starsA new processor leads to less noise at higher ISOs and faster performance, and built-in...
Editors' note, December 20, 2012: The NEX-7 was awarded an Editors' Choice in February 2012, but the more recent NEX-6 has surpassed it in most ways, and at a lower price. Thus we've decided to revoke the award for the NEX-7 -- which still remains an excellent camera -- and pass the torch to the NEX-6.
It may not be the ne plus ultra of interchangeable-lens cameras, but Sony's Alpha NEX-7 comes closer than almost any I've seen thus far. For this class of camera, the NEX-7 has almost everything: built-in flash, an OLED EVF, a large sensor, a tilting LCD, and relatively serious video features. Its innovative two-dial system takes the predominantly screen-based NEX operation and moves a chunk of it back to the hardware controls, where enthusiasts want it. It's got excellent photo and solid video quality and generally fast performance. And while the price is high for a nonpro model, given the package it doesn't seem ripoff-high.
As with many competing cameras the NEX-7's JPEG image processing could stand some optimization, but overall it delivers the photos you'd expect for the money, especially when coupled with a really nice lens like the Zeiss 24mm f1.8. (I tested with that, the 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 kit lens, and the consumer 50mm f1.8 OSS lenses.) The higher resolution of the NEX-7's sensor helps to compensate for the overprocessing, as the extra pixels help retain detail in the face of heavy luminance noise reduction (NR); that's one reason the NEX-7's JPEG photos still look much better than, say, the Olympus E-P3's. The irony is that the NEX-7's images have particularly well-controlled noise without any NR.
If you scrutinize the JPEGs, you can see some haloing on edges between dark and light (on text, for example) starting as low as ISO 400, and details become visibly mushier at ISO 800. The raw files, however, can look really good as high as ISO 1600, subject matter permitting, and remain quite usable as high as ISO 3200. Low-ISO-sensitivity shots look very good, natural with no oversharpening or artifacts.
On all other counts--exposure, color, sharpness, and so on--the photos look quite good. There's plenty of recoverable detail in dense shadow areas, but it doesn't seem like there's a lot in the highlights. Sony offers a variety of Creative Styles for color handling; the default Standard pushes saturation and shifts hues more than I like and Neutral looks a little too flat, but neither is too egregious and since you can adjust the contrast, saturation, and sharpness for each, they're definitely workable.
The video looks very good in decent light as well, sufficiently sharp with solid tonality and exposure, though cinemaphiles will probably take issue with the moiré and aliasing. I didn't see any rolling shutter, however, and casual shooters should find the low-light video quality acceptable.
While it's not superfast all around, the NEX-7 delivers good-to-excellent shooting speed overall. Under optimal conditions, it has class-leading shot lag, focusing and shooting in a mere 0.2 second. In low light that increases to a still-excellent 0.5 second. JPEG shot-to-shot time clocks in at a respectable 0.6 second, but that jumps to about 0.9 second for both raw and flash--meh for raw, good for flash. The camera bursts at about 3.5 frames per second with full autoexposure (odd, since it's rated at only 3fps). That's adequate for kids-and-pets-type action that doesn't involve sports, but more importantly, the EVF refreshes quickly enough to make burst shooting and panning comfortable. The autofocus adjusts quickly and quietly when shooting video.
In practice, I found the camera fluid to shoot with but with some mildly annoying performance lags. For instance, if you shoot with autoreview, as I frequently do, it takes a little longer than desirable to render the shot. There's a slight delay when autoswitching between the LCD and viewfinder. I hate the way Sony insists on initializing a database when you insert a card that hasn't been used in the camera before; I plan to format it anyway, and that always hangs me up. While this won't affect a lot of people, it will if you shoot with multiple cameras. I'm also disappointed with the low-light focusing system. If you enable the AF assist the camera automatically expands the AF area to almost the entire scene; that speeds up focus but it usually results in focusing on the wrong thing. If you disable AF assist, it hunts annoyingly before it finally locks focus.

Veibeskrivelser til OH Casa Sintra
kart og veibeskrivelser
Sintra has really good connections from Lisbon. There are cheap trains leaving every 20 minutes from Rossio Train Station. If you have your own car, it will take you 40 minutes to get from Lisbon, but roads t get busy during peak hours, summer season or public Holidays so it can take a bit longer.
If you come by train, to find OH Casa will be very easy. Exit the 'Sintra' Train Station and turn right on Av Dr. Miguel Bombarda. When you get to a curve about 100m from the Station turn right onto R. Dom Francisco de Almeida. Follow R. Dom Francisco de Almeida until you reach rua Gago Countinho. The big beautiful Green house you see on your right is us. Come on in.
If you come by car, remember we have a Free Parking.
By car from lisbon airport to oh casa sintra
Drive out the airport and get onto the IC 19. Drive all the way to
Sintra which is about 25km away. Stay on the IC 19 until it becomes
the N249 (Rua Elias Garcia). At the round about (you will see a big BP
gas station), take the first exit. At the next roundabout, also take
the first exit (Largo Ch�o de Meninos), follow it for about 1,2 km.
Continue onto R. Dom Francisco de Almeida (you will pass by a small BP
gas station) until Rua Gago Coutinho appears on your left. We are the
green house (No 2), just park in front of the gate where we will be
there to open it for you. Welcome.'

SBW Chook?

He return to NRL appears to depend on him honouring a handshake he made.
Talk about being damned by faint praise. One of SBW's friends has given Trent Robinson the impression that SBW is "quite a good person."
Seeing the name SBW and the word 'circus' in the same sentence is a bit of a concern.

