, expansive, and forceful. He's essentially taken the responsibility for publicizing President Obama's agenda in a way that is understandable and ready-made for public consumption. Clinton is a great communicator and seemingly always will be. He is also the narrator of this book, and on that account he is good but not great. His once clear, commanding voice is a bit scratchy around the edges, and there are times when he stretches his sentences out for too long, losing his breath and concentration in the process. Even a good Bill Clinton is better than many trained narrators, though, and the book is worthwhile for its ideas as well as his performance. R.I.G. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
Daniel Gross, The Washington Post
"A reality-based strategy for economic renewal packed with ideas on how to fix America's job machine . . . Offers some well-timed optimism . . . Contains sensible ideas . . . Articulate, engaging."
- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "A lucid one-man rebuttal of the Tea Party's anti-government agenda and a practical set of proposals . . . for restoring economic growth. A succinct common-sense argument for why America needs a strong national government, why both spending cuts and increased tax revenues are necessary for addressing the debt problem (which is going to get worse given the demographics of an aging baby-boomer population and the high costs of interest payments), and why that debt problem 'can't be solved unless the economy starts growing again.'"
- James Pressley, Bloomberg News "This book presents page after page of intelligent suggestions on how the U.S. can cut its crippling debt, create new jobs, and get 'back into the future business' . . . I found much to agree with."
Carolyn Kellogg, Los Angeles Times
"A personal, plain-spoken economic picture of where we are, a mile-high view of the three decades that got us here, and how to revive our economy in classic 'American Dream growth' style. . . . If this list whiplashes from the nitty-gritty to the mile-high view and back again, it demonstrates that Clinton is a politician who can operate at both levels without breaking a sweat. . . . A book with the chutzpah that the Democrats have been missing."
Susan Page, USA Today
"Four stars . . . There's an upbeat, front-foot tone to Back to Work that is welcome at a time of despair. Love him or hate him, [Clinton] hasn't lost his touch . . . It's refreshing to hear from him." --Martin Vander Weyer, The Telegraph (U.K.)
"Convincing . . . A rallying cry to America . . . Informed, high-minded, intelligent and persuasive... Clinton is probably the best natural politician of his generation. His skill at framing an argument is without peer and that he generally does so without demagoguery is to his lasting credit. In this case, the fact that he has simple common sense on his side doesn't hurt either. These pages should be required reading for any Democrat running for office next year." --Erik Tarloff, The Observer (U.K.)
"Bill Clinton has an idea. A few dozen ideas, in fact, about ways large and small to get unemployed Americans back to work--from granting property tax breaks for investments that create jobs to painting every flat tar roof in U.S. cities white for the energy savings."
The Economist
"A book full of ideas about how to revive the economy and get America's unemployed millions back to work . . . The book has two main strengths. First, while arguing, rightly, that in the short run the American economy urgently needs a boost from government spending, it spells out in simple terms why Uncle Sam also needs a credible strategy for sorting out the country's long-term fiscal problems . . . Second, Mr. Clinton is at his famously wonkish best in scouring America and the world to find practical ideas for getting people back to work."
Publishers' Weekly
"Feisty . . . a cogent, well-informed attack on the GOP's 'antigovernment ideology.' A smart, forthright, appealingly folksy defense of activist government."

Sony Says PSP2 Is as Powerful as PS3, Coming Q4 2011
The PlayStation 3 is a pretty impressive piece of gaming hardware, and Sony is reportedly telling developers that the upcoming PlayStation Portable 2 will be as powerful as its workhorse console.
The report comes from sources for gaming site MCV, saying the PSP2 will be on store shelves in time for the holidays of 2011.
This report also corroborates earlier reports of the PSP2's console-rivaling power.
While, it seems pretty unbelievable that such a small device could be as powerful as the PS3 , which has been acknowledged as having the most graphics processing power among consoles, keep in mind that the PS3 is getting along in years and mobile processing has progressed by leaps and bounds recently. For instance, several manufacturers announced dual-core processors in their smartphones at CES 2011.
Sony is putting a lot of emphasis on powerful gaming with the PSP2 because mobile gaming platforms have sprung up for iPhone, Android and other smartphone systems. Interestingly, the PSP2 will include some kind of phone functionality, perhaps similar to how the original PSP can use Skype, but it will not primarily be a phone. The PSP2 is also separate from the rumored PlayStation Phone , which runs Android.
MCV sources say that the PSP2 will rely heavily on downloadable games, likely through a Wi-Fi connection, but that it will also accept physical media so that games can be sold in retail stores.

