"Much More Expensive Models!"
on by Amos-EPros Lot of options and adjustments.
Records very good video and easy to use automatic mode.
Great image stabilization.
Great image stabilization.
Great price.Cons Only one SD slot card.
Lack of wall charger.
Battery life.Summary I have been using a Sony HC-3 High Definition Camcorder since 2006 with very good results. The HC-3 records to mini-DV tapes. I purchased the R300 to save time by not having to deal with the hassle and expense of finding and using tape. To transfer two hours of video to my computer from the HC-3 it takes an additional two hours. The Canon HF R300 records to files of a number of different resolutions, compressions and formats. Many can be used without any re-encoding before being either uploaded to YouTube or written to Blueray discs. This is a huge time saver for me and the primary reason that I purchased this camcorder.
It does come stock with a very small battery and I understand other users frustrations. I have always purchased at least a couple of extra batteries immediately for every camcorder that I have ever purchased. Taking video and especially high definition video has always been a power hungry application. Most of the video that I take is actually in auditoriums; the first thing that I do is try to find a good spot that has both a good view of the stage and a power outlet. I have always had issues with batteries giving out on me at the most inopportune times.
I purchased my Vixia in a bundle that included an additional OEM medium capacity battery, a case, and an 8gig SD card. I immediately purchased two additional generic high capacity batteries and a wall charger for $24 including shipping. With three extra batteries I have the battery capacity that I need even if I am not able to park myself next to an outlet during an event and I got it all at a price that I cannot even mention here because it was so low.
My Sony HC-3 has a 1/3" CMOS sensor and it had the best low light capabilities of any consumer camcorder in 2006. The Canon HF R300 has a smaller 1/4.85" CMOS with more pixels, so it is at a disadvantage because each pixel is receiving a smaller amount of light at a given brightness level. However there have been improvements in both pixel sensitivity and density over the years and the Canon HF R300 while not quite as good as some higher priced camcorders in low light... is more than adequate for what I use it for. The results are very similar to my Sony HC-3. For what I use it for the most the 30x zoom lens is a very big plus as compared to the 10x lens in my Sony HC-3 and the more expensive Canons. I am willing to give up a little in low light sensitivity for the more powerful zoom.
For my purposes the ability to plug in an external microphone or the line out of a PA system or mixer is essential. Every camcorder that I have purchased over the past 30 years has always had the capability to plug in an external sound source or microphone. The Sony HC-3 did not initially have a mic jack but both bluetooth mics and a mic jack adapter was available which added the mic or line input through the hot shoe. An external mic jack is generally available on most high end camcorders, but on less expensive camcorders this is one of the first options to be dropped. So I am very grateful that the Canon HF R300 has both an external mic jack and a headphone jack.
Every camcorder in this price range is going to have a few compromises. Mine came bundled with adequate batteries and I purchased additional high capacity batteries and a wall charger for a nominal amount so I do not consider that to be a negative. My assumption is that Canon will most likely include a larger battery on this coming years model. I would have appreciated a hot shoe for powered accessories such as a light or bluetooth microphone. This camcorder has a lot of options and adjustments that can be accessed through the menu system; it would have been nice if a few of these could have been accessed through programmable buttons. I also would have loved a LANC terminal so that I could control the Zoom and other functions from a tripod.
Overall this is an incredible camcorder for the price. It has too many features to list in my review. I especially appreciate the choice in file formats, frame rates, resolution and compression. This allows a user to easily burn a DVD that will play HD video in a blueray player without re-encoding. It also allows one to upload HD content to YouTube without re-encoding. This is a feature that is a big improvement over the prior years comparable Canon Camcorders. Inexplicably this major improvement is not mentioned in most reviews, but will save me hours of time and frustration.
This is an incredibly versatile camcorder with a lot of hidden bells and whistles. It records very good video and has an easy to use automatic mode, but enough options to keep a more experienced user happy, lastly I suggest check for best deal of this camcorder at: Flashmemory-camcorders.blogspot.com/p/canon-vixia-hf-r300.html
Thank for reading and hope this review is helpful for who looking for some worth camcorder.

