I live in the area, and I see Kingdom Support Services trucks in the vicinity of the Warwick property from time to time. So something is going on there, though I believe they are supposed to be in the permit process for new construction. I believe there are already some existing buildings on the property, so maybe they are doing renovations on those, or perhaps it's mainly surveying and other pre-construction activities going on at this time. I have friends who live within a mile or so of the property, as the crow flies, and they were out of electricity for almost 2 weeks after Hurricane Sandy (at my house, about 15 minutes away, we were without power for only 5 days, but we live very near a high school), so I'd imagine the situation might have been the same at the Watchtower property.

are they already working on the new buildings at warwick, ny?
by Richard_I ini noticed on the news part of jw.org, they mentioned this comment:.
"there were power outages at the branch office facilities in patterson and wallkill, new york, and these facilities ran temporarily on generator power; however, the warwick facility is still operating on generator power.
the storm also disrupted telecommunications services at these facilities.".

Vatican: Priests, bishops should wear cassocks
by Sol Reform ininstead of requesting bishops, priests and religious to wear the formal long robes of a cassock when visiting rome, would not the vatican be better served by requesting all of the above to just go meat free the next year or so?.

Reminds me of the fact that the Watchtower actually publishes a brochure to instruct JWs how to dress when they visit Bethel.

Oh, re-reading it, you were referring to the drums as not being assertive enough? Interesting, maybe we will need to do some more work...

I'm curious what you guys mean by "assertiveness." Are you referring to the vocal? I've been giving some thought to re-doing the vocal on the first two verses. I thought the instrumentation was awesome (which was Scott, not me), but I'm not at my strongest vocally doing rock music, I'm more of a folkie (as you will see if we get the other song we are working on finished).

Now that the Storm is over in the Northeast,
by ldrnomo incan we hear from any of you that went through it?.
do you have power yet?.
are you staying with friends?.

We are in northern NJ, and we were without power (and thus without heat and running water) for 5 days after the storm. Electricity came back on early last Sunday morning, but we just got internet access back this morning. We still have no landline phone, only our cell phones. We are not nearly as bad off as many, friends elsewhere in town only got power back within the last day or so. The second storm was no issue; we got about 2" of snow from it, which has already melted. Things are slowly getting back to normal, and it wasn't as bad for us as for those in coastal areas.

We're across the river in New Jersey, and so far it's just raining with (mostly) light wind. But both do seem to be slowly increasing in intensity. We've hunkered in the house and have no intention of going anywhere till at least Wednesday.
