That question is a tough nut to crack. I guess they would just hash out their problems like normal people, or else they'd be in quite a pickle having to walk on eggshells around each other. The one who refused to make peace would be labelled a bad apple, but if they could just break bread instead of roasting each other then we wouldn't have to worry about one of them getting egg on their face. But if that happens, I hope one of them spills the beans and the tea because digging up dirt on others is my bread and butter.

Wow ! It's awesome !

I knew you would be happy. We hope you are able to volunteer...

What amazing choices! What a dream... 🥹

I have used otm for a long time, am interested in looking at alba.

Monday, September 7 He becomes the rewarder of those earnestly seeking him.—Heb. 11:6. Jehovah gives us peace and contentment now and will give us everlasting life in the future. We can place our hope in Jehovah, convinced that he has both the desire and the power to reward us. And that conviction moves us to stay busy in our worship, just as faithful servants of God in the past were moved to do. This proved true of Timothy in the first century. (Heb. 6:10-12) Timothy put his hope in the living God. (1 Tim. 4:10) Therefore, he had good reason to work hard and exert himself. In what ways? The apostle Paul encouraged him to make progress as a teacher and a public speaker. Timothy was also to set a good example for fellow believers, both young and old. And he was assigned some difficult tasks, which included giving firm but loving counsel to those who needed it. (1 Tim. 4:11-16; 2 Tim. 4:1-5) Timothy could be sure that Jehovah would reward him.—Rom. 2:6, 7. w24.0622-23 ¶10-11

I just learned that Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice from the Spice Girls) was for a brief time one of Jehovah's Witnesses when her family joined, however they ended up leaving because it wasn't for them.

Ouch, it looks like that's around $400 USD. The Samsung A series are the budget/lower tier devices, while the S series are the mainstream devices with more power. For the basic uses needed, newer A series devices should be more than enough, and are cheaper within that generation. The only benefit of the S series there is stylus support. I know S6 Lites used to be $200, but they're a bit old now, they're on the S11 model currently. I got the A9+ for $150 around two years ago, which has reliable specs and a 90hz refresh screen which is helpful for reading/studying. The A11+ sold now for around $250 ($200 used) has barely any improvements and is in the same shell. At the moment in the US, used S6 Lite are around $125 and used A9+ are around $150 - I would prefer the a9+ or a11+ since they're newer for the battery & android updates.

James Webb telescope finds one of our galaxy's rarest stars inside the 'Treasure Chest' globule A dazzling new James Webb Space Telescope image reveals about 70 newborn stars buried inside a strangely shaped cloud in the Carina Nebula. By Jamie Carter Published 7 hours ago Summary What it is: The Treasure Chest, a cometary globule in the Carina Nebula star-forming region Where it is: 7,500 light-years away, in the constellation Carina (the Keel) When it was shared: Aug. 21, 2026 It looks like a gigantic treasure chest left open among the stars — but instead of gold and jewels, this strange cosmic structure contains dozens of newborn suns. This new image from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveals the aptly named Treasure Chest, a colorful cloud of gas and dust in the Carina Nebula, one of the Milky Way's richest star-forming regions. Located about 7,500 light-years away in the Southern Hemisphere constellation Carina, the nebula stretches roughly 260 light-years across and contains some of the most massive stars in our galaxy, as well as tens of thousands of young protostars. It's also home to the "Cosmic Cliffs," which appeared in JWST's first collection of science images, released in 2022. (See below for link.) The Treasure Chest is a cometary globule, an isolated cloud with a dense, dark head and a sweeping tail. Although such objects are named for their resemblance to comets, this one looks more like a wooden chest with its lid propped open and light spilling from inside. JWST's Near-Infrared Camera reveals the source of that glow: a compact cluster of about 70 young stars embedded in the dust. The most massive one is a rare O-type star — extremely large, bright, and short-lived stars — measuring roughly 19 times as massive as the sun. The Treasure Chest won't always look like this. Radiation and winds from the young stars inside it, combined with the assault from massive stars nearby, will gradually erode the remaining gas and dust. Eventually, the cosmic chest will disappear, revealing its true jewels — the stars within it...