The plus side for rugby league is he's a top drawer player, crowds will be up when he's playing, there'll be greater media interest in the games, especially against the Bulldogs, and if you're still bitter take heart from the fact that any fellow NRL pro's who arent happy with what he's done will be looking to batter him up and down the park for the whole season, which should make for great entertainment for the rest of us
Posted 14 November 2012 - 04:58 PM
As for the media interest, again that's a fair point as from what I can tell the NRL are using him in some pre-season publicity shoots. However it's easy to see why he will have a mountain to climb to reclaim any sort of respect, even of the grudging kind, for many fans. Maybe the NRL in using him in publicity think that all publicity is good publicity.

NRL says SBW situation very different to that of Izzy Folau.
According to well-placed sources, the delay came because the NRL wanted to include Williams's boxing prize money in the club's salary cap.
The NRL says it has considered this but has chosen not to include Williams's boxing earnings in the Roosters' salary cap.
Common sense was the winner on the day. Williams, 27, is expected at Roosters training in early February.
Full story here
Common sense? Not sure about that, more like commercial sense or a reaction to losing Folau.
Posted 21 December 2012 - 12:34 PM
The wait is finally over for Sonny Bill Williams, with the ARLC informing the Sydney Roosters that the code-hopping superstar's 2013 playing contract has been registered.
After signing a one year deal with the Roosters on November 13, it's been a drawn out process for salary cap auditor Ian Schubert to approve the deal.
Posted 27 December 2012 - 03:00 AM
Posted 03 January 2013 - 01:16 PM
So $BW isn't a big head after all.With NRL salary cap auditor Ian Schubert taking almost a month to register the contract of Sonny Bill Williams, the Roosters were unable to include their prized signing in pre-Christmas membership campaigns.
The only evidence of his imminent arrival is a small head shot on a banner that runs along the top of the club's official homepage.

The appointment of deacons. (1-7) Stephen falsely accused of blasphemy. (8-15)
Verses 1-7 Hitherto the disciples had been of one accord; this often had been noticed to their honour; but now they were multiplied, they began to murmur. The word of God was enough to take up all the thoughts, cares, and time of the apostles. The persons chosen to serve tables must be duly qualified. They must be filled with gifts and graces of the Holy Ghost, necessary to rightly managing this trust; men of truth, and hating covetousness. All who are employed in the service of the church, ought to be commended to the Divine grace by the prayers of the church. They blessed them in the name of the Lord. The word and grace of God are greatly magnified, when those are wrought upon by it, who were least likely.
Verses 8-15 When they could not answer Stephen's arguments as a disputant, they prosecuted him as a criminal, and brought false witnesses against him. And it is next to a miracle of providence, that no greater number of religious persons have been murdered in the world, by the way of perjury and pretence of law, when so many thousands hate them, who make no conscience of false oaths. Wisdom and holiness make a man's face to shine, yet will not secure men from being treated badly. What shall we say of man, a rational being, yet attempting to uphold a religious system by false witness and murder! And this has been done in numberless instances. But the blame rests not so much upon the understanding, as upon the heart of a fallen creature, which is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. Yet the servant of the Lord, possessing a clear conscience, cheerful hope, and Divine consolations, may smile in the midst of danger and death.
Acts 6:1-7 . FIRST ELECTION OF DEACONS.
1. the Grecians--the Greek-speaking Jews, mostly born in the provinces.
the Hebrews--those Jews born in Palestine who used their native tongue, and were wont to look down on the "Grecians" as an inferior class.
were neglected--"overlooked" by those whom the apostles employed, and who were probably of the Hebrew class, as being the most numerous. The complaint was in all likelihood well founded, though we cannot suspect the distributors of intentional partiality. "It was really just an emulation of love, each party wishing to have their own poor taken care of in the best manner" [OLSHAUSEN].
the daily ministration--the daily distribution of alms or of food, probably the latter.
2-4. the multitude--the general body of the disciples.
It is not reason--The word expresses dislike; that is "We cannot submit."
to leave the word of God--to have our time and attention withdrawn from preaching; which, it thus appears, they regarded as their primary duty.
to serve tables--oversee the distribution of provisions.
3. look ye out among you--that is, ye, "the multitude," from among yourselves.
seven men of honest report--good reputation ( Acts 10:22 , 1 Timothy 3:7 ).
full of the Holy Ghost--not full of miraculous gifts, which would have been no qualification for the duties required, but spiritually gifted (although on two of them miraculous power did rest).
and wisdom--discretion, aptitude for practical business.
whom we may appoint--for while the election was vested in the Christian people, the appointment lay with the apostles, as spiritual rulers.
4. we will give ourselves to prayer--public prayer, as along with preaching their great work.
5. Stephen, &c.--As this and the following names are all Greek, it is likely they were all of the "Grecian" class, which would effectually restore mutual confidence.
6. when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them--the one proclaiming that all official gifts flowed from the Church's glorified Head, the other symbolizing the communication of these to the chosen office-bearers through the recognized channels.
7. word of God increased . . . disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly--prosperity crowning the beautiful spirit which reigned in this mother community.
a great company of the priests were obedient, &c.--This was the crowning triumph of the Gospel, whose peaceful prosperity was now at its greatest height. After Stephen's teaching and trial made it clear that sacerdotal interests could not stand with the Gospel, such priestly accessions became rare indeed. Note (1) how easily misunderstandings may arise among the most loving and devoted followers of the Lord Jesus: but (2) How quickly and effectually such misunderstandings may be healed, where honest intentions, love, and wisdom reign: (3) What a beautiful model for imitation is furnished by the class here complained of, who, though themselves the majority, chose the new office-bearers from amongst the complaining minority! (4) How superior to the lust of power do the apostles here show themselves to be, in not only divesting themselves of the immediate superintendence of temporal affairs in the Christian community, but giving the choice of those who were to be entrusted with it to the disciples at large! (5) How little of formal organization did the apostles give to the Church at first, and when an emergency arose which demanded something more, how entirely was the remedy suggested by the reason of the thing! (6) Though the new office-bearers are not expressly called Deacons here, it is universally admitted that this was the first institution of that order in the Church; the success of the expedient securing its permanency, and the qualifications for "the office of a Deacon" being laid down in one of the apostolical Epistles immediately after those of "a Bishop" ( 1 Timothy 3:8-13 ).
Acts 6:8-15 . STEPHEN ARRAIGNED BEFORE THE SAMHEDRIM.
8. And Stephen, &c.--The foregoing narrative seems to be only an introduction to what follows.
full of faith--rather, "of grace," as the best manuscripts read.
9, 10. synagogue of the Libertines--Jewish freedmen; manumitted Roman captives, or the children of such, expelled from Rome (as appears from JOSEPHUS and TACITUS), and now residing at Jerusalem.
Cyrenians--Jews of Cyrene, in Libya, on the coast of Africa.
them of Cilicia--amongst whom may have been Saul of Tarsus ( Acts 7:58 , 21:39 ).
and of Asia--(See on Ac 16:6 ).
10. not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake--What he said, and the power with which he spake it, were alike resistless.
11-14. blasphemous words against Moses--doubtless referring to the impending disappearance of the whole Mosaic system.
and against God--This must refer to the supreme dignity and authority which he claimed for Christ, as the head of that new economy which was so speedily to supersede the old (compare Acts 7:56 Acts 7:59 Acts 7:60 ).
15. as . . . the face of an angel--a play of supernatural radiance attesting to all who beheld his countenance the divine calm of the spirit within.

