Lovely scent. Smelt it on my Boss and could not stop following her wherever she went. Very sweet scent that makes you feel like eating whoever is wearing it. i recommend Laura Biagiotti to all.

I found Laura at a duty free shop on the boarder of Greece and Bulgaria about 15 years ago. I loved it so much I bought the body wash, parfum, body lotion and eau de toilet. I've been wearing it ever since. It is the only perfume I have ever bought more than 1 bottle. My friends loved and started wearing too. It's hard to find anywhere except the net. I would like to find the body wash again but no luck so far. Laura Emotions is also nice, a little more fragrant, but Laura by far is my favorite.

I just love when my wife wears "Laura B" - I may not always make a comment to her but I ALWAYS know she has it on. Its one of those "never out" fragrances.

Laura by Laura Biagiotti is a fragrance introduced to me by my daughter when she received it from her boy-friend. On her is was intoxicating. I loved it, I wear it, often. It is my most favourite fragrance, keeping in mind I love clean smells and cannot tolerate heavy fragrances - they give me a headache even if I love the smell. So I love to wear it anytime but it is most entrancing in the summer evenings.

HOUSTON -- In an award-winning photograph by Paul Vincent Kuntz, a photographer at Texas Children s Hospital, a young woman stares fiercely at his lens. She is obviously strong, determined, and confident. But the black and white picture captures your attention also by what it does not show. The young woman leaning against a bicycle is missing most of her fingers and both of her feet.
How I am today? Life is pretty sweet, Jamie Schanbaum said with a laugh when we visited her at her home in Austin. I'm more independent than I've ever been. So yeah I like my life currently.
Jamie Schanbaum, the 25-year-old captured in that black and white photograph, glows with that enthusiasm despite her struggles of the last five years.
She was a student at the University of Texas at Austin in 2008 when she contracted bacterial meningitis. The months-long fight would force doctors to amputate both feet and most of her fingers.
But Jamie Schanbaum is the Jamie Schanbaum who helped change Texas Law.
The Jamie Schanbaum Act signed by Gov. Rick Perry went into effect January 1, 2010 and required all new and transfer students living in university housing, fraternities and sororities to be vaccinated against bacterial meningitis.
The law was strengthened to include all incoming students, not just those who live in dorms, after the 2011 death of Niko Williams, a student at Texas A&M who lived in an off-campus apartment.
As for Schanbaum, her work as an advocate for meningitis awareness continues.
She is back in school at UT full-time hoping to graduate next year and pursue a career as a marriage and family counselor. She is also actively pursuing a passion she had before her illness.
Spectacular, she said of the ability to ride a bicycle again.
Schanbaum, who walks and rides with the assistance of prosthetic legs, has been cycling for several years now. She s even considering training for the 2016 Paralympics.
I think it's just riding, the idea of wind and doing something you thought you couldn't do. Anything that I think I can't do is probably possible I just have to do it in the most ridiculous way possible.
Ridiculous is not what her mom would call it.
As a mother I can't even tell you what, I look at her and you know it's just amazing, I'm very proud of her, said Patsy Schanbaum. There are so many people that don t even realize she has a disability. She doesn't let anything stop her.
She's dealing with this with such amazing grace that it's truly inspiring.
Are you OK with that, KHOU 11 News reporter Kevin Reece asked Jamie.
Yes. I'm definitely OK with those who say I inspire them, said Jamie. You know sitting in the hospital bed you have so many doubts about what life could be like because you think of the worst.
It's just a different perspective of what I appreciate and what others don't.
What she appreciates now, along with the wind in her hair as she rides her bike through Austin, is a life as a public speaker as an advocate for the meningitis vaccine. Other than that she's just a 25-year-old pedaling for a normal life.
Yeah, normalcy is what I'm going for. Just striving for success.
By anyone's measure of success, she's clearly already arrived.

Historic Everett's 2013 calendar celebrates city's saloons and brothels
Everett's calendar for 2013 celebrates the city's barrooms and brothels, a switch from 2011's churches.
Historic Everett's 2013 calendar "Saloons and Brothels."
Edmonds Historic Museum
This photo of Allen Yost's 1912 Cadillac touring car, taken at Fifth Avenue and Maple Street in Edmonds, is included in the 2013 Edmonds Historic Calendar. George Yost is in the front seat, his wife Nita is behind the wheel, and Eban Bartlett stands on the running board.
Ornate barrooms welcomed customers. Decor was manly, with dark wood carvings, shining brass hardware and paintings of nude women. Spittoons dotted the floor.
Some establishments had hidden booths for women. At the bar, it was mostly a man's world.
In the Riverside area, men satisfied other appetites on Market Street -- a street so notorious it was long ago renamed Highland Avenue.
There, behind a wooden fence meant to shield proper folks from improper sights, were the brothels. In upstairs rooms, prostitutes serviced willing customers.
"A mayor elected in 1910 created a $10 per month 'fine' on the women, raising so much revenue he could lower business taxes," according to Historic Everett's 2013 calendar, titled "Saloons and Brothels of days (and nights) gone by."
Sales of the $20 calendar fund the nonprofit heritage group's education programs, said Andrea Tucker, event director for Historic Everett.
With some shady places and plenty of strong faces, the 2013 calendar is quite a switch from previous editions. The 2012 calendar featured images of architect Earl Morrison's buildings. Two years ago, the theme was Everett's historic churches.
"They already covered the sacred; now it's the profane," quipped David Dilgard, a local history specialist at the Everett Public Library.
With help from the library and Everett Community College, Historic Everett's Dave Ramstad researched and wrote the calendar's text, which delves into stories of bar owners and early Everett's freewheeling night life. Editor and graphic designer Diane Brooks created the calendar's impressive design. Striking photographs make "Saloons and Brothels" a treasure.
Dilgard said a number of the photos come from an Everett Community College collection. Ed Gilliland, a photo instructor at the college, was responsible for the collection, which Dilgard said included a batch of glass negatives.
"They were all taken in the summer of 1907," Dilgard said. "There were a number of commercial photographers. It's not known who took the pictures, or necessarily which saloons are shown."
The cover photo, also the image for December 2013, is a 1907 Everett saloon scene where a woman stands at the bar with the clientele -- unusual for the time. A dog sits atop the bar, and the place has a fancy gramophone.
"Everett was a wild place. It gives me the chills sometimes to see the places that are still here," Tucker said.
Ramstad said that in the early 1900s, men living in timber camps were doing extremely dangerous work. "Guys would get their paychecks and go to town. Saloon life in Everett, until Prohibition, was unlimited. Girls were upstairs to do business. These were very tough places," he said.
Things changed in 1911. That's the year Everett embraced prohibition, with a voter-approved "Local Option." It didn't last long, because the city lost so much money in bar fees. But Washington's dry law took effect in 1916, four years before national Prohibition in 1920. It lasted until repeal in 1933.
Historic Everett isn't the only group selling calendars showing the past. The city of Edmonds Historic Preservation Commission is selling its annual Edmonds Historic Calendar for $5 each.
In a setting more wholesome than Everett's bars, one image from the Edmonds calendar shows a well-dressed group out for a ride in a 1912 Cadillac Touring Car.
The Historic Everett calendar fast-forwards to today with a list of current restaurants and drinking establishments on Hewitt, which it calls the "Modern-Era Hewitt Run."
Those who didn't grow up here may be unaware of the 21st birthday tradition suggesting a reveler begin at The Anchor Pub, which opened in 1907, and cruise on foot up Hewitt, grabbing a beer at each tavern.
Today's run -- from The Anchor at 1001 Hewitt Ave. to Buck's American Cafe at 2901 Hewitt Ave. and back -- is "just a 15-beer circuit," according to the calendar. In the late 1950s, "it was an unseemly 29-drink proposition."
Dilgard, an Everett native, said he never took part in the boozy rite of passage. "It was cruising Colby, rather than cruising Hewitt on foot in pursuit of beer," he said.
There's help in the calendar for those who do try the Hewitt run. It lists phone numbers -- to call a taxi.

