Years ago I got a call from someone from one of the major LDS book publishers. (It's been so long I can't remember which - although it definitely wasn't Deseret Books) They were planning on publishing a kind of Mormon dictionary that addressed many of the topics within Mormonism using short scholarly entries. The main emphasis was less the summation than to have a pretty thorough bibliography for each entry. They were calling me because several people had suggested that I was the best source for … [Read more...]
Mormon Ways of Knowing
"Have You Been Saved?"
To oversimplify things a bit, Mormon notions of salvation are more consistent with Paul, while Evangelical notions of salvation are more consistent with deutero-Pauline ideas. In essence, Mormons, like Paul, believe that salvation is a future event; while Evangelicals, like deutero-Pauline authors, believe that salvation is a present event.The deutero-Pauline letter Ephesians claims, "by grace you have been saved" (Eph 2:5, NRSV). The deutero-Pauline text Colossians agrees, and goes even f … [Read more...]
Apologetics Into Doctrine: Romney's Impact
It appears that Andrew Sullivan published something on Mormons yesterday. How do I know this without reading Sullivan? Because there's a zillion Mormons responding to his comments at sites far removed. In fact, there's a bumper crop of Mormon apologetics springing up all over the place and I'm detecting a bit of a common theme. It is, I think, something of a South Park approach. … [Read more...]
100 Years of Seminary. And BTW Gay Marriage
In 1971, Elder Boyd K. Packer gave a talk in which he stated: The gospel might be likened to the keyboard of a piano—a full keyboard with a selection of keys on which one who is trained can play a variety without limits; a ballad to express love, a march to rally, a melody to soothe, and a hymn to inspire; an endless variety to suit every mood and satisfy every need.How shortsighted it is, then, to choose a single key and endlessly tap out the monotony of a single note, or even two or three … [Read more...]
Mormons and Wild Geese
The first line of Mary Oliver's poem "Wild Geese" seems as at odds with Mormonism as anything can be. "You do not have to be good," she states.What's that? It sounds an awfully lot like sacrilege. Of course we have to be good. Jesus admonished us to become perfect, and not only do we have the 10 commandments of other Bible-believers, we have a strict health code, a tithing requirement, and obligatory church attendance. A Latter-day Saint's entire identity can be wrapped up in the necessity of … [Read more...]
Canon and Culture: The Scriptures Made Me Do It!
Fundamentalism is the belief that all that the scriptures and revelation say are to be taken as factually accurate. This view is clearly problematic, but I'd like to address its cousin, foundationalism. Foundationalism admits that the scriptures are not factually accurate in all things (though they may be in some), yet argues that they still give us clear moral, ethical, or doctrinal guidance. The scriptures, when properly interpreted, are the secure foundation for our doctrines about the … [Read more...]
Capital Punishment and LDS Doctrinal Development
This morning my facebook and twitter feeds were inundated with declarations by my Latter-day Saint friends decrying capital punishment and the execution of Troy Davis last night. "I want to take this opportunity to voice my outright and unequivocal opposition to the death penalty," said one. "A sad day to be a Georgian," lamented another. I wasn't really surprised, but I am fascinated by how the tide of public support of capital punishment has ebbed among Mormons in my own lifetime. … [Read more...]

Couldn't get the app to work, posted a question on wordpress.org and the dev helped me sort it out the next day! highly reccomend the plugin works no problem,
Works great. Thank you!
Doe the job as advertised, i would have prefered more advanced permalinks settings.
-Easy to use
-Friendly and helpful author :)
Edit: I was corrected by the plugin developer and apologize for any inconvenience.
With that said, the plugin works as described.
I install it and change the category permalink in post but it didn't change.
A longtime user of this plugin, I can highly recommend it. Only once an issue occurred after a major update, however, support was quick, friendly and helpful. Worked like a charm soon again.
I took a Long time to find this plugin. But it is real great and exaclty what I was looking for.
Thanks a lot

