anybody take up coloring?
i got lost ocean by johanna basford and i got another coloring book mandalas and more.
i just use crayola colored pencils and some gel pens and thin tipped markers.
Oppostate LOL!
I've been giving them as gifts for a while...started getting into it when my boy's were about two, if anyone called and happened to ask what I was up to they'd think I was loopy when I told them. I paint and enjoy cyno printing but I find "colouring in" very therapeutic....there's some real beaut's of adult colouring books in the art shops this Xmas!
how much did your congregation and its bank account get taken for?
share your horror story!.

the jehovah's witnesses are allowed to set up a display and man it right outside of the local library, and they are there every day and hour the library is open.

i found this to be a thought-provoking film on the trend in higher education.. oubliette drew my attention to a brilliant article recently called "the coddling of the american mind".
please have a look at the film, click the link and check out the links in the article.
i would love to hear your thoughts.. ...
OK watched it. Pretty poor.. Heavy handed and predictable.
However we can all complain about this stuff but since my sons just been diagnosed with dyslexia I am probably not the best person to give an opinion...I say thank goodness for readjustment scoring to make things fairer for those with a disability.
But I get that average people with average backgrounds may be disadvantaged. In my experience its still who you know and how personable or likeable you are that guarantees success. I call it the David Nivan effect.

Yes I heard a good discussion about this on radio 4. Apparently an academic at a leading American university has written a book about this mind "coddling". One of the triggers for this train of thought was a viral of a colleague being verbally attacked and called a racist by a student.I think the scene was triggered by a discussion over Halloween costumes of all things. The students had put out flyers requesting that costumes be toned down in order not to offend delicate sensibities.
Anyway basically this coddling has resulted in a kind of thought fascism on American campuses where new or different ideas are stifled by the radical left if I can call it that. I will watch the vid ....funnily enough some sites claim that is the case here..that there is an orthodoxy of thought on JWnet and if it gets broached it results in at least a dressing down and occasionally being banned.
this brother is really sharp and i personally saw first hand all the things that he mentioned.
without max larson and george couch, these guys are not business minded.
all you have left is a bunch of ex-co's and service department guys trying to run a org and pick up the pieces where the real thinkers left off.
The story about his friend with the limp is really terrible poor dude..and believe me he is going to suffer with that injury in later life..how unloving for people to know he'd been hit by a FORKLIFT but do nothing because MONEY is their priority, despite their millions.
The brother is a good guy for reaching out to dismissed bethelites..because I will put money on people getting desperate at some point & in the not too distant future too. Good post.

Oubliette, there haven't been many advocating some sort of illegal activity in regards to the copyright of Rays books at all, you are looking at a mere tiny handful , the majority of us have expressed disbelief, frustration in regards to the availability of the books , and there has been an agenda driven reason these threads have appeared on here today and the copyright issue is a secondary one, you couldn't make this stuff up!/\/\/\/\ thisSorry but the books lack of availability is the primary reason for the illegal pdf's. In this small scale production/demand situation that is PATENTLY noone's fault. Hopefully it will be soon available, hooray! However to expect a nervous ,conflicted Jehovahs witness emerging from the darkness of cult thinking to instigate and collaborate in for eg a share funding endeavour to get it legally printed or payy £100 on amazon is naive. They will surreptitiously download the first PDF that comes up on a search and read it in the bathroom at night. I just don't think there is any nepharious intent going on and as soon as it is available I am sure it will sell well and illegals will disappear out of respect, I truly do.
