Hi joe134cd
I know with the recent convention they had in this country you could arrange your own flights. But you had to stay in the assigned motels, and pay the asked for price.
I understand that is the practise nowadays - a selection of hotels of varying prices, organise your own journey (flights, ship etc) - logistically they really need groups together in various hotels for ease of coach transportation both to the social and sightseeing events and activities and for transport to the Convention venue. They'll normally meet you of the plane or ship and provide transport to your hotel. They'll also normally have a manned information desk at each hotel.

A change in understanding Deu.6:4
by no-zombie inwhile i may be wrong, i believe that today's wt study article was the first one to say the deu.
6:4 was not written to refute the trinity.
i found it odd to say the least, since for all the years i've being going to meetings (over 50+ in actuality) the verse written by moses, has always been used to counter the trinitarian gods of the egyptians and the trinity today.

Second in the Medal Table - Well Done TeamGB
by konceptual99 incan't believe it - gb is currently second in the medal table, with more golds and silvers combined than even china.
given the size of the nation it's an incredible achievement and we have won in some sports where other countries typically dominate.
i can't imagine we will stay in second but i am happy to enjoy the moment.. well done to the whole of team gb!.

Hi NVR2L8!
That's all you need if you are going to dunk 1 or 2 kids at the circuit assembly...the good ol' days of mass baptism are over.
I think they baptised 500 or so this way at the Melbourne International in 2014 - see photos in OP

Howto: get access to scientific papers
by Anders Andersen insince most people are not aware on how to get (free*) access to scientific papers and journals, so here's a short list of resources.. search http://scholar.google.com for the paper.
maybe you'll get lucky and find it somewhere for free.. if you can only find a paid for version of the paper, get the title, doi (sort of like an isbn number) and link to the download page of the paper on the paysite.. if you don't know the doi, find it by searching your paper's title on http://crossref.org.
go to the libgen site (links here: https://sites.google.com/site/themetalibrary/library-genesis ) and search for the paper.

Quantity or Quality - Which?
Quantity or quality - which impresses you most? Fallen human nature is prone to be impressed by quantity rather than by quality. Superlatives as to size or number may appeal to inherent selfishness in man. But quantity is not everything......
