How much do you pay about for film and do you ever proff with polaroid? What process do you use, paladium, platinum or regular old darkroom wet processing?Quote:

If there is no immediate, driving(money producing) need for higher quality, I'd suggest taking a couple of steps - use a relatively low budget medium format system to determine if that is the right combination of quality and convenience for you.
Low cost($200-$1000) systems such as various TLR, Mamiya TLR systems, Koni Omega will give you experience in the quality improvements possible in medium format, and the cost, low compared to currently professional systems (Hasselblad...) could be recouped if you move to large format or decide to invest in a 'modern' medium format system. You may be moving 'through' medium format to LF or ULF, or this may be meet your end needs. Personally, over the last 5 years I've moved from 35mm to 6x7 for color, and 6x7 or LF(5x7) for B&W.
You may find that MF lets you work in your 'happy spot', or that it is only a temporary step to where your equipment needs to be to let you make the images you want. The only way to know for sure is to try. Go for it!
Personally I would get a decent used system from a well known brand. There are some great used stuff out there for cheap. I would NOT however buy from e-bay, but I'd go to reputable places like B&H, Adorama, Samy's, Henry's or KEH. I am assuming you are in the US or Canada.Quote:

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) - Swiss Lake Yodeler wore down 23-1 shot Rovenna in the final yards to win the $200,250 Soviet Problem Stakes by 11/4 lengths Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park, the next-to-last day of racing at the 75-year-old track.
"(Whittingham) has been an idol of mine from the very beginning," Hollendorfer said. "When I came on the racetrack, everybody in the world knew his name. I'm pleased to break any kind of record he ever held. I'm very humble and grateful."
Sunday will be the final day of racing before the track closes for good to make way for a retail and residential redevelopment.
"Considering this is the end makes me sad, but I've had a lot of good luck here and won a lot races," Hollendorfer said. "I'm going to be sorry to see Hollywood Park go."
Ridden by Rafael Bejarano, Swiss Lake Yodeler ran seven furlongs on Cushion Track in 1:23.90 and paid $3.80, $3 and $2.60 as the 9-10 favorite. Bejarano leads Joe Talamo 33-32 in the jockeys' standings.
Rovenna returned $13.80 and $8.20, while Sprouts was another 21/4 lengths back in third and paid $5 to show.
Global Hottie was scratched by Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert because of an elevated temperature.
Swiss Lake Yodeler has three wins in four career starts and earnings of $235,600.

Waking up each day to a day filled with activities that are enjoyable, fulfilling, engaging and part of an on-going exciting journey is how I design my life. I welcome trying new things, seeing new places, meeting new people and new experiences, as well as change. I seek adventure, without breaking my neck of course. I took a cross country trip a little while back by myself. It was neat exploring the country and having so much freedom. Meeting a wonderful woman and developing a relationship would enable me/us to experience all the awesome things I mention above.

19 Feb 2015 Debaghni is such a great tourguide. Super sweet, funny, approachable and knowleadgable - however Your arrangement with HOHO - Delhi (india) sucks. They were not informed that we were coming, they were rude, their routes are not so tourist friendly and just really lame. Debaghni really saved the tour!
06 Nov 2014 Tour leader, Sabya was extremely knowledgeable and candid on what to do and where to go so my time was well spent on seeing and doing things that I didn't initially think of seeing. He was flexible and sensitive on how the day was going and making adjustments based on my feedback and his expertise. It was a great way to spend my 24 hours in New Delhi.
30 Oct 2014 Sunny did an AWESOME job! He worked around the schedule to get me a private tour earlier than the group tour and it was definitely an amazing experience because he was so personable, knowledgable, and helpful. I could not stop raving to my friends about the great service. Too much food! I felt bad when I could not finish a dish, but I was literally going to get sick by the end because it was simply too much food. Would be better with smaller portion sizes or less stops.
05 Oct 2014 Had trouble finding the hop on hop off bus office to start the tour, but my guide was excellent, Ravi knew his stuff & I couldn't eat all the food, & he delivered me back to my hotel. Great adventure
05 Oct 2014 The guide was great & very knowledgeable. He had a trainee with him but that didn't hinder the tour, it was great to get a small insight into Gandhi's life, really enjoyed the whole experience.
24 Sep 2014 Koni was a fantastic guide and gave me a wonderful introduction to her city. She explained everything in detail so I knew what all the crazy chaos of Delhi meant. This was a wonderful start to my trip.
24 Sep 2014 Sunny was a wonderful guide. He was extremely knowledgable about Gandhi and filled in any history gaps. He was patient as I wandered about absorbing all the details. He also introduced me to Rani of Jhansi - an amazing Indian historical figure that I now plan to read more about. I had a wonderful afternoon and this trip really exceeded any expectations I had of it.
02 Apr 2014 Digvijay was my guide in Delhi and I could not have anticipated a better tour! Being a single female traveler in India, I had some concerns about traveling solo, but this tour was the perfect activity for me. I felt very safe and I felt like we blended into the flurry of the Delhi streets, rather than sticking out as I have felt in the past on guided tours. I would fully recommend this tour to any type of traveler. It is obvious that Digvijay cares about his clients. He made sure that I got to where I needed to be after the tour and I learned so much about the city.
23 Mar 2014 The Delhi food walk was fantastic. It was a great activity for our first day in Delhi. Tushar was a knowledgable and enthusiastic guide, and the food was fantastic! The hop on/hop off bus tour was pretty good - an easy way to see the big sights in an economical way.
22 Mar 2014 Very much enjoyed getting to experience the University neighbourhood in Delhi and the fantastic street food. Would have missed out on many of the sampled foods had it not been for this tour. Guide was very personable. He also set me up for taking cycle rickshaws while in Delhi. Excellent tour.
Our Delhi Urban Adventures team is made up of a passionate and experienced group of individuals from across the broad spectrum of Indian society. They can't wait to share their great love of the city they call home on local Delhi tours of the Spice markets in Chandni Chowk, the city's monuments and temples, its rich heritage and culture, the road towards independence as you learn of Gandhi's life, and even a home cooked meal with a local family. Let us show you the real Delhi on our unique Delhi tours.

