Comments about DSLR Camera and iPad® Backpack:
I received a nice camera as a Christmas gift just before a planned trip to Africa for a mission trip and photo safari. I knew space for luggage would be limited and yet, I needed something that would hold all my photo gear in one easy to access bag. After gathering input from friends, and researching on line for days, I found the DSLR Camera and IPad Backpack. The video demonstration is what convinced me this bag was probably going to be perfect for my needs. I have not been disappointed. This bag is everything I hoped it would be. It is light weight, well balanced, easy to access for quick photo opportunities, and holds all my essentials. I recommend this bag to anyone who will listen. Friends who have seen it also give it the thumbs up.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great product!
By Carol the Web Designer
from Socorro, NM
This bag was an anniversary gift from my husband. I used the bag for the first time on a trip to Niagra Falls. I was able to carry all my camera gear, my tripod, iPad and personal items in this bag. I carry it everyday on the job. Once again, everything I need is in one place!
Great looking bag

stylish and protective camera bag. Just wish the camera section was slightly larger to accomodate 2 extra lenses instead of just 1 extra lens.
Great Product!
By Jason Bourne
from Ventura, CA
I recently used this product for my trip to Monterey, ca. I liked that it wasn't so bulky and that it had room for a water bottle, since I did a lot of walking. I also like that I can easily and quickly access my Nikon without having to open the whole bag. Very user friendly.
Wonderful bag indeed.

Great bindings
Member since
These bindings are awesome. I didn't know bindings could feel this good. Having gone from cheapo rental bindings to these for my first board setup, having your own gear makes a world of difference. Using these, this is the first time I have come away from a snow trip not feeling sore all over my ankles (Can't believe I put up with the pain for so long!). There are no pressures points no matter how tight I do the ratchets up.
The toe conformist strap I was a little dubious about, but upon mounting the bindings on my board and trying them out saw the genius in Rome's design. Given the option of either over the top of the toes or around the ends of the boot, the rubber toe straps stretch over the boot fitting and holding the boot down perfectly. I like to place them somewhere in between over the top of the foot and over the very ends of the toes.
The bottom of the bindings has a rubber layer so it won't scratch the crap out of your board.
Overall, I don't have much to compare against, but these bindings haven't done me any wrong!

i really want to put burton cap straps on these will it work?
Mike Waldert
Member since
Why? The Conformist Toe strap will work "cap-style" (why they call it conformist; you can ride it any way you want) In fact the new Burton style cap strap is a knock off of the Rome design.
I'm 250 and couldn't break them in a week.
Member since
They could offer a night class to teach you how to set them up. Seriously, I read the instructions a couple times before breaking out my number 3 phillips. Once you do it, it's easy. They are just so adjustable. I found them well under 2 bones. Had to try them and I'm glad I did. Size 10 32 TM2's fit the L just perfectly.

wow these look pretty sweet, the adjustability is something ive never seen in a binding, go for these

Love it

Awesome Bindings
Member since
Bought these a week ago and have rode them twice. Mounted them to an '09 Rome Design and couldnt ask for a better powder setup. Rome found a new loyal customer.
highback replaced within days from rome reps!! awesome
Member since
Just an update, customer service is really as good as mentioned. I shot an email off to rome warranty, in a day or so they emailed me back and had a new highback in the mail. fast enough i was able to replace it before my next trip out. I think the first one may have broke from having it mounted awkwardly because when i installed the new one, I tried to mount it the same way the original was in, and it was a really weird fit, so I adjusted it to fit with a bit of rotation and its smooth now. Very happy now, and would buy Rome again.

