Skip to comments.Scoring the CNBC Debate: Romney and Gingrich Shine; Perry Doesnt
Posted on 11/10/2011 7:09:06 AM PST by SeekAndFind
No one touched Romney. He was unflappable and knowledgeable. He again showed the right political instinct to want to address the struggles of the middle class, although his tax plan doesnt do it. His China-bashing will probably play well in the Midwest, although its foolhardy on the merits. He consistently got applause. I remember one of the early debates when Romney was flying above the other candidates and PawlentyI thinkattacked him and he declined to reply, saying thats fine. He said the same thing tonight when Santorum went after him. After all the churning in the race, Romney is in the same basically comfortable place he was in several months ago.
Gingrich was on his game from the beginning when he let loose a ringing anti-Bernake, anti-food stamps, anti-Alinsky answer. This was the Newt everyone thought wed see before he got in the race. I thought he was much too irritable with the moderators, but a GOP audience probably doesnt mind and Maria Bartiromo matched him unpleasantness for unpleasantness. The narrative about his rise will continue.
Cain was fun as always. He got off a couple of great lines and was helped by the ill-advised decision of the moderators to press him about the sexual harassment accusations in his forum. His frequent resort to 999 still gets laughs, although eventually the charm of this trope will wear thin. On substance, he clearly lacks the fluidity of a Romney or the depth of a Gingrich.
I thought Perry would get better after his first debate. I was wrong. I thought he couldnt do worse than his last few debate performances. I was wrong. His blank moment on the three cabinet agencies was very uncomfortable to watch. It could happen to any of us, but having it happen to him, on this stage, was devastating. Perry passed on a couple of chances to hit Romney, so clearly his hope was to just skate through this debate, and he couldnt manage it. Its shame for him, but will presumably help Gingrich and Cain.
To his credit, Santorum continued to be the only Republican willing to acknowledge and address the economic travails of people without a college degree. But hes not as compelling as the other candidates, and theres always one unfortunate moment in every debate where he feels he has to brag, in rapid-fire fashion, about all the wonderful things hes done. Bachmann was basically a non-factor. Notably, she persists in arguing that people who arent paying federal income taxes arent participating fully in American lifeits the reverse side of Elizabeth Warrenism. Huntsman was annoying. I find myself increasingly charmed by old Ron Paul.
cain nailed every shot taken and him.
also, cain had the line of the night
on frank and dodd.
C'mon....ADMIT IT! ....You really hate Romney because he's a Mormon. You'll do anything you can to get someone else.
and = at
No one touched Romney. He was unflappable and knowledgeable.
was he watching the same debate i was ???
RINO inside the beltway banter.
We need leadership skills not policy wonks.
Playing it safe and pandering may get Romney elected, but he'll fail as President because pandering is leading from the rear. We have one of those already. I won't go to the polls for Romney. There isn't enough of a difference to bother to show up.
Mitt, Newt, and Cain all had good nights. Huntsman, Bachmann, too. But their numbers are so far down, I don't see them really making an impact.
Paul and Santorum were true to their principals,...but didn't move people to their camp.
Perry blew it, I think. Not a bash, just an observation.
He again showed the right political instinct to want to address the struggles of the middle class, although his tax plan doesnt do it.
Yeah that "political instinct"
Lil Willie Mitty the trust fund baby doesnt know middle class...
Im sure he has the "political instint" to ask one of his handlers about lives of the peons though..
But they dont seem to know either...
His 59 tax plan sounds like something from Obamas play book...
It's coming down to Cain, Gingrich and Romney. Should be interesting.
You really hate Romney because hes a Mormon
Since you mentioned it..
"Seed of Cain" is going to beat "white and delightsome"
is that why you are upset RomneyBot ???
Exactly, I thought Romney was REALLY good at dodging all the questions and especially good at throwing Cain under the bus...the people can decide that for themselves he said regarding whether HE would hire someone like Cain.
The money and support is pouring in for Herman Cain, but we cannot slow down now. Please help him by donating at http://www.hermancain.com/
Also to help join the buzz about Herman go to facebook.com and like him. His likes have jumped dramatically since the attacks started. Make no mistake Sean Hannitys BFF Tokyo Rove is watching Hermans likes and so is Romney. THIS is the way to stick it to the GOP establishment! Please tell your family and friends to like Herman as well. Then lets bring out our most powerful tool for helping Herman Cain: PRAYING that God protects him from the people of darkness.
Yes, Perry blew it big time and he seriously needs to withdraw from the race. He's become a joke and will not be able to overcome the gaffe last night. I liken it to a Howard Dean scream moment and know he'll be spoofed unmercifully (you know SNL will do a skit).
I cringe thinking how Obama would eat him up and spit him out in a debate if he were to get the nomination.
..establishment spin and complete nonsense...
Debate true score, no bias, Gingrich, Cain, Romney!!! Romney cannot beat Obama!!! So....my choices for POTUS are Cain/Gingrich, Cain/Rubio, Cain/Palin, Gingrich/Cain, and the only one that will work for Mitt Romney, Romney/Cain!!! Romney, IMHO will turn to Cain as his VP choice. Both Cain & Romney are tight!!! Best ticket IMHO by a long shot = Herman Cain/Marco Rubio!!! Not only the best ticket, but......the winning one, by a landslide of unforeseen proportions!!!!
I hate RINOmney because he couldn't maintain direction even if he were on rails.
He's a spineless t*rd with no ability to keep an idea for more than a few microseconds.
I don't give a smelly Obama about the fact that he's a Mormon. I've not met any Mormon I've not liked and respected...but thankfully, I've not met RINOmney..., since that would ruin my record.
May the flies of a thousand camels come to rest in his beer.
If you wanted real leadership and solutions, you loved Cain and Newt.
So what do you want GOP? Style with out substance or substance without style?
( Herman Cain)he clearly lacks the fluidity of a Romney
Oops the author didnt edit for errors...
He meant to write fraudulence..
I'm liking Newt more and more.
the only one that will work for Mitt Romney, Romney/Cain!!! Romney, IMHO will turn to Cain as his VP choice.
Romneys SLC handlers wont let him have Cain as VP...