Persons that are not baptized witnesses are not required to dress any particular way as long as it is modest. I have seen women come to the meetings at times in pants and they are welcomed. It can also depend on the normal dress of a culture or area. Also there is room for personal tastes in dress.
1 Timothy 2::8-10Â Likewise I desire the women to adorn themselves in well-arranged dress, with modesty and soundness of mind, not with styles of hair braiding and gold or pearls or very expensive garb, 10Â but in the way that befits women professing to reverence God, namely, through good works.
The above scriptures stresses dresssing in modesty, included wearing makeup in modesty, etc. Also some of the more restrictive dress standards no longer apply since we no longer live under the law covenant as stated at Deuteronomy 22:5
Be Informed:
I mean this sincerely, not to be arguementative but these are quotes from the Watchtower, I can't get the book 'keep yourself in God's love' on here, but these do not say what you are saying to 'thinking person'. I also found a Kingdom Ministry (some kind of literature from Jehovah Witnesses) that says it IS a disfellowshipping offense to associate with someone disassociated...AND there is the quotes from the Watchtower about attending a funeral for a disfellowshipped person and for associating with a relative who is disfellowshipped. Are these incorrect?????/
"What about speaking with a disfellowshipped person? While the Bible does not cover every possible situation, 2 John 10 helps us to get Jehovah's view of matters: "If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, never receive him into your homes or say a greeting to him." Commenting on this, The Watchtower of September 15, 1981, page 25, says: "A simple 'Hello' to someone can be the first step that develops into a conversation and maybe even a friendship. Would we want to take that first step with a disfellowshipped person?" Indeed, it is just as page 31 of the same issue of The Watchtower states: "The fact is that when a Christian gives himself over to sin and has to be disfellowshipped, he forfeits much: his approved standing with God; . . . sweet fellowship with the brothers, including much of the association he had with Christian relatives."⦠Cooperating with the Scriptural arrangement to disfellowship and shun unrepentant wrongdoers is beneficial. It preserves the cleanness of the congregation and distinguishes us as upholders of the Bible's high moral standards. (1 Pet. 1:14-16) It protects us from corrupting influences. (Gal. 5:7-9) It also affords the wrongdoer an opportunity to benefit fully from the discipline received, which can help him to produce "peaceable fruit, namely, righteousness."-Heb. 12:11. After hearing a talk at a circuit assembly, a brother and his fleshly sister realized that they needed to make adjustments in the way they treated their mother, who lived elsewhere and who had been disfellowshipped for six years. Immediately after the assembly, the man called his mother, and after assuring her of their love, he explained that they could no longer talk to her unless there were important family matters requiring contact." Kingdom Ministry Aug 2002 p.3
"Cutting off from the Christian congregation does not involve immediate death, so family ties continue. Thus, a man who is disfellowshipped or who disassociates himself may still live at home with his Christian wife and faithful children⦠The situation is different if the disfellowshipped or disassociated one is a relative living outside the immediate family circle and home. It might be possible to have almost no contact at all with the relative. Even if there were some family matters requiring contact, this certainly would be kept to a minimum, in line with the divine principle: "Quit mixing in company with anyone called a brother that is a fornicator or a greedy person [or guilty of another gross sin], . . . not even eating with such a man."-1 Corinthians 5:11. Understandably, this may be difficult because of emotions and family ties, such as grandparents' love for their grandchildren. Yet, this is a test of loyalty to God, as stated by the sister quoted on page 26." Watchtower 1988 Apr 15 p.27
"It is the disfellowshipped person who has made problems for himself and for his relatives." Watchtower 1981 Sep 15 p.27
"Yet, there might be some absolutely necessary family matters requiring communication, such as legalities over a will or property. But the disfellowshiped relative should be made to appreciate that his status has changed, that he is no longer welcome in the home nor is he a preferred companion." Watchtower 1970 Jun 1 pp.351-352
"The wrongdoer has to realize that his status is completely changed, that his faithful Christian relatives thoroughly disapprove of his wicked course and show this disapproval by limiting contacts to only those which are unavoidableâ¦" Watchtower 1963 Jul 15 p.444
"Jesus encouraged his followers to love their enemies, but God's Word also says to "hate what is bad." When a person persists in a way of badness after knowing what is right, when the bad becomes so ingrained that it is an inseparable part of his make-up, then in order to hate what is bad a Christian must hate the person with whom the badness is inseparably linked." Watchtower 1961 Jul 15 p.420
"In "Questions from Readers" (The Watchtower, 1961, p. 544) the position was taken that a funeral for a disfellowshiped person was improper. The comment was made: "We never want to give the impression to outsiders that a disfellowshiped person was accept

