In Kansas City, they were expecting 17,000 and their attendance was only 15,000, so I would say having to travel farther and stay in hotels is definitely taking its toll.

How Would Your Being Disfellowshipped Affect You?
by minimus inwould you care?.
would there be any repercussions?.

The ONLY way it would affect me is that I would lose all contact with my family. And it looks like that is same for everyone.
That is why their shunning practice works so well. Nobody cares about any other repercussions.
It is a cruel institution that works exactly as they want it to.

What would be your favorite job if you could do anything.?
by new hope and happiness inon the basis that most of us realise the w.t wasnt really the best " job" or way to spend our days, it would be fun to find out what people would really have liked to have done with there lifes and if this is still possible.
or maybe its not even a very realistic ambition just a dream.
in my dreams i stay at home all day and make a living from being a professional artist.maybe i need a phycholgist?.

List of Trademark Applications made by the Watchtower (JW.ORG was Refused!)
by Wild_Thing intl;dr: jw.org and jw library is not trademarked because the us patent office keeps refusing their application.
i don't think either will ever be trademarked, as their design currently stands.
jw rank & file can make all the cheap promotional crap they want and the watchtower can't do a thing about it (legally anyway.).

Actually, if you do a search for all logos with JW in there, there are a few. I think it's funny they rejected it based on the similarity to JW PLAYER, when it looks nothing like it. JW PLAYER does like a whole like JW LIBRARY, which they are also trying to copyright, though.
It said in the paperwork, that the reason they rejected it based on similarities is because they are just looking at the JW part of it. The papers said what comes after it is not important because most consumers will look at the JW part first and associate the logo with the wrong company.

Is it just me? Does no one else think it is significant that they are trying to trademark a logo that is different from the one they are actually using? The dot is in the wrong place. And in a trademarked logo, that little change is significant, I think.
I think it was just an accident because they are idiots!

I posted about this a few days ago. It is not dead in the water yet. They have until September to reply and possibly get it patented.
