I was reading an article about Steve Irwin "the Crocodile Hunter" and there's this sentence I just don't understand:

"Irwin's American wife Terri, Bindi and their son Bob, almost 3, returned late Monday from a trekking vacation in Tasmania to Australia Zoo, the wildlife park where the family lived at Beerwah in Queensland's southeast."
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060905/ap_on_en_tv/obit_irwin

My question is, who's this Bindi person? The name isn't mentioned anywhere else in the article. Terri is Irwin's wife (or now a widow, I should say), and Bob is Irwin and Terri's almost-3-year-old son, right? Then where does this Bindi person come into the picture? Or is it even a person? I thought so but I could be wrong - after all, English is not my first language. I thought I can read English pretty well, but I just don't get this. Can anyone please explain what/who they are talking about?

A cousin of mine who never gambles or does anything even remotely like that bought a lottery ticket several weeks ago and won huge, around $100 million before taxes. He opted for a lump sum disbursement and has settled with the IRS on taxes, and he has set up a foundation to distribute most of the rest of this to various charities.

Now comes the dilemma: We live in a fairly smallish town of about 60,000 people, and my cousin doesn't want anyone here to know about his jackpot. The only person besides me that he has told is, naturally, his wife. They paid cash for an old, Victorian style house built in 1876 that's pretty big at 3,500 square feet, but for just $95,000 was pretty much a steal. Other than that, he's not planning on any luxuries, and is not one to collect "stuff." But the media in our town know that my cousin won, although since he goes by his middle name, few know him by his first name, which he used to claim the money. For his own safety, if people find out it's him...

Not only is it against the Bible for them to do so, but it's against federal law.

There are so many absolutely retarded questions here in which a simple search on google asking exactly what the question is would return the link that the person ends up going to. People this site is not a manual search engine! It's ok to ask legitimate questions, but some stuff......good lord! What percent of people here do you think actually do any research whatsoever before asking their question here?

Please I got another confusion in the church, the Lord revealed to me Luke10:30 There were many in the church who were gradually going down to Jerico. Jerico was a place of arm rubbers,wickedness and a place of evil. Jerosalem was a place and is a place of holiness, a place where God abides, a place of joy. So the Lord showed me that there were so many in the church who have taken the way to Jerico and that very soon they will be destroyed. The Lord said some of them are troubled because they are on their way to Jerico.The Lord said some who have abandoned prayers is not because they are really occupied but they have taken the wrong way and they are called to totally come back to the church.
When I shared this to the congregation, I was told by the team of elders, leaders pastors of the church that they were not happy about what I shared.It was said that I have to tell the senior pastor before sharing. I have to be there on friday to repent for what I share.What do you have to say?

When Jesus walked the earth, he was crucified by the Jews for blasphemy. He claimed boldy that he was God. This should make him an antichrist not a prophet.

I am engaged to a man - he's what alot of women would call the "Perfect One" - good looks, stable career, kind, caring, family-oriented, loving etc. Recently we had some issues, so I took a month holiday and went overseas to visit my cousin. Due to space contraint, I shared room with her housemate, who happened to be a lesbian (boyish dressing, but still girly).

Every night, we would lie down on her bed and have deep conversations.. and when it was time for me to leave, I realised I was attracted to her, and on the last night, I kissed her and we made out. The next morning before I left, I kissed her for so long and didn't wanna leave...

I'm very lost right now, I am back with my fiance, and I felt like I cheated on him. Then again, I'm still very much infatuated with her, and I text and call her everyday. I never thought I would be attracted to women, but look what i've done. I'm so screwed. Any advice?

I am sorry to have insulted the Atheists. I am sorry to have acted so unfairly; insulting them in a way I said they were insulting others. In the moment, yesterday, I had felt particularly angry at Atheists for the way MOST are. I did NOT say some Christians are any better, though. I have no idea why SOME Atheists keep insisting on that part-- I know it. But anyway, the point is, I'm extremely hurt yet I guess I can take at least half the blamefor being so. Someone said I lack maturity, though here I am taking the initiative to say sorry... which many humans have trouble doing... at an older age obviously.

Well, I hope that you can accept my sincere apologies..... thank you.

How on earth can suicide bombers become so radicalised into believing that paradise awaits them once they complete their missions ?
Once you are dead you are dead for ever.

Everyone here at least at this hour extends help and asks for help. Spends some time out of your day er night er morning to do this. Are you like this in real life? I am but I am shy and not very social however there is no venue like this in real life. I don't know the answer I am looking for, maybe just trying to make the connection that much more.

Why do you do this? Are you shy in real life situations like myself?

In the casino, they are feeding many of "spiritual partners" and their main purpose is tempting people to stay in the casino and lose all their $ eventually. This is common witchcraft practice in Thailand.
