Okay, so last night everything worked fine. I loaded up cpanel, fixed issues with the site after the database move, etc.Today I'm unable to load up the site. It just keeps giving me ping timeouts. With what I'm being told by others it is only me having this issue with my site, and yet there have been 0 changes to my pc between it working and not. I have tried multiple times during the day with no luck.Along with this, if I load my website using a proxy service then I do not have any issues. The only time it will not allow me to access it is if I am "using" my own IP.Any insight or help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I had everything up last night and now my site is down again as well...

Not sure what the issue is. I cannot even load up any of the cpanel's to allow me to put in a password.I have tried the link that is located in the Credit System 2.0I have tried the links with subdomain/cpanelI have tried the links with subdomain:2082All 3 of these just give page load errors.Please note : This isn't a "my password doesn't work" thread. This is a "I can't even get cpanel to TRY to load" thread.Thanks in advance.

http://www.funnyjunk.com/ is by far the most annoying site that I have ever seen. Check it out, Some of them that you guys found issues with I didn't....But I use FireFox and stuff - popups don't come up for me, and even the "blinking links" in the first post never showed up for me...Visited the site and never saw anything wrong. I think that some people just try to bring more attention to their site and don't notice that although it DOES make people notice them, it causes people to leave as well.

I strongly believe that cell phones shouldn't be given based on age, but rather maturity. I have seen some people who are 16-22 for example that spam SMS and calls to people, racking up their phone bills for their parents. On the other hand, there are some younger kids who are responsible and do not use them unless it's for emergencies.I was personally given both a debit card and a cell phone at age 11-12, but I also knew how to keep complete control over both of them. I never used the credit card as it was for emergencies, and only used the cell phone for calling family if I needed something. Aside from that, nobody ever knew my phone number or anything.I feel that these are really both a necessity for kids because they can run into situations where they will be needed. At the same time, it should be based upon how much you feel that you can trust your children not to make the wrong decisions with these. To be honest it's kind of a risky situation overall, especially with peer pressure.If nothing else you could always just use a pre-paid cell phone. This will allow them to use X minutes(which you can obviously monitor - you're buying the cards after all, right?) and this will ensure that they are not using their minutes for wasteful reasons.

I don't quite understand how that is considered as a "scam"....They never asked for any items or for anything at all really....Or does something else come from replying to them?I have had a LOT of emails on craigslist offering $10k for like a $100 item and saying "... ... Take your $100 and $200 for helping me and then send the other $9700 to my partner at ..."Quite entertaining too. I just find it sad that they find people who actually do it.. I mean they would be losing money by sending out all of these checks if people weren't actually doing it. Just kind of shows how gullible some people really are.

Interesting things on this list...Some of them sound good but others are just...Too much work I guess. I mean, I'm not saying that they won't work or anything but at the same time, they would cause inconveniences.One of them that I don't think really helps relieve stress is the "eating healthy" part....How does food affect your feelings and personality? I'm not quite understanding that one.

The only one I know of that you spoke of was Akon, and I just wanted to say that I like his songs as well. There really haven't been any by him that I didn't like, mostly due to the beats I think. He seems to keep on the same genre rather than making random skips to other ones(Eminem for example)

I was wondering what happened as well...My site hosted by Trap is the median spot for me to meet with all of my gaming clan members, so it being down kind of hurts us overall....I also got kicked from 3 credits to -4 during that time as well, in which put us to the "You are no longer hosted" message. Not quite sure why it was using credits if we were unable to 1)see the site and 2)Login to the forums, however. Hopefully it all gets figured out.

I would upgrade just because even if it's not better in terms of the things you can visually see, it may have updates to security, crashing issues, etc.Usually the only things that I do NOT upgrade immediately are those released by Microsoft.

Reading this amazes me...I honestly did not know there were this many different types of martial arts. The only ones I knew of before were like Tai Quan Do or however it's spelled, along with normal "Karate"......Oh, Jujitsu I think is the other...I was in Karate for a little while when I was younger but didn't really find it interesting enough. Maybe another type would be more attention grabbing for me?

I think this would be at the 20% amount, being that it is technically a cash advance, but I'm not completely sure....Just take into consideration that credit card companies are out to make money so they will charge the most they are able to by law, .

Ah, good tutorial...Luckily I haven't been sent any virii or anything...I use Trillian, :DRegardless, great job on this and it seems very helpful and informative. I've always hated when I need help with a certain virus and can't find anything online or spend hours upon hours searching.

Sounds like you've had some pretty bad luck...I haven't really bought scooters as I just didn't find them that entertaining but the ones I've messed with before didn't have any issues. The companies should be willing to assist you in solving your issue and if they won't just escalate the issue higher in their company. At some point they will get tired of hearing from you and will help you resolve the issue.

