I lost the MSN homepage last night. Was reading the news articles, clicked on one of them and my virus protect program shut it out. Now I can't get back into it.
How do you know it was the virus protect that shut it down? Any screen warnings?
Are you using Win 10âs Edge browser or I.E. Explorer or Chrome, etc.?
Have you gone into the browser Settings to see if theyâve been changed?

I can go everywhere else on the internet but not to MSN.
What happens when you try to call up the MSN site in your browser?
Did you try using Google to find the MSN website address and entering from there?

Both McFee and MalwareBytes don't give any indication of what is wrong. Have reset the modem as suggested and shut down and restarted the computer. Still no joy. Guess I have something to keep me busy this afternoon.
Did you check in their Quarantine /History files to see if and what they may have stopped?
Have you checked your Firewall settings to see if MSM is being blocked, as shown here...

View http://www.buhla.de/Foto/batt-adapt-US.pdf for all you need to know on adapting from discontinued mercury batteries to the modern silver-oxide equivalents. Note that Alkaline cells put out a somewhat lower voltage and are not constant enough over their life time for dependable readings from your meter.
In 2006 I purchased PX625 battery adapters for a Lunasix and an SRT-101, from Frans de Gruijter in the Netherlands. The adapters have step-down resistors dropping silver-oxides from 1.6 V to 1.35 V and they have worked perfectly. His email address is given at the bottom of the above .pdf.

I take it back; you are shinning me on.
Need I become frustrated with false claims, insults, slurs, and fire back in kind?
Need I charge you as typical of a certain political party, question your manhood, claim that you lack the intellect or courage for honest discourse?
Shall I play the infantile game so evidenced by certain members?
Nope.

Lol there is different ways how beat people up. Was it referring to physically beating people up.
LOL
I accept for the moment that your intent here isn’t to shine me on.
Yes, a potential meaning for “beat” is the physical striking of someone or something and there are indeed many different ways to beat people up… or down.
However, the meaning of a word is understood by application of the linguistic context of the discourse and circumstances of the situation it references. This understanding is universal to all communication and is normally reached through a judicious interpretation as influenced by the cultural mores of the society it is expressed with-in.
I point at you and raise my thumb. That could be a sign of agreement, acceptance or even a positive comment about you.
Another viewer, predisposed to find fault in me and, even knowing the surrounding circumstances and context, might willfully choose to report that I signaled you to “sit on this and rotate”.

I don't want to sound like an apologist for this poor woman but maybe she meant figuratively instead of literally. You would think someone with her responsibilities would know the difference. At her level of trumpsplaining, communication is all about NOT being misunderstood.
You needn’t apologise over “this poor woman”; her communication was quite clear.
I believe she knew the difference between literal and literally and I bet even Jason Easley knew it too.
Just to be clear, literally is an intensifier used before a figurative expression.
“His comments were so crushing, they literally smashed her to the floor.”
Do you think it means she was actually smashed to the floor?
Of course, this is all my opinion… unless, I misunderstood you.

Battleground Map: Hillary Clinton Solidifies Lead Against Donald Trump
How does this new headline relate to A New Level Of Crazy With Claim Of Reporters Beating Trump Supporters which was the original topic?
Quote:
well if thats your take on what that means. well good luck with rest of your life.
Yes, that’s my take of what Ms. Pierson said and meant.
Thank you for your good wishes and the best of literal luck to you in your future endeavours.

Pierson didn't claim a literal beating by reporters. She said, “…they are tired of seeing left wing reporters literally beat Trump supporters into submission…”
As used, the word is an intensifier for beat, a figurative expression, not an actual action.
Passing on deliberately deceptive claims does no one any credit.

Nice shot. Can I ask when and where this was taken as I live near Biggin Hill and saw the Red Arrows fly over in the distance the last Friday and Saturday but couldn't find out where the air show was. Thanks Terry.
According to the Red Arrows web page, they performed at the Eastbourne International Airshow, Eastbourne, on the 12th and 13th.

Partly, it is because a cell phone's camera function is secondary. Cells are designed to be held, viewed and operated vertically as a phone.
Your camera's body and controls are oriented specifically for horizontal shooting.
Also, there is a lack of aesthetic awareness on the photographer's part. No consideration is given other than the need to zero in, capture and post online ASAP.
For another viewpoint:
