Still doesn't explain how people that have OBE's also describe things going on around them, with they're eyes closed, one person is heardly a realy scientific experment. Whoever published this was an idiot, one person does not make a study.

Near Death experiences- the scoop by CNN
by kelsey007 inap) --
a study suggests the oft-reported sensation of leaving the body during a brush with death may have a simple explanation in the body itself.. these "out-of-body" and "near-death" experiences -- in which people resuscitated on the operating table speak of being drawn toward a brilliant light, or looking down on their own bodies -- may be influenced by a portion of the brain misfiring under stress, the study suggests.
the paper describes one patient's visions while she was being evaluated for epilepsy and does not wrestle with issues of the soul.

Sounds like a classic case of paranoid schitzophrenia to me. Let's home these kind of bizzaro people don't try to latch on to the silentlambs movement.

The Twilight Zone
by Swan intonight on the new and updated twilight zone on upn they had an episode that reminded me of what it was like to be in a cult.
it was about a teenage girl whose parents moved her and her sister into a gated community separated from the outside world.
everyone was forced to dress the same.

Make that over a year ago.
May 25, 2001 - The Custodial Agent (a subsidiary of Key Bank) was approved by Court. Settlement funds were deposited by Microsoft and conservatively invested by the Custodial Agent under guidelines approved by Court. Interest will accrue to the Fund, will be used to pay costs of administration, and earnings after costs of claim administration will be added pro rata to class members' settlement distributions.
This is what were are waiting on.
- Oct./Nov. 2002 - Supreme Court will decide whether to grant writ of certiorari. If certiorari is denied, the case is concluded.
- September 2002 - Response to petition for writ of certiorari due.
- August 13, 2002 - Two objectors, Lesley Stuart and Donna Vizcaino, filed a petition for writ of certiorari in the U.S. Supreme Court to seek review of the Ninth Circuit decision.

Uh try again, it's about 30%, and it just got out of litigation, now the company that is managing it, has to send out claim forms. Also the case was settled over a year ago, and the money has been sitting getting interest, because one of the main class members fought the settlement. However since this is only local to Washington State, and only temps that worked at microsoft for over 6 months are elegable for the class. Plus some temps have been hired perm, and have opted out of the class. Even at 2000 that's still around 32k apiece.

If the case won't be taken pro bono, then there is no point in persuing it, because the lawyer doesn't believe the case is truley winable. Most good lawyers, at least in the states, will take a case pro bono, for a cut of what is taken, if they think the case is winable. I was just part of a class action lawsuit against microsoft that was settled for 92 Million dollars.

Room Bids at Bethel
by Black Man inany bethelites remember the rite-of-passage for bethelites, bidding on rooms.
for new-boys that basically translated into moving from one 5 x 5 room to the next (unless you started pioneering at the age of 9).
for senior bethelite members, you're basically lickin' your chops because all those years of seniority can be used to obtain a room with a ...............bathroom.

Ok I'm having a hard time with the 5 x 5 room size, are you telling me that all the brothers at bethel are less then 5 foot tall? I guess I would have never made it there, I'm 6' 1" .
