Video codec type and capture bitrate w. K-01, K-5 Mark II
Re: Video codec type and capture bitrate w. K-01, K-5 Mark II
In reply to Francis Carver,

Thank you, Russel, for the link to the imaging-resource.com review of the K-5. Although the K-5 is now only $850, I was actually looking at the K-5 Mark II, which is still priced at $1,200 on B&H. That is quite a huge upcharge, i.e. $350. I am thinking over whether the Mark II is worth the upgraded price. According to the review, the K-5 cannot do autofocusing in video even with Pentax lenses, and neither can the K-5 Mark II. But there must be some differences for the $350 price gap between K-5 & K-5II, correct?
Some info in the review is not exactly what Pentax rep told me when I called back again today. For instance, Pentax says that in Best quality 1080p25, 1GB of card will record 79 seconds of M-JPEG video , which comes to 12.46MB per second, which comes to a bitrate of 101MB/sec. So, that's pretty close to the 95Mb/sec rate I saw in the Wiki chart. Reviewer states 500-600MB/min in 1080p25 highest quality, that would come to app. 10MB/sec or 80Mb/sec. So, safe to say that the Pentax K-5 & K-5 Mark II record intraframe M-JPEG, not the interframe H.264 MPEG-4 Long GOP garbage, and do so at 80-100Mb/sec bitrate in top-notch quality. In Medium quality, the bitrate drops to 60Mbit/sec to 77Mb/sec. BTW, the M-JPEG is an intraframe and fixed bitrate codec, is it not?
Now for the bad news.... shutter speed cannot be adjusted in video mode, according to the Pentax chap it is always 1/25th of a second in 1080p video. So, that's not good at all, you would want 1/50th of a second obviously, otherwise you'll have way too much motion blurring. The iris can be set manually, but cannot be changed during actual recording. ISO cannot be set in video mode. Audio level also cannot be set in video mode.
So, other than setting the iris and then have the camera adjust ISO automatically, there is not much one seem to be able to do in video mode by way of creative control, be it the K-5 or K-5 Mark II. Surprised to see that these cameras do not even sport a separate video START/STOP button, especially surprising with the K-5II. I am particularly bothered by the slow shutter speed of only 1/25th of a second at all times whilst shooting 25p video. Re. the 25p 25 frame-per-second frame rate, that is pretty weird, too. Japan is 60 Hertz, so they do not use 25p any more there than we do in North America. Maybe the K-5 video was meant only for the European 50 hertz PAL markets? Over here, we would need 24p film rate or 30p television refresh rate.
Finally, re. K-01, it records video in H.264 interframe Long GOP, that is not something I want to get into at all.
Francis, I think that if you are primarily interested in video that you wouldn't pick Pentax DSLR's as it is clear from the reviews that they aren't really state of the art as compared to Canon and Nikon and the mirrorless offerings from Sony, Panasonic, or perhaps even Olympus. That said, there have been developed some tricks that allow one to bypass some of the limitations as to not allowing ISO sensitivity to change during a video clip and forcing a desired exposure time that you will find if you search this forum or other locations on the Internet, and it (and the preceding K-7 model) have been used to successfully record very good movies.
differences; and the very low price of the K-5 just reflects its end-of-model-cycle pricing stage as compared to just recently announced and available for sale model(s). If you want to buy the new models for about $1000 then just wait about six months to just after a new 24 MP model Pentax DSLR is introduced that may have many of the video features that you are looking for, although that model will certainly be introduced at a premium price. Just for comparison's sake, the K-5 had a introduction price of $1600 so a new 24 MP DSLR model is likely to be introduced at a price at least that high. As to video performance, both the older K-5 and the newer 'II' models have the same sensor and the same hardware imaging engine, the PRIME2, which contains the video codecs, so the video performance will remain exactly the same.areAs to the price difference between the K-5 and the K-5 II(s), the new model(s) bring a few new features as in an improved LCD monitor, a very much improved Auto Focus module, as well as the non Anti-Aliasing (AA) filter option of the 's' model so there
for non-worse-case as to detail scenes. The rate will go to the highest rate if there is enough high-contrast detail to require it.typical usevalues and those depend on video content. The values that Pentax gives are maximum rates at which storage will fill whereas the rates given in reviews that actually measure it are for average values and then there are maximum As to video bit rates, there are

