cult novelist writes about...........cults !
by wobble inthe novelist and essayist haruki murakami wrote quite a bit, based on interviews he did with survivors and cult members, about the aum sect, who released deadly sarin nerve-gas on the tokyo subway in 1995. his interviews and his thoughts appeared in english in the book "underground".. he promised to return to the matter of cults in his fiction, which he has done in his latest work, iq84.. in it appear two cults, one is "aum like", with a very sinister leader, the other is a christian sect whose pamphleteering members refuse life-saving surgery and is called "the society of witnesses", i wonder who inspired the latter one ?.

Victoria, Australia: Report on Oct. 11th hearing involving Steven Unthank
by AndersonsInfo invictoria, australia: report on oct. 11th hearing involving steven unthank.
(this report is from an anonymous xjw who attended the hearing.
i had no plans to turn up to the court hearing as an observer, as in my experience, it can take several hearings and a number of months before any court case gets rolling.

Actually, finally wasn't far off... there is an acronym for schematic design... but it's SD...then there's DD...design development... and CD... construction documents... all describing the design phases of a project.

ILT = Intragal Light Technology
SDL = Simulated Divided Light
CSI = Construction Specifications Institute
BSA = Boston Society of Architects

In my industry there are a million of them

I saw The Blob (1958 version) at my friend's house who lived next door. I think I was about 10 or 11. I wasn't allowed to watch horror movies, but my parents were'nt there...so I watched...and was sooooo terrified...lol. When it was over, it was dark outside, and I ran home soooo fast!

Wonderful news about Ali....and something to warm your heart
by coffee_black inas i have posted, my daughter ali has been in the cardiac intensive care unit since thursday.
her bp, heartrate and blood sugar went sky high, due to horrible coughing spells from a chest cold that left her gasping for air.. she has congestive heart failure, and has been treated for almost a year now.
she has improved over that year, but this was a real setback.. ali called me today with amazing news.

She has congestive heart failure, and has been treated for almost a year now. She has improved over that year, but this was a real setback.
Ali called me today with amazing news. She is no longer in CICU, but in a regular room. (this happened a couple of days ago) She will be released in a couple of days. Through all of this, her Ejection fraction has actually gone up. She does have a tiny leak in a valve, but the dr. told her that as her heart improves....and becomes less enlarged, it will not be as streached as it is now... and may actually improve over time on its own.
The best news is this...and here it is in Ali's own words...posted on facebook just a little while ago.
"Best news ever! My cardiologist just came in and is going to see me for free for the next two years, since he doesn't accept Medicaid and Medicare wont kick in for two years. Especially since there are no specialists that accept medicaid. I love this man. He is my angel!!!! May his life be rich in blessings for helping lil ole me be around for my kids. Dr J. I love you!!! When I got sick I had great insurance but after having to quit working I got Medicaid which in reality is like having no insurance. My cost of care yearly is extremely high, this is such a generous and kind thing to do."
Ali is on disability because of her heart condition.