THE LEGEND OF DRUNKEN MASTER (R) Jackie Chan does some of his best fighting, though fewer crazy stunts, in this magnificent mess from 1994 that vaults from broad comedy (Anita Mui doing "I Love Lucy Liu") to intense melodrama, shows off the comic "drunken boxing" style, and bashes the Brits of a century ago for plundering Chinese land and antiquities. It's dubbed in English so you can focus on the action. Sexagenarian director Lau Ka Leung has some fight scenes too, suggesting Chan's career doesn't have to end anytime soon. -- SW
THE LITTLE VAMPIRE (PG) 1/2 In an E.T.-like tale of friendship overcoming fear and prejudice, a lonely, 9-year-old American in Scotland (Jonathan Lipnicki) finds a playmate (Rollo Weeks) from a family of vampires and protects them from a vampire hunter while helping them recover a magic amulet that can restore their mortality. The movie tries to give kids a good scare without it turning into a bad scare, but the chief compromise--the vampires suck cows' blood rather than humans'--won't endear it to vegetarians. -- SW
LOST SOULS (R) It's Win vs. Sin as Winona Ryder takes charge when an exorcist can't stop the devil from possessing the body of Ben Chaplin, a grown-up version of Rosemary's Baby. Played straight, even somberly, without arousing much concern in the viewer, the plot is familiar -- especially when Stigmata, End of Days, Bless the Child and the original Exorcist have opened since its scheduled release date -- but until it turns sillier than necessary near the end it isn't as bad as its year on the shelf would indicate. Cinematographer Janusz Kaminski directs with more emphasis on fancy camerawork than special effects. -- SW
LOVING JEZEBEL (R) 1/2 It's hard to tell if Theodorous Melville (Hill Harper, who's like Spike Lee, only boring) is bragging or complaining when he tells us, "I've spent a lifetime loving other men's women." It's harder to care as he reviews his sexual history from his first-grade crush to his current affair with a woman whose husband is trying to kill him. Debuting writer/director Kwyn Bader has turned out a good-looking film on a budget. It's refreshingly color-blind with race a non-issue, but the script is neither as funny nor as moving as it's obviously intended to be. -- SW
LUCKY NUMBERS (R) 1/2 In a bittersweet comedy about undeserving people fighting over a fortune, John Travolta both uses and spoofs his smarmy charm as a Harrisburg celebrity who turns to strip club owner (Tim Roth) for financial counseling when his house and Jaguar are repossessed. He's advised to rig the state lottery for the $6.4-million prize, and does so with the help of "Lottoball Girl" (Lisa Kudrow), a foulmouthed slut. The film ambles instead of galloping, but Adam Resnick's screenplay has an appealing sense of place and low-key, throwaway gags that upset the rhythm but are the best thing about the movie. -- SW
MEET THE PARENTS (PG-13) 1/2 This movie is banal, moronic, plodding and predictable. Starring Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro, the film is intended to appeal to those enamored of director Jay Roach's previous Austin Powers flicks and no doubt it will. For those fortunate enough to have missed the latter, ask yourself whether a family being splashed with the muck from an overflowing septic tank is your kind of humor? -- RJ
THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS (PG) Even if it failed to ring my Christmas bells or break through to my inner child in 1993, for generations of children, this could be their first cult film while it also rewards adults who approach fantasy films with a childlike sense of wonder. Technically, Tim Burton's film delights with its visual detail (with nods to Addams and Gorey) and the fluidity of its stop-motion animation. The story of Jack Skellington's multicultural experiment, combining the worlds of Christmas and Halloween, is brightened by Danny Elfman's score, but as for his unmelodic and unmemorable songs -- bah, humbug! -- SW
NURSE BETTY (R) 1/2 In the Company of Men's Neil LaBute swaps his trademark nihilism for an improbably sentimental comedy, with mixed results. A trauma convinces a Kansas waitress (Renee Zellweger) that her favorite soap opera is real, leading to amusing misunderstandings worthy of Being There, but also too much of David Lynch's small-town condescension and Tarantino style ironic violence. Morgan Freeman's scary but quixotic hitman stands out among an appealing ensemble. -- CH

5 tips for PR on a shoestring

MLS and the
Why the media get real estate issues so wrong . . . and what you can do about it.
There's something rotten in the news these days. Although news media across the country are reporting on the real estate boom—from the New York Times to the Topeka Capital Journal—very few cast Realtors® in a positive light. When reporters aren't portraying Realtors® as money-hungry hustlers, chances are they're botching facts or bungling quotes.
Writing a letter or opinion piece for the press? "The first mistake people make is responding to something negative in another article," says Steve Cook, NAR's vice president of public relations. "You're better off delivering the message you want to convey, instead of debating or criticizing what someone else said." Here are tips from Cook on writing letters and opinion articles.
* Know the format in which you're writing. Letters to the editor respond to a previous article; opinion articles are proactive ways to get your message out.
By Saul Klein
Many brokers today want a sense of "oneness" with their MLS. They want one MLS that covers their entire market and they want to pay one fee to oneorganization. They want to be able to serve on one MLS board, deal with one MLS vendor, receive their data in one format, and play by one set of MLS rules. Too often, though, multiplicity is the name of the game.

Although technology has made listing data more valuable, it has also made it more vulnerable. And protecting it isn't easy. To keep data from being stolen, a host of technical and legal hurdles must be overcome—from securing copyright to determining ownership.
Here we'll explore the legal issues raised by the need to better protect and manage MLS and listing data and take a look at efforts under way for providing better protection.

Drupal 7.50 released
Drupal 7.50, the next release in the Drupal 7 series, is now available for download. It contains a variety of new features, improvements, and bug fixes (no security fixes).Wait... Drupal 7.50?
Yes, there is a version jump compared to the previous 7.44 release; this is to indicate that this Drupal 7 point release is a bit larger than past ones and makes a few more changes and new features available than normal.
Updating your existing Drupal 7 sites is recommended. Backwards compatibility is still being maintained, although read on to find out about a couple of changes that might need your attention during the update.Download Drupal 7.50 Notable changes
There are a variety of new features, performance improvements, security-related enhancements (although no fixes for direct security vulnerabilities) and other notable changes in this release. The release notes provide a comprehensive list, but here are some highlights.New "administer fields" permission added for trusted users
The administrative interface for adding and configuring fields has always been something that only trusted users should have access to. To make that easier, there is now a dedicated permission which is required (in addition to other existing administrative permissions) to be able to access the field UI.
For example, you can now assign the "administer taxonomy" permission (but withhold the new "administer fields" permission) to allow low-level administrators to manage taxonomy terms but not change the field structure. Read the change record for more information.Protection against clickjacking enabled by default
Clickjacking is a technique a malicious site owner can use to attempt attacks on other sites, by embedding the victim's site into an iframe on their own site.
To stop this, Drupal will now prevent your site from being embedded in an iframe on another domain. This is the default behavior, but it can be adjusted if necessary; see the change record to find out more.Support for full UTF-8 (emojis, Asian symbols, mathematical symbols) is now possible on MySQL
If content creators on your site have been clamoring to use emojis, it's now possible on Drupal sites running MySQL (it was previously possible on PostgreSQL and SQLite). Turning this capability on requires the database to meet certain requirements, plus editing the site's settings.php file and potentially other steps, as described in the change record.Improved support for recent PHP versions, including PHP 7
Drupal core's automated test suite is now fully passing on a variety of environments where there were previously some failures (PHP 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, and 7). We have also fixed several bugs affecting those versions. These PHP versions are officially supported by Drupal 7 and recommended for use where possible.
Because PHP 7 is the newest release (and not yet used on many production sites) extra care should still be taken with it, and there are some known bugs, especially in contributed modules (see the discussion for more details). However anecdotal evidence from a variety of users suggests that Drupal 7 can be successfully used on PHP 7, both before and after the 7.50 release.Improved performance (and new PHP warnings) when Drupal is trying to find a file that does not exist
When Drupal cannot find a file that it expects to be in the filesystem, it will no longer continually search for it on a large number of page requests (previously, this could significantly hurt your site's performance). Instead, it will record a PHP warning about the problem.
Read the change record for more information, and make sure your production site is not configured to show warning messages like this on the screen, since it is not desirable for site visitors to see them. (In order to configure this, go to "Administration" → "Configuration" → "Development" → "Logging and errors" and set the "Error messages to display" option to "None".)Improvements to help search engines index your site's images/CSS/JavaScript
Drupal's default robots.txt file now includes rules to allow search engines to access more of these files than it previously allowed them to, which may help certain search engines better index your site. See the change record for additional details.More information
- You can find the full list of changes between the previous 7.44 release and the current 7.50 release by reading the 7.50 release notes.
- Also see the release notes for additional update information and known issues discovered after the release.
- You can find a complete list of all changes in the stable 7.x branch in the git commit log.
- Translators should be aware of a few administrative-facing translatable string changes and additions in this release.
- We have a security announcement mailing list and a history of all security advisories, as well as an RSS feed with the most recent security advisories. We strongly advise Drupal administrators to sign up for the list.
- Drupal 7 includes the built-in Update Manager module, which informs you about important updates to your modules and themes.
- There are no security fixes in this release of Drupal core.
- Drupal 7 is being actively maintained, so more maintenance releases will be made available, according to our monthly release cycle.
- We will consider continuing to do larger Drupal 7 releases like this one every six months or so (where the next larger release will be 7.60, in keeping with Drupal's new release cycle) if there is interest and continued contributions from the community. See the ongoing discussion for further details.
In case you missed the news earlier, we recently added two new Drupal 7 co-maintainers: Fabianx (@fabianfranz) and stefan.r (@stefan_arrr)! Despite only having been official maintainers for the past two weeks, they put in an enormous amount of effort and skill into Drupal 7.50, which was essential in getting it out the door with all the improvements mentioned above.Credits

