What do you guys think of the new Rebooted Spiderman Costume???
Spoiler ahead!!!:
Looks like Spidey is gay. :lmao
I think this movie will be a big let down. I didn't like the previous version too. But that's just me.
I can't say I like the new suit either, But that's just because I'm Old School. I can't really judge it until I see how it is in the movie. Maybe it'll work maybe it won't.

yeah, im kind of ehh about
this movie, because they
already had an original before it...
i dont normally like reboots. That's just me...its
just really weird sometimes. however, i didnt
like the original that much. I liked the first one though.
i saw it when i was like 5 or something.
I Fight Giant Robots
I'm looking forward to this (can't be any worse than Spidey 3), anyways a closer look at the new costume.
Jesus respawned in 3 days.....
Now that's lag.
bootleg teaser trailer...
Mehh. Like the old costume better. This one makes him look like a fag.

They can kiss my fudgin ass with this one. Wont be seeing it.
Looks great and should be more truer to the original comics where Raimi's movies felt like they were based on "Ultimate Spider-Man" while this is based on the original comics where Gwen Stacy was the original love before MJ. Glad we have Lizard in this movie and that the webshooters are his original merchanical and not organic.
Who wants Electro and Black Cat in a sequel?
"I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I expect the same from them."
-John Wayne (The Shootist)
Or maybe Craven and Scorpion would do the trick
Amazing Spider-Man director Marc Webb has already said he doesn't want to retread territory covered in Sam Raimi's recent Spider-Man trilogy. But has he gone so far as to make fundamental changes to the origin tale?
The latest rumor making the rounds, courtesy of Devin Faraci over at Badass Digest, is that Peter Parker's father actually engineered some of those Spider powers before his death, nixing the classic happenstance super-spider bite angle.
"Three sources have told me this, but I held it. I didn't see the point in running it now, when the movie has been shot and edited and is ready to go. Nothing can be changed. But then the new trailer hits today and all but spells this out, so what the hell, here we go," he wrote. "Spider-Man's origin has been changed in The Amazing Spider-Man. The spider bite no longer gives Peter powers, it rather activates something already in his genetic structure. Something placed there by his father. Peter Parker is no longer super-powered by chance, but rather by design."
"You know why the departures and the arrivals at LAX are on separate levels? So the 30,000 heartbreakers that come here each month don't notice the 30,000 that are leaving with their hearts broken."
Not on MB.com, but I'm sure on some forum on some remote corner of the Internet, there are Spider-fans that are furious, sharpening their pitchforks as we speak.Originally Posted by Bayhem
Webb = small target.
Bay = large, easy target. (practically parody at this point to get so oddly worked up, if it isn't for web hits)
Plain and simple, and it has been for years now.
It's got decent to good reviews now.
Anyone thinks it will be as good as Avengers? and i hear a rumor that an avenger might be in the sequel since Marvel now has a movie universe of it's own
I just went to watch this yesterday. Pretty good flick. Well it's not as good as the Avengers movie or any of the individual avenger film, but it's definitely better than the previous Spider-man movies. I love how they gave Spidey a comedic character (it's more comic accurate that way). And Gwen Stacey tops Mary Jane big time.
I saw it last night and what a cool reboot this one was, Spider-Man was funny at last and Lizard was cool. I hope Mysterio, Kraven with Punisher outta be in the sequel or have a cameo by Tony Stark.
it was a good movie and i enjoyed it, but felt it was a little 2 long and felt slow at times.. i think it was better than the last 3, but not something i can watch again.
I watched it last night. I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Course the Character I was looking forward to seeing the most was the Lizard.

After such a long time not going to the cinema i finally went to see this movie..
And it was great! so much better then the previous Spider-man movies! I loved this cast! They REALLY did a great job with the cast! Excellent, well picked all of them, this spider-man was a pleasure to watch didn't really had that with Toby.. This blonde girl is so cute too really liked her, great acting all all action was sweet, well done i really wanna see a next one just like this.
The movie was great but unfortunately these types of movies draw certain freakin irritating Moroccans into the theater and were laughing in a really dumb way (almost like a mongol you would say..) with everything super loud.. when there was nothing happening on the screen to when there were romantic scenes, to dramatic scenes, to the doctor holding a syringe in a scene the a-hole would go like "what is that doctor bhaha.." -_- freakin irritating sh*t i swear to god.. -_- the whole damn movie it was like this.. I managed to focus to most of the movie though..
The blonde girl was really cute really enjoyed her on the screen but u also saw Tia Texada from 3rd Watch (tv series which was a great show!) was awesome! Plus i really liked seeing her get it.. and she still looked really good! which was great but seriously, great movie loved watching it 5x times better then previous Spider-Man movies.
And i wanna see Emma Stone back again of course those socks looked really nice on her hihi
That web in the sewer was good thinking, just like a real spider would.

Spornette Italian Collection Boar Rounder
Mabel M MilleGainesville Florida AreaSpornette Rounder HairbrushThe hairbrush actually brushed the hair instead of sliding along the outer surface of the hair. The hairbrush also penetrated the hair down to the scalp allowing you to massage your scalp to get an all over good feeling. Being able to brush the hair and scalp, being able to feel the circulation was a delightful change. Almost all hair brushes merely do nothing. Was a delightful and satisfying surprise. A worth while investment. ;posted May 19, 2008Link to this post

"The problem is that people who are desperate are very vulnerable when dealing with lenders," said Wu.
A common alternative to refund anticipation loans are refund anticipation checks. Refund anticipation checks typically cost between $30 and $55, and some businesses tack on additional fees that can be as much as hundreds of dollars. Typically, a lender sets up a one-time bank account where a refund can be deposited, and then a check or prepaid card is issued to a consumer so they can access the cash.
This is often an attractive option for taxpayers without bank accounts, but it doesn't help consumers get their refunds any faster than if they were to open a bank account or prepaid card on their own -- which they could do for free.
"If they have a bank account they can get their refunds just as fast doing direct deposit and e-filing (their taxes). And if they don't have a bank account, now would be a good time to open a savings account and use that to get their refund," she said.
Some tax preparers also offer refund anticipation checks to allow customers to postpone tax preparation fees until the refund arrives. But Wu said especially for low-income customers, there are many free tax preparation options available, like the IRS's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program.

ALBANY, N.Y. -- During the height of the housing crisis in 2009, the state created a program to keep foreclosures from ruining neighborhoods. Arbor Hill has a comeback story because of that financial equity, along with some sweat-equity.
Eight foreclosed properties are now 23 apartments for rent.
Mayor Jerry Jennings says Albany was one of the first cities to take advantage of the "Neighborhood Stabilization Program." He says the $4.5 million project is a perfect blueprint for the rest of the state.
Leaders with Albany's Affordable Housing Authority agree.
Some apartments are still available at the Clinton Avenue and Ten Broeck Street properties.