Please, please, please reconsider! Especially if Romney is the GOP nominee, it is important for us to vote. If Obama wins, we need a conservative Congress to stop the rapid spread of socialism from a far left White House. If Romney wins, we need a conservative Congress to stop the moderately rapid spread of socialism from a moderately leftist White House. Either way, we need every conservative in the country out there voting in the primaries and again on election day, 2012. I don't care whether it's Obama or Romney either, but I care a whole lot about the Congress that we have to protect America from either of them.
I doubt if Romney has any blacks working for him...
Bull Shiite Muslim. There is a big difference between Hussein and Romney.
There is a big difference between Hussein and Romney.
Ones half black and half white ???
and the other is half white with a black heart against unborn babies...
Cain is a lightweight.His 999 routine is getting old.Its time he went back to selling pizza.
I strongly believe that Obummer is driving us into Fascism. Of course Fascism does come with a heavy dose of socialism.
I furthermore predict that the leftist President will start soon to condemn private businesses and will try to make the point that it is time for Government to take control in order to protect the public.
We are sliding fast and cannot allow another four years of domination by this administration.
Romney is my least favorite except for Huntsman. He is a slick, wishy-washy man. On the other hand, 0bama and his Administration are pure evil. They will destroy the country if given four more years in power. At least with Romney if we get a majority in the Senate and House, we have a chance of slowing or turning back the destruction because we can keep his timid feet to the fire on important things.
That alone is reason enough to vote for him even though he is one of the worst choices on our side. It's either that, or America is finished as a constitutional republic.
Those are sad choices, but they may be what we have to work with in 2012. I refuse to cut off my nose to spite my face by going either for a third party and a sure loser or staying home and getting four years with a wicked man in charge.
I would rather have Romney than certain violence and increasing breakdown at home and abroad. We may get it anyhow, but at least with him we have a chance to turn things away from the sure catastrophy we now face.
If Romney is the candidate,
You understand that. He understands that.
The GOP understands that. The DNC wants that.
Instead the name of the best alternative or 3rd party
will be put in TO PUT IN THE MOST CONSERVATIVE.
The Elite in Washington like Romney because they know he will keep things pretty much the same as they are in Washington. Plus they can control him.
Cain is the people's choice and has great integerity compared to the rest. Why else do you think the establishment (both parties) are trashing Cain's character. They KNOW the people trust Cain, but DO NOT TRUST the rest.
Rick Perry has to be the stupidest son of a bitch that ever ran for president.He makes GW Bush look like Stephen Hawking.
He has to be the worst candidate I ever saw in my 56 years.He is beyond laughable.
I will not vote for Romney, and certainly not for the drug-addled communist occupying our White House, but I will vote. I'll vote for the House, for the Senate, and for state and local candidates. I'll write in Palin/Cain, or Cain/Bachmann, or Bachmann/DeMint, or some other acceptable combination for the White House, but I will not under any circumstances vote for Mitt. And, no, I don't see that as a vote for Obama. I see it as a vote against either a rapid (Obama) or a slow (Mitt) transition to socialism.
You see, even though the great majority of you will not publicly admit it, private conversations with many conservatives around the nation leads me to believe that it is almost solely because of his (Romney's) religion that you will refuse to support him. I am hoping to get that out into the open so we can argue it out and get over it.
Romney has made some mistakes in the past that makes him seem like a flip-flopper. We know many of the same people, Romney and I, and I am convinced that he has ALWAYS been anti-abortion. He has ALWAYS been anti gay marriage. He has ALWAYS been a genuine fiscal conservative. In fact, I believe most of you would agree with 90% of his positions 90% of the time. His mistake was pretending to be a moderate in order to get elected in ultra liberal Mass. I think he is trying to correct that now, but that is HIS poor judgement so he's going to have to live with it.
Besides he ranks HIGHER in all national polls vis a vis he ability to beat Obama in 2012.
I'm just sayin', if you refuse to vote for Romney because he's a Mormon, just say so. Lets hash it out and get past it so we can unseat the greatest threat to the American republic since King George.
And Perry is still a whole lot better than Mitt Romney.
"He has ALWAYS been anti gay marriage. He has ALWAYS been a genuine fiscal conservative. In fact, I believe most of you would agree with 90% of his positions 90% of the time. His mistake was pretending to be a moderate in order to get elected in ultra liberal Mass. I think he is trying to correct that now, but that is HIS poor judgement so hes going to have to live with it."
I'm glad someone else is trying to get through to some of these thick heads.
It was pointed out last nite that that while he was Gov. of Ma. he had to go against/work with an 85% Liz Warren/Nancy Pelosi type democrats in the legislature.He always worked against illeagal aliens and was for the death penalty and for tax cuts.
If Mitt has at least one republican branch of congress to work with he will be a suitable conservative without a doubt.
Cain is going to need a huge amount of support to overcome the establishment. If it happens, I will be pleasantly surprised, keyword: surprised. I'm starting to believe Gingrich is the most conservative that the establishment will allow to win. Whether he can beat Obama is questionable. Ginrgich absolutely needs a minority on the VP ticket.
fluidity = slipperyness
Perry's campaign is over. Now.... I wonder if he will throw his support/supporters behind Newt Gingrich? At the debates, Perry consistently nods his head in approval of everything Newt has to say.
Newt won this debate as he has all the others. I like Cain as my second choice, that being said I will vote for and support the Republican nominee, it's too important not to. My first choice for "The Ticket" would be GINGRICH / DeMINT
That was the general attitude here toward McCain IIRC. Then he picked a conservative running mate and most of us went and pulled the lever for him (holding noses, of course).
I think Romney looks like a Ken doll.
Perfectly primped & sidestepping anything useful.
I laughed at his attempt to appear 'the common man' when he wore a plaid shirt & jeans to one appearance in Iowa. I'll bet the price tag was still on those jeans & shirt!!!
Were both Rubio's parents born in the USA? I thought they came from Cuba???
If not, he is not Natural Born & he is not eligible to be either Pres- VP or even Speaker of the house. No position where he could succeed into Oval Office.
Please, not this crap again. Rubio was and raised in the US therefore is eligible to serve as Pres.....end of story.