At Urban Adventures, we firmly believe local travel is one of the best ways we can support responsible tourism. In fact, we believe it so strongly that we've made it our entire business! All our tours are run by local experts, not some faceless corporate team located halfway around the world with no sense of the local vibe.
We craft our tours to ensure every traveller has authentic interactions with local people, businesses, transportation, and food and drink. Local travel gives you the opportunity to experience a destination as locals do, and has the potential to impact you in ways you never imagined. In short: local is awesome.
As a responsible travel company, we promise to:
- Use locally owned infrastructure on our tours whenever possible.
- Spread the financial benefits amongst local people and operators.
- Provide employment and leadership opportunities for local people.
- Respect local customs and culture.
- Provide safe tours for Urban Adventure partners, staff, and travellers.
- Educate travellers and our partners about how and why we choose to travel this way.
- Limit any negative impact to the daily lifestyles of local people.
- Limit any physical impact on natural and cultural environments.
- Provide support to organisations and local communities.
- Provide opportunities for travellers to interact with local people.
- Actively ban partners, staff, and passenger participation in or endorsement of commercial sexual activities or illegal drug use on Urban Adventures tours.
- Work to prevent the exploitation of children in tourism.
- Actively discourage participation in activities that exploit animals.
- Use local partners that adhere to Urban Adventures' responsible travel principles.
- Support and encourage fair employment practices.
- Give our travellers the best possible value.
- Have fun!
As a traveller, we ask that you keep the following in mind:
- People: Be mindful of the local citizens, and seek understanding through shared experiences. Consider their customs and values while in their homeland, and when in doubt, ask your guide for advice.
- Environment: Be mindful of the local environment, and act with conservation and sustainability in mind. Follow local guidelines, as recommended by your guide, and make proactive decisions on your own.
- Culture: When travelling to other cultures, remember that not everyone's customs are the same as yours at home. Be respectful, and be mindful of openly questioning a customary practice, even if you disagree with it. Try to understand from their perspective. You may learn something! Your guide will be an excellent point of reference here, so check with them if you're unsure.
- Economy: Make every effort to use local businesses and put your tourism dollars in the right (local) pocket. We use local vendors and businesses, and your guide will be able to advise you on the best ways to support the local economy.

Thanks to the other reviews, I also cut the sugar (to 1 cup) and added balsamic vinegar (about 1/3 cup, because we like a vinegar taste). Added a bit of garlic as well. Tasty!
Nice deep flavor. I added less sugar than the recipe called for and a splash of balsamic vinegar, which added another layer and deepened the red color. Served with grilled day-boat scallops and tarragon.
Wish I read the other comments. It was way to sweet for my taste. Threw it out and will add less sugar next time.
This jam is really good and excellent with the rosemary chicken. I followed another comment by adding white wine vinegar as my jam was too sweet. I put it in a jar but didn't do the jarring process and it was fine.
My family really enjoyed it! I made it for the Grilled Rosemary Chicken. I read the reviews from the previous cook so I used only 1cup of sugar and it was perfect.
I thought this was good but it was way too sweet the way it is. I had to add about 1/4 cup vinegar to tone down the sweetness. Next time I make it I would only use 1 cup sugar at most.
Made this with freshly picked ripe tomatoes from the garden and paired with the grilled rosemary chicken. Fabulous! Will definitely make again to use in the winter.

