Satellites are so good now that archeologists don't even have to go digging around. They can see these things from space.

CAN YOU BE AN 'APOSTATE' IF YOU WERE NEVER BAPTIZED?
by Mary inthis subject came up with a friend of mine on facebook the other day.
he was never officially baptized as a witness and i believe he is now a born again christian.. does crooklyn consider someone an 'apostate' if you were never actually a full-fledged member but ended up leaving?
or are you just considered 'bad association'??

Any fellow writer's or copyright lawyer's on here?
by Newly Enlightened ini've run into a problem and have some questions..... i'm sure most of you have seen the video on jwstruggle's youtube channel regarding my book i wrote in 2002 and the problem with the elders on getting it published.
well after my contract ran out in 2003, i retained all the rights and they told me that all left over copies would be destroyed except the few legal copies being sold on amazon, barnes & noble, alibris, etc.. so, because of the video someone asked about my book and i said that it was no longer available, they wrote back and told me it's all over the internet.. come to find out, a large canadian publisher bought out my original publisher in 2007 and 'accidently' downloaded the original file onto their computers and started selling my book [hard copies & digital] without a contract.. my question is, anyone know what the going asking price for a quiet settlement is for this type of thing?.
i know i'm not dan brown or clive cussler and probably won't get millions, but i don't want to get short-changed either.. thanks.

i know it. They'll probably just tell me "Oh we didn't sell any".
That's the story of my life.

Good points all of you. I will keep you posted. I feel like my life is a big circus with Clowns [Elders], Pirates [Publishers] and one disaster after another.
The end of May to the 1 st week of June is usually bad.
Yeah, the president of the publishing co. called me himself and apologized and he was supposed to find out how many digital copies they sold and get back to me, but I haven't heard anything.

by AndersonsInfo inno, charles taze russell was not a pennsylvania freemason!.

"after a search of our records, we determined that the three russell's were not members of our organization.

I met with a 32 degree Freemason, in current standing with the lodge, he was their grand master and has done several decades of research in their library. And was told personally , that until you get to the 33 rd degree you do not know what is above that degree, there could be a 1,000 degrees. There is a super secret elite group above 33 degrees that are known as the 'Elite-ists" The lower Mason's are not even aware of them or know who they are.
The Freemason organization will not give out their names, degrees or positions. It is super secret with a death oath.
The other Mason's nicknamed them the "White Hats"
Back in the 1800's the Eliteists or 'White hats' all wore these. The member I talked to said that he has seen Russell's pyramid by his grave and told me that was a sign of great respect from the Mason's. The Mason's respect Russell because he started a wordwide religion from NOTHING and it is worth billions of $$$$ now.

JeffT: One good thing, the publisher admitted that my contract had expired in 2003, they bought the old publisher out in 2007, they admitted that they do not know how my book got downloaded & sent to the digital & warehouse distributors.
But they have admitted guilt.

One good thing, I am a member of 'Legal Sheild' so they got me into contact with the right attorney I needed. This is not an advertisement for Legal Sheild, but the $300+ a year has paid for itself many times over.

Thank you everyone. I have hired a lawyer. Publisher was stupid enough to send me an email admittingguilt and it was an 'OH oops' accident. I do have a legal copyright in U.S.A. Book was published in 2002 with my name as the copyright owner.
Copyright office has told me that the publisher's fine, if I file a claim can be anywhere from $700- $250,000
I was just wanting to know what the going price is for a copyright infringement of this nature. My attorney doesn't want to tell me a figure at this point. He's hoping they'll want to quietly settle out of court without filing with the U.S copyright office.
is asking for the $250,000 they might have to pay in fines out of line? Should I ask for more? I don't know.

Well after my contract ran out in 2003, I retained all the rights and they told me that all left over copies would be destroyed except the few legal copies being sold on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Alibris, etc.
So, because of the video someone asked about my book and I said that it was no longer available, they wrote back and told me it's all over the internet.
Come to find out, a large Canadian Publisher bought out my original publisher in 2007 and 'accidently' downloaded the original file onto their computers and started selling my book [Hard copies & digital] without a contract.
My question is, anyone know what the going asking price for a quiet settlement is for this type of thing?

I think that I could get my husband Df'd
by ingimar inthere are some things that i wish the local congregation knew about my husband but i am not sure how to inform them.. my husband was a jw in a previous marriage but none of his family are jw's except for one half sister who he recently met for the first time.
his ex wife is no longer a believer either and their three adult kids want nothing to do with the jw's.. i met my husband 8 years ago on eharmony.
i should have been leary when he stated his religion as "christian".
