Much to the dismay of some of the responders here, this camera will not be priced at $2500. Get ready for a $3500 price tag.
Why would Canon bring the 5D3 in at a price over that of the original 5D? I can see no justification for it, either in their practices nor the competitive landscape that is the current market.

Stopped by on a recent trip to Canmore and for a small wine store I was surprised to find a small selection of quality brews. The selection is small with less then 50 to choose from but all chosen wisely. The nice English lady working the counter was clearly not a beer geek but she was very helpful. Hard to rate this place because it's small and clearly wine snobs would be their target customers. That being said I found several brews I've yet to try and you can tell someone has put thought into every beer they carry. You won't find macro crap or 40's of Big Bear no matter how hard you look. Prices are high but that should be expected on Main Street Canmore. I picked up some Hop Stupid and Punk IPA and walked 5 minuets to my favorite Bow River bench and had a nice afternoon with my lady who picked up some quality cider. Even with the tiny selection this will be my first stop every time I pass through the Mountains from now on.

Canmore Wine Merchants - the "purveyors of unusual wines, spirits and beers" - is located at the tip of Canmore's Main Street (8th Street) and is only a short (5 minute or less) walk from the Grizzly Paw Brewpub. It's conveniently located and likely the best (possibly only) place you'll find a quality selection of beer in the Rocky Mountain vicinity.
The store is not big and focuses primarily on wine. Still, it manages a significant selection of local and American micros and a number of choice European imports. Specifics at the time of my visit include the more local (Alley Kat, Wild Rose, Tree Brewing) as well as six packs from other parts of Canada (Mill Street, Half Pints and Dieu Du Ciel). Most of the American offerings are from the west coast (Lagunitas, Pyramid, Pike Street, Rogue). The imports include an assortment of British, Belgian and German offerings (including some Trappists and Lindemans lambics).
Prices are significantly higher than you'd be able to find in Calgary, but this is to be expected in a smaller, touristy town. Many of the non-local beers climbed to $20/sixer where as the more local ones were approximately $13-$15 (which is about average for the region). The prices, on the whole, are by no means unreasonable, accepting of course that you'd probably have to drive an hour to find any comparable selection. The purveyors are knowledgeable and must obviously have a good deal of passion to go out of their way to bring in the beers they do.
You don't go to Canmore for the beer, you go for the mountains or skiing or hiking or proximity to Banff, etc. But for whatever reason you find yourself there, and if you happen to be thirsty, I'd highly recommend the Grizzly Paw Brewpub for a few pints and, since you're so close, why not wonder down to Canmore Wine Merchants and see if they have anything else you might like. Chances are they will.

A Washington Park man has been charged with shooting a man to death on an Englewood porch last week.
Victor Willis, 22, allegedly shot and killed 25-year-old John Wallace during an argument Sept. 1 in the 6400 block of South Morgan Street, police said.

Wallace was taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, where he was pronounced dead at 12:20 a.m., according to the medical examiner's office.

In a moment that immediately brings to mind the tragedy of Hank Gathers' death, Division II University of Southern Indiana basketball player Jeron Lewis collapsed late in a game Thursday night and was pronounced dead at the hospital.
"The university community is heartbroken with the passing of this outstanding young man," said USI President Linda Bennett. "Jeron was an excellent example of a student athlete who strove to be the best that he could be. He will be truly missed, not only by his teammates, but by the university community. Our prayers are with Jeron's family in their time of need."
No word yet on what caused Jeron's untimely death. An autopsy is scheduled for Friday.
Making the story even more tragic, Jeron has just returned to USI after returning home to Fort Wayne for the birth of his first child.
The Eagles are in the midst of a great season and had the 6-foot-8, 260-pound center to thank for much of their success. Currently 16-0 and ranked No. 5 in the country, no word yet on their upcoming games and whether or not they will postpone.

