Better than GoPro!
Posted by David Bailey on 23rd Mar 2015
I think the TDCAMDUAL is a great product. I have mine hooked up to my motorcycle. It's better than any GoPro. I get 2 angles which really helps me on my bike.
Excellent Cam

Excellent Results on trip to SC!
Posted by Max McCarty on 12th Feb 2015
This is a review I sent in 2014 regarding the excellent results using you dash cam. I just returned from my trip to South Carolina. I used the Dash Cam on my return trip and though I would just share this info with you. I installed a 32GB card and turned the Cam on when I left Myrtle Beach, I left it on for the entire trip. I left Myrtle Beach at 9:31 AM and arrived back. in Newnan Ga at 3:48 PM. a total travel time of 6 hrs and 17 mins. I downloaded the files from the Cam to my PC. I had it set to record 15 min segments. It created 25 files, took 11.8 GB of space. Mostly pleased with the Cam, only improvement would be to improve the camera lens. Everything is kind of Dark, especially trees. It does do a great job of recording everything. Will be using the CAM on my next trip which will be to KC and then on to Sturgis, SD
better than i expected
Posted by stephan on 28th Jun 2014
installation was a breeze. and i even ran the power wire behind all my trim molding . even doing that it took less than 45 minutes to have the camera mounted and powered up.
video's are awesome.
i plan on buying a 2nd one for my wifes car.
Impressed with my first dash cam
Posted by Kenny on 29th Apr 2014
I am amazed at the quality of the videos and how several hours of the HD quality videos can be stored on such a small memory card.
The instructions left a lot to be desired, especially with selecting the setup features. The good news is, when you call Top Dawg, the person who answers the phone can answer your questions and walk you through the setup - no getting transferred or having to leave a message!

There is a long thread on flickr about this film http://www.flickr.com/groups/ishootf...7628870074419/. Generally people seem to like it, although like anything some are not so keen.
It seems to be very similar to gold 100 but has been treated to allow room temperature storage even in hot climates. Printing characteristics are the same as gold 100.
The only consumer films Kodak still lists are gold 200 and ultramax 400 although I've never found good info on colorplus/kodacolor which I think is still being made.

In addition to super-low input costs, Monument has the
luxury of huge tax incentives. This allows for operating
costs in the lower quartile of industry average, and thus excellent
cash flow to bolster the treasury (annualized OCF of
about $70m at the increased production rate). As of its latest
filing, MMY had working capital of $49m ($21m in cash).
On the financing front MMY has been careful about overdiluting
its shareholders. Following its initial equity financing
to fund the Selinsing build, MMY had only received C$12m
via warrant exercises up until its brand-new multi-tranche
financing that has so far raised C$22m (to fund Mengapur).
As for debt, MMY does have some. And unfortunately it
comes with a bit of hedging. Its August 2010 financing involved
a combination of convertible notes and gold forward
sales. And interestingly the notes came with gold option
agreements and a gold inducement ($1000/oz to $1200/oz).
Thankfully these all add up to only $14m of non-current liabilities
on the balance sheet, definitely not a showstopper !

The world was shocked last night at the news of the passing of actor/comedian Robin Williams. Apple CEO Tim Cook took to Twitter to express his sadness:
Heartbroken by the news of Robin Williams' passing. He was an incomparable talent and a great human being. Rest in peace.
- Tim Cook (@tim_cook) August 12, 2014
For many Apple fans, the news was especially poignant considering that one of his last projects was to provide the voiceover for Apple's "Your Verse" ad for the iPad Air. In the ad, Williams read his monologue from the 1989 film "Dead Poets Society":
The TUAW staff wishes to extend its condolences to the family and close friends of Mr. Williams on their loss.

