"Make America hate again"
by MarkofCane in“trump is predicting he’ll be able to do all these things, but his workload will be pretty enormous and his power would be so limited by precedent, by the bureaucracy, by the constitution,” said robert dallek, a presidential historian.
“even in trade and immigration, where trump says he will make revolutionary changes, congress has a say on those things.
a lot of people have a say.

Hey, Sophia’s mommy was drawing too. Anyone notice?
Logos for “Orange Yarn Productions”.
Orange, as in Orange County, NY. Location of Warwick HQ.
Yarn, as in “a long or rambling story, especially one that is implausible.”
An inside joke? -

I didn't see any hate. What did I miss?
The (implied) gay man who can’t get through Jehovah’s security gate is equated with being a terrorist. It’s as if he has a weapon of mass destruction in his carry-on bag.
Later, he reads the Bible, throws down his homosexual terrorist carry-on bag, and leaps through the security gate into Paradise. Beyond the gate two little boys are swimming.
Don’t you see? If gay people would just read the Bible, Witness children would finally be safe.
There’s a another disturbing aspect to this. Caleb has no face.
Sophia is so focused on herself and her model-perfect Witnoid parents that she left out a MALE.
What happens when little girls consider their personal happiness? What happens when we leave out the males?A female-only world with bad gay mommies, that’s what!
So, little girls, focus on the MALES, obey the men in Jehovah’s Manly arrangement. He knows what's best for us.
What a mess. -

His real name was "Prance.”
His producers changed it in case audiences thought he was gay.

UN Library again... The "NGO Resource Center"
by AntiEntropy inas we know, there were at least 2 ways to enter the un ngo bldg : 'ground pass' and 'library pass'.
and the 'ground pass' matters was dealt by many posts in old times.
basically, the policy of 'library pass' had not been chaged before 9.11 as we read.. however, some pro-jws have been insisting that it was not the un ngo bldg.

I could make sure that "NGO Resource Center" moved once and it is not in the NGO Bldg. now but I can't find when it moved.
Link here.
UNITAR stands for United Nations Institute for Training and Research. -

Update - Talk # 6 THE FLOOD OF NOAH’S DAY AND YOU
by ttdtt ininstead of scraping this talk they updated it.. so they still try and make this look like it happened, and that there is plenty of evidence.to do that they refer to the (w08 6/1 8) found at http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/2008411the main evidence is that floods have happened in the past, including.... geologists studying the landscape of the northwestern united states believe that as many as 100 ancient catastrophic floods once washed over the area.
one such flood is said to have roared through the region with a wall of water 2,000 feet [600 m] high, traveling at 65 miles an hour [105 km/hr]—a flood of 500 cubic miles [2,000 cu km] of water, weighing more than two trillion tons.
similar findings have led other scientists to believe that a global flood is a distinct possibility.. i could not find such an event, except for remembering one of those "disaster" shows on discover about that.

The shallow Bethelite writers’ problem is that the Missoula Ice Age floods (plural) were due to ice dams collapsing.
There are absolutely no “similar findings” connecting Missoula to the Biblical narrative where it rained for 40 days and nights, the flat earth’s climate was blissfully warm, and all was covered by a permanent water canopy.
Similar findings have led other scientists to believe that a global flood is a distinct possibility.
Those Young Earth Creationist “other scientists” can be found cross-quoting each other’s easily debunked pseudoscience “findings” @ Creation Ministries International (formerly Answers in Genesis) and Biblical Geology. -

The lying pen of the scribes is at it again (Jeremiah 8:8).
“One such flood” is actually Glacial Lake Missoula.
From the U.S. Geological Survey:
Missoula Floods: With the beginning of the Pleistocene time, about one million years ago, cooling temperatures provided conditions favorable for the creation of great sheets of moving ice. Thus began the Ice Age. At the end of the last Ice Age, a finger of the Cordilleran ice sheet crept southward into the Idaho panhandle, forming a large ice dam that blocked the mouth of the Clark Fork River, creating a massive lake 2,000 feet deep and containing more than 500 cubic miles of water. Glacial Lake Missoula stretched eastward for some 200 miles and contained more water than Lake Erie and Lake Ontario combined. When the highest of these ice dams failed, lake water burst through, shooting out at a rate 10 times the combined flow of all the rivers of the world. This towering mass of water and ice literally shook the ground as it thundered toward the Pacific Ocean, stripping away hundreds of feet of soil and cutting deep canyons -- "coulees" -- into the underlying bedrock. With flood speeds approaching 65 miles per hour, the lake would have drained in as little as 48 hours. Over time the Cordilleran ice sheet continued moving south and blocked the Clark Fork River again and again, recreating Glacial Lake Missoula. Over approximately 2,500 years, the lake, ice dam and flooding sequence was repeated dozens of times, leaving a lasting mark on the landscape.
From NOVA, Mystery of the Megaflood: “From these new findings we can reconstruct just how Glacial Lake Missoula sent two and a half trillion tons of water, nearly half of Lake Michigan, surging across the American northwest.” -

Have you tried WorldCat.org for a hardcopy in your area? You can search by zip code and your local reference librarian or university may be able to get their hands on it for you.
They list at least two versions:
Author: C T Russell
Publisher: Brooklyn [N.Y.] : International Bible Students Association, ©1917.
Author: C T Russell; Clayton J Woodworth; George H Fisher
Publisher: Brooklyn : International Bible Students Association, 1918.You could also try a more generic search for “Studies in the Scriptures”. It was number 7 in the series.
Good luck!