Sabrina Sideris, program director of CU-Boulder's INVST Community Studies, takes great pride in working with CU students to help them learn to become engaged citizens and leaders. In fact, she was once one of those students. Sideris became interested in civic engagement and leadership development when she was a CU-Boulder undergraduate (1996-2000).
"One of my professors let me know about the INVST program when I was a student, and it seemed like a good fit for me, so I applied to the program," Sideris said. "My two years in INVST were the most meaningful years for me at CU, it really made a difference in my education."
After Sideris graduated from CU-Boulder she took on a part-time job with INVST, before leaving for graduate school and work in Costa Rica and Washington, D.C. In 2007, she returned to CU-Boulder and took over as program director of INVST.
INVST Community Studies offers four innovative programs for students:
- The INVST Community Leadership Program
- Community Studies Electives
- Youth Council for Public Policy
- Public Achievement
Sideris discusses the INVST Community Studies in the following Q & A:
What should students know about INVST Community Studies?
We are a mission-driven organization. Our mission is: we believe in the possibility of a just and sustainable world. We develop community leaders who engage in compassionate action as a lifetime commitment. The INVST Community Leadership Program has more than 300 CU alumni who are all over the world taking action toward that shared commitment.
What kind of skills will I learn in the program?
We offer leadership training that is solution-focused to students who want to be change-makers by bringing local, community-based solutions to social and environmental problems in and outside the U.S. Through two, month-long travel opportunities, students in INVST learn first-hand about the most severe challenges facing humanity and the environment.
What about INVST classes and other opportunities?
We have always offered small class sizes and cohort-based learning experiences to undergraduates, who experience a sense of community in the classroom and develop close relationships with each other and their educators. Students are required to work in six hour per week internships. They also have the opportunity to design and implement their own community service projects, which gives them the chance to build a professional network with like-minded people who are passionate about similar topics and challenges.
What are the requirements?
Our program is very challenging, it's 18 credits and it takes two years and a lot of determination to complete. Rather than shying away from this fact, I like to advertise it. It takes discipline and determination to work for social justice and make the world a better place. A program that prepares you to do so shouldn't be easy -- this is not. INVST is not for everyone at CU, but if you like a challenge, want to learn more about yourself and your own talents, interests and passions, and you want to meet folks who are defining the future, apply.

Culling badgers, building nuclear power stations or a Severn barrage, planting GM crops: we face these difficult decisions. As we try to find a way forward we call in the experts – scientists whose views we think of as impartial and unbiased. Publicly funded scientific research is inevitably influenced by Government priorities and scientific research continually raises questions about the viability of current policy. Meanwhile, funding bodies are increasingly committed to leading and directing research in the sciences, framing its questions and targeting funds at 'key areas'.
Students from KS3, KS4 and KS5 are all working on individual research projects in order to gain bronze and silver CREST awards. Our budding scientists are working on projects as diverse as potato batteries, the red spot of jupiter, genetic engineering, evolution and the tides. We're looking forward to National Science & Engineering Week!
The Centre will host four expert speakers from diverse areas in the philosophy of science. They will each give a 30 minute talk on their specialism: from philosophy of physics and mathematics to the philosophy of cognitive science Professor John Dupré, University of Exeter Dr Eleanor Knox, King's College, London Professor David Papineau, King's College, London Dr Richard Pettigrew, University of Bristol

What is not so well known is the link between fingerprints and footprints. Right Angle Events have launched a new education pack called 'Toes for Turf' comprising at least 4 hours of fun teaching material linked to Key Stage 1-4 Mathematics.
We have designed a fantastic scheme especially for National Science & Engineering Week called "Toes For Turf". The science behind fingerprints is well known. What is not so well known is the science behind footprints or "feet prints". This activity enables students to take, classify and "lift" both fingerprints and foot prints. As the research on footprints is meagre, this scheme will allow students to make some discoveries about the correlation or otherwise between fingerprints and feet prints.

