What ever happen to that preacher, Robert Tilton out of Dallas TX?

In March 2005, Tilton started a new church in Hallandale, Florida, not far from his home in Miami Beach. The church had already existed for some time under the pastorship of controversial former televangelist David Epley.

In March 2005, Tilton started a new church in Hallandale, Florida, not far from his home in Miami Beach. The church had already existed for some time under the pastorship of controversial former televangelist David Epley.

The church, originally renamed “Christ The Good Shepherd Worldwide Church” by Tilton, has approximately 200 members as of 2007. On Sunday May 13, 2007, the church moved into a new location at 16601 NW 8th Avenue in Miami, and was officially renamed “Word of Faith Church”, much like his original church in Dallas. The new, larger location was purchased from another church. Tilton also started a church in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2005, also originally named Christ The Good Shepherd Worldwide Church. It has also been officially renamed “Word of Faith Church.” The Las Vegas church’s resident pastor is Natalie Vafai and holds its services at the Henderson Convention Center.

Tilton has also begun traveling the country again, in what he calls “The Renewed Robert Tilton Success-N-Life Miracle Rallies.” According to his assistant pastor in Florida, he plans to broadcast his church services and miracle rallies on TV soon and has approached the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) about this.

is global warming flatlining ( cold around the world ) ?

I would like to explain global warming to all of you, as explained by liberal astronomers. Now pay attention, because I am going to educate all of you.

I would like to explain global warming to all of you, as explained by liberal astronomers. Now pay attention, because I am going to educate all of you.

Global warming is caused by the rotation of the earth, not our pollution.

There are not two, but three rotations of our earth. The first is the earth spinning on it’s axis, once a day. This creates day and night. The second is the earth rotating around the sun, once a year. This creates the seasons.

The third, which many people are not aware of, is that the earth wobbles, much like a toy top. ONE wobble takes 1,000 YEARS.

So, as the sun is rotating around the sun and wobbling at the same time, every thousand years or so, it starts to change the climate of the earth because of the way the earth is tilted towards the sun.

I cannot go into detail about this because I am not an astonomer or a scientist. All I know is that the earth is an ever-changing, living thing that has gone through and will go through drastic and devastating climate changes. We did have an ice-age at one point, so if you take that into consideration, we’ve been having global warming ever since. I didn’t hear the cave-men complaining, so neither should any of you commies.

If any global warming at all is caused by our pollution, it is so fractional that it’s not worth spending the millions we are spending on it, when there are people starving to death all over the place. There is nothing we can do about it, so just get over it.

What is the cheapest way to make phone calls from Brazil to the U.S.?

Check with the company with whom you have the landline. For example, if its telefonica they have a special plan called super destinos where you can select five countries and pay a special low rate for international calls to these countries. But first you have to register the five countries with them - a simple […]

Check with the company with whom you have the landline. For example, if its telefonica they have a special plan called super destinos where you can select five countries and pay a special low rate for international calls to these countries. But first you have to register the five countries with them - a simple process which can be done over the phone. With this type of discount calls to the US should cost around 35 centavos a min. Intellig also has a similar offer called pais amigo. Again, you select the countries and then have special discount rates. As for Embratel you could get their tarifa unica DDI plan - here again it costs nothing to register and no monthly payments. With Embratel you would pay about 35 centavos a min to the US, and one real to any country in the world, anyday, anytime. All the different schemes dont have any monthly payments. Its free to register as well. Only, no matter what you use, make sure you check your monthly bills and correct any error billings. Known to happen. Be careful of using your cell to call the US and recheck the rates before calling. Using Embratel and my cell I called from Foz de Igazu to SP on my prepaid vivo cell phone. I made five calls, each one for about five minutes, and ended up paying sixty reais for the whole.

anyone watching the penguin game?!?