Hotchkiss mid-distance runner Cody Bartlett wasn't expected to win at last week's 3A Western Slope League track meet. Distance coach Richard Hypio said he knew Bartlett would better his times in the 800- and 1600-meter runs, and probably place.
But the junior wasn't ranked in the 800, and was barely a blip on the radar in the 1600.
But just as he did last fall at the regional cross country meet, Bartlett put forth his best performances of the season a week before state, shaving 2 seconds off his best time to win the 800 and 3 seconds off of his PR to place second in the 1600. He's now comfortably qualified to compete at this week's state 3A meet in both events, as well as the 1600 relay.
"I was very nervous going in," said Bartlett after edging out Rifle's Aaron Wagler, who was favored to win the 800. "I thought I wasn't going to do so good. It was just nerves, though."
Bartlett said he paced off of Wagler for much of the first lap, then at the 350 mark, decided Wagler was taking it too easy, "So I decided to pass him then." Bartlett led the second lap, then entered the final curve with Wagler uncomfortably close, and thought for a second that maybe he went all out too early. The two battled their way down the stretch, with Bartlett leaning into the finish line to win by 2/100ths of a second.
On Friday, Bartlett led throughout most of the 1600, but Aspen's Kellan Kremer, who was favored to win, caught him down the stretch to win by just over a second.
Bartlett credited competitiveness and mental toughness for his ability to push through the physical pain. When a lot of athletes reach the breaking point, they slow down. "When I feel the breaking point, I speed up."
Senior Tell Hawk also made a strong showing at league. Hawk was seeded third going into Friday's finals in the 400, and posted the second upset of the day over Rifle's Wagler with a second-place time of 50.88. Hawk will make his second appearance at state in the event, and holds the eighth-fastest time of 50.77.
Two relay teams also qualified for state after posting their best time of the season. The 800-meter team of Vikash Hypio, Dylan Hill, Hawk and Keegan Palmer placed second with a state-qualifying time of 1:33.85. The 400 team of Hypio, Hill, Hawk and Earl Gaub placed third in 3:32.44. And the 1600 team of Hypio, Hawk, Bartlett and Alex Smith finished third with a time of 3:32.44.
Also earning points for Hotchkiss were Katzdorn, who placed third in the 3200; Hypio, who placed eighth out of a field of 30 in the 100; Alex Smith, who placed seventh in the 800; Keegan Palmer, who was fourth in the triple jump; and senior Mason Oxford, who threw the discus 124 feet, 11 inches to place third.
The boys team earned 67 points to place fifth overall.
Hotchkiss Girls
Hotchkiss sophomores Jenni Celis and Natalie Anderson have a natural gift for running. And they make it look so easy.
"It's definitely a challenge. I definitely try my hardest," said Celis after calmly winning Friday's 800-meter run by eight seconds. She said she's seen videos of her performances. "It looks like it's going easy, but I'm really trying."
Celis was seeded second after Thursday's 400 preliminaries, but finished more than two seconds ahead of second place to win the event on Friday. It was her fastest time of the season and the second-fastest time in the state.
Anderson also easily won two events. On Thursday, the defending state champion finished the 3200 more than a minute and a half ahead of second place Gunnison, the only racer she didn't lap, then won Friday's 1600 by almost 17 seconds.
Anderson said she was hoping to better her time in the 3200, but with no competition to push her, "It didn't work out that way." Anderson is seeded fourth in the 1600, and fifth in the 3200, so she'll have plenty of competition there. At this point, there's not much she can do to prepare physically, so she's preparing for the psychological side of her race. "Mentally, I really need to be there and show up," she said after her 3200. She has a strategy in mind, but anything can happen. Mainly, she said, "I'll try not to let anyone get more than 10 or 20 yards ahead."
Senior teammate Nikki Buhrdorf also ran the 3200. A state qualifier in relays, Buhrdorf also qualified recently for the International Science and Engineering Fair, scheduled for May 13-18. She will represent the project she and Vikash Hypio entered, allowing Hypio to run at state.
"I'm really excited to be going to science fair, even though I'm really disappointed I'm not going to state track," said Buhrdorf, who plans to study the sciences in college. "I was sad at the start of the race, but that's what made me say, 'OK, you've got to go. This is your last run. You have to give it all you have."
Buhordorf ran her best race of the season to place fourth.
Savannah Rocha placed second in the high jump after clearing 4-10.5, and is ranked ninth in state with a height of 5-01.
Hotchkiss is qualified for state in all five relays. At league, the 400-meter team of Jessi Mautz, Kelli Buhrdorf, Arial Duncan and Aleksus Wilson placed fourth. The 800 sprint medley team of Mautz, Rocha, Kelli Buhrdorf and Wilson was third. The 800 team of Mautz, Rocha, Buhrdorf and Wilson and the 400 team of Mautz, Buhrdorf, Duncan and Wilson both placed fourth.
Kylie Hodges placed fifth in the shot put and Lindsey Todd was eighth. Hodges, a sophomore, will make her second appearance at state and is ranked 13th in the discus. Todd, a senior, placed eighth in the discus, and will make her first trip to state with a qualifying distance of 108 feet, 11 inches.
Also earning points were Kelli Buhrdorf, who finished seventh in the 100; Tiffany Clock, who finished seventh in the 1600; Isabel Silverstein, who was fifth in the triple jump, and Duncan and Silverstein, who placed sixth and eighth respectively in the 200.
Hotchkiss' girls earned 93 points to place third overall.

