3.8/5 rDev -2.3%
Served on tap in a pint glass
Appearance –Served a hazy golden yellow colored brew with a one finger white head. The head had a pretty good retention and eventually faded to leave some nice lacing on the sides of the glass.
Smell - The aroma was biggest of a biscuit and yeasty smell. Mixed with these aromas were some lighter notes of pepper, citrus, and some herbal hops. Rather standard in many respects for a weiss.
Taste – The taste begins with a biscuit and sweeter citrus fruit flavor. A yeast cake flavor
quickly comes to the tongue. Soon after a banana and pepper flavor follow the yeast, bringing a more classic Weiss flavor to the brew. More toward the end of the taste a lemon citrus surges a bit and when combined with some flavors of a light grapefruit hop bring a yeasty, biscuity citrus flavor to the tongue.
Mouthfeel –The body of the beer was on the slightly thicker side for a weiss with a carbonation level that was very average.
Overall – Not bad. A pretty nice weiss with a bit more flavor and a better feel then most.

Weizen beers are not a style I go to very often but on hot days here in NC I do from time to time.Pours into a weizen glass a pale yellow color with not much haze,a thinner (for the style) white head atop,doesn't really have the look of a Bavarian wheat beer wich in Victory's defense it sorta isn't.Aromas of yeasty phenols and toasted cereal grain,there is some serious clove going on here.The flavors are dominated by the toasted grain with the phenols giving off some spice with hint of smoke,the feel is light and almost flat feeling wich doesn't fit the style.Kinda let down here I bought this thinking this was gonna be a hefe weizen with a bit of a punch but honestly.... not really.

Served on tap at the Victory Brewery.
Light yellow, not really pale, but rather a golden color with a fair colored haze. The head was very creamy and thick at a solid two fingers with great retention. The foam left heavy trails down the sides, not really dainty enough to be called lacing. This look really good!
The aromas brought me back to center with the typical light fruity banana smells and a hint of spicy clove. You can pick up some of the wheat malt and just a bit of citrus on the nose.
Interesting, this is. It has a light, delicate sense to it but at the same time has a very complicated set of flavors that come through. The wheat malt is noticeable, along with banana, clove, & yeast that typically goes along with it, but there was something on the order of cinnamon or nutmeg that was faint but seemed to bring everything together. Toward the end came some light bitterness, presumably from hops, that seemed to hit just before the finish and then everything ended with a relatively clean finish. Carbonation was fine and abundant and lent itself well to a slightly creamy texture. This was a beauty!
I don't know that I am doing this brew justice with my review. It's not your average hefeweizen and you really just need to experience it to get that wonderful complexity. Very drinkable, very smooth, and very recommended!

On-tap at Capital Ale House.
Hazy bright golden-yellow in color with an active, fizzy white head that is killed off by the slice of lemon wedge on the glass. LOTS of fruity esters in the nose, bannanas mostly. Clove and some citrus fruits in the background, along with a bit of bread dough. Flavor is crisp and fruity up front, with a yeasty aftertaste. Bannanas in the flavor, along with some peppery spice, coriander, maybe some orange peel? Very clean finish, with a good mouthfeel. Very drinkable and well-done.

First of all, if you ever have a chance to go to a Victory tasting GO! It was a great time, a sales rep. put it on at the Pittsburgh Deli in Shadyside. Appearance: Cloudy golden unfiltered wheat beer, leaves behind intricate fine lacing as the frothy white head disipates. Aroma: Touch of banana sharp sweetness from the malted wheat clove and vanilla swirls around in this concoctiobn, underneath all of the phenols and fruit comes a nice alcohol kick. Hefe at 6.2 abv maybe a little out of style guidelines but it's okay this one's Mad. Taste: Amazing alcohol infused you can feel it in the back of the throat, but the banana and clove with a kiss of vanilla do this beer right, wow what a nice beer. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied slightly sticky higher carbonation excellent wheat beer. Drinkability: Only complaint is that it's not bottled, in house at Victory only what a damn shame. I throughly enjoyed this beer our table finished a couple pitchers of it.

On tap at the Victory brewpub. This beer poured a cloudy yellowish body with a thick foamy white head and respectable lacing on the glass. The nose was dominated by some quality spice tones and banana notes as well. The taste also had some good spice notes, cloves, as well as touches of banana and vanilla. Very well put together beer and easy to drink.

DATE REVIEWED: July 27, 2014... GLASSWARE: Weihenstephan weizen ... OCCASION: another chain saw and tractor day in the yard--but a sweet reward...APPEARANCE: handsome three-finger snow-white head that stays thick and creamy for a duration; appropriate, unfiltered hazy golden yellow body with steady effervescence; lacing is inconsistent but observable ... AROMA: alluring yeast of banana and fragrant candy; malts are understated but provide a doughy hint with some licorice to boot--a bit more complex than the ordinary hefe... PALATE: active, impactful and reasonably bodied--more weight than a weizen--with a heavier aftertaste as well; an astringent, creamy combination that makes this thirst-quenching but substantial... TASTE: banana and pepper, with some sweet malts mixed in; some warmth too... OVERALL: worth a bomber's price, this beer is a bigger, somewhat bolder take on a refreshing style--like the Whirlwind with a little V Lager mixed with some nondescript spices that engages with strength...

Growler filled @ Whole Foods Plymouth Meeting
Initial pour into a Weizen glass yields a fairly clear, golden Hefe with a finger of quickly fading head leaving little lacing. A nice spiciness to the nose, along with yeast and some citrus. Taste is in line with the nose, adding in the typical banana / clove / bubblegum flavors the style is known for. Light carbonation and medium bodied, refreshing!
Never even heard of this until I saw it pop up on the growler station - seems it was bottled at one time but is strictly draught these days. A nice Hefe, nothing mind blowing or out of place.

The Mad King offers the typical hefe-weizen appearance with the exception that its head is a bit limited (which may be due in part to its alcohol content, but is almost certainly due to it's slightly lower carbonation level). The nose offers some restrained phenolics with a delicate touch of banana/clove and some light spice. The body is medium and it's quite smooth across the palate. It's carbonation level is lower than many German hefeweizens where the CO2 levels seem to average about 3.6 volumes (although they can range from 2.8 up to 5.1 volumes). Higher levels can be too gassy and filling; and even those in the average range with prickle the tongue and give a huge head that makes the pour take a bit longer. The Mad King is in the lower range at around 2.8 volumes and is much smoother across the palate, allowing you to experence more of the beer in your mouth with less "airy" foam from released CO2. The flavor is lightly sweet (not as sweet as a standard weizen), a bit tangy, and exceptionally well-balanced by a bitterness that lies just beneath the surface. It finishes dry with some mild apple-ish fruitiness, a touch of light wheaty malt, a sprinkling of alcohol, and some very delicate spiciness. Quite impressive! Although it seems pretty straightforward at the start, it actually reveals a bit of complexity by the finish. It's reduced sweetness and carbonation level add to its drinkability, although its slightly elevated alcohol does come into play after a few. For fans of the hefeweizen style, this takes it one step further.