I am confused by the whole cpu thing. With what I've been reading lately Phenom has issues with a lot of games, and I always thought AMD was the best cpu for gaming but people told me to go with Intel because even though they may be the same speed the Intel will 'clock faster.' Not completely sure how much of that is true.

Well when it comes to issues with big companies like this I think it's hard to tell if it's really a "scam" or just a legitimate error. I mean with as many subscribers as these companies have it's somewhat hard to ensure that everything is working 100% in terms of billing and everything. Along with this people try to screw them over 24/7 using different scams, so they have to sift through what is legitimate or not.

The way that I see it....Believing in God can't hurt you. I mean it's not like he says to go out of your way or anything, he just says to believe in him and enjoy everlasting life. So what is so hard about that?I do understand some religions have other things latched on to them and everything but for the most part it's not a very hard thing to do.

lol, I found this a very interesting post. There are so many things unproven but then again people have flown all the way around the world. You can do it using airlines in fact, which would prove the theory false,

Really it's just like everything else...It's something that people read and say "OH WOW, I GET IT!" without even paying attention to what it really means.It's like the places where you get $10 free if they forget to give you your receipt. There are even usually some stipulations on that. I guess it's the whole "I know everything" thing that people go through, where they assume that anything that is said is 100% correct, when in all actuality that is not always the case.