A recent version of this plugin - released within the last two weeks - had PHP errors flying in my header and deleted my form styles. So backup your website before updating.
That being said this plugin works, it syncs nicely with my client's CC account and I've never had an issue with that aspect.
Almost 5 stars. I'm using the plugin to bring events from CC to the website and the individual shortcodes work well. The filters and well documented, so with a bit of CSS and PHP in my functions file, I was able to change working and layout. The one thing I want (and this has been posted in the support form) is the ability to specify a sort order for the shortcode that lists all events. Given that, 5 stars with a smiley face!
The plugin has only been running a few days now but I find it very useful and the Form Designer (and default subscribe form) are much nicer than the hideous code that comes as a cut-&-paste snippet from Constant Contact.
I like a lot of the features and the fact that a few base tasks are integrated into my WP Dashboard so that I don't have to constantly navigate over the Constant Contact to check something.
Could use a bit more control in the design functions. However, much appreciated plugin!
The password locked. I reset the password and still give me the same error!

Anyone want to help me bang out a quick medal count plugin? I've been trying to find an XML feed of the medal count - but no such luck yet. Google has a medal count that shows up if you just type "olympics medal count" but that's not on my blog :P
Anyone want to help me bang out a quick medal count plugin? I've been trying to find an XML feed of the medal count - but no such luck yet. Google has a medal count that shows up if you just type "olympics medal count" but that's not on my blog :P
that would be interesting i would love to have something on my blog like this too
That's the cleanest source of data I've seen so far - just a plain table.
The NBC olympics one loads the data in arrays so that you can sort it by different categories.
Yahoo! has RSS feeds for the medal count. Not sure how often the feed is updated.
That RSS feed is probably a good source. It still doesn't have the data in XML - the data is sent out in an HTML table. Not a bad start. I might play with this later today if I get time.
What's the best way to snag data in PHP? Does it have good support for regular expressions, or am I going to have to write a script to troll through and manually parse it out of the table?
i think it would also be cool for when the world cup comes to have a similiar plugin
I got something working using the CG FeedReader plugin, a little bit of CSS work - and that RSS feed you sent me.
Here's the way you do it... First download and install the CG-PowerBack:
(The latest version for 1.5.13 works fine for WordPress 2.0) - install those plugins with the instructions given
In your sidebar.php - add the following: (Replace "Title you want" with whatever titling method you use inside your sidebar. I use
<h2> tags...)
<div id="medalcount"> Title you want
$feedUrl = "http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/torino2006/medals/rss.xml";
$feedOut = getSomeFeed($feedUrl, $maxItemsPerFeed=1, $showDetails=true, $cacheName="feed-medalcount", $filterCat='',$tLimit = -1, $dLimit = -1, $noHTML = false,
$showTime = true, $feedStyle = 0, $noTitle = true, $showTimeGMT = false, $titleImages = false, $multiSiteTitle=false,$makeRSS=false, $rssName="CG-FeedRead Multifeed", $rssLink="http://www.chait.net/");
if ($feedOut)
echo $feedOut;
In your CSS file, if you want to get rid of the titles so it blends in better, include these lines:
.medalcount .feedDescription {
display: none;
.medalcount .feedItemTitle {
margin: 0.5em 0 0 0;
.medalcount .feedItem tr.last {
display: none;
.medalcount .meta {
font-size: 0.9em;
padding: 0.5em;
That will get rid of the "Powered by Chevy Tahoe" line - along with the other lines, but will still link to Yahoo for the main medal count page.
This solution works for me, so I'm not interested in building a custom plugin just for the next two weeks. When the worldcup comes along, just pray that Yahoo has an RSS feed for that medalcount, and this would be very simple to implement for that too (provided they throw a nice HMTL table in their RSS feed again)
I haven't yet seen if the CG-FeedReader will automatically update the medalcount because I haven't seen Yahoo update it yet. I will know tomorrow if it actually updates the feed. :P
You can see it working in my sidebar here:
You may have to expand the menu for it if it isn't expanded by default for you.
Nice work, I like it. I hadn't thought of checking medal counts through a RSS feed but now that you brought it up I'm surprised theres so little out there. It seems like a perfect use for syndication. Looks like you're just way ahead of the crowd!
Great Idea I have implemented on my page but I think the feed has changed today and a Graphic bar has been added for the medals. Not sure how to get rid of it as it is too wide for my sidebar.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks! I have it working at http://www.tylercranston.com
Sorry I didn't monitor this thread better...
To get rid of the graphic sidebar you need to make this change to the CSS... Unfortunately this means that the "G S B" text that used to be there is no longer - so the columns will have no identification.
(It's simple enough for the average viewer to be able to decipher though... or at least it's easier to leave it headerless than it is to write some PHP to inject a header into it)
.medalcount thead {
display: none;
Edit: Another thing you will want to do when you implement this is make the CGFeedRead update your feed more often. This is done be editing the file:
Edit line #50: Where it says
$XML_CACHE_TIME = 6 * 60 * 60; // hr * min/h * secs/m -- you can change this for faster updates of the caches.
(I think that was the default...)
I changed mine to update every 10 minutes by using this code:
If you ever want to manually reload the feed - simply delete the cache files in the cache_feedreed directory.
Thanks Appreciate it. This is terrific!

