OK.. being in the testing industry, I like to take these things. This one isn't as long as a previously posted test, and its basically a moral Yes & No/True or False.

Any who, I have been judged, and frankly..I think it would be difficult to stay out of hell these days. but here's my results:

The wretched King Minos has decided your fate. His tale wraps around his body 2 times.
The sweet light no longer strikes against your eyes. Your shade has been banished to... the Second Level of Hell!

Second Level of Hell Lustful

You have come to a place mute of all light, where the wind bellows as the sea does in a tempest. This is the realm where the lustful spend eternity. Here, sinners are blown around endlessly by the unforgiving winds of unquenchable desire as punishment for their transgressions. The infernal hurricane that never rests hurtles the spirits onward in its rapine, whirling them round, and smiting, it molests them. You have betrayed reason at the behest of your appetite for pleasure, and so here you are doomed to remain. Cleopatra and Helen of Troy are two that share in your fate.

The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Second Level of Hell!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
Level Score
Purgatory (Repenting Believers) Very Low
Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers) High
Level 2 (Lustful) Very High
Level 3 (Gluttonous) Very Low
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious) Low
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy) Low
Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics) High
Level 7 (Violent) Moderate
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers) High
Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous) Moderate

Take the Dante's Divine Comedy Inferno Test

Level	Score
Purgatory (Repenting Believers)	Very Low
Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers)	High
Level 2 (Lustful)	Very High
Level 3 (Gluttonous)	Very Low
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious)	Low
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy)	Low
Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics)	High
Level 7 (Violent)	Moderate
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers)	High
Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous)	Moderate

While we have your attention, Mr President...

Tuesday November 18, 2003
The Guardian

It's not often that we get the chance to speak directly to the most powerful man in the world. So as George Bush lands in Britain for his first state visit, we asked 60 Brits and Americans to make the most of it

A collection of personal letters from a very interesting list of people, including The pilot falsely accused of aiding the September 11 terrorists, Frederick Forsyth, Salam Pax The Baghdad Blogger, Benjamin Zephaniah, Anita Roddick

60 letters to George Bush (part one)

Dear President Bush,

The child who has lost his arms

thought he was catching a ball

when the bomb his enemies dropped

bounced through his dapper hall.

Look at him here in his bed

washed by the camera glare:

the world must know what happened,

and show how truly it cares.

Was it in fact his foes

who threw this thing in his house?

Or was it perhaps his friends -

hence their exceptional fuss?

Guilt is the great disguiser,

blacking the white of the sun.

One thing we know for sure:

the ball goes bouncing on.

U.S break Geneva Convention

Collective Punishment for Downing Black Hawk?

Fox News reported on Friday, Nov. 7, 2003 from Tikrit, Iraq:

"The U.S. military swept through Iraqi neighborhoods early Saturday, firing at houses suspected to be harboring hostile forces in the wake of an apparent attack on a Black Hawk helicopter that killed six U.S. soldiers."

Geneva Convention Clearly states in:

Art. 33. No protected person may be punished for an offence he or she has not personally committed. Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited.
Pillage is prohibited.
Reprisals against protected persons and their property are prohibited

Art. 53. Any destruction by the Occupying Power of real or personal property belonging individually or collectively to private persons, or to the State, or to other public authorities, or to social or cooperative organizations, is prohibited, except where such destruction is rendered absolutely necessary by military operations.

All Articles from the 4th Geneva Convention: http://www.icrc.org/ihl.nsf/7c4d08d9b287a42141256739003e636b/6756482d86146898c125641e004aa3c5?OpenDocument

How to find inner peace

I am passing this on to you because it has definitely worked for me. By following the simple advice I read in an article, I have finally found inner peace. It reads: "The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you've started.". I looked around to see all the things I started and hadn't finished. So, today I have finished one bottle of white wine, a bottle of red wine, a bottle of Baileys, my Prozac, a large box of chocolates and a quart of beer. You have no idea how good I feel. You may pass this on to those you feel are in need of Inner Peace.

The Skatalites

Location: Melkweg, Amsterdam
6th November 2003
9 PM - 11.30 AM
€18.90 + €2.50 membership

WERE NOT WORTHY!!!!!
I have never seen the Melkweg so full of people. The people were from every walk of life and they all unanimously shook they're asses. Dutch people actually danced....Everyone cheered and smiled and toked and toasted. And that was just the crowd. The Skatalites were spectacular. They lived up to my every expectation and surely must have been everything anyone else could imagine or remember. It took me back...Years.

Professionals all the way, they must have the collective age of Australia as we know it. They seemed to have recognised that a touch of youth sprinkled in offers a little more energy at vital points in the gig. I think there are 3 members of the original group remaining, on the night the group including drummer, bass player, sax, trumpets, trombone, synthesisor and vocals. It was a long and non stop gig, no supporting act etc.

Leonid meteor shower 2003

The great storms are over, but the Leonid meteor shower still isn't ready to settle down. This year, astronomers expect two modest outbursts as our planet grazes several streams of comet debris between November 13 and 23.

Think of it as an encore.

