Posted on 05/15/2012 4:17:12 PM PDT by not romney
Mitt Pulls A 'Weiner' When Bill Clinton wagged his finger at us saying: "I - did - not - have - sex - with - that -woman", we all knew he was lying. When Anthony 'that's-not-my-weiner' said: that's not my weiner, we all knew, that was his weiner. Now when Mitt Romney tells Fox News: I dont recall the incident myself, but Ive seen the reports and Im not going to argue with that, we all know he's a lying weiner. M-i-i-i-i-t, look at me, look at me -- you're telling me you don't recall, one way or the other, whether you were involved with a group of your buddies who held down a weaker classmate and cut off his hair during your senior year? Now Mitt knows he knows and he knows we know. (cont)http://teapartyorg.ning.com/profiles/blogs/mitt-pulls-a-weiner

But, the GOPe didn't choose any of those, they chose a gun-grabbing, abortion-supporting worthless POS. Embrace him! Be happy with your choice!
I love my country more than a "Party".
I'm a registered independent and have always been.
God gave me a brain. Enough to know that there will be no GOP if BO gets in again. We'll be lucky if we have a country.
He can pop in a few justices and "Pro-Life" is gone. At both ends of life. I can't live with that.
The President we have now has ignored congress and ruled.
We have a chance with anyone else and a conservative congress.
I don't care if the kid is gay or not and according to the story that wasn't an issue at the time as the kid had not "come out" at that time, or if ever as you say. It sounded like a typical bullying case of a kid who might have been called gay because he was smaller or wimpier or something. Who would talk about that if it had happened to you? Usually people don't go around bragging about how they got their butt kicked.
>>But, the GOPe didn't choose any of those,<<
Like I care. I'm a registered Independent.
The article is stoopit.
While I can't stand Mitt I have to agree with his premise:
"Do you anything substantive you'd like to discuss?"
That shouldn't stop you from embracing the stupid lug. Be proud when you step in to that voting booth! You're casting a vote for a man who is the polar opposite of Ronald Reagan - the Etch-A-Sketch man who hates conservatives and will do and say anything, would lie to a dying child if it meant it would win him the Presidency, something his Dad was unable to do, BTW. It's your choice - enough of this "I'll hold my nose" excuse - be proud!
The people, especially those crazy Constitution loving Teabaggers, deserve to be punished for another four years so they will understand the error of their ways and repent by Nominating Ron Paul next time around.
Putting another three "wise" gender neutral Liberals on the Supreme Court will have no effect on the Nation. Don't believe the hype. We all know that Romney would pick worse Judges that Pharaoh Obama.
Time to get with the program. Obama 2012, how bad can it get, really?
>>It sounded like a typical bullying case of a kid who might have been called gay because he was smaller or wimpier or something<<
Let me clue you in to a simple fact. I'm the same age as Romney.
1. NO ONE thought anyone was "gay". We didn't even use the word. Everyone said "Homo". It was hidden if you were homosexual, that was High School in the 70's afterall.
2. He didn't get his hair cut (oh the horror) because he was homosexual, he got it cut because he was acting like a hippy at a Prep school.
3. People are laughing at this because we all did stupid things in our lives. It's backfired because it makes MR look human.
>>That shouldn't stop you from embracing the stupid lug.<<
Why? I don't really care about him.
I care about saving my country from Obama.
It's DARTH Vader, but you already know that. LOL
>>Time to get with the program. Obama 2012, how bad can it get, really? <<
You pegged it.
Good luck with that. Electing Myth will make things worse, but in the deep recesses of your mind, you probably already know that. All that matters is getting rid of Obama, I get it. Your mind is made up so I won't bother confusing you with the facts. Make sure you smile when you cast your vote for the end of our country!
We can never underestimate the power of manipulated fear.
What has happened to American's fighting spirit, even when at all costs???? It is astounding to me to see what use to be a good people now cower and go willingly to the train station.
To me, neither Obama nor Romney is God, and for certain God is not Romney nor Obama. If we would but do our small part and gird up, God would do his great part, but we aren't going to do that.
We're going to rely on Romneybama to "save us" and in return for such cowardice, receive very little of the work of God, I expect.
We have "earned this".
>> The article is stoopit.
Do you anything substantive youd like to discuss? <<<<<
You mean like the point of the article which you miss by a mile? It really wasn't about the juvenile event itself you know? Er.....well, given your wildly off point post, maybe you didn't know that.
Well said. We are screwed no matter which POS gets elected - unless a miracle occurs, God favors us, and someone other than Obama or Romney get in. Obama wins, the country dies in a 100 mph collision; Romney wins, the country dies in an 80 mph collision. It's all a matter of degree.
Great post. Mittens will destroy conservatism in the GOP. Once his brand of mandate loving, socialist buddies get into all of the RNC leadership positions it's over.
I'll never support that gun grabbing, pro-abortion, rudderless POS. For the first time, I'll probably be leaving the top spot blank. It's too bad the GOP has chosen so poorly. Lots of conservatives in OH are refusing to pull the trigger for ORommney.