This beer seems a little off to me. It's too big and sweet for it's own good. The yeast has come through some spice and banana, but the overall flavor is muddled up by the sweetness, ruining the complexity for me. Maybe it's there and I just can't get it.

Took a trip up to RSPB Sandy this morning with a friend- along with the new Canon 100-400mm lens I've got on hire. As we were enjoying the standard showing of tits, finches and the odd woodpecker, all of a sudden they all started shrieking and promptly scarpered.
Then this impressive Sparrowhawk swooped in and sat on the branch briefly, to our amazement. Stunning.

Withybush Special Care Baby Unit will close, health minister confirms
Updated 4:10pm Tuesday 21st January 2014 in News
The Welsh Health Minister Mark Drakeford has today (Tuesday) confirmed that a level 2 neonatal unit will be created at Glangwili Hospital, Carmarthen - paving the way for the closure of the Special Care Baby Unit at Withybush Hospital.
Obstetric and maternity services at Bronglais and Withybush hospitals will become midwifery-led.
Preseli Pembrokeshire Assembly Member Paul Davies described the move as "dangerous and unsafe for the people of Pembrokeshire and will put lives at risk."
Mr Drakeford's full statement:
"I am now in a position to make my determination in respect of the proposed Level 2 Neonatal Unit at West Wales General Hospital, Glangwili, Carmarthen. Welsh Ministers have been asked to make a determination on objections raised by the local Community Health Council to proposals for this Unit contained in the Hywel Dda Health Board's service change plan - 'Your Health – Your Future'.
In my statement to this Chamber on 24 September I explained that the Expert Panel set up to advise me had asked for a further piece of work from the Health Board on its plans for local obstetric and midwifery services before it could provide final advice on Neonatal services for the Hywel Dda area. That additional work was submitted just before Christmas and shared with the local Community Health Council.
On the 18th of December I wrote to the chair of the Health and Social Care Committee setting out my intention to reconvene the expert Scrutiny Panel to consider these plans. Mr Simon Emery, Consultant Obstetrician, and Wales representative of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists joined the Panel to assist them with this task.
Following a further series of meeting in the Hywel Dda area, the Scrutiny Panel has now provided me with its final, subsidiary report and recommendations. The Panel is clear that this subsidiary report should be read in the context of their original detailed report, and not as a separate entity.
Llywydd, let me therefore begin by reminding Members of some key conclusions from the Expert Panel's Report of September 2013:
"the provision of neonatal special care facilities across all health boards hospitals is neither safe nor sustainable. Even if funds were available to establish teams of specialists at every site where babies are born it is unlikely that there would be sufficient numbers of skilled, trained staff available to recruit, and even if recruitment were possible, their skills will be inevitably, rapidly compromised through lack of sufficient patient throughput."
The Panel was clear that the needs of pregnant women and their babies could be safely accommodated, without a neonatal unit presence, provided that this was accompanied by emergency cover, staff trained in new born resuscitation and stabilisation and clearly defined pathways for in utero and post natal transfers are in place.
Presiding Officer, the Scrutiny Panel, following its further work, has concluded that it has not been presented with any additional evidence that leads them to question their original support for the Health Board's proposals to develop a Level 2 Neonatal Unit at Glangwili.
Indeed, the Panel expressly endorses the Health Board's intention to move to midwife led units across the Hywel Dda region. This they see as vital to the way Hywel Dda neonatal services should develop and improve in the future.
However, there are a number of important provisos to the way ahead which the panel has set out.
Firstly, mindful of the issues raised by local communities and the strength of feeling when changes are made to obstetric, midwifery and neonatal services, the panel feels it essential that until the midwife led units are fully established the Health Board should put in place a robust 'safety net' arrangement to provide midwives with skilled assistance in the event of an unexpected emergency.
Until the new service model is fully in place, therefore, a suitable level of consultant obstetric support will remain in place in Withybush. It is the LHBs intention that during this period, a stratified service supported by an obstetric rota will also continue at Bronglais with high risk mothers, as now, being transferred to Glangwili hospital to deliver their babies.
Secondly, to help mitigate local public anxiety over additional travelling times and for efficient transfer arrangements, the supplementary report recommends that robust emergency transfer arrangements should be put in place by the Health Board until its new Emergency Medical Retrieval Service and improved Cymru Inter Hospital Neonatal Transfer Service (CHANTS) service become fully operation.
I can tell the chamber this afternoon that detailed work will now go on involving my officials, and Local Health Boards, to accelerate the introduction of a new round the clock Emergency Retrieval Service for Wales, deploying specialised medical staff. The planning for that service will include the capacity to transfer sick babies and mothers in labour.
Thirdly, the panel is clear that the Midwife-led units must be developed in strict accordance with the guidance provided by "Neonatal Support for Stand Alone Midwife Led Units; a Framework for practice".
The combined effect of these provisos leads the panel to recommend a phased introduction of the new service model. . I expect the Community Health Council to assist the Health Board with the preparatory work to develop pathways and clinical protocols. The Panel recommends this work should start without delay.
An essential factor in any maternity model of care, is that the mother should be able to make a clinically informed decision on the place of birth. That is what the Panel's recommendations produce.
For the mothers in Hywel Dda these changes will mean that the majority of maternity services – that is pregnancy day assessment, pre and post natal care will continue to be provided locally by their GP and hospital as they are now – and that the majority of women if they choose to do so can safely have their deliveries at their local Mid Wife Led Unit.
These are important changes for the people of Hywel Dda. In a further assurance measure I will commission through the Health Board an independent evaluation of the impact of the revised neonatal services on newborn outcomes and patient experiences in 12 months time.
Presiding Officer, I have provided a summary of the expert Panel's advice and recommendations to me in this matter. I am immensely grateful to them each individually - Dr David Salter, Professor Neena Modi, Mr Jim Wardrope, and Mr Simon Emery for working tirelessly on this over the holiday period and for undertaking a challenging itinerary of visits in the Hywel Dda area. I am satisfied that the Scrutiny Panel has conducted a comprehensive examination of the proposals, has reviewed all relevant information and has supplemented that information with meetings with the CHC, the LHB and the local clinicians.
I have very carefully considered the expert clinical advice they have provided, as set out in both their original and subsidiary reports, and so determine this matter on behalf of Welsh Ministers.
I endorse the new service model as set out in the Panel's report. I also make it a requirement that implementation of that model is predicated on meeting the provisos identified by the Panel and set out in this statement.
Llywydd, all change in health services is challenging and gives rise to very strong feelings. The Panel's recommendations are expressly based on "providing the best outcomes and experience for mother and baby" and the conclusion that the new service model will "provide an improved service for Hywel Dda mothers and babies". That is the basis on which it has secured my endorsement."

