    NIV is a very popular version, and is copyrighted, as is NASB, ESV, etc.

    I disagree. By not playing, you're protecting yourself from future retribution, deserved or (more commonly) not. And not being on social media - or more precisely, not posting on s…

    Yep. I throw 30-40 year old lenses on my 10 year old E-PL1 and go out and just have fun with photography. I never worry about taking it out on the beach, or on a boat, or any other…

    Any news article that mentions the number of new positive cases without mentioning the number of new tests is doing it for the clicks. One is fairly useless without the other. 150 …

    This article goes so far as to flirt with the testing numbers without actually siting them. I really don't see what's so hard for news outlets to throw the total number of tests al…

    Look on YouTube for folks flying something like a Kit Fox (start with Trent Palmer). You'll find some fun videos of some cool spots they land. Also, STOL drags are cool to watch.

    Can I tell you what you didn't say? You didn't say the local item was cheaper. That's an important bit of your argument.

    People are buying the new products due to a lack of cheaper alternatives, which you said yourself (it's the whole reason they're carrying local items in the first place). Once thos…

    There are several options; fetchRSS, RSS-Bridge, etc. I personally have RSS-Bridge running on my local webserver, and use it for Twitter feeds, Instagram, Facebook, etc.

    In addition, the US economy is rebounding faster than anyone predicted, indicating a strong foundation. Capitalism did that.

    Heck, I still find sites that don't like "nonstandard" TLDs in your email address. Try putting an address that's not .com, .net, etc and it throws an error.
