ToaCx4 - Thoughts of a Crazy, Constitutionally Conservative Christian

"Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place." Psalm 51:6 (NIV)

"It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God--that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption." 1 Corinthians 1:30 (NIV)

"I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better." Ephesians 1:17 (NIV)

May the Lord give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so you may know Him better. I pray the Lord Jesus, in whom you live and move and have your being, who has become for you the very wisdom from God, would impart to you today His truth, His wisdom, His righteousness, His holiness, His redemption, and His great love (Acts 17:28).

Lord, we humbly acknowledge before you today that our wisdom comes not from our own knowledge, but only through you-only through your impartation of the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in our inner parts, in the deepest, most hidden portion of our soul. Lord, the greatest desire of our heart is to know you better. Enlighten us, guide us and lead us in the path of true knowledge. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

I'm one of the mods of phoenixfndrpg. And I had a few questions about tweaking a few things in our S2FlexiSquares layout.

[1]Can I include a picture in my links list next to my link? (Example: [image] Link)

[2] Is there a way I can add another box to my sidebar?

Its been awhile since I fussed with FlexiSquares. I'm functional in HTML and CSS.

Feel free to point me to any tutorials/guides/how tos.

Thanks for you help ahead of time.

So look what happened when I tried to install VMWare Workstation on Windows 2008 Server IA64. Guess what I think will? VirtualBox! (Which, given Sun Microsystem's control of it, makes my plan especially nefarious...) So now I'm going to install Ubuntu 8.04 IA64 and see about compiling it on that architecture.

Ultimately, I'll end up using IntegrityVM (think ESX hypervisor vs Workstation, or better yet, Solaris Containers [big] Zones) providing my rx2600 do that - but knowing what I now know, I bet I can coax it into working.

And sadly once again, Google is only filled with simple answers to common questions. Nothing (and I mean nothing) I search for regarding any of this returns an answer. The good news is I will make my own answers - the bad news is once I submit this post, within three minutes Google will start displaying my own post to me as a valid return.

Such a burden I carry.

“And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.”- Ephesians 1:9-10

Maybe it's just because ruin porn is so incredibly popular that I hate it so.

In the 1700's when people lived in shabby huts, they painted shinning edifices. In the 2000's when people all live in shining edifices, they photograph shabby huts. Go figure.

“This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing.”- Romans 13:6

“He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”- 2 Corinthians 3:6

Since it is 10pm and I still need/want to write 2,000 words before I go to sleep - you all share your quotes with me today.

“[Submission to the Authorities] Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.”- Romans 13:1

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of HIM who called you out of darkness into HIS Wonderful Light.”- 1 Peter 2:9

Good Morning,

It’s been awhile since I posted anything substantial. But for the moment that won't happen.  Some stuff has been going on that I want to talk about first, then I'll get to the post's of substance.

 

( Updating-ness... )

 

 I’ve hurt a lot of people in the last several years.  I know that it is pretty unlikely most of them will see this, but for those of you who do, I truly am sorry.

I always was good at writing long posts “full of nothingness” as Tomas puts it but really it isn’t nothingness this time because this is much more than nothing. 

There is always more to be said, but I think I’ve said enough for this post.

This is a work in progess.  I expect I will probably write a post while I'm at work and add it to the bottom of this one.  There are a lot of things I could write about, but for the moment I'm going to try not to get to deep... at least initially.  However there is pretty much only one thing on my mind at the moment and although I will attempt to stay away from it, it is sure to come into my posts a lot from now on, at least until I recover.

Anyway, the reason I started this post was I was going to ask those of you out there who know their alcohol to give me suggestions as to how to use my unbelievable stash up.  I wasn't the wisest when I bought some of my booze and some of it is rather cheap.  I've since realized that the expencive stuff is expencive for a reason.  However... that doesn't help me use up the cheap stuff! :-)

The rum is so nasty I'm tempted to just dump it out.  My mother bought it for me when I was sick with a cold and she doesn't know anything about liquers and so although I told her what to buy she decided it cost to much and I could cope with a 5th of the cheapo stuff.  Yuck-o-la!  Doesn't even make a decent pina colada! lol

Bought a red wine 2 or 3 weeks ago that said it was "sweeter than all the others" so since I don't like sour drinks and it was on sale, I bought it.  It isn't all that sweet, it actually has a sour undertone to it, along with a bottle of homemade cherry wine that my grandma had in her frigerator before she died, I've tried it but again, don't like the sour undertone. 

Whenever I make wine, I almost never have that undertone so I am asking myself what in the world these people are doing to their wine to have this result!! lol.  I have my theories but really thats all they are.  They are 1) either putting to much yeast in their wine, or 2) not enough sugar.  Probably both.  However all theories aside I am still stuck with these two bottles of not so nice tasting wine! :-) Any suggestions as to what to do with them??

I also have a bottle of blackberry wine, but haven't opened it yet as it looked more costly and it was my grandma's.  The other bottle from grandma was already opened.

Tomas loves to tease me that I'm an alcoholic, but really I'm not.  I just like making drinks. I have thought of being a bartender other than I don't want to get "roughed up" or something from some guy.

Anyway...

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”- Ephesians 2:8-9

“[Living Sacrifices] Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.”- Romans 12:1

I'm working in a custom layout for a community I co-mod, eastwick_fic . The layout works just fine and I have everything where it should be except the sidebox is cutting through my banner. It should be placed below the navigation bar but when I put in the pixel height of my banner, it moved the sidebox up. The sidebox position is at absolute; I changed it to both top and bottom but that only messed up the layout. How do I fix this?

“For, "All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord stands forever." And this is the word that was preached to you.”- 1 Peter 1:24-25