You are wasaaaaaaaaaay WRONG!! We do accept surgeries and we do accept medications.. No we do not accept blood transfusions, but there are alternitives that many hospitals do offer that DO NOT involve blood. If your aunt CHOSE to fool with her life and not respect the fact that Jehovah has put in place medical professionals to help then that is truly her own fault. I have several friends who ARE cancer survivors and YES they are all J.W.'s and NO they didnt accept blood during surgery. And THEY are aliveand well to this day. I my self have has several surgeries and I too am very well and alive ) Thus this comment ) We arent the religion that doesnt accept medical help. I believe Scientologists reject medical advice and medications..Im sorry you lost your aunt , but Michael did infact want his mother to raise his children. As for his leaving the Faith, He chose to so as not to bring a REPROCH upon the Name of Jehovah God. That was his decision. No one forced him out. That isnt done. And I was raised in the Jehovah's Witness Faith from about 3 years old... I always had presents. I never had to wait for a Holiday or a birthday to get presents. We got them all the time. And I did the same for my Children as well. They are ALL very happy and healthy and never felt they missed a thing. As for Michael, He said he missed out on CHILDHOOD. To him this was all a part of childhood. And for many it is. But there is a youtube video showing him singing Heal THe World and them his voice talking about his life. He clearly states HE never turned his back on Jehovah God and that on Sundays he enjoyed studying his Watch Tower Magizne. So those are his words. His feelings and he knew that his children will be safe and happy with Grandma. As for celebrations.. Michael did things like that all year round. He didnt wait for those specific holidays.. he just did them.
Be Informed:
Okay so I'm confused...still...it's better LOL So it's okay to talk to a disfellowshipped person as long as you don't agree or try and justify their 'bad' actions OR is to try and justify why you are talking to them???? I took it as the later.
Second if you can talk to a disfellowhshipped person what's all the counsel about 'not even saying Hi to them?' Is that a commandment or just good guidelines? Or up to each individual.
As for the interfaith ceremony. I was under the impression JW's could not and would not attend another Church service. That even being there gives the indication that you are approving of it or it could be taken by some that you have no issue with it. I know there are witnesses here that won't do any work on a Church (labor, yard work, repairs etc) I thought JW's were huge about believing in no interfaith??????
And is true you guys consider the Watchtower Religon your Mother? That God is the Father and the JW leaders is the Mother and they parent you guys??
Thanks for answering this stuff. Yes I did try and talk to a JW but they said I was acting as though I am not 'rightly disposed' and that asking these questions is an indication of whether I am being called by him? I don't agree, I just want to know :) Thanks!
WAIT...I am not trying to be picky here but wouldn't Rebbie be disfellowshipped for talking about spiritual things with Michael like the resurrection because isn't that what you were saying before?????? I'm not trying to be picky here but it really does seem to contradict...or I am missing something and I'm sorry if I am.
Please, leave the MJ-kids alone. They must be very sad seeing how adults are critisizing severly their family. Let those kids alone. They and their family are mourning.
By the way, Jehovah's witnesses don't dress like that when they are assiting at meetings. Don't you think those pictures are edit? It could be they were spotted entering a kingdom hall, but at another time, not on that picture. TMZ just put an picture of the kids, and may be an computer freak edit the books in their hands......??????
