Welcome! We are not affiliated with the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania or any other religion.
The Watchtower refers to former EX-JW's (i.e. EX-Jehovah's Witnesses) as 'apostates'. However critics say that the real apostates are the leaders of the Watchtower Society. Why? Because they have rejected the love of 'enemies' that Jesus taught. The Watchtower teaches JW's to hate enemies! See Religious Persecution
Instead of being saved by God's grace, Jehovah's Witnesses are promised salvation if they work hard for the organization. They must obey the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses and Elders without asking questions or disagreeing.
The problem is how do you know when you've done enough for Jehovah? What if you could have done a little bit more and didn't? What if you don't believe everything the Watchtower teaches? What if you secretly broke some rules? You fooled the Watchtower, but did you fool Jehovah? Did Jehovah see you breaking his rules? Did he see you sinning over and over again?
Jehovah's Witnesses carry a heavy load. After working so hard for salvation, they are never sure that they will be saved. They could spend an entire life time keeping rules fairly well, but if they sin the day of armageddon, they worry that Jehovah may not spare them. They may die forever without any hopes of a resurrection.
Instead of relying on God, the organization has become the path to eternal life just like 'the ark' in Noah's day.
In order to 'keep the organization clean' and avoid Jehovah's anger upon the entire organization at armageddon, Jehovah's Witnesses are required to keep strict rules. The list of things Jehovah 'hates' grows every day.
The practice of shunning 'apostates' causes extreme depression for apostates AND JW's! Shunning pressures JW's into returning to the organization but causes unimaginable emotional pain. Some EX-JW's haven't heard from their relatives in decades.
JW's are using a symbolic 'sword' to break up families because the Watchtower says Jesus came to bring 'a sword', divisions, and the break up of families. Matthew 10:34; JW's are told that shunning is a test of loyalty to Jesus.
But how can this be? Jesus never used a sword to intimidate enemies into being Christians. Christians were not violent. It was the enemies of Jesus who were using 'a sword' to kill Christians, cause divisions, and the break up of families. By using emotional violence (a sword) against apostates, JW's are being loyal to the enemies of Jesus! They are rejecting every single principle of love for 'enemies' that Jesus and 'the Father' taught. Matthew 10:34 'I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.'
Watchtower censors information and forbids Jehovah's Witnesses from considering what 'apostates' have to say. Thus they keep Jehovah's Witnesses in spiritual darkness. See Censored Information

Elston Side Chair is rated out of 5 by 12.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Priusdrivinmom from Fun & funky chair! We bought four Elston side chairs & two arm chairs a few weeks ago. They are awesome! I'm in the process of adding cream seat cushions to them to protect them & balance the room. One arrived with a small crack in the seat (where the planks meet), but C&B is taking care of it, so they get an excellent rating as far as I am concerned. Old fashioned customer service...who would have thunk it from such a big company?

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gabrielle from Exceptional quality and design. We purchased six Elston side chairs and two arm chairs a number of months ago, and are very happy with them. They are comfortable, lovely to look at, and well made. Besides being beautiful, the metal frames are very sturdy and give the chair a nice heft. The wood is gorgeous, and I appreciate that I can actually see the graining -- so much furniture now looks almost painted, the varnishes are so thick and opaque. As some have written already, the wooden seats are prone to scratching, but I'd imagine any wooden chair would be. Mango is a hardwood, though it is on the softer end of the hardwoods. However, because the seats and backs are solid wood, the scratches are more like indentations and only show up when the light reflects off the surface at just the right angle -- there isn't a change in color, like there would be with delicate veneers, or with cheaper varnishes that sit on the surface of the wood. The solid wood seats and backs were a major selling point for us, as it means that at some point, if we want to, we can sand them down and refinish instead of having to buy all new chairs. Even better, the seats and backs are simply screwed onto the frames, so it would be very easy to do. For all of these reasons, I highly recommend these chairs!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sean from Elston Side Chair Bought the chairs to go with the Galvin dining room table. We bought 4 to go along the sides and then bought two chairs to go at the ends that are upolstered with a bold pattern. The upholstered chairs with the Elston chair makes for a really good look. Couldn't be more pleased!