Posted on 11/10/2009 10:02:51 PM PST by Steelfish
Salt Lake OKs Gay Rights Ordinances Mormon church which opposes same-sex marriage backs laws
SALT LAKE CITY - With a historic endorsement from the Mormon church, the Salt Lake City Council unanimously passed a pair of ordinances making it illegal to discriminate against gays.
Tuesday's action was the first time the Utah-based church which has been steadfast in its opposition to gay marriage has publicly supported gay rights legislation.
"The church supports these ordinances because they are fair and reasonable and do not do violence to the institution of marriage," Michael Otterson, the director of public affairs for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saintssaid.
(Excerpt) Read more at msnbc.msn.com ...
Catholic bump!
I would hope Christians part more with Mormons than on this issue.
Read Romans — Chapter 1
and then reference it back to the book of Leviticus.
Right there in the Bible!
** do not do violence to the institution of marriage," Michael Otterson, the director of public affairs for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saintssaid.**
Yet actions such as this only add to the degradation of the family. This is sad.
WOW! Why do they have special privileges? Shouldn't it be illegal to discriminate against anyone no matter the color, religion, or anything else. Are white straight people the only people that you cannot be cited for discriminating against? Is Utah going liberal or only Salt Lake City?
Salt Lake City has been pretty liberal for a long time (as far as Utah goes). Utah county down south is much, much more conservative.
Thanks! I was shocked to see this!
You and me both!
Pretty sad when Utah gives in to the gay agenda.
How weak are the Mormons becoming? They give in to the gay lobby. For what?
What part about Jesus being the ONLY BEGOTTEN Son DON'T you understand?
Mormonism is nothing more than a cheap cobbled over redo of freemasonry.
Google it and check it out.
Joseph Smith was a Mason.
I agree.
The LDS has been battered mercilessly by the Gay Mafia since Prop 8 passed. There has been a documentary on gay Mormons, the whole "kiss in" fiasco. Under pressure, some are strong, some knuckle under.
I didn't realize the slopes of the Wasatch were all that slippery.
Sorry to see them go in the incrementalist direction.
Pretty soon they will be 99.9% of the way to approving gay marriage and then the remaining tenth of a percent will be merely a technicality.
Wow. Good thing they aren't going after something serious, like sin. Then they would really fold.
I read this as Mormons being more forgiving neighbors than Catholics. AND Mormons taking my kind of Libertarian stand in defense of the word "Marriage".
They [the Mormons} won't Force their Definitions on Gays, Nor will they let Gays corrupt their Definitions. Their respect for Individuality impresses Me.
Me? I was raised Unitarian [B4 the merger with the Universalists]... I'm happier having a Mormon missionary appear at my door than a Jehovah's Witness.
Catholics should refrain from lecturing Mormons. They accepted former gay men as priests to meet their shortage of priests. Then they wonder why they have alter boy molestation problems which was kept under the rug until the problem got too large to hide. The Catholic church lost alot of members from that scandal and damn lucky they were not sued out of existance by the victims.
Homosexuality is a vice. The Mormons just let the homosexuals redefine their own crimes/abominations as "not a vice", and the Mormons are allowing themselves to be compelled by law to go along with the homosexuals. The Mormons are letting a tiny homosexual cabal with a track record of dishonesty, blackmail, and terror tactics redefine society. The worst people in society are making new rules for the best.
What part of that do you not understand? Homosexual practices are malum in se as well as malum prohibitum abominatum. When did you walk away from the truth as a basis for transacting society's business?
Your argumentum ex "so's your old man" is not an argument, it's an ad hominem. Catholics can criticize Mormons all day over anything they please. So can I, and I just did.
Giving gays a chance and then getting fooled by them, is now a disqualification for anyone who might want to say to the Mormons, "Hey, those guys will fool you -- better not believe them"?
Listen to yourself.
**Good thing they arent going after something serious, like sin. **
What do you think same-sex marriage is?
As I said above read the first Chapter of Romans and what St. Paul says about their deviant life style......then reference it back to Leviticus. (Don't remember the exact chapter there.) But what Paul has based his beliefs on — even though is is talking to Jewish converts and Gentile converts to Christianity in Romans.
If one teacher is convicted of sexually molesting a student does that indict the entire faculty of all schools?
You can't be so general in condemning ALL Catholics. Some priests made mistakes, yes, but the seminaries and newly ordained priests are very orthodox.