Prevalence of, and predictors of, bile acid malabsorption in outpatients with chronic diarrhea
Address for Correspondence
Dr. Alex Ford, Leeds Gastroenterology Institute, Room 125, 4th Floor, Bexley Wing, St. James's University Hospital, Beckett Street, Leeds LS9 7TF, UK.
Tel: +44 1132 68 4963; fax: +44 1132 42 9722;
e-mail: email@example.com
Background Many physicians do not consider the diagnosis of bile acid malabsorption in patients with chronic diarrhea, or do not have access to testing. We examined yield of 23-seleno-25-homo-tauro-cholic acid (SeHCAT) scanning in chronic diarrhea patients, and attempted to identify predictors of a positive test.
Methods Consecutive patients with chronic diarrhea undergoing SeHCAT scan over a 7-year period were identified retrospectively. Bile acid malabsorption was defined as present at a retention of <15%. Medical records were reviewed to obtain information regarding proposed risk factors. Gastrointestinal symptoms were recorded, and patients were classified as having diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) if they reported abdominal pain or discomfort. Independent risk factors were assessed using multivariate logistic regression, and odds ratios (ORs) with 99% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.
Key Results Of 373 patients, 190 (50.9%) had bile acid malabsorption. Previous cholecystectomy (OR 2.51; 99% CI 1.10–5.77), terminal ileal resection or right hemicolectomy for Crohn's disease (OR 12.4; 99% CI 2.42–63.8), and terminal ileal resection or right hemicolectomy for other reasons (OR 7.94; 99% CI 1.02–61.6) were associated with its presence. Seventy-seven patients had IBS-D, and 21 (27.3%) tested positive.