Canon has unveiled the EOS C300 Digital Cinema Camera interchangeable-lens video camera at a press event in Los Angeles. Available in in two models, the EOS C300 comes with an EF mount, while the EOS C300 PL features a PL mount. Both models feature an 8.3MP Super 35mm-equivalent CMOS sensor developed specially for the system, a modular design and a new range of dedicated video lenses. The C300 is scheduled to be available in late January 2012 for an estimated list price of $20,000. The C300 PL is scheduled to be available in late March 2012, also for an estimated list price of $20,000.
Vincent Laforet invited Vimeo out to film the behind the scenes of his new short film, Mobius, which was shot entirely on the new C300. In the video you can see the C300 and the new 30-300 f2.9-3.7 being handled:
Jump to:
HOLLYWOOD, California, November 3, 2011/TOKYO, November 4, 2011—Canon Inc. and Canon U.S.A., Inc. today raised the curtain on an all-new interchangeable-lens digital cinema camera that combines exceptional imaging performance with outstanding mobility and expandability to meet the demanding production needs of today's motion picture industry. The camera, which features a newly developed Super 35 mm-equivalent approximately 8.29-megapixel CMOS sensor, will be available in two models: the EOS C300 Digital Cinema Camera*, equipped with an EF lens mount for compatibility with Canon's current diverse lineup of interchangeable EF lenses for EOS single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras and new EF Cinema Lens lineup; and the EOS C300 PL Digital Cinema Camera*, with a PL lens mount for use with industry-standard PL lenses.
The introduction of the EOS C300/C300 PL coincides with the launch of the Cinema EOS System, marking Canon's full-fledged entry into the digital high-resolution production industry. The new professional digital cinematography system spans the lens, digital cinema camera and digital SLR camera product categories.
Star-Studded Supporting Cast
Equipped with an EF lens mount, the EOS C300 is supported by an all-star cast of high-performance EF lenses, not only the wide array of interchangeable EF lenses for EOS SLR cameras that have earned the trust and respect of photographers around the world, but also the EF cinema lenses in the newly announced Cinema EOS System. When outfitted with a Canon EF lens, the C300's peripheral illumination correction automatically corrects for vignetting in accordance with each lens's optical characteristics, and enables iris control from the camera. Canon EF lenses also enable the recording of such metadata as the name of the lens used, aperture setting and shutter speed.*1
Show-Stopping High-Resolution Full-HD Performance
The Canon EOS C300/C300 PL's newly developed Super 35 mm-equivalent CMOS sensor incorporates approximately 8.29 million effective pixels and has a pixel size that is larger than that for conventional professional camcorders, enabling greater light-gathering capabilities for enhanced sensitivity and reduced noise. The sensor reads Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) video signals for each of the three RGB primary colors, decreasing the incidence of moiré while realizing high resolution with 1,000 horizontal TV lines.
Supported by a heightened signal read-out speed, the CMOS sensor reduces rolling shutter skews, a phenomenon prevalent with CMOS sensors in which fast-moving subjects may appear diagonally distorted. Additionally, the powerful combination of the sensor with Canon's high-performance DIGIC DV III image processor facilitates high-precision gamma processing and smooth gradation expression.
In addition to MPEG-2 Full HD (MPEG2 422@HL compliant) compression, the EOS C300/C300 PL employs 4:2:2 color sampling for high-resolution performance that minimizes the appearance of "jaggies" at chroma edges. Additionally, with a maximum recording rate of 50 Mbps, the camera supports the recording of high-quality video.
The camera's video and audio recording file format adopts the industry-standard MXF (Material eXchange Format), an open source file format ideally suited for non-linear editing systems. Recording to versatile, readily available CF cards, the EOS C300/C300 PL realizes high cost-performance and, equipped with two CF card slots, makes possible the simultaneous recording of video data to two CF cards.
Ready for Action
With a compact body design measuring 5.2 (w) x 7.0 (h) x 6.7 (d) inches, the Canon EOS C300/C300 PL delivers exceptional maneuverability, enabling shooting from vantage points all but inaccessible to large cinema cameras, such as close to the ground for high-impact low-angle shots, and alongside walls. In accordance with on-location shooting needs, the camera can be outfitted with a handle, grip, thumb rest and monitor unit, and offers an array of industry-standard terminals, including HD/SD-SDI video output for the external recording of high-quality video content. When using a WFT-E6B wireless file transmitter for EOS digital SLR cameras (sold separately), the EOS C300/C300 PL can be controlled remotely by means of such common devices as smartphones or tablet PCs.
The camera is equipped with four start/stop buttons positioned at various locations to satisfy any preferred camera-holding style, and can be outfitted with a variety of third-party accessories, including matte boxes, follow focuses and external video and audio recorders. The unit also achieves seamless integration with third-party editing systems and provides added peace of mind through its dust-proof, drip-proof construction and built-in cooling system.
The new camera allows users to adjust image quality to match that of professional camcorders and EOS-series digital SLR cameras, and offers Canon Log Gamma, enabling flat image quality with subdued contrast and sharpness for maximum freedom in post-production editing and processing. In addition to frame rates of 59.41i, 50.00i, 29.97P, 25.00P and 23.98P, the EOS C300/C300 PL features a 24.00p mode, matching the 24 frame-per-second frame rate of film cameras for high compatibility with common film-production workflows.
Other features include fast-motion shooting, achieved by capturing fewer frames per second to create action up to 60x normal speed, and slow-motion down to 1/2.5x*2 made possible by capturing more frames per second. Frame rates between 1 and 60 frames per second (fps) *3 can be adjusted in increments of 1 fps.
Additionally, a selection of Custom Pictures lets users freely adjust image quality for greater control over how content looks.
Pricing and availability
The Canon EOS C300 (EF mount) digital cinema camera is scheduled to be available in late January 2012 for an estimated list price of $20,000. The Canon EOS C300 PL (PL mount) digital cinema camera is scheduled to be available in late March 2012 for an estimated list price of $20,000.
For more information and to view online demonstration footage of the new products please visit: www.usa.canon.com/cinemaeos
*1 Compatible features differ depending on the EF Cinema Lens used.
*2 1/2.5x possible only when recording in 720p mode.
*3 When 59.41i frame rate is selected.
Initially it was rumored to be US20,000. Last I heard (mid-January 2012), the price of one is $13,000 -- and still dropping.
I won't be getting one. It's just too weird overall and all-over. Weirdest looking little beast, too.
We are looking for more affordable cinema grade digital cameras. Looking good Cannon. Can't wait to demo one to run it in real time applications.
OMG, I can't wait for this amazing piece of tech to come out. Amazing?
This is such an amazing camera. Line of new lenses that come with it is just phenomenal. Great job Canon!
Well, at least with the EOS C300, one doesn't need a full make-up crew to 'over-color' its cast members, or the entire set, so they look natural on camera as they do to accommodate RED camera's de-saturation tendencies (why's that anyway?)..., and the C300 looks compact enough so a 3D stereoscopic binocular setup side-by-side, won't be massive as the complicated RED custom mirror setup would be for 3D...
If the RED is "desaturating", it's because it's shooting RAW. If I open up a NEF from the D3x without applying any particular settings, it's going to look like s***. That's normal. Shooting RAW is a feature, not a bug. Anyone shooting a RED knows this and has figured this into the workflow.
I was thinking about stereo possibilities too without a mirror
that adds so many distortions. RGB processing as well,
I wonder if the HDSDI out is dual or 3G or RGB.
At first I thought this was overpriced, now I'm not so sure.
The C300 in side by side 3d configurations would be limited to full shots and establishing shots with subjects 10+ feet from wide lenses. In a pinch you might squeeze a medium by eliminating the background, but that's pushing it. A rig made of these cameras would have a 133mm Inter Axial distance. That's too large for medium work and out of the question for close ups. Consider a proven mirror rig in your costs if you plan to purchase this camera for 3D work.
Most people miss an interesting point: this camera features a sensor that works similar to Sigma's sensors.
This may mean better picture quality than RED (which uses the classic bayer sensor) but most importantly since we are at dpreview, it may signal the future of Canon's sensors.
currently there is no proof that Foveon is better than Bayer. Foveon has mush lower resolution while failed to provide better efficiency. don't know Canon's new sensor.
You don't need Foveon and all its issues for RGB.
Just interpret the data as RGB, for HD a 8mpx sensor is all
that's required. The original cine video camera, the Sony Genesis was RGB, no Foveon necessary. Likewise the F35 and
now F65.
I wish DPP would include a button, RGB, just to see.
It appears a weaker AA filter for RGB is possible.
The sensor is nothing at all like the Sigma/Foveon sensors. That's a good thing, Foveon sensors are too slow for video, noisy as hell, and very weirdly color balanced. They count on the light absorbtive properties of silicon to do color filtering.
This is a plain old Bayer sensor. But they're not doing DSLR style de-Bayer interpolation. This is a 4K / 8Mpixel sensor interpolated down to 2K / 2Mpixels. So the use pixel bucketing, just like on a Vixia or other better single sensor consumer camcorder.. probably most HDSLRs in video mode, too. Each video pixel will be made of one R, one B, and two G pixels from the Bayer array.
Here are my thoughts on the EOS C300:
I found these videos about the launch and some previews:
NEW Canon EOS c300
Photography: Canon EOS C300 Annoucement - Opinion Only
Canon EOS C300 Digital Cinema Camera revealed Video demo
Canon EOS C300 4k footage