I am against cloning completely. Some of it is because of religious purposes and others are because it just doesn't seem right to "make" people. I understand we do "recreate" foods and stuff, but that is completely different... To better illustrate my point is some information pulled from a website. http://www.christiananswers.net/q-aig/cloning.html It helps to better distinguish first of all what cloning is, and then relate it to a biblical sense. A book titled, In the Beginning, There Was Dolly, says: 'The lamb has always been a symbol of innocence. This changed abruptly in the spring of 1997. "Dolly," a barely three-month-old sheep, hit the headlines, displacing politicians and pop stars from the front pages of newspapers and magazines. Overnight, the fluffy white lamb of innocence had become a symbol of threat to human society through an eerie new technologycloning.'1 Why all the fuss? Because 'Dolly' was a genetically identical copy of an adult sheepa clone. She was the first such clone of a mammal (see section on Dolly). But how do we judge cloning according to the Bible? In answering, we will first give some biological background. The cells of a living beingwhether in the skin, lungs, nose or elsewherehave a complete set of genetic 'instructions', known as the genome. From the very first division of the fertilized egg, the nucleus of each cell formed by successive cell divisions stores the complete genetic information. At a very early stage of embryonic development, the cells specialize (or differentiate) so that some become nerve cells, some skin cells etc. Each performs different functions, based on different parts of the genetic code. That part of the genome which is not needed for the specialized function of a gland cell, for example, is not lost but is switched off or 'asleep'. In 1996, Ian Wilmut succeeded in awakening the hidden information of the nucleus of such a cell from its slumber (see section on Dolly). Dolly is a copy, a clone of the sheep whose udder cell was used. A clone (from Greek klon) is an individualplant, animal or human beingderived by asexual reproduction from another organism that has the identical hereditary components. Individuals could derive from the same cell (identical twins), or the clone could originate from the cell of another individual. But, in spite of the fact that clones have the same genotype, they are never absolutely identical. The way an individual develops depends to a high degree on the surroundings, too (see section on Lenin). Cloning is not a human invention. The Creator Himself planned this way of reproduction. When we plant potato tubers of the previous year, the potatoes we later harvest are just as nutritious and tasty. This is because there was no new combination of hereditary information, with one plant being pollinated with the DNA of another. They are in fact clones of the previous year's plant. Strawberries are also propagated from runners which are actually clones of the parent plant, bearing fruit with the same color and taste. We also see cloning in the animal kingdom. Aphids can reproduce both sexually and by cloning. In spring the first aphid generation hatches out of fertilized eggs. Later, the aphid lays eggs that start to divide without being fertilized. They are clones of the mother. Many other animals reproduce by cloning: certain bees, ants, crustaceans, and lizards. Concerning people, we know that identical twins are real clones. The fertilized egg splits in two, and each of these two 'daughter' cells develops separately. They are individual people with an absolutely identical set of genes. Because of this they have the same innate gifts and talents, as well as the same predisposition to particular illnesses. They have the same color hair and eyes, the same shoe size and the same features. But, in spite of this, they are two different people: each of them experiences the world in a unique way, and each is uniquely molded by his or her individual experiences and choices. Both have their own personality, and their own soul. So is humanity allowed to use the cloning technique? Humans are appointed rulers over 'the fish of the sea and over the fowl [birds] of the air and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth' (Genesis 1:28). So I see no reason why it should not be used in plants and animals. Especially where there is a benefit to mankind, such as less hunger or disease. Christ's example indicates that things (such as healing, binding wounds, peace-making, and feeding the hungry) which oppose the effects of the Curse are 'blessed'. When humans breed wheat that can be cultivated in cold areas, or use artificial selection to get cows yielding more milk, we are also 'manipulating nature'. But of course, few would (or should) oppose such intervention. I think that God's instruction to humans to subdue the earth (Genesis 1:28) also allows for cloning. The world-wide fear of cloning derives from a vague and confused anxiety about a technology that seems out of control. Gunther Stockinger wrote in the German news magazine Der Spiegel, chronicling the year 1997: Biologists and doctors anywhere in the world could hit upon the idea of generating genetically identical copies of geniuses, top-class athletes, artists or movie stars. The person off the shelf, or "*person* xerox", would no longer be mere fiction. Even Hitlers and Stalins could be produced in the labs of bio-modellers if only one usable cell of theirs could be found. A major reason for this fear is that in today's 'evolutionized' world, there is no dividing line between the animal kingdom and humans, so the same ethical standards apply to dealings with both. The Bible, however, draws a clear line between animals and humans, and gives us ethical guidelines: Humans were created separately, in God's image, unlike the animal kingdom (Genesis 1:27). Our existence extends beyond physical death (Luke16:19-31, Philippians 1:23). This is nowhere indicated for animals. God allowed humans to kill animals (Genesis 9:2-3). Concerning other humans, He gave the commandment: 'Thou shalt not kill [the Hebrew ratsach means 'murder']'(Exodus 20:13). God entrusted humans with dominion over the animal kingdom (Genesis 1:26). But humans were never told to have dominion over other humans, nor manipulate them, as would be the case if cloning humans. Furthermore, humans are meant to have fathers and mothers, to be where possible the offspring of a sacred marriage relationship, the family ordained by God. While unfortunate circumstances in a fallen world mean that sometimes children have to be raised by only one parent, a clone could never have two parents. Thus the artificial cloning of a complete human being, because it deliberately sets out to cause such a situation, is opposed to biblical principles. There are further reasons for rejecting the artificial cloning of humans. Each fertilized egg, including those from cloning, is a new human individual. Yet perfecting the cloning technique requires many experiments. Many individuals would be enabled to commence life, only to be deliberately destroyed. The research director of a biotechnology firm recently said, My own view is that the research [on human cloning] is immoral at the present time and should always be immoral. To make the technique more efficient would require a great deal of experimentation. And to get this more refined would be at the expense of having deformed babies, etc. To get it into a situation where you could clone humans efficiently would have such a history of misery associated with it.2 Thus, while it may be right under certain circumstances to clone animals to benefit people, I think it is absolutely wrong to try to clone humans. HOW WAS DOLLY BORN? Wilmut's experiment involved three adult female sheep. He first took an udder cell from sheep A, a six-year-old of the Finn-Dorset breed. He then fused the genetic information in its nucleus with an egg cell from sheep B, from which the nucleus had been removed. Tiny electric shocks were used to stimulate this new 'combination' egg cell to divide. Finally, the resultant embryo was implanted into the womb of sheep C, where it developed just like any other sheep embryo. 150 days, Dolly became the first sheep to be born without a father. Mice have now also been cloned from an adult. This was using a cumulus cell, a type which surrounds the ovary, and a slightly different technique. These clones have also been clonedand these againthree generations of healthy clones. Cattle have since been cloned as well. Dolly was the first genetically identical copy of an adult. As a fertilized egg cell progressively splits, its millions of offspring cells specialize into muscle cells, skin cells or secretory cells, for example. It was thought that a specialized cell could never revert to become a non-differentiated cell, with all the genetic instructions to form the entire creature 'unmasked'. However, we now know that even adult mammals can be cloned. Return to text. WOULD A CLONE OF LENIN BE ANOTHER LENIN? While unlikely, the mummified body of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin just might still provide a complete genetic blueprint of his DNA. What if someone with sufficient technology were to use this to make a clone of the 'father of the Russian Revolution'? Many people are unaware that Lenin was one of the most bloodthirsty tyrants of this whole evolutionized century. As a recent Time article3 said, his total ruthlessness was the model for Stalin, Mao, Hitler and Pol Pot. It cites one of the key Soviet dissidents of the era as stating that from Lenin's 'neat pen flowed seas of blood'. 4 The same writer gives us a clue as to how this scholarly intellectual could be responsible for the ruthless extermination of tens of millions: '[Lenin] was a rather kind person whose cruelty was stipulated by science ...'. Further insight comes from a speech by a self-professed admirer of Lenin, the late Australian historian, Manning Clark, while in Moscow to receive the Lenin Jubilee Medal.5 Lenin, said Clark, belonged to the 'post-Darwinian world [he] tried to tell people about life without Godthere was no God.' Consistent with Lenin's being persuaded by 'science' that evolution was fact, he 'completely rejected the Judaeo-Christian view of the world and its conception of man's place in the universe. He not only rejected the religious version of the creation of the universe and man, but, more importantly, of man's creation in the image of God and man's fall, or to use the words of Lenin's opponents, human sin.'6 So Lenin was only being logicalif Genesis is myth, we must discard all notions of absolute standards of right and wrong. So why not kill as many people as necessary to help bring about the imagined future socialist utopia? A clone of Lenin would not necessarily give rise to a similarly murderous individual. The interaction of his (identical) genetic blueprint with the countless differences in his environment and opportunity means that Lenin's (hypothetical) offspring would likely be very different from his 'parent'. As a human being, he would have a unique soul. He could make his own choices in all manner of areas, including rejecting the evolutionism which turned Lenin into a mass killing machine. He might even become a born-again believer in the risen Lord Jesus. So, while not justifying human cloning, (see main text) common fears about 'armies' of identical, ruthless dictators lack a factual basis.