Member since
I wear '09 Burton Rulers in size 9. What size Targa binding should I get? Andrew: Some people complain about to0 much room on each side w/ size 9 & the M/XL. Have you heard the same? I feel like the S/M would be fine except the toe strap digs into my pinky toe rather than wrapping around it. I have the M/XL, but don't want to ride them until I'm sure.
Down Under
Member since
I would go the M/XL even adjusted out you may find the S/M to restrictive, especially if you wanted to go to a thicker boot at some point. With the amount of adjustments available on the Targa's go the larger size and adjust down
Will these mount on my salomon pulse ?

yep no problem. They have a universal mounting disc.
Broke right highback first day out
Member since
I too broke the right highback on my first day out with them , and I wasnt going crazy either. Sent in some pics and stuff to rome warranty, hopefully , like the other guy here, they will get back to me quickly, if they do Ill repost. Otherwise, kinda bummed out for buying the most high end binding from rome to have that happen.

Member since
You are going to want to get the XL's
Targas - Don't waste your money
Member since
Well, I loved these bindings until I broke the metal frame supporting the heel cup..on BOTH bindings so it's not a manufacturing defect. These bindings ride great which explains the good reviews but I bet most of these reviewers haven't spend 50 hard days in them. I only weigh 155 lbs but I ride hard and I ride for 6 hrs a day 3 to 4 days a week. Not good for anyone who really gets with it...backcountry, steeps, butters and hits. I recommend this binding for posers and gapers only.
Member since
I've ridden with burton and k2, these bindings don't even compare to those. You can adjust pretty much everything, they're extremely solid and they look tight as hell too. The response is amazing. Best bindings I've ever owned. Cop a pair!
Super Comfy and Adjustible
Member since
So yeah, these bindings are super comfy and look sick. You can adjust pretty much everything on them too. You can do them nice and tight without any pressure points on your foot. My only gripe with them is that there is a peice of material on the outside of the ankle strap that catches almost every time i do the ratchet up. It's pretty annoying.
What sound does a Targa-bird make? Tweak Tweak!
Alex L
Member since
Overall, these are rugged bindings with great response and power, fairly good board feel, and ultimate adjustability. Unlike my Customs, which are great for park and pipe but squirrely like a Fiat on a logging road when bombing moguls or AK lines, or my Ride RXs which feel like Im wearing ski boots nailed to cinderblocks cuz theyre so stiff, the Targas can be tweaked from one end of the flextrum to the other without sacrificing performance.
My only complaints are that they only come in two sizes and my size 9 boots fall right in the middle (the S/M just barely fits) and that the autostrap should be called the uselesscrap cuz thats about how useful it is. Neither of these issues will detract from your overall satisfaction with these bindings though if youre only gonna own one binding for the rest of your life, these will do you just how you like to be done kinda like that skanky chick from last weekend.
these bindings look sick!
Member since
i thank all of you guys for ur reviews these bindings would look sick with the ride kink 152 cm i a m picking upo for next season...thanks all
Great, but fragile...
Member since
I bought my Targas at the end of the 2007/2008 season and rode them once last season on my last day out. This season, I've ridden them about four times, and half of those times, something broke.
The first thing was the toe strap. It was a really cold day, and hopping off of the chair i stepped on the toe strap, and it snapped right in half! I went to strap in and saw my strap sliding down the slope. So, that day was pretty much a wash and a board tech fixed it with a file down burton toe ladder.
The second thing was the right high back (I ride regular). I did about three or four runs, got down to the chair lift and went to fold down the high back, and it had snapped right in half! I mean are you s**tting me? How does that happen? Maybe it was defective, but I'm just not so sure.
Rome customer service has been very helpful, though, and I had replacements for both parts within about a week. I will give them one more chance, but if something else breaks, I will go back to Ride bindings, which I've never had problems with.
Sick Bindings
Member since
I hooked these up on my gnu chb mtx. They are extremely responsive. I rode them in 16 inches of powder and on groomers, on both of which i had total control. The ability to change from toes to heels was almost instant. They are just really really responsive. The question of "are they durable?" Yes. I dont know how that guy broke his because I slammed the terrain park and pretty much did all i could to break them and they are still holdin strong. Very well priced too. My two favorite things about these bindings are how easy they are to get in an out of and the toe strap. Ratcheting is cake. Its really cool as well, when you ratchet in, the strap comes up across your foot but is hidden behind a piece of material so that it doesnt get in your way. To get out you pop them off like its nothin. Like i said i also like the toe strap. I forget how it is made, but when it comes over your toe it stretches real nice and holds you in nice and tight. it doesnt squeeze your toe either like some other bindings ive had. All in all i recommend these things, i have ridden lots of stuff and these are by far my favorites. look sick too haha
Great, but...
Member since
Well, they are definitely customizable. I've only ridden them once, and spent the day tweaking them just right. And now that I'm on here writing this review I see that 3 days ago someone mentioned that they're awesome but he/she broke one of the bindings. That's exactly what I'm worried about. They are made of a pretty weak-feeling plastic. I have my front binding's highback rotated 4 degrees and I'm nervous. I don't even want to imagine how weak a 12 degree warped highback might be. But until they break, I think I'm going to love them!
be gentle
Member since
used to have burtons. these ride ten times better. but only the second time out i snapped one in half.... not very strong. ride them easy

