I just saw 'confirmed fraud' under the name of one of my friends. What does that mean exactly? Does it mean he's banned? Is he not who he say he is?
About God's silence, I have found He is often silent when I ask Him about something that is already in the Bible. And no, I don't mean sin specifically, although it IS rather futile to ask Him if it's okay to do something the Bible already said is wrong. I mean the Bible covers a whole lot of stuff - it's basically a user manual for the body and the world we are in.
About joy, that is inseparable from all the other facets of a relationship with God - peace, love, faith, when one increases they all increase. When one decreases they all decrease. Usually it is faith that increases or decreases first. As I trust God more, I have more peace. As I have more peace, there is more room for joy in my life. As I have more joy, I love God more. And as I love God more, I have more faith in Him. The circle can increase or decrease, but it never stays static.

I would say probably yes. Does it say something about being banned under his name?
If I'm wrong, Ugly, Stilly, or Once will probably correct me.
You need to come to California and show me some of these tricks. I've arranged some music for church orchestras and some praise band stuff using Finale, which is great for the print music, but not for demos.So there's this guy at work named Billy. Lately, because of lack of a car (his "baby's momma" has it now) and lack of license (don't ask) I've been taking him to work. While en route to work we have been talking about music making. He uses Audacity for recording simple tracks through a microphone (recording himself singing,) but he buys beats from someone else for TWENTY TO THIRTY DOLLARS?!
Wait... what?
He has had Cakewalk Sonar LE (which is a basic audio sequencer like many others) for some time, but never has "gotten into it." So later this week I'm going to show him how to make his own beats. There are tons of places where you can get free samples and loops - put a kick sample in a track, copy it to wherever you want the beat, "glue" it into one beat line, loop it. Repeat with snare, hi hat, clap, whatever.
Twenty to thirty dollars? The mind boggles. His style of music isn't even something I've ever done before but I thought I'd try it just to see if I could. I snagged a few samples online, threw them in my DAW and made some killer beats in... all of ten minutes. No wonder so many people make this kind of music, it's dead easy.
I'd rather be a rectangle than a parallelogram!
Wait.. is a parallelogram a rectangle??

Kind of funny little thing but I felt like it was interesting today
I was talking to a coworker over work and one of the ovens opened by themselves today. And I'm talking about one of those latch ovens that interlock with each door. lol
I really felt that it was God telling me that he is there and protecting me.
I know it sounds silly like maybe it was broken...But I don't really believe it was because, I have never seen anything like that before.
A rectangle is a parallelogram but a parallelogram isn't necessarily a rectangle.
Criteria for parallelogram: A quadrilateral with two sets of opposite parallel sides
A rectangle is a parallelogram with 4 right (90 degree angles)
If all 4 sides of a parallelogram are the same length it's a rhombus
If all 4 sides of a rectangle are the same length it is a square
This concludes cinder's geometry lesson ( I have to go find my nerd hat now).