What happens when what you think does not agree with what you also think?
Whether you are aware of it or not, it happens all the time! That�s the phenomenon sophisticatedly known in psychology as cognitive dissonance. Let�s take an example we knew in our childhood.

Cabbage palm is a 30-40 ft. (sometimes taller) palm tree with fan-shaped leaves supported by hard, woody stalks. Cabbage palms are evergreens, shedding older leaves (stalk and all) as new ones emerge from the growing tip. The trunk is of uniform diameter from base to summit and mostly branchless. White flowers are numerous in large, much-branched, drooping clusters and are followed by shiny, black fruits. Medium-sized, spineless, evergreen palm with stout, unbranched trunk and very large, fan-shaped leaves spreading around top.
The trunks are used for wharf pilings, docks, and poles. Brushes and whisk brooms are made from young leafstalk fibers, and baskets and hats from the leaf blades. An ornamental and street tree, it is the northernmost New World palm and one of the hardiest. Formerly, plants were killed in order to eat the large leaf buds as a cabbagelike salad. The names are from the Spanish palmito, meaning small palm.

Saves Chase: Tommy Hunter headlines second chair and sleeper closers to target on draft day
There are a number of closer jobs up for grabs in Spring Training and even more situations where a player has earned the right to start the season with 9th inning duties but could find himself deposed at some point during the campaign. I'm never one to chase saves on draft day, settling for later options. With that in mind, here are ten situations that I'm keeping my eye on in...

Rain Barrels are earth friendly products
We offer you our #1 selling rain barrel, irrigation rain barrels (have two spigots) and popular wood rain barrel. We are the original designers of affordable rain barrels that connect directly to your rain gutters downspout tubes, have overflow valves and are only made from the best quality parts so they last a lifetime.
There is more to making rain barrels then just adding a spigot to a barrel. If things are not done just right your barrel(s) will leak within a few weeks. You will not find our rain barrels in large retail stores, we sell them exclusively here (to cut out the middleman) and ship them directly to your home or business.
See our 4 popular rain barrels below or read some testimonials then come back to visit this page afterwards. If 100% recycled plastic (important!), threaded brash spigots and overflows (for garden hose) AND free, fast shipping (to anywhere in the U.S) doesn't interest you, there is a list of more good reasons below. We sincerely appreciate your business. Thank you! -Aaron Pratt

Why buy Rain Barrels from us?
- Free Shipping - Feel free to compare, we give you a higher quality product at a lower price and deliver the rain barrels right to your door.
- High Quality Rain Barrel - Handles the heat of summer, direct sunlight and the cold of winter without any problems.
- Winter Proof - Our plastic rain barrels can be left out all winter (with their spigots open) and will look as good as new after many seasons of use. Read rain barrel in winter.
- Mosquito Proof - All our rain barrels are sealed, the only removable component is a 2" screw cap (plastic barrels) on the top that can also be used to monitor water level and for seasonal cleaning.
- Threaded Brass Spigots and Overflow Valves - We have it all covered, our spigots and overflows are threaded for ordinary garden hose, connect a hose to the spigot AND overflow valve and run them out into the yard! Auto-water your garden with the overflow every time it rains. New: We will install the spigot and/or overflow on the right or left side of the barrel if you prefer, email us after you order describing these details. Thanks!
- Rugged Recycled Plastic - Our rain barrels are made out of 25 pounds of thick, rugged 100% recycled (food grade) plastic. This plastic has to meet certain standards to be considered "food grade" material and it is perfect for rain barrels.
- Stealthy White - White blends into neighborhood house and trim colors the best, but if you would like to paint your rain barrels we offer free, easy to follow instructions.
- Non Translucent Plastic - Translucent plastic lets light in so algae will grow, all our barrels are non translucent so the rainwater stays fresh longer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by troseph Great, sturdy tent!
I purchased this to go atop my Xterra, seeing as we live in bear country, I think it will be a lot safer than a standard ground tent. Install was easy, all the parts were there, every thing went on easy.
Opening and closing this tent is EASY! Just grab the ladder, pull it down, and your bed is MADE. Seriously takes 20-30 minutes off the time of setting up camp.

The manufacturer does not give a minimum length or width of roof rack. However, if the width of the roof rack is more than 56 inches the mounting tracks on the tent will not work without extensions (available from the manufacturer). Thanks!1 of 1