Recommendations to Reduce the Risk of SIDS
To help prevent deaths from soft bedding, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) have revised their recommendations for putting infants down to sleep. Soft bedding may be a major contributor to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, or SIDS -- although the exact cause is still largely unknown.
The CPSC, AAP, and NICHD recommend that infants under 12 months be put to sleep in a crib with no soft bedding of any kind under or on top of the baby. Consider using a sleeper or other sleep clothing as an alternative to blankets with no other covering. If using a blanket, put baby with its feet at the foot of the crib. Tuck a thin blanket around the crib mattress, only as far as the baby's chest.
For years, CPSC has warned parents and caregivers to place infants to sleep on their backs in a crib with a firm, tight-fitting mattress; and never to place infants on top of soft, fluffy bedding because if the baby rolls over, the bedding can become molded around the infant's face. Past studies have shown that as many as one-third of the babies who died from SIDS were placed on top of soft bedding, such as pillows, comforters, or sheepskins. While deaths from SIDS have dropped dramatically in recent years after the
Back-to-Sleep Campaign, as many as 900 infant deaths each year are still associated with soft bedding.
New information shows that babies are also at increased risk for SIDS if they get their heads covered by soft bedding even while they sleep on their backs.
The CPSC, the AAP, and the NICHD have released the following revised recommendations to reduce the risk of death associated with soft bedding:
- Place baby on his/her back on a firm, tight-fitting mattress, in a crib that meets current safety standards.
- Remove pillows, quilts, comforters, sheepskins, stuffed toys, and other soft products from the crib.
- Consider using a sleeper as an alternative to blankets, with no other covering.
- If using a blanket, place baby with its feet at the foot of the crib. Tuck a thin blanket around the crib mattress, reaching only as far as the baby's chest.
- Make sure your baby's head remains uncovered during sleep.
- Do not place your baby on a waterbed, sofa, soft mattress, pillow, or other soft surface to sleep.

DIY Spiderlight Strobe!
So since I am pretty good at building things (i am a self-employed woodworker) I decided to build my own version of a Spiderlight:
The total cost, for all the materials AND the bulbs is about 120$. That's about 350$ savings! Not bad.
So here's how I did it:
I started with some pieces of half inch MDF I had lying around. I glued 3 layers together to get about 1-1/2" of total thickness. The dimensions are 6-1/2" x 6-1/2". I then I took my 1-1/2" Forstner bit and drilled 5 holes. One in the center and 4 at the corners.
I bought 5 of these rubber bulb sockets. They're fairly inexpensive, running at $2.50 each.
The 1-1/2" holes makes for a perfect, snug fit for these rubber sockets.
The next step is to add some aluminum foil to the bulb side. To get a more diffused effect I wrinkled the foil and then flattened it with an iron. I used spray adhesive to glue the foil to the MDF. I then removed any excess foil around the perimeter.
Here's what it looks like with all 5 sockets installed.
Viewed from the back.
A generous amount of construction adhesive to hold everything in place.
Now the fun part: electrical wiring! I bought this simple little wire switch to turn the whole thing on or off. Don't ask me what gauge the wire is, I just picked up the one that seemed the right choice. It has 3 wires inside. White, black, and green for grounding.
I bought a 4x4 metal box (normally used for laundry dryers) along with the cover plate. I also bought a 2 position "toggle switch" (seen here attached to the cover plate) that will allow me to turn off 2 of the 5 lights to get a little less illumination should the need presents itself. I drilled holes in the inside corners of the metal box to get the socket wires through. Then I screwed the box to the MDF. For liability issues I will not tell you how to wire this. Please note that I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITIES IF PROBLEMS/FIRES/INJURIES RESULT FROM THE USE OF THIS TUTORIAL.
Here you can see the cover plate attached and the toggle switch in place.
The finished product! Seen here with the wire, switch and wall plug.
The fluorescent bulbs are Phillips Marathon, 27Watt. The color temperature is 5000K, which is the closest to the full-spectrum sunlight I could find at the hardware store (I bought these in a Home Depot in canada). They came in pack of two for around 13$.
***** UPDATE May 1st 2008 *****
If you think that those 5 27W bulbs might not be powerful enough for you, you can replace the 27w's with 4 85W, 5000K General Brand bulbs (available at B&H). That would throw some SERIOUS light!
Taken with the exact same camera settings (except F3.2 instead of 2.7.. .go figure) as the previous shot. All 5 bulbs turned on. Yep, its bright.
Taken at 1/1600 sec. at F3.5.
Same settings, with two of the bulbs turned off using the toggle switch on the back.
Final Product.
Well I can say I am pretty happy with the results. The whole thing weights about two and a half pounds, making it light enought to put on any lightstand.
Come back later this week, as I will post another how-to article on building my 3'x4' softbox to go with the fixture. That one shouldn't cost more than 25$ if everything goes as planned.
The other thing i'll need to do is add some soft of attachment to fit on a lightstand swivel bracket. I might buy the one from Westcott. I will also buy my first lightstand later on.
Hope you liked the tutorial!