A brand name can make or break a business. Choose a weak, unmemorable name and even a revolutionary product can flop.

CruxCase has just anounced a new Kickstarter campaign for the new CruxSKUNK, a versatile rotating protective keyboard case for the iPad 2 and the New iPad, transforming it into a compact and powerful laptop.
I just took my iPad and iPhone out of my backpack...
Everything was safe and dry.
Why would I think this might be interesting news? Well, I'm known for testing accessories rather aggressively, and the good folks at booq just sent me one of their favorite laptop/tablet backpacks to test. So I promptly hopped on my off-road motorcycle and went for a ride in rocky terrain, during a rainstorm. So yes, the fact that everything was safe and dry was good news.
The booq Mamba daypack is what I'm reviewing today and it's an excellent one!
After months of anticipation and rumored development, Lifeproof, (arguably one of the best protective case manufacturers for iDevices) has produced, and now released, their version of the award-winning Lifeproof case, for the iPad 2 and 3rd generation models.
Called the "nüüd", this new, completely submersible iPad case is a revolution of design and functionality. This cleverly designed case provides a high level of defense for our precious iPads, unlike anything else on the market.
TinyLightbulbs.com is a ingenious young company that specializes in bringing independently funded and crowd funded projects to greater public awareness. Recently they turned me on to a product called The Flex Kit. Here is a case solution that stands out from a very crowded field of iPad cases. Uzibull has created a versatile and unique product, a protective and functional line of accessories for the iPad that is The Flex Kit.
I have been using the Ultraslim leather case review sample for a little bit now. This review is based on the model for my Galaxy Tab 2.0 7" Tablet. However, there are Ultraslim versions available for iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone and the new Nexus 7. I have linked the different models below so you can go right to your device for more info. Regardless of device type and size, the Ultraslim case is essentially the same. (My photos are at the end)
As you will see on their website, "The UltraSlim is the thinnest leather case ever designed for any mobile device. It is perfect for those who prefer zero bulk." I can't sum this review any better than Sena has already said in these two sentences.
Without further ado…..(This is an iPad 2 user, her unedited review below.)
"Speck has designed an iPad2 / iPad (3rdgeneration) case specifically for relaxation – the MagFolio Lounge. This sleek accessory is contoured for resting on your lap or legs and is tailor-made for leisurely use of your iPad. And just in time for off-to-college students who like to study and be comfortable at the same time!
The MagFolio consists of a hard plastic base which accommodates the iPad and sturdy but flexible vegan leather magnetic flap which folds to prop up the iPad into either typing or viewing positions. It took
When searching for the best iPad cases, covers or sleeves, you always look to find the best that fits your needs. Cases should not only protect your tablet, but it should also show a glimpse into your personailty. Articles like the Go Ahead and Brag, with Braggables.com, can help to illuminate what that is.
While you strive to cover your basic needs, you also look for cases that are practical and safe. The Griffin TechSafe Case for iPad 2 Review is a perfect example of when you simply want an iPad case that will work, while at the same time keep your investment safe. Although, perhaps you don't need a case that is built for trade shows and you only wish to protect your tablet while going through your daily activities or travels. The best iPad cases, like the Piel Framma, can help show one of the possible options that can provide an elegant or simple design. The Maroo iPad Case is another example of practicality meets fashionable. Either way, we are confident that our website will guide you to the best cases, covers or sleeves that you want and need.
Another thought to have when considering what cases or cover you want to buy is whether or not it will fit into your car mount. There are several car mounts that won't allow for your device to be in both the mount and its case. So obviously you will need to make sure that the case is compatible. Or perhaps your will always carry your device and want a cover with a handle. Handles on the back can make it safer to hold, but some may not want the extra bulk. These trade offs can help you to see what kind of cover you may want.
What ever your style may be, you can find more than enough here at iPhone Life.

No matter where you drive in southern Indiana or central Kentucky, the black locust, Robinia pseudoacacia, is in full bloom, and a glorious bloom it is. There is nothing like the fragrance of black locust blooms wafting in the air and the Orchard Oriole singing in the trees, or so my wife, Carole, says. I have to admit the blooms smell awesome. Although the tree is not much to look at otherwise, I believe it rivals the beauty of the common dogwood when it is in bloom. Its blooms are also a good source of nectar for honey bees.