From the video above "I didn't know if I was gonna shoot with it till the last minute" = Canon paid me enough to swtich cameras...
I'm more interested in the promised interview with Chuck Westfall............
UGLY-BAG this is
over over OVER priced (RED scarlet canon [PL, just 4 screws] mount --> kit 14k)
1080 only?*** what about 3k, 4k? do you or do you not want to shoot cinema?!!!
no 60p? ay que dolor!
like someone said, why would you want more expensive (around + 6k $) MPEG-2 4:2:2 over 16 bit RAW footage (RED)???
what about 13 to 18 stops dynamic range, can you give us that?
IMHO the only positive thing are THE LENS
... continue
may i burn in hell again, but this "feeding" us with "tiny-before-yesterday" improvements; that skilled cinematographers and photographers make very good use of; and the search (mostly profit wise) for creating and consolidating a new niche (in which the consumer, pro or amateur, has to fit) is about to end.
thanks to "new approaches" like RED is doing, these zega technological tools-toys-computer-gadjets-retina-whatever... are closer, in a fair and coherent way, to us.
i think it is not about filming and/or taking stills, it's about a true human friendly fusion.
I DEMAND a better tool that fits our hand, our pocket and our necessities.
exciting times, that's for sure.
So independent filmmakers and amateurs will still use their ~2000€ cameras for anything they do.. Nothing new here.. An expensive piece of equipment that other broadcast manufacturers have provided for years.. I don't see the point?
Seems as if this will be the main camera for many and I mean many film makers for at least the next 5 years or so. Expect to see footage everywhere from this new piece of kit.
not really.. red also annouced their scarlet x camera
half the price double the features ; )
but anyways.. competition is always good and those features will make their way into cheaper cameras.. even now the hacked gh2 at 176mbit has really really good 1080p.. even the stock firmware makes pretty good 1080p footage
The Red Scarlet isn't "half the price". $10K only gets you the Scarlet central "Brain" unit. You need to spend $14K to get the rest of the camera components. But the C300 is a much more integrated, compact, lighter package, which will be advantageous and desirable for many shooters. Heck, you can literally hang it from your shoulder or neck like a regular DSLR (which is probably why it comes with camera strap eyelets).
if canon is replying Red, this means that this camera is the DSLR killer.
Just shoot video and extract any stills from it and u get a hi-res image.
you get no hi-res image.
it only shoots 5 fps stills with 5 MP.
no raw.
scarlet does more for half the price. looser: too expensive for indies, too low-res for hollywood.
interesting but very expensive lenses which will mount on red as well and sell like hot cakes.
A brilliant argument with just one flaw; the camera costs $20,000. There *was* a time when people were prepared to pay that money for a digital SLR - but that was a very long time ago.
I KNEW CANON WOULD COME OUT WITH A MIRRORLESS!!!!!!! I KNEW IT!!!!! AHAHAHA I told you so, folks. I frickin' told you so.
Lets not be ignorant folks. This is not meant as an upgrade to a 5D or a 7D. There probably isn't a single person on this forum who is actually in the target market for these cameras. They're real deal video cameras.
Rolling shutter, aliasing, etc. are pretty much non existent on these cameras. This is not a photo sensor hacked to shoot video that (poorly) downrezes each frame, this is native 4k playing out at 1080p. This combined with a true log color space will beat any DLR in any category.
And the price is perfectly reasonable. Compare it to anything else out there that competes with it and remember who this is for and it makes perfect sense. RED is the exception, not the rule when it comes to truly affordable cinema cameras.
Also, one does not hand hold these cameras for any period of time. Look at the rigs pros use to shoot these things handheld, and you'll see what real stabilization is.
Anyway, I don't mean to be rude, I just wanted to set a few things straight...
Can't agree more. I could not understand people so obsessed in commenting or even bad-mouthing a product that 1) they totally have no clue about; 2) has not even slightly targeted them. is it just because canon is not making an announcement of EVIL camera? or 5d replacement?
I don't know. My camera still works and I will take picture with it.
Occasionally I also do video, and I could not envy more of the C300's feature. 20K body and 47k lens is not premium price in cinema world but still too high for me. I am pretty happy with quality of AF103 I rent from agency.
People could care less because this camerta doesn't fit with this site. How often are these types of cameras posted or reviewed here. Almost never so why even announce it when other appropriate sites can do it, oh yah advertising $$$$
Many people on this site DO care (I think you meant to say "couldn't care less) and it is fitting for this site to cover such news if this site wants to remain fresh and progressive. I think those who know nothing about this type of equipment should either ask reasonable questions to increase their knowledge or scoot on to other news while keeping their mouth closed.
woah... the C300 was precisely created for those who were already using 5DMkII's for cinematography and hit it's limits quickly... they're the ones wanting more... who knows how many are members here in the 'pro' or 'movie industry'... i already know plenty who used to do weddings with dSLRs (stills) are now going all out with offering clients the whole HD video and stills instead... and we aren't even talking indie film makers yet... and they're out there weighing options and limitations and budgets
i would not have even considered cinematography except for the fact if an FF dSLR did video (which it does now), i would not have entertained the possibility of now including cinematography as an expanded area of creativity, and the C300 only adds to that interest, where alternatives never could or did from other mfr's (none really; sighting recent models of competitors that are so foreign is 'too late'... a more closely integrated system like the C300 makes a lot more sense to newcomers)
Price aside, this here is exhibit A in why d-SLRs shouldn't have video. Cameras like this prove it: the equipment for video already exists, with large sensors mind you, & we photographers would like our still imaging devices left ALONE. You don't hear me complaining about how this thing apparently can't take good photos, or that the ergonomics of it don't suit that task. What business is that of mine? This device is for VIDEO & I respect that boundary, if only videographers would understand the same thing per our d-SLRs.
I applaud this. I don't advocate that Canon can't make good video cameras & still cameras, and printers too, but a device should know its place & STAY there. I buy d-SLRs for images, not YouTube clips.
I'm pretty sure that all of Canon's DSLRs that shoot video also take stills. The video capability in DSLRs has yet to affect your ability to take still images.
My contention is that they should ONLY do stills, period, no matter. Maybe still wouldn't affect the ability of this rig to do video, but they left it off--as well they should've. Same should hold for d-SLRs having YouTube.
When you have the cinematographers of Black Swan using a Canon 7D and hundreds of excellent indie videographers sharing their work done on 5D MkII's on Vimeo, the fact that you want a DSLR just for stills is meaningless. I want my saxophone to play only jazz, but other styles of music exist. Creativity knows no bounds. You want to think inside a small, predefined box that's your business.
"Boxes" exist for a reason. If not for them, the stuff they help keep under control would instead be strewed all over the place. As a long-time fan and user of SLRs long before people dared think of them as YouTube machines, it IS my business when the SLR I want to buy for my still imaging needs has the YouTube fingerprints smudged over my machine.
Hence, the otherwise excellent D5100 doesn't have a direct button for ISO (although Fn can be made to do that), but ah look--there's a YouTube button right there, and you can't assign it to ISO or something else. The 5D II everyone talks about--you don't think upgrading over a measly 9 AF points would've helped photography? Instead they were too distracted making it a YouTube or Vimeo machine.
STAY INSIDE the darn box already. Quit strewing everything all over the place all sloppy-like.
Larry, you should start a boycott of all DSLRs with video. If you get enough people to join you, you can send a powerful message to these companies that old habits die hard and they need to try harder to kill them.
In today's day and age, where imaging consists of images beyond just *still* images, a DSLR that *only* shoots stills is going to be a dinosaur that goes extinct. In other words, a camera that supposedly "knows its place and stays there" is a device that isn't evolving with changing technology and changing world and changing expectations. Lack of evolution presents the danger of extinction!!! So you are WAY off base, larry.
Why are still photographers so disturbed by video capability of their still tools? Is the movie menu tab such a hinder?... I can't get it, really.
Still and motion photography should not have a "boundary" between them, either in technical tools or the creative heads. I hope there will never be one.
I can't imagine why anyone would complain about a excellent dSLR that also has the ability to do video. Video does not detract from the still capabilities. Its a add-on that's there if you want it.
Video mode in a DSLR doesn't detract even slightly from its use as a still camera. I do both, and until my Canon 60D last spring, they were separate worlds. My two Panasonic camcorders do actually have still modes, but as 3-chip, 2 Mpixel sensor models, the stills at best are useful for title or DVD/BD interface photos.
The 60D, on the other hand, does fine video. I shot a Christmas show a week ago, poorly lit and everything. The 60D doesn't just outshoot my $3000 Panny, but any far more expensive 2/3" camcorder I've seen. It's a perfect adjunct, as I can afford it, and I'm going to own a DSLR anyway.
Keep in mind, this all started with the 5DmkII as a "because we can" thing.. Canon wasn't expecting every indy filmmaker to trade in their 16mms for 5Ds. Ok, that didn't happen... some buy 7Ds or 60Ds.
If you're upset with YouTube buttons, don't buy a consumer camera. If you buy a 4-digit Nikon or 3-digi/Rebetl Canon, you're going to have that stuff... if not YouTube, maybe Flikr...
> "Additionally, a selection of Custom Pictures lets users freely adjust image
> quality for greater control over how content looks."
So...Canon thinks that people who spend $20k on a camera body want presets? I'm guessing there's "solarize" and "invert" and "greyscale" modes? And maybe a "super sunshine" mode for holiday pictures?
For TV work where there's no time for grading this could be
useful. For a grade workflow, the user can setup some different low con looks, and still have a quick preview on set to see how
it will end up. More options that's all. This camera will appeal to
many markets.
I love the prism hump on this video camera. I guess they just can't let go..
You guys didn't know that dpreview is subsidiary of Canon. Well now you know.
Somebody, a few days ago about a Nikon camera Halloween costume, said the same thing but with Nikon/dpreview duet!! Y u so silly!!!
Just like DPReview was a subsidiary of Nikon in the second half of last month, and was a subsidiary of Sony in the first half of that month.
DpReview like any mag or commercial TV is a subsidiary of the advertising industry.
Nice toy! I want that for christmas... No wait, I do not... Give me please a 8-10 MP APS-C camera with superb dynamic range please. I would like that much more.
Btw how come no news posting on RED's announcement of their 4K RAW capable Scarlet model which costs a significantly lower$9750 list price? Did Canon tell you not to rain on their parade?
Pity Canon though, I guess they didn't expect RED do pull that stunner, but yeah agreed. The C300 just got totally destroyed by the Scarlet.
This camera just got destroyed by red. Red also shoots stills. Lets see some articles/reviews
Red is a clunky package compared to a C300. The C300 offers a more compact, more integrated, more easy to handle body, with easier-to-use controls. Remember, control buttons and UI are still an important aspect of using a device. And with Canon's many, many years of product development, they know a thing or two about producing an integrated, functional body that users can comfortably use. If you want a Franken-camera, yeah, get a Red. But if you want something more cohesive and integrated, more like a DSLR, then the C300 is a much better choice.
If you want a camera compromised in it's capabilities get a Canon, if you want a camera that really is the best that can be done and not deliberately handicapped get a RED.
Canon as always drip feeds us with nearly want you want, well this time they have been found wanting big time.
At some point Canon will get the message and build cameras exploiting available technology and not pander to the marketing bean counters. This time I think the policy of leave 'em wanting more has back fired big time.
More people are interested in the coming 5D MKIII since the 5D MKII has a much larger sensor than the C300.
