I sometimes see an extra commentary box which has different functions than the one we're using (IE and Firefox). Is there going to be a different commentary box?

Site Updates
by Simon injust a heads-up that i will be testing some updates this evening.. the nature of the changes means it's difficult to test every scenario in advance offline (translation: it's a lot more effort and i just can't be bothered) so i'm going to go with the "wing-it" approach:.
deploy, check for errors, try to fix errors before anyone else notices them.. i can switch between the new and old version pretty quickly so if there are significant issues, i'll rollback and revert the changes while i work on the fixes.
worse case is the pages won't display quite right (dates might be a giveaway) but a full page refresh should fix things.. http://www.refreshyourcache.com/en/home/.

FWIW -- Anonymous suggests North Korea will start WWIII before the end of this year
by kpop ini know most of you don't know what anonymous is or what the real 4chan is, but both are saying that their global meta data is pointing that now with south korean elections going to a pro war candidate (moon, who is a psycho) and china saying there may be no other solution, north korea will strike first before the end of this year.
japan has called up reserves.
take it with a grain of salt.

@kpop. I disagree that North Korea can bring about a nuclear war - I'm assuming between the United States and Russia - since it's only ally, China, has neither the desire nor enough nukes to engage in a meaningful first strike.

Such security will give them the illusion of persecution. We evil 'apostates' are out to kill them.

I live in a small house, we've just been under our stairs (storage place) and pulled out decades of bound volumes. I'm all for throwing them away but my husband says keep them. But why? I'm not going to use them again - ever. So bit by bit I'm throwing them away but I'm keeping my pink paradise book.
!!!!!!!!!!DON'T!!!!!!!!!! Give them away to one of us. We'll gladly take them off your hands. I'd offer to buy them but I've got no money.

Jp1692,
Wikipedia is not a reliable source
Wikipedia is as good (or bad) as its primary sources cited in its footnotes.

schnufti," I'm currently cleaning up our bookcase and need to decide what goes into the trash."
Don't trash whatever you've got! Box them and offer them to anyone who would like them. Have them pay the postage and I'm sure they'll be gone before you can say apostate.

I read the book and saw the movie starring Robert Duvall (As the general.). The movie's ending was better than the book [removed]
As for impacting the JWs I doubt it since the premise of the book - mass sterility and surrogate mother slavery - has no equivalence in our times.

If you got books from the 1960s and before keep them! I sold all my old (1950s) books to a brother for $5 bucks. I wish I had not.
I kept the Aid to Bible Understanding; the Concordance; the Large print bible and a couple of others including the red 'pocket' version.
I also have a 1950s book - title forgotten, which is a Jewel. It has a massive contradiction within the book itself where in one page it says that Charles Russell never had a biography made of him but, a few pages later, has an image of his biography book!
