All Activity

There seems to be a sharing issue in NWS. Most of the congregation has reported their service activity and it showed up in NWP. Then one of the elders updated the MWM schedule and some of the reports disappeared from NWP. Later, they reappeared. Yesterday the Talk Coordinator updated the talk schedule and all of the service reports for April have disappeared from NWP. The reports are still in NWS so we are waiting for the Secretary to sync with NWP and see if they reappear.

🧬 Key facts Family: Hantaviridae Reservoir: Wild rodents—mainly the long-tailed pygmy rice rat Transmission: Breathing in aerosolized rodent urine, droppings, or saliva Touching contaminated surfaces and then mouth/nose Unlike most hantaviruses, Andes virus can spread person-to-person (rare but documented) Mortality can be 30–40% 🧪 Treatment No specific antiviral cure Supportive hospital care (oxygen, ICU support) is critical Early detection significantly improves survival

Thanks for your reply. That was done already and it still wanted previous info.

Webb looks into the cradles of star clusters, finds massive clusters emerge faster 6 May 2026 Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope together with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have looked deeply at thousands of young star clusters in four nearby galaxies, studying clusters at different stages of evolution. Their findings show that more massive star clusters emerge more quickly from the clouds they are born in, clearing away gas and filling the galaxy with ultraviolet light. The result gives us a more detailed understanding of star formation in galaxies, as well as how and where planets can form.

Bartmann (ESA/Webb) Pic Description[Top]: This image shows a section of one of the spiral arms of Messier 51 (M51), one of the four galaxies studied in this work, as seen by Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam). The thick clumps of star-forming gas are shown here in red and orange, representing infrared light emitted by ionised gas, dust grains, and complex molecules such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Within these gas complexes, each tens or hundreds of light years across, Webb reveals the dense, extremely bright clusters of massive stars that have just recently formed. The countless stars strewn across the arm of the galaxy, many of which would be invisible to our eyes behind layers of dust, are also laid bare in infrared light. Pic Description[Quad]: This image shows the four galaxies studied in this research, each of which has previously been the subject of an ESA/Webb Picture of the Month: Messier 51 (top left), Messier 83 (top right), NGC 4449 (bottom left), and NGC 628 (bottom right). Blue colours, especially in the centre of the galaxies, are near-infrared light that show the location of bright stars. Orange and yellow show ionised gas and red colours come from complex molecules and dust grains; these are longer mid-infrared wavelengths. They trace out the spiral arms of each galaxy as a network of filaments with cavities in between. Credit: ESA/Webb, NASA & CSA, A. Pedrini, A. Adamo (Stockholm University) and the FEAST JWST team.

Months that snakes shed their skins should be scraped from the calendar, bcoz I'm SNAKOPHOBIC

Durability is vital, since snakes usually shed their skin only every two to three months.

For a new publisher, enter the "Date first started preaching" in that field on the publisher's spiritual information page. The program won't expect any reports prior to that date. For a reactivated publisher, put something in the remarks field. This will stop that month's report from showing as missing.

For a new publisher the app wanted a report back to may 2025. I just made a note when brother started activity and for the other dates I just put down in the comments 'not a publisher / no activity'. Seems it got rid of the requesting of other months requested.

I’ve been paying attention to the evolving situation regarding the cruise boat and the Hantavirus onboard… WHO has now confirmed today that it is in fact the Andes Virus, which isn’t good news at all Sadly some have died, and today someone who departed the boat previously presented at their GP in Zurich with symptoms and has been hospitalised 😪 It’s a rapidly changing situation and all news outlets are reporting on it… I’m not sure that the world has learnt anything from Covid etc let’s hope that they do get control of this but I’m not holding out much hope 🤷‍♀️ Yet another sign of scripture being fulfilled as we hurtle towards the end of this system.

Hi everyone. Not sure if anyone else has this glitch, but when I use JW library on my iPad whenever I need to select psalm 70 or higher it opens a different psalm. So I select psalm 70 and it opens psalm 34. If I select psalm 100 I get psalm 60 etc. Getting to psalm 119 I have to get to the highest one it will let me open and then scroll right through all the psalms to get there. I have closed/reopened and deleted/reinstalled the app, it still happens. So I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this?. It doesn't happen in any other book of the bible that I have noticed. please let me know if you have seen that glitch and if you solved it, thanks! Stephen

Is that because a publisher needs to report for 6 months to be a regular publisher? At the moment she is an irregular publisher.