Kelly Brook worries about looking like a ''balloon'' if she doesn't dress her figure in the most flattering way.
Kelly Brook worries about looking like a ''balloon''.
The model-and-actress - who is in a relationship with former rugby star Thom Evans - always chooses outfits that flatter her curvy figure and accentuate her waist in order to look her best.
She said: ''As a curvy girl, I have to show off my waist and legs otherwise I'd look like a balloon.
''The 50s fit and flare frocks are so flattering and you can add a belt to nip in your waist.''
The brunette beauty thinks red lipstick and her favourite fragrance are all that are needed if she needs to get ready in a hurry.
Asked how she prepares for an event if she has only five minutes, she said: ''Curl my eyelashes, slap on red lipstick and spray on my favourite perfume, Fracas by Robert Piguet.''
And the 'Keith Lemon: The Film' star loves accessorising with vintage-style handbags.
She said: ''I love hard case, vintage-style bags. They're so chic.''

Commodores in command of Starships?
In "The Deadly Years" when Commodore Stocker takes command of the ship, it's only because Kirk has become incapable of command. It's a desperate situation that leads to the Commodore taking action (although he's obviously not a starship commander by trade).
Yet, "The Doomsday Machine" and "The Ultimate Computer" present us with Commodores who are seemingly in actual regular command of their ships: Commodore Decker of the USS Constellation, and Commodore Wesley of the USS Lexington.
We might excuse Wesley as being another unique situation, as they're testing out the capabilities of the M-5 in a battle scenario. Maybe he's only the temporary commander of the Lexington for the purposes of that particular test run.
On the other hand, the script of "The Doomsday Machine" basically assumes that Decker is the proper master of Constellation, that he is the captain except for his rank. Unless we are to assume that the Constellation's own captain died and Decker (like Stocker) simply happened to be on-board and took command?
What's the real-life protocol in these situations? Was it ever common in the real navy for a ship's regular "captain" to actually be a commodore? :confused:
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
^ And Decker wore command gold. Stocker didn't.
Stocker was a commodore who was used to desk duty (commanding starbases and things like that). Other commodores, like Decker and Wesley, were starship captains in their own right.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
I always found it a nice gesture to setting: that Enterprise was part of a working space navy that also had other, more important ships commanded by officers of flag rank. (The transformation of Kirk into the setting's Ultimate Gary Stu and Enterprise into the Fleet's Most Important Ship Evar came later.)
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
When The Motion Picture was in the planning stages, the idea was suggested that Kirk be promoted to Commodore rather than Admiral, because it was infered in the original series that it was demonstraby much easier for an Commodore to simply 'take' command of a ship without needing to take a reduction in rank to do so. An Admiral doing the same thing is a much bigger deal, and (it was felt) a little harder to realistically justify.
I guess they chose not to do that because 'Admiral Kirk' had a more impressive ring to it than 'Commodore Kirk'.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
Shouldn't have been a problem, really. Don't Admirals (Rear Admirals at least) pretty routinely take command of ships and use them as flagships? I guess maybe it's a problem if you want the Admiralty to be the equivalent of That Stupid Chief that McGarnickle has to go around to Get Results...
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
^ I think in a real-life situation an Admiral wouldn't be "on the pulse" during such a command. Traditionally he'd be given his own command centre and would liase remotely with the main bridge, but to take the TMP situation as an example, Kirk would be in his quarters or an office on another deck or something, and not actually on the bridge (that'd be Decker's job). Of course this doesn't work dramatically, as we want to 'see' William Shatner in the big chair again, which is why the production team debated whether it'd just be easier to bump him to Commodore rather than Admiral, because it had been established in TOS that Commodores had that kind of authority.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
From Wiki:
Commodore is a military rank used in many navies that is superior to a navy captain, but below a rear admiral. Non-English-speaking nations often use the rank of flotilla admiral or counter admiral as an equivalent, although the latter may also correspond to rear admiral.
Traditionally, "commodore" is the title for any officer assigned to command more than one ship at a time, even temporarily, much as "captain" is the traditional title for the commanding officer of a single ship even if the officer's official title in the service is a lower rank. As an official rank, a commodore typically commands a flotilla or squadron of ships as part of a larger task force or naval fleet commanded by an admiral.
It is often regarded as a one-star rank with a NATO code of OF-6 (which is known in the U.S. as "rear admiral (lower half)"), but whether it is regarded as a flag rank varies between countries.[1]
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
Decker does indeed seem to be CO of Constellation and no other vessels. Wesley seems to be Lexington's CO as well as task force commander.
My usual pet explanation for the situation is that starships are organized in divisions (or squadrons if you prefer) of three or four ships. The captain of one of them has the rank of commodore and is division commander on paper, but in practice the ships are spread all over space on different assignments so the division command doesn't come into play very often. Wesley could be an example of the division commander actually taking command, but an oddity is that he wears the Starbase/Starfleet Command badge.
Side note: Decker would not be "master" of Constellation, that term applies to captains of merchant ships.
The early US Navy, small and lean, used the "second class" commodores extensively. Como. Preble, who made a great reputation for the USN in the Barbary Campaign, was captain of Constitution as well as squadron commander. Thomas Truxtun, the "star" captain of the Quasi-War with France, had refused the command because the Navy Department wouldn't assign a captain under him for his flagship.
There was a time after the Civil War when a few USN commodores (a permanent one-star rank, by then) were assigned command of large warships, without an associated squadron command. This was mostly an aberration caused by the numbers of senior officers created for the war, and after the navy had down-sized in the 1870s it didn't happen any more.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
I think Star Trek, especially in its post-TOS incarnations, tried to be too identical to contemporary US Navy rankings. It's the freaking future dammit, and doesn't have to abide with our current standards.
I sort of liked the strangeness (to Americans at least) of Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation series Fireball XL5-- a Colonel is commanding officer of the ship, but the head guy at the Earth base is a Commander with a Lieutenant as his assistant. I don't know if that's patterned after Royal Air Force or what. I adapted Fireball's style into my own fictional universe to keep it from looking too much like a Trek clone.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
A few things to add:
The only Commodore I know of in the current US Navy is a commander of a submarine squadron. The captain of a submarine is an 0-5 rank (Commander). He is called captain because Navy convention is anyone in charge of a vessel is called captain.
The commodore has the rank of 0-6 captain and is in charge of a submarine squadron.
I don't know for sure but I think if a commodore was on board a boat and the captain was incapable of command the XO would take over command of the vessel not the Commodore. Same goes for admiral/captain aboard an Aircraft Carrier.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
Does anyone know offhand whether any 'captains' of lesser ships in Star Trek were shown to be of rank less than captain?
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
NB. This is disputed by some on this board, as some think the Professor in the episode (a civilian no less) was in command or the normal captain was somewhere else. I don't think there is anything to support that.
Re: Commodores in command of Starships?
The timing didn't quite work but could have had a great tie in if Commodore Kirk did the commercials for the Commodore Vic 20