When Death Grips "chose not to arrive in Chicago" for their scheduled set at Lollapalooza 2013, it led to outrage in comments sections, on Twitter, and in real life: Patrons at Chicago's Bottom Lounge got violent when it became clear the band wouldn't be performing at the official Lollapalooza after-show party for which they had been booked. Instead of Zach Hill and Stefan "MC Ride" Burnett, attendees were presented with nothing more than some pre-recorded music and the projection of a suicide note onto a stage populated only by an unmanned drum kit. That drum kit was promptly destroyed by the furious crowd. It was an apoplectic outpouring perhaps not commensurate with the offense. As Gary Suarez of The Quietus tweeted in response:
A band pulling a no-show shouldn't be a news event. Says a lot for the sorry state of American music that we value politeness.
It didn't end there, though: Along with the announcement that Death Grips were canceling additional tour dates, it was revealed that the experience provided to those in attendance at the Bottom Lounge was exactly the show Hill and Burnet intended — and was exactly the show they would be taking on the road. They hadn't bailed on the gig; they had envisioned the gig as an experience at which a live band or physical representation thereof was totally unnecessary. Even the the equipment left behind for fans to demolish was part of the act — according to DNAinfo, it was merely "a child's learning drum kit."
"There wasn't really a show at all," wrote Vanyaland's Michael Marotta, following the cancelation of last night's Death Grips gig at Boston's Royale. "Not only would Death Grips not be performing, but they wouldn't even be at the venue. Or in the city."
Of course, Death Grips have always been a dick in the eye of the music industry: canceling an entire tour without informing promoters; signing to Epic only to soon thereafter take shots at the label via Twitter, release an album without the label's approval, publicly share confidential emails from label reps expressing dissatisfaction with the the band's actions, and finally, be dropped by the label. No one should be shocked by this most recent turn: Death Grips have made a career of confounding expectations, of conflating acts of rebellion with publicity stunts; there was no band in contemporary popular music more likely to repurpose their tour as a defiant set of performance art presentations — or, more accurately, non-performance art presentations.
But Suarez's aforementioned observation is an apt one, and while Death Grips certainly seem to have crossed a line, it's difficult to distinguish exactly where that line is drawn. From Sid Vicious to Beyonce, we've more or less done away with the notion that the performer on stage must be the immediate source of the music we're hearing in the room. Only two weeks prior to the Lolla debacle (and in the same city), Lil B "played the most purely enjoyable set of [Pitchfork Festival]," wrote Jon Caramanica of the New York Times, "rapping over recorded tracks." Musicians frequently take the stage much later than their scheduled set time, or leave the stage much earlier than expected. Fiona Apple famously stormed off the stage at Manhattan's Roseland Ballroom — crying, accusing, apologizing — because she was unhappy with the sound in the room. The Replacements were notoriously, shall we say, unpredictable. "Frequently, the band was barely able to stand up, let alone play," wrote Stephen Thomas Erlewine at Allmusic, "and when they did play, they often didn't finish their songs."
Even willful antagonism (or seemingly willful antagonism) is relatively commonplace in live music. To name a few recent-ish examples:
- In 2008, Smashing Pumpkins did a tour whose setlist regularly comprised "a two and a half hour show that mostly emphasized new material, generally avoided old classics, and included at least 40 minutes of formless prog-metal dirges and artless, atonal drones."
- In 2009, after 32 years, Throbbing Gristle put on their first-ever NYC show, which opened with an hourlong set wherein the band played their score for Derek Jarman's 1980 film, In The Shadow Of The Sun, followed by "a painfully long merch signing session," and then another hourlong set, which reportedly "unfolded slowly, with the tantalizing prospect that the lights would be turned off at any moment. (They weren't, much to the chagrin of everyone)."
- During a 2012 Atlas Sound show, Bradford Cox responded to an audience member's suggestion that the band play the Knack's "My Sharona" by playing "My Sharona" … for an hour.
- This past June, at Minnesota's Rock The Garden festival — opening for Silversun Pickups and Metric, outdoors, in the rain — Low played "a 30-minute version of the stormy drone epic 'Do You Know How To Waltz?'"
But at least all those bands actually played. Twenty years ago last month — and also at Lollapalooza, coincidentally — Rage Against The Machine "stood naked onstage in front of thousands of revelers at the event in Philadelphia before walking away without playing a note of music … to protest against bosses of the Parents Music Resource Center, who were calling for a ban on explicit content in music." Rage were pelted with coins while they stood there naked — a peril of actually being present while refusing to play. Death Grips are much less likely to be injured by a shower of tweets.
As Judas moments go, it's probably accurate to say that Death Grips' stunt (or statement?) is unprecedented, but is that not itself a worthy achievement? Isn't crossing the line something to be admired in a musical culture that often seems to be content playing by the rules? Isn't that what we expect of artists, and more importantly, what we need from them?
I'm reminded here somewhat of the massively influential Serbian performance artist Marina Abramović, whose work has ranged from 1973′s Rhythm 10 — in which she "set out to explore the physical and mental limitations of the body" by more or less ritually cutting her hand to pieces — to 2010′s The Artist Is Present — in which "she sat immobile in the museum's atrium while spectators were invited to take turns sitting opposite her."
Most recently, Abramović appeared in Jay-Z's "Picasso Baby" video. Apparently she was the inspiration for that project. "Concerts are pretty much performance art," said Jay, describing his relationship to Abramović. But here, he's still playing by the #oldrules; he's really no more than a distant cousin to Abramović. Death Grips are her children.

