Bob Fletcher, a former California agriculture inspector who, ignoring the resentment of neighbors, quit his job in the middle of World War II to manage the fruit farms of Japanese families forced to live in internment camps, died on May 23 in Sacramento. He was 101.
His death was confirmed by Doris Taketa, who was 12 when Mr. Fletcher agreed to run her family's farm in 1942, the year she and her extended family were relocated to the Jerome War Relocation Center in Arkansas.
"He saved us," Ms. Taketa said.

He was preceded by his parents, Virgil and Edna Elliott of Cleveland; and brother, Paul Elliott of Florida.
He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend with a warming smile; he was always generous and supportive. In his free time, he enjoyed golf, fishing, travel, and square dancing. He also became a master gardner and was a member of the Masons.
He had a career as an engineer with the Pershing missile and training program (a real rocket scientist). He traveled around the USA and to Germany training the military to use the Pershing. He later moved to Eglin Air Force Base in Florida, where he developed telemetry and did program management for military electronics. During his career, many awards and letters of commendation were received from the Air Force recognizing his outstanding performance and dedication to his work.
He is survived by his wife, Nell; sons: Brent (Ilicena) of El Dorado Hills, Calif., and Dennis (Toni) of Brentwood; grandchildren: Brooke and Erik of California, and Keith (Lauren) and Craig of Tennessee; sister, Joy (Sam) Humbard of Cleveland; brother, Sam (Barbara) of Seffner, Fla.; and nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held at 3 p.m. Friday, March 15, 2013, at Brentwood Baptist Church in Brentwood, with visitation beginning at 1:30 p.m.
Honorary pallbearers will be Byron Wilson, Tony Kimsey, Bob White, and Sam Humbard.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial donation may be made to the American Parkinson's Disease Association, 2191 9th Ave, North, Suite 120-A, St. Petersburg, FL 33713.

If you are already a guest or a member sign in below.
Nearly every Australia has already taken action to reduce their carbon emissions. Whether you are turning off lights or driving less, buying carbon offsets or even installing solar panels. We are all concerned about climate change, and we want to know that our actions count. And that what we are doing is helping to reduce the impacts of climate change.
But under the government's proposed Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS), what you do to reduce carbon emissions won't make a difference at all to Australia's total emissions. In fact, the more emissions you abate through your actions, the more emissions Australia's biggest polluters can pollute.
In 2008, GreenPower provided over 1.8 million megawatt hours per annum to over 877,000 households and 34,000 businesses. Under the government's proposal all 1.8 million MWh generated each year through GreenPower simply won't count as additional to the mandatory target.
Receive FREE email updates of our latest tests, consumer news and CHOICE marketing promotions.
We think that the government's proposed CPRS undermines the actions of Australians motivated to reduce carbon emissions, and prevents you from taking meaningful action on climate change.
An emissions trading scheme can be an important part of Australia's response to climate change, but it cannot be the only response and it must not undermine other action. We all have the right – indeed, we should be encouraged – to act independently to play a part in tackling climate change.
We want the government to ensure that your voluntary actions to reduce carbon emissions are counted as additional to the government-mandated cap.

Four Paws Doggie Doo Bags
I love these bags!
Although I recently got a roll-type dispenser and will probably not buy tie bags any more, these are definitely my favorite and I would recommend them highly to anyone who doesn't mind folded bags.
These bags [mine were blue and nicely scented] are individually folded [each one is slightly larger and thicker than a stick of chewing gum] and then packed into a slim box that is easy to stick anywhere and thick enough for daily handling. The bags themselves remain folded in my pocket until I take them out to use them; they are a generous size [kind of like a newspaper sleeve in its dimensions] and the tie handles are short, but sturdy. Good price for biodegradable bags!

Doggie Doo Bags
I love these bags. A great size, but I love the handles. Very easy to turn inside out once the pooh has been picked up, very easy to tie off and close. Until I discovered Chewy sometimes I couldn't find the Doggie Doo Bags, and that was not good. I would purchase another pooh bag and never liked it. I have been using them for over 10 years. A must have for every responsible dog owner.
June 9, 2014
folded bags easy to put in pocket, open easily, good sz bags for our large dog.
bought on recommendation of purchaser on your site. very happy with ease of opening, sz of bags, and flat fold make ez to carry in pocket or tie on leash.

