SA's Balco makes hay on rising prices due to US dry
- From: The Advertiser
- November 09, 2012
THE world's growing demand for food is making the future look particularly rosy for Balaklava hay processor Balco Australia.
Hay from Australian companies such as Balco is helping the world to feed its growing livestock herds.
Balco general manager Rob Lawson said the US drought had helped boost demand for Australian hay, with Balco expecting to lift its production by 15 to 20 per cent this year.
"In a way we are fortunate because in a world market where the US has suffered a lot of damaged hay there is a real niche in the world market for us to fill this void," Mr Lawson said.
"The prices are the best they've been for farmers since the export hay industry started 25 years ago with prices ... averaging $150/tonne to $230/t."
Mr Lawson said with some farmers cutting 7 tonnes to 7.5 tonnes of hay per hectare, they could earn at least as much, if not more, than they would from growing grain.
Balco will ship about 140,000 tonnes of hay with an export value worth more than $50 million from South Australia and Western Australia this season with about 100,000 tonnes of it from SA.
But the best may yet be to come with Mr Lawson predicting rapid growth in hay shipments to China with the market for Australian hay going from 20,000 tonnes last year to 40,000-50,000 tonnes this year.
"One of the exciting things is the Chinese market is opening up for Australian hay and it is likely to equal all our other markets put together in four or five years," he said.
"The Americans got in before us and have gone from nothing to 400,000 tonnes of alfalfa hay in five years, shifting from low prices to levels just short of the premium Japanese prices."
Mr Lawson said China was increasing its dairy herd from 14 million cows to 22 million cows to produce more milk products to feed its huge population.
"Agriculturally, we were very lucky that we didn't have any really hot weather in September and October, but the dry weather has significantly reduced our hay yields," he said.
"It means the quality of our hay is magnificent and we have also been a bit smarter in how we have procured it and we have done very well in buying more in WA."
Mr Lawson said Balco also wanted to encourage people to grow more hay because the world demand was so good and it was a good sustainable industry for SA with excellent growth prospects.
About 300,000 to 350,000 tonnes of hay worth $100 million to $150 million in export income is exported from SA each year, about half the national output, to feed mainly dairy and beef cattle, but also sheep and other livestock as world demand for meat and milk grows.
Mr Lawson said the hay was exported (in containers) to a range of countries including stable markets in Japan, Korea and Taiwan and fast-growing markets in China, the Middle East and other parts of Asia.
"We need more farmers to produce hay because the demand could grow by 10 per cent a year for the next 10-15 years," he said.
Balco employs about 75 people and runs a processing plant at Bowmans, near Balaklava, and another at Brookton, 130km southeast of Perth in Western Australia.
Managing director Malcolm May said Balco was focusing on creating more business for the train service that runs up to 29 times a month to either Port Pirie or down to Port Adelaide.
It is planning to expand its rail service of about 25,000 containers annually from its terminal at Bowmans to Port Adelaide and also from Port Pirie by increasing shipments of grain, hay, lead, minerals, wine and frozen food.
Mr May said Balco could win more business by operating seven days a week and had just finalised a joint venture with AMG and Toll Holdings to help it expand.
"We want to become a storage facility for all northern mining and agricultural products so we would handle the goods and deliver them to customers just in time," Mr May said.
He said rail was more efficient than road, and train use could eliminate at least 630 truck movements a week.