As fans of a band, or any artist of any medium we deserve nothing. An artist can be on hiatus for a decade, and promise year after year, new material is coming out soon. They have no obligation to deliver on it. At all. As I said the signing of a contract with a venue does change things, but, they essentially followed the contract. They played, its just they played in a manner that the venue didnt even consider.
I think its a mistake to feel like artists owe us something. I want Damien Rice to record a follow up to 9, but he doesnt owe me or any of his fans a new album. Nor does he owe fans any concerts.
And beyond that, as I said, the bands entire MO can essentially be boiled down to this performance art piece. If you are a fan of DG, then you should be aware and cognizent of their entire way of being since 2011.
Its like going to see Tool, and expecting them to play songs that YOU want to hear. I mean seriously. You follow and are a fan of Tool, yet, you get pissed when they dont play songs you want? You know anything about how Tool has operated since, oh, I dont know, 1992?
It seems to me that Death Grips succeeded very well in making a point about how quickly supposed "fans" can turn on an artist if the artist upsets the expectations of fandom/ consumerism.

Looks like they went for generic resale-able. How exactly would you use the black and gold color scheme? |
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 9:30
I don't think I could go with that combo even if I tried to come up with some 2000s version of it. I am really surprised they still make that speckled glazed tile. The porcelain I am not that surprised about, because lots of colors get used to make mosaic patterns. I was planning on doing a fairly dark floor, and an actual colored tile for the walls anyway, so I guess that's more in line with the 1960s than white subway. The smaller bath will probably be mostly white anyway because I like white bathrooms. The gold and black bathroom must have been pretty dark because it's small and their is no window. In a larger bathroom with a window, maybe a yellow with black deco style bathroom would be nice, but that's not the era of this house either. |
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 10:11
Here is an original bathroom in one of the houses. I think the floor is a little harsh looking and I don't care for that bathtub, but if everything was in good shape. I might keep it essentially intact. |
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 10:18
Here is a bath in one of the houses. It has just come on the market. This is a very popular bath style where I live, and for what it is, it is done well, but it doesn't seem to quite fit in the house. It's too elaborate for what the rest of the house looks like, in my opinion: The right answer is probably somewhere in between. Don't go for time capsule like the blue one, but don't go for what is so current like the other. |
- Posted by melle_sacto (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 12:10
Our house isn't THAT old (34 years?) but is generic enough that anything works; we put a charcoal gray floor in the main bathroom, which was a huge divergence from the yellow-beige faux tile vinyl that was there before. The dark floor has been such a change, sometimes I'm not sure it was a good idea. I like it a lot, but it is very very different. I think a dark floor is nice in the bathroom, it feels luxurious. Since a bathroom is smaller (at least ours is pretty small) the extra cleaning isn't so bad. I kind of like that speckled tile from the 'old' finish in your bathroom, but it probably looks dated. I know a lot of people who don't like things that look old and dated. Some old and dated is just dated, but some is classic. The easiest way for me to tell if something is classic is to look at old photos; anything that looks like it could be stylish today, to me at least, is classic. Your blue bathroom is amazingly intact! The floor looks like a crossword puzzle to me, I agree that it's a bit much. I think that is a LOT of blue tile! I like that the walls all have tile as well as the surround -- easy for cleaning. That's what we're putting up in our bathroom (tile on all the walls) but we're using large format, white rectangular tiles. I don't like the white lid on the blue toilet, makes the toilet and the toilet paper jump out like a focal point! The ridges on the bathtub are interesting. I bet you could make it work, but probably with a different floor and a nicer paint color (white looks kind of harsh). |

Oh I missed your second post w/the updated bathroom in another home. I agree with you, extreme styles -- in ANY direction -- are often not a classic choice. I don't care much for "tuscan" style...seems heavy and over-elaborate. I see that kind of thing happening in our neighborhood of starter homes. Someone comes in, refurbs the house (which probably needed it, I know ours did when we moved in but we've taken 14 years to get through it LOL) and goes with whatever is currently popular. Lots of people like "new" and "currently popular" so it's a safe gamble I guess. My sister-in-law paid a lot of extra money to buy a house that was fully updated w/the tuscan style -- inside and out -- including the furnishings. She says that it's NOT her style, but it looked nicely done and she felt like it meant she wouldn't have to put a lot of work into the house. Edit -- > I wanted to add that for people who are not decorators, or who are intimidated by making the millions of little decorating choices that need to all come together, it's probably nice to buy a home that has "instant style". I guess I'm too picky, if the instant style is not appealing to me then there is only a slim chance it will grow on me. But it must be effective because it's what sells the homes. I recently saw an example of something I've read about here -- installing new granite on old, shoddy cabinets. Yep, the cabinets were particle board w/wood-grain paper on them, just like ours had been. Maybe those cabinets were not falling apart like ours had been...who knows. But, to me, knowing that they were old and crummy cabs w/the new granite...seemed so dumb. But someone will come along and go "oooooh, granite countertops" and totally not notice the cabinets. |

