GotLunch! seeking Ashland donations
ASHLAND — It has been determined that it takes $110 to feed one child for the 10 summer vacation weeks that the GOT LUNCH? program provides food for the children of Ashland and Holderness.
This program seeks to provide healthy lunches each week for children in the elementary grades. Sign up will begin at
both Ashland and Holderness schools shortly. Only healthy foods, including a protein source and fresh fruit and vegetables are put into each week's lunches In addition, milk vouchers are also provided.
Volunteers pack lunches in tote bags each Monday during the summer at St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Ashland and drivers from Ashland and Holderness deliver them to the children's homes. The bags must be returned to the drivers each week for re-filling the following week.
Food prices are rising and every effort is being made to keep costs down and still provide the quality food that GOT LUNCH? requires. None of this would be possible without the generous help of our faithful donors. Would you or your business become a donor this year?
Checks may be sent payable to:
Got Lunch – Ashland and Holderness, c/o Anne Lamson, 3 White Mountains Court Apt. 6, Ashland, NH

The Night Owl
What a HUGE day in the BB house!! This morning started out with the draw for veto players and the MVP nomination ceremony. When the feeds came back we learned that Amanda had been nominated by America as the MVP nomination. Ohh the glorious fireworks that followed. There was much scrambling all over the house by everyone except for Howard, Spencer, and Candice who all sat back quietly and just listened.
Amanda freaked out a little of course as did McCrae. Judd (lacking some nicotine in his diet at the time) actually freaked out more than Amanda or McCrae, and the Howard and Candice bashing and speculation began.. "He has a magic power!" "He has the Coup De Tat!" "He is DEFINITELY MVP!" "He is sitting there trying to pull at people's heart strings to stay in the house!". This actually went on for HOURS until time for the veto comp to actually begin. At one point in the afternoon both Judd and Amanda had civilized conversations with Howard asking him if he had the MVP or any kind of "special power". He tried to explain himself to both of them, but neither really believed him much.
When the feeds returned after the competition we learned that Spencer had actually won the veto. The players were actually Aaryn, Amanda, Spencer, Howard, Candice, and Jessie. Spencer had a short conversation with Judd in which he told him "look, Howard is actually on your side". This seemed to calm him down a bit from the rant he had been on for most of the day.
Candice went to Jessie and rather aggressively asked her about the vote and if she still wanted to get Amanda out. Jessie told her she would be going with the house and more she would be voting however Helen told her to vote. Candice knows that she will be the replacement nominee for Spencer, but she is trying to save she and Howard both. Jessie then went and told Judd about the conversation because she was worried it would get back to Amanda that she had wanted her out of the house and told Candice as much. Judd later had a conversation with Jessie telling her that if they needed to make a big move this week to just let him know. He said that he would consider keeping Howard if Howard wold campaign for himself, but that since Candice was doing it for him, he didn't want to do it.
While Jessie was having this conversation with Candice, Helen was in the storage room questioning Elissa about whether or not this would be the week to get Amanda out or not. They both agreed that it might be the time because they don't know how they would get her back on the block again, but they also flip flopped back and forth saying it would probably be better to do it a different week.
Helen later had a conversation with Candice in which Candice asked her as a friend and an alliance member to please try to help her save herlself and Howard and make a deal with she, Howard, and Spencer. Helen kept saying she would see what she could do, but that the votes were not there. She told Candice that Andy hates Howard and that there is no way Judd would vote to keep him. She claimed to not be aligned with Amanda and McCrae. Candice told her that it looked to her like she WAS aligned with them since she was so worried about keeping Amanda and Aaryn happy rather than keeping she and Howard both in the house. This prompted Helen to storm out of the room and go on a rampage.
Helen started her rampage by going outside with her glass of wine in hand and telling everyone she needed a cigarette after that conversation. So she had one. After she was done smoking she pulled Jessie into the cockpit and told her that this is NOT the week to get Amanda out. She told her that she had been "bullied" by Candice and "threatened" by her and that she flatly told her NO, I want Howard OUT of this house this week. This actually isn't true at all...Helen told Candice she would do everything she could to get Jessie's vote and try to keep Howard in. Anyway, she didn't stop with Jessie. Helen THEN went up to the HOH room and dragged jessie along so they could tell Amanda what a "bully" and crazy person Candice is. Helen really reveled in all the tales she told about how horribly Candice had treated her and how threatened she felt.
While Judd and Howard played pool outside and Candice and Elissa talked in the cockpit, the rest of the house gathered in the HOH room around Helen to have a good old fashioned "bash Candice" session where they all said really nasty things about her. The charge was mostly led by Helen and GinaMarie who can't stand to be near Candice.
While the HOH crew were bashing Candice, she was downstairs with Howard crying to Elissa about how she felt betrayed by Helen in discovering that Helen was more loyal to Amanda than her. She felt hurt that Aaryn was still in the house and she had actually helped Helen keep her, but now Helen wouldn't help Candice in return.
Somehow, Elissa being Elissa, managed to take the conversation about Candice and how she was feeling off to crazy train land. She got very offended out of nowhere and started talking about the "super unfair disadvantage of MVP" that she came into the house with and how much it had hurt her. She went off about this for a while, but I really didn't understand any of it. She also went off about how Howard wasn't in the room while Candice was crying and how her husband would NEVER do that. I mean I know I don't like any or the Reilly's and I don't enjoy having Elissa in the house, but on a serious note, I actually think she might be seriously insane. Certifiable...
After this talk, Howard and Candice came together to talk a little about their separate conversations. Candice told Howard about Elissa's feelings on how she had been crying and he wasn't in there. Howard then made an attempt to try to explain to Elissa that he felt that Candice would be okay since Elissa was in the room with her. Elissa got super dismissive with him and told him she thinks it's weird and "doesn't understand because she doesn't have anything to do with anything in the game, so why are they talking". After she left, Candice and Howard continued to discuss all that was going on with the campaign and all the ways it was not working.
While Candice and Howard were talking, Elissa went to Amanda and McCrae to vent about how she was "borderline offended" by Candice crying in her presence and talking to her along with Howard because she and Howard are not friends... I can't make this stuff up, she really talks like this you guys. Amanda of course being on a campaign herself to stay, told Elissa "oh yeah, she is using you." as if Amanda has NEVER used Elissa for her MVP power.
The house is winding down a little bit now...even though drunk Helen just told Judd, Amanda, McCrae, and Andy that Candice threatened her that she was going to take all of them down if Helen didn't make them vote to keep Howard. Helen is seriously out of control. Someone PLEASE give that woman her curfew back before she sinks the season. Candic
This should be an interesting week. I would put money on Amanda staying and Howard going. I'm positive it will go that way, but watching them all mob mentality together against Candice and Howard is interesting, if not a little disturbing. It's a hell of a lot better than a boring week of just knowing Howard is going without anyone squirming. As always you guys can follow me on twitter @ashes2ashes13 for more overnight updates. Until tomorrow night...
Oh, and PS - Spencer spent a lot of the night talking shit about McCrae and has now been kissing his ass in the hammock for about an hour, but that didn't seem overly important.

The Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) is considering presenting a counter proposal to American Eagle Airlines, after the carrier offered its pilots 60 new aircraft in exchange for a new contract.
"We may be passing a counter offer to the company tomorrow," says William Sprague, chairman of the ALPA American Eagle master executive committee. "We need a larger commitment of aircraft than what the company is offering in order to move in the direction they have demanded."
The American Airlines Group regional subsidiary offered its pilots at least 60 Embraer 175 aircraft in a proposal submitted to the pilots union in December, according to an employee newsletter from the regional carrier's chief executive Pedro Fabregas on 1 January.
He says that American Eagle will seek other "cost competitive" placement options for the 60 aircraft if it does not reach a tentative agreement with the union by 10 January.
"Our idea of 'cost competitiveness' differs significantly from what the company is demanding in concessions," says Sprague. "They refuse to provide financial data to support their position."
American Eagle declines to comment on the negotiations.
In September 2013, ALPA rejected an offer from American Eagle management to operate at least 30 76-seat regional aircraft due to its inclusion of a new B pay scale with different pay and benefits for new hires. Sprague called the proposal "untenable" at the time.
Pilots at PSA Airlines, also a subsidiary of American via its merger with US Airways on 9 December, agreed to an amendment to their contract and will operate the aircraft, which are Bombardier CRJ900s, when deliveries begin in the second quarter of 2014.
American ordered the 60 E-175s and 30 CRJ900s in December, as part of a regional refleeting deal that had been in the works for nearly a year. Deliveries of the 76-seat E-175s will begin in the first quarter of 2015.
The airline has options for another 40 CRJ900s and 60 E-175s.