It's odd that this made the front page of dpreview. They certainly don't report on new product releases from RED or Arri or Panavision. Seems odd to report on one brand but not the other. Just because it's from a brand that manufactures DSLRs doesn't really justify it. Canon also makes printers, Nikon makes binoculars and miroscopes, but you certainly don't hear much about those product releases.
Well, it is branded as an EOS camera. The lenses add the the current lineup of EF lenses. And the camera takes normal Canon EF lenses. So, that is pretty relevant Canon EOS news.
Well then DPReview need to feed news about this NEX Camera :)
Well the Scarlet X can also use canon EF lenses. There is no excuse to why DPR should not include the RED announcement! It is a shame. Makes one wonder who really runs this website.
it shows a significant trend: canon is badly moving towards cinematography, that's for sure. maybe they know more or are more clever than we are ...
errr. take a look at the front page. Or am I just seeing red? :-)
um, video-cams have been mirrorless for most of the time... are u folks clueless or what?
now we finally have Cinematographic options in compact form... not something large and boxy, the size of a space heater (like RED) or heavy and large (like Sony's PMW-F3) 'bare'...
pity naysayers post the most here, and offer no practical alternatives that can fit in tighter spaces yet have great film look and low dof and clean super high ISO footage straight out of the camera
nothing else has caused as much enthusiasm, for the larger sensor shooters than this at any price... being negative does nothing when nothing else is offered.
People can be more interested in one field than another. But to say that one merits exclusive interest, while another none at all, suggests that the person is a hopelessly dim bore.
For me as a photographer this news is not as interesting as releasing of new dlsr. But i believe this video camera will be highly capable of making really fab movies and I am looking forrward to go to cinema to see films made with it.
Dude you just got a new DSLR LAST WEEK. Give it a break and let everyone have their shine.
Some people are trying to be funny obvioustly
I dont know what are you talking about Robert Daniels. If I ve got a new dslr last week why would i want to buy a new one? You give a break to yours. Everybody has a right to have an opinion. We live in democracy now. Wake up!
I will do my holidays in garage, but I will film them with this monstrum....I will ask my wife about this.
2 things:
1, Isn't this site called DPReview, not DVReview?
2, I can't say they've helped ease my concerns that they care more about video than photography. Sony and Nikon seem to care more about my needs tbh, perhaps they deserve my money more...
How do Nikon and Sonycare more about your needs? And what's wrong with the new 1Dx?
Because they aren't investing as much time in video as Canon.
Canon have been in the film/video/television market for decades so quit worrying, I'm sure all their EOS camera r&d guys haven't jumped ship...
Canon is satisfying both still shooters and video Cinematographers alike, not shortchanging either
why be upset when they happen to do both well?
Does Cheddar Cheesehead have a clue? Sony is one of the biggest players in the digital video market. And their new DSLRs are designed for video even more than Canon or Nikon. I guess it's just more fun to complain that to actually know what you're talking about.
Seriously though, Canon really needs to just stop making everything and focus on DSLRs. Just fire everyone not affiliated with DSLRs. It will save them a lot of operating revenue. If they don't do that, I'm afraid Canon won't get any of cheddargavs money.
I've got a solution... buy Nikon!! :P
Of course im being sarcastic, I love them all, well except sony (even though they make most of the sensors in the world).
Calm down ladies, and Cheddar Cheesehead, I like!!
Oh, and I notice many others have commented on the fact that this is no digital photography. Canon also produce massive office printers and Lord knows what else.
@BeanyPic, does this mean I am no longer allowed to just take photographs? Damn it...
Sony please stop making, TV's, Bluray, vision mixers, digital
clocks, editing software, video cameras, projectors and
consequently go out of business.
Interestingly enough Canon used CMOS sensors in their copiers back in the film days. Once SLR's went digital, Canon had the jump on everyone else that chose to go with CCD's. Now the rest of the major players use CMOS sensors. Why bash a company trying to be successful? If they fail, they will stop. But so far making copiers has paid off for Canon and photographers and it may pay off for cinematographers too. :)
If you are not a film maker this means very little to you. If you are going to make an indie film there are plenty of equipment out there doing similar things, and for rent. Shoe string budget producers should look at the 7D, not the 300C.
So, if compared to what 5DM2 has been offering for years, what do we get for the extra ~$17.5k? (only to speak of really important options) Some more ISO, HD-SDI output, some "rolling shutter reduction", built-in ND's and PL mount option? Did I miss something?
headphone socket? XLR sockets? and a nagging doubt that the C400 will be that much better in 18months time.
Way more frame rates, a real viewfinder and not a makeshift solutions like an HDMI field monitor, or a Z-finder, and a PL mount model so you can use Zeiss and Cooke PL lenses.
better heat management. PL lens mount. built in ND filters. dual CF slots. more video controls. video specific sensor. although, i still think the price is too high... esp. for the Canon mount version.
I've listed ND's, PL mount option, and video sensor as rolling shutter reduction. Is heat really a problem on 5DM2? Not to me. Dual CF's? Hardly imagine when I would really need the option. My point is, there are NO real features (like rapid fps, RAW video etc.) to pay this much money for.
Recording times not artifically limited, just to avoid having to charge an extra tax in Europe. That would seem to be the big one. At least, I never bought the line that Canon was just trying to make the film guys feel at home :}
So, finally Canon joined the mirrorless competition... Nice camera if one is interested in video and has pocket money to buy it.
These video cams have been "mirror-less" ALWAYS. Please don't comment on things that you obviously don't have a slightest clue about. Or maybe you just want to show us your ignorance, if that is the case then you are doing great.
Steppenwolf, cine-video cameras are not all mirror-less. As the matter of fact most cameras from end 1950s to current models have mirrors in them. (Mitchell and Arriflex for Pro, even Bolex had mirror models for consumer market.) Most of the movies filmed from 1960s to 2005 were done with reflex cameras that have mirrors inside.
What you probably talking about is tinny little cam-corders, that have no mirrors. Then yes, you are correct, but this is not camcorder, its full blown S35 format cine camera with EVF.
Tharefore MIRROR-LESS.
Vadimka, I believe that you are confusing the difference between a film camera and a video camera. Most video cameras, even high-end broadcast video systems for live t.v. in the 50's and 60's to today are purely mirror-less systems due to the fact that the viewfinder is an electronic feed from the sensor. Also, esentially all Dslr's that can take video are "mirror-less" due to the fact that when using the video function the mirror is locked up allowing a live feed to the viewfinder from the sensor.
Finally... Canon Mirrorless... It should be a sign that they will be joining the game pretty soon. Not that I give a ****, but still should be interesting to see what will they do. Hopefully they would not be as greedy as Nikon and do something decent, something that will replace/compete with their entry level dSLR.
But as far as cine goes Sony has to take a notice, and hopefully RED will finally go out of business. (they won't be missed). Healthy competition in the mid-pro level cine equipment is very good, thats where a decent technology will be born to go down to consumer product.
> "hopefully RED will finally go out of business. (they won't be
> missed)"
Sarcasm? RED *OWNED* Canon's rear end with the Scarlet. And int he video community, I know far more people itching to shoot on EPICs from RED. Not only will they not be going out of business, they'll be producing at capacity for the foreseeable future.
Too little too late. 8-bit 1.9K 30FPS 6MB/s? That's about one tenth the capability of four-year-old cameras in that price range (e.g. Red One 12-bit 4K 42 MB/s compressed raw), to say nothing of current models.
I don't get it. All that quality equipment and so many focus issues in the Behind The Scenes footage?
So I guess the 1Ds and 1D now become 1Dx and 300C , would be very interesting to tell how all goes with this one
I've worked with a ton of middle-to-big commercial productions shooting DSLRs and I will assure you none of them are going to jump on this $20k camera any time soon. For that kind of money you might as well go Red but then again, that kind of money is hard to come by even for what you would think of as high budget productions.
This camera is not being marketed as the next big thing for uploading videos to youtube. Of course you can create amazing content that looks amazing with a DSLR setup, but you have to figure what the output is going to be. This system is being marketed as a usable replacement to a 35mm motion picture film camera which the film stock alone would probably cost twenty thousand dollars. Of course in five years this tech will be standard in every DSLR for a tenth of the price : )
how much 4096x2160 video can you even record on 2 compactflash cards? I thought for sure they would have a sata port for SSD drives with such a high quality camera
Check the specs again. It is only recording at the same rate as Canon's current 1080p professional camcorders: 50 Mbps
With two 64 GB Compact Flash cards, that would give you 160 minutes of recording time.
Looking at the release info and the video.....this is Canon telling Nikon and all imposters to "f-off! - you guys aren't gettng close to our video capabilities!"
And seriously speaking as a Nikon shooter. Nikon jumped into the video game but didn't really have much of a ground to stand on. Camera's like this are really changing the dynamics of "low" end projects and will quickly eliminate DSLR video options unless DSLR video capabilities quickly change to provide acceptable output.
not really low end dSLRs are already doing cinematographic duty given their 'disposable=expendable' costs... one can afford to do 'extreme destructive' shots with the cheaper models than one would be willing to do with the pricier counterparts... so, much depends on the budget and visual objectives of the creative teams... after all they already used the 5DMkII in big budget movies (Iron Man II, etc.) in precisely that kind of scenario, which means a lot more opportunities for shots otherwise not considered on smaller budgets.
Naaaa.. Canon's just reminding everyone that they also make Camcorders. They haven't had a good answer in this category; the other majors (Panasonic, Sony, maybe even JVC) have.
Nikon doesn't play in the camcorder market. In theory, that could be a good thing for Nikon shooters. Canon , Sony and Panasonic have some interest in ensuring a $1K-$3K-ish DSLR isn't too good a replacement for a $10K-$30K+ camcorder. Nikon has no such issue.
But actually it's the Panasonics that have been most interesting, albeit with smaller sensors. They have had longer recording times, and full IPB compression in AVC; Canon DSLRs are IP only. There have been some interesting hacks for Canon, mostly little things like audio level meters or auto-restart recording. Not sure about Nikon. But there's a Panny hack for 120Mb/s+ AVC-Intra recording... where is this mode on the C300? In this price range, shoukd have it out of the box.
Ok, back to photógraphy...
Seems to have a decent output quality but man the design is pretty ugly
these cameras get mounted to any number of mounting systems.......the look of the camera is irrelevant.
agree, but at least the new RED cost less and shoots 4K
I don´t know if I mention this but man the design is pretty ugly
Unlike many of the dweebs here at DPR, serious professionals are going to purchase based on how the camera functions, not how it looks. What matters is the look of the output, and how easy or hard it is to generate that output, not the look of the device.
Did I mention that form follows function?
Charly, not sure if you noticed, but it's not really ugly, it's more like Fugly...
Bob I agree with you, what matters is the output quality that´s why anyone will prefer the RED Scarlet X instead of this, even if the Scarlet it´s uglier (to me)... more quality, less $$$ .. done deal. Game over Canon (and this pretty ugly design)
The look of the camera is related to the accessories that are added onto it: matte box, external monitor, focus and zoom controls, etc. A nice looking professional 35mm cinema camera is just as ugly when nothing else is attached.
Bit of a jump from $2K to $20K. The 5Dmk2 is primarily a still camera.
Isn't this the 5D Mark III page? ... aww shucks!
Hold the floodgates!
I'm surprised they didn't release a power-zoom & AF/AE system, for ENG work and so on.
Follow-focus systems are pretty bulky.
film students and film schools are going to have a low light field day with this...
BTS (behind the scenes)
XXIT (for me... low light usage here looked interesting... and green screen)

