London Track and Field Round Up: Great Britain Dominates At Home
Both rounds of the Games in London featured exhilarating track and field performances. Oakley athletes of all kinds succeeded during the second round of competition (especially those from the host nation).
Richard Whitehead of Great Britain shined brightly in front of his home crowd of 80,000 people. Whitehead took top billing in the T42 200m race. His time of 24.38 was also a new world record. The 36-year-old double amputee was the only athlete to begin from a standing position and even slipped at the start. He came from behind to take the title, breaking his own world record in the meantime. Celebrating in grand fashion, flexing his biceps across the finish line, Whitehead got the home crowd to erupt in a frenzy.
"Today I came and saw and conquered," Whitehead said. "That's why I gave the two-gun salute at the end."
In the T12 100m women's race, Libby Clegg of Great Britain gave a valiant second place performance on her home track. Clegg has a congenital eye condition called Stargardt's macular dystrophy disease. She has only slight peripheral vision in her left eye and is registered blind. As a result, she runs with a guide, Mikail Huggins.
"You have to be completely in synch and get the start absolutely right," she says of her partnership with Huggins. "We're kind of a team — wherever I go, he goes."
Clegg's brother, James, who has the same condition, was also competing in London. The siblings' family and Libby's boyfriend, sprinted from the pool where James took third place in the S12 100m butterfly, to see Libby place second in her race.
Finally, in the F42/44 long jump event, Stef Reid also claimed a second place prize for the host nation. The 27-year-old jumped a lifetime best mark of 5.28 meters to place second in London. The jump also stood as a Games record for the F44 classification.
"There is something to be said for putting your heart and soul into it," Reid stated. "It's a fabulous feeling to know you have given it everything you can. I'll be ready to fight again next time."
It was a great showing track and field during competition in London. Congratulations to all the Brits who performed at the highest stage in front of their countrymen and women.