This is a major overkill book if you aren't running a huge operation. There is a lot of information, but you could get the same info from going to the pet store and asking their staff, or just reading the label on your dog food bag/can.
Pros: It's got a lot of information
Cons: You could get the same info from the pet store

Duraceramic verses stone tile
We are builiding a new CIF home and can't decide on the flooring. I had Duraceramic picked out for about 900 sq foot of the house. I really like the Taverine stone tile. What would wear the best over time. It is for the kitchen, baths, mud room and pantry. We put cheap ceramic tile in our house we are selling in the kitchen and I love it. I know it is colder than the Duracermic tile but i do love the look of the stone tile. We are thinking of putting the heating in the master bath. We have the some of the best builders and they cut no corners. Everyone who sees it is amazed at the detail. I want to have the same affect on the finishing products. Any input would be helpful.
Do an extensive search for Duraceramic, it has its issues. There is no way Duraceramic can be compared to the real thing.:)
i am looking to buy duraceramic tiles by congoleum colour cs23 midnight gray 5 boxes size 15 x 15 in the uk

Niche dating sites are the fastest growing sites on the Internet, according to Spira, and those that capitalize on celebrities and provide the visuals to engage users.
"It's a clever way of getting people to enter the onling dating industry," she said. "I give them credit for creating buzz."
"It's a wonderful idea, I love it," said Mark Brooks, an online dating analyst for Courtland Brooks. "It's such a sea of ubiquity and most in that sea sure have people and they may even have the matching algorhythm, but there aren't many stand-out sites to choose from."
"From the business perspective, it's brilliant," he said. "You get people talking which is hard to do with Internet dating. They looked at [the dating site] Hot or Not and have gone one better?I can guarantee it will be knocked off quickly."
When guided by looks alone, Lee said Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are "number one when it comes to physical beauty, especially now that [he] has shaved his beard."
Other "perfect matches," according to Lee were Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubrey before they split, as well as Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith and Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson, who are "beautiful, but they're rarely photographed together."
As far as mismatches, In Touch readers cite Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony who "look slightly mismatched but personality-wise, they really make it work," she said. The oddest couple might be Evan Rachel Wood and Marilyn Manson.
Lee said CanDoBetter just might appeal to its members because, "It's human nature to want to talk about other people. To be polite in social situations, most people suppress that side of themselves, so sites like this one tap into that desire to connect and judge."
"We all tell ourselves that looks don't matter, but that's obviously not entirely true," said Lee. " In dating surveys, a great sense of humor and intelligence often rank very high but, honestly, most people wouldn't meet and fall in love if it weren't for that initial physical attraction, right? "
But Joe Tracy, publisher of Online Dating Magazine, said CanDoBetter's contest is a distorted measurement of attractiveness.
"Attractiveness is not just based on physical looks, but also on personality," he said. "In essence, CanDoBetter.com is not a true measure of total attractiveness."
"Sites like CanDoBetter.com contribute to a social misconception that is popularized by Hollywood," said Tracy. "And as a result, it feeds into the falsehood that the only people worth dating are those that have a certain look. It does a disservice to society as a whole."

