AGM is not streamed live, but a download.
by SyntaxError1974 inthere have been several posts where individuals are asking if it is possible to hack into and watch the agm as it is streamed to the conventions.
i say it is not streamed live like many are assuming, but a recorded download played for the audience.. why?
a live stream has many possible points of failure.

interestingly, the idea of 'curing' homosexuality with gay sex is nothing new. it's not right, but it's not like this guy had some brilliant revelation.

Faders shunned now?
by Sammy Jenkis inhi all so my family had their c.a.
last weekend and my mother dropped this one on me, she'll now be treating me as a df'd person per info she received from a talk at the assembly.
apparently a fader should be treated as "bad association" given the fact they up and left the holy "truth" to splash around in vomit.. .

It's not 'policy' to shun them, but plenty of JWs will stop talking to faders. I don't hear from anyone in the hall except for my family. We don't get invited to parties or anything. There's only one family in the hall that invites us over once in a while. Even though it's obvious their goal is to 'encourage' us, I commend them for not completely ignoring me.

HOA suing us any help?
by Crazyguy injust thought i would ask in case any of you have had any experience with a home owners association.
i'm being sued for not paying dues and other fines and went to a mediation hearing a while ago.
we explianed that we we never informed of the hoa when we bought the home and never signed any agreement, infact i was very explicit with everyone involved in the buying proccess to make sure there was no hoa since i did not want to buy if there was one.

you should hire a lawyer instead of asking the internet.

I'd have to go digging through these forums and that's way too much effort for me.
But if you want to have some fun just make a general catch-all gay marriage thread and watch them roll in.

To be honest I've seen those same homophobic comments on this board in some recent gay marriage threads.

Security cameras inside & outside the Kingdom Hall ?
by gingerbread ini recently heard from a family member who is still active about the new security system in her kh.. during the installation of the digital projector on the auditorium's ceiling, she said that the brothers who came to install it (i'm assuming some from the regional bldg group) also installed security cameras.. she specifically mentions a computer screen at the sound box that shows live feeds of - the parking lot, the carport/drop-off, interior view of the entrance, the lobby and magazine counter & the 'little room' ( the 'elders room' with conference table, computer and printers, filing cabinets, library, etc).. has anyone seen or heard of these being installed in a local hall ?.
comments?.
ginger.

What type of area is the hall in? If it's an urban area or something with lots of crime that's not too far fetched as well as locking the front door. It is sorta weird to have other rooms with cameras. I'll have to ask around for some outside confirmation of this.