Rated 4 out of 5 by yello109 from So Much Character in a Chair! We saw this in the store with the Rico Console PC desk and thought it was genius and the perfect piece for a smaller space and would add so much character. The chair itself did not seem to be that comfortable, but it gave the perfect school house look that makes it eclectic!

Rated 3 out of 5 by DesignAddicto from Look great - Prone to scratches These chairs look alot better in person. I have a couple of these and as a previous reviewer stated they are very prone to scratches from jeans. The bottom part of the frame is very sturdy but the back rest not so much.

Rated 4 out of 5 by prolix21 from beautiful chairs, scratch easily we bought 8 of these for our dining table and love them. they look great, are comfortable and match our table perfectly.the only issue is if you sit on these with a pair of pants that have rivets or any sort of metal button, we're noticing huge scratches and gouges in the seating surface. really disappointing that our brand new chairs are full of scratches after a handful of uses.

Pope Francis Prays At Wall Separating Israel, West Bank
Originally published on Sun May 25, 2014 10:30 am
Update at 9:40 a.m. ET. Pope Prays At Separation Wall:
In what is being characterized as an unprecedented gesture, Pope Francis stopped to pray at a wall that separates Israel from the West Bank in the city of Bethlehem on Sunday.
According to The Guardian, Francis prayed for four minutes during the unscheduled stop.
He put one hand on the wall and leaned over it, in a spot next to red graffiti that read, "Free Palestine." Silently, Francis also touched the wall with his forehead.
As we reported earlier, Francis has already made history on this three-day trip to the Middle East, giving symbolic approval to Palestinian hopes for an independent state by landing directly in Bethlehem on Sunday.
The previous three popes to visit the Holy Land went to the West Bank after first arriving at Tel Aviv, Israel.
After the dramatic stop at the wall, Francis then made another unprecedented call.
"In this, the birthplace of the Prince of Peace, I wish to invite you, President Mahmoud Abbas, together with President Shimon Peres, to join me in heartfelt prayer to God for the gift of peace," he said. "I offer my home in the Vatican as a place for this encounter of prayer."
According to the AP, the two men accepted and will go to the Vatican next month.
Our original post continues:
The pope is on the second day of his Mideast trip, which began Saturday with a stop in Jordan.
He went directly to a meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, the Associated Press reports.
"Jubilant, flag-waving Palestinians greeted Francis in Bethlehem's Manger Square, where he was to celebrate Mass on a stage next to the Church of the Nativity, built over Jesus' traditional birth grotto."
Worshipers include Arab Christians and migrant workers from Asia, reports NPR's Emily Harris for our Newscast desk. Palestinian and Vatican flags decorated the square, and many people wore black-and-white checked scarves, a symbol of the Palestinian cause, AP says.
Francis is only the fourth pontiff to visit the Holy Land, and will be the first to lay a wreath at the grave of Theodor Herzl, the founder of Zionism.
The Jerusalem Post says that 3,000 Palestinian security forces were deployed for the pope's visit.
Says CNN:
"His trip has been billed as a "pilgrimage for prayer," with its roots in faith, not politics.
"But in a region where religion and politics are so closely intertwined, his every remark will take on an added significance."
Later today, Francis will have lunch with Palestinian families and visit a Palestinian refugee camp, then arrive at Ben Gurion airport in Tel Aviv for a welcome ceremony.
The final event of the pope's day is a prayer service at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem with the leader of the world's Orthodox Christians.

Shameless's Shanola Hampton Gives Birth — See Her Daughter's Unique Name
Big news for Showtime actress Shanola Hampton. The Shameless star, 36, just gave birth to a baby girl, and she's already taken to Twitter to gush about how much she loves being a mom. "I thought I knew love before, but now I know love on a completely different level! Can't believe my baby is here! #overwhelmed #blessed," Shanola tweeted on January 20. The actress, who plays Fiona's (Emmy Rossum) best friend, Veronica, on Shameless welcomed her first child with husband Daren Dukes. The little girl weighed 6 pounds, 3 ounces and measured 20 inches long. Her name is Cai MyAnna — how cool is that? Baby Cai's parents live in Los Angeles and have been married for 13 years. He's a writer, an actor, and also the creator/producer of The Dallas Cowboy Show. Shanola kept things super-glam up to the very last moment of her pregnancy. Just six days ago, she posted an Instagram photo showing off her 6-inch heels. "Who says you can't wear thigh high 6" boots 9 months pregnant! Keep it glam! #pregnantinheels #glabor" she wrote. Does this mean Cai is destined to be a pro at strutting around in heels? We wouldn't be surprised one bit. #fabulous