text: Feb27 citiestrafficChinapredictive analyticsnew intelligenceenergyinternet of thingssmart grid 'Smart' cities aim to predict — and manage — traffic future | Greenbang The "internet of things," as the smart grid is often called, entails making our lives, homes and cities more efficient by connecting all the pieces with networking technology and applying advanced strategies like "big data" analytics to better understand how all the pieces interact. The analogy to the computing internet, though, isn't entirely applicable. For one, the internet of things is aimed not only at making our systems work better and smarter, but to actually help predict the future. Consider that bane of metropolitan motorists everywhere, for example: the city traffic jam. Where the traditional response has been to build new roads, expand mass transit or institute congestion pricing, smart technology aims to help predict bottlenecks before they occur and manage traffic accordingly to prevent jams. Look at what IBM is currently doing in the Chinese city of Zhenjiang. Using its Intelligent Operations Center for Smarter Cities, Big Blue aims to help the city of three million use analytics to not only enable real-time bus monitoring and management, but to simulate traffic flow patterns ahead of time. By anticipating traffic problems before they happen, IBM's Intelligent Transportation technology is designed to improve the city's public transit system and "increase traffic throughput" … in other words, make it possible for more traffic to flow through streets without the need to build more roads or otherwise radically change the existing infrastructure. "(W)e will make our public transportation system faster and more efficient, while making our city a better place to live in," said Mingnian Yin, director of Zhenjiang's Reform Commission. Permalink

Reader Tip: Register Your Spices
Holiday baking leads many of us to reach for spices that have spent most of the year far, far away in the dark corners of the cupboard. Others of us are stocking up on spices that we don't normally use, like mace and anise.
Are you wondering if the old spices from your cupboard or even the new ones from the store that you want to use in your gingerbread are still fresh? Old, musty spices will be noticeably weaker and less flavorful, even in baked goods.
Reader Shawnna tells us that spice manufacturer Spice Islands offers a free spice registration tool on their website. If you have any Spice Islands brand spices in your cupboard, you can check their age and freshness by entering the product code through the website.
Click to see it in action...
You can also register for emails to notify you when your spices are about to expire. To check it out for yourself go to the Spice Registration at Spice Islands.
Too bad this doesn't work for other brands of spices; we have a big mix in our cupboards. Remember that the only way to make sure you're getting truly fresh spices is to grind them yourself - not as daunting of a proposition as you might think. Fresh ground cinnamon is a revelation!