We had to gut the original bathrooms in our late 50's house. They had the typical color schemes of the time. One was maroon and pink-- the other very, very yellow. I didn't want to recreate the in-your-face color schemes in the old baths, but I couldn't see doing the neutral thing either. So I tried to bring in some color in a more modern way (and with colors more to my liking) with the floor tiles. I think of our bathrooms as updated rooms that still fit the character of the house. |
- Posted by AnnieDeighnaugh (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 18:43
Love that blue bath...if it had a blue toilet seat....I agree the floor is not the best...better a blue and white small square tile. The tuscan bath is awful....I think I know you well enough not to go there. I could easily do a bath in black white and gold with the speckle...it's getting old enough now to be retro, but I'm sure your tastes would put you somehwere more historic.... |
- Posted by mtnrdredux (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 18:48
I can see using the gold and white speckle with white ... might be interesting. It's funny how the square tiles set like a grid say MCM to me. I felt so "wild" getting square tiles for one of my new beachhouse bathrooms, but I still had to set it running bond. |
The bathroom you posted at 10:18 am looks dated. That style was popular in the 1990s. It's The Neverending Story, Bathroom Edition. |
sas95, love the tile around the tub!! What color is the accent tile? Looks great! |
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Wed, May 7, 14 at 19:28
sas95, If you look at the Kohler color timeline, the 1950s have a color called Spruce Green and another color called Argent. Your bath seems to have a cross between the two, so it is effective kswl, I guess the style has been around a while, but I know someone who bought a house built in 2011 that has bathrooms just like that. It's not something that I would do in a house of this sort, but it is the sort of "new" bathroom I see a lot around here. Variation a) is white subway tile, and variation b) is something tan or brown. This is in the ceiling above the three year old bathroom, btw, and why I am gutting. Fan connected to nothing. Wiring all over including some splices not even in boxes. Out of frame to the left, a soda bottle. My carpenter tells me this sort of thing is Extremely common here because most renovation is completely without permits. |
Ineffablespace, thanks for the reference to the Kohler color timeline. New to me, and very cool. Unbelievable that that's a three year old bathroom. Linelle, thanks! The accent tiles are sort of a deep blue green mottled pattern. Hard to really capture it accurately in a photo. |

The best bet is to stay away from anything with a definite color, especially the 'color of the moment', since *color* seems to be the biggest issue re:dated. Grays are 'on trend' at the moment, and although I may like it, wouldn't use it if I wanted staying power. As boring as tans, whites, off-whites are, I would play it safe, but that's just me. And border tiles, nix that one, kitchen or bath, again, just me. |
I think if you go with something you like you don't have to worry about dated or whether your color is of the moment. Because you are enjoying living with it. I played it "safe" in my other bath and after 3 years I don't like it half as much as this one. There are a lot of choices in my house that are quite taste specific, but the good thing is it's my forever home and if I do have to sell, well, it won't make or break me. If whites, off whites, etc. are what you like, that's great. If it's not what you like, it's sad to feel compelled to stick with them because it's "safe." |
I'm with AnnieDeighnaugh on this one. I'd like the blue one a lot more with a better floor and bathroom cabinets instead of the sink that's in there now. I'm toying with going vintage with one of our bathrooms in our 1959 house when the time comes. The only thing that's right in there is that the lights come on when you flip the switch. I think it might be kind of cool, like a friend's place whose bathroom was remodeled in the 1910s and left alone after that, only 40 years newer. |

Oh, I would take the blue bathroom in a heartbeat.vs. the 90's travertine one. All it needs is a blue seat. It's in fabulous condition and would look great in our home. The floor pattern was a popular pattern of that time. Some people like that mosaic pattern while others do not. We have Memoirs toilets in our baths, but we need sinks with storage below. Love the Memoirs pedestal sinks, though. |

I think it is safe to go with an actual color for tile and even for fixtures, because the original bathrooms in these houses had either or both. Nobody makes a full line of fixtures in colors except Kohler, and they dropped the two closest to "period" colors: Sunlight (pale yellow) and Skylight (pale blue) in 2012. So the closest to what appeared in these houses would be something grey. So grey may be of the moment, but it also has historical context. Here's another survivor, not so attractive really, just showing that gray was also original. I don't really get the combination in this bathroom, because white fixtures would have probably worked better. |
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Thu, May 8, 14 at 13:49
Here is *another Newer bathroom in one of the houses on the market. Brown again. It's very popular here to do some sort of earthy looking brown tile. Yes, I look at every single one of the houses in the development that comes up for sale and save a lot of the real estate photos. I don't really like this sort of look myself, but if I was doing it I think it would look better with something other than white fixtures as well. |
- Posted by patty_cakes (My Page) on Thu, May 8, 14 at 19:10
Sas95, that's very subjective as 'what you like' could become dated/color trendy~things change in the home decor business almost on a daily basis. Your bath is beautifully done and I can see how it relates to your 50's home, updated, but since it's in keeping with the style of the home, will probably never *become* dated per se. Sometimes people don't feel they've achieved an update if the space isn't 'done up' with the latest in tile and such, and that's when it would be better to just play it safe and do all white. Subway tile will never lose it's glory, IMO. And I have to say i'm surprised, but I love the beautiful vintage blue bathroom! |