Indonesian Bonds Rise on Central Bank Purchases; Rupiah Gains
Indonesia's 10-year government bonds extended last week's advance on speculation the central bank was buying the debt to hold down borrowing costs. The rupiah rose.
The yield fell to a three-week low as Perry Warjiyo, the central bank's director of economic research and monetary policy, said Bank Indonesia will weigh the impact of a November interest-rate cut on capital flows during a monthly policy meeting being held this week. Economists in a Bloomberg News survey forecast the central bank will keep its benchmark interest rate at 6 percent on Dec. 8. Policy makers lowered the reference rate by 75 basis points since the start of October.
"The increasing bond price in the last one week is supported by Bank Indonesia and local banks," said Handy Yunianto, a fixed-income analyst at Mandiri Sekuritas in Jakarta. "There is very good communication between BI and the government. We learned a lot from the 2008 crisis."
The yield on the 8.25 percent notes due July 2021 fell nine basis points, or 0.09 percentage point, to 6.19 percent in Jakarta, according to closing prices from the Inter Dealer Market Association. That was the lowest level since Nov. 14. The rate dropped 54 basis points last week.
The rupiah appreciated 0.2 percent to 9,035 per dollar, according to prices from local banks compiled by Bloomberg.
"If we look at it from the point of view of slowing inflation, of course there's still room to cut interest rates further," Warjiyo told reporters in Jakarta today. "But the problem is that the decision on interest rates isn't dependent only on inflation, but also from the point of view of its impact on capital outflows."
The monetary authority is committed to buying government bonds in the secondary market, Warjiyo said on Nov. 29. The central bank plans to boost "intervention" to support the rupiah, Governor Darmin Nasution said Nov. 30, a day after the currency sank to a 17-month low of 9,240 per dollar. Indonesia's inflation rate dropped to a 19-month low of 4.15 percent in November, the government reported Dec. 1.

