Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I've learned that spiders get very angry if you clean their webs off and spray cleaning supplies in their general direction. I also learned that they have very crafty hiding places if you don't catch them and kill them in time. It's like they have 20 emergency escape routes at any given moment...

1)I re-learned that confession to God on specific areas of my life/thinking that I don't want or don't know how to deal with can bring the relief I am seeking.


2)I re-learned what coffee, caffeine and stimulants in general do to the brain and energy levels overall and realised that I need to make an effort to either stop or limit it to one cup a day.

I learned that when I start eating again after skipping meals with the intention of loosing weight, I didn't gain any back, but I didn't loose anymore weight, either.
I also learned that I am a better mother when I eat.
I also learned that I'm just going to be a fat chick.

*sigh*

I learned a little bit more detail about a wedding dress I've been looking at :D

I learned that my friend Paul likes to swim late in the day :thumbsup:

I learned that it's too early in the day to think about anything else.

My uncle used to tell me (the uncle married to aunt sharon, with the arm flaps) that skinny women were no good to anyone, Big women gave you more shade in the summer and kept you warmer in the winter. :satisfied:

Dung Beetles Navigate by the Moon, Study Says

Moonlight Navigation
S. zambesianus begins to forage for a fresh pile of dung around sunset. When it finds a dropping, it gathers up a bit into a ball with its front legs and head and rolls it away in a straight line.
At sunset, the beetle is able to orientate itself using the polarization pattern formed around the setting sun, but when the sun is 18 degrees beyond the horizon, known as astronomical twilight, the pattern is lost.
"But the moon will create a new polarized path in the sky," said Dacke. "It lasts for as long as the moon is in the sky, so as long as we have a moon, we have a polarized pattern around the moon."