MADISON (WKOW) -- A 38-year-old Madison man, driving around downtown early Sunday morning noticed vehicle looking very similar to the one he owns, even the same tree-style air freshener hanging from the rearview mirror.
The man pulled up next to the BMW X5 and saw two men in the front seat and two women in the back. He said the music was so loud, he could feel the thumping of the base.
That's when he noticed the license plate. He was looking at his car, which was supposed to be in the shop.
He says he dropped his car off at an auto shop on Stoughton Road the previous Monday, and when he drove to the location, his car was gone. Staff told police the vehicle was there at the close of business Saturday and must have been stolen hours before the owner spotted it.

The recent PLASA show in London saw the proliferation of new EtherSound-enabled products launched by EtherSound licensees Allen & Heath, AuviTran, Digigram, InnovaSON, Pinanson, and Stardraw.com.
"The EtherSound audio networking standard was without a doubt one of the hottest topics at the show," says EtherSound business development manager Jimmy Kawalek. "The massive launch of new products and the impressive number of Licensees displaying the EtherSound logo at their booth, demonstrated very clearly the momentum EtherSound has gained in 2005. While new Licensees are always seen as a positive endorsement–and EtherSound has more than doubled the number of licensees since the beginning of the year–seeing new and varying products brought to market in a very timely manner is what makes the technology real."
Current EtherSound licensees include Allen & Heath, Archean Technologies, Audio Performance, AuviTran, Bittner Audio, Bouyer, CAMCO, DiGiCo, Digigram, InnovaSON, Lab X Technologies, Martin Audio, Mediachip, NetCIRA by Fostex, Nexo, Pinanson, Stardraw.com, VTG Audio, and Whirlwind.
New Products Seen at PLASA
Allen & Heath launched iLive, a new live sound digital mixing console. The heart of the system is the iDR-64, a stand-alone 19" rack-mounting modular mix engine providing 64 channels into 32 mixes. The unit is controlled via an Ethernet network, as distinct from the EtherSound network, and can be connected to a variety of controllers, including the new range of iLive control surfaces, Allen & Heath's PL range of remote units, third-party devices, or a laptop/PC. Two EtherSound ports are provided for connection of an additional unit to expand the system to 128 channels, FOH/monitor signal splitting, and the connection of multi-tracks and other EtherSound-equipped devices. All channels and mix masters have EQ, dynamics and delay processing, with on-board FX, and an option for a built-in 32-channel speaker processor.
AuviTran launched AVB32-ES, an EtherSound to AES/EBU interface in a 19" 1U rack box. AVB32ES is available in three formats: 32 in, or 16 in/16out, or 32 out. The AES/EBU inputs and outputs are split onto four DB25 connectors for size and cabling optimization. A Word Clock "in" on a BNC connector is available for external synchronization and four individual BNC "out" connectors enable the direct Word Clock synchronization of four external devices.
Digigram introduced a number of new EtherSound enabled offerings: ES881, ES1241 and ES16161 form a range of rack-mount AES/EBU to EtherSound interfaces in a variety of I/O configurations that will connect any digital product to an EtherSound network. ES881 offers four stereo AES/EBU I/Os while ES1241 and ES16161 provide two stereo AES/EBU inputs and six stereo AES/EBU outputs, and eight stereo AES/EBU inputs and eight stereo AES/EBU outputs respectively. ES881 and ES1241 come with XLRs on the digital audio inputs and outputs while ES16161 features Sub-D connectors. All devices offer sample rate converters on each input, as well as Word Clock input and output. Continuing the EtherSound product roll-out, LX6464ES, with up to 64/64 EtherSound I/Os, is a linear PCI sound card that connects an EtherSound network directly to computer based audio applications using standard DirectSound, Wave, or ASIO drivers.
DioCore from InnovaSON is the first modular digital stagebox to offer audio transmission via EtherSound. The unit offers up to 64 ES I/Os controllable by any EtherSound management software such as ESControl or ESMonitor (available at no cost from Digigram and AuviTran). DioCore may be used with both InnovaSON Sy80 and Sy48 digital live mixing consoles and/or as a remote I/O box for other EtherSound enabled devices wishing to take advantage of InnovaSON's legendary sound quality.
Pinanson, a specialist in audio and video connectivity, launched its first digital product, an EtherSound stagebox with 48 mike/line inputs and 16 outputs all on XLR connectors. The microphone preamplifiers and the signal routing can be controlled locally on the device.

Hello there, this is Marie from Dr Alice Gorman's Directed Study in Cultural Heritage Management class. I wanted to pass on some information about the South Australian Museum storage facility located at Netly. This warehouse is absolutely a goldmine for anyone interested in Australian Indigenous Culture, as it is full of artefacts from all over Australia, including Bathurst and Melville Islands. Artefacts include bark paintings, ornaments, Indigenous medicines, boomerangs, spears, stone tools, baskets and shields, to name but a few. Volunteers help keep the database up to date and everything tidy. Dr Keryn Walshe is full of enthusiasm for those wishing to access this facility to further their studies.
I have spent some time at the Netly storage facility looking into spear throwers, comparing those classed as children's to those defined as adults. Is it child's play or are they miniature? Comparisons will be made between the two groups in order to answer this question, utilising the Museum's current database, recording measurements and general observations. The process has been quite rewarding and I look forward to updating you at a later date as to what I have discovered.