Learn and practice techniques for sharing Yoga Nidra with children through stories, art and games.
Yoga Nidra, or 'yogic sleep', is the practice of learning to welcome what is, as it is. Through this anxiety-reducing practice of relaxation, meditation and visualization, children will develop the ability to induce a sense of deep relaxation to help clear the mind, re-pattern thoughts and memories and reduce anxiety about future events. When kids are less stressed, they learn better too. Through the practice of Yoga Nidra, you will help children expand their imaginations and place them in an inner space of calm, helping to eliminate negative behavioral patterns.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Chicago all the way
BOSTON -- Bryan Bickell and Dave Bolland scored goals 17 seconds apart Monday as the Chicago Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup in dramatic fashion with an amazing 3-2 last-minute comeback victory over the Boston Bruins in Game 6 of the final.
Milan Lucic's third-period goal had seemed to give the Bruins a 2-1 victory and a new lease of life in the final.
But with Chicago goalie Corey Crawford out for an extra attacker, Bickell tied it up at 18:44 after Jonathan Toews circled out of the corner when Boston was unable to clear the puck. With two teammates waiting for him in front of the goal, Toews chose Bickell and the game was suddenly tied.
Bolland then won the Cup seconds after the puck drop, tucking in a rebound of a Johnny Oduya point shot that hit the goalpost. Bolland nipped between two defenders to redirect the puck in at 19:01 to stun the Bruins and previously raucous crowd at TD Garden.
Toews, reduced to a spectator the final minutes of Game 5, added a goal and an assist for Chicago as the Blackhawks clawed their way back into the game. The captain was the first to hoist the Cup as his teammates jumped up and down.
Crawford finished with 23 saves in the victory that marked Chicago's fifth championship and second in four years.
-- Jonathan Toews
"That team in 2010, we didn't really know what we were doing," Toews said. "We played great hockey, and we were kind of oblivious to how good we were playing. This time around we know definitely how much work it takes and how much sacrifice it takes to get back here, and this is an unbelievable group.
"We've been through a lot together this year, and this is a sweet way to finish it off."
Added Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville: "It's always the greatest feeling in the world, so it can't be any better. So it's always a tie, and once you do it, you can't wait to do it again. The stories, the ups and downs and the process of trying to win a Cup, that's what makes it so special.
Chris Kelly had the other goal for Boston, while Tuukka Rask made 28 saves. The Bruins offence was limited by a power play that went 0-for-4 on the night.
Lucic had taken advantage of a Crawford handling error behind the goal to give the Bruins a 2-1 lead at 12:11. The bruising forward disrupted the Chicago goalie and when the puck came back in front from David Krejci in the corner, Lucic wristed it in.
The Bruins, who won the Stanley Cup in 2011, had their way with the Blackhawks in the first period, but only managed to turn that dominance into a 1-0 lead. Chicago rallied in the second to tie it up and make a contest out of it before completing the memorable comeback.
Tied 1-1 going into the third, the game was up for grabs. And the stakes were high, ratcheting up the pressure for the capacity crowd of 17,565 -- Boston's 165th straight sellout.
It made for a fast-placed third period, with both teams getting chances in what felt like overtime. A lot of hearts were in throats as pucks flew through the crease or just missed sticks.
Both goalies -- Rask for Boston and Crawford for Chicago -- were in the zone. They never really left it during a series where goals were hard to come by most nights.
Both teams endured a bumpy ride to get to Game 6. There were question marks over the health of Chicago's Toews and Boston star Patrice Bergeron. It was revealed that Toews had his bell rung in Game 5, while Bergeron had a broken rib and cartilage damage before separating his shoulder in Game 6.
Chicago's Marian Hossa, who was dealing with a back injury, and Boston's Nathan Horton were also playing hurt.
The players also had to contend with searing summer heat in the low 30s that did little for the ice. It was warmer in Beantown than Libya. A thin layer of fog was visible over the ice as the Bruins started their morning skate over some bumpy ice.
Monday matched the deepest the Stanley Cup playoffs have stretched into the summer. New Jersey capped its sweep of Detroit on June 24, 1995, in the last lockout-shortened season.
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman was once again booed after the game. Chicago sniper Patrick Kane won the Conn Smythe award as playoff MVP.
The final, the first to feature Original Six teams since Montreal defeated the New York Rangers in 1979, did not disappoint.
There were three overtime games and plenty of drama as the speed and skill of Chicago was matched against the hard-hitting Bruins who balanced talent with truculence. But in truth, both teams had a bit of everything including clutch goaltending and a high pain threshold.

