Welcome to the Freethought Forum

The lofty high Renaissance and marked mannerism. The heavy and ornate Baroque era, followed by the gentle Rococo. Harsh neo-classicism, rich romanticism, lush naturalism, stern realism, blurred impressionism. Heady surrealism, blockish cubism, postwar Dada, pointy-cornered art deco and cookie cutter Bauhaus. Let us skip the dreariness of the past half century and arrive finally at FF Style.

Cardinal, exorcists have differing takes on ‘cleansing’ ritual performed on Mexican president
Cardinal, exorcists have differing takes on ‘cleansing’ ritual performed on Mexican president | Catholic News Agency
Quote:
A Mexican cardinal and three priests, two of them exorcists, have differing takes on the “cleansing” ritual that was performed during the inauguration of the country’s new president, Claudia Sheinbaum.
Sheinbaum, a candidate of the coalition Let’s Keep Making History — which consists of the political parties National Regeneration Movement (MORENA), Labor Party (PT), and Green Ecologist Party of Mexico (PVEM) — was the winner of the June 2 presidential elections. She assumed office on Oct. 1.
Sheinbaum succeeds President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, founder of MORENA who in December 2018 participated in a similar ceremony at the beginning of his term, as head of the Mexican government.
Among the various ceremonies at the inauguration of the first female Mexican president in the capital city’s Constitution Plaza — commonly known as Zócalo — a group of Indigenous women performed a “sacred ceremony” with incense, plants, fruits, and flowers, among other things, all with “their hands raised toward the east, where the sun rises,” according to one of the participants as reported by the Mexican news channel N+.

Recording What Is Saved On Your DVR Cable Box. |

I get my TV channels through a DVR that I rent from my cable company. On which I have quite a number of programs saved. Years ago I used to have one that went bad. Though I could view the programs I had saved on it, it stopped being able to record new programs. I had to get a new DVR from the cable company.
That means all the programs I had saved on my old DVR were lost. I asked the cable company if there was any way to record what was saved on the hard drive of their DVR's. Of course they said there wasn't. All of their programming that you can see on your TV has HDMC protection. Or DRM protection. That is because they want to keep people from being able to save copyrighted programming. But there used to be a time when you could record and save anything you wanted with a VCR. I don't think that the digital age should be allowed to take that ability away from people.
This sent me on a quest to find a way of doing it. Though it took some doing, I did it! I can now record and save to a USB drive anything that my TV is showing. If I choose to, that includes any pay per view movie. In HD. Would you like to know how I did it? I bet you would. And I would tell you. Except for one thing. Just about everybody I have run across at this forum is a god damned troll. Most of whom I put on my ignore list. So you cal all suck it!