Hey everybody I just had a general question about my False indigo plant.i attached a picture of the plant itself and what I don't know what's going on if you could please comenten leave any suggestions thank you very much. The leaves are turning black |
Follow-Up Postings:
What follows is from the Kentucky extension service. These moths devastated my two baptisias last year - I cut them to the ground and to my surprise they have come back just fine. Genista caterpillar larvae (nocturnal moths) lay their eggs in spring; they hatch begin feeding on the tender new baptisia plant growth. The larvae work fast and can completely strip the foliage of a mature baptisia in a few days...fortunately, this shouldn't cause permanent damage to the plant. The larvae have 5 stages before they pupate for overwintering. Since the moths are quite prolific, they can actually lay several generations of eggs each year, so you'll need to monitor your baptisias all summer. When the caterpillars are young they can be easily killed with organic BT (Bacillus huringensis) products. |
- Posted by TexasRanger10 7 (My Page) on Mon, Jun 9, 14 at 18:20
Seems like you would see chewed leaves if caterpillars were working on it. When any plant has leaves turning yellow then black I always suspect too much water or poor drainage. If you are over watering or getting lots of rain that could be the cause. They do like moist soil but again, too much water is a problem. If its drainage issues, the roots could be suffocating/drowning from lack of oxygen. Often an overwatered plant looks like it needs more water because the leaves wilt just like when a plant is too dry so it can be confusing what to do. |

Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band, Let It Be, Come Together, Hey Jude and more), this adoring tribute will take you back to a time when all you needed was love, and a little help from your friends!

Airbrush tanning performed by hand. Teeth whitening with hydrogen-peroxide gel. Stainless steel or titanium body piercing. Tattooing by an experienced artist who specializes in black-and-white realism. At Bella Bronze, the team's talents reach beyond typical salon offerings. They welcome patrons into their hygienic but comfortable environs, custom designing realistic-looking tattoos or outfitting bodies with natural tans that eschew the common streaking ingredient found in most spray tans—tears from an orange.
Those seeking a sun-kissed look choose from two options at Copper Bottom Tanning Salon. They can recline in tanning beds, where UV rays draw out stores of melatonin as fans provide a cooling breeze, or forego tanning beds' bulbs for a Pura Sunless spray tan, which mists skin with color that can last up to a week.
Master cosmetologist and salon owner Manisha Mehta takes pride in delivering a sweeping range of beauty and grooming services infused with luxurious touches. Full-length facials incorporate rich ingredients such as 24-karat gold or chocolate, and facial peels immerse visages in fruit and vegetable medleys without the need for surreptitious head dunks into a punch bowl. Issuing from Mehta's fervent interest in the healing and restorative powers of herbs, most full facials are accompanied by a custom aromatherapy blend. Alongside eyelash extensions and waxing are ancient Eastern grooming services, such as eyebrow threading, ear candling, mummification, and henna designs for hands and feet. Dark wood and leather furnishings, deep-maroon walls, and gilt-framed mirrors and paintings lend the space a feeling of an urban retreat.
Banana Beach Tan wants to darken the world?by making it shine with the brilliance of a beautiful bronze glow. The tanning center helps clients acquire natural-looking tans gradually through the use of beds or in an instant through the use of advanced spray-tan technology. During UV-tanning sessions, clients relax in beds by Matrix or Alpha. Inside the Mystic tanning or Versa Pro booth, patented jets evenly coat the skin with a solution designed to leave a natural-looking glow. And from within the comforts of the Pure Collagen booth, red light therapy restores cellular activity and skin elasticity.

I'm afraid the rhododendron we planted in 2001 in the front (southeast) corner of the house is gone; the harsh winter in 2004-05 seems to have done it in, and it didn't come back in summer 2005 or 2006, though I don't know if that was even possible. The area receives only partial sun, and I think it may have gotten too much wind and snow (it's on the front corner of the house). In the same bed as this former rhodo we have otto luyken laurels, blue maid hollies and pink carpet rose.
Any recommendations for a hardy replacement for that spot? The location is one of the "anchors" of our landscaping. On the two other visible corners we have a wonderful set of roses and a blue hydrangea. The vacant area is an ellipse approximately 5' at one radius and 7' at the other radius, for a total of about 28 ft. sq. in available area: http://www.fillio.com/photo/showimg.php?file=/Da House/Landscaping/june2006_2.JPG
Follow-Up Postings:
What kind of Rhododendron? Most are very hardy and almost impossible to kill with cold. Good to -20 or -35. Your Laurels are only good to about 0 or -10 if not prolonged. You might want to consider the drainage in that area before planting something else. |