Stomach Cancer (cont.)
In this Article
How is staging determined?
Reader Stories
If the biopsy shows that you have stomach cancer, your doctor needs to learn the stage (extent) of the disease to help you choose the best treatment.
Staging is a careful attempt to find out the following:
When stomach cancer spreads, cancer cells may be found in nearby lymph nodes, the liver, the pancreas, esophagus, intestine, or other organs. Your doctor may order blood tests and other tests to check these areas:
Sometimes staging is not complete until after surgery to remove the tumor and nearby lymph nodes.
When stomach cancer spreads from its original place to another part of the body, the new tumor has the same kind of abnormal cells and the same name as the primary (original) tumor. For example, if stomach cancer spreads to the liver, the cancer cells in the liver are actually stomach cancer cells. The disease is metastatic stomach cancer, not liver cancer. For that reason, it is treated as stomach cancer, not liver cancer. Doctors call the new tumor "distant" or metastatic disease.
These are the stages of stomach cancer:

|Behind the Scenes at Radiothon 2012 - Day 1
The fifth annual Radiothon fundraiser is an hour from hitting the country music airwaves of 103.5-FM, and a dozen hospital staffers and volunteers are hard at work on last-minute details in the Children's Auditorium.
In the middle of the action - as always - is event producer Ann Miller, long-time media relations manager for All Children's with multiple Emmy Awards to her credit for coordinating the Telethon broadcasts.
"The thing about the Radiothon is it truly is a day in the life of All Children's Hospital," she says.
With that thought in mind, here's a look at how Day One unfolded, with an equally packed schedule for Day Two on tap all day Friday (including a scheduled appearance by former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back great Mike Alstott).
Without further ado - live from All Children's ... it's Radiothon 2012.
5:30 a.m. - Volunteers move about the auditorium, getting everything ready for the flood of calls that will soon pour in. Phone sets rest silently upon rows of tables on one side of the auditorium, directly across from the US 103.5-FM desk, where morning on-air personalities Catfish and Launa will soon go to work to kick off another Radiothon.
"The whole staff is pumped up about it," he says. "Everybody's busy and everybody's got their complaints and their problems but this is a time we can all get together and think of others. And this facility is fabulous. And these families and kids who come in here are just amazing. We've met so many of them. They've walked away overwhelmed with the support and love they get. A lot of lives are saved here. I think this hospital is one of the best on the planet."
6:15 a.m.: Despite the early hour, a wave of excitement and energy fills the room as the show gets rolling. Catfish kicks things off by telling listeners to set aside some Christmas cash and consider become an All Children's Miracle Maker. Launa jumps in to elaborate: "Just $10 a month - 30 cents a month - is all we're asking."
6:17 a.m.: A phone rings on the other side of the room - the first official one of Radiothon 2012 - and applause and loud cheers erupt to mark the moment. In the middle of the room, the big erasable "incentive board" offers the initial lure to listeners: a $25 Bernini of Ybor gift certificate.
6:28 a.m.: First guest of the day, ACH director of strategic services Steve Dunn, chats with Catfish about long range planning and the effort to build the new facility. Steve is one of an array of All Children's vice presidents who have arrived before dawn to handle calls. Maggie Reilly, director of occupational physical therapy, visits with the deejays next. She talks about her program, including some new additions. "We have a lot of new things," she tells them. "A new building. A Child Development and Rehabilitation Center and we're very fortunate to have a new therapeutic playground outside. So we have a whole area for toddlers and older kids to run and climb and play, with a sports area and a sensory garden."
Seconds later, the first Miracle Maker donations are announced on air - including $250 from parents Rob and Rita Vasquez. The life of their son, Robbie, was saved at All Children's six years ago after collapsing while practicing for a cross-country race. Doctors raced to relieve pressure on his brain from a tumor, then watched him make a miraculous recovery. Small wonder his parents have remained dedicated supporters of the ACH mission ever since.
7:09 a.m.: Dr. Patrick Mularoni, a pediatric emergency and sports medicine physician at All Children's, talks with Catfish and Launa about the serious problem of concussions in youth sports. "When an athlete suffers a concussion, only about 10 percent of those kids will have loss of consciousness, so a concussion can be very vague," he says. Dr. Mulroni has big plans to help All Children's expand the study of this epidemic issue in youth sports. Catfish playfully puts the sports doc on the spot, asking him to address the crucial need for ongoing financial support. "A lot families are in need in this area," Dr. Mulroni says. "And the work we provide costs a lot of money. We rely on the community to help fund the hospital and to help make this wonderful place what it is."
7:45 a.m.: Ann Miller pauses in her producer role and takes to the mic to relay a poignant story - one that has just come in over the phones to a staff volunteer. A mom wanted to talk about her infant son, Levi, who had suddenly becoming mysteriously ill - including projectile vomiting of blood. Even though they were 60 miles away, the mother knew All Children's was where she needed to take Levi. He was rushed to the hospital, where doctors quickly stabilized him. And by that evening, he was even well enough to return home. Sadly, Levi passed away a month later - a victim of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. With her world turned upside down, the mother forgot to pay her hospital bill. When she called up the billing office to explain what happened, the representative on the other end of the line stopped her in mid-sentence: forget the bill. It would be completely forgiven. That was the story the mom wanted listeners to know - how the compassion of a hospital in a time of tragedy and heartbreak can make such a difference.
7:59 a.m.: Toby Keith's "How Do You Like Me Now?" is playing on 103.5, piped in over the auditorium speakers. Judging from the impressive flow of donations so far, listeners like All Children's lots. Stephanie Hall, Director of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals for ACH, just took a $1,000 pledge from Fort Lauderdale. "It's been a great morning," she says.
8:10 a.m.: Eighteen-month-old Jack, the first ACH kid of the day arrives, in the arms of mother Danielle. Their story came to light in last year's Radiothon. Jack was born three weeks early and diagnosed in the Neonatal Care Unit with Down Syndrome. His stay in the NICU was a challenging one, including two surgeries, an infection and feeding issues - forcing him to stay 78 days in the hospital. When he finally was able to go home, his parents decorated his crib with a sign that read: "Hit the road, Jack!" Today, he's making great strides, with the help of ACH speech and feeding therapy. He's a happy, healthy baby now involved in the hospital's Early Steps Program.
Danielle told his story again on air, stressing how All Children's had made an immeasurable impact on their lives. "We were just were another one of those parents who never thought we would need All Children's," she says. But it was there in a big way when they did. When it's time to sign off, Catfish asks Jack to say goodbye. On cue, he blurts out, "bye bye" - and the room fills with applause for his efforts. "Your first big starring role," replies Catfish. "Way to go, Jack!"
8:50 a.m.: Laura McKeeman, reigning Miss Florida and SunSports broadcaster known for her coverage of the Tampa Bay Rays, has been a frequent visitor on the floors of All Children's. And she's next on the show. Her future includes a trip to Las Vegas in January to compete in the Miss America pageant - and soon after begin covering the Rays when they begin their 2013 season. But now, Laura wants to talk about the kids who have touched her heart during visits to All Children's. She talks about meeting one teen girl whom, in spite of dealing with a life-threatening condition, was intent keeping up with her AP high school courses. "She told me I'm doing my homework because I have great dreams to go to college and help other young children who are going through what I'm going through right now," Laura recounts. "She was not listening to the statistics that said maybe she wasn't going to make it. She was going to power through it." Laura gave the young woman a ring to keep as a sign of friendship and hope - and still stays in touch with her on Facebook. "She's doing very well," Laura adds.