Louisiana sees 2nd-best nonfarm employment gains on the year
Unemployment rates rose in 27 U.S. states in June compared to the month previous, the most in almost a year and a reflection of weaker hiring nationwide, according to a preliminary June jobs report out this morning from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, there's a bit of good news for Louisiana in the report, which says the Bayou State had the second-largest employment percentage increase in the nation. North Dakota had the largest increase, with 6.5% more of its residents with a job this June than were last June. Louisiana followed at 2.8%, with the addition of about 52,700 jobs. According to the report, 11 states and the District of Columbia posted unemployed rate decreases, and 12 states had no change. Forty-seven states and the District of Columbia registered unemployment rate decreases from a year earlier, while three states experienced increases. The national jobless rate, at 8.2%, was unchanged from May but 0.9 percentage points lower than in June 2011.

Hi there,
I've picked up the core set and a few deluxe expansions (Kings of the Storm, Lords of Winter and Queen of Dragons). However, I'm a bit loathe to start adding cards from the expansions into the decks, given that I want all four to be reasonably balanced and I don't really have much in the way of decent cards outside the core set for House Lannister. Are there any expansions that you'd recommend I buy to get House Lannister up to a level playing field?
Without signature
Page 1 of 1 (4 messages) | 1 |
Other than waiting for the next deluxe expansion which will be Lannister but we have no release date or any other info for it yet I would recommend getting packs from the King's Landing Expansion cycle, alot of good Lannister cards in there as well as new versions of the major Lannister characters. Follow this link and you can see the Lannister cards from that cycle agot.dbler.com/
For card search, deckbuilder, articles,podcasts visit: Card Game DB
Apart from that, I'd strongly recommend to get two packs from the A Clash of Arms cycle: Battle of the Ruby Ford, which has Devious Intentions and Castellan of the Rock, one a very good, the other an essential Lannister card, and War of the Five Kings, which comes with Pyromancer's Cache, a card that has been so good it was actually banned for a long time. It has only recently been let out of the dog house with the introduction of the restricted list. Jhalabar Xho and King Joffrey's Guard are more good Lanni cards that make this pack worthwhile. Please note that you can't run both the Castellan and the Cache in tourney-legal decks, as they're both restricted. But it's a good thing to have access to both.
When you follow Toq's advice and get the King's Landing expansion, please note that Alchemist's Guild Hall, another quintessential Lanni card, has been errata'd. It's a Limited Response: now (see the FAQ).
This forum hates signatures
2 More core sets. Seriously Lanni has a lot of power in the core set alone. As mentioned above, Kings Landing is good, and there are quiet a few nice cards in Clash Arms.
A Lannister ALWAYS pays his debts...