>>Make sure you smile when you cast your vote<<
Trust me, I won't be smiling. I detest the guy.
But having the Muslim Brotherhood in the Department of Homeland Security was the last straw for me.
I have kids. I got gutted for one of them. I'm not going to let them get the Beslin treatment as Obama kisses the Jihadis.
Troll away, noob! Best MDS flypaper ever...
Thank you, 100.
You must be unafraid too, I take it? The nation is itching for a show down. But for the GOPE we would never be in this fine fix, so I'm itching for a show down of equal proportion with them.
This is the only year to do it, because this is the year that counts, so it's chess. The two parties have now melled together, and are running the same guy!
Some, not all, but some professed Christians are the only ones I know who are unafraid of four more years of Obama, if that is what it takes to explode the socialists in the GOP, take back our party and restore our Constitution. It's a down ticket year for me. I've done Nixon, Dole, Bush 41, Bush 43, McCain, and no more. There is a limit to these cram downs.
Freedom is just never going to be free. This is the year.
Thanks for engaging the battle. Ohio, as always, has a chance to rock this vote. I know who my ROCK is.
God be with Ohio, and you and yours, me and mine.
Well dang. Cuz I like you and trust you being a fellow OKIE and all I'll go back and actually read the article.
But, don't expect me read everything. I use Garanimals to match my clothes.
I'll get back to you....
Alright, I agree with your assesment and the author's which perfectly explains this idiot election:
"You might have asked yourself, how did we get here, how did we allow for a presidential election between two lightweights with the main issues being; dogs on cars, dogs with ketchup, stay-at-home-moms, car elevators, golf, bullies, blouses, druggies, dresses? I've asked myself that question. I wish I had the answer."
Youve had 15 posts in your long and extensive history here in FR.
i take from your tone that 15 posts is not good. i heard somewhere that after so many posts you get a free slurpee. can someone please let me know how many more posts i need for the free slurpee.
do they have diet coke slurpees?
No, I don't agree. You are pretty full of yourself, though you don't know when to capitalize, as this brief out-take shows. You need to get hold of yourself (in the emotional sense). You have quite a way to go before someone other than yourself takes you seriously.
when your right your right. i didn't capitalize where i should have in that last reply, sorry. if you will please send it back to me i'll make the necessary corrections and re-post it. thanks for looking out for me.
SOONER, too? That is splendid news! I forgive you for all your wobbles for Romney forever, almost.
Heck, we probably either dated or are related, given the times and the large families! LOL!
Since your family now, I confess, I only read it after I saw all the hell the Romney rooters were given the poster, and then discovered I not only got it, I agreed with it. HA! XOXO, Rita!
Freeperguards, ;)
So you are telling us you are a 10 and we should also think you are a 10? Did your mama ever tell you it is not nice to brag about you yourself?
my mama used to whoop my butt nine ways to sunday when i'd brag about myself. but what are you gonna do? some kids just never learn.
I like your attitude, since I've had more than my fill from the Romney booster side. Hang right in there. We can be spelling freaks and courteous Carl's some other time, some other election, but this is cut to the chase time, Romney is not "it", and we're definitely running out of time. :)
Hulbert, OK.
As fer that rat bastuhd, Romney, I cannot stand and won't waiver.
He'll have to prove himself as President. I don't have high hopes as his record is demonstrably thin on Republican or Conservative issues.
I appreciate your efforts on my behalf, but Axelrod thinks this might not be helping, since Ayers wrote that bit about me pushing around the black girl in 8th grade. Plouffe will get back to you about another attack story against my opponent, who Im losing to right now, in the days ahead. So keep up the good effort. All the lefties down at the DNC appreciate it also.
Keep Mitt out of DC
Barack Hussein Obama
I really appreciate your support in this matter. Very few people have been willing to give me the credit I deserve. When I first contacted the Obama campaign about the free haircut incident they just laughed at me, but I just wouldn't give up. I called them 5 times a day for 3 wks. straight. Finally Axelrod took my call and well the rest is history. I told them that they should use this story to portray Romney as a deviant as far back as h.s. and then they could show that at Bain he was still a real big meany. They were so appreciative that I made them aware of all this that Axelrod himself said he would work it out so I get a ride on Airforce One. I'll send you the pictures. Thanks again for letting others know just how instrumental I was in this entire episode.
Go find a daytime job. Being witty isn't your strong point.
OK, I see. I came to your post last night when I was shutting down the laptop because of storms, and other things on my mind. The "not romney - Since Feb 22,2012" just didn't compute.
Are you sure we're dealing with community college level here?
>>Are you sure were dealing with community college level here?<<
>>take from your tone that 15 posts is not good. i heard somewhere that after so many posts you get a free slurpee. can someone please let me know how many more posts i need for the free slurpee.

