Israel planted explosives in Hezbollah's Taiwan-made pagers, sources say - https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-planted-explosives-hezbollahs-taiwan-made-pagers-sources-say-2024-09-18/

I use this instruction all the time. Think about it, know it backwards and forward. Know why the wrong ideas are wrong. When you know the material this well you have a feeling of rightness. Then you ask God for confirmation. There have been many studies of the composition of the book of mormon. I like the word count and tone studies that prove the BoM has multiple authors. I also like that there are 4 formal versions, and like 5 more second hand versions of the first vision. But only one Book of Mormon. Think about it.

not gonna post due to graphic nature.

the injuries. Mangled hands, gouging wounds. There are videos circulating.

These look like pipe bomb injuries, which I have treated in the past.

From Aljazeera

If you read the i24 link I embedded above it shows a video of the device going off. Looks pretty rough. I assume the 8 casualties were from some of the Hezbollah operatives checking the text and sustaining head wounds.

Reporters are useless. They used to have ethics and did investigative reporting. Haven't seen it in years… I used to have a dumb pager 15 years ago. Cant get them anymore. Everything is smart now. Alphanumeric pagers probably have better computer electronics than what we had on Apollo 9. If they all went off at the same time it was planned. No one wants to wear a device that can blow your pelvic rim off. I assume it was someone that wanted to do harm.

i bet that they are phones not pagers and israel rigged them with post-market modified batteries. Then sold them as a phone upgrade package on the cheap. Nice piece of software to have them all go off at the same time. I wonder what was in the text message…

Yup, I was in a telescope forum awhile back. Everyone was super helpful. But don’t talk about politics or religion!

Well, the young lady took a fresh stick of butter and instead of unwrapping it and placing it on a butter dish (which was available). She partially unwrapped it letting some of the butter lie directly upon the soapstone countertop. Then instead of using the knife as intended to remove a square pad and then spread that pad on the English muffin, acting like a serial killer, she used the knife as a scoop and repeatedly scooped wedges off of one end of the stick of butter deforming it and then spreading the butter on the muffin. When you deform the stick of butter as shown above, you get debris all over the stick and expose a greater surface area of the butter to the environment leading to oxidation and spoilage. There was no consideration for anyone else that might have wanted to use the butter in the future. And she likely did not clean the butter off the soapstone. I'm sure my daughter did though. I was very pleased that my daughter knew I would be irritated. And you can see that my family members were equally horrified.

Nah, I’ll finally learn how to use a fountain pen and we will become pen pals.

Yup, I’ve noticed the decline. I’m OK with a small group. This is the only social media I do besides family chat. It’s cozy. I’d probably get death threats if I posted on something like Facebook. And sometimes I use y’all as a sounding board for my thoughts / presentation. D&C 18:15 And if it so be that you should labor all your days in crying repentance unto this people, and bring, save it be one soul unto me, how great shall be your joy with him in the kingdom of my Father! I have always interpreted the above one soul as ones self. Even if the only person that I have reached is myself, I have accomplished something. And perhaps, 16 And now, if your joy will be great with one soul that you have brought unto me into the kingdom of my Father, how great will be your joy if you should bring many souls unto me! Believe it or not, but this site has helped my personal scripture study.