First Listen: Rodrigo y Gabriela, '9 Dead Alive'
In their newest album, 9 Dead Alive, Rodrigo y Gabriela return to their roots, reminding listeners why they fell in love with the Mexican duo in the first place. The album finds them at the peak of their musical flexibility, dexterously weaving elements of heavy metal with flamenco.
These Mexico City natives are an if-at-first-you-don't-succeed parable. As heavy metal musicians, Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero had trouble launching their careers. Making it in one of the biggest music scenes in the Spanish speaking world is as pivotal as it is nightmarish: if you break through in Mexico, you've made it in Latin America, but succeeding in an environment that is frequently reluctant to take risks can also be an impossible task. So they picked up to go busk in Ireland, where they perfected the guitar licks that have made them famous.
The band has a loyal fan base that has followed them as they experiment with more orchestral and cinematic sounds (they famously put music to Shrek, Pirates of the Caribbean and Puss In Boots.) But this new album is extremely stripped down and minimalistic, a treat both for those who've been following the duo since the beginning, and also for those who recently discovered them: letting listeners eavesdrop on a private conversation spoken between two friends, in the universal language of the guitar.

United States Attorney NewsLos Angeles lawyers insist on client's releaseBlair Berk and Leonard Levine, defense lawyers in Los Angeles, are arguing for the release of their client, Darren Sharper, who used to play in the National Football League. Sharper has submitted a not guilty plea to sexually assaulting two women in Los Angeles. However, Sharper remains on indefinite custody with no bail after prosecutors pointed out that he also has an arrest warrant issued by authorities in Louisiana. Sharper's lawyers are insisting on his release because no case has been filed yet pertaining to the Louisiana arrest warrant. Man cleared of theft chargesKevin Keheley can breathe a sigh of relief after a jury exonerated him of theft. Keheley was accused of defrauding a man after entering into a contract of developing an application for a smartphone, which he was never able to produce. The contract was for $17,000 and Keheley was paid up front with $10,000. Keheley then relocated to Austin but promised to finish the application. This, however, never happened. Denver criminal lawyer Laurie Schmidt, who defended for Keheley, said that what happened was a business dispute. Schmidt added that Keheley had no intention of running away from giving back the money that he received as evidenced by emails showing his intention to pay the money back. Former Human Rights Commission employee enters plea deal in child pornographyLarry Brinkin, who used to work for the Human Rights Commission of San Francisco, entered into a plea deal agreement on his child pornography charges. The plea deal saw a second charge of child pornography distribution dropped against the 67-year-old Brinkin. Under the plea deal, Brinkin will spend six months behind bars and another six months of house arrest. Afterwhich, he will undergo probation for four years. Brinkin, who is a staunch supporter of the LGBT advocacy, will also be entered in the list of sexual offender and is ordered to go through therapy. Randall Knox, an attorney in San Francisco, said that Brinkin has been deeply sorry for what he has done and has fully understood the damage that child pornography can inflict on victims. Ex-cab driver agrees to plea deal in murder chargesA plea deal agreement has Broderick Kenyo Smith admitting to manslaughter instead of capital murder in the death of Arlando Maurice Pritchett in 2012. The plea agreement will have Smith serving just a year in jail for a split sentence of 10 years. His jail stay will be followed with probation for three years. Should Smith violate his probation, he could be made to serve the rest of his 10-year sentence. According to the police, Pritchett had an argument with a cab driver prior to his shooting while Smith admitted that he had been driving a cab during the time of the incident. Birmingham defense attorney Charles Salvagio said Smith had shot Pritchett because the latter had robbed him. 16-year-old charged with hate crime, will be tried as an adultRichard Thomas may only be 16 years old but he will be facing the charges filed against him as an adult. Thomas is facing several charges including "hate crime" after he set another teenager, Luke "Sasha" Fleischman, 18, on fire. Both were riding on a bus when the incident happened with Fleischman wearing a skirt. Fleischman's parents said their son does not identify himself either as a male or female. According to police, Thomas had told them he set Fleischman on fire because he is homophobic. San Francisco defense attorney Michael Cardoza said his client, Thomas, if convicted would be facing a longer sentence because of the hate crime charge. |