McCormick's site also has a feature that let's you check the expiration of your spices, fyi.
I often wonder about expiration dates. One tends to find them more and more on things that don't really expire. I wonder if manufacturers aren't counting on us throwing things out so we can make new purchases and increase their revenue. Or have I become too cynical.
It seems to me a more green solution than tracking and replacing spices that have been sitting around for a while, would be to add a bit more of it to the stew? I rarely measure spices anyway, I add to taste.
I always put labels on top of my spice jar lids. It makes them easier to find because I store my spices in a lower cupboard. Plus, I can add little notes such as where and when I bought the spices.
Consumerist (I believe) ran an article with this recently. A reader found that quite a few of the spices sold at a newly opened grocery store near their home were already expired according to the website. I'm not sure how much I trust the website, as it seems likely that the company would want to tell you that something was expired to get a higher turnover of product. I usually trust my own experience with spices as an indicator of how fresh they are and tend to use whole spices that I grind myself.
Mc Cormick has that too
penzey's has a spice guide in their catalog-
basically, ground spices last one year, whole spices 2.
you should store spices in a dark, cool place (i store most of mine in the fridge)
when I buy big bags of spices, I keep most of them in the fridge with a small jar of them in my spice cabinet.
I mark all my spices with when I bought them, and reorder them twice a year, but then I cook a lot.
I also almost always buy the smallest amount possible except for a few spices- oregano, cinnamin, basil, cumin, pepper.
penzey's has better spices then at grocery stores, as well.

One of the Trust's most delightful medieval buildings, enhanced by a cottage garden
Acquired in 1903, this unusual and atmospheric 14th-century yeoman's farmhouse is the Trust's first built property in Cornwall. With a famously wavy slate roof and over 600 years of history it beckons the curious to explore.
The name dates from the Victorian period when it briefly held a licence to be the letter receiving station for the district.
Come and see items on display including Victorian postal equipment, a selection of samplers and furniture dating back to the 16th century. Retreat from the busy high street in our beautiful back garden.

Brooks Pure Connect- Super-light barefoot-style shoes can leave overpronators (translation: those of us who over-roll our feet when they smack the ground) aching for a cozy cushion. The split toes on the 7.2 oz. Brooks Pure Connect runners add overpronation-overcoming stability, without padding on the pounds.
MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoes- Snowshoes or no shoes, if you step into a patch of soft slush, you're likely to sink like MySpace's traffic. The MSR Lightning Ascent snowshoes have optional flotation tails that keep you afloat, even on perilous powder.
Brooklyn Cruiser- Yeah, we love drooling over $8,000 carbon-fiber, nano-infused bikes as much as anybody. But honestly, most of the time you just want a reliable ride that'll get you where you're going without turning you into a Dateline-esque target of temptation for criminals. That's why we're loving the Huffy- cheap, crazy-comfy Brooklyn Cruiser. Think of it as the lazy man's ride—not only is it shipped to your door 90 percent assem¬bled, but it also does away with that gear-changing cable bikers love to hate (the shifting mech¬anism is built into the pedals).