MBB: Fran McCaffery to Attend 9th Annual Dick Vitale Gala
Cary, NC -- The V Foundation for Cancer Research, one of the nations leading cancer research funding organizations, and ESPN Hall of Fame Sportscaster Dick Vitale are pleased to announce the many sports celebrities scheduled to attend the Ninth Annual Dick Vitale Gala on May 16 in Sarasota, Florida. University of Iowa mens basketball head coach Fran McCaffery, whose 14-year-old son Patrick had a malignant thyroid removed this spring, will be one of many prominent coaches from the 2014 NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament scheduled to attend the event.
Net proceeds from the event will benefit pediatric cancer research through The V Foundation. University of Alabama head football coach Nick Saban, University of Notre Dame head mens basketball coach Mike Brey and Indiana University head mens basketball coach Tom Crean will be honored at the event.
I know Jimmy V would be thrilled that these personalities from the world of sports are donating their time and effort to be with us, said Vitale. We are blessed that they are willing to help make Jimmy Vs dream of battling cancer a reality by utilizing their celebrity status to raise funds for cancer research.
Other basketball coaches slated to attend include championship runner-up coach John Calipari (Kentucky), as well as Elite Eight coaches and brothers Sean Miller (Arizona) and Archie Miller (Dayton). More notable college basketball coaches scheduled to attend include Tom Izzo (Michigan State), Jim Boeheim (Syracuse), Jim Larraaga (Miami), Steve Alford (UCLA), Herb Sendek (Arizona State), Joe Dooley (Florida Gulf Coast), Brian Gregory (Georgia Tech), Anthony Grant (Alabama), Leonard Hamilton (Florida State) and Mark Gottfried (NC State). Hall of Fame high school basketball coach Bob Hurley Sr. and his son, Bob Hurley Jr., former Duke All-American and current Head Coach at the University of Buffalo, will be attending. Other renowned celebrities include Florida States 2014 BCS National Championship winning head coach Jimbo Fisher, a few members of the Nebraskas football coaching staff including head coach Bo Pelini, tennis legend Nick Bollettieri, Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Lovie Smith, Florida States former Heisman Trophy winner Chris Weinke, daredevil and King of the High Wire Nik Wallenda and member of NC States 1983 NCAA Championship team Dereck Whittenburg. Popular national sports personalities confirming attendance include ESPNs Dan Shulman and John Saunders.
The Ninth Annual Dick Vitale Gala will be held on Friday, May 16, 2014, at the Ritz-Carlton in Sarasota, Florida. The evening will begin with a Celebrity Meet & Greet Private Pre-Party and include after-party entertainment featuring the Four Tops, an American vocal quartet.
Last year, the Dick Vitale Gala raised more than $1.7 million for pediatric cancer research, bringing the events total to more than $10 million in its eight-year history. Net proceeds and direct donations from this years Gala will be used to fund cancer research focused on children. Grants are made to leading pediatric cancer research centers around the country, selected under the guidance of The V Foundations Scientific Advisory Committee. This years grants will include $250,000 awarded in memory of Lacey Holsworth and $250,000 awarded in memory of Eddie Livingston. Both children deeply touched the community with their courage and strength. Both awards will remain open for funding until the end of the year so supporters can continue to donate in loving memory of these two brave children.
The V Foundation is incredible grateful to Dick and Lorraine Vitale and the wonderful supporters of the Gala, said Susan Braun, CEO of The V Foundation for Cancer Research. Through their year-long efforts, we are able to fund extraordinary research on childhood cancer and do all we can to beat the disease that takes too many of our beloved children.
A raffle drawing for a 2013 Mercedes-Benz CLA V-edition will occur during the Gala. Tickets for the raffle are offered at a suggested $100 minimum donation. The car includes many special features including custom seating with a light gray base seat, red stitching and gray suede inserts, customized stitched headrests, custom colored wheels, an aluminum badge engraved with Dick Vitales signature and more. Raffle winners do not need to be in attendance at the Gala for the drawing.