Read an Excerpt
"Hurry!" Peg's blue eyes were bright with excitement. Her brown pigtails flew behind her as she ran to the small white ticket booth. Korky was right at her heels.
"Ten tickets please, Mo," Peg said, nearly out of breath.
"You two again?" Mo laughed. His large grin showed a missing front tooth. Mo was a rather portly man whose stomach hung over his belt. His head was balding and he had more hair on his face than on his head. Most days short gray whiskers covered his face. "You were here yesterday," Mo continued, "and I believe the day before too."
Peg smiled, showing a mouth full of shiny braces. "Yeah. We love being here!" Peg loved the Wellborn Amusement Park. She loved the smells of popcorn, cotton candy and hot dogs mingled together. She enjoyed hearing the carnival music and the shouts from the barkers along the midway.
"What rides will you go on today?" Mo scratched his chin.
"As many as we can with ten tickets," Korky said.
"Here are your tickets. Have fun!" Mo waved to the twelve-year-old cousins as they ran toward the roller coaster.
The amusement park had another ticket booth, but Peg and Korky always went to Mo's. They saw him nearly every day and he had become their friend.
Peg and Korky spent a lot of time at the amusement park. Peg's friends couldn't understand why she liked the park's rides so much, or why Peg spent so much time with a boy. But Peg and Korky were best friends. They always had been.
"We only have two tickets left?" Peg asked. It seemed like only minutes had passed since they had bought them.
Korky nodded. "Which ride should we go on?"
"The roller coaster!" Peg said.
Korky laughed. "I knew you'dsay that."
Peg started running at full speed and stopped short. A small cloud of dust mushroomed at her feet.
"Peg!" Korky bumped into her back. He rubbed his smashed nose.
"The Spin Around is closed." Peg pointed to the closed sign. It was hanging on a thick chain across the entrance to bar people from getting near the closed ride.
Korky shrugged. "So?"
"It was working fine yesterday," Peg said. She walked to the chain and leaned over.
"What can you see?" Korky asked.
"What are you looking for?"
"I don't know," Peg admitted. "Something to tell me why this ride is closed."
"It could be electrical," Korky joked.
Peg punched Korky's arm playfully. Her father was an electrician and owned his own business in the city of Redmond. This summer he was helping with the electricity in the amusement park. This problem with the Spin Around couldn't be electrical--her father was too good to make a serious mistake.
"If the Spin Around is broken, why isn't anyone working on it?" Peg wondered. She walked around the outside of the fence, which surrounded the ride.
"Maybe they had to order parts," Korky suggested.
Peg shook her head. "I don't think so. Nothing has been taken apart. You know, the guy that operates this is always nervous. I wonder if he had trouble with the law, so he left town? Or maybe he's in jail right now." Peg's eyes widened.
"That sounds farfetched, even for you," Korky said.
"It's a thought though." Peg nodded her head.
"What's up with you two?" a deep voice asked.
Peg turned around as she recognized the voice. "Hi, Dad."
"Hi, Uncle Frank," Korky greeted.
"Dad, why is the Spin Around closed?" Peg asked.
"I heard that the man who operates it is sick. Carl is his name, I believe," Dad answered.
"They have no one to fill in?" Korky asked. "There are always extra workers hanging around in their trailers." Korky pointed to an area behind the park as he spoke.
"This whole thing is odd," Peg tapped her cheek with her forefinger. "Sounds suspicious to me."
"Everything usually does," Korky teased.
"I'm going home for lunch. I'll take you with me," Dad offered.
Peg thought about the two remaining tickets.
"We could use them later," Korky seemed to read her mind.
Peg nodded. She wanted to go home and think about the Spin Around. If she was on the roller coaster, she couldn't think--only scream.
After lunch Peg hurried to her room. Inside the drawer of her nightstand she kept a small blue notebook for the sole purpose of writing down suspicious happenings. This was one of those occasions. On the cover she had written "P & K."
Peg fell across her unmade bed. She flipped the pages of her notebook until she came to a blank page.
Peg neatly printed:
Wellborn Amusement Park
Spin Around not working today.
1) Electrical (doubtful--Dad did the work)
2) Carl is sick (doubtful--felt fine yesterday.
Nobody gets sick in the summer. No one filled in for him.)
3) Broken (doubtful--no parts were disconnected)
4) Sabotage
Peg stared at her list. The answer was so obvious. Now, she had to figure out what Carl had done and why.
Peg's tummy fluttered. Yes! They had another case to work on--another mystery to solve for the community of Redmond. After all, it was her civic duty. She called Korky and told him to meet her ASAP.

Something Ken Rockwell said.
In Ken Rockwell's review of the D60, he kept saying that because of having more pixels, the D60 was not as fast or good in low light as the D40. Would shooting the D60 at 6mp solve that, or is the D40 just faster and better in low light? Any opinions on this?
#14. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 1WillyPete Registered since 09th Feb 2006Sat 14-Jun-08 05:43 PM
>Take was Ken says with a large pinch of salt.
A lot of what he says is correct in the context of what he is discussing but NOT in general.
I'll agree with his opnions on saving money, get the simplest gear for your needs and get out there and shoot.
In this his case, his logic is flawed.
Using the same logic and applying it to other cameras, you can see this.
The D2x has more pixels than the D1x. Does it have worse low light abilities?
Is the D3 worse than the D2H?
The D300 worse than the D70 in low light?
Definitely not.
#2. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 0
A higher megapixel camera is just as "fast" as one with fewer pixels. The D60 has a lower base ISO (100 instead of 200 as on the D40), and that would affect its low light ability, but you can change it to 200, or higher, so it makes no difference.
#3. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 0
So you think they perform equally? I was leaning toward the D60 just because it's 2 years newer than the D40. I just really need something thats good in low light and fast for kids sporting events. I'm getting the 55-200 VR lens regardless of which camera I buy, so that's not really a factor in my decision.
#4. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 3ruca2k8 Registered since 27th Feb 2008Fri 13-Jun-08 12:13 PM
I'll start by "ditto"ing what Hedley said.
For Ken, the D40 is perfect. Others, like myself, prefer D4 my case) or D60 - long discussions all over the place about that war, and I'm not bringing it back
My reasons for posting: if you need low-light capabilities, I don't think the 55-200 will please you very much, especially low-light sports.
I'd suggest you look into faster lenses, starting at f2.8 and moving to f1.8 and f1.4.
Good luck and regardless of camera chosen, show a few pics and have fun.
#5. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 0
First word of advice, be wary of that site. Often grains of truth are mixed with intentionally controversial opinions, which seems to generate "buzz" and drive hits back to his site. "Reviews" there are often opinions written without ever touching the equipment, based off a spec sheet, press release, or pre-conceived notions. Be wary of any review that doesn't have any test data or pictures to back up the claims, and even if it does, then try to corroborate any test with one from another site, because often test data can be skewed to match the reviewer's opinion.
Rockwell's advice here, at least the grain of truth, seems to be aimed at "best bang for the buck" for people shooting snapshots for posting web sized or printing 4x6 prints, which is perhaps what a large % of DSLR purchasers do. In this respect, the D40 is better because it's cheaper and it will do those things equally well, because in both those examples you're throwing away 75% of your pixels on the 6MP camera.
The higher pixel density of the D60 will help you if you want to print really big (bigger than 12x18") or if you shoot distant objects (wildlife/sports) and find yourself needing to crop.
The general rule is that higher pixel density cameras have more noise, which means the D40 should be better at high ISO (low light) but the D60 is newer tech and has the image processing chip introduced with the D3 & D300, so general rules won't necessarily apply. If D60 noise performance is anything like D300 then it's a wash or edge to D60. For this info, I suggest you dig up an actual review.
The "faster" could only apply to flash sync speed, where the D40 can sync with the flash at a faster shutter. This may be a concern if you plan to do a lot of flash photography of moving objects. The base ISO of 100 on D60 vs. 200 on D40 doesn't mean anything with respect to speed or noise. The D40 can't be faster than D60 at ISO 200 because the D60 shoots ISO 200 as well. Higher ISO always introduces more noise, but the comparison is only relevant comparing ISO levels on the same camera. A different camera will have a different noise floor so you can make no correlation whatsoever between ISO and noise.

