The Institute aims to cultivate in Indonesia and Australia an appreciation of the quality, diversity and sophistication of the visual and performing arts in the two countries, and to develop a market in Indonesia for Australian visual and performing arts and Australian expertise. It also aims to encourage relations between Australian and Indonesian sports people and organisations.
In 2000–2001, the Institute supported an eclectic range of artistic activities ranging from in-country arts residencies, to collaborative projects and exchanges of tours of Australia and Indonesia by leading contemporary artists. A highlight of the year was the visit to Jakarta under AII auspices of the National Aboriginal and Islander Skills Development Association (NAISDA) Dance College, whose performances were widely acclaimed. The sport program, which was deferred in 1999–2000 after consultation with Indonesian sports officials, remained inactive in 2000–2001.
Arts residencies
Indonesia continues to be a popular destination for Australian artists, reflecting its vibrant traditional and contemporary cultural environment. Since 1993 the Institute has sponsored numerous Australian artists, writers and arts managers undertaking residencies in Indonesia through the Asialink Centre (University of Melbourne) arts residencies program. The residencies provide an opportunity for Australians in the arts field to build enduring linkages with Indonesian counterparts, develop their skills and gain insights into Indonesias artistic institutions. Importantly, the residencies also showcase Australian talent, creativity and innovation to the Indonesia media and wider community. In 2000–2001 the AII supported residencies in Indonesia for visual artist Megan Kirwan-Ward, performing artist Grisha Dolgopolov and arts manager Simon Wellington.

The AII was also pleased in 2000–2001 to support the first arts residency in Australia under the Asialink program by an Indonesian, the writer Dorothea Rosa Herliany. Dorothea was hosted by the University of Western Australia and La Trobe University, Melbourne, as well undertaking public speaking engagements in Sydney and Tasmania and writing several pieces for the mass media in Indonesia. During her time at La Trobe University, Dorothea completed her recently published bilingual poetry collection, Kill the Radio. This was a very impressive outcome from her residency.
NAISDA Indigenous dance tour
The Institutes sponsorship of a visit to Indonesia by students from the National Aboriginal Islander Skills Development Association (NAISDA) Dance College was one of the AII success stories in 2000–2001. NAISDAs public engagements in Jakarta included dance performances at the opening of the 2001 Jakarta Arts Festival and before crowds of 700 and 800 respectively at the Indonesia Buddhist Council and the annual dinner of the Australian Alumni Association of Indonesia (IKAMA). Students also conducted a series of workshops with Indonesian counterparts.

The reaction of Indonesian audiences to NAISDAs public performances exceeded all expectations:
It was the first time that a number of Indonesian people had seen, or even understood, that Australia has an Indigenous population with traditional dances. The responses that were received, by students and staff, were overwhelming.
— NAISDA comment.
For many of the NAISDA students, the visit to Indonesia was their first trip abroad and all found the rich Indonesian culture and the opportunity to dance in front of large and enthusiastic audiences an exhilarating experience. Many friendships were forged during the visit and it is expected that both Australian and Indonesian performers will be able to adapt some of each others culture into their own pieces of contemporary choreography.
Krakatau tour
With AII support, the prominent Indonesian jazz fusion group, Krakatau, toured Australia 10–22 October 2000. Krakatau presented a total of eight performances in Noosa, Brisbane, Byron Bay, Canberra and Sydney and complemented these with workshops and informal community meetings. The tour followed an earlier visit to Australia in 1997 and, more recently, performances in France and China.
Indonesian jazz fusion group Krakatau
An estimated 2200 people attended Krakataus performances, while around 330 students participated in the workshops. During the course of the tour, Krakatau members, who are based at the Farai Music School in Jakarta and STSI Bandung, made contact with staff and students at the Noosa Federation of the Arts; Queensland Conservatorium; Canberra School of Music and School of Asian Studies, ANU; the Music Department and Centre for Performance Studies at Sydney University; Languages Department, University of New South Wales; Sydney Conservatorium; Nirimba TAFE, Western Sydney Institute of Technology; and the Australia Indonesia Arts Alliance, Byron Bay. Australian audiences responded very warmly to Krakataus music. Media coverage of the tour was extensive.
The gig at [Brisbane wine bar] Jamesons was partly concert, partly jam session. Brisbane reedmen Nick Aggs, Isaac Hurren and Phil Noy joined the Indonesians, bridging the cultural divide to whip up an impromptu musical storm.
— Courier Mail, 17 October 2000.
In the Shadows of the Buddha
The Institute provided sponsorship for a party of four students, a teacher and an education officer from high schools in Geelong, Victoria to visit Yogyakarta to exhibit at an Indonesian school drawings of the great Buddhist monument, Candi Borobodur, produced by Geelong High School students in 1999. The drawings had been earlier exhibited at the Geelong Regional Art Gallery and, by invitation, at the Indonesian Consulate in Melbourne for Idul Fitri celebrations in January 2000, promoting significant interest in Indonesia for the drawings to be exhibited there.
The Geelong students also travelled to Borobodur with selected Indonesian students to draw en plein air with their Indonesian partners. The results of this collaboratively recorded experience were also hung along with the 1999 drawings at the Yogyakarta exhibition. The opportunity for the Geelong students to experience the magnificent Candi Borobodur monument in the context of gotong royong (cooperation) with Indonesian counterparts left them deeply moved and gained them a deeper respect and understanding of Indonesia and its culture.
Kamus Keramik
In 1999–2000, the Institute assisted the Australian potter Brian Alexander to instruct members of the Indonesian Board for the Research and Implementation of Technology (BPPT) and local ceramic producer, Bali Moon, in the development of new technology and methods to increase the productivity of ceramic artists. As a follow-up to that project, the AII assisted Mr Alexander publish in early 2001 an Indonesian language ceramic dictionary — Kamus Keramik.
It is expected that the dictionary will be published in the second half of 2001. Copies of the book will be distributed free of charge to many universities and professional potteries throughout Indonesia.

