Publishers' info in header probably refers to a place for Name, Cong, City; or something along those lines. In the front of some of the new publications there is a page that says "This copy belongs to..." and space for the person (Cong Publisher) to write their name and congregation info. A bit juvenile, reminds me of grade school.

District Convention ruminations
by sir82 inif y'all can stand one more dc thread, i thought i'd post some miscellaneous rumbling ramblings about this year's edition.. to protect my privacy, i'd prefer not to disclose the location - pm me if interested.. ***** attendance, as in all other years i can remember, was much lower on friday than the other days.
in fact, the attendance was 22% lower on friday than on sunday.
so, as usual, they hammered home the point about the importance of attending all 3 days....on friday!

My sister told me about the interviews re. animals in the new system. One interviewee was a child, spoke about wanting some wild animal as a pet. The other interviewee was a middle aged woman, looked forward to not having fear of snakes and petting one in the new system. My sister was surprised, she thought the interviews were rather silly.
She also mentioned a resolution was read on Sunday. Did anyone else catch this.

Will the switch to DTV affect WTS in U.S.
by doinmypart inin feb 2009 digital television (dtv) will be introduced in the u.s. i've read this will have an affect on wireless microphone users at certain frequencies.. will this change/impact congregations that use wireless microphones during the meetings?
what about district conventions and assemblies that broadcast their programs on the radio for the hard of hearing?.

Google is my friend. I should have searched before asking the questions.
The FCC approved use of "white space" and this has theater groups, churches, sport franchises, and others upset.
I hope this becomes a major expense for the WTS...having to convert back to wired microphones. I hope, too, they won't be able to broadcast their assembly and convention programs over the airwaves.

I am an active elder and I voted today!
by outofthebox intoday is a proud day for me.
i became part of my fellow citizens in this country by casting my vote.
it was a thrilling experience (more like a disney ride really, since the line wasn't that long).

I know 2 current elders that voted (we're related). One of them was released from U.S. Bethel earlier this year. He registered soon after getting home and early voted a couple of weeks ago. The other elder called me this morning and told he me voted today.
I'm no longer an elder, but I voted.

I got mine about a month ago. Another step away from the crazy WT world. This will be my first time to vote, feels strange to be saying that considering my age. Oh well, gotta start somewhere.
Purps - I just caught up on some past posts, and saw that you're out in FL. Enjoy it girl! Hopefully you'll dry out from all that rain and enjoy the beach again. Congrats.

WTS Will Stop Charging Interest on Loans
by doinmypart inthe org will stop charging interest on kh building fund loans effective sep 1, 2008. current loan payment amounts will remain the same so the loans can be paid off sooner.. congregations should continue to donate to the kh building fund, and publishers can donate directly to the fund by sending donations directly to the branch.
congregations are encouraged to forward surplus congregation and operating funds to the branch until the time those funds are needed by the congregation (this was actually read to the congregation...talk about full disclosure).. this is for all branches and congregations, not just the u.s..

The letter is dated June 4, 2008. It was read at this week's Service meeting.
Also, the reason given for not charging interest was "to be consistent" throughout all of the branches. Perhaps this has something to do with their non-profit status. Would charging interest in some countries cause them to lose their status? Which countries?