Very nice and well done. May I suggest a dimmer switch instead of the toggle switch to turn off the 2 bulbs. A dimmer would allow you to vary the intensity of the light output.
- Wednesday, April 23, 2008 2:43:00 PM
- Alex Campagna said...
You have to have special bulbs for dimmer switches. Unfortunately, the bulbs I bought are compatible with a dimmer....
- Thursday, April 24, 2008 7:30:00 PM
- Alex Campagna said...
typo... I mean the bulbs I bought ARE NOT compatible with a dimmer...
- Thursday, April 24, 2008 7:31:00 PM
Nice. You could easily make it more variable with a couple more switches on the back. With one wired to the center light, one to two corner lights and one to the other two corner lights you could turn on 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 lights.
- Tuesday, April 29, 2008 12:31:00 PM
- Alex Campagna said...
Yes I am considering that too. But with those 27W, I think one bulb only would be useless. They just aren't enough powerful. If I have some more money i will buy 4 of these 85W 5000K General Brand bulbs at B&H... (since they are bigger only 4 would fit on the fixture... one at each corner). A couple more switches on the back and I could control 1, 2 ,3 or 4 lights....

Great job Alex. Thanks for sharing your hard work.

- Sean "Madman" Sullivan said...
Great job..another summer project for me. :) BTW, I would have wired it slight different. Instead of having center and two on on side light up, I would have done it diag and had center and opposite corners light up to keep the light spread centered in the box.
- Thursday, May 01, 2008 1:27:00 PM
- Terry Smith Images said...
Great job! I'm going to make one or two of these myself now. I almost bought a couple of the "real" Spiderlights a few weeks ago, and now I'm glad I didn't!
By the way, you should very tightly wrap the the electrical connectors and wires with black electrician's tape. This is very important so that they don't fall off and zap the metal wiring box or YOU when you touch it! - Thursday, May 01, 2008 5:35:00 PM
Instead of adding more switches to control which lights are activated, why not just slightly unscrew a particular bulb if you do not want it to be lit? A very easy method that will allow you to have any combination of lights without the need to add bulk and complicate the wiring.
- Wednesday, May 14, 2008 9:35:00 AM
- Alexandre Campagna said...
I agree, but if you have a diffuser panel in front, that means opening the panel, unscrewing the bulb and closing the diffuser panel.
Even if those are CFL's, they do get a little hot to touch bare-hand.
For the price of the toggle switch (about 6$) and a couple of minutes of wiring, I don't see why I wouldn't do it again this way...
Think about it, the time you would spend for wiring, you will save it later when you use the toggle switch.... - Wednesday, May 14, 2008 9:50:00 AM
Just FYI - Whenever you use a dimmer switch you alter the color temperature of the light. That could get you in a real pickle if you are using multiple light sources. That's the reason wescott uses switches to turn off individual blubs.
- Sunday, May 18, 2008 10:17:00 AM
- Alexandre Campagna said...
It is not a dimmer switch, it is a toggle (on/off) switch. It turns off two of the 5 bulbs. Same principle as Westcott.
cheers - Sunday, May 18, 2008 11:03:00 AM
- Nosh said...
Sounds like an excellent project! Thanks for sharing your ideas
- Monday, June 02, 2008 8:17:00 PM
I just built two of these myself. I added an extra switch so I could select between one, three, or five on at a time. Fantastic write up! Thank you for putting this up here, you inspired me. I'm not a pro wood-worker but it wasn't too bad to build. There is a bunch I want to change and maybe I'll make a Ver. 2 with the improvements to these. Click the URLs for some pics. Now it's off to build some boxes for them!

That's an awesome project, I will surely try this one out. But while I'm at it, I'm thinking about attaching some switches with a wireless connection, so that one can turn of two of the bulbs with a remote control. That would be cool.
- Tuesday, June 24, 2008 7:35:00 AM
I am wondering since these are not strobes how would I set the apertures for these? if it's continuous light?
I am very new to lighting so please take it easy on me :) - Tuesday, June 24, 2008 9:34:00 AM
I just made this over the weekend and it's awesome. Thank you so much for the instructions. I'm not usually very handy with wood, so my only problem was deciding where the place the holes for the sockets. I also made a few modifications. I added the power switch to the junction box so all the control is in one place. I also ended up using an old extension cord for power. It was free and I could make it as long as i wanted.
Thanks! - Monday, July 07, 2008 6:59:00 PM
- Chris Verges said...
We just built four of these; great step-by-step plans! To help with the drilling of the socket holes, we created a template that I wanted to share. The outside dimensions are 6.5" x 6.5".

Here is my version of the spider light. I now have 4 - 200w bulbs in it, for a total of 800 watts.
The holes on the side are for rods from a softbox to attach.
Here it is set up.

- Thursday, December 18, 2008 11:44:00 AM
This is a great project!! I saw some 3-way (50/75/150 watts) CFLs daylight balanced bulbs at Lowes & wonder if anyone has considered these types of bulbs?
- Wednesday, December 31, 2008 7:02:00 PM
A couple of notes from an "electrically inclined guy". 5 of the 27 watt bulbs at 110 volts means a load of 135 watts. Residential wiring requires 14 gauge wiring for a 15 amp circuit. This is what most residential outlets are wired for (kitchens and garages are usually 20 amp). We are working with 110 volts here, so that means that we can safely handle 1100 watts from an electrical load perspective if all parts are rated for a 10 amp load. Make sure your switchs, sockets, and wiring are rated for a 10 amp load at 110 volts. Wiring should be 14 gauge (lower number gauge can support bigger load). When running wires through a metal electrical box, make sure to use grommets, so the wiring doesn't chafe and short out. Also ensure that the ground wire is screwed to the metal box in case of a short. Pick up a 3 wire cord with plug that includes a ground. They do make dimmers for flourescent bulbs, but they are expensive and may cause flickering.
- Wednesday, January 21, 2009 2:56:00 PM
there are lots of stronger bulb options, much more than that 85w one you posted.
i bought some high powered cfls in the past and some of them are really quite large
a quick search brought this up, 150w 5000k

I did a little more digging, and here's a 105w CFL 5k, 3.15", about the same price as b&h, i think if you go to higher watts they're too expensive and too wide.

