does the watchtower allow gambling if the winnings are returned?
http://www.newkerala.com/news.php?action=fullnews&id=15686serena returns money won in gambling .
new york: tennis star and tv actress serena williams returned her winnings in gambling recently as she is a jehovah's witness and it is against her faith to gamble.. .
What would have happened if she had lost?
Would the Hilton have had to give the money back because it is against her religion to gamble?
What a a lying bitch!!! God I can't stand the Williams sisters and every time they play I want the other player to win. They are so childish and such hypocritical schmucks...

5 bucks a gallon for gas?
expert sees it in 2006 .
lol....and I was laughed at when I made these predictions and Oil was $30 a barrel....where are the idiots who disagreed now?
At any rate i hope it goes to $10 a gallon and it hurts like hell. Then the US will DO something about alternatives and we will remove dependence on the middle east and they can go and pound sand and kill each other because we won't need them any longer.

the anthropic principle .
by dr. norman geisler .
the anthropic principle (greek: anthropos, "human being") states that the universe was fitted from the very first moment of its existence for the emergence of life in general and human life in particular.
So how do you understand this?
Since you never expressed any of your own thoughts is it worthwhile debating the issue with you? Will you be able to offer rebuttal to the counter-points?
does jwd fill a void in your life or does the internet in general do so?.
or do you think life is made up of lots of little voids we fill with tv, internet and so on.. what would you be doing if it wasn't for tv or the internet?.
is the issue how much time you spend on one thing?
No it does not....my void is unfillable. I am beyond redemption or hope.
last night my ex boyfriend finally admitted to me that he cheated on me whilst we were going out.
we split up about 7 years ago.
what is irking me most is that i've asked him before if he had and he totally denied it.
short answer: dump him
i just really need to vent here.........i'm just so f**king tired of never having any extra money!!
all's i do is work to pay god damn bills......i just checked the balance on my chequing acct.
and i've got just under $900.00 to last me three weeks.
What am I doing wrong??
Sounds fairly simple to me. But I know you will hate my answer....
You are doing what I call "renting a life style". From what you describe it sounds like you are making a choice to have a car that you cannot afford. In your shoes I would either find a way to earn more money or to by a cheap used car without a payment and only carry collision insurance. If you feel you are tapped out with regard to increasing income then it is likely you will never get ahead with your chosen expenses.
My answer is unpopular but its true.

now for all the scientists out there this is not a question of proof or anything along those lines.
for my part i choose to believe in a god because i honestly believe there is one (though i did start doubting for a little while) i've always felt that there was more to our existance on earth - and that doesn't stem from me wanting to live forever or as a spirit, as i don't even know if that will happen.
i also believe in him because many many times when i could not carry on, on my own strength, i managed to pulled through.
Satan is God.
When you read the Bible who is threatening to kill everyone? God or Satan?
Who required that offspring be killed to redeem sin? God or Satan?
Of course since I don't believe in a devl or a satan....I have to decale that I am God!!
personally, i have nothing against executing wanton murderers.

hello fellow geeks,.
i have a question regarding visibility of devices inside a network behind a router running network address translation.
i have a router providing internet access to several machines / devices on a private (192.168) network in my house.
SNG,
You have a single point of fallure in the scenario you described. For a motivated hacker if they can hack the router then they have routable access to any connected machines on the inside perimeter. The short answer is that it all depends how paranoid you want to be. Anything more sophisticated hardware solution will cost money as you will likely add additional computers and routers to segment the network.
Bottom line: I would doubt that any hacker might be motivated enough to hack your router.
On the other hand If I was motivated to hack you (BTW I am not motivated) I would not attack the "wall" but would use a "trojan" or "worm" that would be granted permission by you and have it log keystrokes or scan the drives on your internal pcs. You are well served to pay closer attention to your email and surfing habits as points of vulnerability vs guarding the outer perimeter.
Good luck,
Donkey