SAN FRANCISCO (BP) -- A seminary president on the West Coast is warning that the rapid loss of biblical values in California poses a substantial danger to the rest of the nation.
Healthy churches are part of the solution, Jeff Iorg, president of Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary, told Baptist Press following a California Supreme Court decision to deny a petition to enforce Proposition 8, the voter-approved constitutional amendment to define marriage as between one man and one woman.
The issuing of gay marriage licenses is among several controversial social changes in California, from passing a transgender restroom bill to banning conversion therapy for those with same-sex attractions.
"The challenges in California to biblical values are the vanguard of what is coming to the rest of the nation," Iorg said. "Ground we lose here will soon be lost everywhere."
Every step away from biblical values weakens the nation, Iorg said.
"In California, we are already overwhelmed with the results of these choices: rising alcohol and drug abuse, overcrowded prison system, social service organizations scrambling to help distressed persons, etc.," Iorg said.
Amid the downward spiral, "the most hopeful signs are the rising tide of church planting and growing concern for pastors to revitalize existing churches through biblical preaching and teaching," Iorg said.
The California Supreme Court, in a brief, unanimous ruling Aug. 14, did not address the constitutionality of Proposition 8 and left supporters of traditional marriage few legal options in defending the initiative approved by 7 million California voters in 2008.
Austin Nimocks of Alliance Defending Freedom, the legal group that filed the petition along with ProtectMarriage.com, said elected officials should enforce the law.
"Though the current California officials are unwilling to enforce the state constitution, we remain hopeful that one day Californians will elect officials who will," Nimocks said in a written statement.
Nimocks maintains that Proposition 8 is still the law of the land in California despite public officials who refuse to enforce it and have proceeded with issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. The court's decision, he said, "does not end the debate about marriage in California."
Andy Pugno of ProtectMarriage.com said the decision "leaves grave doubts about the future of the initiative process" in California.
"Now voters will be less confident than ever that their votes will mean something," Pugno said. "When politicians disregard the law, and the courts refuse to get involved, what are we left with?"
Ron Prentice of the California Family Council said, "Homosexual marriage is now being allowed in California precisely because California's governor and attorney general were unwilling to defend the will of the people and our state's constitution.
"The Supreme Courts of California and the United States have also neglected their duties to protect the authority of law and the people's right to direct democracy through the initiative process," Prentice said.
"This decision marks an extreme period of lawlessness that can only be countered by a response from voters, to take from office those whose ideological agendas deny the existence of moral absolutes, and who aggressively seek to destroy the liberties of conscience and religious faith," Prentice said.
Proposition 8 supporters point out that when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June that ProtectMarriage.com did not have legal standing to appeal a U.S. district judge's opinion striking down the amendment, the nation's high court did not rule on Proposition 8's constitutionality.
The district court order did not apply statewide, ADF said, meaning that no qualified body has yet ruled Proposition 8 unconstitutional. California's governor, attorney general and other officials, therefore, lacked proper authority when they instructed counties to begin issuing marriage licenses in conflict with Proposition 8.
"Article III, section 3.5 of the California Constitution prohibits government agencies and officials from declaring state law unenforceable, or declining to enforce state law, on the basis that the law is unconstitutional, unless an appellate court has first made that determination," ADF said.
Among other controversial social changes in California recently, Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law Aug. 12 giving transgender K-12 students the right "to participate in sex-segregated programs, activities and facilities" based on their perception of their gender regardless of biology.
Last year Brown signed a bill banning efforts by therapists to help teenagers overcome same-sex attractions. The law was put on hold by the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals pending a resolution on its constitutionality.
Earlier this year, a bill was introduced in the California Senate that would penalize youth organizations, including the Boy Scouts, that discriminate on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation. Such organizations could lose their tax-exempt status.