I first heard of them when i herad the song "Kryptonite" which i am sure everyone has heard. I liked that song right away. This is a great album. My favorite tracks are Let Me Go, Be Somebody, Right Where I belong, and The Real Life. Give those tracks a listen and you will like this CD too.
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
Ever since "Kryptonite", I've been a fan of Three Doors Down. They've always kept originality, which bands like Nickelback, 311, and others have lost. Well, sadly, we might have to add Three Doors Down. I guess being away from the sun so much made them lose originality.
Looking for "The Better Life", you'll become dissappointed. Looking for "Away From The Sun", you will also become dissappointed.
About 90% of the songs on this album are slow, and quite tiring and boring after awhile, but "Live For Today" and "Right Where I Belong" as being exceptions. Actually, I do go for more slower songs. But, I don't like slow songs scattered around the CD.
I don't see anything truly dramatic or outstanding on the CD. There may be some radio airplay, but I don't think any of them will become #1 like "Kryptonite", "When I'm Gone", or "Here Without You". All of the songs are good, but not outstannding. I'd recommend lowering your expectations before buying this CD.
Maybe they are trying a different style, or maybe they are leftovers from earlier albums. You decide. Now, time for the vitamin shot, and on to the next CD.
People trying to compare 3 Doors down to their First CD..The Better life..Should stop..this band has changed it's sound..and they're better for it..I'll just go track by track..
Right where I Belong-Fast and Furious opener with great heavy guitar work..Solid opener.
It's Not Me-Probably Their 2nd Single..Arnold Explodes in the chorus..Their next radio hit for sure.
Let Me Go-You've all heard it..probably the stand out track on the album.
Be Somebody-My Favorite So far..Arnold reaches deep into his emotions to bring out a song that anyone could relate too..beautifully done.
Landing in London-A Modern Turn the Page..With an appearence by Seger himself..Probably the third single..again slow and mellow.
The Real Life-A little harder..this is more for fans of the Better life..Which I didn't like too much..Skippable track for me.
Behind those eyes-Another one of my favs..Good work on guitars..Solid Ballad..Again Arnold's Vocals are damn near flawless.
Never will I break-Hard Track here..not my thing really..but still likeable.
Fathers Son-The Lyrics are quite intense and spooky..And I belive theres an opera in one part,hard rocking fun song..
Live for today-Like it..signature 3 Doors Down..don't want to spoil it for you..
My world-Damn similar to Road I'm On From Away From the Sun..This track is short..but it really builds up from the beginning with frantic hard rock in the middle..well done.
Here By Me-Easily the slowest Track 3 Doors Down has ever done..sappy sappy lyrics..and you know what..I like it…Arnold can sing anything well..and proves it here.
In conclusion..people need to get over themselves..3DD is never going to make another Kryptonite..so Stop asking for one..They show great diversity..and Go from Metallica to Country to Soft Rock Flawlessly..which many bands can't do…So if you're looking for Excelent Ballads..Fun Rock..and touching lyrics..Or just want to have a good time listening to an Album…this is for you.
"Seventeen Days" sees 3 Doors Down take their Southern rock style and give it a harder, more metal edge (thanks in no small part to producer Johnny K, who has also worked with Disturbed and Drowning Pool). "The Real Life" alternates a wall of sound with more restrained choruses (perhaps they were influenced by Nickelback during their summer tour in 2004?), and harder/angrier songs like "For Today" and "Right Where I Belong" definitely show that 3DD is heading in a more hard-rock direction.
But the group returns to its trademark sound in the final track, the ballad "Here By Me", which blends a quiet melody with tender lyrics and a deeply personal vocal delivery.
All in all, it's definitely a solid album if you are a fan of this band.
With their third studio album "Seventeen Days," 3 Doors Down have cemented their status as a formidable force in the music scene. The LP, while not as instantly likable as 2002's "Away From the Sun," maintains the group's radio-friendly tendencies for captivating melodies and cutting lyrics.
The set's lead single, "Let Me Go," a sizeable hit across several different radio formats, best summarizes the strength of the group. Still, superb cuts further abound, such as the stirring "It's Not Me," which was previously released on their 2003 live EP "Another 700 Miles." Over the top with conviction and passion, the performance is even stronger in its studio rendition.
The grating "Never Will I Break" and the soaring "Live For Today" rock hard and summon repeated listens, while "Father's Son" serves as a gripping tale of the plight of an illegitimate child.
"Maybe I'm just crazy or the devil got inside/But either way my soul is gone/I've learned this all night/The one hand throws the whiskey/And the other throws the gun/As he cries out to the heavens/I am not my father's son."
"Landing In London," which is performed with classic rock legend Bob Seger, examines the life of a traveling musician longing for his home and family, while the following "The Real Life," quite possibly is a continuation of the story:
"But I woke up to real life/And I realized its not worth running from anymore/When there was nowhere left to hide I found out/That nothings real here but I wont stop now /Until I find a better part of me."
"Be Somebody," which explores the relationship between a son and his mother, shoots a bulls-eye at the heart. So too does the concluding "Here By Me," a tale of longing for that special someone who does not reciprocate the same feelings, which is accompanied by gut-seizing instrumentation that perfectly mirrors the somber state of mind the lyrics create.
Despite the fact that it is permeated by gloomy subject matter with lyrics that range from unadulterated defiance to the deepest sorrow, "Seventeen Days" is filled from top to bottom with potential smash-hits, making it the group's most solid release yet. Fans of the mainstream post-grunge sound that are going through difficult times will not be able to put this CD down. After all, whoever said despair couldn't sound awesome?

Today's weather forecast: Dreamy
As summer temperatures begin to slip into our spring, my thoughts always turn to the North Woods Inn. The snow on the roof offers an initial chillusion of cool, but just one step inside that cavernous and highly air-conditioned log cabin will shake off all memories of the beating sun outside. Enjoy the sawdust on the floor; the bear traps on the walls, and soon a man in a plaid vest will serve you the hearty fare of the 19th century frontier.

