A fleeing Taliban, desperate for water, was plodding through the
Afghanistan desert when he saw something far off in the distance.

Hoping to find water, he hurried toward the object, only to find a
Little old Jewish man at a small stand selling ties.
The Taliban asked, "Do you have water?"

The Jewish man replied, "I have no water.
Would you like to buy a tie? They are only $5."

The Taliban shouted, "Idiot! I do not need an overpriced tie.
I need water! I should kill you, but I must find water first."

OK," said the old Jewish man, "it does not matter that you do not
want to buy a tie and that you hate me.
I will show you that I am bigger than that".

"If you continue over that hill to the east for about two miles, you
will find a lovely restaurant.
It has all the ice cold water you need.
Shalom."

Muttering, the Taliban staggered away over the hill.

Several hours later he staggered back.

"Your f***ing brother won't let me in without a tie."

This government likes to talk the talk on global warming and climate change and the threat we all face. Now they want to build a third runway at Heathrow that will create the same amount of carbon emissions that some countries produce on their own. Should we all just give up on recycling and paying green taxes and trying to cut our own carbon footprint if this goes ahead? It seems ridiculous to me.

PS I posted this in the environment section but I don't know how many people look at that one so am reposting it here as it seems to be more active. Apologies for the duplicate post. Would like your thoughts and opinions. Thanks.

Suppose you are in a mission setting, on outreach, so stuck there, and the leadership appears to be more manipulative than you thought. The leadership style becomes more like the Sheparding Movement, and just talks about covering and being accountible to them. The atmosphere is without trust.

According to the book of Exodus the REAL 2nd Commandment is "Thou shalt not make unto me any graven images or any likeness of anything that is in the heaven above, in the earth beneath and is in the water under the earth." It also adds "Thou shalt not bow down to them nor serve them, For I the Lord thy God am a jealous God".

So does splitting the 2nd commandment and replacing it with a lie an act of blasphemy??!?!

I know it's mostly used in battery applications as a solid, but since it's a downshift on the periodic table compoundwise, ie, Li2 is right under H2 and S is right under O, it seems like the fluid should be waterlike.

Or do compounds not work that way?

Do any of you still give "a box" on Boxing Day or as near to as possible? (This is a British tradition)

After 3 days of deliberation, we considered ourselves hopeless. Reported this to the court, and judge sent us back to continue deliberating. Will this ever end? Just how long can a judge make you "try" to reach a verdict? It's not like we haven't given it our all as it is. I went from feeling proud to serve to feeling like a hostage! Anyone out there had similar situations? How did you deal?

So, as I mentioned, it's not new song, it's about 7 yars old, I like it a lot, but I never came to know its name or author. I would be happy if someone knows it :)The repeat goes like this:
Take a look inside my heart,
Tell me what you think you see,
I may not be the innocent girl that you wanted me to be
Sometimes I just want a lover,
Sometimes I do need a friend,
Sometimes I just need somebody.. to hold me to the end
'Cause I..., I wanna do , I wanna do...
That's all I remember, hope it's enough.
Thanks in advance.

A few weeks ago I asked my mom and sisters about Thanksgiving and they said they didn't know what they were going to do. Last week I called my mom and she told me all of my sisters were going to her place and they were all bringing food and they had everything planned out. No one called to tell me and my mom changed the subject. Last night one of my sister's called and asked what was I bringing to mom's and I told her I don't know, no one told me anything about it. Then she called my mom and called me back going off about how I never call them and I need to call mom. I do call my mom and sisters, but they hardly ever answer. So I called my mom twice and she never answered her phone. Some friends of mine invited me to share Thanksgiving with them. I think I should go to see my friends. I just don't want to even deal with my sisters and mom. What would you do?
