  As you may have noticed, the C Zine wasn't
 sent yesterday like it usually is! I have had
a nasty cold over this week, add stress to that
and you've got a huge double whammy! As the post
 office says, nether sleet nor snow nor rain
will stop the mail!(except, maybe, saturdays!)
The same goes for the C Zine!(except for the 
saturday part!)

 Any whos, I have been working on a brand new
site design! You can check out the preveiw at
https://ajcorp.tripod.com/cir/news.html
One of the cool(it doesn't take much to impress
me :) ) things about it is that I will totally
 overhaul the navigation menu so that navigation
will be much easier!
I have also been working on a brand new site
 that will feature ______!(you don't to find out
 about it until I release it!)

                               Enjoy the zine!

                       ::Inspirational Story::
                                 ::The Water::

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. 
We had not seen rain 
in almost a month. The crops 
were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. 
The creeks 
and streams were long gone back into the earth. It 
was a dry 
season that would bankrupt several 
farmers before it was through. Every 
day, my 
husband and his brothers would go about the 
arduous process of 
trying to get water to the 
fields. Lately this process had involved taking 
a 
truck to the local water rendering plant and filling 
it up with water. 
But severe rationing had cut everyone 
off. If we didn't see some rain soon...we 
would lose everything. 
It was on this day that I learned the true lesson 
of sharing and 
witnessed the only miracle I have seen with my own eyes. 

I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his 
brothers when 
I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking 
toward the woods. He wasn't walking 
with the usual carefree 
abandon of a youth but with a serious purpose. 
I could only 
see his back. He was obviously walking with a great 
effort...trying 
to be as still as possible. Minutes 
after he disappeared into the woods, 
he came running 
out again, toward the house. I went back to making 
sandwiches; 
thinking that whatever task he had been 
doing was completed. Moments later, 
however, he was 
once again walking in that slow purposeful stride 
toward 
the woods.

This activity went on for an hour: walk carefully 
to the woods, run back 
to the house. Finally I 
couldn't take it any longer and I crept out of 

the house and followed him on his journey (being 
very careful not to be 
seen...as he was obviously 
doing important work and didn't need his mommy 
checking up 
on him). He was cupping both hands in front of him as he 
walked; 
being very careful not to spill the water he held 
in them...maybe two or 
three tablespoons were held in 
his tiny hands. I sneaked close as he went 
into the 
woods. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but 
he did 
not try to avoid them. He had a much higher 
purpose. As I leaned in to 
spy on him, I saw the most 
amazing site. Several large deer loomed in front 
of 
him. Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed 
for him to get 
away. A huge buck with elaborate antlers 
was dangerously close. But the 
buck did not threaten 
him...he didn't even move as Billy knelt down. And 
I 
saw a tiny fawn laying on the ground, obviously suffering 
from dehydration 
and heat exhaustion, lift its head with 
great effort to lap up the water 
cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.

When the water was gone, Billy jumped up to run back to 
the house and I 
hid behind a tree. I followed him back 
to the house; to a spigot that we 
had shut off the 
water to. Billy opened it all the way up and a small 

trickle began to creep out. He knelt there, letting the 
drip, drip slowly 
fill up his makeshift "cup" as the sun beat 
down on his little back. And 
it came clear to me. The 
trouble he had gotten into for playing with the 
hose 
the week before. The lecture he had received about the 
importance 
of not wasting water. The reason he didn't 
ask me to help him. It took 
almost twenty minutes for 
the drops to fill his hands. When he stood up 
and began 
the trek back, I was there in front of him. His little 
eyes 
just filled with tears. "I'm not wasting," was all he 
said. As he began 
his walk, I joined him...with a small 
pot of water from the kitchen. I 
let him tend to the fawn. 
I stayed away. It was his job. I stood on the 
edge of the 
woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known
 working so hard to save another life. As the tears that 
rolled down my 
face began to hit the ground, they were 
suddenly joined by other drops...and 
more drops...and more. 
I looked up at the sky. It was as if God Himself 
was 
weeping with pride. Some will probably say that this 
was all just 
a huge coincidence. That miracles don't 
really exist. That it was bound 
to rain sometime. And 
I can't argue with that...I'm not going to try. All 

I can say is that the rain that came that day saved our 
farm...just like 
that actions of one little boy saved another.

                            ::You wanna web?::
Third in Four Part Series-"So you wanna webpage?"