I was told that if you have Professional 9 Pro you do not need to have the reader on as well, I have uninstalled the reader on my machine. College just got Pro and was working on a form, distributing form, everything was working fine. I noticed that she also had reader on, told her what I was told... to uninstall the reader.
She did, but then when she wanted to distribute the new form, it would not let her, it was greyed out.
So she reinstalled the free reader and now can distribute the form? What is with that?
Also now all the files she has in pdf are opening in Reader? Solutions are most appreciated. Thank YOU
If you remove Reader, you will likely have to repair Acrobat Pro. That is part of the problem with them both present in that they use shared resources and also have memory resident parts that drive folks up a wall. It is best to remove Reader and repair Pro. You should also update Pro to the latest version (9.1.1 I think).
You can probably do that, but it is not recommended. If you do it, you will have to deal with the memory resident portions that typically is the big hang up. Also, you will probably want to make Pro your default and bring up Reader only when needed. In either case, you will probably have to go to the task list and remove the memory resident part of one before the other will run. DO NOT remove AcroTray or you will not be able to create PDFs. It is not part of the running Acrobat.
Surely you have access to another machine that you can put Reader on !
You should be running the same enviornment when testing your form as your end users will. I assume most of them will only have Adobe Reader installed ? Therefore you should test on a machine that only has Reader installed. Otherwise you don't or won't know if your testing is "real world".

This Brew Pub is 4 years old but it was my first time there on a recent visit to neighboring Ottawa. I went first on a Saturday evening. There was music - Shawn Phillips. I had 3 beers that evening - LA Saison Haute: Just like a Saison should be. Tart / citrus, pepper on the palate, with a bone dry finish. The 8.5% alcohol was further proof of the high attenuation. One of the top 10 Saisons I have had. Next was a cask conditioned bourbon barrel aged Imperial Stout. Figs and plums with a strong bourbon - vanilla nose. Wonderful. Lastly - Carpe Diem - A blonde Belgium ale at 6.5%. It was perfectly in style, but nothing unique. The food was also fantastic. Farm to table, simple but elegant preparation.
I was so impressed I went back two days later for lunch. I had the Dumduminator - a Doppelweizenbock - strong and malty at 8% ABV. And finally the Trois Portage - A Belgium Triple @ 9% ABV. Pineapple and peach on the nose and palate, with a bitter sweet finish. It was a little cloudy for the style (probably served before the yeast fully floculated) but wonderful in taste.
This place ranks as one of the top Brewery / Pubs I have been to in North America (and I have been to many).

Finally accepted my friends invitation to Gatineau to visit this place. Just wasn't feeling it for some reason. Glad I changedmy mind.
I think this is the best food I've had at a brewpub. Better even than Trou du Diable... I've only eaten once at each place though...
Anyways, took the sampler flight of beers called l'horloge which includes about two good sips of all 12 beers for 18 bucks. Seemed expensive but it's not that bad. There were only two or three beers I didn't like. Much better than expected. Especially since I did not enjoy the Dumduminaor bottle purchased a couplemonths ago which was my first taste of this brewery.
Our table split all the food three ways: Some of the meatiest scallops I've ever had, beef and salmon carpaccio with some crazy dressings like green jelly and frozen horseradish, a perigord salad with choice pieces of duck and some of the best foie gras I've tasted, ribs which were ordinary but good and finally one of the best poutines I've tried. I'm not a very big fan of poutine but this one had some sort of pale brie sauce which seemed perfect. Brie also replaced the traditional curds and works amazingly well. Add smoky duck meat and, crisp fries and blueberries and you got one crazy, crazy-delicious poutine.
Prices seem expensive but it's really not that bad. Lots of brewpubs I know inMontreal will charge $9 for a sandwich or $14 for a small pizza. Here you can get a real plate, with food as carefuly thought out and crafted as the beer. Good beer drinkers usually like good food. I don't know why more brewoubs understand that.
Atmosphere is funny as it seems like one of the hip places in town so you get a lot of teenagers drinking pitchers, young couples on romantic dates and families.
Tap-lines run to two-table giving you a self-serve option for two of the best-selling beers. More of a novelty than anything else since price per ounce is the same.
The hostess seemed like a bitch. The kind of staff who thinks ''yeah I work here, we have tons of clients and if you're not happy about something just leave.'' Luckily, our waiter was a lot cooler. Knowledgeable and patient. Helped make the experience great.
All in all cool place with good beer and very interesting and tasty food. I hate driving long distances but I know I have to return.

Affectionately known as "The Brewpub" by my friend, a Gatineau native. We went here the night I arrived in town, as well as a night or two before I left. This was a while ago, so I'm just going on memory here. 3 hour time difference is not helping things. So we got there late, and got a round or two of tasters. The only beer I remember was the Framboyante. Was not bad for a fruit beer. Really can't remember much of what else was on tap, but that shouldn't matter. It's a beautiful building well worth seeing if you are in Ottawa.
First night was drinks, last night was for dinner. They make an absolutely devilish poutine (classical French/Quebecois dish), which I had for dinner and highly recommend. Overall a very nice place. Did not ever get too crowded, and even when there were a lot of people, it never felt too bad.

