When I heard this, I then realised that perhaps this is why they left the % increase box blank in the annual report. How can they claim the work is speeding up with all those KH builds and renovations needed if the % increase box was eiTher nil or negative
hi NicolasKop Am I right in thinking you mean the annual UK report had left the percentage increase box blank and if so is this the first time this has happened? Did it happen in other countries does anyone know? Thanks for any replies!

Hi Stepford...,(you are so not a Stepford wife btw!!!)
there is a "faders guide"on here, unfortunately I cannot use the search facility on my mobile, (if someone could post link I would appreciate it) it may be under a user called "the searcher"he's a current fader and gives great advice - could you pm him if you cannot find it?
generally you should avoid meeting elders, they come in twos for a reason - to dig for evidence. Their priority is the org and the cong/their own butts, not you - ordinary publishers come way down the list.
If you must meet them I believe being stumbled by the arc is your best option as it allows you to keep tighter reigns on your daughter. Say you just need time to sort things out yourself, wait on jah etc rinse and repeat - don't give them anything else. Many folks site depression/anxiety issues but this may be awkward if hubby as an elder doesn't want to mislead. They will not inform other halls and their desperate need for men taking the lead may work in your favour re hubby's position - though if they have already mentioned his stepping down that may be a done deal - be prepared for them to use his position to blackmail you into coming back. I would suggest you asking them to watch the arc with you in order to respond to your question - that may send them scarpering !!!!! Lol!
I wish u all the best but I will say freeing your daughter would be my priority, imho ! Xxxxx

Queued for Processing ....
by cofty inif a new topic hangs for ages with spinning icon at "queued for processing " should you give up and post a new copy of the thread or will the eventually result in two threads?.
if it has cleared the first tick "uploading post" can you safely click away from the page?.
servers seem a bit slow recently?.

there's another odd bug I should probably report, where sometimes my excellent posts don't seem to gather the number of thumbs up likes they deserve.
This has been a cause of concern to me for some time....if fact I wonder if the processing cues have been caused by so many people hitting the like button at once?!
i believe this has happened with myself in the past ..,๐๐

There's TrueBlood and Then There's TrueMod
by Hadriel injust want to take a moment and mention how exceptional the moderator is here @simon.
been on many many forums and you'll be pressed to find a more fair person.
he creates a safe environment where the chicanery is a minimum.

Hadriel grow up.... You tried to throw your weight around and make threats on exjwreddit and because they are fair enough to listen to both sides of the story you are pissed.
your behaviour is extremely transparent.

Evolution is a Fact #11 - Tiktaalik
by cofty inone of the biggest gulfs that life has had to cross was the transition from sea to dry land.. fish have conical shaped heads, reptiles have flat heads.
fish have no necks; their heads are attached to their shoulders by a series of bony plates.
land-dwelling animals all have necks; their heads can move independently of their shoulders.

Love that book - "you're inner fish "by Neil Shubin!!!
Some folks still sport vestigial gill " holes" behind their ears - what more do you want!!

Did you KNOW Ray and Cynthia or the legal copyright holder? Only a few maybe had limited contact.
by blondie ini have known all of them over the last 15 years, talked at length with them, and knew what their wishes were, the copyright holder and spouse spent even more time with them socially and helping them set up their arrangements for when ray and cynthia passed.
i don't believe that anyone else on this board or others was a confidant.
there is no need to prove it to anyone but the copyright office which is satisfied with this.

Diogenesister
LMSA Can't we just respect the copyright here and stop bending over backwards to defend some clown who slapped his logo on the back and pirated copies in an attempt to promote his website?
My point is he has admitted fault AND made restitution to the owners satisfaction, what do you want - blood? The people who started this shit storm had links to it on their YouTube channel - I have received links to it even on this site in the past. The complaints are hypocritical and WAY out of proportion to the deed done.
That ' clown' has helped way more people out than many folks ever will.

I need some advise
by Lost his mind infollowing is a letter i am going to send to the entire family both jw and non.
i would like to get your advice on whether i should do it.
my husband has told me before to voice my complaints but i have yet.
-
Diogenesister
Not sure - but I guess they must be in laws? In which case your husband needs to not put it all on you to do this alone. You BOTH need to send it as a united front - they will soon get the message then!!!!!
I wish you all the best and know that feeling - just cos you are/ were dubs they think they have a right to interfere!

Spokane 2016 Convention dates - "darkest weekend"
by OrphanCrow ini came across an odd remark concerning the booking of a jw convention in an article from spokane.. visit spokaneโs cheryl kilday: meeting expectations.
since cheryl kilday returned to the northwest 5 1/2 years ago, the spokane convention center has been expanded, a 750-room hotel has opened across from it, and a number of smaller investments have added dining and shopping options in the cityโs core.
all of the changes have added options or improved the pitch for spokane for kilday, who as the president and ceo of visit spokane heads up the organization tasked with bringing more people and events to town.

Kinda hoping for the wacky stuff!