God brings adversity around to success in the case you are trying to cite.
I sincerely hope that happens in the case of Mormons also.
While the country goes to godless amoral Socialism, We conservatives/christians are bickering and nit-picking. We have to put our differences aside people and unify for the sake of our great land.
at this point, I'm almost ready to say to heck with marriage....the elites don't want us married....they want a loosely knit society where anything goes....they want men not to be attached to a family...
a society that is not connected is a society easily manipulated and controlled....
I don't believe in gay marriage, and if gays want to claim discrimination, I'll just say then pass a law that any two adults can insist they are "together" without marriage...two men..two women...a man and a woman.....any two....
why should gays be the only ones to avoid the marriage penalty tax?
You believe that the Church supporting ordinances against housing and employment discrimination are somehow a weakening of their position?
The Church is interested in protecting the sanctity of marriage, not in promoting discrimination. I don't see a problem with that.
Joseph Smith was a Juggler. Look it up.
"The measures make it illegal to discriminate against gays in housing and employment. Salt Lake the state's first city to to approve such laws."
I see no logical reason to discriminate against gays based on housing and employment. If a couple of guys want to rent my rental property, I'm happy to rent it to them. If a couple of gay guys want to buy the house next door, I have no problem with that either. If the gay guy is the best salesman I can find, I'll jump at the chance to hire him. There is just no reason to discriminate in these areas.
In no way does that mean that I agree with their choice to engage in homosexual activities. I would also rent to a straight couple who are shacking up rather than getting married as long as I think they can pay the bill. I will hire a guy who has chosen not to marry his girlfriend. However, in like fashion, I will not agree with his choice to live in sin.
In both cases, I would use these things as example for my children of activities in which they should not engage when they are mature enough to understand such things. Both situations are sins by their participants.
Lastly I still oppose the law because it is unnecessary. People who discriminate in these areas on this basis fools. They will have inferior employees and may get a worse offer on the property they are selling if they discriminate. Let capitalism work.
I am a proud Mormon who stands against the homosexual agenda, but it is a stretch to show how this specific item negatively impacts society outside of the fact that it weakens the system of capitalism.
For transparency reasons, I am surprised by the hostility towards Mormons on this site. I have rarely encountered such negativity. Certainly there are many differences between the beliefs of Mormons and other Christians but I consider other denominations brothers and allies.
Those of us who consider ourselves conservative need to stick together politically even when we do not see eye to eye on religious matters. Shoot, I would welcome most Muslims to a conservative coalition if they had a bit of a reformation and stopped the nut jobs that wanted to kill the rest of us.
Every human born has a God-given right to discriminate against open homosexuality in their personal and business lives, and that goes for housing and employment. There is no such thing as being "openly" black, or Asian, or white, or disabled; there is no comparison. Whether or not a person is homosexual is between that person, his/her conscience, and God. I have ZERO WAY OF KNOWING if a person is homosexual unless they intend for me to know -- and that is not the case with race, and may or may not be the case with disability.
If people or a church or a landlord or a business wants to embrace and encourage open homosexualty and discriminate in favor of it, that's their God-given right as well, though I believe it is a poor choice, and I KNOW that God doesn't work collectively, he works individually, so those who take that right to go against God's word, will answer to God -- not to me or the government -- for it.
A Godly church should OPPOSE ordinances that prohibit people from discriminating against open homosexuality in their midst.
*They give in to the gay lobby. For what?*
To make a path for Romney, that's what.
Joseph Smith was a Mason.
They got hammered for supporting Prop 8 in California. Perhaps they are trying to make amends for that or are falling into the age old trap of wanting to be liked.
Anyway you cut it, they are done. They caved. End of story.
>>>For transparency reasons, I am surprised by the hostility towards Mormons on this site. I have rarely encountered such negativity
Collateral damage. Any mud a certain clique here can splatter against the wall hoping it sticks on Romney, they throw. Somehow they seem to think this will make Ron Paul the next leader of the free world. Nobody said they were logical.