Receive weekly doses of soulful inspiration + my Manifesto for the Extraordinary & Soulful Woman
Welcome, gorgeous woman!
Do you ever catch yourself wondering…
"Will I ever lose weight and feel good in my body?"
"Why do I always seem to hit the same walls again and again?"
"Is this really all there is to life? I desire so much more…"
"Why can't I stick with a wellness plan long-term? What's my problem?
Then you, soulful one, are in precisely the right place.
In fact, whether you realize it in this moment or not,
you've come home.
I know you.
You're a fiercely ambitious business owner or career maven with the world at her feet.
But, deep in your soul, you know something big is missing. (And you've been feeling that way for a while.) You're ready for a shift with clarity and direction… but you can't put your finger on what that means.
You want to feel amazing in your body and want to do it in a way that doesn't feel hard, restrictive and soul crushing.
You've tried the traditional methods and now you crave more, you crave a soulful approach.
A big problem is your fast-paced lifestyle is taking its toll on your health.
Maybe you skip breakfast, and grab whatever you can for lunch – even fast food. You'll work out later right?
The extra little jolt of sugar or caffeine to get you through the day will be fine.
Dinner? Hmmm, maybe tonight, you'll treat yourself out (again). You deserve it!
Month after month you're adding a couple of pounds here and there and your body forgets what it's like to MOVE. Now you've begun noticing some aches, fatigue and brain fog and maybe more.
How do you have it all… if you aren't giving it your all because you don't have any more to give?
Where do you start?
If you're depriving yourself of the food that fuels you, & the simple steps that make you feel good…
How else are you depriving yourself? In your business? Your bank account? Your bliss?
But never fear, my dear. The road to changing all of that begins right here, right now.
As an Intuitive Wellness Expert, I use a high-power combination of practical + soul work to help you get to the bottom of what you desire, and create a plan of action you'll actually act on.
If you're ready to map out a road to seeing all your big goals realized - one that's a perfect fit for YOU, your body, and the lifestyle you really want, let's talk.

Rick Perlstein has written a phenomenal account of, largely, the years between 1964 and 1972. Why those years? Because in '64, LBJ won the election with about 62% of the vote, a crushing margin. Just eight years later, Nixon did the same thing - for, of course, the other party. What happened in those eight years to switch the national sentiment?Lots of things, and while many of them have to do with the changing world (Vietnam, Civil Rights), many others were the direct result of Nixon style politics (which, Perlstein and others charge, create a different world, aka Nixonland.)What's fascinating about the book is how many details a casual observer (or relative youngster) forget - that Watergate broke BEFORE the '72 election, for example.What's haunting is that you could replace the names from this book with a slew of real people from today's political world and it would read like an analysis of today's politics. And what's sad is when you see people decrying the state of politics for the same reasons they are talking about today. At least one way to read this book (and it seems to be Perlstein's way, based on the last sentence of the book) is that not much has changed, and we are still living in Nixonland.Truly an important, impressive book and well worth your time.

Jaguars were always chockablock with gauges-panels of toggles and big black dials that deliberately led one to imagine that one was firing up an Avro Lancaster for a midnight bombing raid. With just a speedo, a tach, and a fuel gauge, the 2007 XK runs contra to this tradition of more instruments, not fewer, each one capable of relaying the information that all is well along with all of the minute and drastic variations thereof, any one of which may indicate at any time that all is less than well, and indeed that a crash landing might be in one's near future. Today, idiot lights handle the chores, and when they go off-should they go off, which is statistically less likely than in the past-it will usually be too late.
Car manufacturing is a different ballgame than it used to be. Many companies share suppliers, drawing from the same palettes of components and add-on gizmos of the electric and chip-driven variety. Jaguar has availed itself liberally of the good stuff that's out there-touch-screen controls and onboard data center, adaptive cruise control, parking sensors, automatic lights (with bixenon, optionally active headlamps) and wipers. But this time it has demanded higher quality. So while one's natural knee-jerk inclination would be to doubt the reliability and worthiness of the equipment like anything else British and electrical, we come away from our two days with the XK convinced that a conscious effort was made to get them right.
They are not unlike the XK convertible's roof, which takes but eighteen seconds to raise or lower and fits neatly under a hinged aluminum lid. This sleek metal tonneau relegates the old folded top's vision-cheating bustle to memory. It is better trimmed on the inside, triple-layered, quieter, and altogether more luxurious. When lowered, wind noise is less intrusive, with a noticeable reduction in buffeting. Where conversation pretty much hit the wall in the old car at 80 mph, I was able to bore my passenger at speeds well over 100 mph without raising my voice.
Jaguar defends its decision to forego a metal folding roof by noting that such a device would add weight and complexity while eliminating what is already minimal luggage space (although the coupe's trunk is reasonable) and, heaven forfend, the plus-two rear seating. Meaning you'd have to leave your dead or sedated friends and relations at home.
The hefty handbrake pull, another Jaguar signifier of half a century's duration, is no more. In its place, a discreet, electronically actuated chrome lever on the console. A parking brake, yes, but a brake that can no longer be utilized in emergencies or car-control exercises. While you can't help out by tugging on the handbrake, times being what they are, all four brakes will work for you under the guidance of a computer to provide helpful things such as four-channel ABS, traction control, and stability control. A sportier DSC setting may be selected by he-man drivers to permit more sideways slip before the nanny starts driving for you.

