Little johnny got on the bus, sat next to a man reading a book, and noticed he had his collar on backwards.

Little johnny asked why he wore his collar that way. The man, who was a priest, said, "I am a Father."

Little johnny replied, "My Daddy doesn't wear his collar like that." The priest looked up from his book and answered, "I am the Father of many." Little johnny said, "My Dad has 4 boys, 4 girls and two grand- children and he doesn't wear his collar that way.

The priest getting impatient said, "I am the Father of hundreds," and went back to reading his book.

Little johnny sat quietly...but on leaving the bus he leaned over and said, "Well, maybe you should wear your pants backwards instead of your collar."

I've heard the argument that since criminals will have guns "no matter what" private citizens need guns to protect their families. Studies and statistics show that a gun in the house is much more likely to kill a friend or family member than to be used on an intruder. So what is it that makes them so appealing?

Don't more guns equal more shooting? Pointing a gun at a criminal seems like it would make them more likely to react violently, if only in self-defense. Easy accessability means that there are more casual criminals and spontaneous shootings.

Personally I'm not as worried about hardened criminals as I am about being shot by someone who wields a gun like a toy. It's a highly efficient instrument of death that because of our current laws can be picked up by any disgruntled high school outcast or paranoid trigger-happy neurotic. Aren't there other ways to keep your family safe? Are they really that unsafe to begin with? Maybe I just haven't lived in a bad enough neighborhood.

This is a proof or ontological arguement, known as St Anselm's proof. It is simple deductive logic.

1) Any idea of God has to be of the greatest being that ever existed.

2) But the existence of something just in the mind is inferior to an existence in reality.

3) So, as God is the greatest conceivable being, He must exist in reality, as well as in the mind.

I've worked before in a female-dominated profession (veterinary hospital). I know that in a workplace with a lot of women there can be a lot of gossiping, lies, and hate-talk going around It personally drives me nuts. I mean, I know that's what women do. That's how they communicate and relieve their emotions. But it drove me crazy at the animal hospital.

So my question is, if I pursue nursing, while I go crazy working in a female-dominated workplace?

I know first impressions are supposed to be extrememly vital and I know that we kind of have to be face to face in order for me to make an actual impression, but I was just wondering..just by viewing these photos what can you conclude?
what type of person do you think i am just by viewing these pictures?
I'm not asking if I'm ugly or cute..I'm asking what type of personality would you think I had if you just saw me.???!!.

Step 1) Accused. Already done!
Step 2) Convicted
Step 3) Trial
Step 4) Prison

It's a shame that Maddie only has 25% justice at this stage, more than 6 months on!

I used to be Christian, but Cliche answers and unheard voices steered me away. I pray now sometimes "If you are there please just show me so I can have a LITTLE bit of hope" and I get no response. If god is real I want to know him again like I though I did before all the Confusion came in. It hurts me because it used to be a big deal to me. Now it seems to be nothing. Somehow I keep thinking about it though. If it didn't really matter I wouldn't be thinking about it right? Maybe I am in gods anger if he exists I dont know. I need some clarity, someone? And please no condemning answers...

I'm receiving the above error, and here's the two parts that are interacting with each other (a page of all switches for controlling the application):

function checked($c1, $c2)
{
switch ($c1) {
case 0:
$c2=='value="OFF"';
break;
case 1:
$c2=='value="ON"';
break;
}
}
?>





$c1==$scheduler
checked($c1, $c2);
echo "";
?>





What's wrong in the code?