If you are a fan of Jennifer Aniston and follow all the updates about her than you probably already know that she was spotted trying the new Hourglass lipstick. Want to know what lipstick I am talking about?
The new Femme Rouge lipstick by Hourglass (which is already availabe in the US for $30). I assume that zuneta will have them later.
So what is it?
"A silky, richly pigmented formula that defines and shapes the lips as it moisturizes. This light as air formula immediately hydrates and softens lips for a luxurious feel and subtle shine." I also like the fact that it's refillable.
There are 12 shades available:
- Icon
- Nocturnal
- Fresco
- Fever
- Ballet
- Edition
- Fable
- Whisper
I love cream blushes and I love BECCA so cream blush from BECCA is something that I do love a lot!
I have mine in Amaryllis which is a rich dusty pink shade.
As you can see this blush has the same design as their cream eye shadows and I like such design: minimal and stylish.
So this is how Amaryllis looks in the pan. It may look a bit too bright but, believe me, it looks very natural after you apply and blend it.
Besides being very beautiful this product is also long- lasting and it stays on for a long time even on dry skin.
It's easy to use this blush and you can do it with your fingers. Also it's not a problem to blend it, it looks as a natural blush of your cheeks.
And this is how it looks like when applied.

Latest defense bills save Selfridge air fleet, more than 700 jobs
The fleet of A-10 fighters and hundreds of related jobs at Selfridge Air National Guard Base could be spared once more, after the U.S. House of Representatives passed its version of a 2015 defense bill preserving them from elimination.
The National Defense Authorization Act of 2015 passed 325-98 on the House floor about noon Thursday, restoring the A-10 fleet used by the Air Guard. An initial version of the bill reflected Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel's decision in February to retire all 343 active A-10s from service, a move projected by the U.S. Department of Defense to save the government about $3.7 billion over five years.
But the marked-up version of the bill that cleared the House Thursday preserves the A-10 fleet for the next fiscal year, beginning Oct. 1. Another version of the bill, which also preserved the fleet, was approved in the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday.
"Today, the president's attempt to divest the A-10 was defeated yet again by the House, and I am confident that the fleet's champions in the Senate (will) ensurethe fleet is (also) preserved in the Senate bill," U.S. Rep. Candice Miller, R-Harrison Township, said in a statement today.
"Our support for the A-10 is based on facts, the cost effective nature of these aircraft, and the strong support of our soldiers who depend on the close air support provided by the A-10."
Selfridge, in Harrison Township, maintains a fleet of 18 Thunderbolt II A-10 fighters, along with eight KC-135 Stratotanker aerial refueling aircraft. The Thunderbolt II first entered military service in the 1970s and is sometimes called a "tank killer," conceived in the Cold War to combat a possible ground-based invasion of Western Europe. It saw combat during the initial Persian Gulf War in 1991 against various ground targets.
"We continue to watch this debate with vested interest since it does directly impact the careers of many of our Michigan Airmen, either through potential job loss, relocation or necessary retraining," Captain Penelope Carroll, chief of public affairs for the 127th Wing at Selfridge, said in a statement Thursday.
"We are eager for a final resolution to questions about the future of this aircraft, especially with the uncertainty of how this impacts our manning and future missions. However, until then we will continue to train in this mission until such time as we are directed to a new mission by the Air Force."
Congress previously grappled with A-10 funding in 2012 when the Air Force submitted a restructuring proposal that called for eliminating Selfridge's squadron of A-10 fighter aircraft but adding four KC-135s.
But Congress in a markup to the fiscal 2013 authorization bill added a provision to bar any effort "to divest, retire or transfer or prepare to divest, retire or transfer any aircraft." The current bill includes a similar provision, officials said, preserving the status quo for A-10s for at least one year.
Air Force officials estimated at the time that eliminating Selfridge's A-10 fleet would trim about 724 jobs, including 182 full-time active guard, reserve or military technician positions. Officials told Crain's this week the 2012 jobs figures should still be current.
Sen. Carl Levin, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, has said he believes Congress should use different measures if it wants to preserve the A-10 fleet.
"The A-10 is an exceptional aircraft that provides direct support to our troops on the ground, and this action helps prevent a gap in that capability that retirement of the A-10 would create," he said in a statement.

