Robert N. McManus replied to LShieldes's discussion States Rights in the group The Great Debate"No, official, state-sanctioned, one religion for all has ever resulted in anything but the decline of the state and the religion."
Robert N. McManus replied to Michael D. Denny's discussion More Healthcare crap in the group The Great Debate"Aside from who wins or loses politically, talk about the overall decency to take care of those who really need help. I have a great insurance policy provided my employer, my costs are fairly low. But when I receive the statement for a service,…"
Robert N. McManus commented on Herb Munson's group The Great Debate"For J.A.Hamlin, found the truth of this when I began my nursing career. Think about inserting a sharp object into another person's arm while they squirm, jerk, yell, and question your legitimacy. Placing an IV was initially a source of some…"
Robert N. McManus replied to Jeremy Anderberg's discussion Fiction for Men -- Need Your Recommendations!"Let's add John D. McDonald; Travis McGee is as fine a character as ever hit the page. For more classical work, Dashiell Hammet and Raymond Chandler are very fine reads for a well-rounded man. And for goodness sake, try on some Shakespeare - you…"

The Great Debate
"Iron sharpens iron." A place for men to impact each other by debate and exchange of ideas. This is a group where no ideas are off limits. If your motto is, "I never talk about politics or religion," this group is probably not for you. A "gym" for thinkers.See More

Moonset Over Bruxelles
"I like your work. Are you able to do painting full-time? I enjoy drawing in pencil, some ink-work, but I do not have a folio; it is a stress reliever for me. Music is my main addiction, the enjoyment of all kinds, whacking on strings a bit."
Errol R. Alger left a comment for Robert N. McManus"OK, thanks. I remember now -- knew I had heard about it. I've actually been there for a choir rehearsal once or twice some years ago. My wife and I have been going to St. Andrews Evangelical Church Just off I-20 & Broad River Road."
Robert N. McManus replied to LShieldes's discussion Surface in the group Geeks"OK, I am a bit excited about the Surface having followed development since I first read about it. I am also a Windows-kinda guy, but I will hold back until the inevitable bugs are identified/dealt with. Any new device, especially this different,…"
Robert N. McManus commented on Will's group New Warriors"I am aware of similar efforts to get in touch with who we want to be as men; applauding these efforts,I am still leery of the group effort for such an individual search and realization, perhaps wary of groupthink being more influential than is…"

The ISO depends on how dark it is, the aperture and what you want to achieve. I generally go as low as possible to reduce noise in the image. The above images are;

3. ISO 3200
This one is an ISO 200 taken at f18…"
Chuck Knight replied to Daniel's discussion Casual Belts for Jeans?"Just as you loosely match the colors, brown for brown, etc...you loosely match the metals as well.