9:15 a.m.: Another teenage girl is now in the spotlight: 13-year-old Kaitlyn, a cystic fibrosis patient, sits down with the radio hosts wearing a mask to protect her from germs. Her mom, Kelly, joins her and explains how Kaitlyn wasn't diagnosed until two years ago - much later than most CF patients. She had always exhibited symptoms but nobody put the pieces together until her little sister, Gabby, was born and Kelly was identified as a CF carrier. Kaitlyn then proceeds to steal the whole show. She's charming and animated during the interview, despite describing herself as "socially awkward."
When the topic turns to music, Kaitlyn states that she loves to sing. When Catfish and Launa offer her a chance, Kaitlyn wows the crowd with a stunning, soulful version of "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera. "Everyday is so wonderful / Then suddenly it's hard to breathe / Now and then I get insecure / From all the pain / I'm so ashamed / I am beautiful / No matter what they say / Words can't bring me down / I am beautiful/ In every single way ... " The performance triggers a boisterous, heartfelt ovation. "Well, you get to go," says Catfish. "I'm going to sign off on that right now. That is awesome." Moments later, Laura McKeeman walks over to tell Kaitlyn how much she loved her singing and to keep in touch regarding possible performance opportunities. Even covered by a mask, Kaitlyn's big smile is impossible to hide.
10:01 a.m. - It's time for a shift change. 103.5 personality Norm takes over at the host table - just as a team of Walgreen's volunteers who'd been working the phones gives way to volunteers from Publix. And a new guest arrives to tell her story - a 17-year-old girl named Alex. Also a CF patient, Alex had gone home from the hospital Wednesday and hadn't expected to be back so quickly. But a problem with her IV tube forced an unplanned visit to the emergency room in the morning. When she was ready to leave, she decided to take a detour to the Radiothon for a quick visit. Alex talks about her ongoing projects she's involved with on the ACH Family Advisory Council - "anything from allergy projects, even just working on how doctors and nurses interact with patients." She's been coming to All Children's since she was diagnosed at 9. While she's on the air, her mom sends a text. "She wants me to say how great All Children's Hospital is and how much we love it here."
10:30 a.m.: As interviews with patients continue throughout the morning - right now with a thriving, 14-year-old kidney transplant patient named Esme - another room down a long hallway is hopping. Members of the Volunteer Services and Foundation staff are busy tabulating all the pledges that have been collected over the phone. Every 15 minutes, Radiothon helpers deliver another plastic container holding the latest pledge sheets. At the moment, staffers Brittany Nelms and Jasmine Giacalone, along with longtime volunteer Ann Van Peer, are entering all the data and verifying credit card numbers. Then Ryan Perry, director of Annual Giving tabulates all the numbers to keep a running total of the gifts. "Everything's going great so far," Ryan says. And the day is still young.
11:05 a.m.: Two unscheduled guests have just sat down with Norm. They are young mothers and newfound friends - Brook Anderson of Pasco County and Kristin Clark from Pensacola. A month ago, they didn't know each other, but now they are linked by the harrowing ordeals entwining their infant daughters. Brook's baby, 7-month-old Jaelyn, was born healthy but suddenly became terribly sick. Doctors discovered she had an enlarged heart and now needs a transplant to survive. "She was perfectly healthy, no problems," says Brook, her voice quavering with emotion. "Five months later, I'm here." Kelly dissolved into tears as Kristin told her story. Her 8-1/2-month-old child Breanna, needs heart surgery. In fact, she already had one operation but Kristin could see something wasn't right. She returned to the hospital and ended up coding before doctors saved her. She's now had myriad procedures and more are scheduled in two weeks, but she still is unable to swallow to due a problem with her trachea. "We've been here since she was born, and overall she's a happy kid," Kristin says. "She's been through so much and she's truly my hero."
When it's Norm's turn to talk, he can't. He is overcome with the heartache of what he has just heard and asks for a moment to compose himself. Even after a pause, he chokes up and his eyes fill with tears. "These kids don't know any different. ..." he manages to say. "And it's horrible." His voice trails off again before the interview continues. When it ends, he stands up from his chair, walks to the other side of the table and gives each woman a tight embrace.
11:30 a.m.: The heavy mood lightens as Steve and Susan Hurley of Stingray Plant City and Sting Ray Bartow make an in-person appearance to present a check on-air. It's for $5,000 and the gesture sparks a big response in the room. Norm takes the opportunity to prod any other business owners in the community who may be listening to follow the Hurley's lead. All the while, people making pledges are entered in a drawing to win all manner of prizes. A trip to the Academy of Country Music Award telecast in Las Vegas this spring has already been won by some lucky pledge-maker; still on tap are such goodies as an autographed Carrie Underwood guitar and four tickets to Busch Gardens' Christmas Town.
12:25 p.m.: Volunteers from Wal-Mart and Sam's Club have taken over for the Publix workers and one particular Wal-Mart helper, Terri Heaney, takes a turn at the radio table. She has a son who with Autism and ADHD who has benefitted enormously from therapy at All Children's. To show her gratitude, Terri has written a poem that she reads to Norm on the air. "One dollar, one dime / one donation at a time / Providing hope to parents and kids / Helping them all grow and live / Miracles are brought a little at a time / Won't you give a dollar or a dime?
1:37 p.m.: Next up, 9-year-old Ryan from St. Petersburg, a veteran of two previous Radiothon broadcasts. Ryan was diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis, a rare genetic disorder that causes non-cancerous tumors to grow in the brain and on other vital organs. He's undergone many surgeries and infusions of immune system boosters. But in spite of all the hardship he has endured, Ryan projects a cheery demeanor and flashes an ever-present smile. He's an avid fan of the Tampa Bay Rays. And when Norm asks him his favorite, he has a quick answer: "The pitching!" Smart kid. He then reveals the Matt Moore shirt he's wearing to underscore his answer. Norm has some inside info on a special Ryan mastered over the summer. "Bicycling!" he announces - and the room goes wild with his triumphant response.
2-7 p.m.: The guests and their powerful stories and comments continue through the afternoon. There's Cloud, an 11-year-old Lakeland boy, who battles the daily pain of juvenile arthritis. In spite of his difficulties, Cloud is on an Honor Roll student, a member of the Chess Club and Academic Team, a student newscaster and an active Boy Scout. There's 15-year-old Celina, a perfectly healthy high school student from Dunedin who was diagnosed with leukemia on Oct. 15 - after her dentist became concerned about her sudden and unusually bad case of gingivitis. To keep up with schoolwork, she has enrolled in four classes - taking two by phone conference, and the other two with hospital or homebound teachers who teach her weekly.
Like every guest, Cloud and Celina receive a customized thumb drive that contained a complete audio clip of their appearance on the air. The unique souvenir is the brainchild of multiple Emmy-winning Creative Services Director Mike Sexton. Sitting in the back of the room all day, he monitors the live sound feed through his laptop, which, in turn, is hooked to a video camera recording the whole scene. Literally seconds after each guest finishes at the mic, their special thumb drive is handed to them - now that's a parting gift.
Jenine Rabin, new Executive Vice President in charge of the All Children's Hospital Foundation, stops by to see her first Radiothon in action. "This is just such a wonderful opportunity for anyone to get involved," she says. "It's just perfect, because people can be giving gifts to become a Miracle Maker at $10 a month - they can give more, they can give less. It's great ¬- and I want to thank everyone who has contributed."
And everyone who'll keep the Radiothon giving going Friday.