Well, I wasn’t around here because I was out watching the game. It’s certainly good for the Pens to get a win going into a 5-day break in between games. It’s especially good that they got a W for Fleury. A friend and I decided together that we’re not going to get too optimistic about Staalsy […]

A friend and I decided together that we’re not going to get too optimistic about Staalsy right now. It could have been a fluke. Lol. Did you notice that he fell after scoring his last goal?? I don’t knooow, sounds like bad magic to me.

I’m not going to mourn the end of Malkin’s streak, because I’m not only satisfied with the win, but with the efforts of all 4 lines as a whole. It’s actually good to see that the Pens might not rely on the offensive contributions of only two players (Malkin & Crosby) now. Besides, I thought Malkin played pretty good.

Psssht, how is Gonchar not on the All-Star ballot? He’s one of the leading defenseman in points in the league. (He might be in the lead right now, actually. I’m not sure.) He’s been great so far this season.

i have sore nipples?

My breasts have always gotten sore around the time and during my period and midway through when I ovulate. The itching though…..could be from sweating or dry skin. I get itchy during the summer months when my skin is dry and my breasts are cooped up in a hot bra all day.
I would start trying to go braless when at home some of the time and try to dry off occasionally if you feel moist. If you think the sweating might be a problem you can change bras during the day and it might help.If you think your skin may be dry you could try using lotion at night, not before putting a bra on because it would promote sweat. Powder will absorb moisture and maybe using a medicated powder would benefit even more. You could use lotion at night and then shower and use powder before getting dressed.
If there is any irritation, red bumps etc it could be contact dermititis, if you’ve changed bathsoap or laundry soap recently. If this is the case, you can use benedryl cream, gel or lotion and see if that helps.
As for health problems I would make sure you are having no nipple discharge. If you are you need to see your doctor right away.

Welcome back to Canada! I just spent the past 8 years of my life living in Vancouver and a couple years there when I was quite small. Sadly, I just got transferred to Edmonton, Alta. for work back in June but I get to transfer back next June. I think you’ll find that you really love Vancouver, there are so many friendly people and nice places to live. I was living in Kitsilano which is just west of the city. It was a nice area in my opinion but it really depends on what you’re looking for. Other areas you might consider are Coquitlam, Burnaby, White Rock, or Richmond. There’s tons to do in the city - you can go hang out in Stanley Park, go to the beach when it’s warm enough in the summer, Vancouver’s a big Canadian base of scuba, you can take a ferry and go to Vancouver Island for a day, there are TONS of hockey games with our NHL team Vancouver Canucks and our WHL team Vancouver Giants, there are football games during the football season, the best radio station in town (99.3 COFX) brings huge bands to the city it seems like every week and it’s always fun to go to concerts put on by them. I hope I’ve been at least a little bit of help to you. Have a great time in Vancouver, you’ll love it there.

To the guy above me - bchristo@tds.net - everywhere has its drug problems, yes BC has quite a bit of pot, yes Surrey does have a high crime rate - especially car thefts (although down very much from last year and even 3 years ago), and yes Vancouver is very culturally diverse but that’s what makes it so special. With so many different kinds of people places like the Croatian Cultural Centre (which is also one of the biggest all-ages concert venues) pop up and become places of high activity. You get to meet people from all over the world and racism isn’t a huge factor there because there are so many kinds of people and everyone is different. I think the diversity is one of Vancouver’s best qualities.

Organic Chemistry?

1. The alkyl group is a substituent group that is bonded to the “main molecule.” Therefore, one of the hydrogens of the corresponding alkane will actually be replaced by the “main molecule,” in order for the octet rule to still apply. Hope that makes sense. 2. I don’t know what you’re asking… functional groups change […]

2. I don’t know what you’re asking… functional groups change in many chemical reactions.

3. 1,2-ethanediol has two -OH groups (this is what makes it a diol). Since this gives the diol extra oxygens and hydrogens, it allows the molecule to form hydrogen bonds with each other and, if it is in aqueous solution, with water molecules. This will raise the melting point since these bonds and interactions must be broken in order for these molecules to go into the gaseous phase.