Labeling unitizes two cartons at Baxter Healthcare
Baxter saves $40 a year in materials by unitizing two cartons with two labels rather than adding an outer paperboard sleeve. This is accomplished on a one-of-a-kind labeler from CCL Labeling Equipment. The labeler is equipped with an Allen-Bradley laser scanner CCL thermal-transfer imprinter and an Allen-Bradley system that provides 100% on-line verification of product identification bar-code labels. After a carton emerges from a compression station it drops into a staging area where a pusher arm moves it against the back of the area to provide space for the subsequent carton. The two side-by-side cartons are held vertically. The two cartons are gently compressed for label application. Two labels are applied by two labeling heads one at each end of the compressed cartons. Labels are supplied by Fasson Roll Division (Painesville OH). The 50# paper release liner/adhesive/facestock label is printed and die-cut by Label Printers (Aurora IL). Labels are mounted on two unwinds on the CCL labeler and applied in a two-stage process. In a first stage the printed labels are scanned by an A-B laser scanner mounted to the CCL unit. Next a CCL ALX-910 thermal-transfer imprinter prints lot and expiration date. The preprinted bar code is then verified by an A-B decoder. "This is essential so that the proper labels are always applied to the proper cartons" says Stevens. "We've always done this but soon the FDA will require 100-percent on-line verification of all printed label materials." McMillan adds "By verifying prior to label application we make sure an inappropriate label will not be applied." Finally labels index to a second stage where two vacuumized pneumatic applicators apply labels to carton ends. At both ends of the cartons a set of rollers flatten the label to both ends and about 4" down the sides of the cartons. The result is a unitized 24-pack that requires no outer sleeve hence the material savings. Each label contains a small tab. By pulling the tab the hospital pharmacist can separate the cartons as needed. The label material's proportional tear characteristics allow for a clean straight tear. With the tear strip removed both cartons have identical end labels.

