Ahhh.. tail gate = rear ending = neck injuries = $$$$ out for insurance companies.
Well, I'll let you know if I save. Seeing the blogs, other people save alot of money. 30% for our family is $400 a year. That pays for alot of vacation.

U.S. Chronic Pain Patients -- No More Pain Meds
by Lady Lee inthe american pain foundation has closed its doors due to lack of funding and a growing hostile environment towards those who suffer with chronic pain.. with deep regret and heavy hearts, we sadly inform you that due to irreparable economic circumstances, apf must cease to exist, effective immediately.
on may 3, 2012, the board of directors formally voted to dissolve the organization.. the board and staff have worked tirelessly over many months to address a significant gap between available financial resources and funds needed to remain operational.
unfortunately, the economic situation has not changed in any meaningful way, despite our best efforts.. apf hopes to be able to transfer content from various information, education, and support programs to other organizations so that you may continue to benefit from the value these programs have provided to thousands of individuals and families across the country.. your personal experiences in living with pain and seeking compassion, empathy and medical care often against the odds -- have driven our efforts over these many years.

I think the misuse of oxycontin by doctors and patients has chilled the concept of pain medicines, to the detriment of thse who need them legitimately.
Today, I know of two young women (about 20 years old) who both have very young children. One got easily on pain meds, oxy, by going to a welfare doctor who gave them to her for epidural pain. Now a year has passed and she in/out of emergency rooms trying to get more oxy. The government refuses to continue to pay for the oxy, now that she's likely addicted. Her best friend is now claiming to also have back pain from minor scoliosis and an epidural. She wants to go to the pain clinic that gave her friend the oxy. You guessed it, both are on government assistance. They both have free cell phones and gym memberships (but don't go)

I, too, rolled my eyes at the convention talks about the perils of college.
Luckily for me, both my JW parents wanted me to go to college. They entered in the late 1940s & 50s, and had seen 1975 come & go. They too didn't go to college, becuase of the WTS. I think they lost alot of faith at that point, and both took classes at the local community college. They said that I needed to make a real living, and college was my ticket. I was book smart. But, they just said that I just shouldn't say too much in the Kingdom Hall. This was 1984, back when college was a major "no, no." So, I went to school, and rarely to the Kingdom Hall. Later, they became fervent JWs. But, they still to this day see nothing wrong with college.

R.I.P." Daisy"
by smiddy inyesterday we had to make the decision to put our cat down as her health had deteriated so much in the last few months ,and especially in the last week.
many of you will know it is such a traumatic experience to go through and very painfull emotionally .. i had never considered myself a cat person , we rented a house ,double story with an outside balcony and next door had what i would describe as an umberella ?
tree ,where a cat sat, and looked over at us at the second level.. it started hanging around the front door and i said dont feed it as it will never go away.

I need some serious advice...
by confusedteenager ini'm almost a year out of high school and of course, i'm not in college.
i'm a pioneer (sigh) with little to no work experience and having a really hard time finding any work.
i want to go back to college, but it's going to be difficult now that i'm a pioneer, and my parents cannot really afford the loans that will incur should i pursue going to college.

Please talk with college counselors, ones at a state college in your area (not any private school like those on-line/Univ of Phoenix scams)
I talked with a local counselor about JW youths. She told me that youths need to tell the college counselor that they are a JW with no support from your family. They deal with kids who are in situations similar to yours. She tries to find them campus employment, housing, discounted tuition, grants/loans, etc. to help them get & stay in school.
If you want a job that is outside college, try a temporary agency. You write well. I bet some office will "snap you up." You probably have pretty good speaking and writing/reading ability (more then the average 19 year old). Remember, you are inteviewing your new potential job. Many offices I know, use temps to see if they "work out" before hiring.
Also, try USAjobs.gov for a federal job.
Yes, take those personality tests. Many are on-line.

The people at Christ's time smoked, but not tobacco. If it was such a sin, then Jesus would have said something. It may not be healthy, but its not a sin. It knock a few years off your life, but so does the blood tranfusion issue. It was banned becuase it was perceived as worldly.

There is no doubt that Adam wasn't the first man. How do believers get around that small fact?

REady for somthing totally far out, man?
I read a book, don't remember the name, but i got it somewhere in my house. It theorized that the story of Adam and Eve was taken from the beleif that we humans and animals were once part of the plant world. Eve was, for lack of better memory, like a plant graft from Adam.. . . it went on from there. This is part of the underworld/illuminatu type thinking.