If purchasing additional batteries with this model please view the Traxxas battery application guide. Some battery packs will not fit every application and may require the purchase of a battery expansion kit.
This is a great beginner RC and runs very well, motor is fast, tires are good but wear out fast and the build is very high quality (Gears sometimes need adjusting). Only think i would caution is that plastic parts that traxxas and rpm sell tend to snap easily in very cold weather (had rpm bumper and more snap on a slow crash in -38 temperature. All though in warmer weather parts are very durable. If you are buying a traxxas bandit i would recommend it but be careful in cold places.
Back tires gets worn out quick
I've said it before "This is a great site..."the Bandit is a good buggy and a great beginner vehicle. I've got 2 sons into the hobby now.

TUESDAY'S CHILDREN Reviews
Invite reviews
Invite friends and colleagues to share their experiences with this nonprofit
November 15, 2012
After September 11, 2001, when life seemed to stop, Tuesday Children was there reaching out to help us along. They took care of the thinking, planning and coordinating that goes into events. All we had to do was show up. Even that wasn't always easy. They listened and met our needs. They provided support. This organization helped to put smiles back on our faces even just for a little bit. Over the last ten years that has amounted to a great deal. Thank you Tuesday's Children for reaching out and guiding us through our toughest years.

November 12, 2012
Although a "work in progress" Tuesday's Children has been a constant in my life for the past decade. As a family member I know that I can pick up the phone, eleven years later, and ask any question. It has always been an organization that has listened to the family's needs and as a result has survived, much like the families. Tuesday's Children has offered a sense of security for me and my family while staying committed to the mission that it was created from! Most remarkable, the work that has been accomplished through this organization knows no boundaries and their outreach extends globally.

September 7, 2012
I am a bona-fide 9-11 initial responder and single adoptive mother. My son had just turned 6 when the WTC came down. Plus we live in downtown Manhattan. The past ten years have been HELL for us. In the summer prior to the tenth anniversary of "9-11" I read that Tuesdays Children was opening up services to the children of responders and I leapt at their offer of a mentor program for my son. I had a couple of friendly phone calls then nobody wanted anything to do with us. My son was heartbroken that he didn't get to meet the Giants like all the other kids. The verbal promise of an invite to the 10th anniversary dinner never came through. (They had a 25K FLOWER budget for that one.) Nobody returned our emails. I was seeking support and some pump-up for my son as his mother has been disabled and homebound for years. I need press and I need an attorney. I can vet everything I'm saying except for this hypothesis: My hypothesis is that if one took acetates of names and neighborhoods related to 9-11 charities, you'll find hot spots in names of the players, recipients and zip codes. I believe the VP of FGF who was also on the board of TC blacklisted us because she didn't like me. Somebody please help us. email@example.com

Capcom's Bionic Commando hasn't fared so well in the US for sales, NPD's figures show Xbox 360 and PS3 copies combined only managed 27,000 in May. The game was developed by Swedish team Grin, who also recently developed Terminator: Salvation. The studio is rumoured to have reduced their head count, with more expected? "One of the key words we had to focus on was 'globalisation' and being able to sell our games on a global scale - not just Japan - was going to be one of the things to help us out of this pit," Capcom's Keiji Inafune said back in April. The NPD numbers revealed a 23 percent decrease in revenue across the whole US videogames industry for the month of May. While Terminator: Salvation get's a mention in the UK's videogame charts today (#16), Bionic Commando is MIA. Source: GamesIndustry.biz |