(KWES) It was an act of heroism.
A blind Odessa, Texas man was rescued after a fire started in his home, but it wasn't a fire alarm that woke him up.
It was his dog.
Charles Kennedy was sleeping when it began early Saturday morning.
He says if it weren't for the heroic acts of the Odessa Police Department, and of his dog, he probably wouldn't be alive.
"If it went on longer, and if it had gotten worse, I may not be here," Odessa resident, 76-year-old Charles Kennedy, said.
A towel accidentally left on the stove is what caused the fire around 4 a.m. Saturday at Charles Kennedy's home in the 800 block of East 15th Street in Odessa. The former employee of the Medical Examiner's Office doesn't have a smoke alarm and he is legally blind.
What woke him up was his dog, Jack, licking his face. He quickly called 911 and told them he'd be in the closet, away from the smoke. Two Odessa policemen came to his aid minutes later and brought him outside to sit on a bench.
"I fell off of the bench on the ground, then my dog jumped over the fence and he came over and laid down across my legs," Kennedy said.
One-year-old Jack never left Kennedy's side, even as he was put on a stretcher and taken to the hospital. NewsWest 9 asked Kennedy, if Jack could understand every word in the book, what would he say to him?
"I love you Jack. I love my dog," Kennedy said.
How about the policemen? NewsWest 9 asked.
"I got a lot of respect for them. Except for ones that give tickets," Kennedy said.
His sense of humor is still intact. As is his home, which only retained the smell of smoke for a couple of days.
It's a true act of heroism from the boys in blue and man's best friend.

I planted some oriental lily bulbs I bought from Costco in spring 2006. Now two years later this spring I can see in addition to the bigger sprouts, there are may be 10 - 15 smaller sprouts that have come up next to the bigger sprouts.
From what I read on the web, I know I should dig up all the lily bulbs, and take the "scales" off the main bulb, and plant them separately. My questions are: 1. When is the best time to divide? Should I do it right now, or wait till September or October? I live in north of Philadelphia, zone 6. 2. How deep should I plant the baby bulbs based on its size? 3. Does variety matter? I have two types of lilies, one of them I believe is Stargazer (only 2 - 3 ft tall), and the other one has white flowers (3 to 4 ft tall). I can divide in the same way, right? 4. Can I expect the baby lilies to bloom next summer (2009)? Thank you all! |

Although spring division is possible it's best to wait until fall when the foliage has yellowed or ripened. Lily bulbs are usually planted at a depth 2 to 3 times the diameter of the bulb.If it were me , I wouldn't divide yet this year, unless the stems are really crowded. I would give those babies a little more undisturbed growing time. Also, you mentioned scaling of the mother bulbs. There's no need to do so unless you want to try to get lots more babies. When you take scales from the mother bulb you're cutting down on the size and number of flowers it will produce. Scaling is usually used to propagate those varieties of lilies that are slow to reproduce on their own, example, martagons. |
Hi Philly Gardener, Just to clarify, the little lily plants you are seeing come from "bulblets" either offset from the main bulb or from last years stem (lilies may make either to a more or less extent depending upon the type). As Hostaholic has told you, scaling is a method to propagate bulblets from the main "mother" bulb if you want to make a bunch of them. But then, it sounds like you have plenty of "lily babies". If the bulblets you have are "stem bulblets" they would be relatively close to the surface and fairly easy to get out carefully with your fingers if you wanted to place them somewhere else now. If however they are offset from the main bulb digging them up now would disturb your main bulb and probaly damage them so you would want to wait until late summer/early fall in that case. -Helen |