What is it with the Lohan girls? They start off as such cute, fresh-faced girls but quickly become hard-looking young women.
Take Lindsay's little sister Aliana "Ali" Lohan. Gone are the rosy cheeks and warm smile, replaced by strong bone structure and brows. Keep in mind she's only seventeen!
Click on the "Launch Gallery" button below to see more of Ali's grown-up look:
Ali is signed with Next Models in Los Angeles as one of their new faces. You can check out her online portfolio here. In some shots she bears an uncanny resemblance to her mother Dina.
Do you think Ali's look is too edgy? Tell TooFab in the comments below!
EllieS: 1242 days ago
Anyone notice how much she looks like Sam Ronson? Just sayin'
CousinEddy: 1242 days ago
She's a drug addict just like her older sister. End of story.
Erin: 1241 days ago
Did she get a nose job? Flip through the pictures! She looks completely different.
mannequin: 1241 days ago
I think she's actually the prettier of the two, she has uniqueness, Lindsay is more common, everyday. I hope she doesn't go the route her sister seems to be leading her down.
DiamondLil: 1241 days ago
WOW !....Looked through the gallery of photos, and w-h-a-t a transformstion.What happened to that fresh faced girl, like Lindsay once looked like. The current photo makes Ali look harsh, not healthy at all.Personally I think Lindsay,her sister,has great potential, but because of her choices,....she can't get work (uninsurable)and some just don't want to bother with her antics.What a talent going to waste;gee Lindsay, is this the model you want to set for Ali, or is it possoble too much time has passed for Ali to be saved.The other fact, Dina Lohan as a role model,....really? Come on Lindsay, somebody has to step up before it's too late.Have to admit Ali does look unhealthy in these photos, more like a drug addict, rather a healthy 17 year old.
e: 1241 days ago
they are both way too thin which makes them look pained and old rather than healthy, young, and happy. not worth it.
gagirl: 1241 days ago
WTF happened?!?!? She looks a hot, anorexic mess.
Michael: 1241 days ago
This young girl has Anorexia, no doubt in my mind. Lindsay and that woman they call a "mother" should feel proud. They've both managed to screw up this young girls life to the point of possibly no return. Lindsay Lohan needs to move to Canada or somewhere out of sight, I can't stand seeing her any longer and the termoil/influence that Lindsay has had on her sister, Ali, who's been living w/her all summer is unforgivable. This whole family needs to go to an undisclosed rehab facility to repair the damage that has been done.
juden: 1241 days ago
Wow, if that Lohan mother has any other young children CPS really needs to take them away. This is child abuse. If this kid isn't dead by 30 she is going to be one messed up adult... and you think after seeing Lindsay ruin her life because of fame their mother would be a little more careful with her other kids. Absolutely no respect for that Lohan mom.
lauren: 1240 days ago
She looks androgynous now. Not pretty or healthy.