Insecticide-impregnated cattle ear tags have been a popular means of controlling pasture flies (horn fly and face fly) for over 20 years. The insecticide in the tag "blooms" from the plastic matrix and is then transferred to the animal's hair coat. Plus, the fly control program travels from pasture to pasture with the animal.

Raekwon's "Unexpected Victory" is one of those albums that I largely missed when it was released because...well....there's no much shit out there that sometimes you just miss dope projects, even ones from a name as heavy as The Chef.

Yep, N.O.R.E. has really released a song titled "Google That." Now what exactly does N.O.R.E. want you to Google? I have absolutely no idea. But my guess is it's probably something that involves gun shots or shootings since the song features a ton of it. I know gunshots in songs are supposed to be somewhat frightening, but the gun shots in "Google That" are actually kinda scary. Listen and download...See more...

text: Will famous lawyer/soon-to-be private citizen Eliot Spitzer be disbarred? Shockingly, maybe not. "Richard Maltz, a former deputy chief counsel at the First Department disciplinary committee, agreed that in cases involving facts similar to those being attributed to Mr. Spitzer, involving a first offense and no apparent aggravating circumstances, the committee is 'very likely' to issue a non-public letter of admonition," but not disbar, reports New York Lawyer. He's also likely to skate on money laundering charges: "Money laundering requires the use of money that is already dirty—the statute starts out with the funds having to be the proceeds of specific unlawful activity and this appears to be clean money," notes Kathryn Keneally, a partner at a firm that specializes in white-collar crimes. "As one of my late mentors said, 'He didn't clean the money, he made it dirty.'" Which is as good a legacy for Spitzer as any we can think of: He didn't clean the money, he made it dirty. [NYL]

Caterpillar filed a complaint for damages and replevin against three defendants. After service on the defendants, they failed to answer, and Caterpillar secured a clerk's default against them all. Two of the defendants attempted to set aside the default and Caterpillar filed its motion for final judgment based upon the clerk's default.
The summary judgment and motions to set aside the default were at the same time. The trial court upheld the entry of the clerk's default and entered final summary judgment in favor of Caterpillar. The final judgment included the award of attorneys' fees based on an affidavit filed by Caterpillar.
The Fourth DCA found that the defaulted defendants were still entitled to have an opportunity to contest unliquidated damages, like attorneys' fees.

Jonathan Aberman, Managing Director, Amplifier Ventures
When CIA director John Brennan announced a reorganization, a big feature was formation of a new directorate. It's aimed at what Brennan calls digital innovation in cybersecurity and other areas. It has a lot of potential for contractors of all sizes. Jonathan Aberman, managing director of the Northern Virginia capital fund Amplifier Ventures and founder of the non-profit business development-oriented TandemNSI, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to further discuss this development.
Dr. Wendy Dean, Tissue Injury and Regenerative Medicine Program Management Office, U.S. Army
You might remember Charla Nash. She's the woman who was horribly disfigured when attacked by a friend's pet chimpanzee back in 2009. The Pentagon has been closely watching her long recovery. More than watching, actually. The Army has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars of Nash's medical bills. The hope is Nash's ordeal can help the military learn to care for disfigured soldiers returning from war. Dr. Wendy Dean, a medical advisor in the Army's Tissue Injury and Regenerative Medicine Program Management Office, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with more on the effort and what the military hopes to learn.
Jason Miller, Executive Editor, Federal News Radio
The Army is moving hundreds of millions of dollars to the OASIS professional services government-wide contract. The Army and the General Services Administration signed a memorandum of understanding Monday with new incentives to use OASIS. Federal News Radio's executive editor Jason Miller joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with details on the new agreement.
David Dye, Federal Human Capital Group, Deloitte
If you believe the surveys, employee engagement has been declining across the federal government for years. A recent Presidential Personnel memo makes the Senior Executive Service accountable for several agencies' employee engagement through the SES performance management system. So how do you go about increasing engagement? David Dye, a director in Deloitte's Federal Human Capital Group, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to offer some answers.