Danny Sheaffer, a veteran minor league manager and also a player on both
the minor and major league levels, was announced on January 24 as the
new manager of the 2013 Princeton Rays. The balance of the P-Rays 2013
coaching staff will feature returnees from 2012: pitching coach Darwin
Peguero, hitting coach Reinaldo Ruiz, athletic trainer Nick Flynn, and
clubhouse manager Anthony Dunagan.
This upcoming season will mark the first year in the Rays organization
for the 51-year old Sheaffer and his 33rd season in professional
baseball. He has spent the last six seasons in various positions with
the Houston Astros organization, primarily as their minor league roving
catching coordinator. Sheaffer is a resident of nearby Mount Airy, NC.
He is an alumnus of Clemson University and was the first round draft
pick (20th overall) of the Boston Red Sox in the 1981 Major League
Baseball Amateur Draft. He made his major league debut on April 9, 1987
with the Red Sox and was a .232 career hitter in 389 career major
league games over a ten-year period from 1987-1997 (playing in seven
different MLB seasons) as a catcher and infielder for the Boston Red
Sox, Cleveland Indians, Colorado Rockies, and St. Louis Cardinals. He
was a member of the inaugural 1993 Colorado Rockies team and saw his
only postseason action as a player with the 1996 St. Louis Cardinals.
His previous managerial experience has all been at the AAA level,
2003-2006 with the Memphis Redbirds and 2007 with the Round Rock
"We are excited to have Danny join us and he brings a lot of knowledge
that we know will translate into him launching the careers of a lot of
future Tampa Bay Rays while he is in Princeton," commented P-Rays
General Manager Jim Holland in making the announcement. He also said it
is an added bonus that Sheaffer likes this area of the country based on
where he lives.
Peguero will return to Princeton for a second consecutive season in 2013
in the role of pitching coach after spending the previous three seasons
as the pitching coach for Tampa Bay's entry in the Gulf Coast League.
The three seasons prior to that (2006-2008), he served in the same
capacity for the Rays Dominican Summer League team. As a professional
player, he pitched seven years (1996-2002) in the Astros organization,
reaching the AA level in his final season. He followed that with three
years pitching in independent league baseball.
"Peggy did a great job with our pitchers last year and had the
responsibility of mentoring a top prospect like Blake Snell among
others." said Holland.
Ruiz will also return to Princeton for a second consecutive season in
2013 as hitting coach after spending the prior two seasons in the same
capacity for the Hudson Valley Renegades of the New York-Penn League.
Prior to that, the current Punto Vijo, VZ resident was a coach in 2009
with Tampa Bay's Gulf Coast League team and as a catching instructor for
the Rays' Venezuelan Summer League team in 2007-2008. His eight-year
professional playing career was all in the Astros organization with his
peak seasons (2003-2005) occurring in nearby Salem, VA.
"Ray is a tireless worker. We never saw a lot of him as he always was teaching in our indoor hitting facility," said Holland.
Back in Princeton as athletic trainer in 2013 for a second consecutive
summer will be the 24-year old Flynn, a Canadian native and current
resident of Port Richey, FL. He received his B.S. degree in Athletic
Training from the University of South Florida, where he worked on the
Bulls training staffs for both football and baseball.
"Nick was a great asset to our staff last year and we are glad to have
him back. He is knowledgeable and keeps our guys up and going," Holland
The summer of 2013 will be the third straight season as clubhouse
manager in Princeton for Dunagan following four consecutive seasons in
the same capacity for Tampa Bay's New York-Penn League team, the Hudson
Valley (NY) Renegades. In addition to his duties in Princeton, the
Poughkeepsie, NY resident annually also works on the Tampa Bay Rays
minor league clubhouse staffs in Port Charlotte, FL for spring training,
extended spring training, and fall instructional league.
"Anthony likes Princeton and I know he is excited to get back here again
this summer. A clubhouse manager has a very tough job and he does it
very well," commented Holland.

Videography > PAL System (International) > Memory Card Camcorder (PAL) > Panasonic Memory Card Camcorders (PAL)
Announced at the 2011 Consumer Electronic's Show, the HDC-HS900E High Definition PAL Camcorder is a high-end HD offering from Panasonic. Right off the bat a few of the camera's most desirable features include: 1920 x 1080/50p recording, a 220GB hard disk drive, an SD memory card slot, the option to record in 3D, and a quality image sensor system. These features give you detailed, beautiful images, a plethora of recording space, and the ability to shoot fun and unique movies in 3D with an optional lens.
Let's take a closer look at the 3MOS system and 1080/50p recording. Panasonic's proprietary '3MOS' is 3 CMOS sensors that add up to 9.15MP (3 x 3.05MP). These sensors work together with another Panasonic technology, Crystal Engine PRO. This engine is a fast processor which writes those gigantic HD files to the HDD or SD card quickly and efficiently. It also allows for high-res zooming when exceeding the optical range. In addition, the engine works to reduce image noise, rendering beautiful, life-like images. These two work together to produce 1080/50p footage. The "p" means progressive: when recording in a progressive frame rate, the footage captured is more vibrant and detailed than "i" (interlaced) HD recording. In the world of consumer camcorders, 1080p is the gold standard.
Of course the sensor and engine wouldn't be able to do their job without a high-quality lens. The HS900E comes with a 35mm Leica Dicomar lens that sports a 3.45-41.4mm focal length, 12x optical zoom range, 46mm filter diameter, and a 1.5-2.8 f/stop. The lens can zoom up to 20x using the Intelligent Zoom, and it features a manual ring for more control and creativity with your shooting. Another way the camera creates clean video is with HYBRID O.I.S. (optical image stabilization). This keeps your shots steady when hand-holding the camera. It reduces the effects of hand-shake for an easy-to-view, clean image.
Another useful tool includes the generous 3.5" touchscreen LCD, which provides you with options such as "Touch Zoom" and "Touch Shutter." The zoom function allows you to zoom in by dragging your finger across the LCD. The shutter function enables instant touch focus on a particular subject in the frame, and the option to switch to still-image shooting. The camera also features 5.1-channel Dolby Surround Sound recording, and 5 built-in electret condenser microphones. You can capture true Surround Sound that targets your subject, while minimizing wind and extraneous sounds.
In addition to these useful features, the HS900E also gives you the option of recording in 3D, using the optional VW-CLT1 conversion lens. Your 3D videos can then be played back on any 3D TV that's compatible with the side-by-side method. Giving the camera a third identity would be its ability to capture up to 14.2MP still images. A dedicated iA mode will automatically switch to 1 of 5 scene modes for optimized capture.
The HS900E also features numerous shooting controls, such as face detection and Intelligent Auto, which help take the guesswork out of video recording. These controls allow you to make recording simple, so you can focus on the moment without fumbling for the correct settings. Other notable features include microphone and headphone connections, an extendable electronic viewfinder, and a cold shoe for mounting optional accessories. When it comes time to share what you've shot, the HS900E provides you with various options as well, from editing software that lets you upload to the Web to a fun in-camera playback feature.
The Intelligent Resolution Technology incorporated in the new Crystal Engine PRO uses edge detection technology to confirm the edges of objects within the image, then emphasizes the edges for optimal clarity. For example, it brings crisp definition to patterns and the outlines of objects like flowers. Conversely, it reduces noise and enhances the natural smoothness of parts without edges, like the sky. The increased sharpness is especially effective for images with delicate details. This highly advanced technology maximizes the beauty of Full-HD images.
Selecting the Digital Cinema Color mode makes it possible to shoot film-like images that are ideally suited to the Digital Cinema Color of VIERA plasma TVs. Colors recorded in this mode look richer than those recorded using the conventional Panasonic standard. For example, the subtle shades of red and gold in flowers, and the greens of leafy trees are remarkably true to life
Active mode comes in handy when shooting while walking or playing with your children. The wide correction area corrects even relatively large hand-shake motion. It's especially good for active video shooting.
This mode captures faces beautifully. With Soft Skin mode, complexions are automatically enhanced to make faces attractive.
This mode is ideal for shooting wide landscapes and sweeping vistas, such as at the ocean or in the mountains. It balances the exposure over the entire frame to prevent brighter parts of the image, such as the sky, from being washed out or having blown highlights.
The camcorder automatically uses this mode for scenes with particularly strong contrast, such as when you're shooting a spot lit area on a darkened stage. It captures the well-lit subject perfectly and prevents washed-out areas.
In dim lighting, the camcorder automatically switches to a slower shutter speed so that images across the entire frame are bright and easy to see.
Sports, Portrait, Spot Light, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Fireworks, Scenery, Night Scenery, Night Portrait, Macro.
There is a mic input terminal on the side of the camcorder. Plug in an external mic (optional) if desired.
Optional accessories can be attached here to increase shooting versatility.
Just rotate the ring to zoom in and out. You have full control of the zooming speed and can zoom in or out to the precise degree you want.
Just rotate the ring to focus. You can focus on the exact point you want, even if it's not in the center of the frame. You can also change the focus as you shoot, to get the kind of creative shots you sometimes see in movies.
Select from Auto, Indoor, Outdoor and White Set according to the location, weather or type of lighting. You'll always get the best possible coloring even if the light source changes.
The shutter speed can be adjusted from 1/24 to 1/8,000 of a second. Use a high shutter speed when shooting sports events or fast-moving subjects, and you can get clear, sharp, incredible action shots.
Use the ring to adjust the aperture to regulate the amount of light let in. You can also use this setting to attain a shallow depth of field, blur the background, or create frames that emphasize the foreground, for creating movie-like expressions.
A "zebra pattern" is displayed in areas of the frame where the lighting is excessive and the image is over-exposed.
The light level is metered at the center of the frame and displayed as a percentage (%). This serves as a guide when you're shooting a subject that's backlit, or when you want to keep the light level the same even though the lighting conditions change.
The histogram displays in graph form the exposure and contrast conditions over the entire frame. This lets you determine fine gradation details that are difficult to tell by just looking at the screen.
Connect your HD camcorder to a VIERA or compatible Blu-ray Disc Player via an HDMI mini cable, and you can control both units in synchronized operation with a single remote control. This kind of simple, easy operation makes it enjoyable to view your recordings.
Just slip the SD card from your camcorder into the VIERA Image Viewer card slot on your VIERA TV, and you're ready to view full-HD moving images recorded.
You can make a copy either in the original high-definition AVCHD format, or in the standard-definition DVD-Video (MPEG-2) format. Choose the one that matches your playback equipment.
Use the included HD Writer AE 3.0 software to save Full-HD 1080/50p data onto a PC or an SD card.
To view the disc you just burned, simply connect the HD camcorder to an HDTV via an HDMI mini cable.
When the camcorder is connected to a PC, the software automatically starts up. Importing data takes only a few clicks of the mouse.
The videos you've recorded are easily uploaded to YouTube or Facebook in their original high quality. HD Writer AE 3.0 lets you share your videos worldwide.
It's easy to add titles, rearrange scenes, provide transition effects, and edit images in single frame units.
Make a copy either in the original high-definition AVCHD format, or in the standard-definition DVD-Video (MPEG-2) format.

