The condom makers at Trojan have come up with a new ad. It shows a bar full of human-sized pigs attempting to gain women’s attention. The women look bored. Only when one pig wanders into the bathroom, buys a condom, and – voila! – is transformed into a human male hunk, are the women suddenly attracted. “Evolve” is the word on screen at the ad’s end. Trojan sought to buy airtime for this commercial on CBS and Fox, both of which have accepted Trojan ads in the past, but this time – voila! – the unexpected happened. The broadcasters rejected the ad, citing their broadcast decency standards – when it comes to commercials. The New York Times reported that in a letter to Trojan, CBS wrote, “While we understand and appreciate the humor of this creative [sic], we do not find it appropriate for our network even with late-night-only restrictions.” In its written response, Fox said that it had rejected the spot since “Contraceptive advertising must stress health-related uses rather than the prevention of pregnancy.” Are congratulations in order here? Perhaps we should commend the networks for

A True Lady As the old saying goes, "If you can't find your senator or congressman on Capitol Hill, check The Palm." For 35 years, the popular restaurant on 19th Street NW has been playing host to Washington's leading power brokers. Now, for the first time since Richard M. Nixon ruled the roost, the downtown landmark is about to get a much-needed (although not everybody agrees) face-lift

False Reporting Liberals want your child to have sex. They want this to occur in spite of your religious, health, or parental objections. They are willing to substitute false thinking for solid fact on the consequences of what will happen. And they do so while simultaneously insulting you and your child's ability to comprehend, discern, and choose behaviors that make the most sense. Why Liberals Lie About Sex |

Contentment The Bible clearly teaches us to "be content" no matter what our circumstances are. In Philippians 4:11 Paul said, "I have learned in whatsoever state I am in therewith to be content". The Amplified Bible describes being content as "satisfied to the point where you are not disturbed or disquieted". It doesn't say satisfied to the point where you don't want change, but satisfied for now until God brings the change. Philippians 4:6-7 sheds more light in this area by saying, "Have no anxiety about anything, but in all things by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, continue to let God know what you want", and verse 7 "the peace that passes understanding shall keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus". Allow me to paraphrase these scriptures in my language for you. Don't be upset about anything, no matter what is happening. How To Be Content