The Federal Headlines is a daily compilation of the stories you hear discussed on Federal News Radio each day. It is designed to give FederalNewsRadio.com readers more information about the stories heard on the radio. In today's news, former CIA director Gen. David Petraeus continues to advise the White House on its strategy related to ISIS and Iraq, House Veterans Affairs Committee Chairman says the VA is withholding reports from the panel and federal improper payment shot up to a record $125 billion last year.
Kevin Brancato, Defense Analyst, Bloomberg Government
Some fresh, new and big federal contracting opportunities are coming. The biggest will be the $60 billion Alliant Two deal, a government-wide acquisition contract the General Services Administration is cooking up. That's according to Bloomberg Government. B-Gov has published its latest list of the top 20 upcoming vehicles. There are the ones contractors simply must have places on. Bloomberg senior analyst Kevin Brancato joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with more on the list.
Emily Kopp, Reporter, Federal News Radio
Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.) represents about 300,000 federal employees. He launched a listening tour of sorts Friday, appearing at the Census Bureau offices in Suitland, Maryland, for a town hall event. Federal News Radio's Emily Kopp was in the audience. She joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with a report.
Jason Miller, Executive Editor, Federal News Radio
Federal chief financial officers are fighting an epic battle over ceding budgetary turf to chief information officers. The Federal Information Technology Reform Act (FITARA) is now law. It gives CIOs control over agency IT budgets. The Office of Management and Budget is working with agencies to implement FITARA, and that's sparked the reaction from the CFOs. In his biweekly feature, "Inside the Reporter's Notebook," executive editor Jason Miller writes about this long-simmering turf battle. He joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to explain.
Julia Ziegler, Web Manager, Federal News Radio
Nobody likes inflation. But when inflation is low, the cost of living adjustments (COLAs) for federal retirees are small, too. At this near mid-point in the fiscal year, it looks like COLAs are going to be pretty skimpy once again. Lots of people are sounding off about it at Federal News Radio.com. Web manager Julia Ziegler joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with some of your comments.
Vince Crisler, Partner, Fortalice Solutions
Over the past year, it seems like every bad cybersecurity scenario that could happen has happened. What might be scarier is the threat you can't see the backdoor embedded in something you buy. A router or switch, for example. Federal agencies and their contractors are under a mandate to ensure cybersecurity not only for the products they buy, but also for the chain of suppliers involved in the manufacturing of finished systems. How do you do that? Vince Crisler, a partner at Fortalice Solutions, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to explain.

Bill Beyer, Partner, Deloitte
Shared services may be the biggest unrealized efficiency move the government can make. The principle is simple: Rather than duplicating the same function in every agency, use a common service provider. So why is the idea so slow to take off? That's what Deloitte and the Partnership for Public Service tried to find out. Deloitte director Bill Beyer, co-author of their new report, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to review the findings.
David Sella, Program Manager, Warriors to Workforce, VA Acquisition Academy
Veterans Affairs' Warriors to Workforce program seems to work. It was one of the 124 programs recently honored by Harvard University's Ash Center with a Bright Ideas award. The VA program is designed to help wounded veterans transition into a new career. David Sella, the program manager of the Warriors to Workforce program, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with more on the program.

Michael Allen, Managing Director, Beacon Global Strategies
Plans to overhaul the CIA are getting mixed reviews. Director John Brennan's plan, announced Friday, would bring operatives and analyticals together to work side-by-side. Critics say objectivity is at risk, while those in favor say the collaboration will produce a more powerful product. Michael Allen, the managing director of Beacon Global Strategies and former majority staff director of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to explore the changes and what they mean.
Tim Fullerton, Director of Digital Strategy, Interior Department
At last, spring is almost here. And to celebrate, the Interior Department, together with the Agriculture Department, wants to help people locate their nearest national park or maybe some other federally-managed property they might not know about. They're hosting a hackathon in April, and hope Web developers will create apps for travelers. Tim Fullerton, the director of digital strategy at Interior, joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin with more on the hackathon.
Alan Chvotkin, Executive VP and Counsel, Professional Services Council
For more than 20 years, a driving principle behind federal procurement is a simple one: To the extent possible, the government should buy regular commercial items under regular commercial terms and conditions. That idea is enshrined in law and regulation. So when it doesn't happen, companies protest. In a dispute between contractor CGI Federal and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the U.S. Court of Appeals reaffirmed that commercial principle. Alan Chvotkin, executive vice president and counsel at the Professional Services Council, joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin to explain why the ruling is so important.

Nancy Potok, Chief Operating Officer, Census Bureau
The White House is putting enterprise risk management front and center as it updates a key policy on internal controls. That should be out later this year, but some agencies already have embraced the concept. The Census Bureau did so after a crisis several years ago that was embarrassing and costly. Nancy Potok was the Bureau's chief financial officer back in 2000. She left the agency but returned in 2012 as its deputy director and chief operating officer. Federal News Radio Reporter Emily Kopp spoke to Potok after a presentation on enterprise risk management.

