I saw 1900 house and frontier as well. That lady from Virginia was VERY annoying! She tried to boss everyone around. I think the 2 girls (the daughter and the niece) from the rich family came away with the most from the experience. They starting out HATING it but eventually the work seemed to give them a purpose and they felt a part of something. After they got home to all their fancy surroundings and new house they seemed at a loss as to what to do!

I LOVE that show!! I also watch Changing Rooms and Ground Force on BBC America :)Ty Pennington on Trading spaces is acomplete cutie pie (much cuter than Changing Room's Handy Andy! LOL) I agree that Vern's designs are the best on Trading spaces...very classy. Frank's are ok sometimes, but he very often uses pastel shades which I don't care for. I usually HATE Laurie Hickson Smiths. And did I mention Ty is a hottie? LOL!

Preparation for Dateline & online interest

by Kismet in

dateline is just 24 hours (give or take) away.

i really do expect to see a great deal of online activity as people search for more information.

jwd is likely going to be one of the most visited due to the large amount of information posted here on the subject, much by silentlambs themselves.. i also expect to see people visiting randy's excellent site as well as watchtower observer for copies of documentation,news articles, etc.

6000 years of human rule??...HAHAHA.

by refiners fire in

now the story goes that god has abandoned humanity to "self rule" for a period of six thousand years.

correct me if im wrong.. now during this time, mankind is supposedly left to rule itself, and fail miserably, thus demonstrating that only theocratic rule can maintain peace, bliss and happiness.. well, i think gods cheated.. in my humble (satanic) opinion, if man is supposedly ruling himself, the god shouldnt be interfering and moulding events.. a big example:.

the tower of babel.. the folk there were working in unity on a project and god decided to .

What I want to know too, if everything in the bible was of such earth shattering importance and all of our lives, nay our very eternal souls depended on this information...dontcha think that God would make sure that nothing would be lost in the translation? That there would be no having to go back and look at the original languages...I mean after all God wouldn't allow his one only true book to be messed up through the millenia. Would he/she? But is has! Things have been lost from the original languages and the reason why is because IT'S ONLY A BOOK! NAY, A READERS DIGEST COMPILATION! Half history, half myth, with some good advice sprinkled here and there, but also a lot of scary crap, threats and a whole hell of a lot of violence. I have come to the same conclusion as Walt Whitman as noted in the quote below where he states "..dismiss what insults your very soul" Well that would be about 3/4 of the book that many consider to be the only true words of God. Glad the God I believe in isn't QUITE so manic.

Panic Attacks? It's Probably Only Your Heart...

by Englishman in

if you suffer from anxiety and panics, the problem could lie with your heart and not with your mind.. you might have mitral valve syndrome!http://www.mvpsupport.com/.

i know what im talking about because i have mitral valve syndrome.

years ago, i would sometimes become totally panic stricken for no reason whatsoever.

betweenworlds

Hey E-man thanks for the article.

Lisa, I had a similar thing happen to me while I was pregnant. I had mitral valve prolapse diagnosed while I was in my teens and I never really had to much trouble (occasional heart racing, and flipping) But when I got pregnant with twins my heart went crazy! It would race close to 200 beats per minute sometimes. I was already in the hospital because they hospitalized me at 25 weeks as my twins were a high risk pregnancy due to being monoamniotic, so they had the cardiologists come in and put a monitor on my heart and do echocardiograms, etc. To make a long story short they couldn't figure out what the heck was going on lol! I had more trouble after the boys were born as well with huge palpitations and tachycardia and after a lot of workups it was finally decided they weren't *the dangerous kind* thanks heavens! Scary awful feeling none the less. Haven't had any symptoms in quite some time. It seems to be getting better the older I get....Hope it stays that way :-)