Stop hating, be kind to each other.
NO MORE COMMENTS!!! IT'S ENOUGH!!! TMZ , CLOSE THIS CASE. Pleaseeeeeeeee....CLOSED!!!!!!
close this case!!!
Be informed and any one else...I am not hating I am sincerely asking. I am not trying to say 'oh your stupid for believing this' or it's bad for the kids...I am just trying to understand this disfellowshipping thing, and a few other questions that surprised me. It seems like the only thing that really happens to a disfellowshipped person is their names are taken off the Church rolls, but they can still maintain their relationships as long as they don't talk about God. At least that is how I am taking it. Please don't put me in the bunch if JW haters...I am not...
Dear Confused: It seems you are mixing different scenarios. The bible based advice is not to speak to disfellowshipped persons. It is not up to individual choice. But family members may have to speak for important matters. The elders can speak to them on spiritual mattters.
The warnings given are due to the deceptive power of sin:
Hebrews #: 12-15Â Beware, brothers, for fear there should ever develop in any one of YOU a wicked heart lacking faith by drawing away from the living God; 13Â but keep on exhorting one another each day, as long as it may be called âToday,â for fear any one of YOU should become hardened by the DECEPTIVE POWER OF SIN. 14Â For we actually become partakers of the Christ only if we MAKE FAST OUR HOLD ON THE CONFIDENCE WE HAD AT THE BEGINNING FIRM TO THE END. 15Â while it is being said: âToday if YOU people listen to his own voice, do not harden YOUR hearts as on the occasion of causing bitter anger.
True JW's do not attend church services. But for interfaith funerals it is a matter of personal conscience to attend. (Usually for non-JW family members). As long as the person does not participate, i.e. in prayers, eulogies. Each person has to make that decision for themselves, without being judged on their choice to attend or not. The type of service can weigh on the choice since cultures vary with rituals. They should receive counsel from the elders .The important point is to be respectful to all. It is true that JW's don't accept employ at churches.
Your question: And is true you guys consider the Watchtower Religon your Mother? That God is the Father and the JW leaders is the Mother and they parent you guys??
Answer: This term is used today FIGURATELY. It denotes a close SPRITUAL relationship.
Jesus speaking:
(Mark 3:31-35) 31Â Now his mother and his brothers came, and, as they were standing on the outside, they sent in to him to call him. 32Â As it was, a crowd was sitting around him, so they said to him: âLook! Your mother and your brothers outside are seeking you.â 33Â But in reply he said to them: âWho are my mother and my brothers?â 34Â And having looked about upon those sitting around him in a circle, he said: âSee, my mother and my brothers! 35Â WHOEVER DOES THE WILL OF GOD, THIS ONE IS MY BROTHER AND SISTER AND MOTHER. (Recall that Jesus' brothers and sisters did not follow him at first.)
(1 Timothy 5:1-2) 5âDo not severely criticize an older man. To the contrary, entreat him as a father, younger men as brothers, 2Â older women as mothers, younger women as sisters with all chasteness.
Yes, Jehovah is our heavenly Father:
(Matthew 5:43-48) 43Â âYOU heard that it was said, âYou must love your neighbor and hate your enemy.â 44Â However, I say to YOU: Continue to love YOUR enemies and to pray for those persecuting YOU; 45Â that YOU may prove yourselves sons of YOUR FATHER WHO IS IN THE HEAVENS.....48Â YOU must accordingly be perfect, as YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER Father is perfect.
NOTE: This is not the forum to answer all your questions. May I suggest you create another email account for me to contact you and post it here? Take Care.
