I notice a war brewing against polygamists in Utah. Don't Mormons question this legal policy, as they were the target of the same type of persecution in 1847?

My best friend and I have people that live under us. On 2 or 3 seperate occasions I can hear the bass on their surround sound. It happens very late like 12 or 1 during the work week. I have to rise early usually around 5:15 or 5:30 M-F and I felt the noise was disrespectful. My room mate filed a complaint with the leasing office. Well today, there was a compliant on our door stating that we are too loud and walk heavy and vaccuming at 2am!!! I know that's a lie b/c I am usually in the bed by then but defineltly not vaccuming at that time...

In my opinion, they are mad and being spiteful b/c we complained against them! Also, I forgot to mention that the downstairs people smoke and I can smell it im our apt.

Any suggestions???

1. they endowed kings with divine right over the people
2. they gave the clergy the right to monopolize and interpret the word of God, excommunicate their opponents, and trade in "pardon cheques".
3. many other atrocities the Roman Empire was known for.

If I disagree with everything you do and say; especially that you know anything. Is there any truth to what I say?

*Note: Is there any truth?

I would like your opinions on a situation that has arisen at work.

We 'house' a company which means we run their business out of ours. We do everything from running their office, bookkeeping, payroll, take/make phone calls on their behalf, pay bills etc.

So at Christmas time they had their office party at our office.

A new employee of ours started the day out with an extremely condescending attitude. She made it look as if she ran our company. She began to drink then started in on a co-worker, being extremely rude, and obnoxious. She later ended up getting into with one of the employees of the company which we house. She pushed him, spilled his drink, he then fell to the ground and she jumped him. Apparently there was another episode out back.

Yes alcohol and conflicting attitudes do not mix. The fact is that employees should treat clients and their employees with respect. Resorting to physical violence should not be tolerated (MY opinion only!)

The whole thing could have been dealt with in a more professional manner BEFORE things got out of hand, but was ignored by the owner.

There are 4 employees at our office besides the drunken, violent chick, we had all left earlier because we could see something like this happening and didn't want to be involved.

The owner feels sorry for the girl and is making alcohol and her family life her excuse. He's accepting it. She now feels bad and wants to quit but the boss is trying to kiss her a$$ so she stays.

My personal feeling is the whole situation disgusts me to no end. I am embarrassed to be associated with the company and this employee. If this girl remains with the company we are asked to not 'razz' her and be nice.

What are your thoughts please??

If you know for sure that God has told you to do something, how long does it take you to follow thru with his command? What distracts you and keeps you from doing what he says? For me, it's timidity...

Does anyone know where the idea that eating pork and sauerkraut on New Years Day brings good luck for the year started? I'm German/Pennsylvania Dutch background, and I grew up with this. Now people are starting to ask me what the deal is with that belief. I honestly don't know anything except it's tradition.
Anyone know?