I help more intelligent kids across the street in the morning.....You're right.
A troll, and not a very clever one for that. Thinks his/her wit will overpower us, but instead comes across somewhat juvenile. Should have stayed away from the snarky attitude. It only impressed an image that's hard to shake.
Too lazy to capitalize words properly, which adds to the "texting-while-driving" impression: Yes, others here don't capitalize at times, because they're on a phone and want to make a short comment; that's understandable. But in those cases, they also use contractions and acronyms. Note the absence here. In this case, it just added to the adolescent image.
Twitter would be more suitable for this person than a forum. Short blasts of inane remarks are more suitable with such sloppy attentiveness.
This was not the heavy artillery from the Obama campaign, this was a mere spitwad. This was a small probe to see how Romney would react. How did he do? he crashed and burned. Of the three available choices; 1. strongly deny it ever happened, 2. admit it happened and show remorse, 3. say I don't remeber, he chose the worst one possible, 3, lie then dance. 1 or 2 and it's a two news-cycle story. 3 reinforces his image as a flip flopper and allows the story to linger throughout the campaign. He just doesn't have the instincts of a skilled politician.
Was this a trivial hit piece by Jason Horowitz of the Washington Post, yes. So are there going to be twenty more just like it between now and Nov?, yes. Can Romney complain that his opponent is not playing fair, without eveyone rolling on the ground in laughter, no. This was a total meaningless story expect for one thing, how Romney handled it. Obama's boys are laughing.
Question, who wins the battle of; you put a dog on the roof, well you ate a dog, well you were a bully, well you did drugs, answer - Obama. Dem voters are the quintessential brain-dead-voter. 'Hope and change' was all it took four years ago. Obama is intentionally trying to draw Romney into a fight about inanities because he can't run on his record.
So why is Romney obliging Obama by jumping into the gutter with him. Simple, Romney doesn't want to run on his record either. Romneycare, flip flops on gay marriage, guns, abortion, immigration, climate change among others. I ask again, how did we allow this to happen?
We didn't allow it to happen, friend. You, I and others like us fought tooth and nail to prevent it from happening, but the sad fact of life is that establishment RINOs and their Democrat counterparts have had decades to stack the deck in their favor.
The entire primary system is set up in ways that favor their chosen candidates. The fundraising and logistics support controlled by the party apparatus always goes to their favorites.
The Georgetown Cocktail Party set, Republican and Democrat alike, would much rather lose an election than lose the behind-the-scenes control they have carved out over the last 60 years or more.
But try not to be too discouraged. The Tea Party rocked them back on their heels in the last election and we've already taken two major RINO scalps in this cycle. If we can force Romney to take Sarah or West as a running mate, we'll be able to keep him honest.
Now, admittedly, that is not as good as having a genuine Conservative at the top of the ticket, but it is a whole lot better than nothing. And the point I made in my post above remains germane.
The reality is, we must defeat Obama.
I'd sell my soul to the Devil and condemn myself to Hell for time and all eternity if I could be sure that in doing so I would permanently remove that abomination from office. The stakes are that high. Not just for me, my family and my nation, but for the entire Human race.
Faced with that reality, I'll get behind Romney this election. I'll do what I can to get him elected, even if I can't stand him personally.
The alternative is simply unthinkable.
This is the only year to do it, because this is the year that counts.
Rita's comment last night was spot on. The only time it matters is when something is on the line. Same thing with the budget battles. They bicker for yrs. but nothing matters until the two sides are starring each other in face seeing who's going to blink first. The GOP is playing us for fools again, saying I dare you. Well this time there are enough of us to call their bluff.
Obama up by 7 in new Fox poll. But I'm sure Obama's dirty trick had nothing to do with it. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/05/16/fox-news-poll-obama-pulls-ahead-romney-as-presidential-race-heats-up/
To which dirty trick are you referring? I've been in and out of the attic, and don't know what's up.
However, FAUX polling is just that, faux. :)
Well, this twit is full bore, trying to recoup a semblance of interest. I'll pass. Have a great evening.
Hon, have at your circular firing squad.
I'm bored with it. You can call me back to your vanity to your hearts content however, understand that I have been blessed with "Killfile" and I'm not going to see your posts anyway.
You're WAY too full of yourself for me to waste my typing time.
>>Well, this twit is full bore, trying to recoup a semblance of interest. Ill pass. Have a great evening.<<
Ooooo, great minds think alike.
Have a good one!