Carbondale joins list of Illinois cities and counties calling for statewide fracking moratorium
By Environment Illinois
CARBONDALE, Ill. — In a unanimous decision, the Carbondale City Council passed a resolution calling on the Illinois General Assembly to "enact a moratorium on high-volume horizontal hydraulic fracturing until such time as the health and environmental concerns of the people of Illinois are addressed."
In this decision, Carbondale joins the Illinois towns of Carlyle, Anna and Alto Pass, and Union and Jackson counties in taking action supporting a moratorium, becoming the largest city yet to do so.
Horizontal high-volume hydraulic fracturing is a new technique for extraction of natural gas contained within shale rock. The technique, recently popularized by its controversy and environmental impacts in Ohio, Pennsylvania and elsewhere, involves pumping millions of gallons of freshwater mixed with toxic chemicals into horizontal wells at high pressure to break up shale rock and release natural gas.
"In every state where fracking has occurred, impacts such as severe illness, polluted and depleted drinking water, hazardous waste leaks, earthquakes, explosions and air pollution have come with it — no state has shown that it can be done safely," said Bruce Ratain, a clean energy associate with Environment Illinois.
Though horizontal fracking is still on the cusp of commencing on a large scale in Illinois, the state already has notable scars from traditional vertical fracking, considered less dangerous than new high-volume, high-pressure horizontal fracking. Barb McKasson, chairman of the local Shawnee Group of the Illinois Sierra Club, related one jarring story.
"We started going to counties testing water, and through that process met Steve Combs, who lives in White County," McKasson said. "His life has been ruined by fracking; his health is very poor. Steve had stopped drinking the water from his well, but didn't realize that simply showering in the contaminated water could still make him sick. His neighbors' wells are also affected, and this is just from vertical fracking. The horizontal hydrofracking is 10 to 100 times higher in volume and impact."
Carbondale's decision demonstrated an awareness of fracking's impact in a city often associated with fossil fuel production.
"In Fort Worth, they have frack-pads right next to schools … the council members came to realize that we need more protection than our current zoning laws," said Lynn Waters, a local resident and activist with SAFE (Southern Illinoisans Against Fracking) who addressed the Carbondale City Council.
McKasson, who also spoke at the city council meeting, noted: "This is educating the citizens of Carbondale to realizing that just because they live in the city, they're not immune to the effects of fracking that might occur next door, and it has taken place within cities."
A statewide coalition of groups including Environment Illinois, SAFE and the Sierra Club has been pushing for a statewide moratorium on fracking, presented in S.B. 3280 currently before the state legislature.
Ratain concluded, "Carbondale has taken a stand for public health and the environment; now it's time for Illinois to stand up for them and communities statewide by passing a moratorium."

You don't know what you are talking about. Any Christian that thinks what you say is not a real Christian. God loves everyone, the bible says it. It's just that Christians are humans and sometimes they hate when they should not.

Please just take that judging argument and go drive off a cliff with it.
We who understand are so tired of hearing it. Again, let me explain. I am not judging anyone if what they are doing is called a sin in the bible and I say that out loud. I am not judging anyone if I decide their behavior is sinful according to the bible and I decide to not make them my friends. The scripture you so wonderfully remember in the bible is used incorrectly.
It is basically saying don't be a hypocrite, coming down on someone for a sin you are committing yourself. Get straight yourself and then you can help your brother with his sin.
"Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye."

First of all, everyone knows Rosa Parks did not sit at the front of the bus to stir up trouble. She was a very tired old black woman who didn't want to walk so far. She said that herself. The movement used her to make a valid point.
Racisim isn't allowed by the bible. If you read everything in context and not just pull out a few verses, God never thought blacks were less than whites. When it comes to God, He doesn't pay attention to what race you are or if you are a male or female or if you are a Greek or Jew. Being black was never a sin and neither was being a woman or whatever ethnicity you are. So it's good we straightened that all out and it's all equal between the races, ethnicities and men and women.
But the bible does call hom0sexu@lity a sin. I am allowed to agree with the bible's teachings.

Actually I read another story about a gay business that didn't want to supply tshirst or signs or some sort of in writing thing that they could not support as lesbians. And they don't want to be forced to provide services either. They think this woman should be allowed to not bake the cake, and they shoud be allowed to not provide their service to people they don't like at all.