4. An isomer is a molecule with the same molecular formula but with different connections of atoms/structure. 1-pentanol and 2-methyl-2-butanol are constitutional isomers (same molecular formula, different connection of atoms). Think about it, they have the same number of carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens but differ only in their structure.

Do you think depression can ruin a relationsip?

no woman is going to be happy with a relationship where u get nothing but a bit of fun and sex, women want a commitment, and u did nothing wrong asking or giving an ultamitium. this is not about u, u asked for love and commitment and he just doesn’t feel the same about u […]

no woman is going to be happy with a relationship where u get nothing but a bit of fun and sex, women want a commitment, and u did nothing wrong asking or giving an ultamitium. this is not about u, u asked for love and commitment and he just doesn’t feel the same about u as u do him. no theres no way to begin again unless u want to settle for nothing, u did not ruin anything at all he did. have a little self respect here, u got to love yourself, and expect more out of life than a morsel or two of nothing. yes if u stayed with him it would be like that forever, until he left u for whoever, 3 years is a long time to be in a relationship and not even live together. u cannot make sense out of an illogical situation, i am afraid u got one of those non commital men who won’t commit for one reason or the other, just be glad he is gone even though i know u love him. u need a life and need to be able to feel safe and content, and theres no way this man could make u feel this way. don’t keep a zero for a man or blame yourself for this, the fault is within him, and in his head, personally i think he treated u very disrespectfully and u would know that if u felt good about yourself and respected u. he hasn’t got any redeeming charastics that would make u want to stay with him, he is a user, u are good enough to sleep with, go places with, but when u wanted more he wasn’t willing to do what most of the time comes naturally with couples. he has no intention of offering u a thing, and u have to see reality here and accept what he says and go on with life, if u don’t it will hurt u enotionally.

Grey’s Anatomy - I need the lines from tonight?

D: You know what I talked about with the other Grey? All the things this Grey won’t let me say.

M: You can say anything to me

D: I want to marry you. I want to have kids with you. I want to build us a house. I want to settle down and grow old with you. I want to die when I’m 110 years old in your arms. I don’t want 48 uninterrupted hours. I want a lifetime. See what happens? I say things like that, and you fight the urge to run in the opposite direction? It’s okay. I understand. I didn’t, but now I do, I do. You’re just getting started, and I’ve been doing this for a long time. Deep down, you’re still an intern, and you’re not ready.

M: I’m not ready right now, but things could stay the way they are, and I can get ready…I’ll get ready.

D: Things can’t stay the way they are. We can still meet in the elevator, the on-call room and maybe you’ll be ready. And I’ll wait. I’ll wait until you’re ready.

M: Okay then.

D: Yeah, but what if, what if while I’m waiting, I meet someone who is ready to give me what I want from you?

M: What if you do?

D: I don’t know.

p.s. Karev (?) just gives Izzy some tissues and tells her (gently) to “keep it down.”

Are you inspired by mother nature and the beauty of her?

All my life, I’ve lived in awe of nature. When I was a child, one of my chores was to bring the cows in at milking time. I’d walk out into the pasture, and head them toward the barn. Once they were on the trail in, I was free to let my mind wander. I stopped to examine the grasses, sage, and flowers on the prarie. I discovered textures and variations of colors on what were essentially weeds. From a distance, especially from a moving car, the terrain looked nearly monotone and ordinary, but in every ant hill and thistle up close, I found variety and energy. I’ve lived in the foothills, the mountains, a tupelo swamp, a pine forest, a mixed hardwood forest, and at the edge of a dessert. I’ve found beauty in all of it.

What’s more, though, is that I’ve learned that peole are similar to some of those landscapes. If we spend our lives thinking that we are flying above those around us or driving by on life’s interstates at 70 miles an hour, we might miss a lot of what is beautiful in human nature, too.

Yes, nature has been an inspiration to me.