Probably "First Started Preaching" would do it. Or maybe put something in the comments or 0 hours.

We had an inactive publisher who has started going in service again. I marked this sister as active and she sent her report for April. Yet the program is warning me her reports for the previous five months are missing. How should I set this up so that it stop showing those warnings? I can't see a "date of reactivation" anywhere.

Brother Jedele is not saying that the other sheep is God's children in the same sense that the anointed are God's children They are both God's children, just not in the same sense

Im not a super smart guy. 😅I had to google look up what "equivocation" means. I think I know what fallacy means, though its not a word I use often. Big words ! Big uns. However , I completely understood BlaqueCalalilly frustration. As I grew up in the truth thinking the same thing. Lol

Articles of copper iron silver and Gold were all valuables used in building the Temple, because of their beauty and durability.

Val Kilmer's lines were actual quotes of Dr. Holiday's which were gleaned from articles.

Thanks, Carlos... All of this took place a couple of months after I visited you in Spain. Sandra had decided to go home, though my original plan was for her to be involved in the adoptions too. And on to young Summer. Her inclusion in the adoptions initially was because she was so close to Ang and her father had left her mother years before. She also had little contact with her twin sister, and was by then living in the home of her carer and her family. In phone calls prior to that trip we became a lot closer and when I got there I was to meet her father's mother. The 2024 visit was in two parts of about a week each, one as I crossed the USA from West to East and the other as I returned. It was a busy time for us all, partly because I had to change the brakes on the van to comply with requirements to ship it to Australia. The girls had planned an elaborate welcoming party for me, I just had to be touched by this: Unfortunately Leslie had contracted Covid and couldn't come across from Oklahoma. What I didn't realise was that I was also suffering from the same, but it went untested for the moment. I overcame that in the loop of the trip that took me through Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia and on up to New Hampshire, across to Michigan and back to Arkansas. It was then that I did the work on the brakes Lorie had been added in as another adoptee at that welcoming lunch, where several other brothers and sisters joined us for a memorable afternoon. But it irked me that so far all of us had never been in the one place at the one time. Leslie, however, did drive over to join us for a lunch at the KFC at Springdale and finally we were all in the one place: Shelly put together a lovely souvenir book for me to take home, it was a truly beautiful gift and it reflected, I believe, the feelings of all of the girls. Her ability to craft the pages, adding in appropriate scriptures as she went, is something I cannot ever thank her enough for. This page... ...especially gets to me, while the photo of myself with Summer on this page... ...was to add a nice touch with the emergence of Summer as truly a part of the family. I will forever be grateful to Ang for - even if it was only jokingly - suggesting that I adopt her. While it's true that I can't overcome all the problems these girls face, at least I can feel I can add something to their lives and in a small way repay what they are adding to my life. When I arrived in Arkansas for my 2026 visit I first went to see Summer. I tried to phone her as I was getting there but she didn't answer, and when I arrived Meischa - her carer - was in the front yard and she indicated to me not to speak. I walked in and as I came into Summer's sight around the corner of the hallway the girl tried to stand and walk to me, she was just so excited to see me! I had presents for the girls that trip. We got together for lunch at an Applebees and I laid out a lot of Janet's jewellery for them to choose from... and I'd prepared a special gift for Shelly: Made from Australian Mulga wood, I thought it was appropriate because of the upsets she's tolerating in her life. Always she has a scriptural answer, all of these girls love Jehovah and they rely on Him much more than they do on me. I trust all will see why I find this to be so rewarding.

We have experienced the same thing. Most of the congregation has had to submit their time in NWP twice, for it to actually come through to NWS. I'm hoping this is just another one-time side effect from the update(s). Time will tell.

Holiday, John Henry was better known as 'Doc Holiday', American dentist, gambler, and gunfighter and close friend and associate of lawman Wyatt Earp, had earned a degree in dentistry from the Pennsylvania College of Dental Surgery at the age of 20 and set up practice in Griffin, Georgia.

Second response to straps showing: Crocheting a collar could replace a jacket on hot days. Light weight thread or yarn available.

Barney Fife was Andy's cousin in early episodes of Mayberry.

Crashcup, (Clyde) invented a time machine that made people feel 5 minutes younger, which could easily be sold in holiday specials eleven months a year as only August has no recognized holiday.

Onomatopoeia makes comic books feel alive with every “bam” and “crash.”

Ludicrous may be used as a musical nomme, or just onomatopoeia.