It's just going to get worse as the bozo attacks on Romney rev up. They seem to be posting new threads daily now. On the other hand I was really getting bored with the breathless and generally pointless "exposes" on Megan McCain.
>>>Joseph Smith was a Mason.
"And so also were most of the early presidents of the U.S."
And so is Jackie, and so was James, and so are jars.
Before you complain about the mote in your brother's eye, remove the plank that is in your eye.
I am an evangelical Protestant. I do not agree with the LDS theologically, but I do agree with you that some main stream religious members have anti Mormon sentiments (unfortunately it also includes members in my denomination). Like I said, I do not agree with Mormons on theological matters, but as everyday citizens, Mormons (rarely drink, smoke or swear, strong family values and best preparers for emergencies) are an asset. This accusation that Mormons knuckle to world demands by Catholics is extremely hypocritical. The Catholic Church has a long history of functioning in a worldly manner. Look at all the Catholic politicians that are given a pass on their personal behavior (alcoholism, convenient divorces, infidelity, pro abortion, etc, etc) by the Church leadership. I have not even started with their acceptance of former gay men in the seminary for priethood (gee what happen to the teachings of Ephesians and 1st Timothy on qualifications for a priest) to meet their shortfall of priests and the church's position on illegal immigration (which contradicts their existing catechism on Catholic immigrants should obey the laws of their host nations). Bottom line is before any denomination starts to go after another denomination, they better make sure that they themselves are squared away.
Yes. (But it's still 50% Lds)
Except that if we take what you just said as some "Thou Shalt" absolute, then no Catholic would ever be able to speak out against an educator accused of sexual abuse. (We can just hear you respond to some Catholic poster on that thread, lecturing them that Catholics should refrain from lecturing educators.)
Or you could point to pro-abortion Catholic politicians like Teddy & John Kerry & Pelosi & many others, and say, Catholics should refrain from lecturing anybody on abortion given all their "exceptions."
Comments like yours are simply designed to encourage folks to "stuff" their free expression.
Jesus, who made this statement, clearly saw that plank. Are we to assume either that you have a clear view of poster-strangers' "planks" -- and/or that you or your church ties are all "beam-free?"
I mean, David in the Psalms complains about people laying traps for him all the time. Some of the seemingly judgmental imprecatory psalms are attributed to him. Yet if we read Ps. 51, we see a remorseful adulterer/manslaughter asking for repentance. Would you say that David's track record on sexuality, etc was such that he was off-base to be putting down his enemies the way he did in Psalms?
Jesus gave a great compliment to the outward "assets" of legalistic Pharisees when he said that unless your righteousness exceeded that of the Pharisees & the teachers of the law, "you will certainly NOT enter the kingdom of heaven." (Matt. 5:20). Yet, later, in Matthew 23, Jesus said:
25"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. 26Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean. 27"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean. 28In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.
Are you saying Jesus' emphasis is to only look upon the outward assets? If so, the Pharisees & the teachers of the law passed your standards w/flying colors and Jesus was mistaken to "diss" them.
Mormons (rarely drink, smoke or swear,...
(Well, so far that describes my pets, too)
...strong family values...
(like eternal polygamy, or the belief expressed by Lds apostle Bruce McConkie in his book carried in most Mormon stores that the Mormon jesus would re-institute earthly polygamy upon his return?)
...and best preparers for emergencies) are an asset.
(Well, kudos to that, but this also describes a decent number of secular govt folks who also take their 10% from folks)
Bottom line, hey, if you're auditioning for godhood, which temple Mormons are, you better be on your best outward behavior.
So forcing a retailer to say, higher an open cross-dresser, is part of your "anti-discrimination" campaign?
Good point. Often missed. The homosexual community used to argue that folks should stay out of their bedroom. It's their "privacy." (For the past 15 years or so, they've constantly been bringing their bedroom into the workplace & everywhere else)
The mormons just love that deviant sex stuff....
They have it in their doctrines ...
Acoording to D&C 132 a guy cant leave Earth without it...
By giving homosexually a pass, the mormons think they can phase back in their beloved "first principal" of wholesale adultery and wife swapping called polygamy...

