wanda nevada (brooke shields) a 13 year old girl and a man 30 some years old (peter fonda) not only expressing their love for each other, but forming a relationship and end up running away together, yes a little creepy.
couldn't sleep last night so around 4 o'clock it was on....the movie made in 1979 what the hell was hollywood thinking when making this movie, a love story romance/westerns......
Fred Franztone: How the hell does being with a 17 year old make you a paedophile?
Depends on which state you're in.
Wasanelder Once might be in California for example.

i did a quick search and this doesn’t appear to have been commented on here, but if it has been, i apologise in advance for starting an unnecessary thread.. regarding a change to a song title, the study article on page 7 paragraph 17 of november 2017 watchtower explained, “the change of the title “guard your heart” to “we guard our hearts” was most considerate.
in the audience at our meetings, assemblies, and conventions are many new ones, interested ones, young ones, and sisters who by singing the words would be put in the awkward position of telling others what to do.
so the title and the lyrics were modified.”.
thanks
there is some more discussion about this here

for the second month no jw.org tv show, but the annual meeting this time... .
g..
an 'old style' service report for 2017 has been published on jw org.
so far it appears to be only for igbo language.. https://www.jw.org/ig/akwukwo/akwụkwọ/2017-service-year-report-of-jehovahs-witnesses-worldwide/.
i wonder if this is a fuck up, or other languages will be posted later, or igbo readers can have this while others can't?.
Anders Anderson: I wonder if this is a fuck up, or other languages will follow, or Igbo can have what others can't?
It has already been released in English.

There is also the following table, with numerical increases and decreases shown:
i will soon be done with my jw charity analysis project.
can we make this an official thread for uk congregations being merged/disbanded so i can update the list.
i will post the results when finished.. truthseeker.
slimboyfat: Ardrishaig
yeah, doesn't seem to be listed on JWorg - but their charity details/accounts look up to date? They might have just been disbanded 1 Jan 2018?
cofty: Morpeth K/hall was put on the market and merged with Ashington.
That's what I mean - according to JWorg BOTH congregations are still active - what seems to have happened was one congregation moved their meetings to another KH - the congregation didn't actually merge as per OP question.

I don't think there have been many - TBH, most of the feedback seems to be along the lines of congregations moving to another KH, rather than actually merging or being disbanded.
Slightly OT, but below is from an old post of mine - comparing US to UK
There are THREE very big differences:
Firstly, in real terms, there are 43% LESS JWs in Britain than the US when compared to population - this means that a US town of 40,000 will have a congregation of 150, but in Britain the congregation would only have 87 publishers.
Secondly, as a whole, the UK is 800% more densely populated than the US - even the whole of England EXCLUDING London, is more densely populated than the WHOLE of the US (including New York State, but excluding New Jersey and Rhode Island) - but this means that people in the UK are MUCH LESS willing to travel.
Thirdly, in the UK gas costs 245% MORE than in the US (East Coast) - so ANY 'extra' car travel is much more expensive

truthseeker: Anniesland congregation in Scotland
It is still listed on JWorg as a congregation. They host a foreign language group, but otherwise they do not share their KH.
It would surprise me if the rumour was actually a possible move of the congregation to the next nearest KH, also with just one congregation using it, that is only a 10 minute drive away.
That would mean that the Anniesland KH could be sold, but the congregation would remain, they would just meet at another KH.
so these countries roughly constitute europe.. here's how well they did in 2017 vs 2016:.
2017 peak pubs.
2016 peak pubs.
sir82: I don't see how to get the 2017 by-country report on jw. org
Home Page > About Us > third item down
On right hand side, under download options, select PDF
Download it, open it and view it - it is a five page document.

steve2: The absence of reporting country-by-country Memorial attendances for 2017 is also a first in these once slavishly detailed JW reports.
The WT has provided country-by-country Memorial attendances for 2017

berrygerry: Of course they do. What other outfit knowingly counts people twice (or even more)?
Here's a chart showing visually how it used to work out:
i need to know for family reasons.
i don’t attend much anymore.
hoser.
snapdragon4: It's all on JWorg, about us section, meetings, location near you, list conventions and assemblies
Doesn't appear to be yet (Jan 3, 2018) - often the WT will announce to local congregations before it is put onto the JWorg website...