This is a replica of the plaque commemorating the fourteen U.S. astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts that had died previous to the flight of Apollo 15 in 1971. The original plaque was placed on the Moon's surface by Apollo 15 commander Dave Scott in August 1971, to accompany a miniature sculpture of a human figure (made by Belgian artist Paul van Hoeydonck).
The plaque and statue were left without publicity and their existence was only revealed during the Apollo 16 launch. This replica was given to the Smithsonian Institution on April 17, 1972, the day after CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite revealed, during the broadcast of the Apollo 16 launch, the existence of the "fallen astronaut" and plaque as the first art on the Moon.
Gift of Paul Van Hoeydonck

PC Pro - TT GO LIVE 1000
Dec 02 2010
Elsewhere, the Go Live 1000 is as before, which means to say it's a great satnav. TomTom's IQ Routes feature uses analysis of user journeys going back over time to determine the quickest route, depending on the time and day of the week. You also get a year of TomTom's Live services, which use an embedded SIM card to provide Google Local search and live traffic information. The latter remains the most effective system we've used in any satnav. These Live services are cheaper than before too, costing £47.50 per year thereafter.

Bottom line
The world of ebooks is one that will only continue to open up to users of all types. As an author, seeing ebooks and ebook readers growing exponentially assures me that my course change, some five years ago, was right on the money. It's a great time to be an author, a reader, and a member of the ever-growing world of IT. The ability to read documentation, text books, and more on your desktop is a boon to anyone who needs to read anywhere.