Acts 12:48Â When those of the nations heard this, they began to rejoice and to glorify the word of Jehovah, and all those who were RIGHTLY DISPOSED for everlasting life BECAME BELIEVERS.
(Revelation 21:5-7) 5Â And the One seated on the throne said: âLook! I am making all things new.â Also, he says: âWrite, because these words are faithful and true.â.....To ANYONE thirsting I will give from the fountain of the water of life FREE. 7Â Anyone conquering will inherit these things, and I shall be his God and he will be my son.
Dear Confused:
On your question:
1165. WAIT...I am not trying to be picky here but wouldn't Rebbie be disfellowshipped for talking about spiritual things with Michael like the resurrection because isn't that what you were saying before?????? I'm not trying to be picky here but it really does seem to contradict...or I am missing something and I'm sorry if I am.
Answer: No, she probably would not. This family kept certain matters private, rightfully. No one knows the time line of her speaking to Michael or his status. The guidelines you may be referring to: An elder/brother that decided to speak at graveside or memorial not to make positive statements about the resurrection of a disfellowshipped one. (Since it is up to Jehovah and Christ who will judge us all.) It has been said that Rebbie's husband may be an elder. If so, he probably counseled her. And would have been qualified to speak to Michael on spiritual matters. Can't say he did, though.
I am simply Debra. I am So ashamed of this terrible ordeal. I was raised until the age of 14...Jehovah Witness. I think these kids should be guided in a more spiritual nature. That is what it takes spirituality! Treat others as you would have done to you! My mom is one of the anointed (one of the 144,000) (ya right) My dad is an elder. I emancipated myself at of 14. I could tell it was not (The truth). I have been thru hell and back just trying to realize that I was shunned. I was shunned simply because I said I did not want to walk door to door preaching. Somehow in my mind, I feel like going back. It draws you back in, as a child you feel not worthy. It is a guilt and shame issue. You just want acceptance. I am a Dental Professional, model, an incredibly blessed poet and still don't feel worthy. It has been a struggle forever.
best and More,
To Michael Jackson's Voice on your comment 1163:
You said:
He clearly states HE never turned his back on Jehovah God and that on Sundays he enjoyed studying his Watch Tower Magizne
Q: Could you post the YouTube link, there are so many Heal the World Videos on YouTube. Or anyone that knows which one.Thxs.
I think everyone is greatly confused. Michael Jackson did not "miss out" on his childhood due to being a JW, he missed out on his childhood because he became a huge superstar at a very early age and had a psychotic father! The JW faith is not an oppressive one, just because we do not celebrate holidays does not mean we are depressed and are loners. We are a very happy people, we do not need holidays and birthdays to start being thankful and remembering family and friends and getting them gifts, we do have parties and get togethers and different celebrations of all kinds all year long. BUT we do it because we want to from our hearts not because we have to because that's the thing to do during holidays and birthdays. Everyone gets others gifts because they HAVE TO... it's what society does. We do it because we WANT to... from our hearts. Let their g-mother take the kids to the Kingdom Hall... they will be treated like normal kids and will be loved by all the members and they WILL find comfort after their father's death. If later on they don't want to be a part of the organization they don't have to... no one is going to make them... no one made Michael and his siblings....