And a nation can breathe easily once again – for now at least.
England's 1-0 victory over Slovenia ensured that the 'Golden Generation' avoided the ignominy of a miserable group stage exit in what is likely their final shot at a World Cup triumph.
Prior to the game, parallels with both the World Cup in 1986 and 1990 had been made given the sticky start England had made in this years tournament. Both in Mexico (1986) and Italy (1990), England had stuttered out of the gate before victory in their final group game ensured progression to the knock out stages where momentum built and took them on before suffering heartbreaking losses to Argentina (in the quarter-finals of Mexico '86) and West Germany (on penalties at Italia'90).
So far in South Africa, there have been injury problems (Rio Ferdinand), no clear choice of goalkeeper (Robert Green cast aside after his slip against the USA), a very public critique of the manager (John Terry) and a pair of performances (Slovenia and USA) that left an awful lot to be desired.
Against the backdrop of unrest and uncertainty though, England – as they are somehow able to do at World Cup time – found a way to come through. A change of personnel (if not necessarily tactics) and approach good enough to overcome a plucky, if limited Slovenia side.
And perhaps with the footballing gods looking down, Landon Donavan's last gasp goal on the stroke of the final whistle in the England game meant the USA leapfrogged England to top Group C and bring old foes Germany and Argentina (possible quarter final opponents) onto the horizon. Incidentally, not only did the goal ensure the USA avoided, cruelly, an early exit, but winning the group sees them with a favourable route through the remainder of the tournament.
Looking back at Mexico '86, England started off poorly, going down 1-0 to Portugal in their opening game before a miserable 0-0 draw against Morocco also saw captain Bryan Robson go off with a shoulder injury after just four minutes and Ray Wilkins later sent off. The final group game, against Poland, meant only a win by two goals would suffice. It also meant a reshuffled line-up with Peter Reid and Steve Hodge coming into midfield and Peter Beardsley replacing Mark Hateley in attack.
The result however was never really in doubt as a Gary Lineker hat-trick in the first thirty minutes blew the Poles away and saw England progress in second place.
The last sixteen then saw the Lineker-Beardsley combination in full effect as Paraguay were swept aside 3-0 before England fell to both the infamous 'Hand of God' goal and later one of the all time great World Cup goals from Diego Maradona as they were defeated 2-1 by Argentina.
Four years later in Italy, England once again started poorly. Opening up with a pair of draws against the Republic of Ireland and Holland, the player's lobbied manager Bobby Robson hard for a switch in formation. Heeding their pleas, England altered their approach and despite a nervy performance in their last group game, a header from Mark Wright secured a 1-0 victory over Egypt and progression as group winners.
Bolstered by this, England suddenly found their stride and momentum (not to mention a shade of luck) as a goal from David Platt in the final minute of extra time saw them progress at the expense of Belgium, whilst a back and forth game in the quarter-finals against Cameroon required two penalties to go through by a 3-2 margin. Old enemies West Germany were waiting in the semi-final, having moved through the tournament much slicker and with greater ease than England, but the teams could not be separated at the end of an enthralling encounter that ended 1-1 but the German's held their nerve to win the penalty shoot-out.
Fast forward to 2010 then and parallels can clearly be drawn. Perhaps no side has to deal with the weight of such anticipation from media and public alike, with the squad and the every movement placed under such scrutiny.
At times, the squad appeared unable to cope with the expectations. Form and experience gained at club level seemed to count for little with the added pressures of the Three Lions.
The performance against Slovenia, whilst not sensational, was both an improvement and will have clearly garnered a squad, who, if nothing else are desperate to perform. And whilst finishing second sees England forced to navigate a trickier path, a backs to the wall situation often draws out the English strengths where passion and pride are often found in greater abundance than technique and ability.
If England had to face any opponent in a 'do or die' game then Germany would perhaps be the perfect fit. This German squad possess the technical abilities of the German sides of the past, but has a more youthful and cosmopolitan look, a plus point on one hand but they are without question a less experienced and imposing side than England and have not entirely convinced after their impressive opening to the tournament where Australia were dismantled 4-0.
Like the sides of tournaments past, England, when it mattered, managed to pull themselves through a sticky patch. Momentum and timing can be a very funny thing in the world of sports. Given the history between England and Germany, there is no telling just what a win over them could mean to this England side. Suddenly the doubts and apprehension would be blown away. The injuries, lack of form and in fighting all long forgotten as a galvanised squad strides forward.
Just like the tournaments past.