You might think of surveys as a hassle, but it turns out they can be very useful when brining new businesses to the area.
The Zanesville-Muskingum County Chamber of Commerce is kicking off it's annual wage and benefits survey in less than a week. The "quick and easy" online survey is filled out by Muskingum County business employers and employees and it's used to collect valuable information for prospective and local businesses.
"This is really valuable information for us to have, it gives us an economic development tool because this is commonly requested information from companies that are looking at locating here and it's also really helpful information for employers that are already here," said ZMCCC President Tom Poorman. "It helps them prepare their budgets, it helps them make sure that their wages and benefits are in line with the marketplace."
Poorman said the survey is also an important tool that's used to bring new companies to expand here in Ohio. Companies like Avon, Halliburton, Dollar General and Fanatics have all requested information found in the survey.
"They need to know what's the cost of doing business in this community before they make a decision if they want to come there.They want to know typically what are the pay rates, what are the benefit levels. They want to know the cost of electricity, the cost of land, the cost of building. They want to know all those sorts of issues so that they can do the arithmetic and find out, 'how does this community compare to another one?'"
The number of employees and employers who participate varies. The survey is conducted in partnership with the Port Authority, the local Human Resource Management Association and JK Evans and Associates.

I noticed monthly charges from intelius going back to 2011 in the amount of $19.95. I thought it was for my daughter's education as she was attending school in WA state. She is out of school and the charges continued so I called. They said I did a search for a person I have never heard of.

MGMT Preparing To Release New Aphex Twin-Inspired Album This June
Written by Mike Hohnen on 31st January, 2013
In a recent chat with Rolling Stone, MGMT have revealed their plans to follow up on 2010's very odd and poorly received Congratulations. Though they kept the deets on the new release close to their chest, they did reveal a few gems.
Speaking on behalf of the duo, Ben Goldwasser explained that the pair, who have kept a very low profile for most of 2012, have been hard at it, laying down tracks with Dave Fridmann at his Tarbox Road Studios in New York. Tracks bear names such as Mystery Disease and Alien Days, and as reported, we can expect a cover of Introspection by the 60's garage band Faine Jade.
As one point of difference from Congratulations, the band recorded the tracks on their own, rather than with a full band, and described the sessions as a mix of free-form jams and electronic productions that draw many parallels to Aphex Twins, which the pair have apparently been listening to a lot lately.
Goldwasser tells Rolling Stone that the band are "not trying to make music that everyone understands the first time they hear it… There's no illusion on [Columbia Records'] part that we're going to turn into a Top 40 band."
The release has been slated for June. Stand by for more details.