BofA's Moynihan Sees Economic 'Grind' as Firms Avoid Risk
Bank of America Corp. Chief Executive Officer Brian T. Moynihan said U.S. economic growth will be slow next year and that companies aren't using stockpiles of cash to build their businesses.
"2012 will be another year that's a grind in the economy," Moynihan, 52, said today at an economic outlook conference held in Charlotte, North Carolina, where the company is based. "Never have middle-market and large companies been as profitable, had as much cash on their balance sheet, had as much availability on their lines, but they haven't done anything with the money. They don't feel the certainty of opportunity to make big investments."
Bank of America, the second-biggest U.S. lender by deposits, is cutting costs amid stagnant revenue. The company has been hurt by weak economic growth and concern that Europe's debt crisis will spread through the world's financial system. Shares of the firm dropped more than 60 percent this year and fell below $5 today for the first time since March 2009.
The U.S. economy may expand about 2.1 percent next year, Moynihan said. Consumer spending was "modestly encouraging" at about 5 percent higher this month than the year-earlier period, he said. Employment won't improve "a lot" in 2012, he said.
Slower Growth
Moynihan's comments follow an economic report last week from Bank of America researchers that projected that the U.S. economy will slow to 1 percent growth by the fourth quarter of 2012 as Europe enters recession.
The risk from a European sovereign default "is not what people think," Moynihan said. Bank of America had about $14.6 billion at risk in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain as of Sept. 30, compared with about $16.7 billion at the end of the second quarter.
"It's not the bank balance sheets that's really under attack here for us or our competitors," Moynihan said. "The risk is that an economy which in the aggregate is as big as the U.S. having a recessionary environment obviously pulls down worldwide growth."
Record low yields for U.S. Treasuries amid rising borrowing costs for some European nations, a so-called flight to quality, is another sign that "no one is taking risk," Moynihan said.
There was "no question" that new international rules for bank capital have lowered the lender's leverage, Moynihan said. An increase of 1 percent in capital requirements cuts the ability to lend by about 10 percent, he said.
Achieving Balance
"The question is, did we get the balance right," Moynihan said, "Or did we swing the pendulum too far where we've underleveraged financial services to have an effect on growth?"
Moynihan spoke as part of a panel that included Jeffrey Lacker, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, who said impediments to economic growth will be "deeper and more persistent than we thought a year ago."
Obstacles Lacker cited include the oversupply of housing, a mismatch of skills between unemployed people and new jobs, changes in tax policy and regulations and the "murky federal budget outlook."
Another panelist, Duke Energy Corp. CEO Jim Rogers, drew laughter by referencing Bank of America's failed attempt to charge some customers $5 per month to use their debit cards.
"Talking about the economy is so depressing," Rogers said. "I was about to pull some data from Bank of America, but they wanted to charge me 5 bucks."

"The Watcher" is a meticulously crafted but resolutely routine serial killer suspense thriller. While intelligently plotted and well-acted by James Spader, Keanu Reeves and Marisa Tomei, it is neither acutely suspenseful nor particularly thrilling but instead mainly numbing. You're left wishing that Oscar-winning cinematographer Michael Chapman's glorious lensing of Chicago was in the service of a far more engaging and original movie.
Spader plays Campbell, an FBI specialist in serial killers who has failed to nail the killer of 11 women in Los Angeles. He's gone into hiding in Chicago, where he's under heavy medication and regular therapy from a psychologist (Tomei). Naturally, the killer (Reeves) soon pops up in the Windy City to continue singling out largely solitary young women for strangling with piano wire. Tomei's Polly assures Campbell that, as burned-out as he is, he's still the guy best qualified to continue trying to nab Reeves' Griffin, who always dresses in black.
As time passes and Griffin still eludes Campbell, writers David Elliot and Clay Ayers begin offering a few observations, primarily that Griffin needs to feel that Campbell specifically is pursuing him. It gives him an added kick, and it would seem that he has, in a sense, fallen in love with the FBI agent--though that would scarcely stop him from killing him if he could.
The film, which has been directed with energy and dispatch by Joe Charbanic, takes its title from Griffin's careful observation of the daily routines of the women he chooses as his victims; it also allows the serial killer to make the point that "We don't notice each other anymore," thus enabling him to get away with killing largely anonymous young women, such as a clerk in a shopping mall photo developing store and a homeless young runaway, panhandling in the streets.
But that's about it for content. It's good to see an actor who radiates as much intelligence as Spader capably hold down a major role in a big action movie, but Reeves is asked no more than to be insinuatingly evil and clearly crazed, and Tomei is required little more than to register lots of empathy for Spader's Campbell. Among the supporting players, Chris Ellis is a standout as the kind of dedicated, confident cop that we wish all police officers could be.
The Watcher, 2000. MPAA-rated: R, for violence and language. A Universal Pictures presentation in association with Interlight of a Lewitt/Eberts-Choni/Niami production. Director Joe Charbanic. Producers Christopher Eberts, Elliot Lewitt, Jeff Rice, Nile Niami. Executive producers Patrick Choi, Paul Pompian. Screenplay by David Elliot and Clay Ayers; from a story by Darcy Meyers and Elliot. Cinematographer Michael Chapman. Editor Richard Nord. Music Marco Beltrami. Visual effects supervisor Rodney Iwashina. Costumes Jay Hurley. Production designers Brian Eatwell, Maria Caso. Art director Jeff Wallace. Set designer Pat Raney. Set decorator Caroline Perzan. Running time: 1 hour, 34 minutes. James Spader as Campbell. Marisa Tomei as Polly. Keanu Reeves as Griffin. Ernie Hudson as Ibby. Chris Ellis as Hollis[.

