Glad to hear it. I vote the same and pay the same as you...never been on welfare, and for the record I am a vet (Vietnam-Army). I stand by my original frustration that this group of hardline Republicans has sabotaged politics, (which I used to believe was the 'art of compromise' for the betterment of our country). I can't see how politicians can represent their districts by towing a party line.
eplain-chill out, calm down...listen to reason, save your NRA dues and buy some prozac.
I find it ironic on your heading "Why Washington is so screwed up," but you offer no substance other than to flame the democrats. The truth (very apparent) is that the republicans-both branches-conservative and ultra conservative took a vow right at Obama's first inauguration to "just say no" to EVERYTHING! Regardless of his first attempts to reach across the aisle to find middle ground the republicans sole purpose was to make him a one-term president...so many opportunities wasted, not to mention sabotaging the economy...directly and indirectly yours and mine 401K's. The republicans should be tried for TREASON!
How unAmerican. They can take the credit for taking this great country down.
-On the 'Nikon digital camera backs,' isn't there an adapter that enables attaching a Nikon camera body to a 4 by 5 (or other view camera) back? Seems I've seen a picture of this configuration, but I can't understand how it could work. Anyone know anything about this?
No, he had 'binders' of women voting for him. GR , Rove, and mainstream were, and still are so out of touch.
That is ironic...this is what they were predicting about George Bush! You must be listening to Rush.
'Blurry-Eye' and all you others are going to have to get over it-Obama won the election, period! Now it's time for Republican (and Democratic) congressmen to move on from wasting the past four years of being obstructionists, with the sole mission of "getting him un-elected," to doing their jobs in Congress. I wish I had their benefits-healthcare and retirement, not to mention being able to vote in their own raises. My retirement savings has been held hostage to their whims and tantrums these past months.
Whenever you get a CD of pictures made at the time of processing, (i.e. WalMart), aren't they at a much-lower resolution? I've opened up a set and wouldn't even consider printing from them. Are they just meant for a reference?
I want to watch them all. I also want to visit England and Scotland, traveling on rails as much as possible. Do they still have EurRail, or whatever passes available? Thank you for sharing.
Was this HDR, or other technique in post? Very nice, I am in the midwest where I rarely get to see calm waters.
Welcome to UHH. I am intrigued how others (outside US) are fascinated with aviation. Several years ago, visiting Scotland, I witnessed many who just were watching the normal landings and takeoffs at airports. I live and work in an aviation manufacturing area but we seem to tune it out, (although I can tell by the sound generally the type of aircraft flying over without looking).
Look forward to seeing some of your pictures.
Try DVXuser.com They have forums on DLSR, film,Canon and Nikon . Great group of experienced people who answers questions.
Dear Red States:
We're ticked off at your Neanderthal attitudes and politics and we've decided we're leaving. "Legitimate rape."
We in New York intend to form our own country and we're taking the other Blue States with us.
In case you aren't aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and the rest of the Northeast.
We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation and especially to the people of the new country, The Enlightened States of America (E.S.A).
To sum up briefly:
You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states.
We get stem cell research and the best beaches.
We get Andrew Cuomo and Elizabeth Warren. You get Bobby Jindal and Todd Akin.
We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand.
We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.
We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss.
We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs.
You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue. You get to make the red states pay their fair share.
Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms.
With the Blue States in hand we will have firm control of 80% of the country's fresh water, more than 90% of the pineapple and lettuce, 92% of the nation's fresh fruit, 95% of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90% of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the US low sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.
With the Red States you will have to cope with 88% of all obese Americans and their projected health care costs, 92% of all US mosquitoes, nearly 100% of the tornadoes, 90% of the hurricanes, 99% of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100% of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.
We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.
38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62% believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44% say that evolution is only a theory, 53% that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61% of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties.
We're taking the good weed too. You can have that crap they grow in Mexico.
Sincerely,
Citizen of the Enlightened States of America