The University of Manchester Selects Lancope's StealthWatch Network Behavior Analysis for End-to-End Network Visibility, Accelerated Troubleshooting and Improved Security Management
As Britain's largest single-site university, The University of
"We have a large, complex network with a lot of unmanaged desktop machines," said
After spending weeks investigating and resolving an incident involving suspiciously high traffic levels to and from certain network services, The University of Manchester IT staff realized it needed a solution for improved network visibility. First they investigated intrusion prevention systems (IPS), but soon realized that IPS technology could not provide a holistic view of the campus network without a huge expense.
"Khipu Networks, our Lancope reseller, suggested network behavior analysis technology and arranged a trial of StealthWatch," said Arnold. "We found StealthWatch so useful right away; it delivered exactly what we wanted, so we decided to deploy it on our network."
The University of
With detailed visibility insight into network traffic patterns, link utilization and overall network performance – all from a single dashboard, StealthWatch dramatically accelerates network and security troubleshooting.
Prior to StealthWatch, investigating network events was a cumbersome, time-consuming process. "Individual system administrators had to manually gather information from their system and then come together to correlate behaviors in an attempt to pinpoint the source of the problem," said Arnold. "Now we simply access the StealthWatch Management Console for a consolidated view of network traffic and behavior. The system is incredibly flexible and tunable as well."
Using StealthWatch, The University of Manchester IT staff has spotted trouble on the network before it was noticed anywhere else. And, it has saved valuable time in identifying specific users who have accessed a particular system.
According to Arnold, "StealthWatch will improve our customer service and keep us more proactive when it comes to addressing network behavior and security incidents."
"Khipu Networks partners with Lancope because we see StealthWatch as a 'no-brainer' solution for any organization seeking holistic network visibility and performance management without the cost and complexity of deploying in-line technologies. Furthermore, StealthWatch easily scales to accommodate any network throughput, which for Universities sector often means Gigabit and more," said
"Universities maintain large, complex networks that require continuous visibility and control, but often lack the resources necessary for optimal network performance and security demands," said

Michigan Insurance Commissioner Kevin Clinton says he's working to save the state's no-fault auto insurance system, countering a county official's comment that the regulator was trying to "dismantle" benefits for crash victims. "Large, national insurance companies have told me that they do not want to write automobile insurance in Michigan because of the unlimited medical benefits and the impact of the [Michigan Catastrophic Claims Association] on their financial ratings. More competition and no-fault reforms would help hold down premiums," Clinton said.

Here's a little step by step on how i made surprised bunny... he has no name yet cos i am selling him and if i name him i won't be able to let him go!
First build a skeleton from pipe cleaners!
Wrap skeleton in white merino wool tops, making sure to pad out hands and feet and any areas you may want to stand out. You can use merino for this but i use off cuts from previous felting projects.
Layers of merino are added and needle felted slightly to keep in place, you don't want too much fine detail at this stage as it will move a little as you begin to wet felt.
Pay attention to areas around the neck and ears and joints. These will need a little poking with a felting needle to make sure they hold in place, other wise the white will show thru
Half way wet felted, just his belly and back to go.
Start wet felting by sprinkling a little hot soapy water on the rabbit. Start with feet and hands, then ears and face. You need to use a massaging motion to get the fibres to knit together
Wet felted and now ready for the washing machine. I like this part you get an element of randomness and never know what they will look like when the come out!
Felt the rest of the rabbit the same way, don't forget the back and pay particular attention to joints. Also make sure you felt the crotch or the body slips down the legs and you end up with a stunted bunny!
And he came out of the washing machine looking like this... not a happy bunny!
Then put bunny in a pillow case and tie with string. he needs to go in the washing machine... i put mine in at 40 degrees. Don't panic when he comes out like this, you then need to gently pull him into shape.
Last stage, i needle felt his tail and features on.
Finally add beads for eyes and sit him on a shelf. This one is a bit shock after everything he has been thru!
sooooo lovely , i m ust tell you that because of you great tute i have learned myself to make felted needle animals too.
but i always felt them later on by t he washing machine some more to make them durable ;-D
sooooo thank you a lot , you're my great teacher.;-D
So...I was researching felt food tutes for the swap when I came across this. He is SO freaking cute. Awesome tutorial by the way. I was wondering what "wet felt" was and how you do it. The only felt I've ever heard of comes in 8x12 (usually) squares and I don't think anything happens to it when it gets wet. I don't know, I've never made anything out of felt.
Wow, that was long. sorry!
Oh my gosh! Too cute! I want one!
I wanna try felting, its something ive not tried b4!
LOL So cute!
So cute, thanks so much for the tutorial!
Thank you so much for the tutorial. This is really cute and just in time for Easter gifts!