Libertarian – if a Christian points out something as a sin, according to the bible which Christians are supposed to believe is inspired teachings, how is that hate? I know what is a sin and what is not. That doesn't make me a hater. I don't hate gays or gossipers, I just know what is a sin and I will point it out when someone is trying to make me think it is not.
[3] February 19, 2015 at 12:28pm
But mostly, read your Bible and see that Jesus hung out with tax collectors and sided with an adulterous woman. It seems pretty clear to me that Jesus loves Gay people, too.
Jesus didn't just "hang out" with them. He was there like a doctor offering healing. He wasn't just chillin. He was there for a purpose.
And yes, God loves everyone. That's why He sent us Jesus. However, God doesn't think sin is OK. That's why He sent Jesus. Anyone who says sin is not sin, is deceiving themselves. Jesus came to save us from our sin, not so we can try to convince the world around us that it's not really a sin.

"The Courts have confirmed the power of the Legislative Branch to prohibit conduct it deems discriminatory, even where the motivation for that conduct is grounded in religious belief."
Oh my. This is scary thinking.
And don't think for a second this couple went to her florist shop by accident. They targeted her because they knew she would say no. If I went to get a service at a private business and they refused for religious reasons (let's say because I'm divorced and they think that's just evil) I would be angry, I may argue with them, but I will turn around and never set foot in that business again and I would make sure to tell everyone I knew how awful they were.

That employee needs to be fired. You don't get all up in an angry person's face and point at them and raise your voice and get alll nasty and repeating your selfover and over and get close enough for them to head butt you.
I work for state gov't, sit at a desk in front of a computer screen and only interact with fellow employees, and I still have to go to a training every few years that tell me how to deal with upset clients, even though I NEVER see upset clients, and I know this employee is doing it ALL WRONG!
People like her need to get fired. You are an employee and you represent your company. You have to know how to calmly deal with upset people and not escalate it. When I am at work I should not be worried if someone is talking 'wrong" to me, or saying things I don't like. I need to let that roll off and ignore them if possible or if I have to deal with them be calm. This woman is acting like no one is allowed to say untoward things to her when she's working. Get real lady.

