Ordc Forum/Blog

Hi Guys. I have added a new category, Occupy*. The star (*) is for all the various occupation targets, i.e. Wall Street, Los Angles, Oakland, 395 and so on. I did this because I think this is a very important phenomenon.

I have also retroactively edited a few posts to add this category.

Just a reminder, if you omit a category for your post, it is assigned the first one on the list by default, in our case "Afghanistan". If you have omitted a category, you may change it retroactively if you are logged in. An "edit" button will appear below your post. You can change anything it it.

Also, please note that I have added two new categories, nuclear power and Fukushima.

I have moved this post up for the benefit of some new bloggers.

I am reposting this for those who may be new to our forum.

Posts which run more than a few paragraphs should be split into a "teaser" intro followed by a link "read more" which leads to the bulk of the post.

To insert the "=>read more" link, select the "Expert" tab above "Post contents". Position the cursor at the break point and click the "!M" box which will insert the link.

Note that anyone may retroactively edit their own posts. Just click the "Posts" tab, to the right of the "write" tab and select the post which you wish to edit. This may include changing categories the post is listed under.

Every post should be assigned a Main and as many secondary categories as seem applicable. If a category is omitted, the first one (alphabetically) on the list, Blog Issues, is assigned.

If one clicks a category (these are listed on the right) all posts assigned to that category will appear.

One can do this retroactively if they forget, but only for their own posts. Click the "Posts" tab which is just right of the "Write" tab.
