  1. Past hour
  2. Here is a nice article of WTBS did. https://www.brooklynpaper.com/exclusive-witnesses-pledge-5-5m-to-fix-crummy-dumbo-park/
  3. Buying lobsters only costs hundreds M H T I C
  4. Today
  5. We don't use NWS for our territories but looking at the Territory List page I think: Territory is for the territory number such as #17. Area is an optional designation just as a helpful aid such as "North of the Nile River", or "On our Southern boundary." It could also be a reminder of a more dangerous - "No sisters working alone" and such. I could be way off since we don't use it but that seems to be what I am thinking.
  6. Currently our organization is closing the opportunity to add jwpub files. But it has not always been the case. In addition to the various Bibles discussed so far, other books have been available in the past. See my screenshot below. JW Library placed them at the bottom of my "Guidelines" folder.
  7. How would I go about getting one that might work in his country? Ask an elder? I’ve never heard about this
  8. Yup!, as Br. @Dages mentioned. There are mirror links of jw.org that you can *probably* use. There are a lot of them although we can't post them here.
  9. Interesting, Agnostic is recognized and Atheist was dropped. There is an entry called Other Religions. That should include everything that was dropped. 200 is a lot from a technical point of view.
  10. IT.IS.PHENOMENAL!! So modern and elegant. Very impressive! There was a 20 or so minute video production with expressions of love, appreciation and gratitude from many of the volunteers from all over Canada, and even words of praise and awe from worldly engineering consultants. It was mentioned that the amount of volunteer man hours would amount to over 10.5 million dollars if paid to secular contractors. And only about 1/3 of the volunteer labor were skilled workers, which in no way would be feasible on a secular project. But it shows what Jah's spirit can accomplish. Can't wait for our convention!😃
  11. The Nobel Prize was established through the will of Alfred Nobel.
  12. Buying rabbits inspires nothing grand. BLOCH
  13. One American ambulance driver during World War I was Ernest Hemingway, who later won the Nobel Prize for Literature. And we wear Hard Hats on LDC Projects.
  14. BYNTQ Bring your new tantalizing questions. BRING
  15. There are mirror links for jw.org for countries where our activities are blocked.
  16. Yesterday
  17. The site of Thoreau's cabin has been identified in Concord, MA.
  18. I witnessed online again with the person in whose country jw.org is inaccessible, fully blocked. but guess what is not blocked: Instagram and TikTok! He was interested and I gave him the links to our socials. Hopefully it will help keep him connected to JW news, even if just in a small way.
  19. Jehovah is our rock. How strong is that bond? It is the breaking of bonds within rocks, usually from tectonic plate movement, that causes earthquakes and tsunamis.
  20. The word romance seems to be rooted in Rome, but Romans were not necessarily romantic. Ideas about courtship may come from France.
  21. It really was. I don't want to live in the big city but Brooklyn around 21 and 121 Columbia Heights was very nice and relaxing. I could enjoy living there. I've noticed the number of TV shows that film in that location has seamed to have increased. No doubt this spurs some of the increased tourism.
  22. I will be visiting with some family in Florida Fourth of July weekend. They are not in the truth, and I plan to be out in service Saturday, and at the meeting Sunday, depending what time my flight leaves. Is anyone on here living in or near Fort Walton Beach Florida?
  23. I'm not very familiar with this, but I believe JWPub files are protected by digital signatures. That means JW Library rejects JWPub files from other sources.
  24. Really humorous yarns mimic exasperation B Y N T Q
  25. Hard hats were inspired in part by military helmets used during World War I.
  26. OSHA regulations often require workers to wear hard hats.
  27. Many difficult jobs rely on safety regulations enforced by Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

    • 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.”

      My work is delayed for a week. 
      My UPS that power my entire workstation catastrophically failed, and I’ve never been scared in my life seeing it emitting lots of smoke and loud sparks. 
       
      This scares me because I was originally planning to go out of town this weekend. If I had gone, my place could have burned down. Thankfully, I decided not to leave town this weekend.

      I think someone somewhere said they knew someone that makes notebooks for conventions/assemblies. I would love to support them and get a notebook for the upcoming regional. A friend of mine gave me a spare she was given for the assembly and it helped me enjoy the assembly a bit better because i had no use for my phone so i wasn't just fiddling around (I can write faster than i can type, within the first sentence i have no idea what is being said and i get lost when im typing notes)

      There were many JW artists I followed on Instagram, they created beautiful Christian illustrations. But for some reason many deleted their accounts out of the blue, no trace left.
       
      I don't know why and it makes me very sad

      Is jw_pressroom on IG legit? Friends I know are liking a post on and following it. There is nothing officially on our Press Room page nor is it in our News page or a headline about it. I’m treating as junk but does anyone have details?

      It's time for me to take a break from JWTalk for just a bit. We have our Regional Convention starting tomorrow! For those of us confined to watching the convention on a screen (rather than in person), at least they give us a choice of watching the recorded version from the US, or the live streamed version of our own convention (with the local brothers doing the parts). Because of the convention, I likely won't have time to peek in here at all.
       
      So, enjoy the weekend everyone!

      Carlos, I don’t think that is correct. I read a lengthy post on this forum from a brother who stated that he was one of the developers. It would be great if the devs would identify themselves in the forum.