Went for lunch and a beer on a Tuesday afternoon, so the place was virtually empty. Atmosphere was quite nice; dark but classy, with lots of tables on a couple of levels, some of which had good views of the kitchen and brewing sections. I had their Carpe Diem beer, which was good; they also had 11 other of their own brews, plus a guest tap, I believe. Had the bison burger and fries, which were very tasty (a little pricey at $15, but worth it). Our waiter was extremely friendly and spoke excellent english, and chatted us up a little about the place.
I'd easily return here if in the area again, and I'd be interested in going for an evening sometime when I could try more than one of their beers.

Arrived on a Friday evening about 5:15pm without reservations (we decided to risk it, I'd suggest calling ahead and making them). We were seated almost immediately expect to be using French at the door, as mine is way out of date we struggled a bit. Our waiter was bilingual and quickly switched over to English to accommodate, I ordered the ESB my aunt asked the waiter to surprise her, he selected the Dunkel Wiezen which from my one sip was very well done as well. My cousin selected the chicken fingers being a typical child of my family and not wanting to venture anywhere unfamiliar, she did eat them all so they obviously passed. My aunt and I both selected the Bison burger with Gouda and bacon which was very tasty, the fries were also excellent. Menu wasn't overly expansive but decent. 13 beers on tap, 1 of which was a guest tap. Very upscale look and clientele, the brew master was enjoying friends at the table next to us. Over all was a bit pricey (12oz brew, 20oz brew, 2 milks, above mentioned dinners after tip came to $70) but was in line with the look and vibe of the place. If this were local I'd most likely be hanging around quite often, and about the nicest brewpub I've ventured to so far. Highly recommended.

Had lunch here with brewer Larry Kress. A large and beautiful brewpub along quaint creek. Modern facilities and are impressive. Large open kitchen with huge dining room and a spiraling pathway that goes down to the actual brewhouse, which is visible through glass walls. There is a large patio outside which overlooks the creek and there is a VIP room downstairs that is equipped for business meetings and wedding parties alike. Service was excellent. I had a cheese platter so I won't rate the food, but the platter was well priced and very generous in portion size. Beer here is very good. I tried all the beer and had seconds of the Pied du Courant. An absolute must visit for anyone in the area.

Beautiful brewpub located in an old hydro-electricity plant with great view on the river. This place is huge with an area where you can easily view the brewing area, a large bar area and a super big patio with a great view. Selection of 13 taps alternate between brewpub offering and some great QC micros. Service was not all that good in the beginning but management seem sot have work on the kinks. I haven't taste the food already so I can't really comment. The location is close to downtown and easily accessible and parking can easily be find anywhere close to the building. Definitely a place I will revisit in the future.

This brewpub is a unique and large place, just outside of downtown Ottawa. For the summertime, it is a must stop as there are many tables, room for more than 100 outside. Inside is a bit smaller in relationship, and I am told can get very crowded and not overly sociable to other groups at other tables. Service was attentive because we arrived just after opening on a Sunday and it only become moderately busy afterward.However people inside did not smile much, and outside were restaurant eople who did not know one beer from another even after several tries. Food, as tried by my party, was above average to good.The home brew is average, although shows promise for the furture with higher abv choices I was shown in a tour. There is also a private party space for rental that borders on a natural bit of water, with Canadian geese and the like, it is all very pretty. The bar is hand carved and very pretty. Great guest taps, most of which will be taken over by what will be host brewed. Prices are a bit expensive for Ottawa, but less than Toronto, and big US cities.

Brand new microbrewery in Gatineau, opened 21-MAY-2009. We visited on the 25th, after an apparently very busy weekend.
The atmosphere is nice, with a very large seating area above the kettle and fermenter (~12 tables in the bar area, ~20 in the large dining room, ~15 more outside). Though the restaurant was not very full, it was a chore to flag down our server. The chalkboard listed 6 beers on tap, though their menu showed 14 beers, all Quebec micros (with one Ontario cider). While they offer a sampler (L'Horloge) of 8 beers, I was re-buffed at every attempt to order one (I didn't mind doubling up on some to fill out 8, I didn't mind not having the proper tray, but the last excuse was that the taps were not set up for them [??]. Clearly it wasn't meant to be) I tried their very first beer, kegged only today: A Fin La Lumiere (Finally, the Light!) Very tasty. I also tried MacKroken Flower, a Quebec micro, also great (though they call it a quad, it looks like a Scottish beer).
Food-wise, the nachos were acceptable, but lacking in toppings. The cornet de frites (cone of fries) were good, with a choice of 4 different mayos.
Main course, I ordered a Dallaire bison burger, which was very dry and the Monterey Jack cheese was missing. My tablemates had the ribs (good, nothing special), Monferret bison burger (no complaints there) and shrimp (happily surprised at the number of shrimp on the plate, 8).
For dessert... We tried to get a menu, but they were out of everything but the cherry torte, so we passed (like I said, a busy weekend).
Besides the very-difficult-to-find server (never did get that garlic mayo for the fries), each of our four bills were wrong. Not his fault, they seemed to be entered incorrectly in the POS system. Some quick table math got us back where we wanted to be.
On the way out, I grabbed a sampler of the Marie-Framboise and Ginger beer, which were both great. Apparently the taps were working again...
So, I'm going to wait a while before going back, in the hopes that they work out the new restaurant kinks. There are plans for a beer museum to open in Sept. 2009, that looks to be interesting. Another neat thing about the bar is they have a couple of tables with built-in taps where you can serve yourself for a cost of $0.25/ounce. Seems like a great deal for a big group (who can all agree on one beer).
Beers on tap: BdT A Fin la Lumiere, St. Ambroise Outmeal Stout and Red, Marie-Framboise, Ginger Beer, MacKroken Flower, Belle Guelle (sorry, this is from memory).

