Displaying 0 To 0 Of 0 Comments Quite a brilliant and intuitive observation. No wonder I like you, I see how brilliant I am in you. 😉 » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 7:31 pm Our pleasure! And thanks for all of your contributions! » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 11:50 am Nellie, my very thoughts which is why I thought it best to keep this as a private area for development. There are a variety of good reasons to do so including the strong possibility of people lifting/stealing material, parties we’re writing about being aware of what we’re trying to research or write about, etc. Yes, we can and should move the brainstorming here, probably best to do so. However, please pass the word around to members that they can find it here so they don’t think it’s disappeared! » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 10:34 am A HEAD’S UP: This category and the posts in it are restricted from viewing by the public and non-Authors. BTW, If anyone but an Author clicks on a Recent Comment from this category, they still will not be able to view the comment in full or this post. I will update here once I have fixed that, thanks! UPDATE: The Recent Comments widget is fixed!!! Comments here will not appear publicly nor can the general public or non-Authors access the posts and comments here! » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 10:29 am All new members are assigned the role of Contributor. Our policy has been that once a Contributor writes an article that displays their genuine interest in expressing themselves on meaningful issues, they are often promoted to the role of Author. However, as we grow, we may need to limit the number of Authors or the number of Front Page articles we can fairly serve at one time. Ah, the problems that come with success! » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 10:25 am Whoops, forgot to mention how to find it! Will copy this in the post but ProjectPOV can be found under the Authors Cafe heading at the top, just place your cursor on Authors Cafe and ProjectPOV will appear under it, available to be clicked. » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 10:13 am Membership fees (contributions) are voluntary but you do have to wear the PlanetPOV Member beanie…with propeller! » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 10:11 am Welcome to The Planet, LABC63! You are indeed among many colleagues here from HuffPo who also had enough of being spun and censored over there. This is the place for truly Free Expression and thoughtful discussions on any topic. » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 12:28 pm Yeowtch! Sometimes I forget for a moment, reading all your in depth posts and comments, what’s going on! Please, rest and no worries about the feature, when you’re ready will be the perfect time for it, absolutely no rush on this. Glad your heart health is good, does my heart good to hear that! » Posted By AdLib On January 14, 2010 @ 12:05 am What, no female celebrity’s dress slipped and showed part of her nipple? Come on Huffpo, where’s my Nipple News today?! » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 11:22 pm KQ, I saw someone else mention having a regular feature that exposes the bullshit of the MSM spin machines (that includes HP). I think that’s a great idea. Would you or anyone else want to helm that? I’m slammed but I can at least throw out one suggestion for a title, “Stalking Heads”. » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 11:19 pm Resolving Differences in House and Senate Health Bills Cher, your remarkable article is evidenced by the remarkable responses it has inspired. Especially mine. Seriously, excellent and thorough job! As to the points you raise, it would be wise for Obama to back and the Senate to support a nationalized exchange. The Progressives have had the Public Option ripped away from them, this could be at least a modest salve on that wound and not be another unnecessary kowtowing to the insurance corporations. On methods of paying, this seems like a simple one. The wealthy, who have made more money than ever off of destroying health care and our economy pay or the middle class and lower middle class pays. Obama doesn’t seem to recognize that people have to pay their taxes just two months before primary elections. They will indeed remember having to scrape up thousands of dollars to pay taxes (which the wealthy don’t have to pay their fair share of due to offshore banking and loopholes). And the reason for those taxes? They have good health insurance plans. Huh? People should be taxed BECAUSE they have excellent health insurance? That is so messed up! This will undermine Obama if it is the case, the union folk will not donate generously as they did in 2008 since they will have to donate thousands to the IRS instead. There is a possible wild card in passing HCR. If Coakley was to lose Teddy’s old seat in MA to a Repub, they would not have 60 votes in The Senate. Then what? It is possible though not probable that she could lose, she has been losing her lead in polls taken on probable voters. I just wish we had a Senate Leader with balls who would just use the Nuclear Option to get rid of the filibuster, bring democracy back to The Senate and pass the robust health care reform with a Public Option open to all, just as the public wants. » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 11:10 pm No worries, you’re covered by PlanetPOV Post Insurance. The bill for your deductible will be in the mail. 😉 » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 1:36 pm The 7.0 Earthquake in Haiti will be absolutely devastating to the people of this country. Thanks PatsyT! » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 9:49 am No sweat! Check out the FAQ, it has step-by-step instructions on how to post, add graphics, even videos! » Posted By AdLib On January 13, 2010 @ 9:48 am Rashomon 5: Eight Views of Tonight’s Headlines As KQuark calls it, Bankington Post. All they care about is money. Their obsession with Geithner, AIG, Tarp, etc., their lame community bank stunt… As KQ says, how Progressive is only caring about banks and money? » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 10:17 pm I think it may be a conflict with Macs. Anyone else here have a Mac? If so, do you see code or just the checkbox? Anyone on a PC see the paragraph of code? » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 5:27 pm Hmm…you’re on a Mac, right? Anyone else on a Mac here? If so, are you seeing the same thing, a mess of code? » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 5:24 pm The needle and the damage done So sorry! Ouch! Feel better! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 4:06 pm PlanetPOV’s Top Posts of 2009 – The Winners! It’s not wrong or cheating to have spouses or family members voting for you. A side benefit of having something like this event is to interest and attract more people to The Planet. Everyone is welcome to participate here! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 4:31 pm Aw, just because I used the Katherine Harris Accounting Program to tally the votes, people assume the worst. It was interesting that I received more votes on my posts than voters, that’s why I needed this program, counting votes is so complicated. » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 4:02 pm It is a conspiracy. I learned a very important lesson, if you want to win, always try to give an all powerful deity a stake in your winning. » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 3:58 pm Cheers javaz! WHEATENA FOR EVERYONE!!! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 3:57 pm I’m proud and humbled to have people of this caliber choosing to be members here and contribute such thoughtful articles and comments. Thanks for the very kind words, AB! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 3:56 pm Heh! Actually, I got you Wheatena perfume. Mmm, you smell delicious and full of fiber! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 3:03 pm Psst! Even the coffee was rigged! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 3:01 pm Cheers Pashma!!! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 3:00 pm A note to my fellow members, I am honored, humbled and a bit self-conscious about being the winner in multiple categories. Just wanted to mention that 2009 is a bit of an anomalous year. As the first members, the Founders wrote far more articles than anyone else last year thus had more chances. We discussed whether we should recuse ourselves from being nominated but felt that since we are all members of the community here, let the community decide from all the posts here which they wanted to vote for. That’s one reason we asked for members to nominate their and other members’ posts. And, I suppose the butterfly ballot here didn’t help…I didn’t even know that Pat Buchanan wrote an article for The Planet and I must say I’m surprised how many votes he got! » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 2:56 pm Perhaps this free box of Wheatena will change your mind? » Posted By AdLib On January 12, 2010 @ 11:43 am Sometimes a Cigar is Just a Cigar: Sparkman Committed Suicide Cheers bito! » Posted By AdLib On January 16, 2010 @ 8:26 pmComments Posted By AdLib
However, the Recent Comments widget is not working as it should, it is not currently excluding the comments on posts here as it is supposed to. I will fix that shortly but in the meantime, please keep in mind that excerpts from comments here are appearing publicly.
