Those who have followed me elsewhere know I have been grumbling about Word lately. When I grumble, I grumble big. I did it on Twitter, too, even tagging @microsoft. Very quickly I heard from @OfficeSupport   Hi, Tom. Thank you for reaching out. Please tell us more about the issue that you're having? Also, which Office application are you using? We'll wait for your response.   Me: This is kind of you to respond. The ‘Link to Previous’ button seems to have no effect. Office365Word. Enter chapter titles in odd header & it still populates headers of other sections. Sometimes it does. Othertimes no. Am I misreading the instructions?   Would you like to call our technical support team for a help? They can walk you through and guide you on how to use the Word. They can also answer all your questions in real time. Call them at 1-800-642-7676.   Me: If I enter the number you have given me, 800-642-7676, into a search engine, I come up with a host of pages saying that the holders thereof are frauds and liars.   …We understand the caution regarding this. We would like to confirm that the number we’ve provided is a legitimate Microsoft number…   A day or two passed. Then I heard from them again.   Hi, Tom! How’s everything? We hope you're having a great time. We’d love to hear about your experience with our Social Media support here: http://msft.social/dDqG3B . Feel free to send us a message anytime if you need our help. 1/2   Me: It’s not going well at all. Googling the phone number you gave me, 1 800 642 7676, returns many pages that say you are a scam.   (Concurrent with their tweet above): You may also Subscribe to our Customer Support YouTube channel here: http://msft.social/RqoPMD . Thanks for your time! 2/2   Me: One channel is all I need. If Google says the phone number you gave me, 1 800 642 7676, is a fraud, I will not hold my breath on a YouTube channel. Clean up that mess, if it is wrong.   .........   Everyone knows this phone number. This is the number that pops up when suddenly your screen freezes and you are advised that you have a virus or much worse. If you call them, you will find that they speak English poorly, and are intent upon having you cede control of your computer to them so that they may better 'help' you.   Look at your address bar and you will see it is simply a web page that has taken over everything else. That does not mean it is easily disposed of. Ususally a hard reboot is required, and also that browser session must be prevented from re-opening.   Plainly, these folks are outside of the country, so they are not easily thwarted. Even so, I am a little surprised that the actual Microsoft, big as it is, does not do whatever it takes to shut them down, as it leaves a horrible ugly taste toward their products from those who have been so accosted, and probably drives many to Apple. Maybe @admin, influential as he is, can pass this along to them. This is a job that even @The Librarian (the old biddy) may not be able to handle.

I wonder if this study was funded by a sugar based corporation?

I doubt seriously that this is the ONLY issue where you agree with the philosophy of Karl Marx. He was a brilliant economist who supported the theories of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations (1776), considered to be one of the most important capitalist economists of his time. More of Karl Marx advances on such theories have withstood the test of time and produced more predictable results.
Most anti-Marxists have never read Marx's works. (What's even worse is that most most PRO-Marxists and Marx experts have never read his works either.) People who think they are anti-Marx often merely associate him with things they have heard they shouldn't believe in.

Many fail to realize I try to be , what one enemy once called me (actually it was meant as an insult, but it is the nicest compliment I ever had ...) a "Champion" for Jehovah's Witnesses, and the 15% Core Truth that we have.
An Elder asked me recently if I could fully support "Jehovah's Organization".  I replied that I always have.
He asked me if there was anything I had against the Organization. I replied that I could do without Caleb and Sophia..
That seemed to satisfy him, and we went our separate ways.
I am so glad he did not ask about the 85% silly stuff.
Perhaps I should have kept what my Mother taught me when I was 3 to 6 years old .. "Never talk to strangers.".
I am a slow learner.
 
 

Of all the comments on here....You, Mr.Rook and Queen Ester are the only SANE ones in this forum.

As you grow older, arthritis may cause your knees to stiffen up. To loosen them up, simply do this excercise every morning for about ten minutes. Give it a try ?

PS/PS:
Before 1934, here in the United States, any child could buy ( ..it was legal ..) a water cooled, tripod mounted,  50 caliber machine gun and ammo, BY MAIL.
There were NO "school shootings".
Remember that before King David was King David ... he was a soldier in hand-to-hand combat with a sword. 
Back then, they did not take scalps to keep count of the enemies killed ... they cut off the ends of their penises.   David's idea of a present to his wife was a box of such war trophies.
Yet .... David ... was beloved by Jehovah God .... even covered with the blood and gore of his enemies.
... it all depends on what ideas you are USED to considering.
Most people need "to get out more".
 

I would imagine that these are young men (boys) in a military school ... and although these are in Russia, there are MANY military schools for young men (and young women) here in the United States. 
In times of insurrection and civil war, even the children fight.
I am from Virginia, and there are many military schools in Virginia, as I am sure there are in almost every State.
It all depends on what ideas you were exposed to as you were growing up, as to whether certain concepts are natural to you, or foreign to you. 
I spent many a summer swimming in muddy farm ponds ... but my wife  considers them to be a bacteria soup, and will not consider such a thing.  I think of them as "swimmin' holes", and at worst, free vaccinations.
When my oldest son was five years old, I taught him to shoot a .38 caliber pistol, and he could hit "center mass" at 15 yards.
When my youngest son was 19, I taught him how to take a handgun away from a person who had it aimed directly at a person's head, and he was horrified ... he thought having such a skill was a demonic art.
None of my children share my interests in such things, but none of them are scared of the IDEA of such things.
I have not seen the movie in somewhere around 40 years, but if memory serves, the movie "TAPS", will give you an overview of what it is like in the VERY common and international world of Military Schools.
In this world, the fact of the matter is ... sheep cannot survive without those who are sheep dogs, and are willing to put themselves in harms way and if necessary die ... to protect the sheep. 
It is what they do .. it is who they are.
You and I live and breathe, and avoid tyranny and slavery ... ONLY ... because there are kind and gentle men who are competent in defending you and I against all enemies.
... an incompetent defense ... IS NO DEFENSE AT ALL.
 
 
PS: I just checked ... the full movie TAPS is available free, on Youtube.
 
 
 

Video by ??????? ?????????? 

Video by ??????? ?????????? 

I didn't see this one coming....

Suck it up buttercup. This is the Internet... duh.
Protect yourself by never going online... using cash ... and don't go out to public events in case other people there might have a different viewpoint than yours.

You could have warned that there was very foul language in the video.

Early tweets I saw were unusually vicious, as in "Welcome to hell, Joe"
SOB though he was said to be, though, nobody would have heard of Michael Jackson without him. Raising eight kids in gritty Gary Indiana, where many men walk away; it is not nothing.
One wonders whether his son would have been happier had Joe followed another course. It is one of those "which is better off, a live dog or a dead lion?" deals of Bible verse.
I wrote something of this long ago:

@JW Insider  Ah!  Now I see what you are referring to. Thx.

Just curious as to why you think Angela Merkel is the most powerful?
I wouldn't have thought that.
More powerful than Donald Trump?

The most powerful person in the free world.
 
And she's staring down at Donald Trump.
 
It looks like, John Bolton, the most dangerous man in the free world was there, too.
