He was a wealthy man and had no will
changed his will 3 or 4 times, so we are just saying there is no will so it passes to ...
You will need a hell of a lot more than scriptures or biblical stories when they discover your calculated theft by deception. (Discussed on a public message board, no less.)~Sue

About
"Indeed, I am very glad that I finally am returning home" is a Soviet-era pop song composed by Arkady Ostrovsky, performed by Edward Hill (or Eduard Khil), a nationally-honored Russian singer since the late 1960s. Due to much exploitable elements of the music video, it has recently gained momentum as a popular bait-and-switch video, in similar vein to the more notorious usage of Rickroll.Singing in the video is Edward Anatolevich Hill, a Soviet-era vocalist once celebrated as the “Honored Artist of the USSR” in 1968 and “People’s Artist of the USSR” in 1974.
Because Edward’s performance was poorly lipsynched (albeit to his own vocal track) and entirely composed of mouth music without any lyrics, the song was perceived by some westerners as highly eccentric. One of the surreal moments comes in at the chorus part, during which Edward can be heard singing “LOL” over and over again—as though he’s laughing directly at the viewer.
Of course, this is just a comical misinterpretation of him singing “Tro-lo-lo.” In fact, the song still remains quite familiar to the older Russian audiences; the Sovie Azerbaijani singer Muslim Magomaev had previously sung it in the 1960s Soviet television show The Blue Spark:

Additionally, there is an even earlier version of the song, sung by Valery Obodzinsky in 1967.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHf9BJdgdBo
It’s sung in a style called “vokaliz,” a cognate of the English “vocalise” or vocal exercise. Vokaliz is not, however, a vocal exercise but a style of singing similar to pantomime or even American scat singing of the 1920s. -

Family Bible
by PSacramento inmy wife wants me to get a nice family bible for us.. i have interlinears and study bibles but she wants a "simple one", lol !.
i know which types she wants - harcover, with a lacth, beautiful old drawings, the kind that i h ave to sell a kidney to get !.
i think that i would like a nice hardcover, leather one, i don't know the difference between genuine and bonded leather.. i would like some nice illustrations, i always find those old time black and white drawings in some older bible so beautiful.. i think a niv verison is good for the whole family ( easy to read and understand) and those with a thumb index would be great too !.

That's a good laundry list, but I'm not sure any publisher could hit all points today.
The first thing that comes to mind is my mother's 1960's Jerusalem Bible, beautifully printed and bound with embossed covers. Also for the thumb indexes (indices?). This is the edition I grew up with beside our greenback NWTs. Always LOVED it, the bridge between us being outlaw JW's and our family history as Roman Catholics.
The illustrations you describe are typically engravings from the artist Gustave Doré, that alone should aid your search.

questions from readers.
in the case of where a father or mother or son or daughter is disfellowshiped, how should such person be treated by members of the family in their family relationship?p.c., ontario, canada.. we are not living today among theocratic nations where such members of our fleshly family relationship could be exterminated for apostasy from god and his theocratic organization, as was possible and was ordered in the nation of israel in the wilderness of sinai and in the land of palestine.

Thanks for the emphasis, it reminds me of Red Letter Bible editions. This article is the flipside: All threats and damnation!

Why is there a need for Ministry School presentations?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inwe were told that the preaching work was lead and guided by ''angels'' and the holy spirit.. if that is so,why the need for magazine presentations week after week?
why is a half hour spent showing each member what to say and how to respond to certain questions?
why practice presentations when the angels and holy spirit are there to help?.

Education is part of how they maintain their tax-free charitable status, and maintain eligibility for $ as an NGO. Ditto as a Human Rights organization. This is how they can slither in and grow new victims even if governments reject their bogus religious agenda.