Baltimore, MD December 19, 2011 The University of Maryland School of Medicine Department of Surgery is continuing to secure research opportunities to advance the science of medicine and improve patient outcomes, as evidenced by the grants awarded to the Department by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Grants are competitively secured and reflect strongly on the qualitative excellence of the University of Maryland programs.
According to new data just released by the NIH, the Department of Surgery has the most NIH research funding of any department of surgery in the state of Maryland and in Washington, D.C. The new funding data is for fiscal year 2011, which began November 1, 2010 and ended October 31, 2011.
In a time when the NIH is being asked by the federal government to cut its budget per year, the Department of Surgery continues to obtain funding for biomedical research despite increasingly competitive NIH requirements. In 2005, the Department of Surgery was ranked 17th in the nation for NIH funding, and it is now a top 10 program.
"NIH research funding is an objective measure that we use to reflect the excellence and quality of our research program as we develop the latest treatment options for patients," says Stephen T. Bartlett, M.D., professor and chair, Department of Surgery, University of Maryland School of Medicine. "We have built this department with the goal of becoming a top three NIH-funded research program. We instigate a culture of research within our clinical faculty from the moment they join our institution."
Recently, a five-year $23,634,445 grant was awarded to Richard N. Pierson, III, M.D., professor of surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and director, Surgical Care Service, VA Maryland Health Care System. The grant is to study coagulation control in lung and liver xenografts.
Other recent, notable NIH awards include basic science and preclinical research of:

Twenty-three years ago today, the Internet Engineering Task Force first met with the mission of developing Internet standards. You know, seeking agreement on minor things like TCP/IP and Internet protocols, so that routers and packets and switches would all cooperate with one another in order to bring you cool things like what we've cooked up this week:
- Status on steroids: If you've set up your Yahoo! Profiles page, you've been reaping the benefits of Yahoo!'s new social capabilities. Today, Yahoo! Profiles ventures beyond these purple walls to include updates from more than 20 sites. That means that you can now see when a contact posts a new review on Yelp, uploads to SmugMug, uploads a video to YouTube, blogs on Blogger, rates a song on Pandora, or tweets on Twitter. The world's getting smaller as we speak. More here.
- Piping hot news: What do you get when you combine Yahoo! News with Twitter? A breaking news search engine. Yahoo! engineer Vik Singh took his brainchild, Yahoo! BOSS (or Build Your Own Search Service), and put it to use to create what he calls TweetNews. It's a clever mashup that takes stories on Yahoo! News and combines them with topics that are spiking on Twitter -- a new way to find news that is both timely and important. And another great marriage of traditional and social media. Give it a whirl. More here and here.

Please note: the work is framed under Denglas.
"Draken, Göteborg" is part of Hiroshi Sugimoto's "Theatres" series, begun in the late 1970s and shot throughout the world, in which the artist positions himself at the rear of a cinema and fixes the shutter at a wide aperture for the duration of the movie. The result is a haunting effect in which the movie screen becomes a glowing blank canvas and the architectural details of the theater, bathed in the screen's glow, appear in eerie focus. By allowing cinematic run time to dictate his film's exposure, Sugimoto creates a singular commentary on time, space, and the filmic arts. The present work was taken in a movie theater in Göteborg the same year that the artist received the prestigious Hasselblad Award in that city.
Hiroshi Sugimoto (Japanese, b. 1948) is a contemporary photographer known for his highly stylized photographic series exploring the properties of light and time. Born in Japan, Sugimoto initially studied politics and sociology at St. Paul's University in Tokyo, but in 1970 enrolled at the Art Center College of Art and Design in Los Angeles to study fine art. He subsequently moved to New York. Influenced by Dada and Surrealist techniques and aesthetics, Sugimoto photographed movie and opera houses, natural history dioramas, and wax figures, using long exposures to create eerie scenes with unnatural lighting. Sugimoto is also a practicing architect, and has designed specific spaces to exhibit his photography; his interest in architecture is also evident in his numerous photographs of old buildings. He has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts, and has had solo exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY (1995); the Guggenheim Museum, New York, NY (2000); the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, CA (2000); the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC (2006); and Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin, Germany (2008), among many others. He lives and works in New York, NY.