Open the Mac App Store to buy and download apps.
EdgeCase improves your multiple monitor productivity by restricting your mouse cursor to a single screen.
The app prevents you from ever accidentally losing your cursor into a rarely-used secondary display, or from overshooting as you flick to an OS X hotcorner or the menu bar.
When you do want to switch to another screen, EdgeCase provides several shortcuts that allow you to cross screen edges manually. Simply perform a 'bounce' gesture, wait for ½ second, or hold a hotkey. Your cursor will then move into the next screen freely.
☞ "I've found EdgeCase to be useful on my multiple-display setup." - Dan Frakes, Senior Editor at Macworld
☞ "A pretty good solution to this problem." - Marco Arment, Creator of Instapaper (dot com)
☞ "Once you have more than one monitor, instead of hitting the edge, the mouse moves to the other screen. EdgeCase solves this problem. With EdgeCase, the edge returns, and works as if you only had one monitor." - Lukas Mathis, Ignore the Code
EdgeCase prevents your mouse from moving between multiple monitors by putting a temporary barrier between the edges of your screens.
EdgeCase makes it easy to work with a single screen. It's better than closing your Mac laptop (aka clamshell mode) because running your laptop while closed leads to increased heat and fan output.
- You will never accidentally lose your cursor in a secondary monitor.
- Hot corners are easier to hit.
- Easily click on scrollbars or other widgets located on the edge of the screen.
- Never "overshoot" the Spotlight or Apple menus again.
When you do want to move your cursor into the secondary monitor, there are several crossing shortcuts:
- Bounce your cursor on the screen edge.
- Hold [ctrl] or [⌘].
- Wait for ½ second.
- Cross when dragging.
The barrier will unlock and your cursor will cross into the other monitor.
EdgeCase is an unobtrusive menubar app that works in the background. Click the menubar icon to access the app's options. Turn the crossing options On/Off, or temporarily disable the app.
EdgeCase: Fitts' Law infinite width screen edges for your OS X multiple monitors.

Customer Reviews
A disappointing
I'm disappointed, just because this app didn't do the one thing I wanted it to do. I don't like having the (hidden) Dock on the bottom of the monitor, and if it is on the right side I sometimes accidentally bring up the Dock in dealing with notifications. So I wanted to put the Dock on the left side, and hoped that this app would allow me to do this. In my case, I should explain, I keep my second monitor to the left of my iMac. But, although the app works as advertised, when put on the left side, the Dock still shows up on the left side of my second monitor, not my iMac. This is scarcely the developer's fault, I don't blame him at all. But I do blame the Apple Store. Since it does not permit demo versions (traditionally the heart and soul of the shareware industry), I had to purchase the app first and then discover that it's of no use to me. This experience cost me eight bucks and illustrates one of the major reasons I dislike the App Store. (Another reason is that a developer can't charge one price for new sales and another, lower one for upgrades for existing customers, so some developers are forced to charge absurdly high amounts for upgrades, BusyCal being a good example of this.) I'm beginning to realize how anti-consumer it is, and how urgently Apple needs to rethink its implementation. I think both customers and developers ought to steer clear of the App Store until Apple cleans up its act.
Great for dual displays
This is a great little utility for dual display setups. When I have an external monitor connected to my MBP I work primarily on that display since it is larger. This utility keeps my mouse pointer from getting lost. It also helps me hit the hot corners on side of the display that adjoins the MBP screen.
One shortcoming, and I can't tell whether it is a limitation of the software or of OSX in general, if you align the top of the two displays then you cannot hit the hot corner on that edge of the screen. Perhaps, when the tops of the two displays match OSX moves the hot corner to the end of the second display instead. I'm not quite sure. This was a minor annoyance with my 17" MBP because the resolution of its display was the same as the external monitor. Now that I have a 15" MBP the resolution is smaller and I can align the MBP display between the top and the bottom of the large display and can hit the hot corners on the primary display without issue.
It is alright, i suppose.
it is an okay fix for accidently moving your mouse to another screen, i will give it that. but is it really worth 15 dollars? No, would it be the perfect 5 to 7 dollar app? Hell yeah.
I used it for a few days so far while streaming some Steam games and it helps me keep my mouse on my screen, but i notice that it messes up my turning in game and makes it hard to look the direction of my second display is located.. to fix this i moved my virtual display location to a top corner, and use this app to keep the mouse from accidently going into said corner.
Overall, it is an okay little program, but still not worth 15 dollars, unless you plan on using it daily..