I used .lit format from Microsoft for ebook reading since my early Jornada days. Unfortunately, now that Microsoft is no longer supporting .lit I can't read any of the DRM protected .lit ebooks I had purchased with my hard-earned money. When I try to open one of the DRM books a message comes up saying that the Microsoft Reader program has encountered an error and must shut down. This is very frustrating. I tried using Calibre to change some of the .lit books to another format, and Calibre won't work on the books protected by DRM, which is virtually everything that is not in the pubic domain. I expect the same thing to happen soon with .mobi format ebooks that I purchased from Fictionwise (which is now in the process of ending its operations). I have no objection to authors and publishers protecting ownership of their works, but to protect the honest consumers we need formats that don't lock you out of the book if the publisher gets out of the ebook business. The same problem exists with certain software. Even though you own a legal copy of the software, if the publisher goes out of business, you can no longer reach the publisher to "activate" your software, so it becomes useless and your money is long gone. Does anyone have a proposed solution for these problems?
There is a Calibre plugin for removing DRM from MOBI & AZW files which, once you've configured it with your Kindle's serial number, will strip the DRM from a book simply by loading it into Calibre. You can the of course view it using Calibre or convert it to any other format.
At first glance, it looked comprehensive and feature-rich. I wasn't thinking about DRM, but have a ton of books in both eReader and Kindle format, bought and paid for. Can't read any of them, can't change formats. I understand the philosophy, but aside from going to Gutenberg or Sacred Texts, etc., it's just not worth having another program on my system. I use Mobipocket, which works well enough for me to create Kindle books. I can't, however, read any of my eReader books on my Kindle handheld, having to use my PC based eReader Pro app. You would think by now the industry would have provided a fair and legal way to handle this, but market share and greed rule, I suppose. To be fair, Calibre is the best of what I've seen, but limited in usefulness for me personally.
There are a few sources of DRM-free publications, including Baen Books (science fiction and fantasy), which even has a Baen Free Library to seduce you to further output by the same authors -- especially for long series. They even furnish a free CD for a few of their hard covers. They have found this to be very profitable for future sales. There is also Project Gutenberg (about 40,000 articles and novels, mostly old and free of copyright). All of these are available in most of the major e-reader formats. And bravo for Calibre!
Don't forget the DRM that they put on books. I downloaded a book onto my Kindle, and tried to port it to my tablet, but its the dreaded DRM, so I cannot access it - only on the Kindle. So its carting round the Kindle and a Tablet, plus smartphone!
This is a very poor commentary on Calibre. I've been a fan of Calibre since about version 6 ( now on v9) and it does a lot more than just convert books into a sellable format! With it you can:- - create a complete library, organising your books by author, series, tags, date published, etc - you can add your own columns such as 'Genre' - convert books from one format to another - it supports about 12 different input formats, .doc, .pdf, .azw,. epub, .lit, .mobi, etc., - add metadata (either automatically or allowing you to add your own) including cover image, synopsis, series, ISBN, publication date, tags - manage your books on your devices - it recognises most ebook readers and, with a little help from iTunes, can also help with iPads - share your collection over the web with it's a built in web server - there's also a portable version for when your IT department at work won't let you install software on the PC on your desk!!! - schedule news feeds from a couple of hundred different sources which are then formatted into ebooks - you can also create your own news feed - searching through the online bookstores for the best price on a particular book - oh - and you can read books on your desktop/pc with it too !!! Kovid Goyal - the author of Calibre - is very active with it's development plus, because of the 'plugin' nature of Calibre, there is a large community of writers creating plugins for extra functionality. This isn't just a 'Desktop ebook reader' as the articles headline might suggest. It's a complete management/organiser for your book library.

I like using Adobe Digital Editions because it allows me to put my Kobo purchases on all my family members' readers. (ADE supports up to six eReaders.) Just be careful: ADE doesn't support all eReaders. For example, it works fine with Kobo Touch and Kobo Glo but not Kobo Vox.

copyright owner. As an author I have the option of applying ADE to the PDF files I make, and thus the person reading it needs a certain program and code to read it, but they can then read it on any device they enter the code into - this is a form of DRM managed by the copyright owner. While the stopping of a Kindle book being read on a non-Kindle device is a restriction by the hardware seller, Nook, and Apple do the same.
... is going to come with DRM. This is simply a reality. Copyright owners have a right to control who publishes their work so they can insure that are being fairly compensated. Your solution is to get the free Kindle reader App for your tablet (or smartphone) and the corresponding free apps for your other content. This will reduce you dependence on devices down to the device of your choice, Mac/PC, tablet, or smartphone.

Despite grant incentives and a new federal transportation law, states across the country have stalled in adopting 15 basic traffic safety laws recommended by experts, according to the 10th annual report card by Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety. New York has been the most progressive, adopting 13 of the 15 laws that tackle teen driver-licensing laws, distracted-driving laws and occupant protection programs, including booster seat requirements, notes the 2013 Roadmap of State Highway Safety Laws report. Last year only 10 state highway safety laws were enacted, in contrast to 16 laws passed in 2011 and 22 laws passed in 2010.

Is this PSU powerful enough?
by Crusifi6 - 11/11/12 3:52 AM
Hi, I'm new here and didn't know any place to go online for things like this.
Little background, I'm upgrading my GPU to a R7870 which requires a higher PSU. Which means I'm now in the market for a new PSU and was wondering if this would be powerful enough. I know the 7870 needs atleast 500W. Btw I'm 15 and don't have a job. My parents would be buying this for me and it will be a lot easier to break the news if it's cheap since they are already buying me a $200 GPU. It's my Christmas present, so yeah.
The reviews are all over the place thats why im skeptical.

Intel i3-3220
ASRock H77M micro

Ex-Seahawk Jon Kitna shares stories at prayer breakfast
Mark Mulligan / The Herald
Former NFL quarterback Jon Kitna speaks at the YMCA's 53rd annual Community Prayer Breakfast on Friday morning at Comcast Arena.
Mark Mulligan / The Herald
Former NFL quarterback Jon Kitna speaks at the YMCA's 53rd annual Community Prayer Breakfast on Friday morning at Comcast Arena.
Nearly 500 people gathered in the Hansen Conference Center at Comcast Arena in Everett for the 53rd annual Community Prayer Breakfast sponsored by the YMCA of Snohomish County and Everett's Trinity Lutheran College.
Kitna, who now teaches math and coaches football at his alma mater, Lincoln High School in Tacoma, recounted a few stories from his 16 years in the National Football League, playing with the Seahawks, Cincinnati Bengals, Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys.
The keynote speaker talked about watching the athleticism of such players as Joey Galloway and DeMarcus Ware.
"I got to see some amazing athletic feats when I played football," Kitna said. "It wasn't physically normal, these people were complete freaks."
As much as he enjoys talking about football, Kitna said he can't wait to tell people about Jesus Christ.
"Because of the radical work of Jesus, my world was turned upside down," Kitna said. "I love to talk about Jesus in my life."
Kitna graduated from Central Washington University in 1996 with a degree in secondary math education, intending to teach and coach. He never expected to play professional football, so it was good to get back to Tacoma to help students at Lincoln High, where about 75 percent of students come from families that exist below the poverty level.
That was the plan all along. The calling from God.
Kitna told his audience that one of the common threads among the millions of teens nationwide who won't graduate from high school and who get into drugs and gang violence is that they don't have fathers at home.
"Maybe you raised your children and they are doing well," Kitna said. "That's great, but consider finding somebody who doesn't have a dad and make a difference for them."
He encouraged people to ACT, as in abide, confess and teach. Abide in Christ and follow God's plan. Confess your stumbles and falls to friends who walk along side you. Teach and train young people.
"Right now society is out of control," Kitna said. "We need men who are willing to step up and have an impact."
During the breakfast, longtime organizer Lorrie Hermanson from the YMCA was recognized for her work to put on the event. The Trinity Lutheran College chamber choir performed.