Formula One racings governing body, the FIA, has revealed plans for an innovative rear-wing design which it says could dramatically increase the amount of overtaking in the sport.
The Centreline Downwash Generating (CDG) Wing is effectively two small rear wings - one over each wheel - with a clear gap in between. This gap would create a wake in which a following car would generate more downforce, allowing them to run much closer to the car in front through corners, hence making passing easier.
The FIA hopes to see the design introduced as early as 2007 in conjunction with a return to wider wheels and slick tyres. The idea will be presented to a meeting of the Formula One Commission in London on Monday, where future regulations will be discussed.
The CDG Wing marks the first results of the FIAs collaboration with technology partners AMD, researching ways of improving the aerodynamic performance of a car when trying to overtake.
This new research is important for the future of Formula One, said FIA President, Max Mosley. By introducing the CDG wing we can give motor sport fans exactly what they have asked for, wheel-to-wheel racing with much more overtaking.
It is our hope that the teams will collaborate with us in the optimisation of this radical new idea so that the aerodynamic benefits can be introduced into Formula One in 2007 rather than having to wait until 2008.
Major revisions to the aerodynamic regulations introduced in 2005 achieved their objective of cutting speeds. The downside was increasingly intricate bodywork designs which created high levels of turbulence behind the cars, making it more difficult for following cars to overtake.

For most people, the purchase of a home is the largest investment they'll ever make. Getting an independent, expert opinion on the operability of the structure and its systems is a no-brainer. But not all home inspectors have the same experience, training, or certifications – what's more is there are currently no federal regulations governing home inspectors. Home inspectors are governed only by whatever laws are in place in the state in which the inspection is performed, and these laws vary greatly.
So how do you make sure you've hired the right person for the job?
When shopping for a home inspector, it's vital that you do your homework and interview each inspector based on the points below.
Ask to see one of their inspection reports. At the conclusion of any inspection, you should receive a report on the inspector's findings. Again, inspectors are going to vary widely – report styles can range from the minimal hand written checklist to the jargon-filled narrative. Inspection reports can be difficult to understand, so it's important that you check out a sample report. Items marked as "fair", "poor", or "inadequate" without any further explanation will not help you understand what the problem is or what exactly to repair. Make sure that the inspector always specifies the exact problem and recommended experts to perform the repairs.

text: The one and only Queen Diva, Big Freedia, has stepped out with news of a new single promoting a new album, Just Be Free, due for release on June 17. By now you should know that this is greatest twerk show on the planet and Freedia is arguably the biggest global ambassador for bounce music in 2014. "Explode" doesn't necessarily reinvent the wheel, but that's never really been a part of Freedia's game. The rowdy club natured appeal is still all there and the lyrics inspiring you to cut loose are also in tow. Why the need to rock the boat amirite?

Perhaps transparency, not necessarily labeling, has been the fuel driving the organic train.
There is no doubt that, collectively, conventional agriculture has a history of a shut-door policy in consumer outreach, which has allowed adversaries such as the Environmental Working Group on the produce side and the likes of PETA on the animal-agriculture side to gain momentum.
But is a sustainable label a way for conventional agriculture to become more favorable to consumers and narrow the perceived difference between organic and conventionally grown produce?
Or will it result in increased pressure from retailers at the financial burden of the grower?
I would argue the latter.
This is simply another opportunity for government, activists and consumers to dictate how farmers farm.
There is enough "producer baby-sitting" going on in the regulatory world without adding a "voluntary" standard to comply with as well.
Let the marketers stick a label on the package if they see value.
Don't subject the grower to the copious amount of paperwork and fees to comply with a standard that will inevitably be hijacked by activists anyway.
Why feed into activist demands and perpetuate the issue? It's anyone's guess what their next demand will be.