Polk Audio UltraFit 3000- Sports headphones are designed to withstand the sort of sweat and abuse that would make your everyday buds weep. But that durability comes at a price—lo-fi sports 'phones can make Kanye sound like karaoke. The Polk Audio UltraFit 3000 in-ear-canal headphones are the rare pair that feature decent-sounding decibels. In other words: You won't want to leave these in the locker room.
Santa Cruz Homer- Woo-hoo! Finally, a skateboard crafted in the graven image of Springfield's finest nuclear-safety inspector. The superwide Santa Cruz Homer sports dual pics of the yellow one—a buttoned-up professional Homer on top and a party-time one on bottom (no tie!). Transparent sprayed-on grip tape lets the eye candy pop. Mmmm, sprayed-on grip tape.
Wilderness Systems Ride 115- Get off your ass! Stand-up paddling is seriously relaxing and a seriously great workout. Problem is, the balance needed to keep you from face-flopping usually requires a mega-long board or kayak. The Wilderness Systems Ride 115 is the first sub-12-foot kayak that's safe for stand-up paddling. More portability! Less wasted garage space!
Motored Board- Surfing is awesome. Wading out to far-off waves? Not so much. The WaveJet short board saves your energy for things that really matter (like mid-trick cowabunga hands!). The secret: a battery-powered motor that effortlessly scoots would-be Spicolis out to the heavies. After all, you can't slay a giant if you can't get to it first.
Unique Sports Rolback Net- The Rolback Net is designed for the lazy kid who doesn't have a lot of friends (or the lazy kid who does have a lot of friends, but who are all equally lazy and not inclined to chase stray balls). If your social anxiety prevents you from joining the team, the rolback allows you to entertain yourself for hours in the driveway in ways that don't involve sucking fumes from the tailpipe through a hose.
Road Shoe I.D. Pouch- The Road I.D. shoe pouch is for the runner who wants to lose weight, but not their valuables, during their jog. Keep your keys, driver's license, spare change and maybe even a joint in this handy compartment that attaches to
your shoelaces, then wonder why your keys, driver's license, spare change and maybe even your joint all seem to have a slight fungal infection that smells faintly of cheddar.
Sports Illustrated The Baseball Book Expanded Edition- In the continuing saga of Sports Illustrated's excellent sports books, the leaders in sports journalism present an extended play of The Baseball Book from 2006. This new 326-page edition is a revision of the original and brings the first book – a New York Times best-seller – up to date.
It even includes that time you managed not to throw up after eating a ballpark hot dog, probably (it doesn't).
NHL Lawn Gnome- They say hockey is a niche sport and that being so, it can be lonely for the fan whose friends aren't into puck. Well, for $49.99, you can get a genuine NHL lawn gnome perfect for planting down next to your inflatable chair
during tailgating. It's like having a friend that you don't really have! A short-and-indefinably-creepy friend who somehow still manages to be staring at you even after you turn him to face the wall.
Neon Sports Sign- For years, man has obsessed over the classic neon sports sign while women have failed to understand that obsession. If your apartment doesn't scream "hopeless bachelor" already, this trinket will certainly do the trick! Best part, it's available in every team imaginable. Alternatively, have Nickelback blaring from the windows while you sit on the front lawn in your underpants, eating macaroni out of a can. That'll do the trick.
Pangea Panini Press- Nothing screams "Psycho Super-Fan" like a sports franchise crested sandwich (or kidnapping Nick Mangold). For that specific reason, Pangea and Major League Baseball have paired to create a Panini press with the obsessed in mind. This should be considered a creative alternative to getting a sports logo tattoo! It should also be considered a murder weapon in the wrong hands.