Aggregation an Important Choice on the March 20th Ballot
Many Sierra Club members throughout Illinois as well as countless other Illinoisans have the chance to move toward cheaper, greener energy through an important referendum on the March 20, 2012 primary ballot. In August, 2009, the Illinois legislature passed Public Act 96-0176, amending the Illinois Power Agency Act by allowing local governments to "aggregate" electrical load for the benefit of residential and small business customers. This new law allows municipalities to act, in essence, as wholesale electricity buyers for their residents, with the goal of getting cheaper and possibly greener power for ratepayers (Oak Park, for example, has been able to buy 100% renewable-energy-sourced power for 25% less than residents were paying before aggregation). As a result, hundreds of thousands of voters in scores of municipalities will see a question about "Community Choice Electricity Aggregation" or CCA on their ballot in the March 20 primary. Aggregation, the last part of the deregulation process started over a decade ago, is a simple concept. Typically an electricity delivery company such as Com Ed (Illinois's biggest), which operates transmission lines and meters and handles billing, uses electricity from a primary source; in Com Ed's case, that company is Exelon Generation (both are subsidiaries of the parent company Exelon). Deregulation allowed electrical customers to choose suppliers of electricity other than the utility's default supplier. Individuals in the Com Ed and Ameren service areas already can choose alternate suppliers but relatively few have done so, in part because the process seems complicated and customers are leery of getting electricity from a new entity. Larger customers such as industrial, commercial, and governmental entities have been the main ones to pursue cheaper suppliers. "Aggregation" lets a county or municipality take the initiative to make a group contract on behalf of its citizens, assuming voters approve. Twenty Illinois municipalities have already done so and according to the Illinois Commerce Commission, hundreds more (including entire counties, such as Will County) are in the process of doing so by referendum. If a community aggregates, the same delivery and transmission companies still deliver the electricity, service the lines and transformers, and send out bills. For example, a customer in Evanston, if voters there approve aggregation, will still get a Com Ed bill. Only the supplier name and (presumably) raw electricity price on the bill will change. It's not mandatory, either; customers who want to stick with Exelon as their supplier can "opt out," and customers who already are using an alternate supplier will also retain that relationship. Casting a vote on aggregation is a good reason to participate in the upcoming election March 20. It's an opportunity to achieve real savings while increasing demand for and use renewable energy. For more information, and a flyer that you can forward (or print and hand out) to friends and family, see this downloadable Sierra Club Fact Sheet.

Comments about Champro Youth Value Pull Up Baseball Pant:
Bought these for my 4 year old for t-ball. The smallest size fits him well, so that's awesome. The problem is that they don't have belt loops, so you can't wear the pants with a belt. Likely won't be able to play in these once we get to umpires officiating.

Errico is delighted that the role of Clara finally gets her back to her Italian roots. "Yes," she says, running her hand across a wild tangle of pitch-black hair, "all this hair is invited to the show. Off-Broadway style: we don't wear wigs. They cast me for my hair. I'm cheaper than buying a wig for some straight-haired redhead."
The real thing that connects her to the role is the one thing that disconnects her from Giorgio. "What draws me to the part — and what I have to bring to it — is something I didn't remember when I first saw the show: Clara is a mother. She has a small child. I have three. I'm at that place in life where I'm using my maturity and sense of responsibility. [Clara is] having an affair because she's lonely in her marriage, but she's not able to leave her family life. This responsibility to the child keeps her from completely loving Giorgio as Fosca does — unedited, unnegotiated.
"I hope the audience feels Clara's loneliness and what it is to be a mother and still have a sexual self. It's a complicated process, though. I've already told some of my 'mom friends' that I'm playing a mother who's having an affair, and nearly all of them said, 'Oh, I can't wait to come' because people have these secret desires. Motherhood really makes them secret because you have a love and an instinct for that child above your own needs."
Because Clara and Giorgio are separated geographically for most of the play, their love scenes turn into love letters. There is a particularly sensual passage that Errico says she looks forward to singing every night:
Imagining your fingers touching mine,
Imagining our room,
The bed, the secrecy, the world outside,
Your mouth on mine…"
Absence, it seems, makes the heart hot and bothered. If that's not passion, what is?
(This feature appears in the February 2013 Off-Broadway edition of Playbill magazine.)