UVM leader wants to make admissions harderTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | December 11,2012BURLINGTON The new president of the University of Vermont wants to reduce the number of undergraduate students on the Burlington campus and make the school harder to get in to for out-of-state applicants, as part of a plan to enhance the quality and affordability of the school.
But the increased selectivity would not come at the expense of Vermont students.
To help accomplish the goal, UVM is allocating up to $500,000 in surplus funds for beefing up efforts to meet the new goals in enrollment management.
The money will pay for enhanced student recruitment efforts via direct mail and by personal visits of admissions officers to high schools and college fairs, said UVM Vice President for Enrollment Management Chris Lucier.
Being more selective will also help attract better faculty, Lucier said.
Great faculty wants great students in their classroom and working with them on their research as undergraduates, Lucier said. If you have great faculty, students want to study at UVM to engage with the faculty in and out of the classroom.
The school also plans to hire three more admissions counselors who will focus on other areas, including Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago, South Florida and southern California.
By the standard measure of selectivity, UVM was slightly less selective in 2012 than it was a decade ago. In the fall of 2002, UVM agreed to admit 71.5 percent of applicants. This year UVM accepted 76.6 percent.
UVM president Thomas Sullivans goal is to bring the figure down to about 65 percent, the Burlington Free Press reported.
Currently UVM accepts 70 percent to 75 percent of Vermont applicants.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER A lawsuit filed Wednesday against the state Department for Children and Families... Full Story

Hi, I'm Haley Amber. I was born in Portland, ME, January 3, 1995. I was introduced to history and genealogy at a young age by my father, who is very dear to me and is always my traveling buddy on our cemetery searches across Maine. Marble stones can be interesting, but we both prefer the slate stones.
Your tombstone stands among the rest, Neglected and alone.
The name and date are chiseled out...On old gray granite stone.
It reaches out to all who care...It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist...You died...and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you...In flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse...Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled...One hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left...Who would have loved you so.
I wonder when you lived and loved; I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot...And come and visit you."

Henry family brookside cemetery
Dear Haley I don't know if you are the one I say this to or not, I am not sure how this system works yet. I am writing in about John and Barbara Henry in Brookside cemetery. I knew these people really well in life for over forty years. I sent in an edit that they are in deed man and wife and that he was born in Brooklyn N.Y. I sent the edit in a week or more ago and I don't know if it goes to you or to find a grave. I guess I am thinking if it did go to you perhaps find a grave did not send you an e mail telling you that I sent this edit in. I am just now getting into this web site. I hope indeed this is the right person to notify. Thank you very much. I like your site with the interesting graves. I am from Maine half my life and the other half from Ohio. My sons also follow me on grave hunts and like to do what you do with your father. My hope is that my sons stick with it after I am gone.

Hello Haley: I have a problem for you that is happening all over the place on findagrave website. Your picture that you placed Saturday has appeared on a memorial page for this person: William Brockmire 1875-1956 memorial #7407916 at New Lorimier Cemetery, Cape Girardeau, Mo. Can you believe that a picture from Maine would get put on a page here in Missouri? It was happening Saturday and is driving me nuts. I had just taken 115 pictures on Friday and was trying to download them to the cemetery here and began to see different pictures. Then people were sending me messages that my pictures appeared on their pages. Could you delete your picture on his page? But I will warn you someone told me when you do that, your picture will disappear on the correct memorial page so hopefully you have the picture still in your computer. Thanks for your help in solving this problem. Ruth