I started building this but had to abandon it in the middle.
I am selling the already built lightbox with wires and plug attached, along with the corrugated plastic.
All you need to do so is shape the plastic and put it on.
See my craigslist listing

My research shows that Coroplast is available in 2,3,4 and 6 mm thicknesses. Would using a thinner-dimension material better facilitate bending it to the proper form? The most common dimension appears to be about 1/4" thick, but it is also available in 1/8 and 3/16" thicknesses. An "uncut" (no added slits) piece of thinner Coroplast might bend easier plus retain sufficient strength at a lesser weight. What thickness of Coroplast did you use?
- Wednesday, June 24, 2009 4:21:00 PM
- Alexandre Campagna said...
I used 1/8" thick black corrugaded coroplast...
I'm sure a thickness of 2mm would bend easily! - Wednesday, June 24, 2009 8:09:00 PM

Nice job. I wanted to post to let you know that you inspired me to build my own light project. You can see it here if you are interested. http://brucegarner.com/?p=25 Thanks again for sharing your experience.
- Sunday, August 23, 2009 11:25:00 PM
I made my light, but when I turned it on the lights have diminished power. My wiring setup is just putting all of the lights in series. Would placing them in parallel help to distribute power more evenly?
- Sunday, February 07, 2010 7:48:00 PM
- Bruce said...
yes, they much be parallel.
- Sunday, February 07, 2010 8:53:00 PM
Thanks for the inspiration. I've done a similar one with two warm white CFLs and three white CFLs.
-Jec - Thursday, March 25, 2010 8:38:00 PM
Thanks for the inspiration. I think I will use a screw-in pull chain switch on each socket to vary the brightness.

- Yucel said...
Hi Alex,
You still using this get up?
And, how you know how many watts your rig can handle?
Thanks, - Wednesday, April 25, 2012 5:18:00 PM
- Lauren Smith said...
With all due respect to this great write-up, I don't understand how you made this cost $120. The light sockets are about $2 at Home Depot, you already had the wood and I am assuming you already had the adhesives... throw in $10 for wire nuts and misc., $6 for the metal box, and $10 for an extension cord (that you probably had lying around anyway) and we're still under $40. What am I missing? Can you provide a cost breakdown?
I am planning on building something similar within a few days for some home-studio portrait work. I really appreciate the inspiration and am looking forward to building something functional and cheap. - Thursday, November 15, 2012 6:06:00 PM

Sitting directly on the Las Vegas strip, Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino stands in the midst of all the exciting action in Sin City. Thanks to its prime location, this entertainment venue draws dozens of premier musicians to its stage annually. Be a part of the audience on February 14 to see Britney Spears perform live.
Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Seating Information
As you browse the Planet Hollywood Las Vegas seating chart for Britney Spears, keep in mind certain artists may have different stage configurations for different concerts. This multi-purpose venue has transformed into several different stage and seating arrangements in the past, so be sure to take careful note of the map included on this page.
Normally, the section closest to the stage is called the Gold Circle, and may contain either general admission or reserved seating. Next is the 100 level, with options from 101-105. On occasion, an artist may include private boxes in the front half of the 100 level instead of orchestra-style seating. In the event these boxes are available, the information will be notated on the map.
Next is the 200 level, with sections 201-209. The final level is the balcony, which may not be made available for all concert events. If open, these sections are listed from 301-313.
Planet Hollywood Las Vegas General Information
Age restrictions vary from concert to concert, so it is best to check with the venue in advance regarding any guidelines for Britney Spears. Typically, outside food and drink, large bags, and all signs and banners are prohibited from the theater.
Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Parking Information
Most self-parking at the venue is complimentary, but there are typically options for valet parking as well for an extra fee.
Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Gate Times
For most concerts, doors open one hour to 90 minutes before the show begins.
Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Accessibility
Planet Hollywood Las Vegas offers a range of accessible seating options, which are best coordinated directly with the box office. There may also be other amenities, like assisted listening devices, available for rent on the day of the show. Be sure to check with the box office staff in advance of the February 14 concert for more information.

The best jeans ever!!!
This is my first review EVER!! I figured If I can help someone why not...
I loved the jeans!! They're super soft , stretchy and comfy... I ordered them in my usual size 31, its never a miss but, because I'm in between sizes 10/12, the material is so stretchy that they started to feel loose from the start, I knew once I walked and had them on longer I'd be lifting up them every 5 minutes!!!! So I returned them and bought the size 30..... Along with 3 more jeans lol!!
May 9, 2013