When I was young - and a Democrat - I worked on the 1977 inauguration. In the parade, I had responsibility for everyone other than the President and Vice President. So the Inaugural committee - headed up the Senator Hubert Humphrey - the cabinet, the Supreme Court were all within my responsibility to get them seated, then into their vehicles and down to the reviewing stand in front of the White House. I had my own car in the parade - just after these officials.

One of my friends stole the "Ted Sorenson - CIA" sign for that car that was to carry the Carter appointee for that post. He withdrew after the firestorm and I told him that story a decade or so later.

Later that night, I was in charge of security at the Georgia/staff inaugural gala. I missed meeting John Lennon although I saw him at the event; I do get to say that I was at a party once with Lennon. I did meet Freddie Prinze - just days before his death.

I've been invited to several others since and have not attended. But I think it is worthwhile for everyone. We live in a harshly partisan time and, while I am no fan of the current Administration, I like to think that we can come together for a moment and celebrate who we've been and reflect on where we're going.

We have a great country.

When living rural there is a set of "unwritten rules" that you are expected to live by.

Margaret Thatcher, Britain's first female PM, dead at 87
Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, a towering figure in postwar British and world politics and the only woman to become British prime minister, has died at the age of 87. She suffered a stroke Monday, her spokeswoman said. A British government source said she died at the Ritz Hotel in London. Thatcher's funeral will be at St. Paul's Cathedral, with full military honors, followed by a private cremation, the British prime minister's office announced. Thatcher served from 1975 to 1990 as leader of the Conservative Party. She was called the "Iron Lady" for her personal and political toughness....

Sunstone Unearthed From Shipwreck
In 1592, a British ship sank near the island of Alderney in the English Channel carrying an odd piece of cargo: a small, angular crystal. Though cloudy and scuffed up from 4 centuries at the bottom of the sea, its precise geometry and proximity to the ship's navigation equipment caught the eye of a diver exploring the wreckage. Once it was brought back to land, a few European scientists began to suspect the mysterious object might be a calcite crystal, which they believe Vikings and other European seafarers used to navigate before the introduction of the magnetic compass....

The 12-foot-long, 10-foot-high, 10-foot-wide giant replica of the human colon will be on exhibit near the Fukushima Auditorium. WVU Healthcare physicians, nurses, and cancer specialists will guide visitors as they walk through the Strollin' Colon and observe the developmental stages of colon cancer. "By hosting the Strollin' Colon, we hope to raise awareness so that people will get in the habit of having regular screenings. Early detection is key to preventing colon cancer and ultimately reducing the number of people who die from this disease," Sobha Kurian, M.D., oncologist at the Mary Babb Randolph Cancer Center, said. "The problem persists because far too many people are not being screened." WVU Healthcare staff will ask visitors to complete a pre- and post-test to assess their knowledge of colon cancer. There will be give-away items and free snacks that are considered healthy choices for preventing colon cancer. "We encourage people to bring along any questions they may have about colon cancer when they come out to see the Strollin' Colon," Pamela Vlahakis Ash, nurse clinician at the Cancer Center, said. "This is meant to be a fun but educational event. Participants are welcome to bring their cameras to take pictures with the colon." A colonoscopy is considered the "gold standard" for colon-cancer screening. WVU Healthcare digestive diseases experts will be on hand to answer any questions participants may have about a colonoscopy. The American Cancer Society estimates that more than 142,000 Americans are diagnosed with colon cancer every year and more than 50,000 die from the disease. --WVU HEALTH-- 14-028 For more information: Amy Johns, Director of Public Affairs, 304-293-7087 email@example.com ss: 03-03-14 Return To News Releases

MICHIGAN CITY | Michigan City kicks off its Lake Michigan fishing season this weekend with a salmon competition attended by anglers from throughout the region.
The 39th annual Hoosier Coho Club Classic is Saturday and Sunday.
More than 70 boats, each occupied by as many as five or six fishermen, are expected to compete for a $10,000 first prize and $40,000 in other prize money.
"There's still a lot of people in the area that don't realize there's world class fishing just a few miles away," said Mike McKee, vice president of the Hoosier Coho Club.
Contestants will launch at 7 a.m. each day at Washington Park and return by 1 p.m. for an official weigh in of their catch.
McKee said the judging is done by both the number and weight of the catch.
"You need big fish to win," McKee said.
McKee said many of the contestants have historically made the drive from Michigan in areas like St. Joseph and Ludington.
The remainder of the participants come from throughout northwest Indiana and Illinois.
LaPorte County Convention and Visitors Bureau president Jack Arnett said the tournament doesn't attract many onlookers like the annual Great Lakes Grand Prix and other major events during the season.
However, he said, the competition is vital for marketing Michigan City as a major fishing destination.
"It all ties in with our marketing of the marina and the fishing fruits on Lake Michigan," Arnett said.
McKee said Hoosier Coho Club has more than 100 members and its mission is to promote sport fishing in the lake especially among youth along with preservation.
This year's tournament will again be featured as the opening episode in the 13-part Salmon Showdown television series which airs nationwide in January.
"We hope we get a couple of days of flat water and no rain," Arnett said.

BRAC-like commission proposed to hunt down government cost savings
A new commission, proposed by David Walker, former U.S. comptroller general, would recommend ways to streamline government by removing duplication and extraneous spending from government agencies. Federal-employee unions criticized the proposal and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee lawmakers expressed skepticism that such a proposal could gain congressional approval.