Hai guys,
I'm trying to do a custom theme based on Kubrick and I'm having a little trouble with multiple background images.
I've got a 300px tall background gradient that I want across the very top stretching 100%, and the header laying across it (so I'm basically extending the gradient in my headerimg to fill the page). I already have a background image serving as my page border. I've tried putting the gradient in a div, which worked persay, only it pushed the header and everything else below it, instead of lying under it. Then I tried putting it as the body bg, and putting my other background as the #page bg. But #page bg doesn't seem to be centering, even with a variable telling it to do so (Is there a reason for that?)
I haven't designed anything in years so I'm a bit rusty :( Thanks for reading ~

"We've asked for the grants for the infrastructure, and that's what will be happening first," said Florey. "Infrastructure, of course, being water, sewer, roads and an entrance way."

SUBMITTED: Saturday, July 12, 2014POSTED: Saturday, July 12, 2014
Hi Stacy,
I'm really sorry to hear about what happened to you. I was a manager with CPI and there was no notice for us either - all over the country, region to region, we all got a text on the evening of April 4 telling us not to go to work in the morning and to be on a call in the morning; during which we were told that all studios were closed. We were told that CPI's strategy was going to be to place all of the fallout on the host stores in hopes that the host stores would invest in keeping the company running, so it doesn't surprise me that there was no refund offered - the strategy was literally to force Sears and Wal-Mart to deal with it all.
I know it's been over a year, but did you perhaps try checking with the Host Store Management? Even though we weren't supposed to head into the studios, most of us did to make arrangements with the host stores to offer customers the chance to pick up their portraits through the management office. If you haven't tried that, I suggest giving that a shot.
It was common practice in studios to first offer collections that included CDs with copyright releasees, and generally they were turned down by customers.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

By Chelsea Bissell, U.S. Army Garrison Grafenwoehr Public AffairsDecember 4, 2012
VILSECK, Germany -- In honor of Military Family Appreciation Month, Army Community Service sponsored an essay contest asking members of USAG Grafenwoehr to nominate, in 500 words or less, a local family for recognition. Essays highlighted families' volunteer work, outreach and philanthropy within the community. ACS chose one family to be recognized publicly each week in November.
Staff Sgt. Danny Seely, 574th Quartermaster Supply Company, 18th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, nominated the Feathers as an outstanding family because of their generosity and willingness to give to the Grafenwoehr community. Spc. Denton Feather, 574th Quartermaster Supply Company, 18th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, and his wife, Elizabeth, have three sons: Hayden, Brayden and Roman.
Military Family Appreciation Month Essay -- The Feather Family
I am nominating the Feather family to be recognized as a military family that goes above and beyond. The Feather family has been volunteering in the Grafenwoehr community since their arrival in 2010. Spc. Feather and his wife, Elizabeth, started by taking over as coaches for their son's soccer team. The team's original coach was unable to complete the season due to a work obligation.
After completing the soccer season in 2010, the Feathers went on to coach basketball in the winter and T-ball in the spring. Elizabeth continued to coach and give to the community while she was pregnant with the couple's third child. During the spring 2012 soccer season, Spc. Feather took over coaching a soccer team whose coach failed to report. He continued to coach the team for the rest of the season. Elizabeth is currently coaching their son's soccer team with the youngest child strapped to her back.
In 2011, the 574th QMSC started their FRG from scratch. Elizabeth volunteered to be the co-leader of the group. She planned and implemented the general meeting and attended training conferences to help her excel in her position. Spc. Feather volunteers with the FRG and assists with the various fundraisers and setup for the meetings. After the birth of their third child, Elizabeth had to step down as co-leader into the FRG secretary position so she could better fulfill her family's needs.
Elizabeth has also volunteered for various fundraisers, such as Equal Opportunity luncheons, selling chocolates and cards for Valentine's Day, gift wrapping at the PX for Christmas, and volunteered at battalion organizational days.
Spc. Feather and Elizabeth have volunteered over 685 hours to the Grafenwoehr community. They plan to continue to give back to the community and set an example for others to follow. Together, they have made Grafenwoehr a better place for military families.