Another family is without a home in Lowndes County after a fire destroyed half their home. South Georgia Red Cross officials say in the past two months, they've had to assist twice the number of families as compared to last year.
Half of a home destroyed by fire and a family without a place to live is one more disaster in Lowndes County that's becoming a regular occurrence. South Georgia Red Cross officials say they've had to provide shelter to eight families in just the past two months.
"We're not really sure why, we do know that most of the fires have been attributed to cooking fires, my biggest advice to folks out there right now is to please if you've got to leave the stove, step out of the room, turn it off," said Jack Looney, South Georgia Red Cross Emergency Services Manager.
The cause of the fire that damaged the home to seven people Tuesday night is still undetermined. But homeowner Andrea Wright, her children, and grandchildren all got out safely. One neighbor said the family had been living in the Stock Pen Road home for ten years.
"It's just kind of sad you know to lose your home, especially with the way the economy is, I know it's going to be kind of hard on them," said Henry Turner.
"When you get that call at 2 o'clock in the morning and you respond and you see the family standing outside of what used to be their home and personal possessions and now it's just a pile of ashes, you can't help but your heart goes out to them," said Looney.
Looney says this winter the organization expects to respond to more than 200 house fires in the south Georgia region. He says most winter fires are caused by space heaters.
"Be careful with space heaters, obviously don't put them too close to your bed linen, and please turn them off before you go to sleep," said Looney.
From storm damage to house fires the Red Cross depends on donations to provide food, shelter, and even clothing to families during a disaster.
The South Georgia Red Cross will typically provide up to 72 hours of shelter to families like the Wrights.

Differences between TOS and ST09

Differences between TOS and ST09
At least in terms of goofiness the new movie seems to be very much like TOS, even more so than TFF. But there is something fishy about this idea.
I couldn't put my finger on it until now and I think that the concept of virtue might provide some insights.
Let's approach the issue first via the humour and then via the three main characters.
TOS is often funny and virtually all of the folks, except for perhaps Sulu and Uhura, frequently fool around. They enjoy their company, ease their daily troubles but basically they are all serious, hard-working folks.
In ST09 on the other hand you get more self-ridiculing humour. The postmodern kind of eternally self-reflexive, relativizing big puff. We don't just try to have a good time during our long days but it's all just a game.
That's an easy but not a virtuous way to deal with the troubles of life. Scotty's jokes are perhaps the best example of this kind of humour and it is worthwhile to point out that the old Scotty was usually involuntarily funny (except when he drank Scotch or got written and directed to bump into a bulkhead by Shatner) precisely when he was deadly serious.
McCoy is his cranky old self and due to Urban's brilliant performance there are no apparent differences. If you have just seen the movies and a few random TOS episodes you could easily get the impression that he is just an ill-tempered old guy. But from time to time we see how much he really cares about his patients and his friends. Beneath his bickering with Spock their deep friendship only appears a few times.
As McCoy's warm side has appeared so infrequently it's not a big deal that we haven't seen it in ST09. That's indeed true but NuMcCoy has gone through some trouble in his life which makes it seem as if he is cranky precisely because of that. The acting was top notch but the writing changes the temperamental but warm old country doctor into a cranky and cynical young man.
Kirk has experienced fascist horrors on Tarsus IV in his youth, bullying in the Academy and failure when he faced the vampire cloud on the Farragut as young ensign. Despite of that he turned into a thoughtful and self-doubting but at the same time playful and confident young captain.
NuKirk has gone through similar experiences. Too much and wrong order on Tarsus IV now became too much and wrong order at home, he got bullied by other Starfleet cadets even before he entered the Academy and he also faced failure when he cheated during the Kobayashi Maru test and was reprimanded for it. So like his first version he faces nasty order (Tarsus IV, evil stepfather) as well as nasty chaos (bullying, personal failure) but instead of balancing them wisely he just becomes the stereotypical adolescent who rejects order and enjoys chaos.
Spock who is even more so than Kirk in an eternal struggle between chaos and order chose his Vulcan side. The main theme in TOS is that his human side is lurking underneath the surface and that Spock is more human than he admits. This is most clearly visible in This Side of Paradise and Amok Time. His saga ends in TUC, Unification and ST09 with him accepting his human side openly.
While Spock joined Starfleet in order to secretly explore and embrace his human side (that's precisely why he is so uber-Vulcan in TOS) EmoSpock did it in order to flip off the racist Vulcan establishment. Mummy was insulted so he has to indirectly defend her. With mummy being the main reason he is in Starfleet he consequently goes nuts when she dies (which would also have impacted Spock but not so strongly) and he is later encouraged to continue along this path of being an unorthodox, more relaxed type of Vulcan by Sarek as well as his future self. The consequences of this ill advise to continue to be EmoSpock are clearly visible when he calmly tells Kirk that he yearns to avenge the death of mummy.
On the surface it appears that there is not much difference, after all the balanced old Spock gives his younger self the advise to be like him. Yet Spock's happy state is the result of a life-long struggle from discipline to slowly letting it go and realizing that it is possible. He can't reveal the end result to his younger self without telling him about the path that let to that goal.
Same with Sarek, he can't tell Spock to not suppress his emotions because his beautiful admission that he has loved Amanda (as if Spock hadn't known that) gets perverted into an injunction to let the inner Romulan out.
Spock slowly allowed himself to let his guard down and create some space for intuition, gut-feeling and love whereas EmoSpock allows himself quickly to do whatever the hell he wants to.
All three main characters have one thing in common, they are virtuous people. Not necessarily heroes, in the case of McCoy not even special but precisely that, being just a good old country doctor, makes McCoy so grand.
The second versions of these characters which were truly fantastically played on the other hand all lack virtue. This doesn't mean that they are vicious or wicked, that they do bad work or that they aren't capable of heroic deeds. After all Spock and Kirk did gamble with their life when they went on the Narada. But all the big heroics can't substitute the emptiness in their hearts which are filled with cynicism and despair, adolescent arrogance, reveling in your own emotions ... but not virtues.
It's not easy to be a virtuous person, I personally don't think I am one so this is not meant to be some moral superiority game. It's perhaps not even a writing issue but indicative of these materialistic and cynical times that fictional characters adapt these qualities.
I am perhaps simple-minded and unhip but I mainly enjoy Trek because it features good people who do good things for good reasons.
So I hope that this doesn't get misread as a hateful bashing of a movie which I truly enjoyed but as a mourning of things that got lost.
When you tell the truth and take a stand, sometimes it means that you will walk the streets with a burdened heart. Sometimes it means losing a job, means being abused and scorned. It may mean having a seven, eight year old child asking a daddy, "Why do you have to go to jail so much?" And I've long since learned that to be a follower to the Jesus Christ means taking up the cross. And my bible tells me that Good Friday comes before Easter. - MLK, Why I Am Opposed to the War in Vietnam

