  1. Past hour
  2. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr0qxd1y219kt At least 1,924 people are missing in Nepal CNN even reported : Hundreds have been killed and at least 2,500 are missing from the devastating Himalayan floods
  3. This is not a criticism, but I have such a turn-off, in general, to people who dress in a sensual or theatrical way because it seems like they are playing a character instead of being genuine, but her personality was so sincere and refreshing that even with her highly-curated style I never got the impression that she was fake. I think that is rare and I really hope the world sees her again.
  4. Today
  5. I think you can create a Congregation Event for the entire month and sent it to just the group he is visiting. I'm not sure why you want to do it this way but it would show up as an Event for the FSG for the month.
  6. Ezra Reader does not include or redistribute JW.ORG publications. Users download the EPUB files themselves from the public JW.ORG website and open them locally in Ezra Reader. The app is a free, non-commercial reading tool. It does not host or distribute JW.ORG publications. The JW.ORG Terms of Use specifically allow free, non-commercial applications designed to download EPUB, PDF, MP3 and MP4 files from public areas of the site. Ezra Reader is therefore intended simply as an additional reading environment, not as a replacement for or redistribution of the organization’s Bible study tools and publications.
  7. As Jehovah’s Witnesses, we have a lot of reading to do: Watchtower articles, Bible passages, publications, personal study, and more. For many of us, that’s no problem. But for some, reading can be a real challenge. Concentration difficulties, ADHD, dyslexia, or simply losing your place in a long text can make it harder to get through the material. That’s why I’m developing Ezra Reader: a dedicated reading app designed to make digital reading more comfortable, focused and accessible. It's specifically intended for JW articles. Ezra Reader is not intended to replace any of the Bible study tools or publications provided by the organization. It is simply an additional tool, focused on helping people stay concentrated while reading. The reading technique behind Ezra Reader is based on the successful SwiftRead app, adapted with our own reading and study needs in mind. The app is open-source and currently under active development. If you’re interested, you can follow the project or contribute on GitHub: https://github.com/jw-agape-apps/ezra-reader I’d love to hear from jou: What makes digital reading difficult for you, and what would you like to see in a reading app?
  8. Thanks a lot for the reply, I'm going to run some tests changing first and last names to see if more show up Something curious is that the brothers who have some responsibility in the congregation and have additional permissions within Hourglass, all their names show up...
  9. Is there a way to create a custom schedule for the Service Overseer to visit each group? Our SO schedules a group to visit by the month and not by the date. Suggestions? Thanks
  10. (I cannot understand Spanish, so I asked AI to solved this issue, I hope this solution works.)
  11. TRANSLATION: Good morning to everyone. Here in Valencia, Spain we have been using Hourglass for two years already and it's working fine. From time to time we have some issue but we have managed to solved them all. However we have an issue now that we are unable to solve. Maybe some of you can help. Thank you in advance for helping one another. I'm attaching a screenshot so that you understand what the problem is. Buenos días a tod@s, por aquí en Valencia, España, llevamos ya casi 2 años con Hourglass y nos esta funcionando muy bien, de vez en cuando salen algunos fallos y los vamos solucionando, pero ahora tenemos uno que no somos capaces de dar con la solución y no se si alguno tendrá respuesta para ayudar, muchas gracias de antemano por la atención que se tienen unos con otros. Adjunto imagen para que puedan ver a que me refiero
  12. I had the same question but I guess we would not tell to secure the anonymity and security of the surviving ones, if any. Such info would be secret and only dealt with privately and locally.
  13. Pray for our brothers and sisters
  14. On the other hand, think about Paradise... what will Jehovah do with geography? How will we name places and things? It's exciting to think about.
  15. And thats where i stopped reading, just to ask, what plat form, what's your ELO, interested in playing some games with me (Where we can take our time making moves, even if it takes from 1 minute to a day for someone to make a move? Also i think the last song from Chris Brown i heard of was....Run it and Kiss kiss (so literally the first two songs he made lol). Also with my random shenanigans it wouldnt surprise me if I have an ungodly amount of views from the heavens above. I'm probably their favorite prime time drama
  16. It gained 20% today, thats 100% YTD. I'm glad to see it doing so well.
  17. But the theme of peace comes from September and October. It's still to begin.
  18. There is worldly expression "BMOC" (Big Man On Compas). We have BBOC (Big Buffon On Campus). Thanks, Jim P.S. I truly hope Shawnster is right "This too shall pass." P.P.S. I know it will happen eventually, the question is will it happen while I am still around (now age 82)>
  19. we're using "what is god's kingdom" city wide for smpwp in socal. not "is world peace possible?" was kind of disappointed but its ok.
  20. This is just noise. A distraction. Nothing to see here. Nobody (well, few) takes this seriously. This too shall pass.
  21. For us its more about the need for visualising the block boundaries. It helps the overseer work out how many publishers are needed and for the publisher to know where they are going. Having just one polygon map is difficult especially when you can't mark off individual homesites due to legal constraints in Australia. We just use territory notes to record what blocks are completed.
  22. At present we handle Do Not Calls via NW Scheduler as this is the only permitted list maintained by the congregation. As for Not at homes and RVs the publisher makes a personal record and are responsible to follow up. 12 years ago we were instructed not to use S-8 slip aka "house to house" record, as well as the S-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people). The congregation cannot officially record and maintain personal details.
  23. I'm not a good dancer but, boy- do I love to watch dancers! I would love to feel as free as one must be to be a fine dancer 🥰 Conversely, if I'm inclined to exercise (haha), I enjoy those based in some dance style. It makes it so much more fun to me. I will dance around at a wedding or something- line dances are safe- but I'm not one anyone would watch. My son, on the other hand... 🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾He's good- the sort people circle around. One thing I've discovered- it's nearly impossible to stay in a bad mood when you're dancing; too many endorphins flying around from the activity! 😄 In general, though I'd rather watch. Below is an artist's rendition of David groovin' along after his victory. The ladies liked it.. 😉
  24. He already did it ... Trump signs executive order renaming Lake Ontario as ‘Lake America’ Trump Signs Executive Order to Rename Lake Ontario to Lake America - The New York Times Canadians react to Trump changing Lake Ontario to Lake America Who knows, maybe Canada will decide to change the name of Lake Michigan - (2 Timothy 3:3) . . .not open to any agreement. . .

    • Modern references to creative days:
       
      *** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
      The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
       
      *** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
      So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
       
      *** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
      WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
       
      *** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
      A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”