The kids born in the New World will never believe how incredibly stupid the end times were. Never. 🙄😒

I can recommend two tablets...

What did the Pink Panther say when he stepped on an ant?

It may be useful to check with others in your congregation, to see what they are using and how it works for them. I understand that Czech customers have used Amazon.de (Germany), which delivers to Czech addresses. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 lite. It is sold through Amazon and elsewhere for c. 8,400 Czech koruna, and has a good reputation for the use you talk about.

"Trump Suggests Renaming Strait of Hormuz the 'Trump Strait' Amid Renewed Iran Hostilities" Oh, so that is why we are paying more for gas...😖

My tank is always full around $30... Nowadays, I try not to look, as the gas meter ran past $60🤸‍♂️

Follow the money. Rule of Acquisition 34: War is good for business.

Only if you go east ( and can swim ) take one of the bridges or the tunnel.

I don't know what kind of tech you have available where you live, but it appears you may not have Amazon natively in Czech. It's hard to recommend something specific without knowing what you have access to. There are typically some good options in the $150 range. Unfortunately prices have been skyrocketing the past year. You'll find the best deals in used/refurbished. Normally I would recommend something like the 8/11" Onn Core which are fairly stock Android, or the Samsung A9+/A11+. Lenovo has some good tablets too, I always loved their Chromebook Duet line. https://www.walmart.com/ip/ONN8-BLU-TABLET/18593964369 https://www.walmart.com/ip/11-BLU-TABLET/18575603772 https://www.samsung.com/us/tablets/galaxy-tab-a11-plus/ https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/tablets/results/?sortBy=priceUp

Milky Way Magnetic Slice Astronomers already knew the Milky Way’s magnetic field reverses near the Sagittarius Arm, but a new 2026 three-dimensional model revealed the boundary’s unexpected shape: not a vertical wall between spiral arms, but a tilted magnetic plane slicing diagonally through the Galactic disc and passing just above our own region of space. A 2026 model replaces the familiar vertical boundary near the Sagittarius Arm with a tilted magnetic plane passing above the Sun in Galactic coordinates. By Lachlan Brown Deep Field Published 5 Sept 2026 Astronomers already knew the Milky Way’s magnetic field reverses near the Sagittarius Arm, but a new 2026 three-dimensional model revealed the boundary’s unexpected shape: not a vertical wall between spiral arms, but a tilted magnetic plane slicing diagonally through the Galactic disc and passing just above our own region of space. The Milky Way has a magnetic field, but no camera can step outside the Galaxy and photograph its shape. Astronomers have to infer that field from inside it, using radio waves that have crossed magnetised gas on their way to Earth. Those measurements had already established an unusual feature between the Sun and the Sagittarius Arm. The large-scale field near us points mainly one way around the Galaxy, while the field farther inward points the other. Somewhere between the two is a reversal. The usual diagrams made that reversal look almost architectural: two magnetic regions separated by a boundary standing through the Galactic disc. A model published in 2026 replaces that wall with something much less intuitive. The boundary behaves like a tilted plane slicing diagonally through the disc and passing above the Sun in Galactic coordinates.

I just released v2 with some major improvements: - Separated Thematic fom Ordering - now in Selection section along with Categories - Better organization of thematic selections - Completion ordering adjustments - Code optimization

Sunday, September 6 You are worthy, Jehovah our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things.—Rev. 4:11. The most important reason why we preach the good news is that we love Jehovah God and his holy name. We view our ministry as a way to praise the God we love. We wholeheartedly agree that Jehovah God is worthy to receive glory, honor, and power from his loyal worshippers. We give him glory and honor when we share with others the convincing evidence that he “created all things” and that we owe him our very existence. We give him power—our power—when we use our time, energy, and resources to share in the ministry as fully as our circumstances allow. (Matt. 6:33; Luke 13:24; Col. 3:23) Put simply, we love to speak about the God we love. We also feel compelled to tell others about his name and what it stands for. w24.05 17 ¶11

Amazon Fire tablets seem to be the best value dollar for dollar. They’re cheap but work very well, and last many years.

I've got both a Lenovo 10' and a Samsung 11', both are good tablets.
