The one thing the article does not address is how the victim lives with the reality of relatives and friends who are still captive and cut off ties. That must account for some angst or guilt. For some people, it`s relatively straight-forward to leave and adapt to a new life quickly. For others, it a hard road.

My dub aunt thinks Obama is mentioned in the bible.
by Jehovah lol inshe's not even american and doesn't live in the usa so it's not even her area of political awareness really.
she seems convinced that obama is the prophesied wolf in sheep's clothing mentioned in revelation.. it's unusual for non-us dubs to hold the weirder beliefs, so this is a new one for me.
she also said that the end is very close now and that things are a foot with north korea; it's clearly the king of the north.. she said exactly the same thing 5 years ago about china, and exactly the same thing 10 years ago about iraq.. derp derp..

Where does your aunt live and does she have access to Fox News there? That's the only source of opinions I can think of that parallels her views. In the old days, there was a lot of interest on the part of the witlesses to interpret the prophetic "visions". I suppose that they have abandoned the "studies" of prophetic works lest they be wrong AGAIN. Besides, those interpretations were usually made by influential individuals that stood apart from the GB, like Fred Franz and people before him. I've been out of touch with news about the borg and so I don't know if they've published new books on interpreting the visions of John and of the older prophets.

Inserting pictures from Flickr
by Etude incan anyone provide steps for inserting a picture here from flickr?

OK. I found a way around that. It seems that the HTML code provided by Flickr does not insert the picture but creates a windowed link to Flickr itself, complete with arrows to navigate. I imagine that JWNet will remove the code and that's why I didn't get the "picture". However, before submitting, I pulled the context menu on the displayed photo and got the link to it. When I inserted that link via the image insertion tool, I got a preview and it seems it works.

Hmm...Wait a minute. I was able to see the preview when editing the post. As soon as I submitted, the message appeared but not the picutres. What's up with that?

While I was not able to find a good link, I was able to post using the HTML insertion tool and the code provided by Flickr. I guess that will have to do for now. Thanks everybody.

I am able to see the plant, both on the first post and later on. Still, I don't understand why I can't seem to post the picture. I see a broken link by blondie (post 36145), which may mean she has the same problem. I'm trying again here...What I find curious is that if I put the link in the URL on a browser (provided I'm not logged into Flickr), I can see the pictures which I've made public, in this case the short link http://flic.kr/p/jywxyS. Why the JWNet cannot preview it beats me.
The link you provided worked. How did you get it? It's completely different from what I get when I ask Flickr to share. I have another picture and I'm not sure if I can get the right link for that.
Thanks.
Etude.

Hmm...Maybe it's me and my browser. I don't see any "plant", "sample" or "test" picture in this thread. I took the picture myself (the one on my link), here in town. I'm saying that assuming that anyone can see the picture in question from the link I provided. I'm going to have to use a different service and see if I can link it.

Here's the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/83207324@N05/12182510786/in/photostream/
I got that one by right-clicking on the picture and copying the link. That is the same link as in the URL.
Also, if I select ways to send (bottom right corner), I can select the public link. It tells me to copy it for use: http://www.flickr.com/photos/83207324@N05/12182510786/
The problem is the same there. I was hoping to avoid creating yet another photo account (besides Picasa, Flickr and whatever is associated with Outlook.

The actual FB message is "Bad Image" "There was a problem with the image file." At one point (it's not doing it anymore) received a security challenge (ID and Password) dialog for Flickr. it didn't work.
