  Focus reveals to you... God's Plan. Complete with Pile of "Rubbish" (literally)

  by Focus in

  scroll down slowly (spoiler space below) so that the great god's plan is only progressively revealed to you:.

  now, i ask you in all honesty - what could be clearer than the above?.

  god's plan clearly jumps out of the illustration, doesn't it?.

  Ballet anyone?
  
  "Russian Ballet Icons Gala is dedicated to 100 years since the birth of the legendary Galina Ulanova. It featured famous excerpts from Ulanova's greatest roles, performed by a dazzling international cast of some of the worlds top ballet dancers from the Bolshoi and Mariinsky Theatres, Royal and English National Ballet, ballets of the Grand Opera Paris, Berlin Staatsoper and Monte Carlo. Performances included classical masterpieces such as Romeo and Juliet, Giselle, The Sleeping Beauty, The Dying Swan, Chopiniana, The Red Poppy and Flames of Paris and works by leading contemporary choreographers such as Maurice Bejart, Jean-Christophe Maillot, José Martinez, Angelin Preljocal, Twyla Tharp, Alistair Marriot and Vladimir Vasiliev. There were also special dedications to the dancer once declared ‘the world’s number one’ by Rudolf Nureyev.
  
  Enjoy.

  So Happy to Learn About Homemade Weed Killer

  by Iown Mylife in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  three days ago we mixed up the recipe and sprayed the driveway cracks and several places where the weeds have been hard to get rid of.. today the weeds are dead just like when we've sprayed commercial weed killer.. mix one gallon white vinegar, 1 cup salt, 5 to 6 tablespoons of dawn dishwashing liquid.

  note: don't spray if it's fixin' to rain, wait for dry weather so the stuff will stay on the weeds.

  and don't spray where you want anything to grow ever!.

  Some more...

  Vinegar

  One of the most effective ingredients for killing weeds is vinegar. Plain white or apple cider vinegar will work equally well. Use it straight from the bottle, no need to dilute. Pick a dry day to spray some on a weed and it will immediately start to droop. The acetic acid in vinegar will kill the above-ground part of the weed, but it will not kill the roots. One application is usually enough for young plants, but more established plants will need additional treatments.

  Salt

  Combine salt with vinegar to create a lethal plant killer. Use about a cup of salt to a gallon of vinegar for the best effect. Sometimes, salt can be a little too effective. In large quantities, it will kill everything in sight and make the ground sterile and unusable for years.

  Boiling Water

  A couple of cups of boiling water will cook a weed right where it sits without harming the environment or affecting future growth in the same soil. No need to get fancy, just boil a pot of water on the stove or in the microwave and pour it on the plant. It will kill the roots of nearby plants, though, so be careful when you pour.

  Dishwashing Soap

  Dishwashing soap doesn't kill weeds, but it helps weed killer solution stick to the plants. You only need to add about 3 tbsp per gallon of weed killer. Pick a dishwashing liquid that does not contain bleach to avoid possible chemical reactions.

  Corn Gluten Meal

  Corn gluten meal, which is not the same as corn meal, is a weed preventive. It prohibits seeds from starting. To prevent weeds from growing, scatter it in an area you plan to plant mature plants in, like a flowerbed. But it also will prevent volunteer flowers, so you'll have to replant when a plant dies if you use this method.

  Combo Approach

  Combining methods will produce the most amazing homemade weed killer of all. Boil water, vinegar and salt, add a dollop of dishwashing soap, and it just doesn't get more lethal.

  Method Of Delivery

  Large lawn sprayers set on a narrow stream work well. You can also use an empty spray bottle washed out well enough to remove any chemical residue, a watering can or even a gravy boat for small areas. Anything with a narrow spout or a targeted stream of spray will do the trick.

  Warning

  Like many commercial chemical fertilisers, homemade weed killers can't differentiate between weeds and other plants. Use your homemade weed killer very carefully to avoid killing plants you want to keep. Have a container or sprayer of water handy to rinse off plants that accidentally get splashed with weed killer.

  How Accurate Is JWN In Your Opinion?

  would you say this board gives accurate information, overall?

  if someone started reading the comments here, do you think they would find this discussion board as accurate?.

  They would have to wade through the oceans of opinion and the masses of debates in order to find accurate information here. More of a heated discussion forum than a source of accurate information I'd say. Even when information is posted it becomes hotly debated, argued against, often discredited, even ridiculed or picked to pieces.
  
  I personally don't come here for facts.. mostly for headline updates and to read about the human experience side of things.

  What have you created?

  by new hope and happiness in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i think it's wonderful that be all posses creative power of thought, and i think this form of creative manifestation comes most commonley in the form of arts.so many posters have mentiond they are writing a book, but i bet some of you create music or make a wonderful soup.. i ask this because i was reading my old school reports and my art teacher wrote " michael is the post constructive, imaginative pupil i have ever had.

  his enthusiasm wonders a bit but on the whole an excellent pupil" ....sadly i think if that statement was true i have rather let my self down with my artistic expression.

  still it's never to late and i intend to involve myself in my art again this summer..

  All my school reports said: 'Chris is very intelligent and talented but is easily distracted and his mind tends to wander. If only he would apply himself he might achieve something'.

  Well that wandering mind has taken me across 32 diffrent countries so far and I use it to try to create beautiful images and photos for some of the most prestigious companies and individuals in the world.

  THE CURRENT FADING OF BRAND NAME "THE WATCHTOWER"

  by steve2 in

  2. friends

  the current fading of brand name "the watchtower" & the rise, rise, rise of jw.org.

  the watchtower as brand name is in the process of being imperceptibly faded from visibility in the organization.

  who'd have thought you could make a watchtower fade and disappear?

  The site jw.org site may seem slick and shiny to someone that's lived in a cave the last 20 years never seen the internet before. It's name, layout and design are all corny and it's content condescending and an insult to the intelligence.

  jw.org is consulted by hundreds of thousands around the world and is highly regarded by researchers

  Maybe if those researchers are 12 years old..