Jim's kids recently came down to Alabama for their Spring Break. Jim was able to take a rare break from work so he could spend lots of time with them. My kids were thrilled to have their new brothers here. My son, in particular, loved it. After living with three sisters his whole life, it's a real treat for him to have some more boys around.
The boys went deep sea fishing in the Gulf. They were so excited to tell me all about how they caught a shark! Now they want to go shark fishing this summer.
Speaking of sharks, we took the kids to see the Megalodon exhibit at the Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center in Mobile. They got to see the bones from the largest shark that ever lived and go on an archeological dig. The exhibit about our bodies and the snack bar were also rated highly.
The kids are all looking forward to being together again over the summer. They're trying to talk me into going shark fishing. Would you go? I'm voting for regular fishing…
What did you do on your Spring Break? Leave a comment and let us know what fun things you did.

Peacemaking Team
The Gospel is the good news
that God has made peace with us through Jesus Christ,
so we can now have peace with others.
Rocky Mountain Community Church is committed to helping believers to respond to conflict in a way that demonstrates the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ. We do this through the ministry of all of our members, lay leaders, and pastoral staff. In addition, we have a Peacemaking Team to help our church on its journey toward developing a true culture of peace--a church environment where people are consistently expressing Christ's love in their relationships with one another and reflecting that Christ-like love to a watching world. The heart of each person on our Peacemaking Team is primarily for the gospel: the truth that it is only because God first reconciled us to himself through Christ, that we can be reconciled to one another here on earth. We have a heart for reconciliation and a particular love and care for those who are experiencing the pain of conflict. Close behind our heart for the gospel is our heart to serve our church leaders and advance their vision for Rocky Mountain Community Church. The way a peacemaking team serves RMCC is through two primary avenues:
Because this ministry (like many others) requires certain skills and tools that don't typically just come naturally, teams are specifically trained in biblical peacemaking. Why Does Rocky Mountain Community Church Have A Peacemaking Team? The best way to answer that question is through six Because's:

North Korea will likely postpone the launch of a long-range rocket, state news agency KCNA said on Saturday, but gave no reasons for delaying the plan which has been widely condemned by countries including Russia and the United States.
Space news from NBCNews.com
Teen's space mission fueled by social media
Science editor Alan Boyle's blog: "Astronaut Abby" is at the controls of a social-media machine that is launching the 15-year-old from Minnesota to Kazakhstan this month for the liftoff of the International Space Station's next crew.
- Buzz Aldrin's vision for journey to Mars
- Giant black hole may be cooking up meals
- Watch a 'ring of fire' solar eclipse online
Teen's space mission fueled by social media
KCNA quoted a spokesman for the country's space agency, which plans to send a satellite into space on the rocket, as saying it was "seriously examining the issue of readjusting the launching time of the satellite".
North Korea, which planned to launch the rocket between December 10 and December 22, is banned from carrying out any missile or nuclear related tests by United Nations resolutions imposed in 2006 and 2009 after it conducted nuclear tests.
The latest launch had been scheduled to take place around the first anniversary of the death of North Korea's former leader Kim Jong-il but would also have coincided with December elections in Japan and South Korea.
The planned launch has been condemned by Japan and South Korea, as well as the United States and Russia. China, the North's only major diplomatic ally, has expressed "deep concern" it could raise tensions on the Korean Peninsula.
The rocket was scheduled to pass between the Korean Peninsula and China, with a second stage splashing down off the Philippines before launching the satellite into orbit.
An earlier launch attempt ended in failure in April when the mission was aborted just a few minutes into its flight.
Critics say North Korea's rocket program is aimed at developing an ballistic missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead.

THE MONKEES - "Too Many Girls"
(art by Aireen Arellano - to view larger version, click here)
SHOW: The Monkees
EPISODE: "Too Many Girls"
FIRST AIRED: Dec. 19, 1966
The Monkees is one of the most beloved rip-offs of all time. Its primordial soup is a cynical stew of corporate calculation, an A-to-B paint-by-numbers formula meant to cash in on the popularity of a certain 1960s rock band that also just happened to have a misspelled animal-inspired moniker, four bowl-cut guys with dimples and endearing personalities, and a sense of rollicking fun and romantic whimsy that pervaded their entire oeuvre onscreen, onstage, and on the turntable.
Still, despite what boardroom schemers may believe, eventually something new and exciting, unexpected and genuine has to enter somewhere into the boiling pot in order to capture our collective imagination. So even though The Monkees was constructed as a Hard Day's Night-esque TV show first and a band second, and even though the group was widely known since its inception as "America's answer to the Beatles," what aspects of the whole enterprise transmuted it from mere carbon-copycatting into a fresh and memorable entry into the pop culture landscape?
As demonstrated in "Too Many Girls," an enjoyable Davy Jones-centric outing from Season One of the half-hour sitcom, the magic of The Monkees depended upon two things: the creative team's masterful use of the medium, and hey hey, the Monkees themselves.

