I see what you mean...just a shortcut, no URL, not even in the properties although the URL does show up on hover.  So, just let the shortcut do it's job. Clicking it still gets you where you want to go right?...and you get the nice favicon graphic to boot!

Create a folder called Whatever in your favorites. Find something you like, click Ctrl+D to save it as a favorite in that folder. Browse to C:\Users\YourUsername\Favorites\Whatever. Enjoy.

Then you're in the minority.
I had always been a fan of this site - until they changed it. And from what I can see, most people don't like it either.
The format is horrible. Giant pictures instead of links intermingles with relelvent photos. Also, damn near everything is a video - which means sitting through countless ads just to see some news.
Another thing - it's REALLY slow. It used to be a decent site, now sucks

How odd: don't see it like that and has plenty of snap on my browser.

Florida, California, Texas; in that order, the three crazy states.

I would put CA first and FL second but that's because I lived in FL for 27 years.
I would agree TX is getting there, I was stopped on my way back to FL through TX and me and my vehicle searched for drugs because I have very long hair. The probable cause was my GPS, located under my mirror was distracting my view. I traveled 6K miles in one month through a dozen or more states and had no problems.

I still find it astounding that in a land with so many "freedoms", including police who can draw firearms and handcuff people to simply speak with them, that the police still lack a basic right to randomly intercept people without inventing some kind of "probable cause"... Fascinating on so many levels.

Well if you read the entire article there is a lot more sense in the actions of the police and local authorities, than is at first apparent.

I read the article and I disagree. The cops had observed the gathering for nearly a year and done nothing. Someone in office wanted it stopped, and forced the cops to act (wrongly). They should have arrested the homeless people that were a nuisance (drunk in public, relieving themselves in the park, etc.), rather than kicking out the act of generosity and punishing good citizens.
The article also notes that one of those 'homeless' were now working with the couple as a 'pay it forward' volunteer. What is wrong with re-habilitating homeless people into helpful and generous citizens?
Truth is, the politicians and cops don't want to put those people in jail, because then they have to pay for the meals, clothes, lodging, etc.
Cops aren't heartless. I bet they were happy to see the street people being helped. I guarantee someone forced their hand because they didn't want to see the homeless people enjoying 'their' park.