This afternoon, my "Invest in America, Commit to the Future" bus tour stopped in downtown Dayton, Ohio, where I had the chance to tour the I-75 modernization project currently under way.
I met with workers who aren't just repairing this highway, they're also increasing its capacity, so that tens of thousands more vehicles will be able to travel this road every day. In order to keep up with our growing population, a third lane is being added.
The project is also bringing needed safety improvements to the area by removing left-hand exit and entry ramps. The last phase of this project reduced crashes at a spot once known as "Malfunction Junction" – but I doubt it'll have that name anymore.
This morning, I traveled to Pickaway County, Ohio to kick off my "Invest in America, Commit to the Future" bus tour. Over the next five days, I'll be traveling to eight states – and logging roughly 2,000 miles – to raise awareness about the difference transportation can make in our country and the importance of investing in better transportation – and a brighter future.
There's no better example than the work taking place right now in Pickaway County to improve our ability to move freight in Ohio and across the country.
This road project received $16 million from DOT's TIGER program. And it's a worthwhile investment because it's going to make a difference in the lives of hundreds – if not hundreds of thousands – of Americans.
Help us keep America moving
On the bus next week, I'll visit communities where investment in transportation is making a big difference in people's lives--where it allows them to get to a job or college, where it makes moving a farmer's goods to market easier, and where it creates new jobs.
But it's a big country, and I can't see it all in a single week, and I won't be able to hear everyone's stories on one trip. So I could use your help...
As many of you know, Secretary Foxx is about to embark on his "Invest in America, Commit to the Future" bus tour. It's great to know that the first step in his trip involved safety.
That's right, before finalizing his plans, the Secretary "Looked Before He Booked" using the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's SaferBus app. The app is available for iPad and Android devices, and it allows you to check the safety record of your motorcoach carrier before going on a trip.
Secretary Foxx had a little help from FMCSA Administrator Anne Ferro, but as the video below shows, the app is easy to use. And, it allows you and your loved ones to travel with confidence.
This morning, I announced that I will spend the next week traveling across the country with a simple message: Americans across the country need new and better transportation options to help them get to school, get to work or start a business; the President has proposed a way to do all this without adding to the deficit...if we can get Congress to say "yes" to investing in America by committing to a multi-year transportation bill.
Transportation connects Americans to opportunity. From the canals built just after our independence to the transcontinental railroad to the interstate highway system, better transportation has always led this nation to greater prosperity...
When we talk about Connected Vehicles, we're talking about vehicles that use basic wireless technology to talk to each other, to mobile devices, and to roadside infrastructure such as traffic signals. And, believe it or not, these vehicles are in the fast lane toward deployment and implementation on America's roads.
When vehicles and roadway infrastructure exchange information with each other, we have the potential to make our transportation system significantly safer, smarter, and greener.
Building on our momentum, we have released a Request for Information (RFI) to help bring the promise of connected vehicles to some of our roads even sooner...
One sign of spring that drivers across the country are sure to notice is the appearance of orange cones indicating road work. As the road construction season begins in earnest, National Work Zone Awareness Week reminds drivers to slow down, pay attention, and drive safely in work zones.
In 2012, 609 people died in highway work zone crashes. That's an increase of 19 fatalities from 2011, and it's 609 too many. You might be surprised to know that nearly four in five victims of work zone crashes are not highway workers, but drivers and their passengers.
During World War II, railroads and rail workers were essential to our war effort and to our economy. From 1942 to 1943, Jack Delano of the Federal Office of War Information took thousands of photographs of railroad workers, mostly in the Chicago area.
Now, thanks to the Center for Railroad Photography & Art, more than 60 of Delano's photographs of the Chicago railroad community are on display in a new Chicago History Museum called "Railroaders: Jack Delano's Homefront Photography." On Saturday, I attended the exhibit's opening along with hundreds of the rail workers' family members who helped the Center for Railroad Photography & Art tell their stories...
The morning of September 16, 2013, brought tragedy to those working at the Washington Navy Yard and their families. As members of the Navy Yard community, we at DOT share the sad memory of this senseless event, but sometimes in the darkest moments we can find heroes to provide spots of light.
The Navy Yard was filled with heroes that morning, men and women who risked their lives to help their co-workers evacuate the building to safety. I'm proud to say that DOT had a couple of heroes of our own, Noah Smith and Laurie Flaherty of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. And last week, the American Ambulance Association honored them with awards for valor...
Last October, Volpe --our National Transportation Systems Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts-- launched an eight-session speaker series on Transportation System Resilience, Extreme Weather, and Climate Change. Given the tremendous damage imposed by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, the long snow-filled winter we're emerging from, and the dramatic climate events predicted for the future, this series is tackling a very important challenge.
Soon after President Obama rolled out a comprehensive Climate Change Action Plan, last summer, I had the pleasure of kicking off this important series at Volpe. It's designed to explore transportation system resiliency and the escalating threats our changing climate poses on our transportation system...