I saw Rockwell's site mentioned quite a few times since I joined here, so I assumed he was "The Guru." I totally based my decision on his review - so thanks for the heads up. I'm sure there have been MANY debates on which is better and I certainly wasn't trying to start one. That being said, here's my take on that and please tell me if I'm wrong. First of all, I don't feel I can go wrong with either one - I just thought that the D40 is already 2 yrs. old. (I'm not sure if that matters or not.) When you print out the side-by side comparisons, there really aren't a whole lot of differences. Which is why I was surprised when Ken said the D40 was alot faster. The camera stores are recommending the D60, but I wonder if that's just because it costs more?

Hi Lisa,
I wouldn't worry about store salesperson recommendations. Do you have any idea the experience level of the person giving the advice? It could be that he or she is making a better commission off the D60. Or maybe an honest opinion. I'd give personal preference to the D60 but that would be for my needs and my budget, not yours. You've gotten some pretty balanced opinions here on the primary differences between the 2 cameras, read that over again and make the call for yourself.
Regarding Rockwell, it seems every week there's someone totally new to this site and to DSLRs who chimes in with advice for another newbie to go read that site (you did it yourself in another thread). The official policy here is that we don't criticize other sites, so you get a one-sided bias of recommendations, while the more experienced members hush up in fear of a smackdown from the moderators. I think this is a real problem for the integrity of the information on this site, but it is what it is. IMO to be fair to Ken, we should either allow criticism or disallow all recommendations completely. Rockwell can be entertaining, and there's usually a grain of truth to anything he writes, and that makes his writing compelling. Problem is, until you have some experience, it's difficult to separate the good info from the bad.

LOL - I know, I feel stupid now for have recommending that site now! Sorry about that - I sure didn't mean to cause any problems for anybody. Like I said, I saw him recommended by someone else and mentioned a couple other times, so I assumed..... (my mistake)
I thought the same thing about the sales people. The commission part, I mean. I thought they all had some sort of knowledge or experience because they worked there. How naive of me.
At this point in the game either camera will exceed my skill level:)
#8. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 6fdh Registered since 14th Dec 2005Sat 14-Jun-08 04:26 AM
It's well known that all other things being equal (a big if!) fewer pixels on the same size sensor usually results in higher quality of pixels noise wise. This becomes more important with those small, compact p/s cameras with very small sensors. In the case of the d40 vs d60 whether it will result in one stop better low light performance (or even any difference in performance) on the d40 as I believe Ken Rockwell implies is something I don't really know. If this is really important to you I'd suggest looking elsewhere for more reviews on the cameras (there are a number of sites that I believe do measurements and such so you could find numbers). And, yes, the d60 is newer and might or might not be better for your needs. I believe it's an "incremental" upgrade, without any major technological breakthroughs. And current d40s are perfectly good, worthy and not obsolete cameras. But if available light photography is what you want/need I'd follow suggestions given above and try to pick up an f1.8 or f1.4 lens. The choice I've been thinking of for myself is the sigma 30mm f1.4 lens as it will be able to focus automatically with either of these cameras, whereas many of the "fast" lenses, including Nikon offerings don't because they don't have a built in motor. The sigma at f1.4 if very fast, indeed, and very well suited to low light situation. If you saved a hundred or even two hundred dollars getting a d40 over a d60 and applied that money to the 400 dollars for this lens, you'd have an awesome low light camera lens combination. It would also be a great learning experience, I'm sure. You might want to check out that option before making any decision. Of course, there are other options and paths, but this one seems to stand out to me. good luck and have fun.
#10. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 8Sat 14-Jun-08 06:26 AM
My first SLR was terrible as far as lighting goes. I always had to lug out my external flash, even just for indoor shots. Now I'm sure part of that was my inexperience, but I would buy higher ISO film speeds, and back then I always shot on auto.
I guess it's not that I'm in lowlight so much as I don't want to have use an external flash all the time. Now that I'm learning (a little) about exposure, it might not be so bad. And the digital sure helps that way because you can see that you need to adjust right away.
#11. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said - but was it right?" | In response to Reply # 0
- occasionally Ken is right, but he has a reputation for being closer to 90% wrong. I think this negative reputation is fair.
Photography is a bit like archery. A technically better camera, lens or arrow may not hit the target as often as it could if the photographer or archer does not practice enough.

I have a D60. I have shot volleyball and basketball with it. The problem is NOT the camera, its the lens speed in these gyms that have terrible lighting. You will not go wrong with either camera. However, the 55-200 lens will frustrate you. Find a way to get at least an F/4 lens but preferably a F/2.8. At that you will be cranked up to the highest ISO to shoot at 1/250 sec. hope this helps