Kobeissi is quick to point out, both in conversation and on every page of the website, that Cryptocat is not a perfect solution for every scenario. The goal has always been to strike a balance between easy user experience and security. He has been transparent about the bugs that have been discovered along the way as the Cryptocat project has grown, and he invites more people to check his open-source code for errors, plying them with T-shirts, stickers, and credit. The warning on the Cryptocat homepage is worth quoting in full, as it shows both how high the stakes are for some internet users around the world and how seriously Kobeissi takes his responsibility:
Cryptocat is not a magic bullet. Even though Cryptocat provides useful encryption, you should never trust any piece of software with your life, and Cryptocat is no exception.
Cryptocat does not anonymize you: While your communications are encrypted, your identity can still be traced since Cryptocat does not mask your IP address. For anonymization, we highly recommend using Tor.
Cryptocat does not protect against key loggers: Your messages are encrypted as they go through the wire, but that doesn't mean that your keyboard is necessarily safe. Cryptocat does not protect against hardware or software key loggers which might be snooping on your keyboard strokes and sending them to an undesired third party.
Cryptocat does not protect against untrustworthy people: Parties you're conversing with may still leak your messages without your knowledge. Cryptocat aims to make sure that only the parties you're talking to get your messages, but that doesn't mean these parties are necessarily trustworthy.
To mitigate those potential gaps in Cryptocat's security scheme, Kobeissi suggests that people can use Cryptocat in conjunction with Tor, which will provide IP anonymity and a censorship-workaround, and secret-question authentication, which can help assure them that they're talking to the right people behind the usernames.
At a recent journalism-security workshop at Columbia's Tow Center, several trainers jokingly referred to Cryptocat as "the gateway drug of encryption," saying that it was an easy way for people to start understanding safe communication before moving on to even more complex and secure channels. When asked what he thinks about that characterization, and what "drug" he thinks users should move on to after they've gotten the hang of Cryptocat, Kobeissi laughs but then offers a different take.
"Honestly, I think it should be the other way around. I think the services themselves should move towards the user, not the user towards the services," Kobeissi says. "People aren't willing to move into these technologies that are essentially, at their very core, inaccessible. So the smarter thing to focus on would be for the services themselves becoming more accessible to the people."

