Love knows no limit to its endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope; it can outlast anything.  It is, in fact, the one thing that still stands when all else has fallen.
13:7-8a    Paul’s First Letter To The Christians At Corinth

J. B. Phillips New Testament, a modern English translation.

Did you know that you can control the content, arrangement, quantity, and color of what you see on your main FR page?

Just click on the words "Configure Sidebar" found at the bottom right hand side of the Forum page under the 'sidebar'.  This takes you to "My Page Layout" where you can choose your personal preferences.

And for anyone interested in gun rights topics. . . Since the keyword banglist is added to most all of the gun articles, you can have a list of them appear on your main FR page. O.K. How to do that...

Go to the list of Keywords on the Main page and click on banglist...on the resulting page go to near the bottom of the page, on the right side, and click on Add to My Page.

Then go to this page: Manage Blocks
...look for the line “Keyword: banglist” and choose the location where you would like a list of “banglist” articles to be displayed on your main FR page. When finished choosing, click the “modify” button at the bottom of the page.

You can change it back or further modify it anytime on the “My Page Layout” page, just click “Account” at the top of your main FR page...then click “Manage Blocks”.



The FR search works best if you confine it to one or two significant words of the title (usually one is all you need) and stay away from words of three characters or less. Those don’t work at all. And avoid typos by using cut and paste rather than typing the words in. Also, it appears that some people are not choosing the “Title” option in the pull down. That’s required if you wish to search by title. JimRob

FreeRepublic has many options that allow all users to view specific topic categories the way they want.

For example, if you want to view all categories, link to this page:

http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/*/index

If you, however, don’t want to see blogs, chit chat, religion, etc, link to this page:

http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/news-forum/index

If you are only interested in a specific subject, let’s say 2nd Amendment Issues, you can also sort just by keywords like this:

http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/banglist/index?tab=articles

The architecture of this site allows for the end user to see the content he wants in the way he wants more than most other forum platforms. This site also has XML feeds on which, you can use various widges around the web to actually feed you information you want. For example, if you want a feed of just breaking news articles, you can link to it using the RSS link at the bottom of the page like this:

http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/breaking-news/feed.rss

You can even use these feeds to display custom content on a mobile device that is formatted best for that device if you like. For example, if you have a Blackberry, you can use this app with the RSS feed of the content you like.

Speaking of mobile devices, we’ve had a lot of reports from members that the architecture of this site allows it to work far better on most mobile devices than other forum platforms.
We have one member who has actually created a desktop AIR application he uses to give him a custom view of the site’s content he wants to see using these feeds.

As you can see, you can do a lot with this site and filter what you want. This isn’t a one-size fits all site. A little exploring and you can get exactly the content you want delivered to you the way you want.

How Obama Got Elected... Interviews With Obama Voters
It’s interviews of actual Obama voters...it is sad and fascinating at the same time. You’ll get a kick out of how uninformed they are and all of their wacky ideas (like the people Jay Leno interviews on the street).



SWAT Tactics at Issue After Fairfax Shooting
By Tom Jackman
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, January 27, 2006; Page B01

Salvatore J. Culosi Sr. still can’t believe his son, a 37-year-old optometrist, was a suspected sports bookie. He can’t believe a heavily armed SWAT team fatally shot his unarmed son, Salvatore J. Culosi Jr., outside his Fair Oaks home Tuesday night.

And Culosi can’t believe that the SWAT team’s sudden descent on his son, apparently causing one officer to accidentally fire a .45-caliber handgun once into his son’s chest, is standard procedure for Fairfax County police conducting a search.

Only well-trained professionals in the military and the police need guns.  History proves that civilians are much better off without them.

Amnesty is the “point of no return”. All the other foolish policies can be changed by a later administration, although the huge debt will have to be dealt with. However, 20-30 million new, uneducated, government dependent, Democrat voters will forever change the American government, society, and our way of life. One party rule will be a fact of life that cannot be changed.

So the Temple is rebuilt and there’s a big fight out at Megiddo. It’s not like it’s the end of the world.

... when someone runs for President all records should be an open book including passport records. There is no reason to keep anything like that secret if you want to be President.

‘Change,’ for Alinsky, invoked radical socialism and meant the redistribution of wealth.
[For] Obama [it] means the same, but by hiding the reference he avoids having to be explicit about the radical goal behind the theme.”

Some Key Alinsky Code Words
Change - Eliminating the free enterprise system and replacing it with socialism, and peacefully overthrowing the present government and replacing it with communism.
Community Organizer - One who (1) agitates by identifying and magnifying the real or imagined failings of the establishment as they supposedly apply to the target group, (2) organizes the target group into a political force, and (3) turns that force into “change”.

Just because something is deemed a law, doesn't mean it is immune to misapplication or abuse.