CROWN POINT — A Ticonderoga teen was injured in a one-car accident Aug. 13 after her car left the road while she was texting, police said.
Shortly before 6:49 p.m., Mckenna Kelly, 17, was traveling south on White Church Road in the Town of Crown Point at an unsafe speed while text messaging when she lost control of the vehicle, Lewis-based State Police said.
The car Kelly was driving exited the roadway via the east shoulder and continued onto an earth embankment before striking a tree, police said.
Kelly was unconscious when troopers arrived at the accident site and she was taken to Inter-Lake Health in Ticonderoga, police said.
Inter-Lakes Health declined to say whether Kelly had been released from the hospital.

The Boston Bruins are through to the second round of the NHL's Stanley Cup Playoffs after defeating the Montreal Canadiens in overtime, thanks to a great goal by Nathan Horton. With just over six minutes gone in the first overtime, Horton got the puck uncovered just inside of the blue line and ripped a shot, beating Carey Price glove side and bulging the back of the net, giving Boston a win by the final score of 4-3, taking the series by four games to three.
it looked as if there might have been a deflection that allowed the Bruins to score, but in any event, it was a great shot by Horton to give his team the victory. Boston will now be facing the Philadelphia Flyers in the second round, as whoever advances from the Pittsburgh Penguins-Tampa Bay Lightning game will be the lowest seed remaining in the playoffs, and as a result, will face the Washington Capitals.
For more on this game, Habs fans should check out Habs Eyes On The Prize while Bruins fans should head over to Stanley Cup Of Chowder and SB Nation Boston.

Mike Christensen (right) accidentally forgot a bank bag containing $9,500 inside of a grocery cart after a night of shopping. He was using the money for a charity project. The bank bag was found by store employee Kyle Gonzalez (left). "[I thought] obviously, somebody needs this and I'm going to turn it in," Gonzalez said. He was rounding up carts and saw it in the seat, and decided to give it to his boss, who managed to track Christensen down with the news.
"It makes your heart stop a minute," he said.

The New Orleans Hornets are considering UNC center Tyler Zeller with the No. 10 pick of the 2012 NBA Draft, sources tell the New Orleans Times-Picayune. The Hornets are in need of a big man after trading Emeka Okafor to the Washington Wizards last week.
Coupled with the expected selection of Kentucky power forward Anthony Davis with the first overall pick, New Orleans would be giving its frontcourt a major (and much-needed) infusion of talent. Zeller was the 2012 ACC Player of the Year and a second team All-American after averaging 16.3 points and 9.6 rebounds per game for the Tar Heels last season.
With Okafor gone and Chris Kaman not expected to re-sign, Zeller could potentially see a lot of minutes in New Orleans if selected. Jason Smith and Gustavo Ayon are the only other players on the roster who spent any significant time at center.
Zeller worked out for the Hornets on June 4, along with Illinois' Meyers Leonard, Mississippi State's Arnett Moultrie and Kentucky's Terrence Jones.
For more on the Hornets, head over to At The Hive. Stay tuned to SB Nation's NBA hub for more news surrounding the 2012 NBA Draft.