Where is best to view the Leonid Meteor Shower?
The best display will occur on November 19 as twilight comes to Europe and North America turns into view. That's when Earth intercepts the trail expected to produce the brightest meteors. A waning crescent moon will not significantly hamper observations.
The encounter favors observers located in the Atlantic, Caribbean, and the eastern half of the Americas. For skywatchers in western Europe, the display is expected to reach its height just as morning twilight begins to interfere.

Elektro tribute to Iron Maiden

Record label in Amsterdam has assembled 14 electro-fied covers of classic tracks by the British metal band. Vocoders, drum machines, and analog synths galore, plus influences as diverse as industrial, synthpop, and Miami bass. Loving tribute? Unholy abomination? Entertaining genre cross-pollination? You decide -- the entire album is available as streaming audio from this Dutch radio station.

How to Bluejack

detailed guide on how you can bluejack someone. I'm assuming you know what bluejacking is by now...

bluejackq dot com

1. Get your hands on a Bluetooth-enabled device (mobile phone, PDA, laptop). For the majority of us, we'll be using phones, so for this guide I will assume that you will be too.

2. Create a new phone book contact, with the message you want to send to someone in the 'Name' field. e.g. 'I like the look of your cappuccino'

3. Go to a busy place (see Tips & Tricks for examples of good bluejacking spots)

4. Select the contact you made earlier, and choose 'Send via Bluetooth'

5. Your phone will search for other Bluetooth devices roughly 10 metres around you. It will either list available devices, or say none could be found. If it doesn't find any, choose another spot.

6. Your phone will list the names of devices in range. Sometimes the names will give you a clue to the model of phone.

7. Select one of these devices listed for your phone book contact to be sent to.

8. If all goes well, your contact will be sent to the selected device

9. If you can, try to casually look around you and see if you spot anybody with a bluetooth enabled phone/device nearby looking truly puzzled. It would help greatly if you know which phones have Bluetooth and which don't. This way, you can eliminate anybody who is looking at, say, their Nokia 3310 which doesn't have Bluetooth.

10. The rest, as they say, is up to you

Gay Christians?!?

An almost perfect reply to the furor over the installation of an openly gay bishop in the Episcopal church...

From a recent letter to the editor in Tennessee:

The actions taken by the New Hampshire Episcopalians are an affront to Christians everywhere. I am just thankful that the church's founder, Henry VIII, and his wife Catherine of Aragon, and his wife Anne Boleyn, and his wife Jane Seymour, and his wife Anne of Cleves, and his wife Katherine Howard, and his wife Catherine Parr are no longer here to suffer through this assault on traditional Christian marriage.

Silver money gaining popularity

If you want to put the government back under the control of the People, then the first step has to be getting the money out of the control of the government, and since they are now able to use real, Silver-backed Liberty Dollars-- instead of Federal Reserve Debt Notes, they're already on the road to re-securing their freedoms!

Weed slows cancer

In 1974 researchers at the Medical College of Virginia, who had been funded by the National Institute of Health to find evidence that marijuana damages the immune system, found instead that THC slowed the growth of three kinds of cancer in mice – lung and breast cancer, and a virus-induced leukemia.

The DEA quickly shut down the Virginia study and all further cannabis/tumor research, according to Jack Herer, who reports on the events in his book, "The Emperor Wears No Clothes." In 1976 President Gerald Ford put an end to all public cannabis research and granted exclusive research rights to major pharmaceutical companies, who set out – unsuccessfully – to develop synthetic forms of THC that would deliver all the medical benefits without the "high."

Marijuana 'Canada's most valuable agricultural product'

Marijuana is also a growth industry in terms of jobs, with people earning $15 an hour for trimming the dried flowers and consultants earning $40 an hour to help inexperienced growers get started.

Canada, which has legalised cannabis for medical use, has authorised a company to grow marijuana for this purpose.

beer fueled phonecalls

Thanks to cheaper Internet phone dialing, Labatt Brewery was able to offer a free long-distance phone service to thousands of residents of Ontario, Canada.

There was just one catch: every time any of the 1,000 new subscribers a day dialed out, they had to listen to a 10-second Labatt commercial. "It's not as cheesy as 'This call brought to you by Labatt,'" a company spokesman said.

But Labatt BlueLine, launched last summer, used voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology to dramatically lower costs by sending calls out on the Internet rather than a telephone company's privately owned network.

Video games are addictive

UTRECHT, Netherlands (Reuters) - Computer game fanatics should not be labelled addicts, although many players say they are hooked on a hobby that is affecting their social lives, scientists said on Tuesday.

Other scientists, who like Chee have carried out scientific surveys, said heavy games players were in fact sociable and not the pathological loners they are often made out to be.

spam free email address

If you own a website, you should really protect your email address. Spiders, crawlers, whatever you wanna call them, dig around your website for code matching the tag "mailto:youraddress@yoursite.com".

One way to combat this is to change the format of the code from ASCII text to Unicode Value
i.e maito:me@me.com becomes:
mailto:me@me.com

crazy huh, but it works a treat!