Fee advice
New regulations will change our understanding of how much we're paying for our mutual funds, but some critics argue the changes don't go far enough
Few investors know how much they pay for advice from their financial adviser or planner.
Some might even assume it's free because they aren't directly handing over cash every time they meet. Yet most investors buying mutual funds sold by an adviser are paying for advice whether they know it or not.
And so they should. Good advice should come at a cost.
But the problem has always been figuring out just how much you're paying for advice.
That's all about to change over the next three years as new government regulations are phased in requiring investment firms to provide better disclosure about fees investors are paying on their funds -- as well as annual performance of those investments.
"What the regulators wanted... is to make sure the investor understands how much is being paid to the adviser," says Joanne De Laurentiis, president of the IFIC (Investment Funds Institute of Canada), representing the industry. "Now you'll have pretty good information to chat with your adviser if you were unhappy."
Although a step in the right direction, critics argue the measures don't go far enough.
Tom Bradley, president of the small, Vancouver-based mutual fund firm Steadyhand Investment Funds, says the central problem with the industry's fee structure -- trailer fees -- still hasn't been adequately addressed.
"It (a trailer fee) is embedded into the management expense ratio (MER) and it is generally about one per cent for equity and balanced funds," he says, adding the trailer fee is less for bond and money-market funds.
It's effectively a sales commission paid by many fund companies to compensate advisers for selling their funds.
Trailer fees make up the majority of compensation commissions (64 per cent in 2011, compared to 27 per cent in 1996) paid to advisers in Canada, states a recent report by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA), representing provincial and territorial securities regulators.
While trailer fees will be reported on statements annually under new regulations, Bradley says the industry should go a step further and ban them altogether.
"Whoever is dealing with the client -- a financial planner, broker or whatever -- let them charge for advice whatever he or she sees fit instead of someone at the marketing department of a fund company determining how that planner or adviser is going to get paid," says Bradley, whose fund company does not pay trailer fees.
Banning trailers would help avoid possible conflicts of interest where an adviser recommends one fund over another because it pays a higher trailer fee, he says.
Others critical of the industry argue present standards of conduct for investment advisers also need to be changed to protect the investing public from these kinds of conflicts of interest.
At the moment, advisers are held to a 'know your client' standard when providing advice.
While advisers can't recommend to little old ladies who fear losing their money they should invest in high-risk emerging market equity funds, the standard is less clear about other conflicts. Longtime investor advocate Joe Killoran says even though advisers can't sell a product that's unsuitable to their clients, they're still salespeople and not true advisers because they are not legally bound to provide advice that puts their clients' interests ahead of their own.
"They don't have the fiduciary oath."
De Laurentiis says licensed advisers are supposed to disclose potential conflicts. "In other words, if I'm being paid by the manager of the fund, I need to disclose that very clearly to you and say 'Here's what I'm being paid and who is paying me.' "
Regulations, however, only require advisers discuss with clients the MER and whether the funds have upfront costs and redemption penalties, but they aren't required to tell clients how much a fund firm is paying them in trailing commissions for selling a fund.
And many advisers -- more than 50 per cent in surveys -- do not discuss trailers with their clients, the CSA report found.
Killoran says holding financial advisers to a higher professional standard would help address this problem because they could face professional disciplinary or even legal action if they don't act in clients' best interests.
This higher standard already applies to some professions in the financial industry. Portfolio managers, which run the mutual funds, pension funds and the wealth of high-net-worth clients, do have a fiduciary duty to act in their clients' best interests.
That's largely because many of them have a certified financial analyst (CFA) designation, which includes a fiduciary duty to clients in its code of ethics.
In fact, the CFA institute -- the governing body for CFA charter-holders -- is now pushing for more than just its own profession to be held to this standard. Last month, it made it a top priority in a new campaign announced at its annual meeting aimed at restoring investor trust in the system.
"We believe anybody offering advice to people where people are entitled to believe that they're entering into a relationship of trust, they're owed that same standard of care, prudence and loyalty that a fiduciary would be held to," says John Rogers, president of the New York-based organization.
Canada's regulators are considering the idea for advisers, brokers and planners, but the industry argues it would make advisers' jobs too difficult and adequate protection is already in place, De Laurentiis says.
"It becomes more of an academic question about if you had a very strict legal duty to advise clients in their best interest, would it actually make a big difference?" she says, adding the United Kingdom and Australia have moved in this direction and encountered obstacles.
"What they've concluded is you can't really impose a strict best-interest duty because it legally ties everybody up to the point they can't do anything."
Furthermore, putting in place these measures may increase costs for some investors because investment firms would have higher expenses for enhanced training, reporting and compliance, the industry contends.
And it would most likely be the little guy who bears the brunt of the increases.
Yet this argument actually makes the case for greater transparency, Bradley says.
"It's basically saying that 'We've duped everybody and nobody knows what they're paying and that allows us to charge more to the larger clients than they should be paying so we can subsidize the smaller clients."
He says changing how advice is provided and compensated likely will increase costs slightly for the investor with $10,000 in funds paying $50 a year in fees for advice.
"But how do we ever expect the industry to change and evolve for the better if there's this subterfuge in place?"

Some of the most ingenious ideas for designing microfluidic systems come from observing plants and animals. A study that quantifies the protein-driven helical flow of liquid in large plant cells, for instance, may well inspire micron-scale liquid mixers and sensors.

