  Hip Replacement Surgery

  by titch in

  i'm not really sure where to put this post or "thread", so i'll just put it in the physical activities area.

  i just want to know if anyone on the forum has any experience with having a hip replacement surgery done on them, or perhaps a friend or relative.

  what was your experience, if it was you?

  I've sat through the medical research side of things:

  - There is no replacement for your real original hip, a good surgeon will get it down with precision, but it does not flex the same way, does not conduct heat the same way etc.

  - If you do need it done, get a good surgeon, it may be routine, but if they cut and file too much from your leg bone you will have continuous problems. Your body does not adapt to the difference.

  - Make sure you get the latest technology, talk to your doctor. In the US metal-on-metal is no longer FDA approved, but it's still done in Europe, Canada and other socialized medicine systems because of its low cost, if you live there, you may want to consider private insurance or taking a plane ride to the US.

  Plastic likewise has issues with buildup of plastic shavings. Full ceramic is currently the gold standard and there are some carbon fiber options in development. There are also some procedures that have started using more bone-preserving procedures, this may or may not be applicable, but if your doctor doesn't know about these options, or tells you they're unnecessary, get another doctor.

  Interesting to see the numbers between the memorial attendance and active publishers is diverging. Since a lot of people that come to these are inactive/irregular (the number of "worldly people" per congregation are counted on one hand), this shows a growing number of people that have 'given up', it seems to be ~2:1 and only do this as a church/family obligation.

  Who owns the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society

  actually no one does.. i know this is a concept that can be hard for some to grasp, considering all other forms of organizations like sole proprietorship, general partnership, an llc, or a for profit corporation.

  these organizations are created legally for the simple purpose of making a profit.. but unlike a for profit corporation,---- a nonprofit corporation is formed to carry out-.

  whether that be religious, educational, charitable, scientific or other qualifying purpose.

  Here's the deal:

  A non-profit can make a profit, they just can't redistribute their profits to private individuals (so you can't have shareholders vis-a-vis you won't attract any investors), but they can make a profit, invest in things like real estate and the stock market. The only difference is that they don't pay taxes on income below the profit threshold, so if you make $1B and spend $1B you don't pay taxes, if you make $1.5B, you pay taxes on the $500M unless you re-invest them, so you can spend $500M in real-estate and 'development' and not pay any taxes.

  Most Universities are non-profits, yet they have billions in the bank for which they do not have to pay taxes. Many non-profit CEO's are in the top 100 when it comes to income so the IRS rules around reasonable renumeration are very, very lax if not non-existing, you just can't make it look like you're benefiting a private person, but you could make your CEO's and board members very wealthy or give them gifts, or provide them with room & board.

  Moreover, religious organizations are toxic to the IRS regulators, the Supreme Court has ruled that there is very little you can do without interfering in their religious tenets which is a first amendment violation. So if your religion says that your religion needs a fleet of yachts for its leaders (eg. Scientology), well, that is your first amendment right.

  @minimus: I do agree, Biden is a political chameleon though, he's whatever he needs to be to get in and keep power. He's been on every side of every issue, abortion, guns, crime, ... there was a point he was talking about how he owns a number of guns, now he wants to ban them, he was the driver behind the 1994 crime bill which he now opposes, he's against socialism during the campaign and is now embracing the socialists within his cabinet.

  Time, times and half a time - nerd time

  so, the famous 607 calculation to 1914 involves the above prophecy.

  the common explanation is that time is one unit, times is an unsubstantiated number of units.. to prove you can make it say any date, we must write it as a formula:.

  date = t + nt + 0.5t where n >= 2. so simplified:.

  @Overrated: Only when my prophecies don't come true, then 337 (the angel number for inner peace) was overlapping 336 and off course YOU must have been the one misinterpreting what the faithful and discreet mathematics said.

  Off course you shouldn't blame me for giving up your education, your career and children until then, maths is never wrong.