OMB takes first step toward comprehensive inventory of federal programs
The Office of Management and Budget took the first step Friday in attempting to compile a comprehensive list of federal programs with the launch of a new online inventory. Hosted on Performance.gov, the Federal Program Inventory aims to be a one-stop shop for information about the more than 1,600 programs agencies operate and how they complement -- or even duplicate -- the work of other programs.

Box 4-11
Rusnano to Bring New Drug Manufacturing to Russia
Rusnano plans to team with U.S. investor Domain Associates in coinvest-ing in about 20 U.S.-based health care technology companies. Rusnano will invest up to $330 million, while Domain's venture capital funds and other investors will invest a comparable amount. Additional funds will be used to establish a pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing facility in Russia, where products created by the recipients of Rusnano's investments will be manufactured.
SOURCE: Reuters, March 6, 2012, and Appendix E.5.
funds will be used effectively in enhancing the nation's research capabilities in the near term.
Finally, as previously discussed, the Skolkovo Foundation has engaged the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to contribute to the design and establishment of a new high-technology university that is to become one of the anchors at Skolkovo, near Moscow. At Skolkovo, Russia hopes to replicate important aspects of Silicon Valley. Strong universities have been important components of successful technoparks in Russia and in many other countries, although the planned scale of activities at Skolkovo far exceeds similar efforts in other parts of Russia. Biomedical research is one of five key areas of interest. (See Appendix E.4.)
Summarizing, the two governments can provide incentives for individual scientists, research teams, and commercial organizations to explore and propose new topics for bilateral cooperation. In principle, cooperation can be a driver of innovation that results in profit, particularly in Russia, where efforts to penetrate international markets have almost always encountered difficulties. Small- and medium-sized companies, in particular, need special encouragement to use their entrepreneurial skills in bringing new products to market. Thus, cooperation will require strong government involvement for years into the future.
The value of applied science to government agencies in both countries and to the general public should not be underestimated. Every day, policy makers, regulators, and researchers rely on up-to-date scientific information that affects their responsibilities. Every day the general population awaits the miracle drug, the strength-enhancing nutrient, and the harmless-to-humans repellent of undesirable insects. Thus, cooperation should serve both the public and the private sectors,

I'm really excited about the new raid format. Very promising, and tends to everyone's needs!
I want the friggin' release date!
I spent so much time in Upper Blackrock Spire farming items for reputation for title The Insane! Can't wait for the remake version!
I am interested to see the changes that are going to be put into place. Thanks Blizz!
Loving the look of the new raid system and the fact you can now queue for 10 man raid finder! Awesome job :)
Hmm.. Can't tell is blizz is trolling about Grom Hellscream being the last boss or not...They said the last boss wouldn't be an orc, so they must be trolling.
i don't know how i feel about this xpac
Will they be redoing the old raids like karazhan and BC raids?
it is nice to see how will those great 10m guilds react cause of this 20man news... :) Will paragon stop raiding or will they find lot of new good players?
I've always favored the loot system "Who needs this piece of gear the most?".
I love ubrs since classic. General Drakkisath won't be prepared for my hunter.Also the 'new' raid tiers sounds nice.
This whole expansion is exciting. no more "yay max level, oh boo, dailies...": plus you dont have to really exclude anyone during a main raid or else do lfr. (btw the inclusion of the convert from 5.4=>6.0 was pretty good)I really, really cannot wait for this thing to launch!
I'd love to see shared Garrisons, me and my girlfriend play together and would prefer to share one instead of separate!
Sort of disappointed I need to find 10 more people to do the "real" Heroic difficulty now. But the flexible size on Normal modes will be nice.
"Legendary quests--I've done them before, but this one just feels like a raid requirement. Any changes in the future?We definitely do want to do a legendary questline--and those aren't exclusive concepts. In 6.0 we want a legendary questline for an item like the cape, but also do exclusive legendaries like past expansions or in the same way we have Garrosh heirloom weapons. We think we can have a balance between both."Sweet. <3 I like the whole legendary for everybody thing (probably the only way for me to get one without running old content), but exclusive legendaries feel more legendary. :P
The chart comparing the two modes of raiding makes everything better.
I like most of the changes made for that xpac, but I'm really not sure about the 20 man mythic raid. Sure ots better for the future of raiding, but it's such a big change for the 10 man guilds that I fear many will just quit the game.
I really like the changes to normal raids (behaving like flex raids at all times). I'm a little sad that it will have its wing system removed - I still likely won't be able to capitalize on it, as I have an extremely inconsistent schedule, which is why I don't raid very much in the first place - but this makes it more probable that I could get in on one, even if it were halfway through, or only for the first few bosses or something. Looking good, Blizz!
Nice nice, can't wait for the new expantion! :D