Starting of a new season, busy two weeks!
It is spring break and that only means one thing for me. Plant like crazy! I am a market gardener and teacher, so spring break means garden time. Only problem it has rained everyday since Monday. Luckily, the forecasters were correct on this and I started my work last week with tilling and making raised beds. I spent many hours getting as much stuff planted outside as I could prior to the rain. So, during spring break I have been planting everything inside all 6 of my high tunnels. Here are some pics.
Carrots, Cherry tomatoes and onions sets
Big Tomatoes
Bok Choy, Swiss Chard, Happy Rich Broccoli, Winterbor Kale and Red Russian Kale
Red, White and Yellow Sweet Onions
More Onions, Bok Choy, Napa Cabbages, Lettuce Spinach
Outside plantings, use to be inside a movable high tunnel Carrots. I started to weed, then it got too muddy. It is going to stink to get these all weeded.
Radishes, Turnips, and Over Wintered Green onions
More onions, Beets and Onions under a low tunnel
More Onions, Leeks and Potatoes
I also planted a 1/4 an acre of potatoes at another location.
I have one more building to fill with peppers, but they will wait til April 1st. Then I will also move the movable buildings and transplant in Cucumbers and Zucchini. I my mind, spring has sprung!
If you are talking about the plastic mulched beds, no we laid that by hand.
It takes some time, but we are getting faster. I hope the time spent now means less weeding in the future.
First I till the beds out to at least 3 feet wide.
Then I come back with a rake or a hoe and make a 4 to 6 inch furrow on each side of the bed.
Then we set the roll of plastic on the bed roll it out a few feet and bury the edges and on the end. It works best to hold it down with a helper or a heavy concrete block. Then unroll further and stretch as you go. Fill the sides back in with the dirt.
Then at the end of the rows, my helpers help me out.
I hope this helps. I wish I had a mulch layer, but I need to get the tractor and tiller first. I did build a garden bedder/hiller that I used to make raised beds outside. I rented a tractor this year and it worked great.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took a day – interviewed at PwC in March 2015.Interview Details
Applied through employee referral. Went into the Boston office for an interview with a partner, manager, and senior associate. The interview experience was about a half day from 9:00 to 2:00. Breakfast and a presentation in the morning, short tour, and then 3 half hour interviews. After that all of the candidates went to lunch with the hosts. Over all not a bad experience. I still haven't received an offer though and my interview was yesterday. So my hope is fading.Interview Questions

These were two 45 min interviews with a current manager and a Director. In total, the first round interviews were 90 minutes. A week later I received an invitation for the final round interviews, which were at a PwC office. The second round interviews were from 8:15 until 12:30. In total, there were three interviews: first with a senior partner, than with an consultant , and finally a case based interview. They give you the case 48 hours in advance to prepare at home. However, you receive the questions once you are at the office and then you have to prepare slides on paper (4 to 10 slides). The time frame for slides preparation is 45 minutes.Interview Questions

All were very conversational and they didn't ask very many questions. They really don't expect you to have much experience as you aren't working in an accounting line of service in this internship.

I applied for assurance associate position in Los Angeles at a job fair for English and Japanese bilinguals so the position was for Japanese practice.
I walked into their booth with my resume. First they put me through "English screening" which is just and an casual conversation with one of their staff. The next one was a real interview with an manager. He asked me to explain him my past job experiences and why I want to do audit. It took about 10 to 15 minutes. The second interview was on the next day with a partner. He basically asked same basic questions but he asked what industry I would be interested in to audit. Also he asked why PwC, not other Big 4. The interview was about 20 mins and I was invited to dinner with all the staff, managers and partners that night. I was not asked any interview-like questions at dinner but I got to ask many questions about the firm.
About 2 weeks later, I had phone interviews with one manager and two partners on the same day. Each interview was for 30 mins. (You usually visit their office for this interviews but I was out of country and could not be there.) There was no difficult or surprise questions here as well but I could have nice conversations that especially I had someone we know in common with two of them.

there's no menu option to minimize from full screen. To go from full screen VNC viewer to another app you have to switch out of full screen and minimize, this is a time waster.

You can use applications on your secondary screen while tigervnc is displayed on your primary screen (or the other way around).
If you set up tigervnc not to pass special keys to the remote session then Alt+Tab or Win shortcuts should work even in fullscreen to switch to other applications and windows menu, respectively.
If you set up tigervnc to pass special keys to remote session then it does so, including Alt+Tab, etc.
Note that you can switch applications normally while Tigervnc is not fullscreen, you do not have to minimize.