OXFORD, Ohio – It was a back-and-forth match that saw the Miami University volleyball team nearly knock off the defending Mid-American Conference Tournament Champions, but ultimately the RedHawks fell to Bowling Green, 2-3 (25-19, 26-24, 24-26, 22-25, 16-18), to open league play Thursday evening. Miami falls to 8-5 overall and 0-1 in the MAC. The Falcons are 4-9 overall and 1-0 in the MAC.
Sophomore middle hitter Jenny Ingle led the way for the RedHawks on Thursday. She finished with 14 kills and five blocks (one solo and four assisted). She made only two attack errors in 31 attempts, finishing with a hitting percentage of .387.
Freshman middle hitter Paige Hill opened the match with a service ace. That along with two kills by freshman outside hitter Maris Below helped Miami take an 8-3 lead to begin set one. Bowling Green answered back with a 7-2 run to cut the deficit to 10-12 and force a RedHawk timeout. Out of the break, a kill from Hill got Miami back on track. In front, 17-15, a kill from Hill and a block by Hill and senior outside hitter Madison Dodd began a 5-2 run that put Miami in control, 22-17. A kill and a solo block from Ingle, along with a kill from sophomore outside hitter Annie Reiswig gave Miami a 25-19 set one victory.
The Falcons took a 4-1 lead to begin set two. Kills from junior outside hitter/setter Meg Riley and Hill off assists from freshman setter Krista Brakauskas, along with a service ace by senior libero Madison Hardy were part of a 9-3 run that put the RedHawks ahead, 10-7. Bowling Green responded with a 4-1 run of its own to tie the score at 11. From there, neither team would have more than a one point lead until the end of the set. Ingle and Hill each had multiple kills as there were six lead changes during this period. Finally, the Falcons scored a kill to create set point at 24-23. Miami called timeout and responded with a kill from Riley. A BGSU setting error and a service ace by Riley gave the RedHawks a 26-24 come-from-behind win.
Tied at six in set three, the Falcons went on an 8-4 run to go in front, 14-10. Hill had a pair of kills and a block to help the RedHawks pull within one at 16-17, but BGSU answered right back with three straight to push the advantage to four. Miami scored five straight off two kills from Ingle, a kill from Riley, a block by Ingle and Riley and a solo block from Riley to regain the advantage at 21-20. The Falcons went on a 4-1 run to create set point at 24-22. Miami fought it off with back-to-back kills from Ingle and Riley off assists from Brakauskas. Unfortunately the comeback was not meant to be as Bowling Green took the next two points to earn a 26-24 victory.
The RedHawks opened a 6-2 lead to begin set four, punctuated by a service ace from Below. The Falcons responded with an 8-4 run to tie the score at 10. Similar to set two, the middle part of the set remained extremely tight. Tied at 18, two straight attack errors by BGSU gave Miami a two-point advantage. The Falcons responded with four straight points to take the lead back by two. A block by Reiswig and Hill pulled Miami to within one, but the RedHawks were unable to get closer as Bowling Green finished off a 25-22 win.
It looked bleak early for Miami in set five as the Falcons opened a 4-1 lead. After a timeout, a kill from Riley, followed by three straight blocks that Hill assisted on gave the RedHawks a 5-4 advantage. Two kills from Below off Riley assists helped Miami push that lead to three at 8-5. Bowling Green responded with three straight points of its own to tie the score, but a kill from Dodd and a block by Dodd and Hill gave the 'Hawks a 10-8 lead.
Bowling Green fought back with three straight points to take an 11-10 lead. Back-to-back kills by Hill and Ingle gave the advantage to Miami, but the Falcons took it right back with two straight points of their own. A kill by Ingle and a block by Ingle and Riley gave the Red and White match point, but Riley's attack went just long and retied the score. The RedHawks got two more chances to win the match off a BGSU service error and a kill by Below, but each time the Falcons fought it off. Finally tied at 16, Bowling Green scored two straight points to take an 18-16 win and earn a hard-fought five-set victory.
Hill finished with 13 kills, nine blocks and six digs. Riley had a double-double with 11 kills and 25 assists, and also contributed seven digs and seven blocks (one solo, six assisted). Below had a double-double with 10 kills and 10 digs. Brakauskas led Miami with 30 assists, while Hardy had 28 digs. The senior libero is only 22 digs away from breaking Melissa Zenz's ('09) all-time record (when liberos are included) of 1,481 digs for all players at Miami. The RedHawks finished with 15 total blocks in the match.
Miami looks to get back on the winning track when it hosts Western Michigan on Saturday at 5 p.m. The match will air live on Miami All-Access for those who have a subscription.