The following quotes are from NFL scouts, coaches and front-office personnel, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
• "I don't understand what the Redskins are doing at quarterback. Rex Grossman plays like he has bipolar disorder. He's great one play, awful the next. Go back and study him throughout his NFL career. He has always been that way. If Mike Shanahan can extract some consistency from him, I will eat my words. But I've never seen a quarterback who is more of a 50-50 player. He's short, slow and has not been able to escape the pocket since he hurt his knee. Whether he even can be on the field every week is a hit-or-miss proposition. What do you want to bet he will not be the Redskins' starting quarterback at midseason?"
• "(Chiefs head coach) Todd Haley is a rah-rah guy. He runs the locker room screaming and yelling. He's Bill Parcells Jr. At some point, you better have substance behind all the music or the players will tune you out. Right now, after the way he responded to (John) Harbaugh in the preseason (for scoring late in the game), he just looks like a ticking time bomb. Perception and reality are often two different things. You would never believe some of the stuff that goes on behind the scenes."
• "It's become crystal clear to me — the teams that know how to draft are the teams that are in contention for the Super Bowl. The Green Bay Packers know how to draft. San Diego and Pittsburgh know how to draft. New England understands the draft. The teams that are consistently good at what they do are those that come away from the draft with talent."
• "(Ravens rookie WR Torrey) Smith cannot catch a cold. (Trading for) Lee Evans was a great pickup by them. If they did not make that move, I don't know who Joe Flacco is throwing to downfield. Teams could have stacked the box. Now defenses are going to have to stay honest and won't be able to jam Ray Rice as easily."
• "(Pittsburgh GM Kevin) Colbert understands the formula. He has done a great job finding players that fit the Steelers. They lock and reload every year."
• "It was curious to see Marvin Lewis trading for Taylor Mays and Kelly Jennings. It tells you what Cincinnati felt about its secondary."
• "(Rams head coach) Steve Spagnuolo has stepped on a lot of toes in St. Louis, but those are the types of decisions you have to make sometimes when you are trying to overhaul the culture of a building. It's not easy running off people who have been there forever. The public does not always know what's happening behind the scenes. Spags is making hard decisions, and I think the Rams are better for it."
• "How did (Dolphins GM) Jeff Ireland not trade for Kyle Orton? How do you hesitate when someone is going to give you a quarterback that can save your franchise and career, and you don't do it? He who hesitates loses. When you cannot pull the trigger, you lose. Denver dangled Orton in the preseason, but Ireland could not pull the trigger. I do not understand it. He is a creation of Bill Parcells."
• "The Eagles' offensive line has an entirely different look this year. Every time I turn around, it seems they are running someone different onto the field. Signing (Kyle DeVan) a week before the season looked like a panic move to me. Maybe there's a reason they wanted to give Michael Vick his deal now, before he realizes he does not have any protection and wants to get the (heck) out. … With the kind of money they spent this year, I can tell you — they are expecting to win the Super Bowl. To get anywhere, you better know your strengths and weaknesses, and there is a lot they are going to have to cover up on that offensive line."

As subject says : E72's battery-cover is the worst technical design ever. It is loose on all corners .. and can be moved left, right. up and down. Very .. but VERY annoying.
And i don't even mention the fact that the build quality of the whole phone itself is inferior compared to previous products (E71 etc). And let's be honest : it's the hardware quality that should be Nokia's strongest point of sale at this moment ... it's obvious software isn't (anymore).

"Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions, where you can share advice and tips with thousands of other Nokia users. These boards are primarily for user-to-user interaction. If you want to contact Nokia directly, please visit the "Contact Us"-section of this website."
Questions aren't compulsory in every post; you seemed to allude to that point.
p.s. I enjoyed the ridiculing of that font fool

Well .. maybe my 'tone' was too 'hard'.
But, I am so dissapointed .. Nokia is a great 'brand' .. but their decisions make me question if it wouldn't be better to fire some people or remove some CEO's.
E71 was one of Nokia's best phones ever. I didn't care at all that Symbian feeled 'old' and 'legacy'. I just felt 'at home' in those menu's etc. and hardware-wise it was superior.
But E72 is in every aspect a step backwards .. it's software isn't finished yet (lot's of bugs .. and could be much quicker with this CPU) .. and that's unforgivable (after all those years that they could work on it), it is not 'one system' .. but a mashup of different pieces of code .. without one uniform GUI that respects theme settings system-wide (check Gallery, E-mail app and browser shortcut-menu).
And the hardware : i've picked up the best of 5 (!!!!) E72's in the shop. I had 5 E72's on the table .. 4 of them had loose covers (below spacebar) ... loose battery-covers and other moving parts. It's way too much cheap plastic.
And also on the phone I have now .. battery-cover can be pressed and is loose.
So believe me .. free Ovi Maps is great, that made me choose for the E72 in the end ... but it's not a present from Nokia ... it's something they HAD TO DO (if u ask me) to make their phones interesting enough.
There is no 'hate' in my post ... just dissapointment about a company I admired once. They obviously choose for a BIG (emerging) market of cheap phones ... instead of a little bit smaller market with high-end smartphones.

I have exactly the same feelings about this phone, build quality is BAD !!! I also have those loose covers (below spacebar and at battery). I've managed to modify the back cover manualy by deflecting it in my hands and now fits to phone very well without any looses. But the cover should be well fitted out of the NOKIA's factory, not by my handsy... My previous phone was Sonyericsson c902 and for me its the best build cell phone ever.
For me Nokia was a leader in high-end mobile phones with excelent quality and materials but now is only a another company that makes cell phones (not the cheapest and definitelly not the best build) ...
03-02-2010 21:54
well guys, I also have to admit that the build quality of the E72 vs E71 is a hands down winner for the E71.
U also see the plastic cover below the space bar is movable. I don't care about the leaking light. but the battery cover....slightly open on one side. not well designed.
03-02-2010 21:57
My back cover has a bit of wriggle actually, botch sideways and up down (meaning towards and away from the battery). But it doesn't come off or anything, so honestly I don't really get all the fuss. Check out this link;
This guy opened up an E72 and it looks rock solid on the inside. I don't really care if the battery cover wriggles a little.
04-02-2010 21:15
I have to go along with the heading. Yes, my battery covers fits neatly and tightly but if I so much as look at the catch it springs open.
OK, slight exageration but just lightly brushing the catch with a fingertip or taking it out of a pocket can open it.
15-02-2010 14:21
Hmm. the E72's back cover... yup, I've had it accidentally fall off twice when I was getting the phone out of my pocket. Granted, statistically, it's not a big number, but it could be annoying if I was about to answer a call and the back cover fell off, including the battery.
In normal usage though, the battery cover fits OK. But aside from that 2 times, there were also a few times when the back cover slipped off when I hadn't intended to. Must have accidentally moved the back cover.
Ok, just voicing my experiences, not exactly complaining, it could probably have been slightly better designed, but for what it's worth, I'd say it's still OK.
Anyone with more experiences of the back cover slipping off by itself without you intending to?
17-02-2010 2:54
I have no problem on mine..
Maybe I'm just lucky..
17-02-2010 3:02
Agree the build quality on E72 is dissapointing. Light leakages and the side could be pressed though slightly. Just the other day I had the chance to inspect one of those cheap China's brand cell phone and to my amazement their build quiality is great. The only gripe is that their software is so bad. Not buggy but feels very rough and outdated.
17-02-2010 4:49
Maybe you bought your phone in common celphone shops or internet, not in Nokia flagship shops. You don't know where your phone assembled, you can not physically scrutinize the unit before buying, so no guarantee you get the good physical quality unit.
18-02-2010 6:21
My E72 cover is ok, doesn't move when in place or anything,. the only prblem I have that it often "pops out"... it gets "unhooked" too quickly...
22-02-2010 10:06
The one I got is solid in every physical aspect, not even a squeak out of it. A couple of my buddies have the E71's but I'm the only one with the E72, and it's been good to me...
24-02-2010 10:44
I have the E72-1 and it is fine
26-02-2010 15:02
The hardware on my E72 is fine, I actually think it is good. The software is unfinished though.