Oh Mi-ley! Cyrus flaunts her assets in leather-clad costume
- From: news.com.au
- December 10, 2012
FOR ANYONE who thought Miley's pixie crop couldn't get any shorter, it turns out you were wrong.
But that's not even the worst part.
The 20-year-old flashed her cleavage in a raunchy leather costume while performing at the Christmas Creampies concert in Hollywood on Saturday night, prompting some critics to suggest she'd gone from "Disney to dominatrix" in just a few short years.
The former Disney star - who sang alongside Israeli dubstep producer and DJ Borgore - was spilling out of her cut-out leather midriff, while the one-size-too-small leather high-waisted pants gave the singer a noticeable muffin top.
A pair of thigh-high leopard print boots topped off the raunchy ensemble, which Miley danced sexily around in while performing with Borgore.
Cyrus is engaged to Aussie Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth and is reportedly insisting upon a pre-nuptial agreement ahead of their marriage.
While the pair are deeply in love, Miley is reportedly worth $130 million and wants to protect her assets, along with her five beloved pooches if the marriage falls apart.
Have your say

AbstractAfter more than a century since its birth, Quantum Theory still eludes our understanding. If asked to describe it, we have to resort to abstract and ad hoc principles about complex Hilbert spaces. How is it possible that a fundamental physical theory cannot be described using the ordinary language of Physics? Here we offer a contribution to the problem from the angle of Quantum Information, providing a short non-technical presentation of a recent derivation of Quantum Theory from information-theoretic principles. The broad picture emerging from the principles is that Quantum Theory is the only standard theory of information that is compatible with the purity and reversibility of physical processes.

Jodha Akbar are getting closer than ever in Amer. Jalal demands she stay with him every night and Jodha complies. Also the couple visit a temple together, where Jalal discovers the truth why he has acquired his current image as the cruel King.
Jalal and Jodha reach Amer, where they would be received in all galore since this is the first time they are visiting after their wedding. Though every one is worried about Pratap and Jalal living in the same place, they are assured they are here for the wedding and they would not attempt to ruin the wedding with a war.
Jalal though knows Pratap's hatred towards him is confident that he would not attempt anything behind his back. Also, Jalal is aware that there are men amongst his own who are trying to harm him.
Keeping this in mind, Jodha and her family would pray that there won't be any trouble and that the wedding would take place peacefully. Jodha then talks about her worry to Jalal, who assures her that he is here only to attend the wedding and not to wage a war. He promises he would not initiate a war, provided no one would insult him, his religion and his people and also, Jodha would stay with him every night during their stay in Amer. Jodha complies.
Jalal and Jodha's romance does not end here, Jodha would apply medicine to his wounds and they would visit a temple together too. When Jodha would be leaving to a temple, Jalal would be asked to go along with her. Jalal would say if Jodha can visit Ajmer, he can visit a mandir too.
Jodha Akbar would visit the temple, where Jodha finds it very moving that Jalal would respect her religion and leave his footwear and weapon outside. Jalal then discovers the truth behind the cruel image he has acquired among the Hindus.
Jalal discovers that the Hindu temples have been attacked and the jewellery has been stolen by his own soldiers.