Thank you for all your help! I already have the baby lilies, today I counted maybe 20 of them, some are 3-4 inches tall, some just 1-2 inches tall. The mother lilies (planted in spring 2006) are already at least 1 foot tall. So now my question is how best to move the existing baby lilies to a different place? How can I tell whether the baby lilies are stem bulblets or not by their look? Or the only way to find out is to carefully digging up one to see how deep the bulbs are? Also it seems that every year, there are more baby lilies came out. If I dig the previous year's baby lilies in the fall, will I disturb this year's new stem bulblets? like burying the new tiny stem bulblet born in 2008 too deep without knowing about them? |
You can dig around some now carefully with your fingers. If a stub of the old stem is left that will help you find where the bulblets are. But if you find you are "digging to China" while following a baby stem then that means they are offset from the base of the mother bulb. If you wait, you can make it late summer/early fall when the main bulb's leaves first start to yellow. The "babies" should still be visible (and after a seasons worth of growth,hopefully larger than now). Though if you dig up the whole clump it won't matter if the stems aren't visible since even the small bulbs should be readily seen near the main bulb. (The smallest will be the size of a pea and others will be more the size of a marble - with a leaf attached to them. So they should be easy to spot.) And when you plant the bulbets, don't plant them deep like you would a mature bulb. As they develop roots and grow larger they will pull themselves deeper into the soil to the depth appropriate for their size. -Helen |

My Star Gazer Lillies have been growing in a whisky barrell for several years and I have never transferred then. The bloomes were not as big as they were last year. What should I do? They have already bloomed for this year.Thank you for your assistance. I am not sure of my zone upper GA. |
- Posted by hostaholic2 zone 4 MN (My Page) on Thu, Jun 23, 11 at 22:35
Wait until the stems/leaves have turned yellow in late summer /fall to dig, divide and replant. |
- Posted by interspecific 5 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 24, 11 at 9:00
And recharge that barrel with new soil if you're going to replant in there. If you have some little baby bulblets, just cover those with an inch or so--they'll pull themselves down over time. Water in real good once to get the air out and your done. Don't fertilize until next spring. |
- Posted by interspecific 5 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 24, 11 at 21:28
A couple more 'pointers' I forgot to mention: When you're ready to replant, cut the main stems back to about 3 inches above ground. Then replant to the same depth using the old stem as a guide. Do not twist or pull this stem out as this may damage the bulb and next years new stem growth. Stargazers like dapled afternoon shade and are often seen in patio barrels such as yours. Did you know there's a small version of a Stargazer (look alike) called 'After Eight'? Its a stocky plant with more dense folliage--gets about 15--16 inches high. Perfect for patios and borders! |

Rebecca Batlan is the latest Southwestern graduate to be named Teacher of the Year at her school
Five Southwestern students are volunteering in Peru this summer
Jacob Brown, senior Spanish/English double major, is the 2014 winner of the Shearn Writing Award in the Humanities for his paper "Entre tígueres y padres ausentes: la representación estereotipada del hombre dominicano en las películas españolas I Love You Baby y Flores de otro mundo."
Wondering what a course is really about? In an effort to provide students, parents, advisers, and everyone else a sense of what different courses entail, Southwestern has started making course trailers. The Spanish department piloted the program, having Ted Jobe, Assistant Director of the Language Learning Center, create the first trailer for Conversation Through Hispanic Cinema.
Senior Spanish major Jacob Brown presented a paper based on his honors thesis titled, "Modelos masculinos: La cultura norteamericana y las representaciones de la masculinidad hegemónica en Amado amo (1988) de Rosa Montero" at the 20th Annual Carolina Conference on Romance Literatures at UNC Chapel Hill.
Papers written for classes in kinesiology, sociology, Spanish and theatre each bring their authors $1,000
Students taking Spanish III celebrate Day of the Dead
Senior Katie Elder, majoring in Spanish and Education, secured a $1,000 scholarship from the Texas Association of School Personnel Administrators awarded annually to a pre-service teacher. Katie will receive her award at the annual TASPA conference in Austin in December.

I usually hold any and all warnings and precautions until the end of my articles, but in the case of Arrhythmias it is going at the beginning. There are many possible reasons and severity levels of an abnormal heart rate. This is an area of health that should not be taken lightly or played around with! Even The Herbal Pharmacist® has been checked out in the past when things seemed out of bounds. Please check with your medical provider prior to beginning any supplements for this health condition.
Before I get into the supplement part of this health challenge, I strongly suggest exploring the link between heavy metal toxicity and irregular heart rates. If you have ruled out the effect of other lifestyle choices (caffeine, nicotine, food sensitivities, stress, medications, etc) as the cause of your arrhythmic concerns, I recommend getting tested for metal toxicity. Testing is simple and can be ordered through websites like directlabs.com In the meantime, I love using a few particular supplements for arrhythmias. Here is my list of preferred foundational supplements:
The sad fact is that if you do have some other underlying cause (i.e. heavy metals, stress, etc.), these supplements will only suppress your symptoms at best. Ridding your body of the root cause of your irregular heart rate is what is ultimately required.