ya rly
Did this show end with a whore off?
she's starting to look a little long in the tooth.
…………thats hot
Looks more like the Pussy Flash Dolls.
Ugh, the skank is strong in this one.
That's got to be illegal in some states. At least Idaho.
Why doesn't she just cut to the chase and do porn? Then she can show her bony vagina all the time.
I would tickle that bitches taco untill she begged me to stop…holy shit its hot this morning.. that Dave dude is obviously a blind faggot to cheat on her
I dunno, I cheated on Carmen Electra too. Its easy to judge, but, when she wont have sex with you, you have to get it somewhere.
I'd make a comment about how hilariously pathetic this is, except that would make me a jealous fatty.
Judging by her hairstyle in that last picture, she must be watching a lot of "Mork and Mindy" reruns.
She is an inspiration to thirty-five year olds everywhere…
#9 – and you know that her vagina is bony how? You'd be more believable if you said that her vagina was large. After all she was married to Dennis Rodman.
That is the ONLY reason that would keep me from taking a very long dip in her snatch pool. I don't think that she'd feel me since Rodman stretched her out.
What a flipping shame.
#13 – Damn – what a flashback THAT was. You're definitely showing your age. Or your affinity for TV Land.
I don't know what Carmen Electra is doing here.But i think it would more spectaculair if she jumped through a burning hoop,right after the dog.
thats a sight I didn't need to see.
The pics are hot until you realize that she's performing for a bunch of LPGA dykes (picture a sea of Jeri Blanks). Carmen is the uber starfucker. She fucked Prince for a record deal, and since then you have to have some name recognition to get up inside. She's working out her tongue on Joan Jett now. I'm sure somewhere Dave Navarro (who, incidentally, looks like a male Joan Jett) is crying in between sucking dick.
What booty?
If you wouldn't do her, your name is probably Andy Dick.
How did Tara Leigh Patrick ever come up with such a cheesy stage name? Is Carmen Electra the sound a windsock vagina makes when it queefs?
Once again, she was great in "Dirty Love".
and every man would love to knock the walls on her.
Prince gave her that name.
fuck she's hot
hey Scots, clone that bitch, stat
Prince told her to call herself that. If you are going to hang with Prince, you cant have a boring name like tara patrick.
he also named Vanity of Vanity 6.
But not Apolonia, whose real name is Apolonia Kotero.
I will now go kill myself for somehow knowing so much useless trivia about Prince. Excuse me for a second……
#19 really, i always thought it was Joan Jett who looked like a male Dave Navarro
That is one CLEAN CLOSE SHAVE!
Carmen Electra did Pussycat Doll shows all the time in L.A. So fucking what?
Nice pics though.
Wow. Carmen Electra is classy. I hope someday I can have a daughter just like her. How much high-end liquor do you figure it takes to drink your shame away after a display like this?
…and while i'm at it, am I really the only one who thinks the name 'Pussycat Dolls' is about the most pathetic, 7th grade attempt at sensuality ever used in pop culture?
I know no one agrees with this cuz men don't really discriminate this much when it comes to half naked whores but…she looks so used up. I remember going to my friend Joe's house when I was like 16 and seeing a poster of her in his room. Okay so that was…6 years ago. She was hot then. she didn't look as fake to me and her face looked less crunched and damaged by tanning. More angelic I think…
Her face just looks haggard to me. Her body is great but what really does it for me is a pretty face…her's has gone way down hill.
And #31 I couldn't agree more.
The first time I heard "The Pussycat Dolls" on the radio I thought it was a major joke. I just can't take them seriously as artists because it sounds like they combined a whole bunch of retarded stripper names together.
BTW, I remember "Carmen" before she was a star, at the 1995 Dallas Fantasy Comic Con. I was a dealer there. She'd dress like a sexy vampire at one of the booths, and they'd put her picture in the program guide. I've always thought she was a little sad underneath. Now, she's just a glorified 40-year old stripper. You wanna bet in ten years, she's back doing that small-show circuit, like so many other ex-playboy models? It's called the circle of life, boys and girls.
#32 I totally know what you mean. She's still beautiful and has a great body, but she's starting to look worn down. I think she may have also had some plastic surgery that changed her face a bit. I'm glad to hear that an "angelic face" still means something to boys, and not just that open mouthed eyes-rolled-back face that I keep seeing these chicks doing, trying to look hot(aka Jessica Simpson).
Call me crazy, but I really think I'd like to have sex with her in her butt, right now. Weird.
It's spectacles like this which make me glad I never went into entertainment. I mean, is this really what you have to look forward to 'in the biz'?! Going to some over-priced club to watch a bunch of used-up skanks covered with Dennis Rodman sweat and Dave Navaro load prance around in lingerie earning the cash for their next botox injection?! Thanks, but i'll take the corner bar, my usual skank, and a $2 bottle of Yuengling any day of the week over this crap…
First time I ever saw a Pussycat Dolls video, I thought it was a really lame parody of some sort. Even the name "Pussycat Dolls" sounded like a joke. Then I realized it actually for real, and I got that same feeling I had the first time I ever saw a Spice Girls video: "Ridiculously gay flash-in-the-pan pop music, they'll last about two weeks" – only to witness them take over the fucking world.
According to her age,her body ain't bad.Only her face has a kinda high Fergie-standard.
She's got a nice ass for a 40-year old. Fifteen years ago, sure, guys would have killed for a chance with her.
#7 Give in to the Dark side of the Skank….
When women insist on acting and dressing like stupid, worthless, dirty whores, they shouldn't be surprised at being treated as such.
Luckily i'm going to meet a much hotter woman soon…
This is a side of carmen we've never seen before!
#12 I thought if that talentless desperate clod can do that, so can I so I hooked my neighbor's daughter's hoola hoop up to the ceiling fan and it immediately folded inward and now I have a serious rug burn on both knees, not to mention what am I going to explain about the hoola hoop's condition to my neighbors' daughter. You may think Carmen is pathetic but that is one damn strong hoola hoop!!
you people are so full of shit, how many of you would quit your 9-5 loser jobs for Carmen's lifestyle… sure it's skanky and she's not doing Oscar work but,,, she never claimed to be anything but a hot piece of ass , at least she doesnt pretend to be a 'serious actress' like so many annoying skanks do… and yeah she is not 23 yrs anymore, guess what its called getting old. at least she is still working hard at looking good.
I am pretty sure Dinah Shore would frown upon this.
@46, yolaskankho. that's all.
There're so many hot girls/women.But i think Carmen electra is not the queen of them.
#46, besides being the master of understatement ("not Oscar material") you are also right that she is "getting out there and doing something". I have just this day vowed to next year join the Dinah Shore Hoola Hoop Invitational and, by God!, I will never have such a crappy hoola hoop again.

The good people at Deadspin came across a tidy little piece of information: a game-used bat belonging to Mickey Mantle is scheduled to go up for auction later this month. When the authentication expert noticed a few imperfections in the bat's surface, he got out the x-ray machine and discovered, lo, the Great American Hero used a corked bat at the end of his career.
Get out the fainting couches and Valium, Billy Crystal is going to need a minute or two.
Deadspin quotes from the lot notes made by the auction's authenticator who observed the "alterations" on the bat, performed the x-ray and concluded "…the barrel has been drilled and filled with cork." Hardly surprising but incredibly timely, given this week's spat of handbags between members of the Blue Jays and Red Sox media.
The back and forth now includes a healthy dose of Red Sox paranoia, as the BoSox used their "secondary signs" even without runners on base, as if to indicate someone might be watching from beyond the field of play.
Stealing signs, spit balls, corked bats by American folk heroes: is nothing sacred? Can't a bunch of men in their pajamas just play a child's bat-and-ball game in peace?