OMG- I just read something about Pentax's kit lenses being poor. I bet a hundred bucks that was my problem with my pentax! (my first SLR) I was always so frustrated and thought it was the camera!
Anyway, I spent about 2 hours this morning reading the D60 reviews and low-light tests, and it actually did very well. And now that I know about the effect the lenses have on that stuff, I'm sure if I have a lighting problem, that's the way I'll resolve it. Thanks so much for your input!
#15. "LRE: Something Ken Rockwell said - but was it right?" | In response to Reply # 13fdh Registered since 14th Dec 2005Sat 14-Jun-08 05:50 PM
Great! Very glad that you took the time to do the research. It's almost always available if you do a few searches on the web. Some of it is, of course, a little questionable, but when you look at multiple reviews and find a consensus, it becomes very helpful. The D60 is very nice and you'll be very happy with it. If you can pick up the 18-55 VR kit lens with it (it usually has that model as the kit lens) it will help in low light situations. Also, if you can get a bundle at a good price with the 55-200 VR (be sure it's VR!!!) you will have added value, as usually the price with that lens in a bundle is quite a bit better than the normal kit plus the price of buying that lens individually. Again, the VR will help give you maybe two extra stops of lower light performance in many situations.
With the kit lens, if you want low light performance, you can always open the zoom to it's widest (18mm) as the maximum aperture is larger at that zoom level than at the narrower fields of view. Also, you can shoot at lower shutter speeds at wider angles without blur due to hand shake. That, plus setting the ISO to it's maximum value should give you pretty reasonable low light performance. Later, if you want better low light capabilities, you can pick up a fast prime lens and have even more fun. And, oh yes. These cameras do have a built in flash that pops up when you tell it to (or when it wants to depending on the setting on the big round dial on top!). You are going to have some fun!

Lisa, The picture below was taken in low light, automatic setting Nikon D60, 55-200vr zoom about 25 feet from the stage with just the in-camera flash, Friday at Universal Orlando when Brendan Fraser was there. I think the d60 does ok with low light. Jerry

#17. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 0
The OP asked a question that nobody has addressed. I don't know the answer. But the question is: Will you get better low-light results from a D60 if you set it to 6mp? (Obviously, this only applies to jpg photos, but still a good question.)
#18. "RE: Something Ken Rockwell said." | In response to Reply # 17mtpenmaker Registered since 23rd Aug 2007Sun 13-Jul-08 09:47 PM
The answer is no, because you can't set the D60 to 6 megapixels. It has a 10 megapixel sensor and that's what determines everything else including the amount of noise at high ISO. Setting it to produce a smaller size JPG file doesn't change the properties of the sensor.
As is often the case, KR said one thing,but actually meant something else. The D40 and D60 can both be set for ISO 1600, so the D40 is not faster. He should have just said that, in his opinion, the D40 has better high ISO performance.

Please note that when one talks about low light performance they are typically talking about available light photography (no flash). So we are really talking about ISO or noise performance, when we say low light performance.
It would interesting to see a side by side D40 vs D40x vs D60 night picture at the same settings starting at base ISO and moving up from there. I would expect all three to look the same to the average eye.
What are the details of that photo you posted, ISO? f-stop? shutter?

Cool thats what I was looking for, ISO 900. I'd say thats pretty clean. Although it can be more challenging to tell with a flash shot.

If someone would do the Dynamic Range Collaboration under Collaborations at my site then we would have hard numbers to compare the D60 against other Nikon DSLRs.
The D60 is the only current Nikon model for which I have no data.

Lutsen is broken into four different ski areas: Moose, Ullr, Eagle and Mystery. Ullr is the beginner hill with easy green and blue runs. Mystery is an intermediate hill with three very long runs that are more natural conditions through treed runs. Eagle is mostly advanced skiing with a concentration of black and double black runs. Moose is the traditional ski hill area designed for intermediate and advanced skiers.
My family spent most of our time skiing on Moose in the morning and the other hills in the afternoon. Moose has some of the best combination of steep and long runs. It also had the best snow conditions compared to the other hills. The kids enjoyed the tree runs on Ullr and Eagle the most.
The night life at Lutsen is almost non-existent but you can drive up to Grand Marais for better options. Customer service at our hotel wasn't great but the people at the resort were great. We placed our kids in lessons the first day and they had a great time
Overall it was a great skiing vacation for the entire family. We enjoyed the skiing and the great view of Lake Superior. Can't wait till we get back.

AbstractThe purpose of the project is the development of a computational package for bifurcation analysis and advanced flight control of aircraft. The development of relevant analytical and simulation-based technologies for the prediction and control for fail-safe adaptivity under adverse and upset conditions is an important step in advancing flight safety goals. Impaired aircraft operate much closer to bifurcation points than a fully functional vehicle. Thus, it is necessary to be able to evaluate aircraft and flight control system performance near stability boundaries. Understanding behavior near operational limits and developing control and recovery strategies for these circumstances is fundamental to achieving that goal. To that end TSi proposes an integrated set of computing tools involving symbolic, numerical and visualization environments. In phase I, the architecture was validated using a benchmark problem. Phase II proposes the extension of the results from Phase I into a commercial package to be made available to the analyst/designer of fault tolerant control algorithms.

It might seem strange to be talking about snow cover during the heat of summer, but July 1st was "Snow New Year." As most people do at the start of a new year, we're reflecting on events from the past year to understand where we have been and where we might be going.
Blogger Tony Barnston describes how the transition from ENSO-neutral toward La Niña is progressing, and explains why models have become somewhat less bullish on the certainty and strength of the La Niña.
The state of West Virginia was designated a federal disaster area following deadly and destructive floods on June 23, 2016. Rainfall in some counties exceeded 24-hours totals that the National Weather Service described as a 1-in-a-thousand-year event.