Funny Eddie Murphy
Eddie Murphy continues to be humorous and crazy at 50 - the star celebrated his big birthday on Sunday, April 3. Making his way up the laughing scale, Murphy initially made his name as a stand-up comic before a stint on Saturday Night Live shot him into the humor stratosphere. Today we present you some interesting facts about Eddie Murphy: * Murphy began his profession early, writing stand-up routines when he was only 15 years old after being inspired by comedian Bill Cosby. * He has dated Halle Berry, Whitney Houston and former Spice Girl Melanie Brown. * In June 2007, DNA tests confirmed that Eddie was the father of Mel B's baby - despite Eddie's insistent claims that he wasn't. * In numerous films, Eddie plays multiple roles in addition to his primary character. * Eddie has starred in a lot more sequels than any other actor: Beverly Hills Cop 2 & 3, Another 48 Hrs, Doctor Dolittle 2, Nutty Professor II: The Klumps and Shrek 2. * Eddie also started a music career in the 80's where he recorded the popular 'Party All The Time' with Rick James. *, Eddie was once paid $1 per minute as a stand-up comedian. * Murphy admitted he hated facing his 50th birthday, because he'd look like a "creepy old man" if he hits on girls. And here's a quote from Eddie Murphy: "I think in twenty years I'll be looked at like Bob Hope. Doing those president jokes and golf sh*t. It scares me." To mark the 50th birthday of Eddie Murphy, photoshop him any way you wish.

Douay-Rheims (RHE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 <The psalm of David, which he sung to the Lord, for the words of Chusi, the son of Jemini.> (7-2) O Lord, my God, in thee have I put my trust; same me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me. | 1 O LORD my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me, |
2 (7-3) Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save. | 2 or they will tear me like a lion and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me. |
3 (7-4) O Lord, my God, if I have done this thing, if there be iniquity in my hands: | 3 O LORD my God, if I have done this and there is guilt on my hands-- |
4 (7-5) If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies. | 4 if I have done evil to him who is at peace with me or without cause have robbed my foe-- |
5 (7-6) Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life, on the earth, and bring down my glory to the dust. | 5 then let my enemy pursue and overtake me; let him trample my life to the ground and make me sleep in the dust. "Selah" |
6 (7-7) Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies. And arise, O Lord, my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded: | 6 Arise, O LORD, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice. |
7 (7-8) And a congregation of people shall surround thee. And for their sakes return thou on high. | 7 Let the assembled peoples gather around you. Rule over them from on high; |
8 (7-9) The Lord judgeth the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, and according to my innocence in me. | 8 let the LORD judge the peoples. Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, according to my integrity, O Most High. |
9 (7-10) The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought; and thou shalt direct the just: the searcher of hearts and reins is God. Just | 9 O righteous God, who searches minds and hearts, bring to an end the violence of the wicked and make the righteous secure. |
10 (7-11) Is my help from the Lord; who saveth the upright of heart. | 10 My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart. |
11 (7-12) God is a just judge, strong and patient: is he angry every day? | 11 God is a righteous judge, a God who expresses his wrath every day. |
12 (7-13) Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready. | 12 If he does not relent, he will sharpen his sword; he will bend and string his bow. |
13 (7-14) And in it he hath prepared to instruments of death, he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn. | 13 He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows. |
14 (7-15) Behold he hath been in labour with injustice: he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity. | 14 He who is pregnant with evil and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment. |
15 (7-16) He hath opened a pit and dug it: and he is fallen into the hole he made. | 15 He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made. |
16 (7-17) His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: and his iniquity shall come down upon his crown. | 16 The trouble he causes recoils on himself; his violence comes down on his own head. |
17 (7-18) I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high. | 17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High. |