The Johnson County Sheriff's Department said the women found shot to death in a Shawnee park were twin sisters and are calling their deaths a double suicide.
Authorities later confirmed they were Sharon E. Bartley and Susan E. Howard, both of Johnson County.
Relatives of the two women said they are in complete shock and there are many unanswered questions. They said they aren't ready to speak to the media about the tremendous loss.
The gruesome discovery of the two middle-aged women shot dead near the Barker Trail Access on the Gary L. Haller Trail in Mill Creek Streamway Park in Shawnee had neighbors shocked and concerned.
"This is my home. I grew up here. I mean, this is the first time I've ever heard of anything like this happening around here," neighbor Nathan Alt said.
Investigators said a passer-by spotted the bodies near a trail, located on Barker Road just north of Shawnee Mission Parkway, in the park about 3 p.m. Wednesday and called 911. The Johnson County Sheriff's Department said the bodies were about 150 yards into the park on the trail.
Jesse Porter heard what he believes were the shots that killed the women.
"At least five in rapid succession. There's probably more than that, but I know I heard at least five shots," he said.
On Wednesday, as the investigation continued, a Johnson County sheriff's deputy on scene said a gun was recovered at the scene and they weren't looking for a shooter.
Authorities also said they connected the sisters to a car parked nearby.
"Right now it's under investigation as two deceased bodies in the park," Johnson County Deputy Rick Howell said Wednesday when asked if they were classifying the incident as a double homicide.
As night fell, deputies went door-to-door questioning neighbors. Knowing that investigators were not looking for a shooter gave residents some peace of mind after the tragic day.
One of the women lived in a home off of 51st and Maple streets in Mission, KS. She had moved out a few months ago and the house remained empty.
Her next-door neighbor said detectives came knocking on his door Wednesday night, asking questions about her. The neighbor said he's shocked by the news and never saw any major signs of trouble.
"I honestly can't imagine. I don't know what goes on here, why people do this and it's just blown me away," Stuart West said. "I knew her as a nice neighbor, that was it. One time she told me that she couldn't find work, I knew that about her, but that was many months ago. Then she said they were moving to Roeland Park and suddenly she was happy about it."

I really can't say how Canon decides what products to bring to market. I imagine it is a rather complex process with far too many "moving parts". I work at a very large, established company that develops online educational platforms. From the outside things look very simple and cohesive, but decision making processes are extremely complex, usually involve hundreds of people, and take a very long time. We have an 80-step process that must be followed to patent anything, that spans at least 7 departments.
Given how large and established Canon is...I'd imagine their decision making processes are fairly similar, at least on the complexity front. Although them being a Japanese company, things are probably more orderly and refined (something the Japanese excel at, where as American companies tend to get mired too deeply into political infighting, empire building, petty squabbling, etc.)
I think that they need to watch out for too many lines cropping up (no pun intended) that makes the buying decision difficult. In the DSLR world, it used to be an easy decision:
xxxD (e.g. 450D, aka Rebel) as the entry level DSLR
1Dx as the professional DSLR
xxD as a little of both worlds
The clear distinctions in terms of price point and functionality made my choice of the 20D very easy.
Now I'm pulling out the precious few hairs that I have left trying to figure out what to get as an upgrade for my aging 20D. I'll never earn a dime with my photos; my preferred subjects are wildlife/birds, but I would love to try landscapes as well. I was thinking 7D for a while, but longing after a 5DIII. I have been holding out hope that the 5DIII would reach a price point where I can mention it to my better half with a straight face. It's starting to get there, but now the 7DII is on the horizon, so I may wait to see what it looks like in terms of specs/price. I keep dragging my feet, and Canon is missing at least one sale (mine) as a result.
[My prediction - I'll buy a 5DIII towards the end of the year unless the 7DII really rocks. I bought my 20D right after the 30D was introduced to take advantage of the price drop.]
Don't get me wrong, it is better for the consumer to have more choices, but with so many options now, I question the ROI on some models. Is the DSLR market really big enough to support so many choices from one company? It's starting to feel like GM of 5-10 years ago.

Funny you should mention the boxy torso. After looking closely at some reference pics, I realized that his torso is really just strait lines, and very smooth except for the center panels. I thought the technic plates captured a subtle curve very well while still retaining his look. I do agree, though, that the waist should be a little narrower compared to the shoulders. However, the waist has to be that wide to be stable, and broadening the shoulers would neccecitate making him a bit taller, and he's straining my available parts already. Thanks for the C&C!
This. Just, wow.I never knew I wanted this, but now I can see the truth. Anyways, the face is great, I love what you did there, but the body is kind of boxy and lackluster. I can't think of what you could do to fix it, but there is that.But, no really, this is awesome. Well done and good luck with the contest!

U.S. Supreme Court
Is the 'Anonymous Justice' Souter Considering Retirement?
Posted May 13, 2008 9:38 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
At least one U.S. Supreme Court watcher has speculated that Justice David H. Souter has become disenchanted with life on the Supreme Court and may soon retire.
Souter guards his privacy to such an extent that Bloomberg News calls him the "anonymous justice." He told a congressional panel in 1996 that Supreme Court proceedings could be broadcast "over my dead body." He shuns interviews and bars cameras from his speeches.
"Souter in some ways is a throwback," the Bloomberg story says. "He has little use for computers and other modern technology. He told senators at his 1990 confirmation hearing that he still owned a black-and-white television set." Yet he also wrote a 2005 opinion finding that Internet file sharing firms may be held responsible for illegal downloading.
A former Souter clerk, Meir Feder of Jones Day, said the liberal justice was upset about the decision in Bush v. Gore blocking an election recount in Florida. Another former clerk, University of Pennsylvania law professor Kermit Roosevelt, said Souter is frustrated that he cannot change others' minds.
Supreme Court specialist Thomas Goldstein has predicted that Souter still step down after the next president takes office. "He has not shied away from letting the people around him understand that he does not view this as a lifetime job,'' he told Bloomberg.