No-Bake Frozen Margarita Pie is cool and creamy, with a salty-sweet pretzel crust and a frosty filling flavored with fresh lime juice, tequila, and triple sec…or leave out the liquor and boost the lime juice for a family-friendly variation! Well, we've apparently reached the height of summer, with temps topping 100 degrees just about every day. Bring on all the cold things! Alas, this also means it's too hot to play outside past a certain hour of the morning without {Read More}
No-Bake Frozen Margarita Pie
Bacon, Potato, & Cheese Mini Frittatas (Egg Muffins)
Savory Bacon, Potato, & Cheese Mini Frittatas feature fluffy eggs loaded with crispy diced bacon, hash browns, and grated cheddar and baked in muffin pans for a filling and protein-packed breakfast or brunch! A few weeks ago I found myself the happy recipient of two dozen gorgeous, farm-fresh eggs. I knew that I didn't want to simply add them to random baked goods…rather, I wanted them to star in a new and special recipe. So — since the natives had {Read More}
Peach Buttermilk Popsicles
With just four ingredients, Peach Buttermilk Popsicles are fruity, creamy, frozen treats, kissed with honey and balanced with a touch of buttermilk tang! Last week, my hubby and I were lucky enough to enjoy a long weekend get-away to Vail, sans kids. He was already in Denver for work, so I flew up on Saturday and we spent the next few days enjoying fresh mountain air and perfect — I mean perfect — weather. What's funny is that the majority {Read More}
Lemon Sugar Baked Donuts
Lemon Sugar Baked Donuts are light, citrusy, and generously coated in a crunchy, lemon-zest infused sugar…the perfect sunny treat for breakfast or dessert! The food blogger side of me is a little embarrassed to admit that I'm decidedly late to the baked donut craze, having only bought my first donut pans a month or so ago. But now that I've had a bit of time to bake and experiment, I can confidently tell you…baked donuts are where it's at, y'all. {Read More}
Corn, Tomato, & Avocado Salad
Corn, Tomato, & Avocado Salad is an explosion of Tex-Mex flavors and summertime textures, with fresh roasted corn, juicy tomatoes, creamy avocado, minced jalapeño, crumbled cotija cheese, and fresh cilantro in a zippy lime vinaigrette! There's something just magical about fresh corn on the cob. I have to admit, though, that I used to mostly avoid it because it was such a sticky, frustrating mess to husk. That all changed a couple of years ago when I discovered the easiest, {Read More}
Chocolate Almond Energy Bites
Ground almonds and oats are combined with almond butter, honey, cocoa powder, and chia seeds in these wholesome, protein-packed Chocolate Almond Energy Bites, perfect for a quick snack or breakfast on-the-go! My kids are eating me out of house and home this summer, y'all. My boys are only 6 and 8, but geez does this feel like foreshadowing to their teen years. I try to feed them homemade breakfasts as often as possible, but I can barely keep the fridge {Read More}
Caprese Chicken Salad
Caprese Chicken Salad combines two summertime favorites, featuring juicy tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and fresh basil tossed with diced chicken in a homemade, Greek yogurt-based balsamic dressing. Happy Friday, y'all…hope the week has treated you well! We've been enjoying July while doing our best to survive Texas' current heat wave…which feels akin to opening a hot oven or, you know, skipping across the surface of the sun. But enough chit-chat about the weather. I'm way excited to share today's recipe with {Read More}
Fruit & Mozzarella Skewers with Honey Lime Drizzle
Honeydew melon, green grapes, kiwi fruit, & fresh mozzarella are dressed up with a sweet & tangy syrup in these Fruit & Mozzarella Skewers with Honey Lime Drizzle, a fun & healthy summer kabob that's delicious for poolside, picnics, or parties!

In addition to grilled {Read More}
Peach Crisp Bars
A buttery shortbread crust is topped with sweet, ripe peaches and an oat-flecked crumble in these delicious, easy-to-assemble Peach Crisp Bars! Aren't peaches the best thing ever? Each summer, I take ample advantage of them while they're abundant, incorporating them into breakfasts and snacks and drinks and desserts and eating them fresh by the bushel. My family especially loves peach cobbler, but sometimes it's nice to change things up a bit — or even enjoy the occasional hand-held peach treat. {Read More}
Chicken Enchilada Casserole
With all-natural ingredients like salsa verde, green chiles, and a creamy homemade sauce, this scrumptious stacked Chicken Enchilada Casserole boasts the great flavor of chicken enchiladas without the work of rolling them! Sometimes nothing hits the spot like creamy, cheesy enchiladas! So for Father's Day a couple weeks ago, I baked up a double recipe for my husband and my father-in-law to enjoy. But since a big batch of enchiladas would take a good bit of time to roll, I {Read More}
Southern Squash Casserole
Southern Squash Casserole is loaded with tender sauteed yellow squash, cheddar, Parmesan, and sour cream, then topped with buttery cracker crumbs and baked for a delicious, comforting side dish! I'll be the first to admit that yellow summer squash has never been my favorite of the stereotypical Texas garden harvests. However, seeing as how my in-laws have a glorious and abundant stereotypical Texas garden, we end up with lots of it every summer. I like zucchini and have come up {Read More}

Delicately flavored Cucumber Mint Infused Water (with or without lime) is a refreshing drink to keep you cool and hydrated all summer long! Summer has officially arrived, and Texas has suddenly decided to embrace the turning of the seasons. After an unseasonably mild intro to June (thanks, monsoon season), we have now reached our normal summer temps, hovering close to 100°F. And this summer, more than ever before, I have been craving ice cold water! I'll be the first to {Read More}
Herbed Garlic Croutons
Homemade Herbed Garlic Croutons are not only easy to make, but they're a crunchy, flavorful way to jazz up your favorite salad and soup recipes, from Caesar Salad to Tomato Soup! The hubby and I just got home from an anniversary weekend in Scottsdale where we enjoyed sleeping in, lazy days by the pool, prickly pear margaritas by the pitcher, and gluttonous meals morning, noon, and night. It was a fabulous, relaxing get-away, but now that we're back to reality {Read More}

Simple German (Swabian) Potato Salad ~ Schwäbischer Kartoffelsalat
Schwäbischer Kartoffelsalat is a simple German Potato Salad hailing from the Swabian region of Germany that features sliced potatoes, minced onions, hot broth, oil, vinegar, and fresh parsley. It's potato salad season, friends! And seeing as how I've shared recipes for Classic Potato Salad and German Potato Salad (the hot bacon/vinegar kind) in summers past, it's high time I share the traditional type of potato salad found in the region of Germany where my mom grew up and where my {Read More}

