For the specials, just open up a currently listed special; then in the address line change "06oct" to "07jan". To change between the host and guest specials change the "hs" to "gs". You can do this to find out Feb's specials too.
The Consultant News for November can be called up the same way. Open up Oct's newsletter and in the address line change "oct" to "nov".
Thanks, Linda

rennea said:I have an address bar as well but when I click the the specials it starts up adobe reader and doesn't let me change, it takes away the address screen.
Oh well I'll live
If you have the plug-in installed, rather than the full version of the reader, it should open in a browser window with the address bar.

right click on the download link for the december host special and choose
Copy Shortcut.
Open up a new browser window and do Ctrl V to paste it in. It won't automatically open up Acrobat, so change the month to Jan07, etc... and they hit enter. It will open up acrobat with the jan & feb special.
It works, I just tried it.