The shipping was very quick.But aramex courier partner in my area was bit dull and unfriendly.Regarding the product first of all its not a 7 in one attachment.the 7 th one is the pouch and stand.The precision trimmer attached with beard comb do all facial styles with ease.the user manual is just a set of pictures.and u can wash all the attachments in water expect the machine.from my experience the motor is very powerful.The foil shaved and nose and ear and eye brow trimmer too need a mention,they do get the job done.For ken who want to flaunt different styles at a cheap price its defiantly...

Got my product in flat 2 days..Great Service by Flipkart.
Well the product is extremely good. It delivers its promise. Got to use further to check out the cons - if any.
One thing though, this pack has 4 actual attachments 2 plastic extensions (which is used with the other attachments for height adjustments) The machine itself - Thus making the total count as 7.
I bought this on 14th Jan and got it by 16th Jan. The Flipkart service was good as usual. But the product it more good than it looks in the image. Provides very good trimming upto 2mm. It cannot go lower than that but.
WARNING : it makes hell of a noise while in operation, it seems not a big thing now, but the amount of noise it makes,its hard for you to trim at night if your family is sleeping and you live in a apartment. Morning it's no problem at all. But every trimmer makes noise.
The charging indicator is on the adapter rather than on the trimmer. The charging stand has capacity to put... (Expand)

Normally it is very bad when u search for a product on Friday and place a order. Thinking at back of your mind, that the next 2 days will be weekends, and whether the product will reach on monday or tuesday.
Flipkart solve your worries in no time, they send the product through their personal courier and they shipped the product to me(to chennai) on sunday itself. The product came with a power packed packing and it works looks awesome.
To comment on the product it is one of the best trimmers i have used(used a couple of local brands and a panasonic shaver). It is worth the price and the bla... (Expand)
Great product. I've been using it for over a couple of years now without any problem. But unfortunately I've not grown accustomed to the attachments. I'm just using the basic machine which I could've got for much cheaper. (View complete review)
this is really a very nice product , i am using it from last 3 years and it works great . but only problem i got is regarding the quality of combs . the teeth of comb broke away easily , i suggest you to improve its quality . (View complete review)
I bought one in 2011, and needed another one for a friend. I am shocked that the prices have been doubled. Bought the same for 2.1k. Hard to digest. Apart from this unreasonable price and loud sound, this has been an excellent product. Even after 3 years of continuous usage, the battery backup is... (View complete review)
Overall an amazing product. Nothing to complain about.
Battery is long lasting and the accessories are good enough to take care of all your shaving and trimming needs.

Hundreds came out to follow in the footsteps of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with a street named in his honor in Harrisonburg.
Traffic came to a halt Monday so that those paying tribute could parade through the newly named Martin Luther King, Jr. Way. Historic Cantrell Avenue will now share a name with the famous civil rights pioneer.
Students, leaders and members of the community gathered at James Madison University's Memorial Hall before the big ribbon-cutting ceremony and dedication walk. Those who participated say King paved the way for many.
"Martin Luther King, Jr. died, but that wasn't the end of his goal, but what we want to do here today is continue what Martin Luther King Jr. - continue his dream here in Harrisonburg, Virginia, and revive his dream," said Samuel Cooper, a Spotswood High School student.
Speakers at the ceremony said King's message of equality, unity and peace still sets an example for society, and that the naming of this road will help people remember his mission.
The Harrisonburg City Council and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Coalition led the dedication walk Monday afternoon.