Jansen, a 6ft 2 inch 200 lb catcher and Disch a 6ft 1inch 180 right handed pitcher both signed Letters of Intent in November to play with the Dolphins in the 2014 season.
The story chronicles their friendship and time as teammates from their youths to competing in high school and now attending JU in the fall.

Over the course of my 12 years of school, I have had many different teachers. I have had hard teachers, funny teachers, and some teachers who are out of their minds. The one teacher who has had the greatest influence on me is Mrs. Nelson. She is funny, she has great energy, and she loves teaching. She shows devotion towards her students and will go out of her way to help them when they are struggling. She is, by far, one of the best teachers I have ever had.
On September 2, 2005, I underwent emergency brain surgery and spent a total of six weeks in the hospital. This was a very bad time in my life. I was close to dying and the outcome of my recovery was unknown. When I came back to school after my brain injury, she helped me out extremely. She went out of her way to help me with assignments for all of my classes. She showed, most importantly, great patience with me. When I first came back to school, I was forgetful about things and couldn't remember the material I learned. She was there to help me with all of my work and get caught up if I ever fell behind.
She has been teaching for a long time and is one of the most experienced teachers in Arrowhead Union High School. She is respected by every teacher in the school and is a mentor for upcoming teachers who are just starting out in their careers.
Mrs. Nelson is spectacular. She is so easy to talk to and she is a great listener. When students go to her for help, she listens to what they have to say and puts all of her effort into helping them out. She has an awesome influence on her students and treats each of them like they are her children, which is nice because she shows her students she is passionate about giving them the best education possible.
Mrs. Nelson is one of the coolest teachers that I have ever had. She has touched my life and she has touched many other students' lives as well. If I ever tried thanking her, I don't think she would truly understand how thankful I am. She is, once again, the best teacher I have ever had.
