 Honesty Rescues Her

   
Compared to most Hollywood celebrities, Sally Field is just a saint.  Even her dress is usually conservative. Sally appeared on the cover of the March 1986 issue of Playboy magazine, contrary to rumor did not appear in a nude pictorial. From perky, surf-loving Gidget in 1965 to gray-haired, frumpy Mrs. Gump in 1994 and later, Academy award-winning actress Sally Field has exhibited a wide range of talent and an enduring likability in a profession that too often ignores women at the age of 60, recently appearing as a mother of five adult siblings.  Her roles have a common theme -- it is that women are intelligent, strong, and capable of heroic deeds. While Robert Pardi writes, "Gritty, plucky, feisty—and other adjectives that have fallen out of favor—spring to mind when contemplating the essence of Sally Field's appeal. Her limitations (including a regrettably thin voice,
 
   

a failing that  puts her in good company with Elizabeth Taylor and Natalie Wood)  are as immediately  apparent as her virtues (a translucent honesty which rescues her from the precipice of seeming too actressy)," Sally is sought for honorable work at 60 years old.

Recruiters When the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) was organized, society as a whole, including the scientific community, believed that those who engaged in homosexual acts were morally flawed. People also tended to accept the premise that homosexuals posed a threat to children, whom, it was thought, homosexuals wished to “corrupt.” At some point, the psychiatric community concluded that homosexuality was a mental disorder in need of treatment.

Reduces Lifespan "The consistency of reduced lifespan for those engaging in homosexuality is significant," said Dr. Cameron. "The same pattern of early death turned up whether we looked at obituaries in the U.S. or deaths in marriage. Given the greatly reduced lifespan for homosexuals, school children should be strongly and consistently warned about the dangers of homosexuality even more so than smoking. Those school districts which are introducing pro-gay curricula need to rethink their priorities." Homosexuality More Dangerous Than Smoking - Christian News Wire

 
   

 
         

Family Concerns

 

Joyce Meyer In what condition is your mind? Have you noticed that the condition of your mind changes? One time you may be calm, peaceful, and certain of yourself. Another time you're anxious, worried, and insecure. There have been times in my own life when I have experienced these things. There have been times when I seemed to be able to make a decision and stick with it. I could make up my mind easily. Then there have been other times when I couldn't seem to arrive at a decision at all. Doubt, fear, and uncertainty haunted me mercilessly. I second-guessed myself and could not make up my mind. I did not know that I could do anything about my thought life. I thought I was destined to be indecisive. I've Got My Mind Made Up!