After plenty of preparation and surviving Black Friday, a few local businesses in Canyon were all ready for Small Business Saturday. That promotional idea began back in 2010 when American Express started encouraging people to "shop locally" the Saturday following Thanksgiving. A concept store owners believe is great for a few reasons.
"For one, small businesses usually shop local themselves so the money is staying in your town," said Mardee Matlack, owner of Reuze Thrift Store in Canyon.
"It is crucial, I mean we're supporting local artists," added Tarra Teel, store associate for the Silver Turtle also in Canyon. "A lot of out furniture is refinished by the local people so that, you're just directly stimulating the economy."
Plus, the atmosphere of smaller businesses isn't quite what you're used to seeing the weekend following Thanksgiving, such as the mobs of people fighting over the newest technology and discounted items.
"It is nice to go the big city and to have the hype, to have the discounts but sometimes people like to take their time and shop," said Matlack. "Canyon has ample parking and people can just meander in and out of the shops."
Reuze is only one of 19 locally owned businesses on the Canyon square. There, owners said they saw about a 60 percent increase in profits on Friday and expect to see even more Saturday.
"Twice as many people walking through the store, than normal," explained Matlack.
"I've been blown away each day and every weekend with the amount of traffic we have," added Teel. "So we're expecting a good turnout."
Proof people of the Panhandle like to shop big, while supporting the small.

South Alabama is among the four teams making the leap to FBS football this year, along with UMass, Texas State and UT-San Antonio. The other three are included in NCAA Football 13, but not the Jaguars. Why not?
"South Alabama was a provisional member of FBS last year and did not play a full FBS schedule," EA Sports communication manager Julie Foster told SB Nation. "We did not receive confirmation that they were changing to a full FBS schedule this year until it was too late for inclusion in NCAA Football 13. South Alabama will be included in NCAA Football 14."
Requests for further clarification were not responded to.
Specifically, I'm curious about how the process works, considering USA announced in 2011 that it would go through a provisional FBS schedule in 2012 and join as a full-time Sun Belt member in 2013, though it would still very much be an official FBS program this year. If someone at USA failed to make the program's plans very clear to EA Sports, you'd have to think that mixup feels like a major missed marketing opportunity for a school that's looking to put itself on the national map.

Film lovers turn out for San Diego Film Festival salute to director Gus Van Sant in La Jolla
San Diego Film Festival board President Kevin Leap, Pennie Lane and Tomas Tonder
By Pat Sherman
A bevvy of Hollywood stars walked the red carpet Thursday night, Sept. 27, at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla for the San Diego Film Festival's tribute to filmmaker Gus Van Sant ("Milk," "To Die For," "My Own Private Idaho").
Following a VIP cocktail reception on the museum's ocean-front patio, attendees gathered in Sherwood Auditorium where San Diego Film Foundation board chairman Dale Strack, actress Diane Ladd (mother of Laura Dern) and Pennie Lane, the inspiration behind the Cameron Crowe film "Almost Famous," praised Van Sant's body of work.
The audience was then treated to a montage featuring clips from Van Sant's film catalogue, followed by the premiere of a trailer for his upcoming film, "Promised Land" (Matt Damon, Frances McDormand) and a screening of his 1997 drama, "Good Will Hunting."
Actors Robin Williams and Ben Affleck provided videotaped words of praise for Van Sant, and artist Erik Wahl painted the filmmaker's portrait live, on stage.
The SDFF ran Sept. 26-30 with screenings split between La Jolla and The Gaslamp.

Wine racks: Wall Wine Rack, Wrought Iron Wine Racks, Stemware Rack, Countertop Wine Rack
Wine racks come in many different shapes and sizes. What kind of wine rack do you want? Do you want to save space with your wine rack? A wall wine rack might be ideal for space saving wine rack storage and stemware storage. Wine racks come in many different styles. Decorative wine racks, like a countertop wine rack can be stylish as well as functional. For the wine lover, a wine rack is a necessity. However, there is no reason why wine racks cannot be decorative as well. Wall mounted wine racks also can be stylish as well as functional. A wall mounted wine rack can be a modern wine rack. A contemporary wine rack is not the style of wine racks you saw your grandmother use. Home bars & wine racks go hand in hand. Find the perfect wine butler or under cabinet wine rack for your home bar. Don't forget the stemware. Get an under cabinet wine glass rack to go with that corner wine cabinet. Stemware storage is just as important as the wine racks when it comes to preventing chips or breaks. A stainless steel wine rack holds up to a lot of use. Discount wine racks can be durable, but don't let price be the only factor. How easy is it to clean the wine racks you plan on using, wether they are wall mounted wine racks or a countertop wine rack. A decorative wine rack should also be easy to clean. Don't let the decorative elements get in the way of keeping the wine rack clean. A modern wine rack typically has a sleek look. A contemporary wine rack looks great on a home bar countertop. Home bars & wine racks should coordinate with the overall look of the room you are staging as your home bar. Wherever you decide to keep your wine racks, consider how heat and light impact long term wine rack storage. Temperature and darkness are key elements to long term wine rack storage.