Natural Cleaning Products by Full Circle
09.15.11 Natural Cleaning Products by Full Circle
Are you ready to bid farewell to cleaning products made of harsh chemicals? Then, we are here to help! We're pleased to announce that we have added a line of all natural cleaning products by Full Circle. My favorite product is the DIY cleaning kit, where you make your own natural cleaners from ingredients that can be picked up easily at your local grocery store.
We also carry several of Full Circle's cleaning tools. In place of petroleum-based plastic, Full Circle uses bamboo or Bonterra. Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants in the world. Since bamboo is naturally anti-fungal and anti-bacterial, it doesn't require any pesticides or fertilizers during cultivation. Bonterra looks and feels just like plastic – it's also just as durable – but is made from fully biodegradable plant starch and cellulose.
Here is a closer look at each of the Full Circle products that we are proud to offer:
Suds Up Dish Brush: This soap dispensing dish brush is environmentally friendly, effective and attractive! The bamboo handle is finished with all natural oils and is designed with a flat bottom allowing you to stand the brush upright for germ-free drying. The all-natural bristle brush is top-rack dishwasher safe.
Reach Bottle Brush: The ingenious design of this bottle brush allows you to clean the inside AND the outside in one fell swoop. It's made from 100% recycled stainless steel and recycled plastic. It's perfect for cleaning water bottles, baby bottles and travel coffee mugs. The ergonomic, flexible handle means it's comfortable and easy to use. It also allows you to simply hang the brush over your faucet for storage and quick drying.
Flip Loofah Natural Sponges: Finally, a 100% biodegradable sponge and scrubber in one. The tough, natural loofah on one side allows you to effectively scrub away stuck on food while the soft cellulose sponge on the other side gently cleans your dishes.
Squeeze Cellulose Sponge Cloths: These plant-based reusable cloths are a great substitute for paper towels They work just like a paper towel, but last for months. Wipe up spills, clean your counters - even do your dishes. To sanitize, all you need to do is run them through the top rack of your dishwasher or boil them in water.
Come Clean Spray Bottle and Natural Cleaning Set: Forgo toxic chemical cleaners and make your own all natural cleaning solutions. The recipe booklet has step-by-step instructions for mixing ingredients that are gentle on the environment (and our health), yet powerful enough to effectively clean bathrooms, kitchens, glass, wood, upholstery, metals and pet stains. You can view this video for a better understanding of how to use the Come Clean set.
Do you make any of your own cleaning products? If so, we'd love to hear about your favorite recipes! Also, we're researching ready-to-use natural cleaning products to add to the site. What are your favorite brands?

Cinema and India are as intertwined with each other as is a child to his/her mother. One of the two biggest film industries in the world, Bollywood has created a name for itself due to the quality of movies and actors produced by it. As we celebrate 100 years of Hindi cinema on May 3, 2013, let's take a look at the biggest blockbusters of the century, which have remained in the hearts of the audiences, no matter how old they are.
This epic melodrama came at a time when women were used as mere props by men in movies. Breaking all trends, 'Mother India' became one of the first women-centric movies, personifying the power of women. This Nargis-Sunil Dutt starrer is still regarded as one of the best films of Hindi cinema.
This 1960 Indian epic film – directed by K.Asif – is probably the biggest and the best love story ever narrated by any filmmaker. More than half a century may have passed by since the movie was made, but the dialogues, songs like 'Jab Pyaar Kia Toh Darna Kya', passionate love and Madhubala's unmatched beauty are still remembered by one and all.
Listed number 5 by Time Magazine in its list of Best Bollywood Classics, 'Guide' – starring Dev Anand and Waheeda Rehman – is widely considered to be one of the masterpieces of Indian cinema. So much so that a US version of the Box Office hit was made and screened at the Cannes Film Festival in 2007 – more than 40 years after its release.
This comedy starring Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan and Sharmila Tagore is one hell of a joy ride. Professor Parimal Tripathi still lives in the memory of people as one nervous and lovable character. The movie – which revolves around a mind-blowing prank – is yet unparalleled.
The Amitabh Bachchan – Shashi Kapoor starrer – directed by Yash Chopra – shows the tumultuous politics of the early 70s in India. The movie – which established Amitabh as the "angry young man" – was a smashing hit at the Box Office and was also ranked as the 4th highest grossing flick in 1975.
Apart from being remembered for its amazing storyline and characters, this action film is full of power-packed dialogues, which till date have failed to fade away. Dialogues like 'Yeah haath mujhe dede thakur', 'Basanti inn kutton ke saamne matt naachna' and 'Arrey oo sambha kitne aadmi thee?' are still fresh in every cine lover's memory.
Don – which has gained the status of a cult movie – was declared a hit at the Box Office in the year of its release. Dealing with powerful people in crime, the Amitabh Bachchan starrer turned out to be so successful that a remake and its sequel – starring Shah Rukh Khan – have been made till date and have also turned out to be super hits.
'Mogambo Khush Hua' – the dialogue which has become synonymous with Amrish Puri – is one of Bollywood's favourite quotes till date. Not one celebration of the film fraternity goes by without enactment of this dialogue. Probably one of the first few Bollywood films on superheroes, Anil Kapoor and Sridevi's mind-blowing performances have made this movie a must-watch for people of all age.
Starring Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla in their first major roles, this romantic movie created ripples at the Box Office owing to the strong emotion of love at its core. The movie turned out to be such a success that the protagonists shot to fame overnight.
One of the best comedy films till date, this movie – which stars Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Raveena Tandon and Karishma Kapoor – is widely remembered for its songs, unique storyline and witty one-liners like 'Teja main hoon mark idhar hai'. Not to forget the acting of all the actors too.
Every girl's dream of the perfect lover and the perfect wedding came true in 'Hum Apke Hain Kaun'. With 14 songs in its kitty, the movie has touched and still touches the hearts of all its viewers. The songs, dance sequences, love, bonding and family values all round up to a must-watch for cinema freaks.
Yash Chopra's epic love story portrayed in 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' still remains fresh no matter how many times one watches it. Raj and Simran – the protagonists in the film – have almost been epitomised by every lover and the dialogue 'Jaa Simran jee le apni zindagi' is not unknown to anybody in the country.
Words fail when it comes to describing movies like 'Dil Chahta Hai'. With a mix of emotions – love, friendship, lust, jealousy and ego – this movie fails to fade with time.
Aamir 'Mr. Perfectionist' Khan's movie – which narrated the story of farmers oppressed by the British during their rule – not only touched the hearts of the audience, but became such a hit that it was nominated in the best foreign film category at the Oscars.
Among one of Sanjay Dutt's best performances, this comedy flick strung a lot a notes in the heart of the audiences at the same time – love, friendship and crime. Apart from Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi also came into the limelight for his ability to tickle the funny bone of the viewers.
One of Aamir Khan's best performances till date, the movie dealt with the prevalent corruption in the Indian system. Even though the movie faced stiff resistance from the Defence Ministry of India, it still won the hearts of the audience due to the truth reflected in the story.
One of the first movies dedicated to the sport hockey, and that too women's hockey, 'Chak De India' drifted to an entirely new genre of filmmaking. Considered to be among Shah Rukh Khan's best performances ever, the movie managed to reign over the Box Office despite not having a lead actress, a love story or any love songs.
Loosely adapted from Chetan Bhagat's 'Five Point Someone', this movie was nothing like anything seen before in Hindi cinema. With the pressure building on kids to do well in their studies, the movie kind of mocked at the education system that believes only in learning and not in understanding. Defying his age, Aamir Khan looked years younger than he actually was and Sharman Joshi and Madhavan also acted their parts brilliantly.
Salman Khan – whose movies rarely flop at the Box Office – delivered a power-packed performance in 'Dabangg'. Known for his witty lines and natural acting, Chulbul Pandey went on to create history with one of Bollywood's highest grossing movies ever.
Based on Silk Smitha's real life, 'The Dirty Picture' gained commercial success and went on to win many awards including those for the best picture, best director and best actress. Naseeruddin Shah, Tusshar Kapoor and Emraan Hashmi all played their parts well but Vidya Balan stood out for her commendable portrayal of the South Indian actress.