Hi, I am new to botany and gardening and I'm looking for a species or species' of plants that have similar features of the popular Chia Pet (Salvia hispanica): 1. A relatively short germination time. 2. Short plant height, about 2-3inches(not strictly speaking). Although I realized that Salvia hispanica grows much larger if planted. 3. A thick ground cover like appearance. 4.Grows indoors. However, unlike a Chia Pet I would like more longevity from the species compared to the 3-4 week life of a Chia Pet, ideally something that would stay small for a couple months. Would I be correct in assuming that, the smaller the species of plant, the longer the germination and slower growing? I am in the process of planting Dichondra repens and Irish Moss (Sagina Subulata) as an experiment as they fit the type of look I would like to achieve. As mentioned, I'm new to this field and trying to narrow down possible choices from thousands of plant species globally which I have little knowledge of. I figured this would be a good place to start. Any suggestions would be welcome; it could be any available plant species that fit characteristic's similar to a Chia Pet. Thank you for your time. |

Don't think there are any Salvias 2-3 inches tall, sorry. |
- Posted by rich_dufresne z7 NC (My Page) on Sat, Aug 3, 13 at 9:17
You might have better luck with a more generalist group. Maybe the North American Rock Garden Society. There aren't many Salvia seeds available in the quantity you may need. Salvia hispanica is used as a food source (grain), and that may be a thread or approach you may be able to pursue with profit. |
You're looking to make a "perennial" chia pet, hm? I think Corsican Mint might work well. It just wants a moister growing environment than Chia. |
- Posted by newbie8961 none (My Page) on Wed, Aug 21, 13 at 0:13
Thanks Siir, thats a great suggestion,Corsican Mint is definitely worth looking into. It fits what Im looking for so I'll be sure to try to germinate some seed. |

Hi Sandy, I like Spring Hill and Michigan Bulb. I haven't had a problem with either. Linda |
A few years back, I got a Totally Tomatoes Catalog. I ordered a few seeds, sending in my order with payment, as opposed to ordering on line. By that fall, they had passed my name on to others, and I got a total of 24 different gardening catalogs in the mail. That was all it took. Most have since stopped mailing to me though, since I didn't order from any of them, but I still get them from several places. I don't buy any plants via mail, but instead search all nurseries in passing for new stuff, and discounted plants. Sue...always on 'the lookout' for bargains everywhere |

pinetree is not bad, but summer hill seeds is the best for me, they let me know every step of the way what they're doing, PLUS they send me bonus's!! WOO HOO!! can't beat that!! LOL they are great people!! LOL |
Brecks premium bulbs wonderful guarentee that you never have to use. And some decent coupons that make it almost affordable. I have not had any really good experiences with any of the seed catalogs. And I've tried alot of them. I would make the following suggestion. That they tell you how many seeds are in their packages. Because Whatnot.com and others only send a very few seeds so their good deal ends up being a rip off. Also check the shipping costs. What some of the companies do is make the seeds very cheap and then sock you on the shipping and handling charges. Grrrrrrh. I now always check E-Bay before I buy. Some great deals there. Good luck and let me know which ones work really well for you. |

The purpose of the directive is to protect and restore the environment rather than merely indemnifying third parties. In this context the protection provided by a standard Public Liability policy is quite limited, covering only third party bodily injury or property damage resulting from a sudden and accidental incident.
JLT has developed an Environmental Impairment Liability policy which combines many distinguished features available across the Environmental Impairment Liability (EIL) market. It is accessible to all businesses that have a potential exposure in this area. This policy will provide cover for clean-up and mitigation costs, as well as Business Interruption, Third Party Liability and Defence Costs.
The benefits include:

With new statutory provisions recently enforced across the EU and an increasing trend of large group litigations against many spheres of industry, it has become clear that many sectors are likely to have significant exposure to Environmental Liability.
Prudent companies protect themselves against property damage and third party liabilities as a consequence of flood, but many may still overlook their environmental liability exposure in the wake of such a natural disaster.

PROS: Shake reduction works great with any lens. Uses AA batteries which can be found anywhere.
CONS: Smallish buffer, doesn't support new USM lenses.
PROS: Well balanced and feels great during operation. First time I've used RAW and with the processing program provided it cranks out some really great pics.
CONS: As reported by many, white balance is a problem but using RAW makes for good pictures in very low light situations. 6 mp is problematic--for me it's no big deal since my hard copies will all be 4x6.
