yes problemaddict thrift is good but the main reason why they are trying to cut back is the same reason that they got rid of district overseers some years back, shortage of money -

If they got rid of all the old teaching books they wouldnt have anything to fill the trolleys up with,one whole trolley was full of books printed in 2006 and one book was printed in 1998 -

Yes i go to lots of carts in different citys and its all about saving money any way they can. Giving away piles of nine year old teaching books,trying to get the general public to go on line rather than take things in print not only do thay save the money for the paper and ink but also the food that the people at the print works eat and the cost of distribution.If there are 50 people that work in the print room and help to pick and pack the booklets if they have $10s worth of food each per week thats $500 in total -

How soon would a new Elders' Book leak?
by Lemonp inas the shepherd the flock book is now in the public domain, if the .org decides to create a new manual, how soon will it be leaked?.
this is mostly a question for wifibandit, but anyone else who may know is welcome to answer.
would it be a matter of days before we get a .pdf?

how to make an impact with your life
If you go on youtube and look for Goodsearch.com you will see two reports that ABC news and FOX news have done about Goodsearch.com Over $11 million to charitys for free.Goodsearch is a search engine like google but donates half the profits of each to charity.
2)Freerice.com again have a look on youtube to see what NBC news has to say.Just by playing a simple word game and getting the answer right means that the sponsors pay for 10 grains of rice and because millions of people around the world are playing the grains mount up.
If you live in the uk go on any of these charitys websites and look for Everyclick.com
wwf uk,diabetes uk war on want.over £6 million raised for charity by people using everyclick as their search engine,if you just search with everyclick the charity portion goes into a big pot but if you wish you can enrol on your computer to a chosen charity.Im linked to a local cancer hospital over £2,000 raised just by people going on the web

The work is speeding up
by bradford ini don't have a great reference point on my observation other than my local area but i was wondering if this was a widespread thing.
... in the last two years in my former congregation there have been 6 people to disassociate for "apostasy," 6 disfellowshipped for various reasons, and numerous ones reproved.
these are just the ones i have heard about.
