I’ll tell ya what, I really wish 90% of the world would “switch” so that Apple would be the “Great Evil” and then they would get the brunt of all the “Monopoly!” complaints and as you imply, get all the virus attacks! Apple would be blaimed for all the virus’ floating around and would have to consider “forcing” updates on their users!

Sheesh!

What I find really amazing is all the Apple people completely forgetting that back when Apple Mac was really big (Mac 128K era), Mac’s were getting twice the number of virus’ that IBM PC’s were. I can remember quite well having to clean many a Mac at the Hospital I worked at due to a virus that spread when a floppy was inserted into the machine. It’s nice that Apple folks can forget so easily…

For those without a Bible handy…

1 Corinthians 2:14 :: New International Version (NIV)

1 Corinthians 2
14 The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Yeah, that’s the same statement your professional “psychics” and UFO Nuts like to make as well. One of the best ways to counter criticism is to claim the person making the criticism isn’t capable of understanding what he’s criticizing. Convenient to be sure, but a cop-out at best.

I’ve always been partial to counter the citing of 1 Corinthians 2:14 with yet another Bible verse: Proverb 14:15 which says, “The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.”

I understand perfectly, I just do not agree. The bible is a book written by men, interpreted by men, reproduced on printing presses built by men. All of the stories in this book were accounts given by...you got it, men.

Have you ever played that game where a classroom full of people whisper a message from one person to the next and when you finally get to the last person the message is usually so horribly mangled that even the basic message has been lost? Now imagine playing it with billions of people over two thousand years. You obviously have more faith in mankind than I do.

Come on guys.  Are you going to argue the God thing forever?  Either you believe in God or you don’t. If you can still find your Bible, try looking up 1Corinthians 2:14.  It’s not your fault if you don’t understand.

I have to agree with you; the two latest big worm/virus/variant/scares were blown way out of proportion by lack of patching that was already available.

However, I am a bit of a freak when it comes to internet security; I try to not allow any software to “automatically” download or install anything on my computer—including Microsoft. I also try to read up on the latest “fixes” before I install them.  Sometimes the “cure” is worse than the “disease.”

So, I will keep visiting and downloading myself.

There really is not excuse NOT to.

Catholic Priest Arrested For Stealing

CLAY COUNTY, FL - Investigators arrested Catholic Priest Moises Palaroan on Monday for allegedly stealing more than $400,000 dollars from his church and friends reported the Associated Press!

Palaroan has been the head of the St. Williams church since 1996. Parishioners say over seven years he has helped build the congregation and the youth group. They say they were shocked when they learned that he was arrested and accused of taking money from the church.

However, the catholic Diocese did an annual audit while Palaroan was on sabbatical. The audit revealed thousands of dollars missing from the church and checks that Palaroan had written to himself.

The State Attorney’s Office says Palaroan wrote checks to himself. Investigators say he also misrepresented himself to get loads from friends.

Parishioners say they will continue to stand behind their priest no matter what, even though the money they gave to the church may have been misspent.

Representatives from the Catholic Diocese say that Father Palaroan will not be able to function as a priest in their diocese until the criminal investigation is complete.

The 52-year-old priest is now charged with grand theft. He remains in custody in Clay County on $100,000 bond.

Well, yeah, but that’s because they didn’t know. I can’t blame the guy for being honest (which is rare in this administration it seems) because, hey, they didn’t know and didn’t want to speculate. Probably because he knew as soon as he did start speculating the news media would short-stroke it all over the place.

Margi, the secret lies in CSS. It’s a lot easier to do than you think. You can basically use CSS to alter what any of the standard HTML tags do when you use them.

I did see the head of the Dept of Energy in an interview I believe was on Fox on Sunday.  He was asked if this could of been an act of terrorism or a hacker..and he said “we don’t know what the cause was.” So of course they zeroed in on that...and he just continued to say “we don’t know”.  Not a reassuring answer.