  To prove you can make it say any date, we must write it as a formula:

  date = t + nt + 0.5t where n >= 2

  So simplified:

  date = nt +1.5t (hyperbola) where n >=2, this also means there are MANY solutions (one in the positive and one in the negative space). For 1914, there are 16 solutions.

  If you set times to be 2, this oversimplifies it to 3.5t which seems too simple for a deity riddle.

  
  

  Now to get to predict COVID-19, 2019 -> n = 335, t =6; since 6 is imperfection in the Bible, and 336 implies peace and blessings (angel number in numerology), so 335 is just shy of that, COVID was predicted! The fact it was late in an otherwise good year, 336 (in 2019) was not complete, it was only 335, as predicted, 2019 had potential but did not quite bring the peace and blessings, and then, human imperfection (6) everyone got sick. But, I predict that 2025 will be a good year of peace and blessings for imperfect humans since 336 for n and 6 for t brings us to 2025, the year that Biden leaves office after the 2024 elections.

  “He’s Not My President “

  If the left can do it why can’t normal people do it?

  We used the same arguments but that’s quickly rebuffed by the left by saying “but that’s not what it means, what we mean is...” so why when the same techniques are used against them, is “democracy in danger”?

  Here’s what: as Hillary Clinton continued to claim until this year, Trump was not the legitimate president, using similar logic Joe Biden is not the legitimate president. If he wants to pretend, sure, but when he comes for my guns, which he will, we will have civil war.

  Anybody Here That Still Wouldn’t Take or Give Blood?

  i would think that the first thing to go for ex jws is the blood ban.

  would you take a transfusion or give blood now!.

  I can't donate blood because the Red Cross simply disqualifies everyone based on region and age, it saves them on testing blood samples.

  So if you're from a less developed country or a country with socialized healthcare or you've been in the military, or you take medications, good luck donating as the chance of having a disease such as polio or hepatitis is higher.

  This also leads me to believe that the Red Cross could have much higher rates of donations and probably doesn't need as much blood as they sometimes claim, donation drives are basically masking as blood drives.

  I think that person is a bit misinformed. Biden is publicly stating these things until January 5th.

  He already committed to defund the police - in a call with activists, he said "which I promise you, will occur." but just to hold out until after the Georgia elections because Republicans are using this to beat Democrats. https://thehill.com/homenews/529696-biden-in-leaked-audio-says-defund-the-police-being-used-to-beat-the-living-hell-out

  Over the last few days it is very clear that the media simply wants Biden to step down and Kamala to take over. Then they get their first fully-intersectional President without needing a vote.

  - They're ratcheting up the pressure on Biden over police defunding. There was a video with Biden on the call begging activists to not use those words until after January 5th - the Georgia election. He then said defunding the police "which I promise you, will occur". https://thehill.com/homenews/529696-biden-in-leaked-audio-says-defund-the-police-being-used-to-beat-the-living-hell-out

  - He said he'll develop a disease and resign https://www.air.tv/watch?v=cVDw1Cs0SzuYQSTDdBJakA now Joe Biden in the last 24h develops a cough (https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1372687/joe-biden-health-fears-coughing-speech-us-election-2020-electoral-college-latest-vn)

  - Time person of the year: https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/10/media/joe-biden-kamala-harris-time-person-of-the-year/index.html is not a person, but Joe Biden AND Kamala Harris. When did Pence get on the cover of Time? When did ANY vice president get ANY attention over the last 300 years? Only when that vice president needs to take over.

  - Obama told Biden not do this: https://www.thedailybeast.com/obama-reportedly-warned-biden-about-2020-you-dont-have-to-do-this-joe - the only reason he's doing it because his party needed a face to get elected. Biden literally is Bernie from "Weekend at Bernie's" he's just a corpse they'll wheel around.

  It is very clear, Kamala is being prepared to take over the country because the media is ran by extreme liberals and that's all they'll settle for.
