BIG malls around arcadia florida? Question: I'm visiting my aunt in arcadia florida and i want to go shopping but I'm not sure where the nearest mall is. i'm looking for a pretty big mall and I'm wiling to drive a little. thanks!
Answer:
Nothing near Arcadia. You'll have to drive south about 50 miles to the city of Fort Myers, or about 50 miles west to the city of Sarasota. Their malls are pretty big, but nothing like the humongous Sawgrass Mills Mall located eastward in Sunrise...but that's a 3 hour drive. I still get lost in that place and I live nearby!

Is it about time this came out? Some Jehovah's Witnesses want more than to leave Watchtowers ? Question: Towns where Alleged Jehovah's Witness Child molesters have been reported to silentlambs
Home
Listed by each state
If you would to add a new listing contact silentlambs at info@silentlambs.org
The list below is designed to alert you to a possible danger in your community. Over the course of the last four years silentlambs has been a repository of reports on alleged Jehovah's Witness child molesters. Victims have reported extensively on times, dates and places abuse occurred. We have wrestled with how to alert the public as well as members that may be in congregations where abusers have been reported.
We offer the following suggestions if you as a Jehovah's Witness are in a town/congregation where a report has been made.
Do not allow your children to be alone with anyone in the congregation.
Escort your children to the bathroom during meetings and make sure no else is with them when using facilities.
Never allow your children to be alone in the car with anyone while in field service.
Do not allow any member to study with your child alone.
Avoid camping trips in which children go as a group with one or two adults.
Avoid baby sitters that are adult males.
At a get together watch your children and keep them in sight at all times.
Ask elders directly if they know of any abusers in your congregation, use specific names and note their reaction. They will not tell you directly but indirectly you can often figure out who it is. If one elder is less cooperative talk to another till you find out enough information to know the facts.
Check the local sex offender list in your area, type in the name of every person in your congregation to see if any are listed.
Notice any male member of the congregation that does not have privileges such as microphone or other duties around the congregation, especially if for a long period of time. They can offer talks on the TMS or sermons Service Meeting but are not allowed to conduct meetings. (This is only in case of a confessed child molester)
Note any member of the congregation that has children with sever rebellion or emotional problems.
Do not allow your children to have sleepovers with anyone.
Note members that the elders avoid having around their children.
If you are a member of the public and your community is on the list take the following steps to protect your family.
If Jehovah's Witnesses call at your home never allow them in your home
If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call at your home purchase a no trespassing sign and place it near your door. JW's are instructing to only respect "no trespassing" signs any other variation will be ignored.
If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call you can also call the local number and ask to be placed on the "do not call" list. They will note your home and check about once a year to make sure you wish to remain on the list.
If you choose to study with Jehovah's Witnesses do so at a neutral location such as the local Kingdom Hall or in a public place.
Never allow your child to be alone with members or their children.
If you choose to attend meetings with Jehovah's Witnesses then we suggest you follow the guidelines above for members.
Remember that most members are not aware of who the molesters are in their congregation according to church policy. They do not know.
If two Jehovah's Witnesses call at your door one could be a child molester. According to church guidelines all confessed child molesters are required to have a partner when going door to door. If two Jehovah's Witnesses appear at your door you might wish to ask if one or both are child molesters for peace of mind. Of course keep in mind if the person is an accused child molester they are allowed to work alone in the door to door work.
We hope this information is helpful and assists with the ultimate goal of silentlambs, protecting children. Check back as the list is updated on a regular basis.

safe areas in jacksonville florida? Question: theres an apartment complex im thinking about going to when i move to jacksonville either next month or october.. lakewood village apartments. its on arcadia drive. its right next to what i THINK to be st johns river. not sure. across that water is the jax NAS. anyways im just wondering if anyone can help me to be sure this area is safe crime wise and all that. thanks.
im moving there because my navy boyfriend is getting stationed there for his first command. i live in texas..so i cant really drive over there to look on my own. but i might be going next month early and stay at a hotel to start looking for an apartment and also a job. the apartment i was looking into has variable lease.. what exactly is that. im thinking its where you pay month by month and stop the lease when your ready to move.. is this correct?
Answer:
Yes, Arcadia is just off San Jose Blvd on the Southside near the St. Johns. That whole area is fairly nice for the most part - not a high crime area by any means. Not sure what sort of work you're looking for, but living there would have you in fairly easy commute distance from downtown, Southpoint (I-95 @ FL-202) and the Baymeadows area, which include many of the major employers in town.
For temporary housing while you look, there's a lot of the big efficiency studio chains (Extended Stay, InSuites, Suburban Suites, Homewood, etc.) along Phillips Highway, Beach Blvd. and the JTB (FL-202).
Not sure just what variable lease might entail - one possibility could be a higher rate during the summer (tourist season), but just guessing.
