Survey On Security Investment Trends
whoisjoe writes "Information Security Magazine has an interesting article (although it's in PDF) on the trends and effects of security spending by organizations.
Basically, organizations tend to spend less per machine as they grow, and the effectiveness of their investment tends to depend more on the share of the IT budget than the absolute amount."
I just heard the sad news on talk radio. Troubled OS linux was found dead in its garage office. There were no further details. Truly a sad loss for OS dilletante-dabler troll hobbyists the world over.
Holy Spirit, I ask thee to search my heart on this day, and reveal to me by your power the truth Amen!
When was the last time you said the Lord's name (GD) in vain?
Have you ever stole anything in your entire life?
Do you desire something that does not belong to you {covet}?
What about Cussing, Lying, Hating, Cheating or just plain simple Lust?
If I break any part of the law, I am guilty of breaking it all!!!!!
As it is written,
For whosoever shall keep the whole law,
and yet offend in any one point, he is guilty of all.
So why do I still say, "I'm basically a good person" ?
As it is written,
there is none righteous, no, not one
For we all have sinned,
and come short of the glory of God
Why do you want to be a SLAVE to sin?
As it is written,
If the Son Jesus therefore shall make you free,
ye shall be free indeed.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God,
they are the sons of God.
The Holy Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit,
that we are the children of God:
A Slave when he failed to please his master, there were fearful consequences that had to be faced. Born out of his slavish fear, however, was one security. When the master specified in detail all of his duties and the slave fulfilled them, he could feel some security and acceptance. It was a security through accomplishment and perfectionism, but the sense of security was always overshadowed by his fears of inadequacy. The slave could perform his service with no love, admiration, or oneness of purpose with his master. That is a spirit of bondage.
A Son serves his father out of a sense of belonging, acceptance, love, and unity of purpose with the father. This son knew that his security and acceptance were dependent upon his relationship rather than his ability and diligence to achieve. His confidence was in the unconditional love of his father. His service was in gratitude for the father's love and sustenance rather than to meet demands of specifics and quotas set by the father. This young man was free from the fears of inadequacy in performance and he was free to exercise himself creatively in a loving relationship expressive of love and joy. This is the spirit of freedom that sons may enjoy.
So What is the Cost of SIN?
As it is written,
Who knowing the judgment of God,
that they which commit such things
are worthy of death,
not only do the same,
but have pleasure in them that do them
how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
The Way Out of the Darkness!
As it is written,
For by grace are ye saved through faith,
and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God:
Not by works of righteousness which we have done,
but according to his mercy he saved us,
by the washing of regeneration,
and renewing of the Holy Ghost
How Does Jesus free us?
As it is written,
For whosoever shall call
upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Neither is there salvation in any other:
for there is none other name under heaven
given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved...
Quick study on Eph 2:8,9
Grace* is the "unmerited" favor of God. That means we do not deserve it and can do nothing to ever deserve it. Grace is receiving goodness from God because God is good, not because I'm good.
Faith* is more than just believing in God, But trusting God. Knowing that Christ's payment for my sin was sufficient. Believing that he died for me, and on the third day, He rose again. Just as he promised he would.
Not of yourselves: it is the GIFT of God.* Gifts cannot be earned or they become wages. The moment you try to deserve the free gift of God, it becomes something you are trying to earn. Gifts are to be accepted with thanksgiving and gratitude.
Not of works;* If you have been trying to become worthy of Gods grace through works, STOP. Only through Faith in the blood of Jesus will you be saved. As a new creation in Christ, (born again of the spirit), God will give you the opportunity to join him in HIS work. And HE will receive all the glory and praise. "so no man can boast in himself."
Sons; *We all can be Free as sons!
Dear Friend,
If you want a personal relationship with Jesus Christ,
and you want to be sure that you are saved,
and that you will go to heaven when you die,
Pray this prayer to God, in your own words
and really BELIEVE it with all of your heart,
Dear Lord Jesus,
I admit honestly that
I am a sinner,
Please forgive me
Of all my sins
and come into my heart
and change me forever.
Thank you Jesus
for taking my sins
upon yourself and
dying on that cross
just for me.
Be forever,
My Personal
Lord and Savior.
Fill me with your
Holy Spirit
and your endless
Love.
Thank you for saving me
I Love you
Amen
Friend,
if you just prayed this prayer, I welcome you into the kingdom of God.
You need to tell someone that you are now a Child of God!.
Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Rom 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
It's trendii.
it's just kinda weird becauz "off" has THREE letters. And, you know, it just seems unfair.
...that Towelhead Habib reads this post and targets your house with a 737 next. You zealots are the reason we got attacked in the first place.

He also equals imperialism, hegemony, and racism. Liberals might want to shift the focus back to the economy, but I think Bush is partly right, let's talk about foreign policy, however let's examine its disastrous effects on our country. Like how Israeli government-funded organizations such as AIPAC own our Congress or how the dangerous disregard of the UN is shaming us in front of the world. Al Gore and all the other spineless, cowardly Democrats are doing a disservice to the U.S. when they sidestep the blatant imperialism that is guiding our country.
When it's an ugly chick, I can't control my stick !!
Mighty fine karma whoring there.
...that you enjoy the fires of hell, SINNER!
For a start, 200+ does not an authoritative respondent base make.
/. vote. Somehow I think it's profitable for /. to rent space for them to collect survey data. :)
Yeah, it's nothing compare to

Yet again Slashdot manages to gather a number of really stupid replies by people who have no clue, just think they do because they read other people's stupid posts on Slashdot....
Now that's what should happen to every stinking homofag. Last weekend one goddamn fag tried to pick ME up at the bar. Me!! "Do I look like a fag?", I asked him and got up, "Do I like a bitch who would like to get fucked in the ass!". The little shit tried to apologize but I kicked him in the nuts and when he bent over I hit him over his head with a pitcher and the sucker went down.
The owner of the place told me never to show my face again. Goddamn queer lover.
Way to go man!
That's what ya get for hanging out at klan rallies, ya fucking inbred blue-eyed retard.
Oh, do yer time and shut the fuck up.
What the fuck are ya hanging around in queer bars for, anyways? If queers are putting the moves on you, you either look like one, or are one, purty boy.
When did Slashdot turn into a gay site? Goddamn liberals taking over the place.

another post by a worldly wise 12 year old i see.
thank Jesus that turds like you will never amount to anything important or hold positions
of authority, unless, of course, you are considering a job in metropolitan law enforcement.
And how, exactly, does this connect to "News for nerds, stuff that matters" (emphasis mine)?