A word about Brewers fans
Fans April 20th, 2009
Bugs and Cranks with a piece about how both Cubs and Brewers fans are douches, but on Opening Day 2009 the Brewers fans were the bigger douches. Normally, I would come to the defense of such an article but at this time I agree completely. Most of the "Brewers fans" I saw on Opening Day weren't Brewers fans at all. They were fans of being drunk and obnoxious more than anything. I can honestly say that there were more Brewers fans to annoy me on Opening Day than Cubs fans. Now, for once in my life there was actually more Brewers fans there than Cubs fans but the point stands. Below are some of the complaints that Cubs fans have issued and my responses to them.
- Relentless verbal attacks (colorful language) on both young and elderly fans.
Not sure how I feel about this one. I am not the biggest fan of swearing in general, especially around kids, but Cubs fans are THE WORST at this so I don't really care to hear it.
- Gesturing and taunting of pre-teen female Cubs fans to perform sexual acts.
Come on.
- Throwing items.
Definitely not a fan of this. If someone's throwing stuff have them thrown out. It's not that difficult, in fact it's kind of fun.
- Pouring beer on fans/down their shirts.
This is just wrong. Who would waste beer? They cost $6.75!
- Tampering with vehicles.
Not cool.
- Dumping charcoal ashes in front of Illinois plated cars.
Not cool.
- Pieces of broken beer bottles placed under cars and tires.
Seriously, how old are you? That doesn't even work.
- One fan reported being intentionally cutoff in their vehicle.
Really? Someone from Illinois is going to complain about driving? Really?
Here's the thing, Cubs fans are going to act like douches. There is no denying it, it's just a fact of life. You don't really have to do anything to entice them into douchery, it just comes naturally. Here's a great example, on Saturday my friends and are I were in our seats when in front of us this drunk lady looking like she just stepped off the set of a Larry the Cable Guy movie started screaming at these Cubs fans sitting next to us about how bad these guys sucked. Now, the whole game these Cubs fans were quiet and polite never stepping into the idiocy we tend to associated with Cubs fans. My friend decides to tell this lady to shut up because A) it's annoying and B) she believes that as Brewers fans we shouldn't stoop to doing stuff like that (ie like Cubs fans do). An argument insued and this lady ended up losing rather badly, but basically she came to the defense of these Cubs fans. So what happens? Soriano hits a home run in the ninth and they IMMEDIATELY turn into douchebags. This wasn't like someone turning into a zombie after a bite, this was like the moon rose and they were instantly transformed, like were-douches. Did this cause us to regret it? No, it didn't. The fact still remains is that we don't do stuff like that in Milwaukee because we aren't the dumb ones.
And you know what? Despite all these complaints listed above (and I am sure there are many more) I still saw more Cubs fans thrown out of Miller Park last weekend than Brewers fans. The Cubs fans may outnumber us and at times they may even be louder than us, but we should accept that as long as they don't out-douche us. Forget taking back Miller Park, we need to give back the douche. I'd rather be outnumbered, out yelled, out drunken and everything else than an asshole.
Have you entered our contest for two free Brewers tickets yet? All you have to do is become a fan on facebook, not that hard.

Recently Daniel F. Whalen was elected as president of Cleveland State Bank/Cleveland State Bancorp, Inc., succeeding R. Calvin Dye, who will remain CEO.
"Calvin is planning his retirement," said Whalen. Dye has been with Cleveland State bank since 1989.
Whalen said as president he would manage the day-to-day operations of the bank while Dye will take on an oversight roll.
"This is a transitioning phase for us," said Whalen, who emphasized that banking operations are not changing and that customer service and community service will remain top priorities.
"We're a community bank; we're not a bank with 20 locations," said Whalen. "The concerns of the community are our concerns and we know its needs."
As a community bank, Whalen said banking regulatory expectations can be demanding and challenging but the bottom line will always be the customer and the community in which they live.
"It's important to give back," he said.
Whalen said he is "very humbled and appreciative of the opportunity the board" has given him in leading Cleveland State Bank and is welcoming of the "learning experience."
Whalen said the employees of Cleveland State Bank are outstanding people and everyone operates on a "team concept."
"You never ask anyone to do what you haven't done or aren't willing to do yourself."
Whalen is a graduate of Mississippi State University where he earned a bachelor of business administration in 1985.
He is also a graduate of the Mississippi School of Banking at the University of Mississippi and the Graduate School of Banking at Louisiana State University.
Whalen brings 26 years of banking experience to his new position.
He joined the lending staff of the Cleveland State Bank in 1995 and has served since 1998 as senior vice president.
Whalen joined the board of directors in 2005.
A native of Coldwater, Whalen is married to the former Tammy Edmonds of Ackerman. The couple has three children, Adam, 24, Andrew, 21, and Ben, 12; the Whalens are members of the First Baptist Church of Cleveland.
Whalen is an active member of the Cleveland-Bolivar County Chamber of Commerce and the Cleveland Rotary Club, where he has served as president and received recognition as a Paul Harris Fellow.
Whalen serves as treasurer of the United Way of Cleveland-Bolivar County, and he also serves as chair of the Presbyterian Day School Board of Trustees.
The election of Whalen marks the board's continued commitment to the bank and to the community.
Building on a legacy of stability and dedicated leadership, Whalen will be only the sixth president to serve the bank since its incorporation in February 1908.
The CSB Board of Directors includes: H L. Sledge Jr., Chairman, Joseph G. Crews, R. Calvin Dye, William M. Griffith Jr., John R. Howarth, Mark E. Koonce, George A. Steen, and Daniel F. Whalen.