I also caution you about being so judgmental Friar John, for it is also written that he who judges shall not judge lest he be judged by a judge...here come da judge...here come da judge…or something like that.

I believe that even if that young girl had been stabbed in the stomach while she was being eaten by a shark and being hit by lightning, there is no way she could have gotten pregnant from oral sex.  For one, since stomach acid (HCl) will eat through metal, I doubt those little wiggly fellas (sperm) could have survived.  If not for the lining, the acid would eat our stomachs up!  Wow, that almost sounds like “intelligent design!!!” Second, it’s a little implausible that a girl who is prepped to give oral sex isn’t prepped to do the “horizontal mambo”!  I would put that one in the “Urban Legend” category.

Definitely a difference between them. Thunderbird is entirely separate from the Mozilla browser/news/composer project...as is Firebird separate from Mozilla browser (Firebird has functions that Mozilla standalone does not have natively available).
As far as mt.cgi goes it’s because the code is written IE-specific (or rather, code that mozilla and opera and Safari don’t support yet..okay okay that makes it IE only).
The issue has come up with the mozilla team, but looks like there is no hurry to support it since it’s not standards compliant coding (it takes advantage of IE code, again).
If six apart would just look in to it there is code that works on both moz and IE (I searched, found it, and incorporated it in to my home-grown blogging scripts...it works just like mt.cgi does under IE). I suppose a decent MT hacker (like the gals over at scriptygoddess.com) could do it.

No kidding...is ‘Tha’ short for ‘that’, which of course makes me wonder if he is referencing the 1966 series ‘That Girl’ (http://www.techedlab.com/thatgirl/tgseason5.mp3) with Marlo Thomas (picture Gangsta running through the streets holding a large floppy hat to his head so it does not blow away and kicking up his heels in a flowing dress, throwing his baby-9 into the air...).

If that isn’t it then just how lazy do you have to be NOT to stretch your finger an inch to hit the right letter? He used the same number of letters so there was not abbreviation going on to save precious typing seconds so why not ‘Thu’ or ‘Thi’, roughly the same sounds, same number of letters, and more importantly still misspelled (hence it is still gangsta-cool). Hell, why not go mediaeval on our asses and type ‘Thee’, he could set some mean pipe hitting Moors on us who could then to go to work with torches and pliers.

Okay, now what was this about when I started?

I’ve read in the past someplace that there have been modern examples of “virgin” births. One case involved a teenage girl who had recently engaged in oral sex with a boy and was later stabbed in the stomach with a knife. She survived the attack, but wound up pregnant when the ejaculate in her stomach spilled into her torso after being stabbed. I tried to find a web reference to this, but haven’t been able to locate it. Snopes doesn’t have it listed as an urban legend, but the validity is still questionable. Still, I can see where something such as that could happen and would technically qualify as a “virgin birth” with a rational explanation for it.

Given the time period the events in the Bible are supposed to take place in I wonder how anyone from that period would be able to tell one way or the other whether or not a particular event would qualify as a virgin birth.

What if a woman never had sex and then gave birth.
This would clearly be a virgin birth.

But what if she had sex, had a child naturally,
then gave birth later with out having sex.
She wouldn’t be a virgin, but it would be a non-sexually procreated child.

Maybe we need a new scienfic term here.
Para-quasi-virginoidal birth.


Norbizness pic

I think that these polls should have an “incredulous poller” function. It would go something like this:

Q: Do you believe, literally, in virgin birth?
A: Yes.
Q: (furrows brow) Really? You’re not going to hell. Come on now. Really.
A: Sure I do.
Q: Wow. OK.

Hopefully, the incredulous poller could reduce the numbers to the 60% range.

Now I’m assuming that Thunderbird is jusdt the mail portion of Moz extracted and compiked to run seperately, but I don’t find he junk filter working all that well for me. I use SAproxy and Moz junk filter and between them I’d say they get about 98% of SPAM but when I turn SAproxy off Moz misses quite a few. I wonder if there are some differences between Thunderbird and what comes as part of the complete Moz package?