    We discussed in the second part of this series how, and how not to
create a web site. In part three of this series we will discuss some of 

the
tools available for you to use out on the web to enhance your site. Many 

of
these tools can be found for free, however, those that are free are usually
the tools that carry ads. As a webmaster you must carefully weigh the pros
and cons of carrying a service that shows content "banner ads" that you 

may
have little or no control over. These tools, when used properly, can
dynamically enhance the content and functionality of your website in ways
that were never possible for us the small web designer. Dynamic content,
email, search engines, community boards, chats, and auctions are just a 

few
of the free plug in features that you can offer to your visitors, all with
the hopes that they will use it and return to use your resources again. 

I
will list off some sites and what they offer to you the webmaster. I won't
go into to much detail because it will be up to you to go visit them if 

you
are interested in a particular service.

1) http://www.everyone.net - This site offers some wonderful plug in options
that give the user great flexibility in terms of integration and site
presentation. All of it's features are very easy to ad to your site no
matter what your level of experience. With this service you can offer:
-Your domain email in a web based format
-Community forums and chat rooms
-A search engine on your site that searches multiple major engines at one
time
-And last but not least, third party ad-sales where you get money for
showing banners on your site (all be it not very much at the present time)

2) http://www.multicity.com - This is a site I recently discovered. Just 

as
with Everyone.net MultiCity offers multiple free plug-in tools that are 

easy
to customize, all for free. MultiCity offers:
-Full function chat rooms
-An instant messenger that is compatible with  ICQ, Yahoo! and MSN (not
aolIM)
-Plug-in auction
-a Message Board
-People Profiles (Not available yet but slated for release)

3) http://www.moreover.com - We discussed this site a little in our last
issue. Moreover dynamically generates news headlines in real time and offers
a great and easy way to add free content to your site.

4) http://www.atomz.com - Offers an amazing and extremely customizable
search engine which you can add to your site that will present searches 

of
your content as professionally as yahoo! does of the web. They even send 

you
monthly tracking reports of what your visitors searched for in your site.
Great Service!

5) http://cirw.cjb.net - Christian Internet Resource  [ I can talk about 

it
because it's not my site :0) ] offers some great tools for beefing up a
Christian site.
-The online CBible (Customizable and searchable)
-Daily Verse Generator
-Random Verse Generator
-Salvation Invitation

6) http://www.crosswalk.com/info/link/0,6351,1,00.htm - Crosswalk.com is
another online Christian Site that offers free web tools.
-Bible/Reference Search
-My investigator (Allows you to search and track finances and portfolios)
-Goshen Web Search that is a safe search of thousands of Christian sites
-Religion Today News and audio - Religion Today is an extensive weekday 

news
report covering church-state issues, religious freedom and persecution,
evangelism, and revival from around the world. (Can you tell I took cut 

and
copied that description?)

  The services that have been listed are all free, however, they do come
with ads (for the most part). If you want to use the services without ads,
then you may have to pay money for those services. Many of the services 

can
be paid for on a monthly basis in order to avoid ads and the appearance 

of
another sites logo on your pages. You must determine your needs and your
resources to figure out what you need. I do, however, always recommend
getting the free version first, just in case you use it and find that it
meets your needs as is.

  These tools, when used correctly, can dramatically increase the
"stickiness" of your site. You may find that the use of one or more of these
tools not only increases the return rate to your site(especially in the 

case
of email), but also the amount of time the visitor actually spends using
your site. Hopefully this will help you create a more attractive and
affective site for the Lord.

  Next time we will get into search engines, promotion, and the "How to's"
of getting people to your site in general.
Until then have fun and praise the Lord with your every action and
intention!

                    ::Dilbert Manager Quotes::

Dilbert Manager Quotes
A magazine ran a "Dilbert quotes" contest. 
They were looking for people 
to submit quotes from 
their real-life Dilbert-type managers. Here are 

the finalists. (Must have been hard choosing the winners)

1. What I need is a list of specific unknown 
problems we will encounter. 
(Lykes Lines Shipping)

2. E-mail is not to be used to pass on information or 
data. It should be 
used only for company business. 
(Accounting manager, Electric Boat Company)

3. This project is so important, we can't let things 
that are more important 
interfere with it. 
(Advertising/Marketing manager, United Parcel Service)

4. Doing it right is no excuse for not meeting the 
schedule. No one will 
believe you solved this problem 
in one day! We've been working on it for 
months. Now, 
go act busy for a few weeks and I'll let you know when 
it's 
time to tell them.(R&D supervisor, Minnesota Mining 
                              
and Manufacturing/3M Corp.)