Ginestri, a senior hailing from Cremona, Italy, a town near Milan, is just about seven months into her 12-month study abroad program which is put on by the Rotary club.
"It's really different from my home country, the school, the lifestyles, but I really like it," Ginestri said.
Prior to arriving in the United States, Ginestri had some rather colorful ideas about how life would be in Cleveland.
"My first impression of Cleveland was completely different from what I was expecting. Before I came here the only image that I could picture in my mind about the U.S. was of wild, big cities with high buildings, crazy taxi drivers running everywhere, and a never-stopping life, kind of New York style. When my airplane arrived in Atlanta I thought that I was pretty right thinking all that, but once in Cleveland a small, modest town was expecting me," Ginestri explained.
The smaller town atmosphere was a welcome surprise to Ginestri, the area feeling slightly reminiscent of home.
"My first thought was 'Well, that's not exactly what I was thinking, but at least it will be a little bit like home.' Now I can say that I couldn't have ever asked for something better."
During her year long stay, Ginestri will have lived with three different host families.
"Not only is she in a new country, but she experiences three different families," Lady Raider head coach Mindy Kiser explained.
Ginestri is currently with her second of three families, and thus far has really enjoyed the host families.
"I've met a lot of good people and my families take really good care of me. They love me like I'm a real daughter for them," Ginestri said.
Strong connections have been made, and Ginestri feels those she has met in Cleveland will always hold a special place in her life.
"I just fell in love with this place. Yes, there's not always something different to do and discover, but in this little town I had the opportunity to meet some people that will always have a special place in my heart for the rest of my life — my host families and friends. This is what I will miss the most when I go back to Italy."
The young Italian, who comes from a family with a history involved with the sport, has always had a love of basketball.
"I've played basketball since I was 9. It's always been my passion; my mom used to play when she was a teenager," explained Ginestri.
It was her first host family who contacted coach Kiser about Ginestri's interest in basketball.
"Anna has been a joy to have and to be around. School had started and I got an email that said 'Hey we're hosting a young lady that's interested in basketball' and I told them to send her by," Kiser stated. "She's been a great addition to our program. It's forced some of our players to get outside of their comfort zone and get to know not only somebody new, but somebody from a totally different country…it really broadened our horizons a little bit."
Despite her previous experience playing basketball, Ginestri had to learn and adapt to the North American style of play during her time with the Lady Raiders (18-10).
"Every single time, I tell coach Kiser that a lot of things are different. Also some rules are different, they are used to playing a certain way altogether, and I'm used to playing another way," admits Ginestri. "During the free throws you can have four offensive people waiting for the rebound. In Italy you can have only three. Our quarters are 10 minutes and we have only 24 seconds to shoot."
There wasn't just a differences in rules Ginestri had to learn, but also a major difference in mindset and attitude on the court.
"A big difference is that here the girls are really competitive and they really fight for what they want. They want to be there and always want to be in the game. That's a really good thing," Ginestri said of her team's competitive mentality. "In Italy, we don't have so much competitive things. The passion here is a really good thing. I'm not saying that my teammates in Italy don't have passion for what they do, but here basketball can really be your life."
Ginestri was a quick learner, and according to Kiser did a great job and really stepped in and competed for playing time.
"As far as basketball goes, she is an extremely hard worker and a talented player. She's very quick and defensive-minded … I can always count on Anna being on the defensive end," Kiser said.
Being a young girl in a foreign country and speaking a foreign language can be challenging, but by being on the basketball team Ginestri is at least able to participate in something familiar.
"It's like you start, really, a new life. You meet people that you don't know and they have their own life, their own friends, and their own real family. …In Italy I was kind of a shy person, but I knew that coming here I had to be more outspoken," explained the soft-spoken senior. "Having the opportunity to be on the basketball team is a really a good thing for me while I'm here because they accepted me really openly. So it's a really wonderful thing and I'm really happy that I still have basketball."
In Italy they begin learning English in elementary school, but according to Ginestri, the focus is mainly on vocabulary and not on conversation. Once arriving in the United States she virtually had to start from the beginning with the language, but feels that her English has greatly improved since being here.
"We know that English is the most important language in the world, so I said if I want to learn English well the only thing I have to do is go away and live somewhere. I've improved a lot since I've been here."
Coach Kiser has had previous experience coaching international players, thanks to her time at Lee University and, besides having to slow down a bit when coaching, has rarely had any problems getting the point across to Ginestri.
"I feel like basketball is kind of like the international love language here. Defend and put the basketball in the hole — I think that's two pretty good things to do," Kiser said of coaching her Italian exchange student.
Ginestri's future plans involve a bit more travel to both the East and West coasts of the U.S. prior to her return to Italy. Once she is back home, her focus will be on finishing her fifth year of high school and going on to a college or university to further pursue language studies.
"I already know French and English and a bit of Spanish. I know that they can be really important for work, or maybe if that doesn't work I can try to be a doctor," Ginestri stated.
Once her year abroad has come to a close, Ginestri admits that she will miss Cleveland life and will look forward to returning in the future.
"It will be like leaving a part of my life here. My host parents already made me promise that I will come back, sooner or later, and that's for sure."

Before return flights from Stockholm, visit the cobbled streets of Gamla Stan, Old Town, for a shopping excursion of traditional Swedish handcrafts. Colourful hand-blown glass gleams in shop displays, and thick woollen sweaters with traditional Nordic designs promise to keep away winter's chill.
Sunshine glances off the water and brightens centuries-old inns in Stockholm's Gamla Stan. Tuck into plates of tender, freshly-caught salmon or try smoked eel or reindeer followed by a glass of icy cold, anise-flavoured Aquavit. .
Opera singers perform in 18th-century costumes and powdered wigs at the lavish Drottningholm Court Theatre. Set on an island in Lake Mälaren, a ticket to Stockholm's most famous opera and ballet venue features period theatre sets and musicians with antique instruments.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Stockholm. Plan a city break around the June Midsummer celebration at Skansen, or listen to world-class jazz artists at the Stockholm Jazz Festival in July.