1998 Dodge caravan BRAKES
Posting this on behalf of my father. He replaced the front brake pads on the van. He followed the instructions to a "T" The van stops much better. But after driving for a bit, he got out and touched them (rotar area), they felt extremely hot, almost to the point of burning ones finger. Should they be that hot? Have felt our other vehicles brake are (rotars) and they are not that hot. From a bit of reading I have completed, they said once the brakes are "broken in" the heat should go away. As i stated earlier, the van stops much better. Thanks.
After several moderate brake applications, the brake rotors will be too hot to touch on pretty much any car -- that does not qualify as extremely hot. The main things I look for are that one side does not seem a lot hotter than the other, and that there are no unusual odors, which could indicate that something really is too hot.

Cetaphil enters the cleansing cloth market with its legacy as being the go-to line for gentle cleansers—but these cloths are so gentle as to be minimally effective at what they're supposed to do: Cleanse skin and remove makeup.
The cloths feel sturdy and they don't fall apart during use, but requires a lot of effort (and at least two cloths per use) to remove a full face of makeup. And for removing eye makeup, well, most mascaras and eyeliners won't budge unless you really rub your skin, which we never encourage (rubbing can lead to sagging and inflammation).
Formula-wise, we were lefty wondering why Cetaphil used so many preservatives, including one (2-bromo-2-nitropane-1,3 diol) that releases formaldehyde and is known to be sensitizing (Source: British Journal of Dermatology, February 2003, pages 259–264).
In the end, from a formulary, usage, and value perspective these are not the cleansing cloths to buy. They're only recommended for AM use, and only then if you rinse skin afterward—so you may as well just wash with a water-soluble cleanser!
Great for daily removal of impurities and makeup. Gentle on your skin and sensitive to your skins needs, they will not strip the skin of natural protective oils or emollients, or disturb the skin's natural pH balance. This ensures your skin will be left feeling clean, refreshed and balanced after every use

Cetaphil At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; mostly fragrance-free products; affordable and widely available; offers complete ingredient lists on its Web site; the sunscreens offer sufficient UVA protection.
Weaknesses: No anti-acne products; no state-of-the-art moisturizers; the original Gentle Skin Cleanser is a dated formula that isn't nearly as elegant or efficacious as many other water-soluble cleansers.
This familiar, widely distributed skin-care collection is manufactured by Galderma, the same company that markets the prescription products Differin and MetroGel. Given the dermatology heritage of Galderma (the company's Web site mentions this consistently), it's surprising the Cetaphil line hasn't advanced beyond the basics. Yes, most of what's available is a safe bet for those with sensitive skin, but it's disappointing that their SPF-rated products utilize active ingredients that can be a problem for sensitive skin. A mineral-based sunscreen would be a welcome addition for a line that stresses its value for sensitive skin!
We'd have expected the company to keep pace with the latest research into what it takes to create a truly great moisturizer, but that hasn't occurred either, and it could be done while still keeping the products suitable for those with sensitive skin.
As for their original Gentle Skin Cleanser, it is no longer one we recommend. Why? Although we were a champion of this cleanser for years (back when hardly anyone knew about it and good water-soluble cleansers were scarce), the formula has become dated and just isn't worth strong consideration over several other cleansers at the drugstore.

Im hoping Bp reconsiders. I have very sensitive skin. I cant use other mild cleansers for the reason you want this product to improve, the mineral based additivtives for cell communication etc... my skin is so sensitive that i cant even handle that. Im suggesting you Put this product in a different context. For non makeup wearers its a brilliant option. And with the product going dow the drain anyway, who cares about the extra stuff? Id rather a great moisturizer do the work.

'Decorah Eagle Cam:' A Beak Breaks Through First Egg
By Eyder Peralta
A quick update on the Decorah Bald Eagle cam that we've been keeping track of and became quite the sensation last year.
Coming in just after the Raptor Resource Project predicted, Eagle watchers over at Wired have spotted a beak breaking through the first of three eggs.
That means that an eaglet will emerge soon. Wired explains:
"The bald eaglet will probably take at least 12 hours, and possibly as many as 48 hours to break completely free from its shell. The first chick will have a head start on its siblings and will likely enjoy being the biggest eaglet in the nest for months."
The video above is a live feed from Decorah, Iowa.