On Monday, Kodak announced several additions to its M-line of compact digital cameras. The EasyShare M763, M863, M893 IS, and flagship M1033 offer fun and stylish colors, compact designs, and easy-to-use HD still and video capture modes.
Kodak had the new EasyShare V1273 touch screen ultra-compact out and about on Sunday evening, and Monday's official press announcement, while not offering much detail, confirmed the specs we saw in action: 12 megapixels, 3x zoom, optical image stabilization, and a 3-inch LCD touch screen.
Samsung's new i8 camera/PMP follows in the functional tradition of the company's i85, offering a feature set aimed to combine two pocket-size devices into a single unit. On the camera side, the i8 offers typical specs for a current compact: 8 megapixels, a 3x zoom, and a 2.7-inch LCD screen.
At a pre-CES press conference today, Sony unveiled a replacement for its entry-level Alpha A100 SLR, the Sony Alpha DSLR-A200. The 10.2 megapixel A200 offers several improvements over its predecessor, including updated menus and controls, a 2.7-inch LCD, cleaner high-ISO shots, a more compact form factor, and a faster AF system.
According to information presented at a press conference this afternoon, a completely new line of Casio EXILIM compact cameras will be available for purchase this spring. New models include the EXILIM Card EX-S10, an ultra-thin card camera, the high-style EXILIM Zoom EX-Z80, and the wide-angle 10.1 megapixel EXILIM Zoom EX-Z100 and EX-Z200.
Fujifilm announced today the launch of the latest addition to its ultra-compact Z series, the Fuji FinePix Z100fd. At slightly more than three-quarters of an inch thick, the 8-megapixel Z100 packs a 5x optical zoom and a mechanically stabilized sensor into a small form-factor device.
The Sigma DP1 prototype was shown off at Photokina in October 2006. Many people have been anxiously awaiting this camera as it would be the first compact camera to feature a much larger sensor than other compact cameras. However, in an announcement today, the COO of Sigma apologized for the delay and let everyone know that some of the DP1 specifications that were previously announced will be changing.
Wouldn't George Eastman, inventor and marketer of the first consumer camera (1888) be amazed if he could see what the venerable company that bears his name (Eastman Kodak) was selling these days? One of the newest digital cameras from the folks in Rochester is the Kodak Easyshare Z812 IS. The Z812 IS (the flagship of Kodak's megazoom Z-series) is a compact 8.2 megapixel digital camera with a 12X optical zoom, optical image stabilization, a 2.5 inch LCD, auto and manual exposure options, face detection AF, a Smart Scene mode, and an HD (high definition) video mode.
Timed along with the Olympus E-3 announcement, Olympus is also announcing three new Zuiko Digital lenses, all equipped with Supersonic Wave Drive (SWD) motors for fast and quiet AF performance. The new lenses are the Zuiko Digital ED 12-60mm f2.8-4.0 SWD, 50-200mm f2.8-3.5 SWD, and 14-35mm f2.0 SWD. Also being announced is the new ultra-compact Zuiko Digital EC-20 2x teleconverter.
he first Olympus Stylus was a tough, stylish, and very popular compact 35mm point & shoot camera that produced dependably excellent snapshots. Digital Stylus models retained the panache of the original "clamshell" Stylus and added twenty-first century imaging and weatherproofing technology. The third generation Olympus Stylus 790 SW shrinks the Stylus mystique to shirt-pocket size. The 790 SW is a super light, ultra-compact, and very thin digicam with seven megapixel resolution, a 3X "periscope" style zoom, a 2.5inch/6.4cm LCD screen, and face recognition auto focus.
Today, Pentax is rolling out the 12 megapixel Optio A40 and ultra-slim Optio V10. The A40 is their most advanced compact point & shoot and features mechanical image stabilization, face detection and a 2.5 inch LCD. The V10 is an 8 megapixel camera with a 3 inch LCD and 3x optical zoom. The Pentax Optio A40 will be available in October 2007 for $300 and the Pentax Optio V10 will be available in November 2007 for $250.
Nikon's new Life cameras, the Coolpix L14 and Coolpix L15, don't really change the formula much from previous generations. You'll still find a very compact camera, powered by AA batteries, that is very easy to use. Nikon includes two Energizer e2 Lithium batteries with the L14 that gives it an estimated 1000 shots. Both cameras will be available in September. The Coolpix L14 will cost $150 and the Coolpix L15 will be $180.