This recipe is delicous. But I did have the same problem of it not being thick enough so added a 1/4 cup of chia seeds worked greay
It was my first time making this and it was really easy. It wasn't as simple as just peeling the skins off the beets though like it says, but perhaps they needed a couple of minutes longer in the oven. I found it was quite runny, but I used a slotted ladle towards the end so I had a nice mixture of juice and chutney. Will be making again. Can't wait to have it on my sandwiches this week! Maybe even with some cheese and biscuits.
Delicious. Goes well with ham & cheese sandwich. Will definitely make sure I always have jars of it in my pantry!
really easy to make. great with steak, kangaroo or with salad. great on sandwich and rolls for lunch
I've just made my first batch and couldn't wait until it cooled. Had it on a sandwich with cold roast pork which was left over from Christmas Day lunch. Delicious! Just the right amount of acidity and sweetness. Will def make this again and recommend it to my friends.
Love this recipe can not keep it up to my family however i did leave out the rosemary due to falling apart and grated the beetroot last time i made it still worked a treat
This was amazing! I found it really simple, however there was two things I found difficult; 1. When you add the rosemary sprigs, the 'leafs' didn't stay on the sprig, and 2. The mixture didn't really "thicken" like the recipe said. I managed to make 4 big jars from this recipe and it looks really good so you could make it a gift, or for a bake sale.
Delicious!! I have used sum of the mixture to make beetroot tarts, or on with salad sandwhiches or with a roast meal ...can be eaten jsut any anyhow! was super easy too...juss chop it all up, throw it in the pot & boil it :)
This is the first time making beetroot chutney and this recipe is an absolute winner!!! I've given it to my partners mates and they have eaten their jars of chutney already and are waiting on my next batch! Super easy to make and the taste is amazing!
Oh n I used two brown onions and one red onion just to mix it up a bit
so easy and so yummy....
What a yummy chutney. I changed a few ingredients based on what I had on hand so used brown sugar instead of raw, apple juice instead of orange, a red onion instead of brown and malt vinegar instead of balsamic. Turned out great, will be serving it with a lamb roast.
An absolutely great recipe!As a vegetarian I am not using it to put on meat but have been adding it as a relish in cheese/salad sandwhiches and it is GREAT!!
Have never made chutney before and I made this beauty for a family gathering to go with weber beef and it was an absolute hit. The best review was from my brother in law, who is a chef, when I gave him a jar he asked for the recipe as he said it was the 'best he'd tasted'.. Delicious
I adapted this recipe to suit an Indian meal.... it was a hit. I added one red chilli, replaced the Rosemary with garam masala (1tsp), and used apple mango juice instead of orange juice.
Absolutely delicious. We used a few home grown beets so our batch was very small & had to adjust the recipe accordingly but we kept everything in proportion so it was still fantastic! Looking forward to harvesting more beets next time for a bigger batch. Was great with ham & salad sandwiches, as a side to Spanakopita (using the beetroot leaves in place of the silverbeet!) & as a topping on our beef burritos.
Love the recipe. I'm interested to know what I can do with the beetroot leaves other than feed them to the worm farm. They have the lovely look of red chard and I'm wondering if they can be used in any recipe asking for that as an ingredient.
My guess is 'yes'. I've read in a few places that beetroot leaves can be used in place of silverbeet in recipes and chard is just a variety of silverbeet. It was delicious in the spanakopita & gave it a slightly pink tinge.
This chutney was great! Everyone who got a jar wanted more!!!
Made this using our home grown beetroots and it is just delicious. Makes more than enough to hand out to family and friends and great for people with tomato allergies that can't tolerate tomato chutney. Will definitely be making it again.
Completely agree with the previous comment - this chutney is utterly delicious. Super easy to make and the taste is just amazing.
This is the most delicious chutney I have ever made or tasted. it has a great wow factor when you put it into your mouth. Great with cold meats of any kind. And so easy to make.

These educational social enterprises speak to one of the core tenets of the "Social Business Principles" that we outline on our About Us page. Principle number one is: "Purpose is to solve a social issue; eradicate it. Social issues are those that relate to poverty, health, education and human rights."
But you don't need me (or anyone) to tell you the importance of education. Browse through this innovative list and you'll come across people around the globe. From celeb chef apprenticeship programs like Jamie Oliver's famed Fifteen restaurants to youth-oriented finance initiatives like Lily Lapenna's MyBnk, educational social enterprises tend to stray away from the traditional classroom and work toward creating alternative ways for students to learn and reach their full potential—in whatever capacity or industry that may be.

What has seemed to happened to our Alternate Reality...
, 26th May 2011 at 08:55 PM (390 Views)
I believe that our traveling back in time caused a paradox. A paradox that time took as it's duty to correct. As such, it collapsed onto this current timeline and merged in the form of our memories of the paradox. Forget all that has happened, for it has never happened.