Welcome to Inklingo!
Inklingo Shape Collections are big PDF files which open with Adobe Reader, so you can print pages of shapes on fabric. Fabric goes through the printer just like paper when it is ironed to freezer paper.I draw the layouts of shapes to use fabric efficiently. You print them. It's fast and it's simple!Printing on fabric makes everything possible, whether you are sewing hexagons, triangles, or any other design.Three simple things work together to make Inklingo perfect for quilters.
1. Test PagesPrint a test on a scrap of fabric so you can be sure the ink in your printer will wash out even after pressing. All 20 Inklingo colors probably will wash out.It doesn't hurt to leave ink in the quilt, but you need to test to be sure it will not bleed or show on the front.
(Illustrated on the blog)Test Pages give you confidence.
2. Custom Page SizesInklingo uses a feature in the software of ordinary printers which allows you to print any size to use fabric efficiently to get exactly the number of shapes you need.
Before Inklingo, I had only printed standard sizes and I did not know I could enter other sizes in the print dialog box. It's easy, but there are step-by-step instructions under the Support tab.When you have done it once, you are an expert. You can print the shapes for anything from Grandmother's Flower Garden to New York Beauty and Feathered Star!
3. Layouts of shapesI recommend an ordinary 8.5 inch wide printer for Inklingo, but all of the layouts are 13 x 19. This gives us many more options for printing exactly what we need without wasting fabric. Sometimes 11.75 or 12 inches is just right.This flexibility is great for yardage or for scraps and Jelly Rolls. It also means it is easier to see how much fabric is required.Inklingo PDFs have hundreds of pages because each layout of shapes is provided 20 times on 20 pages, each a different ink color and line weight to show on almost any fabric.When you have the lines printed on the fabric, you can sew by hand or by machine.
Most quilters are hooked on Inklingo as soon as they see their first sheet of fabric printed with Inklingo shapes, so we want you to print your first sheet now.
The lines are very fine and perfect, and the advantages are clear—it is easier to cut on a line without any measuring, and it is easier to sew with a line to follow.
Print your first shapes in the next few minutes by following these steps. (Printer Friendly Version)

Order at least two free items from the Getting Started page (under the SHOP tab) • the FREE Inklingo Shape collection, $20 value, free • the Guided Tour (PDF)
While you are shopping for the free collection, consider the free patterns too. Tilde's Tiny Totes pattern is perfect for Inklingo beginners and it uses the free shape collection.
Why do I have to place an order before I download?Free downloads have the same copy protection as the others, so when you decide to pay for an Inklingo download there are no surprises. This free offer is an incentive to learn how to download. You are only asked for your address and password, and nothing is ever shared. (There is a link to the privacy policy at the bottom of every page.) When you discover the benefits of Inklingo as a quilting tool, we know you'll be back.
Even though these items are free, it is a normal checkout procedure (add to cart, checkout at top right of window), except that you don't have to enter credit card info.
The checkout procedure sets up your account and password. You receive a receipt by e-mail, just as if you were buying something.
Your privacy is protected. Your e-mail address, name, and address will not be misused or result in spam. (See the link to the Privacy Policy at the bottom of every page on this site.)
It is as easy as can be. There are step-by-step instructions under the SUPPORT tab. (That's where Monkey 'hides' good stuff.)
The most common booboo is trying to open with Mac Preview or another PDF viewer. Inklingo requires Adobe Reader (free software).
The very first thing you should do EVERY time you open an Inklingo shape collection is open the Bookmarks panel on the left side of the Adobe Reader window. Every time!
Explore the free shape collection and take the Guided Tour to become familiar with the way the shapes are organized.
Many quilters do not take full advantage of the cool navigation tools in Adobe Reader, but the Guided Tour explains Bookmarks and more. There is also a two minute video on the Getting Started Page (under the SHOP tab).
One of the side effects of Inklingo is that you will learn some nifty stuff about using your computer for other things too.
Just a suggestion: Print page 301 (page 263 in first version) on the wrong side of a scrap of light/medium fabric 8.5 x 11. Make sure Page Scaling is set to "none" in the print dialog box, so the shapes print the right size. (It will be printed like the yellow fabric at the top of this page.)
If you have never printed on fabric before, I recommend that you review the first chapter of The Inklingo Handbook. It is included in the free collection on pages H5-H48. Chapter 1 includes everything you need to know about printing on fabric.
As long as there is a firm bond between the fabric and the freezer paper, jams are rare. (Always wash fabric first to remove the sizing. Otherwise, the freezer paper is not likely to stick well enough.)
In a nutshell: Use a hot, dry iron (no steam) and press on the paper side and the fabric side. The tips in Chapter 1 are great.
When you see those precise diamonds, triangles, and squares coming out of your Inkjet printer, we think you will want to print another sheet of fabric right away in a contrasting fabric, so you can mix the shapes to sew two mirror image LeMoyne Star blocks for Tilde's Tiny Totes.
Now that you have seen how simple it is to print on fabric, you are ready for more.
My "Top Ten Tutes" are on the All About Inklingo blog, including:
• How to Print Custom Page Sizes to make the best use of your fabric• How to test Inkljet ink on fabric and choose the right ink color • The Inklingo Quiz (just for fun)
You have become an Inklingoist.
You can choose shapes for your first Inklingo project from the Index of Shapes or the Shop or the Smart Shopper's Idea Book. Let the fun begin!