The capabilities and cost saving advantages of VoIP over traditional telecom are driving its rapid acceptance as the new standard for voice communications. However, unlike past technological advancements, VoIP is seeing growth not only in advanced economies or specific sectors, but on an international scale. In fact, some of the fastest growing regions are those that traditionally have had less developed infrastructures. So where is this hot industry growing the fastest, and where is it facing resistance? We have crunched the numbers to get a truly global picture of the bright future of VoIP.
If you would like to place this infographic onto your website then simply copy/paste the code below into your relevant page.
Here are some high level global VoIP trends in 2013 and forecasts of where VoIP is going in 2014:
The following countries have debated, or have implemented, bans on VoIP or OTT in order to curtail free speech or protect native telecom industries:
The future of VoIP is international. As growth continues the acceptance and promotion of VoIP technologies by both governments and telecom companies, will play a major role in determining which countries and regions will lead the revolution, reaping the benefits of advanced telecom networks, and which will be left in the digital dust.

Excellent article and info-graphics. However, I have two questions. Firstly, I would like to know how do you measure the number of users, is it only subscribers, subscribers per household, unique users or number of devices connected. Secondly, I was wondering if there is a website that I can visit to obtain the latest information about number of subscribers and the largest markets for VOIP.
-> Response: I tend to look at subscribers as anyone that has subscribed to a VoIP service. So if I have VoIP at home with a provider and also use my mobile voip app with that same provider that is still 1 subscriber as 1 service and 1 account. Likewise if my wife uses it, it is still subscribed to the same provider. However, people have different opinions on this so it is tough to give a right or wrong answer here, in all honesty.
Regarding research, there are many places but we tend to take note of PRs released from companies such as Infonetics.

Steelers season goes all year long so whether we're previewing training camp, predicting roster moves, or looking around for mentions of your Black & Gold we've got you covered. Here's what's being said about your Pittsburgh Steelers around the block.
Bruce's Pittsburgh Part 2
Steelers backup quarterback and Pittsburgh native Bruce Gradkowski takes us on part 2 of his journey through Pittsburgh. In this edition he stops on top of the Mt. Washington overlook which provides one of, if not the best, views of the city skyline. He also stops in Firori's Pizzaria with wide receiver Lance Moore, who was Gradkowski's roommate at Toledo. Of course a tour of Pittsburgh isn't complete without a stop at Primanti Bros in the Strip District. You can watch Part 2 right here.
Steelers offered Finley a deal
Free agent tight end Jermichael Finley is still recovering from spinal cord surgery but he told Tom Pelissero of USA Today Sports that he still is considering signing with a team. Probably not likely that is the Pittsburgh Steelers, as the money he was looking for certainly wasn't offered by them.
"Pittsburgh have showed me a couple deals, but we all know the money ain't what it's supposed to be. If I quit the game right now, I can take tax-free money, and that's a difficult thing that I'm going through with myself…" – Jermichael Finley
PFT Preseason Power Rankings
The Pittsburgh Steelers ranked fifteen on Pro Football Talk's Preseason Power Rankings. Mike Florio, and all his infinite wisdom, explains the Steelers strengths are Ben Roethlisberger, the offseason improvement to the running game, the offensive line, and linebacking corps. He contends the weaknesses are the lack of proven talent at wide receiver other than Antonio Brown, the lack of depth at tight end, and of course the cornerback position. Do you agree with the assessment?