January 31, 2012 in Uncategorized
Motherhood has altered me completely. I'm not the same woman I used to be and I believe I have been changed for the better. My entire existence revolves around my family. My husband and my child.
I watched '16 and pregnant' on MTV last night and I was so upset. My heart went out to that poor baby; stuck with a bratty teenage mother who only thinks of herself and her own needs and entertainment. She only wants to party and Grandma is looking after that beautiful, forlorn little baby boy. Now I can't imagine putting my own selfish needs above Caleb's. The mother kept complaining about how hard it is to be a mother. How getting up in the middle of the night kills her. And all I could think was 'if you kept your legs closed like you're supposed to for another couple of years, you wouldn't be in this situation'. I also thought 'oh stop your adolescent bitching, it's not that hard!' Her problem was how the baby constantly needed her. And she hated being constantly needed. I love it. I love being my baby's safe haven. Her problem was constantly feeding and changing her baby. I don't mind at all. I breastfeed my baby and get to spend quality time with him all day.
This is one of the most important lessons I want to teach my children – if you're not ready to deal with consequences that will alter your life, don't do it!! Don't have sex until you're ready to deal with what comes afterward!! Be it emotional strain, hurt, pregnancy, an STD… (I'm talking from a teenager perspective). Only dabble with sex if you can handle it!
I may sound horribly judgemental but I can't help it. Since becoming a mother I've become fiercely protective of babies. I can't stand anyone treating a baby with anything less than devotion, respect and responsibility. I can't stand anyone talking about their baby like it's a dog that gets in the way.
I just looked at that girl and wondered how could she talk about giving the baby up for adoption after being his mother for a month… did she not feel any kind of love for him? Luckily she decided to keep the baby and told her mother that she couldn't do it without her (after telling her mother to f@ck off out of her life – that alone is unacceptable) but I still pity that little baby so much, for being dependant on her.
Sorry, I'm being horrible. Sorry sorry sorry!!
Things are better between me and Hubby. From tonight, we're taking turns bathing Caleb. I told him this is his child too and I resent the fact that I'm doing almost everything. It's not just doing a duty like changing a diaper, or bathing the baby. It's about quality time!! He has to spend quality time with his son. Five minutes of goo-gooing with Caleb is not quality time. We didn't talk about his stunt with the dummy, but if he ever pulls such a stunt again, there will be consequences that he's not going to like.
TMI warning – I have a really sore nether region (at the back). The aambui just won't go away, and now I've got a pitsweer type of thing there as well. I get it sometimes, I don't know why. And getting rid of it is gonna be hard…
Anyhoo, off to change Caleb's nappy and have some breakfast!
Have a good day!

Make Intelligent Decisions Quickly and Independently. Joel Ronning, CEO of Digital River, an e-commerce outsourcing provider in Eden Prarie, Minnesota, makes decisions for his company based on this equation: "Experience plus intelligence equals intuition." To this, Ronning adds a degree of fearlessness and puts the element of time in front of every decision. When does a given outcome have to take place? What choices must be made now to bring about the necessary results? Follow Ronning's lead. Look at opportunities in your sales forecast and ask yourself these questions: When does an outcome need to take place, what has to happen to get the results that you, your prospects and your customers want?
Stay Focused. Isn't it amazing what the power of focus can accomplish? In the field of medicine, a focused beam of light performs laser surgery that's less intrusive and less destructive than doctors 30 years ago could have ever dreamed possible. And in your own business, you have the opportunity to take the power of focus and use it to change everything.
Emil Wang, CEO of Latitude Communications, a provider of e-conferencing services in Santa Clara, California, is big on focus: "Come at me with what you're selling, but be honest and stay on purpose," Wang says. "Be very clear about what you want and don't ask premature questions. If anyone, regardless of title, sounds flaky, I'll brush them off." Further your own agenda by sticking to the prospect's. In fact, that might be the ultimate CEO selling secret.
Advice From a ProBRIAN TRACY'S TIPS ON SCORING POINTS WITH COMPANY BIGWIGS
Having written 22 books on the topic, Brian Tracy knows a thing or two about selling and achieving top performance. In his book Focal Point (AMACOM), Tracy maintains that you should "compress every possible step when it comes to your sales process." This is especially true when it comes to making that big sale happen. The paradox is that you must combine this passion for compression with a willingness to be patient and persistent. The trick, according to Tracy, is to do a lot of little things over time-and not to obsess over a single opportunity.
This is especially true when you are trying to form winning relationships with the CEOs you want to do business with. "I've sent letters and unsolicited proposals, left voice-mail messages and played telephone tag for six months to three years to get an appointment with a CEO," Tracy explains. "I'll go on the Web and download the company's information, or make a request for sales literature. Then before I pick up the telephone to call a CEO, I'll check the organization's current stock price and its past three months' performance." Thanks to the Internet, most of this research can be done in just a few clicks.
Tracy's approach is worth emulating-and it doesn't take a lot of time. A minimal amount of research will provide you with the information you need to craft a great opening line. And after you finally connect with that CEO, follow Tracy's example. "I always send a letter to thank the CEO for his or her time," he says. "But that's not all the letter says. More important, it states specifically what I can and can't do to further the CEO's overachievement of goals, plans and objectives." As Tracy has found, this approach will make the return trip to any CEO's office a good deal easier.