Both are considered cults by Christians.
They merely reflect the official views of your church in regards to Mormonism, which church do you belong to?
"One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clintons dont ask, dont tell, dont pursue military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nations military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share."

You are changing the subject, no one cares about your personal views, they care about you forcing them to comply with your personal views in their lives too.
Shoot, when Catholics had a problem with pedophiles, I defended the church as a whole even when many Catholics would not. When people attack southern baptists for being so vocal I defend them as well.
As far as Romney goes, he will only get my vote if he is the Republican nominee. Palin for president. I already have the bumper sticker.

Does anyone have a good solution for managing batteries when they are not in the camera? I now have eight batteries for a pair of D800s, each one numbered and dated with the date they went into service. I try to use them in numerical order just so they all get used regularly. However, they are all rattling around in some pocket in my camera bag. I found some small 9.5 ounce Glad plastic containers at the grocery store which hold four batteries, but it doesn't fit a shoulder bag very well. I'm thinking that some sort of sleeve would be ideal, but haven't found anything like that yet. Any suggestions?

I keep mine numbered so that I can easily rotate them for even usage. When not in the camera, the extra batteries are sitting on a shelf with my other photo equipment. My bag only contains one extra battery at the most.---------+---------+---------+---------+---------+Joseph KSeattle, WA, USAD700, D200, D70S, 24-70mm f/2.8, VR 70-200mm f/2.8 II, 50mm f/1.4 D, 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 VR, 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 DX

Same with me. One battery in the camera, an extra in the bag — and I've yet to have to use it on a shoot. I have a third in my V1. I do casually rotate them.Jon KandelA New York City Nikonian and Team MemberPlease visit my website and critique the images!

Same as Jon. One in the camera, one in the bag. I'll buy new ones when the time comes. Like Jon I've never needed to switch batteries during a shoot. I'm careful to keep them topped off. That helps to extend the life of Li-Ion batteries, and I always want the ability to open the shutter to blow crud off of the sensor.

I don't feel the need for a plan to rotate batteries. The camera can tell you not only the charge status of a battery, but its condition as well. If a battery starts to show deterioration, I will replace it. I have employed two D700 bodies and a total of six batteries for more than four years and none of them have failed nor are any in need of being replaced even now.Based on my experience with the D700 cameras, I will probably limit my battery "herd" for my two D800 bodies, to a total of four. Six was obviously overkill for the pair of D700 cameras. (I want to use the plural of D700 as D700s, but then I am often asked where I got that model!) If I am travelling more than overnight, I take a charger with me, just in case. They are small and light.

I have just two batteries for my D800 which I alternate. I do not believe that it makes much sense to keep multiple spare batteries. The capacity and the ability to hold a charge of Li ion batteries decrease with time, regardless whether they are being used or not. The service life of Li batteries is severely reduced, if they are kept at high temperatures. You get the best longevity, if you keep your spare batteries at about 0 degree C with a charge of about 40%. With these conditions, the battery retains close to 100% capacity for one year. During use, complete discharge should be avoided, since this shortens the life time of the battery.I have used two batteries with my D700 for five years, and they are still usable although the capacity is somewhat reduced. I also once bought a non-Nikon battery which burst into flames upon charging...

Albrecht - The battery burst into flames while charging it? That's the reason I use nothing by Nikon batteries. In fact, I got a free battery for my second D800 when I bought it. I dropped it in the trash without even opening it. I would have returned it for no refund, but I'd have had to pay the postage and I already spring for a 2 yard dumpster that is emptied monthly in my rural environment. I'll keep an eye on the dumpster until they empty it Wednesday!

Alan - Li ion batteries employ an organic electrolyte which is inherently flammable. Just remember the problems the "Dream Liner" has had with Li batteries. Also, I believe that Nikon was forced to re-design their batteries for the D800 because of safety concerns.
#6. "RE: D800 Battery Management" | In response to Reply # 0
I'm also with Jon on this one. I have never had more than a pair of batteries with any camera. When I acquire a grip, which I have for all but one, I top the grip battery off prior to shooting. At the time that the body battery depletes to 50%, I charge both and swap their positions.One battery lasts me so long that it wasn't until I bought a grip, after the camera was 90 days old, that I saw the one battery was showing as age 3. If it doesn't start reading as new after a few full discharge/recharge cycles, it will be replaced.

Replacement Nikon EN-EL15 Lithium-ion Batteries are supplied with a plastic battery terminal cover that should be saved and used when storing spares in the camera bag to prevent damage to the terminal contacts or accidental discharge. Good luck.

I've never even seen one in the flesh. But if I had, and was not taking long sequences of time lapse, I would never bother with another cord hanging from the camera. I have 4 batteries now, 1 each in both of my main bodies and 1 each in both grips and have never come close to running out of power for an event. I have a few more but those are for the camera that I do not keep in the bag, a gripped D90. So, for me, I have no battery management problem since they are all in cameras and I simply charge them in the pre-event shooting routine of cleaning, topping up batteries(need lots for the flashes), formatting cards setting shooting banks for most expected scenes etc. While doing that, the batteries are fully charged by the time I finish the housekeeping of the bag and lenses.StanSt Petersburg Russia

I've gone over to EN-EL18 batteries for my D800e the logic being that I already have two of them for my D4 (one came free) so I purchased one more along with a BL-5 Battery chamber cover. I now have a battery that never seems to exhaust no matter what I throw at it. But I have a spare for whichever camera needs a replacement first.Of course if you don't already have a D4 then it can be expensive to go down the route of using EN-EL18's as the MH-26 charger alone is about £300.

Then a transformer and cord plugs into this. It works well for me, i have it mounted on a tilt head for light box work.

It is not unusual for me to use two or more batteries at an Event.It is also not unusual for me to take over 5,000 pictures.At the recent Spirit West coast I used 4+ part of one while VideoGraphing with my D800e.I never really thought about marking my batteries.That is a good idea.