How do I ensure my photos stay stunning in print?
Updated: 08/08/2014
Whether you're uploading photos to your SmugMug website so that your mom can see her new grandbaby, or uploading proofs so that your latest bride can choose album photos, we have a few tips to help improve your workflow and get the best possible results.
The right steps depend on your intent for the images: are you archiving family treasures, posting thousands of tournament photos and hoping for quick sales, or posting them into your blog?
We'll walk you through the steps needed for each scenario.
1. Use the Correct File Type For Your Needs
You can upload and display three popular file types to your SmugMug account: PNG, GIF and JPG. What's the diff?
PNG and GIF files are usually used for the design elements on a web site.
PNG files retain transparent backgrounds and are great for banners, watermarks and printmarks.
JPG is the main file type of the web. Our print labs only print from JPG, and digital download files are delivered as JPGs.
2. Color Space: sRGB All the Way!
We highly recommend sRGB for the best web display. So much in fact, that if you upload images in a different color space, we'll convert it automatically for you.
Plus, sRGB is used by all four print labs at SmugMug, so by uploading and viewing your images in the right color space from the start, you know you'll get the best image possible.
We cover color space in more detail here: Why, why, how.
3. All About File Size
All SmugMug accounts give you unlimited photo and video uploads, which means you don't have to pick which photos matter most. We'll keep them safe and sound for you, so you can confidently upload your full-sized JPGs if you wish. We won't alter sRGB JPG files that are within our file size limits.
Important tip: Remember that your upload speed is determined by your internet service provider and the size of file being uploaded. You may not want to upload your full size JPGs so you can upload your photos quickly!
If you are uploading for display only you may wish to resize your photos prior to upload. If web display is your only need then resizing your files to match the largest display size could work for you.
If your images will be printed (by you, your friends and family or your fine art print customers) then you need to be sure to upload enough pixels for a high quality print. We have minimum pixel requirements for each size of print offered through our labs, shown here.
If you are archiving your JPGs then you will want to be sure that you are uploading your full resolution, print quality files (Lightroom 90 or Photoshop quality 10).
BUSINESS and PORTFOLIO: What if you have a thousand photos in your event, but you know your clients will only buy a few prints? Use Proof Delay. This way you can quickly upload lower-resolution files (Lightroom 50 or Photoshop quality 5), then replace only the images that they buy with edited, full-res versions.
Why it works: Your viewers won't really notice a difference between the compressed proof image and an uncompressed version on their monitors. Compression doesn't change the image's pixel dimensions, so your customers can still order the full range of print sizes that you've priced. Plus, your files will upload much, much faster, getting them in front of customers ASAP. You'll only edit files that are actually bought, so you save time. When the order comes in, use your Proof Delay time to make your final edits and replace those images with beautiful, full-res JPGs.
4. Cropping: The Hairy Beast
Cropping is a tricky topic because as artists, the final composition of our photos matters to us! Whether the composition is set in camera, or during post processing, there are some things you should keep in mind for print.
Composition matters. Whether your photos are art prints or family portraits, you'll want to ensure that all of the important elements/subjects of your photo are included in the final printed product. The best way to handle this is by selecting print sizes that match the aspect ratio (shape) of your photo. Ordering prints with the same aspect ratio of your photo will prevent the need to crop your image to print it.
Many dSLR sensors have a 2:3 aspect ratio. Common print sizes that fit this shape are 4x6, 8x12, 10x15, 12x18, 20x30, 24x36.
Most consumer cameras (and some dSLRs) have sensors with 3:4 aspect ratios, and the print sizes that match can be found in the 'other sizes' section of our catalogue.
Canvas caution! Be particularly mindful of your composition when selling (or buying) wrapped canvas prints, as those require lots of additional space around the subject. How to get a canvas-ready image.
For portrait photographers wanting to offer the largest variety of print sizes, our best advice is to compose in camera with lots of space around your subject. If you're starting with an image with a 2:3 aspect ratio, you'll need to leave lots of space around your subject in order to accommodate a 4:5 aspect ratio print: the dreaded 8x10! Alternatively, don't even offer 8x10 products and instead sell just 8x12s. Do this easily with a Portfolio or Business account: Simply add 8x12s into your Pricelist.
5. Lab Color Correction: Perfect for you?
It's important to understand that photos will always look darker in print than on your monitor. Why? Physical prints are lit with reflective light, and your monitor and camera LCDs are lit with transmitted light.
The brightness of the print will be determined by the light you view it in. The way that you see the photo on your monitor will be determined as much by your monitor brightness as it will be by the actual pixel data in the image. The print lab, of course, only has the pixel data from the image to work with!
To fix it: Our labs all offer a color correction service so your photos will print as beautifully as possible, even if you aren't a skilled photo editor. The process used by EZPrints is optimized to adjust photos for brightness and color pop, and adds a bit of sharpening. Bay Photo, White House Custom Color and Loxley Colour use technicians to evaluate brightness, color pop and white balance. The changes made are global changes to the file as opposed to local adjustments.
If you have a personal editing style, make use of special effects such as vignettes, or produce moody fine art prints, then you will want to order some test prints to be sure that your photos print exactly the way you expect.