Pretty good vaccuum
This review is from: Black & Decker PAV1200W 12V Automotive Pivoting Hand Vacuum
Pros: Nice and small, cleans sand and dust, works as expected.
Cons: If it was a little bit thinner I could've put it in a trunk to the spare section, now it does not fit, has like an extra 1/3 inch.
Other Thoughts: That's my first car-vac, so did not know what to expect. Was not disappointed. Helps me keep the car clean even when kids come back from a park or a beach.

Super Clean!
This review is from: Black & Decker PAV1200W 12V Automotive Pivoting Hand Vacuum
Pros: Great car vacuum! plenty of power for a small car vacuum. Comes with a bag to store everything in your trunk. The neck of the vacuum can extend and rotate to get into most small places in your car. It is powered by your 12v port. The vacuum has a washable filter and a dial you can turn to get dirt off the hard plastic filter.
Cons: NONE
Other Thoughts: I am part of a car club and if I need a quick vacuum for a car show this does the trick.

Francesca Amari
Secretly Square
Tom Rolla
Tom Rolla's Gardenia
Francesca Amari, a pert bundle of vocal dynamite, performs the songs she preferred listening to growing up — what she calls her "guilty pleasures" — describing the act of revealing these secrets as "something like attending an AA meeting but with a two-drink minimum." Never trying to imitate the original artists, Amari simply reflected the joys of their unique sounds as she put her own spin on each song.
Johnny Mathis, one of her personal favorites, is represented here by a wonderful "Wonderful, Wonderful" (Sherman Edwards/Ben Raleigh) and "Chances Are" (Al Stillman/Robert Allen) — sung, as with all the songs, in arrangements that don't stray far from the fondly remembered originals.
Amari demonstrated nice phrasing on a pair of Neil Sedaka songs — "Love Will Keep Us Together" and "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do" (both written with Howard Greenfield). She expressed youthful exuberance with "Fame" (Dean Pitchford/Michael Gore) and saluted disco with a Copa medley that consisted of "I Go to Rio "(Peter Allen/Adrienne Anderson), "Blame It on the Bossa Nova" (Barry Mann/Cynthia Weill) and Barry Manilow/Jack Feldman/Bruce Sussman's "Copacabana."
It was nice to hear Roger Miller's "King of the Road" again after all these years, with Amari joined by pianist Shelly Markham on the second chorus. Markham did a remarkable job throughout the show of providing subtle but effective accompaniment; and, when asked to perform one of his own guilty pleasures, sang Billy Joel's "If I Only Had the Words to Tell You," with exuberance and style.
Also joining Amari to share her own guilty pleasure was Andrea Marcovicci, stepping out of the audience to recall her folk-song days in the mid-1970s — "before I became the queen of cabaret," she joked — with a head-swinging, hair-tossing version of Peter Allen's "Somebody Beautiful Just Undid Me."
Amari also put her own simple, evocative spin on "I Honestly Love You" (Peter Allen/Jeff Barry) and camped it up a bit on "Xanadu" (Jeff Lynne) — a song that elicited some friendly groans from the audience, perhaps because Amari had hit on one of its own collective guilty pleasures.
The show's powerful opening number combined "I've Heard That Song Before" (Jule Styne/Sammy Cahn) — dipping back into the 1940s — with "One of Those Songs ("…that you hear now and then…"). (Gerard Calvi/Will Holt), with echoes of "Sing" (Joe Raposo), the last of which also was Amari's closing song.
The show was directed by Clifford Bell, with musical direction by Markham, based on a show originally directed by Barry Kleinbort with musical direction by Christopher Denny.

The triathlon is a multi-stage competition involving the completion of three sequential activities which most often are swimming, biking and running. Triathlons are held all over the world, in all different environments and conditions, with a variety of distances. NBP's massive 600 acre land plot, with the inclusion of a shell loop trail, a 15ft wide asphalt trail wrapping around the entire circumference and a 2000+ meter lake, proves to be the perfect location for a triathlon event. Landscapes perfectly designed to surround the course only aid in the perfection of this remarkable course. Athletes will have the opportunity to train and race in a safe, controlled, state of the arch environment.

Many mamas spend their pregnancies dreaming of lil tutus only to be shocked when their doctor declares, "It's a boy!"

ESCONDIDO (CNS) - Four suspected drunken drivers were arrested at a checkpoint in Escondido, a police lieutenant said Sunday.
About 1,265 drivers passed through the checkpoint near Centre City Parkway and Decatur Way Saturday night, Escondido police Lt. Tom Albergo said.
In addition to the four arrested for suspicion of drunken driving, officers cited 18 unlicensed drivers, five without insurance and three with a suspended license, Albergo said. Nine vehicles were impounded.
Officers also passed out educational material on the costs associated with a drunken driving arrest, the lieutenant said.
Officers were also assigned to a roving patrol throughout the city until 3 a.m., he said.
The operation was funded by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Ke$ha, Ne-Yo , Sean Kingston , Conor Maynard and Rita Ora are among the artists scheduled to perform on MTV's Club NYE 2013 , the channel's New Year's Eve special. The dance party, which will usher in 2013, will air from New York City's Times Square on December 31, starting at 11 p.m. ET.
"New Year's Eve is the one night of the year where everyone leaves their inhibitions at the door and comes together in a sweaty, drunken, dance-fueled orgy of bliss," says Ke$ha, adding, "No one throws a party like MTV and I'm gonna be on hand to make sure it kicks ass."
Co-hosting the event will be Jersey Shore faves Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Jenni "JWOWW" Farley , along with comedian Jeff Dye from Money from Strangers . Snooki agrees that MTV always has "the sickest performances and you never know what will happen or who will show up." On Snooki's wishlist for the event? A "leopard bedazzled microphone."
Fans can check out MTV.com for pre-party activities and updates.
