Let us look at the following Verses in the Bible: "If a man takes a wife and, after laying with her, dislikes her and slanders her and gives her a bad name, saying, 'I married this woman but when I approached her, I did not find proof of her virginity,' then the girl's father and mother shall bring proof [how do you think they would do that?] that she was a virgin to the town elders at the gate. The girl's father will say to the elders, 'I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he dislikes her. Now he has slandered her and said, 'I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.' But here is the proof of my daughter's virginity.' Then her parents shall display the cloth [the father would literally stick his two fingers covered with a piece of cloth into his daughter's vagina before she gets married and keep that bloody cloth for as long as his daughter is married] with before the elders of the town, and the elders shall take the man and punish him. (From the NIV Bible, Deuteronomy 22:13-18)"

Here is a more clear translation from Hebrew Resources: "The girl's father and mother shall produce the evidence of the girl's virginity before the elders of the town at the gate. And the girl's father shall say to the elders, "I gave this man my daughter to wife, but he had taken an aversion to her; so he has made up charges, saying, 'I did not find your daughter a virgin.' But here is the evidence of my daughter's virginity!" And they shall spread out the cloth before the elders of the town. (From the New JPS translation, Deuteronomy 22:15-17)"

The New JPS translation of Deuteronomy 22:15-17 makes it even more clear about having the parents of the girl displaying the bloody piece of cloth before the elders of the town.

According to the Talmud, the cloth should be "A cloth of less than 3 square finger-breadths. (From the Talmud, Eruvin 29b-30a and Succah 16a)", and before it is being used, it should be "soft, woolen and clean. (From the Talmud, Niddah 17a)"

Have you read many different sources. Are you aware there is a lot of dis- information our there.....Like the pentagon missle crap or the remote control airplane stuff. Do you know that 20 to 30% of the stuff out there is dis-information intentionally diseminated to discredit the real glaring circumstantial evidence Do you base your beliefs on the fact that our governement would never do such a thing. Have you ever heard of Operations Northwoods? Can I at least get you to look at a really impartial website? I am not a wacko conspiracy nut. I am a lawyer and a scholor. There are polls done showing that a good percentage of Americans believe that the true events of 911 havent been told yet. This stuff is slowly entering the mainstream.....Theres a lot of BULL out there but there also is a lot of really provocative evidence .

Have an open mind and check out these websites.....

Why does rain not really hurt us when it travels at such a velocity from the sky? You would think that as far as it travels with gravity pushing it down that rain drops would be like tiny bullets...serious answers only please.

The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly.
He was 71. Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin.
Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch.
The grave site was piled high with flours. Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times he still was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions. Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, two children, John Dough and Jane Dough, plus they had one in the oven. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

I run a small business on an industrial estate with no heavy machinery and single phase electricity. My landlord has a large meter which feeds smaller meters in each unit. He bills the occupants monthly for electricity, adding his own standing charge, climate change levy, and administration charge all priced per unit. I didn't think anything of this, as my bills have been reasonable for my use, they all had readings, and I assumed he was getting these from the larger meter. He read my meter (which has no identification number) for the first time in two years yesterday. He called me later that after noon to say that there was a TEN THOUSAND pound difference between his estimates and the actual reading. Nowhere on my bills did it say they were estimated, and i never thought to check the readings against his bills as I should have done. There is no way i have used this much electricity, I need to get my meter independantly tested, and I have no idea who the main supplier is. Anyone help?
