DireTV has it too.

Sometimes mistakes are made in entering that data. I go to the same ward as my parents. One year the financial clerk regularly got confused as to which one of us had given them money. Most of tithing settlement consists of small talk and visiting. The actual meat of it is the bishop asking you to review the record he gives you to be sure it looks accurate. Then he asks you if it's a full tithing. That's about it. The longest part of the actual meat is you doublechecking their records against (hopefully) your own.

Nope, just the ones that commit acts of piracy. If most of their pirates don't come back, it will eventually stop.

I always liked the idea of sending out ships armed to the teeth but disguised to look like cargo ships. Do things to deliberately draw out the pirates. Maybe have a nice attack submarine hanging out nearby. Then when the pirates attack, eliminate them.

I usually like to hit the Garden Restaurant, or The Roof (If I can ever afford it) Both are on the top floor of the Joseph Smith building.

Well, there was this time in sacrament meeting. I was about three. I'm pretty sure someone was saying a prayer, but I don't know if it was the opening or closing. It may have even been a talk, I was a little fuzzy on what was a talk and what was a prayer at the time. Anyway. During the prayer, I smelled something. It was rank. I of course decided that my father had done it, and blurted out (in the middle of the prayer mind you) "DADDY FARTED." Of course to make matters worse, it wasn't him.

You hope they do. You do have to be careful. Sometimes anti-depressants have an opposite effect. That's why you generally try a few until things start working right. Some can cause suicidal thoughts, and yes I do have some personal experience in that.

I would say it depends on the exact position and how the antidepressants affect you. Some have very little effect perceptible to someone observing you, others really mess you up. You might try explaining that you are needing to go some medication (leaving out which one) and you might need some time to figure out how it affects you. Of course that wouldn't work with my bishop since he's also my pharmacist, and already knows what meds I'm on, but that's not exactly the norm.

Both. There is no correlation between the two of them. If they were mutually exclusive there would be an inverse correlation between them.

Actually I would say that education has very little to do with intelligence. That was kind of my point. Here was someone allegedly educated, and could quote back the right "facts" to get a degree, but no thought outside those narrow constraints was possible. She couldn't take principles and abstract them to anything else. It was memorize and regurgitate. This is not intelligence.

I have to disagree with many, many members here. Being able to meet my spouse as an intellectual equal is of vital importance to me. Kindness and intelligence are NOT mutually exclusive, there is no correlation between the two. The first thing that attracted me to my wife and I was that we could have an intelligent conversation. Intelligent conversation isn't just understanding details of science, but having the logical, reasoning and learning skills to be able to assimilate sufficient sufficient information to converse about something with minimal explanation. I was lucky in that my wife is every bit my equal in intelligence. I had dated a couple of girls previously who were difficult to even talk to because I had to take my conversation level so far down as to feel as if I were talking to children. When you're dating someone graduating with a degree in History in a couple of months, and they can't keep up in a conversation about history, you have to wonder, particularly when you've only had the minimum number of history courses and don't really make history even a subject of casual study. And yes that did happen to me. To the OP however, you've made decisions that you will have to live with now. My guess is that in the Celestial Kingdom there won't be that much difference between you in intelligence. Until then, find someone with whom you can have such conversations, someone with whom no romantic involvement could ever happen, such as a relative of the same gender or something. Find things to love and admire about your wife.

There's a big difference between being drafted into the German army (not automatically part of the Nazi party) and willfully joining the Nazi party. There's also a big difference between joining a movement because you agree with it and playing along because you don't want to disappear in the night like your neighbors did. By the way, while I do see some vague parallels between the modern U.S.Democrat party and the National Socialist German Worker's party, we're comparing molehills to mountains at this point. Yes abortion is bad. It is murder. Those who support it are evil. It is something people can (at least for now) choose not to do. 1940's Germany took over everything for the good of the party. I said it when Bush was president and I'll say it under Obama (who I despise as a human being). Anyone that compares either one to Hitler should be sentenced to living in Nazi Germany as an ethnic Jew converted to Jehovah's Wiriness who was a writer critical of the Nazi ideal prior to their rise to power, and is suspected by the state of being a Homosexual, maybe even with some attribute that would attract the interest of Dr Dr Mengele. I have a feeling that someone in that situation would change his mind rather rapidly. Yes, things are going bad, but can we do away with the hyperbole?

It would be an empty post.

While there's a lot of good stuff there, perhaps even proportionally more than any other volume of scripture, it IS only 61 pages long, and as such isn't going to be referred to as often as more voluminous works.

There must be a story behind that.... Particularly of interest to me since I'm about to do just that.

The state university I went to went to great lengths to assure that spring break did not coincide with Easter because someone might then call it "Easter break", and that would "obviously" be a violation of separation of church and state. One young girl several years ago was expelled from her grade school on "separation of church and state" grounds for wanting to say grace over her food in the lunch room and asking her friend to join her.

I'm not exactly a fan of social media, and don't use it, but in general you should assume that anything you post anywhere online can be read by anyone. In this case, given the security settings described for facebook, all it would take is for someone to quote your reply in a reply of their own, and suddenly it's readable to people you didn't intend. If you must reply to her, do so via personal email or other private communication method.

I'm actually a little concerned about this "surge" and all the expansion being done to accommodate it. It seems to me that we're seeing a vast increase in the number of people going on missions now because a lot who would have had to wait can now put in papers. Once this all shakes out approximately the same number will be entering the pipeline as before, they'll just be entering it earlier, and there won't be the numbers to support all the increased activity.

The bishop might say something about it too. I'm pretty sure most bishops I've had wouldn't go for such a thing.

My understanding is that it happened at night. That would have required waking boys up, evacuating the area, getting a tranquilizer gun and someone to use it into the camp, tracking the bear, shooting it with the tranquilizer, waiting for the bear to go under (sometimes several minutes, during which time the bear often becomes more aggressive), tracking the bear again to find it, dragging the several hundred pound bear to a place where it can be put into a cage and put onto a vehicle, where you then have to lift the bear into the cage and potentially onto the vehicle. Unfortunately such is not feasible. The general way to relocate a bear is to bait it into a cage trap on a trailer. Once it's caught you move it and let it go. That isn't an option where there is imminent danger. You eliminate the danger, plain and simple.

You're saying you want to criminally charge someone who was likely not involved in causing the problem for protecting people who didn't cause the problem??? Please explain to me the logic or justice to this

The comments on the article made my sick. Apparently, according to some "people" we should let someone not involved in causing the problem get killed to save some poor bear. Yes some scouts left things out they shouldn't have, apparently now we have to evacuate 500 scouts in the middle of the night so the the state (the god of liberalism) can swoop in and save everyone including the bear. The idiocy boggles the mind. The leader did the correct thing, and the thought that there is even an instants consideration of prosecution of the leader is nauseating and enraging.

This means that if a marriage performed in Califormia is recognized in Califormia the other 50 states have to recognize it as well.

The folding of hands or more classic pressing of hands is actually a more recent affectation within Christianity. The pretzel was allegedly invented by monks as a reward for children who learned their prayers. The shape supposedly represented the shape of folded arms. In the intervening centuries, the manner of prayer went from folded arms to pressed hands.