HDTV – What is it?
High-definition television, or HDTV, is a new way of broadcasting TV programs that is far superior to "regular" TV in both picture and sound. Why the difference?
Key terms:
An integrated HDTVhas a built-in digital ATSC tuner and has resolution of 720p or higher. Since 2007, the majority of new televisions sold have been HDTVs. That is because beginning March 1, 2007, all television reception devices imported into the U.S. or shipped via interstate commerce must contain a digital tuner. Thus, all new TVs sold by retailers should be equipped with a digital tuner. Nearly all also have HD quality resolution, deeming most new TVs to be HDTVs. To receive and display any free and available over-the-air HD broadcasts on your HDTV, all you need to do is purchase an HD antenna. Or you can simply plug into your existing digital cable or satellite set-top box; however, some carriers may charge extra for an HD-compatible set-top box or require you to subscribe to additional programming to receive HD broadcasts.
Contrast Ratio - This refers to the difference between the brightest whites and the darkest blacks a TV can display. The key thing to consider is how "black" your blacks will be. A higher contrast ratio means a deeper black. In addition, a higher contrast ratio also means you can have more ambient light in the room without washing out the on-screen color. As of 2006, contrast ratios range from 300:1 to 5000:1 for home theatre projectors to 10,000:1 on high-end plasma and LCD TVs.
Frame rate – A TV's frame rate describes how many times it makes a complete picture on the screen every second. Again, the higher the number, the faster images are processed. This makes a difference when watching fast-moving action or playing fast-paced video games with lots of action. The two most common numbers you'll see are 720p and 1080i.
What do the "I" and "p" mean? The "I" indicates that the TV draws images using an interlaced method. The "p" indicates that the TV draws images using a progressive scan method. In general, progressive scan renders images faster and produces a more detailed, film-like image.
HDMI – High-Definition Multimedia Interface, or HDMI, is a new type of connector cable that carries both all-digital audio and video signals over a single cable, eliminating the need for separate cables to connect your audio and video components. No more tangled mess of cables! In addition, HDMI cables deliver the best possible digital quality signals for both audio and video.
Response Time - This refers to the time it takes a pixel to change state from black-to-white-to-black again. In general, the faster the response time, the better the picture, especially when viewing fast action in movies, sports, and video games. Plasma and CRT televisions have virtually instantaneous response time, while LCD models tend to be a bit slower. The slower response time can result in what is referred to as "image lag" or a slight blurring of fast-moving images. As of 2007, a "fast" response time is considered to be anywhere from 8msec to 3msec.

We all want our daily commute to be safe and uneventful. We want to reach our travel destinations without incident and at an affordable cost. But whether we'll be able to do that in the future is closely tied to how government manages your federal, state and local tax dollars... and where they spend.

Assad's last hurrah: as he hits Libya-level crisis we look at the parallels
Assad and Gaddafi: age aside, the similarities are obvious. Or are they? Although the Syrian chaos is more often compared to Iraq, we take a look at a less obvious, but quite tempting, parallel to get a feel of whether the end is nigh for the Syrian dictator. Since Libya's downfall came first, we can see the signs of a leader's demise playing out now in Assad's regime.
Today's news that almost half of Syria's second city, the strategic northern Aleppo, is now under control is a stark reminder of the Benghazi rebel stronghold last year. In Libya, the rebels used this point of strength to attack the capital but with loyal supporters still clinging on in Damascus, can the FSA do the same?
And what will become of the now infamous Syrian president? While he gave less delusional speeches than the late Libyan dictator, like Gaddafi, he has given up the battlefield for a safer hiding place but will he face the same grizzly fate once the rebels find him? Some critics have said FSA brutality is a hindrance to a successful post-revolution government. And the Syrian 'rebel's' after all have the advantage of hindsight and learning they can glean from the Libyan story. For Gaddafi, there was no restraint shown in the manner of his murder or the subsequent far-fetched rumors of his resurrection.
Share your thoughts on what stage of the game you think Syria has reached. Is it quite game over for Assad, or does he stand a fighting chance of escaping the ugly finish visited upon Gaddafi?
I am personally convinced that the simiralities between the two is the unrelenting Western Media propaganda, which has surprisingly shifted from professionalism to extreme biase. This is very shameful to say the list. But it is going on.
History and posterity will judge hashly the current media for the crimes it has perpetuated against the truth. But like in all situations, a much fairer media, based on true principles of truth and justice and the values of common good will evolve.

Lindenwood, MO - The Pfeiffer men's volleyball suffered a tough 3-2 loss against Quincy (4-3) in the opener of the 2014 Lindenwood Classic. The Falcons seemed to be poised for the win after capturing a 25-20 third set victory to take a 2-1 lead, but Quincy rallied for the final two sets and the win. Sophomore Sonny Hirini had a career-high 20 kills for the Falcons in defeat.
Wyatt Hamilton and Kyle Landigran also had career-highs in kills with 14 and 13 respectively. The trio combined for 47 of the team's 56 kills on the evening.
Harrison Lutz dished out a game-high 47 assists, also a career best, as he filled in for David Specian.
Quincy had four players in double digit kills, led by 14 from Jarrod Kelso. Quincy hit .232 as a team, while the Falcons posted a .246 hitting percentage.
Pfeiffer had 13 total blocks on the night, led by six from Fabio Diniz and five from Landigran.
Pfeiffer took the first set 30-28 to take the lead. Quincy responded with a 25-19 victory in the second set. In the third frame, Pfeiffer hit .400 as a team and prevailed 25-20. Quincy would not be denied the victory, grabbing the final two sets by scores of 25-23 and 16-14.
Pfeiffer is back in action on Saturday, taking on the host Lindenwood at 9 a.m. and then playing McKendree at 11 a.m.ĀĀ

The $62.5 million expansion of
Since the city's Planning & Zoning Commission unanimously recommended the hospital's rezoning request last week, ARMC is just waiting on council's OK on Dec. 18 before hauling out the heavy machinery.
"We are on time and we are on budget," said Dick Donahey, senior vice president of ARMC.
In May, the hospital announced plans to add on to its emergency department and operating services at the north end of campus, and adding a two-story extension to the Medical Arts building to the south, essentially creating a brand new cancer center.
However, before construction could begin, ARMC needed its whole campus rezoned, since an ordinance change in 2003 rendered it an "legal, nonconforming use," said David Beal, Burlington's assistant planning director.
Originally, Beal said, the hospital's property was zoned as "Office and Institutional," and the ARMC buildings were approved by special-use permits. The 2003 ordinance change called for hospitals to be approved by conditional zoning only.
"You cannot expand a nonconformity," Beal said.
The hospital requested "Conditional Office and Institutional" rezoning for its whole property — both to bring current structures in compliance and to move forward with expansions.
Assuming council gives its approval, construction on both ends of the hospital will begin in January and hopefully wrap up by early 2014, said Bill Payne, director of engineering at ARMC. The two-story north end addition will house the expanded Emergency Department on its first floor and the Operating Services on the second floor.
"We're going to add 27,000 square feet outside our existing Emergency Department," which is 20,000 square feet, Payne said.
The extra space will allow for a total of 58 rooms, which will be divided by type to serve the most pressing emergencies, keep unadmitted patients under observation, or securely keep behavioral patients waiting to be transported to other facilities for long-term care.
"Roughly 60 to 80 percent of our inpatient admissions come through that Emergency Department," said Donahey.
Annually, 58,000 patients go through the department and a projected 70,000 will visit by 2021. "We're sizing it for tomorrow," Payne said.
"Since we're doubling the size of our space, we have to pretty much double our parking," Donahey added.
An additional lot for Emergency Department parking will also be built.
The second floor of the addition will house the expanded Operating Services, where major and minor surgeries are performed, he said.
"We have nine operating rooms now, and we can't expand that," Payne said, explaining the state dictates the number of operating rooms a hospital can have. So instead of making more rooms, the existing nine operating rooms will be made larger.
Payne said the building add-on will hold five new operating spaces, and then rooms six through nine will be rebuilt in existing building space. He said same-day surgery space will also be doubled and all operating rooms will be digital or digital-ready.
At the other end of campus, another two-story addition will expand ARMC's existing
Up the spiral staircase will be the oncology exam rooms, physician and research offices and a chemotherapy treatment area with bay windows.
"The design was to bring in as much natural light … as possible," Payne said.
In the larger treatment area, which will overlook a "healing garden," chemotherapy patients will have the options of receiving treatment in an open, group setting, semi-private or private rooms, Payne said.
The construction will take place in stages. Payne said the plan is to build the Emergency Department and Operating Services addition in eight months, with builders working two shifts, six days a week.
"We're double-timing it," he said.
Once built, Payne said everything in the old spaces will be moved into the new addition, to allow for a four-month renovation of the original building. The
Work will begin immediately after the holidays if approval from the city comes later this
Then, Donahey said, "Construction fences will go up Jan. 3 and we will start moving dirt."