Costner's reture lacks killer touch
Even international spies have trouble balancing work and family life, according to "3 Days to Kill," the latest lightweight action pic from writer-producer Luc Besson, here forming an unlikely (or perhaps unholy) trinity with director McG and star Kevin Costner. Surely the goal of the resulting mishmash was to reignite Costner's career like Liam Neeson after Besson's "Taken," but any possibility of sleeper-hit status has been fatally compromised by watered-down fight scenes and misguided family man dramatics.
The setup plays as if someone (presumably Besson, credited with the story and co-writing the script) decided to graft the central father-daughter relationship from "The Descendants" onto a Eurotrashy action framework. Superstar CIA field agent Ethan Renner (Costner) spends so much time on the job that he misses watching his daughter, Zooey (Hailee Steinfeld), blossom into a sophisticated teenager.
After he's diagnosed with a fatal illness, Ethan retires and resolves to spend more time with his family in Paris, offering to watch Zooey for a weekend while his estranged wife, Christine (Connie Nielsen), is away. But retirement isn't so easy for a man of Ethan's skills, and he's promptly recruited by the mysterious Vivi (Amber Heard), who needs his help in the hunt for a terrorist mastermind in exchange for experimental drugs that could give Ethan a second lease on life.
The conflict between the finesse Ethan demonstrates in his professional duties and the complete incompetence with which he approaches parenting is meant to be comedic, although the film doesn't have the light touch of similar spy-family action-laffers like "Mr and Mrs Smith," "True Lies" or McG's own "This Means War." Instead, "3 Days to Kill" proves surprisingly inept at trying to build the bond between Ethan and Zooey, even in the midst of moments as goofy as Dad consoling his daughter on a bad hair day, teaching her to dance or buying her a purple bicycle just because that was her favorite color as a kid. The sentimental approach almost works, thanks to the best efforts of Costner and the naturally spunky Steinfeld, who may have made a respectable pair given better material.
As it is, the lukewarm family dynamics sit awkwardly alongside equally underwhelming action sequences. Recent supporting turns in "Man of Steel" and "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit" aside, Costner isn't generally associated with the action genre — he's more of an epic-adventure guy — and the rote heroics he undertakes here won't do much to change that.
On multiple occasions, the audience simply witnesses the aftermath of Ethan's handiwork — bodies lying motionless on the floor. The notable exceptions arrive in a brief but slickly executed one-on-one skirmish in a grocery store's deli section (complete with resourceful use of the meat grinder and panini press) and a bracingly staged car chase in the middle of a Parisian neighborhood.
That chase makes a lovely pairing with McG's other standout sequence: a montage of Ethan riding the bike he bought for Zooey through the city streets and parking near the Eiffel Tower. It's a sweet divertissement for the typically boisterous director.
Unfortunately, in this case the restraint reads as overly safe. "3 Days to Kill" is quite literally bloodless — the fight sequences in "Taken" packed a far more potent punch even with the same PG-13 rating — which seems like a missed opportunity. The juxtaposition of Ethan's violent work and gentler paternal side might have added some desperately needed intrigue.

Sorry if this has already been covered in the forum.
I have a question about controlling the display of featured images and header images.
I'm using twentyeleven 3.5.1 (child)
I assume I need an ' if ' statement in my header to display the Featured Image in the 'Header Image' area ONLY if the Page or Post has a featured image populated. By default WordPress will hide all featured images from the header image container on pages and posts if the "remove header option" is activated in the theme options. It would be ideal to be able to have this switched off, but also have the option to display featured images on pages and posts that have them.
Any references would help a lot.. Thank You! :)