Biography of Captain Charles Moore
A third generation resident of Long Beach, California, Captain Charles Moore grew up in and on the Pacific Ocean. His father was an industrial chemist and avid sailor who took young Charles and his siblings sailing to remote destinations from Guadalupe Island to Hawaii. Charles attended the University of California at San Diego where he studied chemistry and Spanish.
Oceanographic Research Vessel Alguita and its Captain found their true calling after a 1997 yacht race to Hawaii. On his return voyage, Captain Moore veered from the usual sea route and saw an ocean he had never known. "Every time I came on deck to survey the horizon, I saw a soap bottle, bottle cap or a shard of plastic waste bobbing by. Here I was in the middle of the ocean and there was nowhere I could go to avoid the plastic." Ever since, Captain Moore has dedicated his time and resources to understanding and remediating the ocean's plastic load. Along with collaborators from the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project he developed protocols for monitoring marine and beach micro-plastics which are now used worldwide.
To date, Captain Moore has conducted ocean and coastal sampling for plastic fragments through more than 40,000 miles of the North Pacific Ocean, across 22 degrees of latitude and 70 degrees of longitude. His latest 10,000 mile voyage took him and his crew two-thirds of the way to Japan across the International Dateline. Captain Moore's work has been highlighted in numerous major media outlets, including ABC's Nightline, Good Morning America, National Public Radio, Rolling Stone, and The Wall Street Journal.
In June 2012, Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, Canada, bestowed Captain Moore with a well earned Doctor of Laws Honoris Causa. His work has been published in multiple scientific journals and magazines. His first book, Plastic Ocean, was published in October 2011 and is soon to be published in Japanese and Italian.

St. Maarten: A great local beach! We paid $15 for two chairs and umbrella. Then just walked along the street drinkng dollar beer.
St. Thomas: We took the Champagne Catamaren Cruise to St. Johns. Gorgeous views, lots of fish and turtles, and super strong rum punch on the return sail.
Nassua: Wandered around the town and hit up Senor Frogs.
We loved the Second City, the Blue Man Group and Legends. The Casino was mammoth and I lost some money at the Blackjack table. We went through the shops everyday and walked away with some great Epic stuff.
Alex, our room steward, was great and made us 5 towel animals. Wilson, at Spice H20, was our favorite bar waiter.
It was a great trip and a terrific ship!

Another IRS Hearing Leaves Questions Unanswered
In another House Oversight Committee hearing today, Deputy Attorney General James M. Cole was subpoenaed to testify. Cole was specifically asked to answer questions about the investigation of the IRS by the Department of Justice.
Congressman Jim Jordan, who was chairing the hearing, opened with a strong statement condemning the DOJ's lack of response to the allegations against the IRS:
Four days after the IRS leaked they were targeting conservatives, the DOJ under Holder said they were outraged and were going to investigate. That was last May and we have heard nothing more. How much more will it take for the administration to appoint a special prosecutor?
The ranking member, Elijah Cummings, said Republicans were only being zealous because they were looking for an opportunity to attack the administration and find a conspiracy theory:

PoA in EW-Year End IssueMedia
December 27, 2004, 06:03 PM
PoA crops up in a few places in the Entertainment Weekly Year End issue:
The article on sequels note that the "third time's the charm Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban" landed a broom's sweep shy of the previous films, but it was still enough to land it as the No. 32 all time blockbuster.
PoA pulled a B+ rating when they averaged a range of critical reviews of films - only one movie merited an A, and a few tied for A- and B+, so PoA is in good company. The cover from June is shown with all the other covers of the year on the last page.