East Rutherford, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - New York Giants starting middle linebacker Jon Beason has a ligament tear and a small fracture in his right foot, but expects to be ready to play by the start of the regular season.
Beason underwent X-rays, an MRI and a CT scan after he was carted off the field during an OTA workout on Thursday. The tests showed a ligament tear and a small fracture to the sesamoid bone below his big toe.
Beason said a return by the team's Sept. 8 opener at Detroit is within the timeframe of his recovery period.
"I expect to be back," said Beason, who was hurt defending a pass play. "If not, I'll be back as soon as I can."
Beason was acquired from the Carolina Panthers during the 2013 season and had 93 tackles and one interception in 12 games for the Giants.

The Chiefs denied the Sharks a second bonus point with a late penalty to win 37-29 in Hamilton.
The hosts started brilliantly and finished well to take five league points from a Super Rugby match that could easily have seen the Sharks finish with five league points.
The South Africans only got one point but it could have been different but for poor decision making in the final 10 minutes.
The Chiefs led 34-26 but the momentum was with the Sharks who won a penalty right in front on 72 minutes. A successful kick would have reduced the home team lead to just five points and made for an anxious last six or seven minutes.
Instead replacement flank Keegan Daniel took a quick tap and the Sharks turned over possession.
The Sharks did take a penalty kick on 78 minutes to close within five points but conceded a penalty in the last minute to lose out on a second bonus point.
The Sharks were as poor as the Chiefs were good in the first 15 minutes as the hosts scored three converted tried to lead 24-0.
Sanity was restored to a match featuring last season's finalists as the Sharks forwards settled and the visitors managed to tighten the game and bring more structure to proceedings.
The Sharks, defensively dire in the first quarter, started making their tackles, won turnovers and gradually gained control of possession. The reward was three tries within 15 minutes and a half-time deficit of just five points at 24-19.
Again the Chiefs struck early in the second half to lead 34-19 before the Sharks, through Daniel, scored the bonus point try.
The Sharks had not scored for 290 minutes in the competition when Lions import Derick Minnie broke the curse. Minnie got a double on the night and impressive fellow loose-forward Lubabalo Mtembu also scored.
Frans Steyn produced a stronger performance at outside centre and was very active throughout.
The Sharks were good in the set phases and dangerous in attack but the slow start and poor decision-making in the last quarter proved decisive.
Chiefs – Try: Asaeli Tikoirotuma, Bundee Aki, Tim Nanai-Williams (2). Conversion: Gareth Anscombe (4). Penalties: Anscombe (2), Aaron Cruden.
Sharks – Try: Derrick Minnie (2), Lubabalo Mtembu, Keagan Daniel. Conversion: Pat Lambie (3). Penalty: Lambie

Reaves' Insurance Goal Helps Women's Soccer to 3-1 Win over Region Rival Catawba
October 6, 2010
Story Courtesy of Catawba Sports Information
SALISBURY, N.C. Pfeiffer University used a pair of early first half goals to defeat host Catawba 3-1 in womens soccer action on Wednesday night at Frock Field. The Lady Falcons improve to 6-4, while the Catawba Indians fall to 5-3-2.
Lady Falcon forward Sheena Regan (Chesapeake, VA) was the first to score in the 19th minute on an assist from teammate Rachael Shapelow (Swan Point, MD). Shapelow then added a goal of her own in the 30th minute as she took a deflected pass that caught Indian goalie Kailey Johnson (Hampstead, NCl) out of position.
Catawbas Athena Bless (Asheboro, NC) responded in the 33rd minute to cut the lead in half. She connected from 25 yards out with a shot in the back upper corner just under the crossbar.
Pfeiffer scored the crucial goal in the 63rd minute to regain a two-goal cushion. Megan Reaves (Mims, FL) knocked home a rolling cross from teammate Megan Weston (Olathe, KS) at the back post.
Pfeiffer goalie Jamie Alcala (Fredricksburg, VA) picked up the win with eight saves. Johnson recorded two saves for Catawba. Lindsey Webster (Hopkinton, MA) started the second half for the Indians and added a save of her own.
The Lady Falcons return to Conference Carolinas action on Saturday heading to Belmont Abbey to face the unbeaten Crusaders. Belmont Abbey is currently ranked #16 nationally and #3 in the southeast region. Match time is set for 2:00 p.m.

|Introduction | Canon EF 135mm f/2.8 lens performance | Canon EF 135mm f/2.8 versus competition | Conclusion
Canon's EF 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus lens blurs images and reality – on purpose. With just a flick of the wrist and lens, the 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus allows photographers to have a "softfocus" in their images. The effect produces a blur and halo throughout the photograph. But how clear are the lens' images when you take away the blur?
Wedding, portrait, and landscape photographers can use Canon's EF 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus lens to create pictures with dream like qualities – the lens allows photographers to add a blur effect, creating heavenly halos around subjects. Relatively affordable and lightweight, the digital version of the 25-year-old EF 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus lens – also capable of snapping razor-sharp images – could be a creative asset in a photographer's lens kit.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