1:One of the easiest places to add just a touch of color is through makeup and nail polishes. These 2 vehicles give all the POP you need without looking overdone… Tarte lip stain and OPI Big Apple Red are two great additions to any neutral ensemble
2:If you're ready to make a bigger splash in the Crimson pool, accessories are the next best way to spruce up your look. We are loving this infinity scarf from F21 for under $13!
3:Personally, I prefer to purchase a new top (or 2) than spend money on everyday necessities; however, this chic umbrella from Walmart is quickly changing my mind…and for $10, who can complain?!

Since the board is quiet, I thought I would post some pictures I took of the Quilter's Stash, the store I work at one or two days a week. Here are a few of our Asian collection. Tomorrow or the next day I will post batiks. They are to die for. |

Fran you must be in hog heaven when you're working there. |

Nice layout... makes selecting fabric easier when there is room to move around and really see what is there..... |
Hey Fran, Welcome back! Hope you had a great trip. This looks like a great place to work, but I'm pretty sure I would be bringing home fabric instead of a pay cheque. Faye |
Wow Fran, what a beautiful place to work!!! I would be the same Faye and I probably would still owe them money. Rosa |
I am completely envious! I live in a town with a quilt store that has pretty limited selection, very high prices and the staff acts like they are doing you such a favor to even cut your fabric. Needless to say if I need fabric I order it online or drive 40 miles to the big city. Can't wait to see more pictures. |
What lovely fabrics and how lucky you are to be able to play with them often. What is that pattern of the quilt on the wall? I like the color combination. Jean |
That quilt on the wall is from one of the Turning Twenty books. Not sure exactly which one. The Asian print was used as a focus fabric and the smaller patterned ones worked in around it. |
I agree, I couldn't afford to to work there. What a dream come true to me around all that beutiful fabric and books to boot!!!!Jayne |
Fran, is that an online quilt shop? I won a basket full of goodies from an online shop called The Quilter's Stash a few years ago. I am wondering if it is the same shop. Linda OH |
Be still my heart! Nope, I couldn't work there. LOL. My three major weaknesses are Plants, fabric and books in that order. I worked at a greenhouse/nursery before I opened my own and the boss allowed us to purchase our trees, etc at wholesale. We kept tally sheets in the break room of our purchases and mine was always several pages long and it got taken out of our paychecks before they were issued. I can't even imagine all the UFOs working in a fabric store would create. |

Wow, what a lovely shop! I can hardly wait to see the batiks! Thanks for posting the pics. |

Although we built our house in the boonies, I have been fortunate that in the nearest town--Clifton: pop. 2500--there is a nice quilt shop. The owner bought a small house and arranged the displays and class functions in the various rooms. Her selection is very good--maybe not as full as Fran's, but better than what we had in Waco. Of course, with five large storage boxes full of fabric, I don't allow myself to buy new- I just feast my eyes. Carole |
Linda, no it is not online, although we do fill phone orders if someone knows exactly what they want. |
You must feel like you're wrapped in a warm cocoon. Great selection of fabrics. Do you give in to temptation and buy a lot of it? ~Geraldine |

Memories!! This brings back lots of good memories for me,since i also worked in a quilt shop for 10 years.One of my favorite days was when the new shipments came in,talk about drooooooooooooling,oh my.I'm still sewing some of the fabrics i bought back then and i've been retired for 9 years. Kathi |