I've been car free for the last 2 and a half years. Most of that time has been spent in a semi-major city where public transport is sublime and walking is completely reasonable, but i recently moved to Southern California. For the past 4 months I've been riding 7 miles to and from work and to get everywhere else too.
Rewind to last week. I was at a concert and dislocated my knee.
I've never wanted a car more than I do now. I'm getting by between, but damn it, this sucks.
And even worse, my supposedly good insurance provider can't get me an ortho appointment until the 25th. ****ers. Assuming nothing is seriously wrong, i'll be back on the bike a few weeks after that.
Mostly this is a pity party. Anyone got similar car-free injury stories?

Old Mole Variety Hour August 9th (incomplete)
The theme of today's show - hosted by Bill Resnick (on the left) - could aptly be called "South of the Border." Virtually all of the show turns its eyes to South American politics, but also the harsh realities of humanitarian aid. It features South American rebel-music by Intli-illimani, which Bill discusses in the end. Below are links to the other portions of the show.
1. Jan Haaken and Fran Michel review Oliver Stone's new movie about the South American political landscape, "South of the Border."
2. Bill interviews Mark Weisbrot, co-author of South of the Border, about the rise and status of South American popular governments.
3. Jan interviews Sophie Smith about No More Deaths, a humanitarian group delivering aid to undocumented immigrants.
4. Well Read Red, Bill Resnick, reflects on the over-turning of the gay-marriage ban in California.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Because we were given an extra 15 minutes on short notice, the CD on which we record the show for editing and posting on the web ran up. There is a KBOO technician working on extracting the missing portion from a master-log we keep, but it will probably take through the weekend. You can still listen to the listed segments from the show. The whole show is below, but cuts off about ten minutes prior to the end.

Bringing Life Back To The Arizona Film Industry
Jan. 15, 2014
Thursday at the state Capitol, a new push begins to reestablish Arizona's state film office. With deep budget deficits and a seeming aversion to offering incentives, the state has lost a number of film projects, including blockbusters like "Django Unchained" to competing neighbors like New Mexico.
Shelli Hall, director of the Tucson Film Office, said bringing back the state film office could be huge for the Arizona economy.

Kenosis is a theological error concerning Jesus' incarnation. The kenosis attempts to solve some paradoxes between the nature of God and of man as united in Jesus. For example, how could an all-knowing God become a baby, or how could God be tempted? The kenosis maintains that God, when he became a man, divested Himself of some qualities of being a man. In a sense, the kenosis is God minus something--God subtracting some qualities of deity to become a man. The correct view is called the Hypostatic Union which is God plus something--God adding human nature to Himself. The kenosis, then, jeopardizes the true incarnation because it puts in doubt the full indwelling of God among men in the person of Jesus. (Compare with Jesus' Two Natures: God and Man).