"Food," Jenkins writes, "is present in Mediterranean cultures in a way it's not in our own ... the way it's grown and harvested, the way it's prepared, what's in season and out...." The Essential Mediterranean brings that same sensibility, or at least its potential, into the North American kitchen and home. These are fabulous flavors, she reminds the reader, simple foods, with health benefits suited to life in a spa. And, they are easy to include in our daily fare. It's a matter of understanding the key ingredients, as though they are building blocks. "A recipe," Jenkins notes, "is a formula.... Cooking, on the other hand, is a strategy...." This is a book to read, and then to taste, with dozens of classic, delicious recipes. By the time you finish The Essential Mediterranean, you will not only be a better Mediterranean cook, you will know why. --Schuyler Ingle

The Red Camera company really likes to be at the forefront of camera resolution and to that end it has now released a monochrome version of its Epic camera with a 6K Dragon sensor.
Proving the axiom that not all firmware updates are created equal, RED packs a punch via its 'Build 4'
We've been given a RED EPIC M Monochrome to use for a couple of weeks, lent to us by RED's European headquarters in Pinewood Studios, West London. Why does this very high resolution black and white video camera even exist?
RedShark contributor Phil Rhodes pointed out something to me the other day that sounds obvious when you hear it: that camera makers never used to make film, and yet - if you can remember that far back - it is the film that determines the quality and feel of the photograph (and the lens, of course), not the camera
The battle for cheaper 4K+ acquisition is heating up. Just a few days ago, Sony announced the F5 and the F55, and a constellation of accessories that comprise their new 4K ecosystem. Not to be outdone, RED, perhaps in a ploy to steal some of Sony's thunder, made its own announcement, via CEO Jim Jannard's post on the REDuser forum:
One big and consistent criticism of the RED Scarlet and EPIC cameras has been the fan noise. Even the die-hard owner operators who love their cameras compare it to a hairdryer when it is in full effect! RedShark contributor Freya reports
We're very excited about this video. It is filmed using HDR (High Dynamic Range) and gives the video a very distinctive look that is entirely appropriate for its subject matter: New York. And it may just be a very important moment in the history of film-making
Why would someone specify a camera before they chose the cinematographer? David Read despairs...
RED and, say, Sony are diametrically different in so many ways, and perhaps no more so than in the way that the EPIC manufacturer absolutely loves to let information about new products seep from every pore
Following up his "first impressions" article, Phil Rhodes reports on his actual use of this most unusual of cameras

Being-in-the-world: A Commentary on Heidegger's Being and Time, División I
MIT Press, 1991 - Philosophy - 370 pages
Being-in-the-World is a guide to one of the most influential philosophical works of this century: Division I of Part One of Being and Time, where Martin Heidegger works out an original and powerful account of being-in-the-world which he then uses to ground a profound critique of traditional ontology and epistemology. Hubert Dreyfus's commentary opens the way for a new appreciation of this difficult philosopher, revealing a rigorous and illuminating vocabulary that is indispensable for talking about the phenomenon of world.The publication of Being and Time in 1927 turned the academic world on its head. Since then it has become a touchstone for philosophers as diverse as Marcuse, Sartre, Foucault, and Derrida who seek an alternative to the rationalist Cartesian tradition of western philosophy. But Heidegger's text is notoriously dense, and his language seems to consist of unnecessarily barbaric neologisms; to the neophyte and even to those schooled in Heidegger thought, the result is often incomprehensible.Dreyfus's approach to this daunting book is straightforward and pragmatic. He explains the text by frequent examples drawn from everyday life, and he skillfully relates Heidegger's ideas to the questions about being and mind that have preoccupied a generation of cognitive scientists and philosophers of mind.Hubert L. Dreyfus is Professor of Philosophy at the University of California, Berkeley.