"Ring ring ring"
I received a message, "Tomorrow 4:00 pm. We will meet at Tous Les Jours cafe…"
I thought oh, I have a geography class at 6 pm. It's far away from Tous Les Jours cafe. So I replied immediately, "I got it. But I have a class at 6:00 pm. I can get there earlier so that I can leave earlier because my school is far away from Tous Les Jours cafe."
Then our teacher, Mrs Xu replied, "Well, you can come here at 3:20, so that then you can leave when you finish your task."
When I hurried there, i arrived at 3:30pm. I started doing my work, took photos and then delivered the photos I had taken. Then I noticed that Steven still hadn't turned up. At that moment, my teacher's mobile phone was ringing. I thought it might be Steven. It was Steven! He said, "Hi, is that teacher? This is Steven. I'm lost. I forget the name of that bus station in front of Tous Les Jours cafe?" Then our teacher explained quite clearly how to take the bus and where to change it.
10 minutes later, he appeared. We all started to tease him. We often met at this cafe but he could never remember the bus stop name…
Well. It's time to do more interviewing. Steven and I decided to go to the shopping mall, because we thought it was really convenient and cool. Unluckily, we still could not find a person who would agree to an interview. So we wanted to go outside where there were more people. But right as we got on the elevator we found two girls who looked like college students. We made our mind to try again so we asked, "Excuse me. We are from What Kids Can Do and Adobe. Can we ask you some questions about the Olympics? It won't be very long." After looking our credentials they agreed.
The interview was relaxedness and funny. Right at that moment, a staff of the shopping mall came close to us…
"Excuse me, can you let me know what are you doing? Are you interviewing?"
He asked. "Yes, we are asking some questions about the Olympics. If you want, we can interview you too." "No. I mean… can you come to our manager's office? We are told to pay more attention to the interviewers, you know. " "Well, I know." Steven followed him, I finished my interview then went to the office in a hurry.
"You know, here is close to the Olympic stadium. So we must pay attention to the interviewings."
The manager said. "So, can I know the questions?"
"Of course. We showed them our question list of interviewing" They made a copy which took them a long time. Let me say, it should be about 20 minutes, I think. During that time, we called our teacher and told her details. She asked if she needed to talk to the maneger, we said: "it is fine here. Do not need her to be here. We will be back soon."
20 minutes later we were back to the cafe.
"Oh my!" I looked my watch. It was 5:00pm. There's no time to rest. I must go. Fortunately, teacher and other students could go with me.
First, we took a taxi. And we hurried to the line 5. It was 5:15pm. Then at the transfer station we took line10—a new subway line. It was 5:35. Finally, I took a taxi. when I got there , it was 5:55pm.
It was a hurried day that so many things happened. But it was more exciting, isn't it?

Fireman Ed resigns. So, at the very least, this Jets season is not a total loss. http://t.co/e9tdrgHz
At first, it seemed like a headline from the Onion. The Jets superfan Ed Anzalone announced Sunday that he was retiring his Fireman Ed cheerleader routine. He told Kristian Dyer of Metro New York that "the boorish behavior of fans" had gotten to him.
"Listen, I went through the Rich Kotite era — we were 4-28 in that era. Any Jets fan knows this isn't the worst of times; it isn't close. It's been about the nastiness. I just think society in general — you're out in your car there's no respect at all. I don't want to put up with that from people taking it out on me anymore."
Anzalone said fans have gotten nasty and confrontational with him, often mistaking him as part of the organization when he is merely a season ticket holder "who has never received a dime from this team."
An excerpt from Anzalone's guest column at Metro New York:
I decided to leave Thursday because the confrontations with other Jets fans have become more common, even though most Jets fans are fantastic.
This is an indication of how society has lost and is continuing to lose respect for one another. The stadium has become divided because of the quarterback controversy as well. The fact that I chose to wear a Mark Sanchez jersey this year and that fans think I am on the payroll — which is an outright lie — have made these confrontations more frequent. Whether it's in the stands, the bathroom or the parking lot, these confrontations are happening on a consistent basis.
Although I can "hold my own," I do not want to lose my temper and make a stupid mistake. I have a responsibility to the families and kids that enjoy the game and Fireman Ed.
He concluded: "I will always love the Jets because they are in my heart, and I will attend games as usual, just not as Fireman Ed. God bless and, as always, let's go Jets!"
And so continued the tragicomedy that began Thursday with a grotesque loss to the Patriots.
Brian Bassett of the Jets Blog wrote: "I know people have mixed feelings about Ed, but no matter how you might feel it's hard to not get a little depressed to realize that the guy can't even hang out among fellow fans without getting blasted for it. Sorry to hear that it's come to this."
One commenter at Metro New York wrote: "How are Jets fans going to know how to spell J-E-T-S now?!?"
Steve Politi of The Star-Ledger wrote on Twitter: "So at what point does Belichick sign Fireman Ed and turn him into a Hall of Famer?"
A radio caller on WFAN said: If this keeps up, the Jets' games next season will be broadcast on Comedy Central.
Extra point Will you miss Fireman Ed?

Results 101 to 110 of 145
Thread: hP's 90g Planted
Yeah I'll have to figure out how to do that... there are currently 37 of them, I hope to get some from my parents house to bring the number up into the 40s and then pick up some more in a few weeks to get up to 60 or 70.
The tank looks a little crazy when they aren't schooling, but they ball up nicely whenever I walk in hahaha.
January 23rd
Bad news today guys... one of my Eheim 2217s went out. I took it apart and checked to make sure that everything is sitting the way it should be and it is. I can't seem to figure out whats wrong with it. I've moved all the filter media into the other filter and everything is going okay so far. If anyone has had experience with an Eheim fouling up, I'd love some ideas.
To keep the flow up in the tank, I put in a small powerhead. The rasbora seem to love it, I'll see if I can get some pics of them hanging out in the current. Slight ammonia spike from the addition of the 30 rasboras, will probably need a water change tonight.
Big schools of Rasboras are an awesome sight.

Nice pics, HP. I can't wait to see a video of them of the big school. 60 would be spectacular, I'm sure.

Thanks guys. No pink bellies on the GBRs yet, three of them don't even have a black spike or dot yet. However, two of them do have that blue sheen covering the area that the dot should be so thats a slight but inconclusive indicator.
As for the filter, the tank seems to be doing okay, the readings show less than 0.25ppm ammonia which is probably due to the fact that I've cut feeding back to once a day in the mornings. Hopefully the bacteria will catch up by the weekend.
Just a few pics, everything is going well in the tank. Got the other filter fixed, needed a new impeller, I'm still $70 ahead of the game with this whole second hand filter thing. Filled it up with new media too, 1kg of Fluval ceramic noodles and half a bag of filter floss... hopefully that'll really leave some space for BB.

Thanks Kevin... I hadn't realized that the feeding pic was so blurry until I put it up here... Looks like I'll need to start using the Nikon instead of my iphone lol. You should definitely try to get some cool moonlight pics, works surprisingly well!
January 29th
Just a little update:
The tank was doing really well once the filter was back online. Water parameters are back to where they should be, Amm0/Nit0/Nitrate~0, so I've gone and picked up two more GBRs. Cute little guys are boasting a bit more color than the four I got previously, better genetics? I've picked out a bully amongst the GBRs, not quite sure if I should be worried about him though as he isn't always chasing the other fish... plus, since there are 5 others, the aggression gets a large spread.
Any ideas on the mean guy?
To treat the BBA, I've still been looking for a SAE (more like 5 of them), but they're no where to be found. So in the mean time, I've started hydrogen peroxide treatments. I spot treat the algae at the anchor with 3% H2O2, the basic stuff you'd find in a drugstore.
Here's a picture 18 hours after treatment, IME reddening indicates death of the algae, lets see if it falls off:

Sun Devils will stick together despite rough patch
Originally published: Nov 4, 2012 - 9:01 am
A season ago, after starting out 5-1, the Sun Devils tapered off dramatically with six losses in their final seven games.
This season, after earning a place in the Top 25 with an impressive 5-1 start, Kelly and Co. look headed for a similar nose dive after three straight losses to Oregon, UCLA and Oregon State.
But while the murmurs continue to grow following each new defeat, ASU's starting quarterback remains confident that 2012 will have a much better ending than 2011 had.
"You know we are disappointed, but I have great confidence in our guys," Kelly said. "They have great character when stuff hits the fan. This is the time when we are going to pull together better than ever."
While Kelly's vote of confidence is admirable given the team's current slump, the sophomore wasn't exactly in the trenches during ASU's late-season slide in 2011.
Running back Cameron Marshall was, however. And while he admits the plunge in the Pac-12 standings has its similarities to last season, the overall feeling in the locker room the senior says is not the same.
"We've experienced this before," said Marshall. "And, it's familiar and it's different at the same time, because this group of guys, I think our heads are in a different place than it has been before."
Marshall added that the Sun Devils still have plenty to play for over the final three weeks of the season and that the team's collective maturation will help them recover from their recent losing ways.
"I've just seen a lot of growth and maturity from a lot of guys on the team," said Marshall. "Guys who last season at this point in time might have been selfish and not playing for the team or the guys playing for the team the most, encouraging everybody else and other people.
"I think the maturity level has grown on this football team."
ASU will head to Los Angeles next weekend to face another slumping conference foe, the USC Trojans. Last season, Marshall helped lead the Sun Devils to a convincing 43-22 victory over Lane Kiffin's squad.

NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE, Ontario,– The Honourable Rob Nicholson, P.C., Q.C., Member of Parliament for Niagara Falls, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, on behalf of the Honourable James Moore, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages, today announced support for the Niagara Historical Society to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812.
This investment will allow the organization to create a mobile version of the production "Flames of War," enhanced by a virtual edition of the exhibition "Niagara on the Eve of War." The production will tour throughout Canada in the summer and fall of 2013. To date, 32 communities across Canada have expressed interest in hosting the production and virtual exhibit.
"We are pleased to support the Niagara Historical Society as they move forward with this project that will bring the events of the War of 1812 to a wider audience," said Minister Nicholson. "Now Canadians in communities across the country will now have an opportunity to see this production and learn more about this defining chapter in our history."
"Our Government is proud to invest in projects that contribute to our collective identity and define who we are as Canadians," said Minister Moore. "On the road to Canada's 150th birthday in 2017, let us celebrate all the things that make Canada the united, strong, and free country we are today."
"We are very pleased to receive funding for this project. During the 2012 summer, this production was seen weekly at historic Fort George in Niagara on the Lake," said Sarah Maloney, Managing Director and Curator for the Niagara Historical Society. "This year we have partnered with Parks Canada and the Flames of War production crew by adding an 1812 virtual exhibition to the show. This will provide us with the opportunity to offer the production and experience to communities across Eastern Canada!"
The Niagara Historical Society is a provincially incorporated, not-for-profit, charitable heritage institution located in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
The Government of Canada has provided funding of $150,000 to the Niagara Historical Society through Canadian Heritage's 1812 Commemoration Fund. The Fund supports community-based projects to foster greater awareness and understanding of the importance of this conflict.
This support is in addition to a previous investment of $83,550 (2011–2012) to create the "Niagara on the Eve of War" exhibition for the Society's museum.Visit 1812.gc.ca to learn more about the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812.
Niagara Falls, Ontario – Across the country, community centres, cultural centres, ice rinks, swimming pools, and other community projects will soon be improved thanks to support from the Government of Canada's Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund (CIIF).
As part of the Government's Economic Action Plan 2012, the Honourable Rob Nicholson, P.C., Q.C, Member of Parliament for Niagara Falls, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, today announced $646,189 in federal funding for seven local projects under the Fund.
"Our Government is demonstrating its continued commitment to communities across Canada," said Minister Nicholson. "Here in Niagara, these projects supported through the Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund, will create jobs, growth and long-term prosperity in our local communities."
The Government of Canada is providing funding for the following local projects:
Through the Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund, the Government of Canada has committed to supporting communities and creating jobs through repairs and improvements to existing community facilities over the next two years.
NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE, ONTARIO Residents and businesses in Niagara-on-the-Lake will soon benefit from improved wastewater infrastructure, thanks to a funding commitment from the Government of Canada.
"Our Government is investing in this project to protect the Great Lakes and contribute to the economic future of the Niagara region," said The Honourable Rob Nicholson, P.C., Q.C., Member of Parliament for Niagara Falls, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada. "A new, modern wastewater facility will help safeguard the environment for future generations by ensuring that water returned to Lake Ontario meets or exceeds treatment standards."
Niagara-on-the-Lake's current wastewater treatment plant was originally constructed in the mid-1960s and does not have sufficient capacity to meet future volume. Thanks to today's investment, a new treatment facility will be built approximately 800 metres west of the existing one, and once the new plant is constructed, the existing facility will be decommissioned.
Pumping stations and force mains will be upgraded, and a wet weather flow treatment system will also be installed. These upgrades will increase the plant's energy efficiency and help protect the environment by improving the quality of treated municipal wastewater for the Niagara region. This project will ensure sufficient treatment capacity to meet the needs of Niagara-on-the-Lake's population for the next 20 years or more.
"The Niagara-on-the-Lake Wastewater treatment plant is a critical piece of infrastructure that has served the local community well for many years," said Regional Chair Gary Burroughs. "Through the generous funding and support for this project provided by the federal and provincial governments, Niagara Region will be able to build a new, modern facility providing efficient and safe wastewater treatment services to the residents and businesses of Niagara-on-the-Lake."
The Government of Canada is setting aside up to one-third of total eligible costs, to a maximum contribution of $14,426,667 for the project. The Province of Ontario has committed a matching amount, and the Region of Niagara is responsible for all remaining costs. The total estimated cost of the wastewater project is $43,280,000.
This project has been identified as a priority for funding under the Major Infrastructure Component of the Building Canada Fund. Federal funding is conditional on the project meeting all of the requirements under the Building Canada Fund and the signing of a contribution agreement.
The Government of Canada has engaged provinces, territories, municipalities and key stakeholders in a series of roundtables to guide the development of a new long-term infrastructure plan that will support job creation, economic growth and prosperity. We have heard that we are on the right track: there is a need for strong, sustained investment and we must continue to work together moving forward. To improve infrastructure across Canada and leverage new investment, our new long-term plan will encourage greater use of public-private partnerships, while respecting the capacity of Canadian taxpayers.

Sedu Color Heat Protecting Boost
MindyGreeley, COGood But??I like this product, but Im wondering how well it really works. For some reason I noticed it made my hair feel somewhat waxy/heavy so Im wondering if I am using too much. The bottle says only use about four sprays but four sprays wont even cover my entire head. All in all though, good product. I use it with my Sedu straightening iron.posted Feb 15, 2008Link to this post
KellieWashington, DCMediocre For African-american HairPROS:Pleasant smell. Lightweight on hair during application (not oily)CONS:Didnt produce a nice sheen on my hair, like my press creme does.After 1 day, I noticed dandruff, that I believe was this product that began to dry and flake off in mass amounts. General comments:Probably will work for naturally straighter hair, but isnt up to snuff for curlier, African-American hair. Dandruff was enough for me to put this product on the shelf.posted Oct 14, 2007Link to this post

JeanFresno, CaSo-soI thought this would be the best for my hair, but it really doesnt live up to my expectations. I used it by itself, in conjunction with other products, and then tried not using it to see my hair difference. I didnt see anything. Maybe it has to do with a long term effect. Its not great, but then its not bad-just so-so.posted Aug 1, 2007Link to this post
CandaceHairLong HairHard To Hold BottleI cant tell if the product really works like it says. I do know that the bottle design is hard to hold and spray with one hand. You have to hold the bottle with two hands and therefore you dont get to hold your hair and spray directly where wanted. I have long hair. I end up spraying some on floor because of having to hold the bottle with two hands.posted Jul 15, 2007Link to this post

A plea for help
My name is James Dean. Nancy Dean and I live at 1121 Plum Road., Nel-Win Camp subdivision (since 1975). We were victims of the 2011 flood. We lost everything, including our home. We had no flood insurance as our home was elevated and had always been safe in the past....I own a small lot...and am going to rebuild and am doing so.
The Nel-Win board...gave me permission in writing to move in a camper trailer to use as I rebuild....(then) filed papers in Chancery Court to force me to remove my camper. I refused as we have nowhere to go....In their complaint...the board said my camper lowered their property values and asked for financial compensation.