Henry Joel Simmons | July 25, 2011
Politicians from both ends of the political spectrum in North Carolina and Ohio recently enacted comprehensive legislation in their states resulting from justice reinvestment initiatives, according to the Justice Reinvestment Project's blog. Both states' bills will increase public safety and reduce crime by changing probation, extending serious violent crime sentences, and expanding sentencing options for first-time and nonviolent offenders.
North Carolina established structured sentencing seventeen years ago, and has since been a model for prison capacity management. In recent years, however, probation revocations are on the rise, and a number of sentence enhancements have passed which have placed great strain on the corrections system. Projections estimate that the prison population could grow by 10% by 2020.
In response, a group of nonprofit policy organizations led by the Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center (of which the Justice Reinvestment Project is a subsidiary) allied with the governor and a number of other legislative leaders to analyze justice reinvestment approaches to reduce spending and increase public safety.
The reports found that 15% of released prisoners were released with supervision, most offenders completed their sentences in prison, and high-risk offenders frequently returned to the community unsupervised. Furthermore, community treatment programs were not being properly targeted to those who would benefit the most from such services.
The Justice Reinvestment Act passed with near-unanimous support, and was signed into law June 23rd of this year. The details of the law are found on the North Carolina Assembly's website. The law will change probation significantly, assessing penalties for rule breakers, and closing up a number of loopholes. The law also focuses community-based treatment programs on those who need them most, and it expands drug diversion programs.
Ohio passed a justice reinvestment package in 2008, when their prisons were at 133% capacity. Like North Carolina, Ohio looked to the CSG Justice Center, which recommended a 13-point policy framework to the legislature. This framework was consolidated along with a number of other reforms into House Bill 86, which Right On Crime previously discussed here.
Ohio hopes to save around $46 million by 2015, while greatly increasing public safety. North Carolina is projected to save $290 million over six years while also seeing a drop in its crime rate.

Diversity: not too diverseAcceptance of sexual orientation: people are very open
People like to make Georgetown out to be a community of all upper-class white Catholic kids, but that is far from the truth. Georgetown is a Catholic school, but has a significant number of Jewish students, Muslim students, and students of other religions. A lot of students are well-to-do, yes, but I also have several friends who were homeless in high school. The community is completely accepting of LGBT, I've never met anybody who didn't accept someone for being gay, and we have a pretty large LGBT population. There are tons of international students and a higher rate of minorities than most other top-tier or Catholic schools. People are open to dialogue about differing backgrounds too, and don't just stick to hanging out with people from their ethnic group.
Georgetown is FULL of international students. The religious community is amazing as well.
More liberal but everyone is accepted, mostly.
Georgetown is a very international university, so there is a high level of ethnic heritages and national origins. It's cost, however, reduces the amount of economic diversity. At the same time, the University is pretty good about giving financial aid which brings it above the level of others (George Washington, for example). The campus is pretty overwhelmingly democrat with a small, but vocal, group of republicans. Sexual orientation can be a more controversial subject on campus due to the presence of some religiously conservative elements. However, the campus is overall very accepting. The last student body president, for example, was openly gay.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Georgetown is a very cosmopolitan place, with students representing more than 100 countries and all 50 states of the union. So if you are aiming to meet a variety of people in college, Georgetown will definitely provide a nice avenue through which this can be done. The only issue is that although these people will be from a variety of geographic locations, they will, for the most part, represent a similar, middle- to upper-class, socioeconomic status. On top of that, there is a definite preponderance of Jersey/New York/California white kids from private Jesuit high schools. Georgetown has diversity for those looking, but as the adage goes, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink"—so some students choose not to find that on campus.
One facet of Georgetown's diversity that is particularly unique is not the number of international students—as those students tend to segregate themselves among their own at most universities—but the number of internationally-minded people. Most of these students were born and raised in America, but their parents were not. This gives them awareness of the world and cultures outside of "the norm." Any number of languages can be heard while you walk through the halls, and nearly every student has been out of the country multiple times. To top it off, there are a number of fascinating "outliers" who you meet fairly frequently, from the granddaughter of the first Latvian president to the daughter of the last Shah.

Figure 4.
Comparisons between detection rate, capture probability and survival in the wild. Relationship between rate of detection by humans of images of three pygmy grasshopper colour morphs (striped, black and grey) presented against samples of visual backgrounds on a computer screen and rate of capture (a) and rate of survival (b) of free-ranging female (open symbols) and male (black symbols) live grasshoppers in the wild. Estimates of capture and total survival rate in the wild were computed from mark-recapture data. Total survival rate was computed as the product of survival probabilities for 5 separate time periods for each morph and sex. For details see Forsman and Appelqvist [29]. Figure shows mean ± s.e.