Kevin Freeman installed my wood kitchen floor and never finished it. He was supposed to come back and install a new saddle that was safe. The first one he purchased was raised on the kitchen side, so you had to be careful when you walked on it. Not safe! I gave him $39 per saddle thinking it was going to be flush up against the wood floor with no overhang. In fact, in all the houses I've been in I've never seen anyone use this type of saddle. The saddle he put down cracked 2x timess when he was there installing the floor!
His helpers ran out of finish nails, so I had to run out and buy them because he was out on an estimate using his helper's truck. So, they didn't have a vehicle to get to the store.
Kevin did not finish the bottom of my door. He cut the bottom because the door wouldn't shut due to the floor being installed. He said he was going to come back and cut the door again, so he could put the Slide-On Vinyl Door Bottom on, but he never showed up again.
He had three wood trim pieces to put up on the bottom of the cabinets and two white trim pieces to put on the floor which he never finished. On three occasions, he said he was going to come by and never showed up. He would make you wait all day for him without even a phone call! Very unprofessional! Stay away from this contractor!

Perhaps it isn't the fault of the contractor with over 20 years experience, it could be YOU.

Tet3 CXXC domain and dioxygenase activity cooperatively regulate key genes for Xenopus eye and neural development.
Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Hypertension, Departments of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.
Ten-Eleven Translocation (Tet) family of dioxygenases dynamically regulates DNA methylation and has been implicated in cell lineage differentiation and oncogenesis. Yet their functions and mechanisms of action in gene regulation and embryonic development are largely unknown. Here, we report that Xenopus Tet3 plays an essential role in early eye and neural development by directly regulating a set of key developmental genes. Tet3 is an active 5mC hydroxylase regulating the 5mC/5hmC status at target gene promoters. Biochemical and structural studies further demonstrate that the Tet3 CXXC domain is critical for specific Tet3 targeting. Finally, we show that the enzymatic activity and CXXC domain are both crucial for Tet3's biological function. Together, these findings define Tet3 as a transcription regulator and reveal a molecular mechanism by which the 5mC hydroxylase and DNA binding activities of Tet3 cooperate to control target gene expression and embryonic development.

This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
I know it can play any Valve game ok. Portal 2 is best at mid settings. And I have 1.8 GB RAM.
Other than the Ys games, which look amazing, what games could basically any PC run?
I appreciate suggestions for Indie games, but I would like to know some good suggestions for "normal" games, no matter how old.
Wii U+Xbox One :)
NNID: JZimino
Since you mention Valve, I'd look into any Source engine game.
In particular, I'd look into Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines, E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy, Dark Messiah Might and Magic, and Zeno Clash. In that order.
(Also, you're not being very specific, so I could have easily made this list about 300x longer!)
Link us your Steam account so we can see what you already have, and what titles you have played the most. It'll help us pick out some genres that you might like and prevent us from listing games you already have.
i7-920 @ 3.6 // 770 GTX // 12 GB G.Skill Sniper Ram // PS3 // 360
FiiO e9+17 // AD700 + M50 // Deck Legend + 82 // DAS Ultimate S
Please note that this is a list of games that I've either found to be "good" or at least "initially good." I make no claims as to whether or not you, or anyone else, thinks that they are enjoyable or worth the cost.
Breath of Death VII
Cthulhu Saves the World
- These two are often bundled together and often on sale for $0.99
Torchlight 2
- Torchlight runs $15 to TL2's $20, but it doesn't have multiplayer, longer load times on mods, and three classes to TL2's 4. On the other hand TL2 might push your system too hard.
Knights of Pen & Paper +1 Edition
- If you can't stand some of the tropes in RPGs which this game embodies you might not like it.
Titan Quest (Gold, though you'll probably only ever run the Immortal Throne executable)
- Depending on just how crappy your PC is this might push it too hard.
Defense Grid: The Awakening
Paper Sorcerer
Space Pirates & Zombies
Drox Operative
- Last I checked only the core game is available through Steam. You'd have to buy the expansion through the developer's site, and I don't know how that would interact with a Steam purchase of the original game.
- These games are in the "initially good" category.
Rogue Legacy
Sword of the Stars: The Pit
A Valley Without Wind
Valdis Story: Abyssal City
- "Metroid-vania" type game with a more "Japaese" graphics bent than many of the others out there.
- These seem to be generally considered good, but I haven't played them yet.
To the Moon
I imagine there are a few seemingly "low-impact" games (by modern standards, Titan Quest wasn't particularly low-impact on release IIRC) I'm forgetting or don't know about.
If you want a better, or at least larger, list it might help if we knew what your CPU and graphics card (or GPU if you're using onboard video) were. Of course given that you say you only have 1.8GB RAM, a rather improbable number to naturally occur given that it would require using at least 3 successively smaller sticks of RAM, it's reasonable to presume you're using onboard video.
Logic is the antithesis of faith, else why is it that faith defies logic while logic denies faith?

E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy,
while that game is good, it';s hard to get into. it's rough around the edges, has some bad translation, and has an ad saving system. I think it does save your XP regardless of whether or not it saves your progress though. it does have an exploit where you can get XP in co-op modes while alone. it also doesn't really have a level cap I think.