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Patrick Leahy
United States Senator
Statement of Senator Patrick Leahy, Over the course of this year in the Judiciary Committee, we have seen a number of firsts. At the first nominations hearing of the year, for the first time ever, Republicans unilaterally scheduled three controversial circuit court nominees at one hearing contrary to a long-established agreement and practices of the Committee. Then we saw Republicans declare that the longstanding Committee rules protecting the rights of the minority would be broken when Rule IV was violated. A rule that was adopted 25 years ago -- in order to balance the need to protect the minority Members of the Committee with the desire of the majority to proceed -- was unilaterally reinterpreted to override the rights of the minority for the first time in our history. For the first time ever this year Republicans insisted on proceeding on nominations that the Committee had previously voted upon and rejected after full and fair hearings and debate. Of course that followed the first ever resubmission by a President of the names of defeated nominees for appointment to those same judgeships. Several other practices were reversed from when a Democratic President was making nominations in light of the Republican affiliation of the current President. This Committee has proceeded on nominations that did not have the approval of both home-state Senators. Moreover, this Committee altered its prior practice and overrode the objections of home-state Senators to vote on the nominations of Carolyn Kuhl in spite of the opposition of both home-state Senators. Then, in connection with a nomination to the circuit court from Michigan, this Committee for the first time proceeded with a hearing in spite of the opposition of both home-state Senators. The hearing on the nomination of Michael Fisher to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit is also unprecedented. Never before to my knowledge has a President nominated to a lifetime position on a federal circuit court or this Committee held a hearing on a judicial nominee with an outstanding jury verdict naming him as personally liable for civil rights violations. In February 2003, a federal jury in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania found that Mr. Fisher and other high level officials of the Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General violated the civil rights of two plaintiffs, former narcotics agents with the Bureau of Narcotics Investigation (BNI) in Philadelphia. Never before in the history of federal judicial nominees of which I am aware, has a nominee ever come before this Committee with an outstanding judgment against him for so serious a claim. The jury verdict is so recent that the trial transcript has only been delivered to the parties within the last several weeks, and so complex that even Mr. Fisher and his lawyers have asked for extensions of time in order to complete their post-trial motions. Soon a federal district court trial judge will be called upon to review the verdict against a person the President has nominated to the Court of Appeals that review all appeals from that trial judge's court. In addition, if the jury verdict is sustained by the trial court, an appeal would lie to the very court to which Mr. Fisher has been nominated. These, too, appear to be unique circumstances. Accordingly, this is a most unusual proceeding. As the Administration and Republican majority have abandoned traditional practices and standards we are being confronted with more and more difficulties. The few judicial nominations on which the Senate has withheld a final vote this year have each presented extraordinary circumstances or nominees with extreme positions. During the years in which President Clinton was in the White House, Republicans attempted a number of filibusters and, when they were in the majority, successfully prevented votes on more than 60 judicial nominees, including a number of nominees to the federal courts in Pennsylvania. I begin this hearing without having reached a determination about this nomination. I am troubled by the jury verdict. I have heard from a number of supporters of Mr. Fisher whose opinions I value that they believe him qualified to serve as a judge of the Third Circuit nonetheless. Today, we will also hear from two distinguished district court nominees. Magistrate Judge Sharpe comes to the Committee with the support of both of his home state Senators. He served as a prosecutor for over two decades before being selected to be a magistrate judge in the Northern District of New York. Not surprisingly, Judge Sharpe received a unanimous well-qualified rating from the ABA. The other district court nominee before us today, Judge Dale Fischer, also received the ABA's highest rating and has significant judicial experience. She is nominated to a newly-created seat in the Central District of California and was recommended by the bipartisan selection commission established by Senators Feinstein and Boxer. The senators from California have worked hard to maintain this local mechanism that recommends consensus nominees for the district courts in their state. Judge Fischer is the latest example of the outstanding nominees to emerge from the California bipartisan selection commission. We welcome both district court nominees and their families to the hearing today. |