Skill Level Beginner
If we take the function example from the prior video and add one more step we arrive at the event listener. Event listeners are a way of handling and reacting to events, like mouse clicks and other things similar to that, and then calling functions when those events occur. Event listeners are actually a lot easier to understand then most people think. Imagine if you're back in grade school, and there is a classroom of ten people. When the bell rang at the end of the class, all ten students who were trained to understand what that meant, would get up and leave. Also, imagine if each of the ten of you, when walking through the door was told something by the teacher, and one of you was told to stand up when a certain word was pronounced.
In other words, one out of the ten students was trained to react to a single message, a single word being pronounced that would cause that student to stand up. During the class, when the teacher pronounced the word, one student out of the ten would stand. This demonstrates the power and effectiveness of event listeners. You have two situations here. One in which all ten students will react, which is the sounding of the bell that marks the end of class when all students would leave and another where a single student was told to listen for a particular message, and then a single student stood when a word was pronounced. All we have to do is set up the definition of the behavior, which is the function, that would be leaving the class, or standing up. Then we would define the event that triggered the action, so in our example, that would be the bell ringing, or the teacher saying the word, and then we simply associate the two. So, let's take a look at the structure of this file. Here on the stage in the upper right hand corner is a button. The instance name of this button is rect_btn, for rectangular button. Here in the listener, we see that instance name, and the add event listener being added to the button, which of course, I'll explain in just a moment. Now, let's look at the code. We have a function structure, which is exactly the same as the prior example, with one simple exception. We now have an argument to discuss. We skipped over that last time because our parenthesis were empty. So, let's review real quickly. We have the function keyword, defining the function, we have a unique name for this function, we have parenthesis, again let's skip the argument for just a moment. We have data type for return, we're not returning anything, so our data type is void, and then we have open and close brace with the instruction therein.
Now, we move on to the event listener. We already have the behavior we wish to trigger in the form of our function, now all we have to do is identify the event, and figure out how it calls that function. Over here on the right we have MouseEvent.CLICK. This is simply saying that the type of event we're working with is the mouse event, rather than event which would be for frame scripts, and we need to know which event associated with the mouse we're going to use and in this case, we're going to use the mouse click. Now we know what event we're seeking, we know what event we're trained to listen for, that is the click of the mouse. Now what do we do when we get that event? When we capture that event, when we know it occurred, what do we do? That is, we call the function by this name, onRectBtnClick. That is the function that we have defined previously. Now that we know the event that we are listening for, and we know what to do when we hear it, all we have to do is associate that pair to something that is trained to do the listening, and that is our button. So again, we define a function that is supposed to be triggered when the event occurs, we determine which event we're going to listen for, and what to do when we hear it, and then we simply say, who is supposed to be doing the listening? In this case, the button will listen for all of these things. So, when the button hears the mouse click, it will call for the function. Now, let's quickly talk about our argument. In simple terms, an argument is a kind of variable that only has life inside the function. It's purpose is to receive information from the function call, so the function can use that information to vary it's outcome. When determining argument names, such as this evt, short for event, we need to follow the same rules that we observed when naming variables. In this case, evt, or event will contain information about the event that triggered the function, so we also want to data type our argument and in this case, we're going to give it a data type of MouseEvent. And as you can see, that's what we're passing in, MouseEvent.CLICK. In practice, we'll be creating very simple event listeners in this course and therefore, we won't need to rely on this argument. However, in action script three essential training, we'll see that we can get information from the event such as which button was clicked on, or other related information. For now, we only need to know that the event must be there, and that as we discussed in the variable basics video, the data type should match the expected data to avoid errors and again, we're saying that we're going to pass in a mouse event and we are, MouseEvent.CLICK. So, let's try this ourselves, and let's tie in everything we've learned so far.
First, let's use a frame script to initialize our event listener. We'll choose the actions layer, frame 1, and we'll open up our Actions panel. Second, let's comment our code to make sure we know what we're doing later on. Let's put in a single line comment, or a double slash and we'll say we're "making navigation buttons". Next, let's create a variable that we can manipulate. So, we'll say we're declaring the variable with the "var" keyword, we'll give it a valid name, "nextSection," and we'll give it a data type of "String," and we'll give it a value of "home". Next, we'll set up a function to trigger when the event occurs.
So, let's say "function onHomeClicked," again an arbitrary name, let's call it onHomeClick, and then we'll say "(evt:MouseEvent)," and we're not going to return anything from the function, so we'll give it a data type of ":void," and we'll open up our braces here. Then, inside the braces let's just redefine the variable, "nextSection = "products:", so we can see that our function is working. In order to get some immediate results, let's use our "trace" action, and trace the value of that variable, so we can see the change. Finally, let's add our listener, and we called the button on stage "rect_btn," so we'll add to that, "_addEventListener," and we'll say "(MouseEvent.CLICK," that's the event we're looking for, and the function we want to call is "onHomeClick)". Great, so now we're all done, and let's check and make sure it works. Before we do that, we need to go through our script here just so we know what to expect. The first thing that occurs in this script, is that the variable is defined and populated. The second, is that the function and listener are defined. Here's the function in 5 through 8, and then in line 10, we've defined our listener. The contents of the function won't execute until they're called. The listener has been added to the button, which is set up to listen for our MouseEvent.CLICK. So, we start of with a value of home, when we then click on the button, the function is called, which re-evaluates or re-assigns a value of products to nextSection, and then nextSection is traced to the output window. So, the ultimate result is we get nothing initially in the output window, and when we click the button, the variable is re-defined and we get the new result in the output window. Alright let's test is to see how it works.
Control > Test Movie. So, we get initially nothing as we expected, let me hide this for you, when we click on our button, the output window shows us products. That's exactly what we wanted. Let's close our output window, and let's close our SWF and go back to our main movie. That's an overview of how to create an event listener, and now that we have this under our belt, we can take the same process and apply it to several buttons. We'll create multiple listeners and functions for our navigation buttons and then we'll begin to control other elements such as our components, and so on as we go through the course.
