The next person that proclaims that Windows Server is easier to setup than a Linux server, I will happily make the following proclamation to them:MY ASS!The background for this proclamation is that we suffered a dead Active Directory/Exchange server. Backups would have worked, had the two hardware platforms been the same, however, the original machine was a MPS multi-processor system, and the

Those words are debated as being an example of how Christians should live, and as an example of the watering down of Christianity. Simply performing a Google search on those words will easily provide both sides of the argument. Each side provides biblical passages to support their view. Each will argue the use of language and of the Hebrew and Greek words, and their definitions and context

Back when Marty and I were dating is when I first heard the song "Faithless Heart" by Amy Grant. At the time, I did not like the song, but I could not figure out why. I was listening to the CD with that song on it this morning. I thought about the words. Now, I know why I didn't like the song, it was about who I was, and how I felt.In the song, the singer is daydreaming about a different life

The BeginningThere was God. Yep, that was about it. But seeing that God is omnipresent and omnipotent, there is always God. However, this situation was just God, nothing else.Around 4000 BC:God made light. First day done. The next four days he spent making heaven and earth; the land and seas; plants; the stars and planets; then the sun and moon; marine life; and birds. On the sixth day, he

I have been a step dad for 9 1/2 years now (8 1/2 years officially) and a dad for almost 6 years. (Just for the record, no, there is no inherent difference.) Over the years, I have thought about what it means to be a dad. Let's face it, as a dad, you will be confronted with many things, sometimes things that would normally disgust you, dirty diapers, spit-up, vomit. Then there is the lost

My best friend just had a little boy. Well, it was actually his wife, but he played a big part in it also.Times like this make me miss not being closer.It is hard to keep up with friends when they are 2,500 driving miles away. Then again, being just a dozen or so miles away might as well be across the country sometimes.For a while before we moved, we had limited contact with our friends.

I've been thinking about the nature of love recently. I don't believe that there is just one person out there for me. Maybe just one person is the way it is for other people, but not me. I also believe that I am able to love more than one person at a time. I have been reflecting on this because my wife and I are polyamorous (which are those two things I just mentioned in a nutshell) and are

Recently on the Poly Match Maker web site, someone posted about master/slave relationships and asked how this was not abuse and manipulation, and why so many poly people thought that it was OK. There have been numerous responses, and some have been quick to point out that abuse can happen in any relationship, and that D/S relationships are not abuse by their very definition. However, no one has

When I first started applying for positions in Eugene, Oregon, I found that everyone has this weird practice of including what they called "Supplemental Questions." This is supposed to be the usual scenario questions to get your response, or to see what direct experience you've had.Personally, these things freaked me out. On one hand, I wanted to provide enough detail and information, good and

My previous post looked at couples who are looking to add the mythical single hot bi babe to their relationship. To be fair, sometimes the women in the relationships are truly interested in only having another female. This can be because they want to explore that aspect of their sexuality, or because they feel their need for male affection is already be taken care of. Other, however, may truly

If you have read posts on poly bulleting boards, yahoo groups, or any poly sites, you will have heard the term Hot Bi Babe. Often times, this is used by bisexual women in a joking manner to themselves or each other. They are joking about the couples who are looking for a bisexual woman.You will find these couples throughout the polyamory community, covering all aspects of polyamory. This

Well, you have gone through the worries, the fears, the doubts, and now you both have come to the realization that you are polyamorous. Now what?You may find yourself in an odd place. Especially if you are not just looking for a quick bang, but looking for loving relationships. If you were looking for a quick bang, then that would be easier, in a sense. You would just look for someone you

More specifically, my son has a disorder that is part of the Austism Spectrum of Disorders. Many people have the wrong impression of autism, mostly due to the fact that the only type of autism that gets serious time in TV and film is the severe cases.

In 1995, Jerry McGuire hit movie screens around the nation. The show will always be remembers for it catchy lines like "show me the money," "you complete me," and "you had be at hello." Those lines, however, are not the crux of the film. The story really centered around Jerry's realization that the sports management company he worked for, needed to refocus. What they needed was:fewer clients.

I was reading over the usage guidelines for a local forest, and found this excerpt from the page:What To Do If Lost: Keep calm. Do not walk aimlessly. Trust your map and compass.

Now everybody and their mother is getting into the reasons why Vista is going to be the next “big thing” or why it seriously blows.The requirements for Vista is an 800MHz machine with 512MB of memory, and 15GB of free Hard Drive space.

During that year I decided that my wife was right and we needed to move, a hurricane hit near where we lived, and we did move, we moved 2,500 miles away.We used to live along the gulf coast on the Texas side of the Texas-Louisiana border. I was a computer and network administrator, making around 34,000 a year.

Back when I was just a lad of almost 17, I met a wonderful and amazing girl, Alice. We first met at a science and math contest at a local high school. While in the science test portion, I had made friends with a guy from her school, and was later hanging out with him. He introduced me to all of them, but I didn't get a chance to talk to her.A month or so later, I was at the district science