Kokomo Tribune
---- — Host families needed in Howard County
Last month, a group of students and volunteers with Youth For Understanding spent the day in Indianapolis visiting our capital city. The students were given a ride around the 500-mile race track, enjoyed a tour of the Statehouse and ended with a night watching the Indianapolis Indians play baseball. The students really enjoyed getting to know more about their second home.
For the last 30 years, Howard County has opened its homes to international exchange students from around the world. Almost 250 students are proud to call Howard County their second home. The schools in Howard County are looking for additional students for the coming school year. They have discovered everything the students have to offer the schools, the families and the community.
I receive messages all the time from former students, telling me how much they miss this area of the world. We think of this as just a small town with not much to do. To the students, this is their second home. Through their eyes they see our community as a caring, loving place they were lucky enough to call home for a year.
Youth For Understanding is looking for families in all of Howard County to consider opening their homes and their hearts to an exchange student between the ages of 15 and 18. They will arrive in August with full medical insurance, spending money and the hopes for a wonderful year with their new family and community.
The family has to agree to provide the student with a bed of their own, three meals a day and lots of love and support. Families come in many forms, including families with children, childless couples, empty nesters, retirees and single-person households.
To learn more about hosting an exchange student with YFU, call Sharon Strasser at 574-722-1615 or send an email to email@example.com. Visit YFU on the Web at www.yfu-usa.org.

'You will alwaysbe in our hearts'
We would like to take the time to say thank you to everyone in the Kokomo area, especially to the community of Greentown, for all of your support over the past four years. It was our pleasure to represent our school, our community and, most importantly, our friends and family.
The last four years were a blast, and it is sad to see it end. But we are excited to take our talents to Bloomington. We hope to have an impact on others at Indiana University and are extremely grateful for the opportunities ahead of us.
This all could not have been possible without the support and generosity that we have received from each and every one of you. Although we are Bloomington bound, we will never forget where we came from and the support we have received.
You have helped us create memories we will never forget. Thank you so much for all that you have done for us! You will always be in our hearts!

Trophia would probably say that his dream started in upstate New York when, at age 9, he took his first caterpillar home and watched it turn into a butterfly.

Ten years ago, Trophia and his partner, George Fernandez, moved to Key West, not in search of his banded butterflies but to open Wings of Imagination, a butterfly gallery and boutique that served as a showcase for Trophia's original butterfly art and artifacts and as a springboard for his Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory.
The partners traveled to butterfly conservatories around the world in search of ideas. Five years ago, in a restaurant, Trophia drew his vision of a conservatory on a napkin. Three years later, the official groundbreaking occurred, but what Trophia expected to take eight months to undergo metamorphosis took almost two years.
Now that the conservatory is up and running, that time seems as fleeting as, well, the lifespan of a butterfly, which in most cases is a week to 10 days.
The KWBNC, which officially opened at the end of January, is a 5,000-square-foot Victorian-design house of glass (Plexiglas, really) with 37-foot Plexiglas ceilings, and an average computer-controlled temperature of 85 degrees (the humidity is 80 percent). And it's home to 1,500 or so butterflies, representing as many as 50 species from farms (these butterflies are not collected in the wild) in Central, South and North America, Africa and Southeast Asia.
Chrysalises (aka pupae) are sent to the conservatory where, in the hatching room, they become butterflies. (You can watch this happen through the windows.) Then they're transferred in a specially designed container to the conservatory, where they can dine on over-ripened fruit and flower nectar from approximately 3,500 purposefully chosen and strategically located plants -- pentas, orchids, milkweed, passion vines, lantana.
Walk around and you'll see Owl butterflies from Costa Rica (they roost during the day); Great Mormons from the Philippines; Viceroys, Julias and monarchs from Florida; Bird- wings from New Guinea; and Paper Kites, from Malaysia, that are so flaccid they look like pieces of toilet paper blowing in the breeze.
You'll also see staff, usually Trophia and Fernandez, milling around, ready to answer questions. The most frequently asked questions?
"Do you have the deadhead moth?" (Made famous in The Silence of the Lambs.)
Trophia's answer: "We could, but we don't." (As movie buffs know: "A grave misfortune to those who handle it.")
Says Trophia, "Why tempt fate?"
And: "How do butterflies mate?"
Answer: "Look over there." (With so many butterflies in such a perfect environment, love is always in the air.)
Sit down on one of the benches shaped like butterflies and wait for a butterfly to join you. It won't take long, especially if you're wearing something bright. To a butterfly, you'll look like a flower.
The rainforest refuge
Geibelt had been dreaming of a rain forest for the past 15 years. He loved tropical plants, but he also needed to hide the hideous building next door and drown out the drone of the compression engine at the grocery store behind Heron House, the 23-room hotel Geibelt owns with his partner, Robert Framarin. Until Geibelt officially dug the first hole in the summer of 1998, it had been an idea germinating in his imagination.
"This rain forest had to create a mood, a sense of relaxation and calm. And a sense of well-being," he says. "It had to make Heron House guests forget that they were in Key West. The rain forest becomes the refuge, the escape."