5. My boss spent the entire weekend retyping a 
25-page proposal that needed 
only corrections. She 
claims the disk I gave her was damaged and she couldn't 

edit it. The disk I gave her was write-protected. (CIO of Dell)

6. Quote from the boss: "Teamwork is a lot of people doing 
what I say." 
(Marketing executive, Citrix Corporation)

7. My sister passed away and her funeral was scheduled 
for Monday. When 
I told my boss, he said she died so 
that I would have to miss work on the 
busiest day of 
the year. He then asked if we could change her burial 
to 
Friday. He said, "That would be better for me." 
(Shipping executive, FTD 
Florists)

8. "We know that communication is a problem, but 
the company is not going 
to discuss it with the 
employees." (Switching supervisor, AT&T Long Lines 
Division)

9. We recently received a memo from senior management, 
saying: This is 
to inform you that a memo will be issued 
today regarding the subject mentioned 
above." 
(Microsoft, Legal Affairs Division)

10. One day my boss asked me to submit a status report 
to him concerning 
a project I was working on. I asked 
him if tomorrow would be soon enough. 
He said, 
"If I wanted it tomorrow, I would have waited until 
tomorrow 
to ask for it!" (New business manager, Hallmark 
Greeting Cards.)

11. As director of communications, I was asked to 
prepare a memo reviewing 
our company's training programs 
and materials. In the body of the memo 
I mentioned 
the "pedagogical" (pedagogical refers to the art of teaching) 

approach used by one of the training manuals.
The day after I routed the memo to the executive committee, 
I was called 
into the HR director's office, and told that 
the executive vice president 
wanted me out of the building by lunch.
When I asked why, I was told that she couldn't stand for 
perverts (pedophilia) 
working in her company.
Finally, he showed me her copy of the memo, with her demand 
that I be fired 
- and the word "pedagogical" circled in red.
The HR manager was fairly reasonable, and once he looked the 
word up in 
his dictionary and made a copy of the definition 
to send back to her, he 
told me not to worry.
He would take care of it. Two days later, a memo to the 
entire staff came 
out, directing us that no words which 
could not be found in the local Sunday 
newspaper could be 
used in company memos. A month later, I resigned.
In accordance with company policy, I created my 
resignation memo by pasting 
words together from the 
Sunday paper. (Taco Bell Corporation)

                              ::Jesus Christ::
  Do you know Jesus Christ as your personal 
  savior?  Do feel like something 

is missing
  in your life?  Do you feel like there is 
  no point to life, you have 

nothing to live
  for?  Are you worried about your future?
  You don't have to read horoscopes, or call
  a psychic hotline to be comforted of your 
  future.  Instead, GOD loves 

you.  And He 
  wants only the best for you.  He knows 
  you inside and 

out, even if you don't know
  Him.  He loves you unconditionally, no strings
  are attached to His love.  He loves you so
  much that He died for you.  He did it so 
  that you and I could spend 

all eternity
  with Him. Do you have Him as your savior?
  He didn't say that we would have all the 
  luxuries of this world, He 

did say that He 
  would provide for us, if only we seek Him.
  Do you have this wonderful gift called 
  Salvation?  If you don't, it's 

easy to get,
  just ask Him you want it.  Commit your life 
  to Him, and He will greatly 

reward you.
      Will you pray?
"Lord Jesus, I admit I am a sinner. I need forgiveness. 
    I am sorry 

for my sins and I don't want to sin against You 
  anymore. I believe You 

are the Son of God and You died on 
the cross for MY sins. I also believe 

that you rose from the dead 
so that I, too, may have victory over the grave. 

Please forgive me 
now Lord and cleanse me. Come into my heart and give 

me a new 
life. Thank You, Jesus, for shedding your blood for me and for 
                         
hearing
                   and answering my prayer. Amen" 

  If you've just prayed 

that, you are a Child
  of GOD.  Think about that!  A child of the
  Creator of the Universe.  It's a humbling
  experience.  If you have anything you 
  want to know about your new life 

with Christ,
  or if you're still not sure about all this,
  please do not hesitate to email me,
