girl hit by puck at nhl game dies .
columbus, ohio (ap) - seconds after being hit by a puck as she watched an nhl game, 13-year-old brittanie cecil held a jacket to her head to staunch the bleeding and walked to an exit.. two days later she was dead, the first such fan fatality and one of the few at an american sports event, other than auto racing, directly related to action on the field.. an eighth grader at twin valley south middle school near dayton, brittanie would have turned 14 on wednesday.. the girl was struck in the head by a shot early in the second period of saturday night's game between the columbus blue jackets and calgary flames at nationwide arena.. columbus center espen knutsen's slap shot from the top of the left circle appeared to be deflected by a defenseman, with the puck flying over the high glass at the west end of the ice.
it appeared to glance off another spectator and hit the teen in the left temple, witnesses said.. arena officials and medical personnel immediately approached the girl and helped her out of her seat - some 15 rows above the ice - and up the steps to the exit.. hospital officials would not disclose the cause of her death monday night and relatives declined comment.

This is so sad,as I have attended many games here in Toronto I often wonder if I would bring my children to a game. As a goalie I have taken many blows to the head,one even cracking my helmut in half. I also walk around most of the season bruised up from pucks hitting me so I am aware how much of a danger this is. When your in the stands you can`t take your eye off the puck like the players.

Do you shun former members?
Those who simply cease to be involved in the faith are not shunned. In compliance with the Scriptures, however, members can be expelled for serious unchristian conduct, such as stealing, drunkenness, or adultery, if they do not repent and cease such actions. Disfellowshipping does not sever family ties. Disfellowshipped members may continue to attend religious services, and if they wish, they may receive pastoral visits. They are always welcome to return to the faith.—1 Corinthians 5:11-13.

do you believe that two people are just meant to be, no matter the circumstances involved, or the differences that keep them apart?
this has been a question that i have been living with for some time.
actually, i guess it's been what i have been living for--the dogma, i guess, i'll call it, that i have hoping for: "if two people are meant to be together, they will find their way back to one another.".
Your Hall then mine and everyone in between!

i've read over the past months that jws are not wealthy.
however, i wonder if those that are wealthy, are they in a high position like elders, ms, co, do, bethelites?.
since i know of one here at work who does have yearly travel vacations to locales like las vegas, europe and the caribean.
I don`t think that this is the case in most situations,we had elders that were not wealty and lived in apartments. I am sure that some are in these positions because of there stature though.