Nobel Laureate Desmond Tutu has long been admired for the heroism and grace he exhibited while encouraging countless South Africans in their struggle for human rights. In God Has a Dream, Tutu shares the spiritual message that guided him through those troubled times. Drawing on personal and historical examples, Archbishop Tutu reaches out to readers of all religious backgrounds, showing how individual and global suffering can be transformed into joy and redemption. With his characteristic humor, Tutu urges students to engage with the world around them as well as to examine their own values and beliefs.
Echoing the words of Martin Luther King, Jr., he writes, "God says to you, 'I have a dream. Please help me to realize it. It is a dream of a world whose ugliness and squalor and poverty, its war and hostility, its greed and harsh competitiveness, its alienation and disharmony are changed into their glorious counterparts. When there will be more laughter, joy, and peace, where there will be justice and goodness and compassion and love and caring and sharing. I have a dream that my children will know that they are members of one family, the human family, God's family, my family.'"
Addressing timeless and universal concerns--justice, human rights, faith--God Has a Dream is a valuable addition to any discussion of global culture or personal and collective ethics.
"Desmond Tutu shows each of us how to transform our pain and sorrow into hope and confidence in the future. Whether you are the head of a country or the head of a household, you will cherish his words."
–Nelson Mandela, former president of South Africa and Nobel Peace Prize recipient
"Archbishop Desmond Tutu, like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. before him, has offered us a luminous vision of love and hope. God Has a Dream shows us how our personal and global suffering can be transformed into joy and redemption. With his great warmth and compassion, Archbishop Tutu offers a spiritual message that if heeded can change lives as well as history."
–Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States and Nobel Peace Prize recipient
"Like Desmond Tutu's life, this book is a testament to the power of faith and optimism in human affairs."
–Senator George J. Mitchell

Since I've disappointed myself by rendering something that's already existed, here I present to you the truck version of the XC90, the XT90.
I love the bomb-proof Volvo 240. And so I thought why not make a pickup out of it. After rendering these though, I found out there are already some custom 240 Pickups.
I intended to render a Volvo coupe SUV to rival that of the BMW X6. Unfortunately it looks anything but a coupe.
Three days ago I posted a chopped Volvo Concept Shooting Brake by merging the Volvo Concept Coupe and Volvo Concept XC. Then earlier Volvo released a few teaser shots of their new concept to be unveiled in March's Geneva Auto Show. Guess what? It is a shooting brake! Hmm…
Another set of "what if" renderings. What if Volvo made an Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf rival back in the 90s?
Motor Authority reported that Volvo is planning to replace the C70 with a folding hardtop base on the architecture and styling of the popular Concept Coupe. Please bring back RWD Volvos.
A quick one. Received many requests to "productionise" the Volvo Concept Coupe. Instead, I converted the coupe into a sedan.
I've always wanted to render a truck version of the XC90. Finally…
According to Autocar, Volvo boss Stefan Jacoby has spoken of his desire for the firm to create a rival to the Mini and Audi A1. This is my quick impression of Volvo's premium mini.
This is the 3-door version of the V40. It could potentially replace the unsuccessful C30. I've lowered the side shoulder, and also the DLO. At the rear, I've revised the shape of the hatch. Do check out my previous rendering of the V40-bsed S40 sedan.

(( Well...I guess we'll never know what happens at the end ))
((I was waiting on Dojel.))
((Sorry for being AFK people, had a nasty case of flu- Stuck in bed kind nasty- and then the website decides to act retarded...)) Dojel picked up enough of the conversation between Rothus and Yoshi to decide to cover him. He looks for the third guy, which they completely seemed to forget about.
INNER HALLWAY The three guards who had been shot in the chest (and had healed) and the guard that had been kicked over advance on Rothus as he sticks his hand in a magical field of electricity. Seven guards stand between Rothus and his two allies behind Yoshi's barrier. Vladik's Office Vladik started to open a portal to Bilgewater. To his left was a large crystal resting on his desk that literally hummed with energy and was rapidly changing colors. Vladik wanted to take it with him, but the energy in the gem was making creating the gateway difficult. The door opened behind him, but he paid no mind. His guards had likely walked into his trap he set for them. No loose ends.
Heh... Dojel took a greenish bottle from his coat, bounced it on his hand a time or two, and then... Hey! Zealot Bastards! Flung it at the group engaging on Rothus
Rothus' arm shut down from the combination of magic and electricity. "Wot tha? Oh bloody 'ell...." He then noticed the guards and Dojel. He activated his helmet, whipped out a pistol with his left hand, and shot the bottle when it came over the guards.
Éclair sighs and says to Rothus, while staying behind a cover " I am tired of this already, should i get serious? "
Rothus responded, "Oh no.... I wouldn't want you to get hurt... Unless of course your able to get rid of this barrier while me and Doj get rid of these lunkheads."
Éclair chuckles " No, I was thinking the exact opposite. You get the barrier down while I have my fun with those soldiers. "
Rothus smiles "Alright! Tag out!" He pulls attention toward disabling the barrier, trusting Éclair to take his place in battling the soldiers.

For the greater part of two years, I've been toying with various ideas for running podcasts. Fast forward to now, and everyone plus their mother is doing a running podcast.
I didn't want to simply find a guest, interview them and voila, podcast. Instead, I took a different route, quite literally.
I have started to utilize my 45 minute walk from our apartment in South Boston to Marathon Sports on Boylston Street. So, I went for it, and recorded about 30 minutes of discussion on a few topics.
- What happens as a coach when your athlete has a bad race?
- How did I realize where I went wrong and how do I correct it?
- Which turned into a discussion on lots of different types of hill training.
The topics jump around and there is plenty of background noise. But, this is the way I think, and this is how I ruminate on topics in endurance training on a daily basis.
Take a listen, and let me know what you think, love it or hate it.