Usually when this happens it is because of your cookies. Something you may want to do is to go into your cookie folder...I forget where this is located(It's been quite a while) and see if you find anything from Xisto...I'm assuming that will probably be in the name.If you don't, maybe your browser just isn't accepting them. If you do, try deleting it and re-logging in.I've yet to have an issue here but I did have issues on my forums at one point(and it turned out it was because of the cookies)Hope this solves your issue!

Heh, that is probably one of the weirdest things I have ever heard of mixing. Other than that people like my grandfather mix....I think it's Jelly and Ham...And someone in my family - I forgot who - mixes peanut butter with their bologna and cheese. I guess it's just the way people are raised. I mean if you're used to that at a young age you'll be okay with it. Like my hate for sea-food...I'm assuming(never asked though) that I never had sea-food while I was younger, so that's probably why I hate it so bad. Of course, on the other side, humans are very unique things...Can't really tell what causes us to do what, so I have no idea.

I really liked the part about slavery you posted. That was a thing most people do not know about, whether it is because they flat out do not want to recognize it, or because they just do not know any better. My view on science is that the original poster was correct. Science is starting to tell, based on THEORIES, where things come from. It's explaining how to mutate people, mutate diseases, etc. And then it uses that proof to say there is no God. Although science may prove that things can be CHANGED, it does not even BEGIN to explain HOW we got here in the first place. I strongly feel that as a mutational scientist(whether it's breeding certain animals for added effects - mutating foods to make them grow better - etc.) you really can not be very religious. They are pretty much the direct opposite in my eyes. Whereas religion is here to say that "God is the supreme being and we need not to ask questions, as he will answer them for us once we go before him at his throne" science is saying the opposite, which is "God can not possibly exist because where is the proof? We can prove that people grow by doing this, so obviously we can prove that God does not exist" It actually scares me a lot to see how far science is progressing, as it is completely destroying the belief system that a lot of people have. I, for one, will always write off what scientists say, and still believe in the supreme being(God.) What bothers me are people like my little brother who come in to school(He's in 5th grade) and tell me that he learned we were made by monkeys mutating. I spent hours talking to him about it and he flat out won't even believe me now because "That's what my teacher said." If *anything* people need to quit corrupting the young, and allow older people to make the decisions of what they want to believe. But choosing to talk to younger people about these things is by far the worst type of corruption I feel is possible. I want to apologize if I did stray off topic a little or whatever, I kind of went off on a tangent because this is something that really does bother me, deep down inside. I don't understand how so many people think it's right(Not saying anything about you all - just in general) and it pains me to see it happening.

I think that for the most part all Need for Speed games were pretty much the same thing, but with different cars, graphics, etc.Probably the best ones I played were like Most Wanted, where the whole feel of the game changed as you were chased down by police and all.Other than that...I really didn't see the point of playing any of the other ones.

Keep in mind that although it could be an issue with your sound drivers themselves, your PC may also have what is called "UAA" drivers - which are for high definition audio...You may want to attempt getting those too - they're easily available via msn I think, as it is a microsoft made driver.That may fix your issue.So far my issues from sound have been because of...1)Drivers corrupted - had to reinstall2)UAA drivers got screwed - had to reinstall3)Somehow my motherboard got shocked and blew the sound port but nothing else(this was by far the weirdest issue I have ever had before)Other than that I really don't know enough to help but hopefully your issue was as easy as mine were.