Texas Pesto
Traditional pesto gets a Texas twist in this flavorful version featuring toasted pecans and Cotija cheese, perfect for slathering on bruschetta, tossing with pasta, jazzing up veggies, and so much more! Yay for basil! Because my herb garden has it coming out the wazoo, and there's really no way to use it all up before it goes bad without making some big batches of pesto. So here we go! That being said, I realize that there are already approximately eleventy-billion {Read More}
Loaded Banana Muffins
Loaded Banana Muffins start with a moist, soft banana bread base that gets extra flavor and texture from coconut, toasted pecans, and honey-kissed granola sprinkled on top! Okay, all you monkeys out there…get ready to go bananas (sorry) for today's recipe! And if you currently have a pile of splotchy, dark brown bananas sitting on your kitchen counter? You'll love this post, too. Because in both cases, these Loaded Banana Muffins are decidedly different than your everyday banana bread, meaning {Read More}

With their quick assembly and creamy, zesty filling, Baked Chicken Taquitos with Avocado Cilantro Dipping Sauce are guaranteed to be a hit with kids and adults alike! Whether you're looking for a yummy dinner to ring in the weekend, garner enthusiasm from the kiddos, or change up Taco Tuesday (Taquito Tuesday, anyone?), Baked Chicken Taquitos are sure to fit the bill!

Strawberry Baked Oatmeal Cups
Strawberry Baked Oatmeal Cups are loaded with chewy oats, crunchy almonds, sweet coconut, & fresh diced strawberries for a wholesome, perfectly-portioned breakfast ideal for making ahead of time and reheating in the morning! Happy Friday, y'all! How was your Cinco de Mayo? Who's looking forward to Mother's Day? It's been another whirlwind week around here, working on my last (!!!) round of cookbook edits. Hallelujah and amen. I've got a few more days of work ahead but I'm taking off {Read More}
Cherry Vanilla Wine Slushies
Fruity wine slushies are a refreshing way to cool off when the weather heats up, and this Cherry Vanilla version is scrumptious with its juicy dark cherries, sweet Moscato, and hint of pure vanilla! It reeeeally tried to reach 90-degrees around here last week. So I decided that Cherry Vanilla Wine Slushies would be an entirely appropriate way to embrace the rising heat while also celebrating the fact that I'm back to blogging (yaaay!) after my laptop completely kicked the bucket and was {Read More}
Creamy Jalapeño Dip {Chuy's Copycat Recipe}
A base of homemade ranch dressing is flavored with fresh jalapeños, cilantro, and tomatillo salsa in this Creamy Jalapeño Dip, a copycat recipe of the popular appetizer at Chuy's! Happy San Jacinto Day, y'all! In Texas-speak, this date commemorates the 1836 battle during which Texas won its independence from Mexico (take that, Santa Anna). And if that's not reason to celebrate with some Creamy Jalapeño Dip, I'm not sure what is! 😉 I actually decided to share this recipe when {Read More}
Peanut Butter & Honey Cereal Bars
Whole grain toasted oat cereal, chopped nuts, peanut butter, coconut oil, and honey combine for no-bake breakfast bars that also make a tasty snack! Well, my Texas friends…have y'all floated away yet? I realize that some parts of the country are currently experiencing idyllic spring weather, and some of y'all are actually getting snow right now (what the what?). In central Texas, however, these past few days have been peppered with torrential downpours. When it rains, it pours, I suppose…although {Read More}
Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin Mug Cake
Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin Mug Cake is a quick, tasty, single-serving breakfast or dessert treat! So I've come to a conclusion regarding seasonal recipes…lemon is to springtime what pumpkin is to fall. At least it is at my house, because as soon as September hits, I want to pumpkin-ify everything. As for this time of year? I could happily bake and cook with lemons every day. I've waited three long weeks since posting my Lemon Cupcakes with Lemon Cream Cheese {Read More}
Pesto Pasta Salad
Studded with bright green asparagus, sweet peas, decadent bacon, and fresh pearls of mozzarella, Pesto Pasta Salad is a flavorful side dish or light dinner, perfect for spring and summer celebrations! Last week, I got a hankering for pasta salad. It's a warm weather staple around here, and I don't think I've enjoyed it since last September. But I do believe it's high time to change that! Am I the only one who's way excited to say a definitive adios {Read More}
Whole Wheat Greek Yogurt Blueberry Scones
Tender, moist, and bursting with berries, Whole Wheat Greek Yogurt Blueberry Scones are a wholesome spin on a classic breakfast treat…but nobody would ever guess by their delicious, decadent flavor! How's the week been treating you all? It's been a busy one around these parts…one day filled with doctor's appointments and another with volunteering at school.

Stayed at Hotel Mercure Mont Saint Michel in October 2012. The only reason to stay here is to be on the Mont St. Michel side of the new barrier to make going back and forth to the mont extremely easy (we had no problems night and day walking or using the buses - I do recommend bringing a flashlight/torch or camping headlamp though). The bed was also incredibly comfortable. Everything else was terrible. My guess is that this was a roadside motel that the Mercure bought and threw a room over. At least that would explain the lack of elevators, the rickety wooden stairs indoors (they were a real safety concern for us), and the fact that the toilet has an old window facing what is now the inside of the hotel. The worst for us was that the supposedly non-smoking room absolutely stunk. I could actually taste the smoke smell it was so bad. The other problem is noise. There shouldn't be any given the location, but this place seems to be made for tour groups so before sun-up we were treated to the thud of suitcases being thrown into the bus and just after sun-up bus horns blaring, I assume to get the tour groups going. It was a jarring way to start the day.
As terrible as this place was, I would probably stay there again for the location alone. I would just significantly lower my expectations about the comfort level of our stay.
Enjoy the amazing Mont St. Michel!