FRANKFORT, Ky. -- Six weeks since a presidential disaster declaration was signed for Kentucky on June 10, more than $34 million in grants and low-interest disaster loans has been approved to assist residents who suffered damages from severe storms and floods, according to disaster recovery officials from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and Kentucky Emergency Management (KyEM).
Federal, state, local and voluntary agencies are working in partnership to help Kentuckians throughout the disaster recovery process. The following is an update of their activities:
- 9,072 individuals from the 78 disaster-declared counties have called to apply for aid (see county specific application numbers and grant figures on page 2).
- $12,088,090 has been approved for repairing disaster-damaged, uninsured or underinsured homes to a safe, sanitary and functional condition and for temporary disaster rental assistance.
- $6,527,733 has been approved for Other Needs Assistance, which may include grants for medical, funeral, personal property, transportation and other eligible expenses.
- 331 applications for U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) low-interest home and business disaster loans have been approved, totaling $15,051,600.
- 2,048 people visited the Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) while they were operating in affected areas. All DRCs are now closed.
- 7,872 housing inspections to verify applicant losses have been completed, with most inspections being completed within two days of initial registration. 98% of requested inspections are completed.
- 103 Public Assistance projects totaling more than $1 million have been approved to reimburse state, local and public sector agencies for disaster-related costs.
- Seven long-term recovery committees, made up of local and state voluntary agencies, have been formed in the affected areas of the state to identify and provide assistance for long-term needs.
Residents and business owners in the disaster declared counties who sustained damage or loss may apply or check their application by calling 1-800-621-FEMA (3362) or, for the hearing and speech impaired, (TTY) 1-800-462-7585. Phone lines are open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (EDT/CDT), Monday through Saturday, until further notice.
On March 1, 2003, FEMA became part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. FEMA's continuing mission within the new department is to lead the effort to prepare the nation for all hazards and effectively manage federal response and recovery efforts following any national incident. FEMA also initiates proactive mitigation activities, trains first responders and manages the National Flood Insurance Program and the U.S. Fire Administration.

The benchmark BSE Sensex dropped over 34 points in opening trade on Monday as funds and retail investors indulged in reducing positions on weak Asian cues amid fears over the growing crisis in Iraq.
Besides, a cautious approach adopted by participants ahead of wholesale inflation data for May to be released later in the day, also influenced the sentiments.
Stocks of realty, metals, capital goods, consumer durables, PSUs, oil & gas and banking sectors led the fall.
The 30-share Sensex fell by 34.29 points, or 0.14%, to trade at 25,193.88. It had lost 348.04 points in the previous session on Friday. The 50-share NSE Nifty, which had lost 107.80 points in Friday's trade, fell by 16.05 points, or 0.21%, to 7,526.05.
Apart from profit-booking by retail investors, a weakening trend in the Asian region on worries over escalating violence in Iraq, dampened the trading sentiments here, brokers said.
Among other Asian markets, Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell by 0.07%, while Japan's Nikkei shed 0.62% in early trade on Monday. The US Dow Jones Industrial Average ended 0.25% higher in Friday's trade.

Top Gear drives Bond's Aston DB5
As AM reveals 007's DB10 for Spectre, here's what happened when we drove the original Bond Aston
Posted: 04 Dec 2014
Drive a decent 'classic' car and the odds are you'll be confronted by an enormous, wood-rimmed wheel, through which you can sense everything. Forget the faddish modern item, with its over-nourished rim and fancy electro-hydraulic gubbins: this is what steering feel really means.
An Aston Martin DB5 is unquestionably a decent classic. It's also a truly beautiful object. This is actually the second one I've driven. It rained the first time I tried one, and every greasy roundabout redefined the meaning of the word fear.

Having used both over the years, we have no problem with the idea of loose-footed mains. They make for easier outhaul adjustment because there is less friction in stretching the foot. Some make much of the "shelf" and its "endplate" effect on the efficiency of a sail with a boltrope foot. We have found that when the outhaul is stretched for beating the gap tends to close up on the boom anyhow.
Off the wind you get a more uniform shape right down to the bottom of the sail.
If your sailing involves removing the mainsail between outings, a loose-footed sail is easier to bend on and unbend at the end of the day.

Ain't it funny, how I spend my whole life running
Reaching for the sky high and coming down with nothing
from Chris Brown – 4 Years Old Lyrics on Genius
Chris is being sarcastic, commenting that it's ironic and sadly amusing that he worked so hard throughout his career, trying and striving to reach the place he wanted to be. When he got there, he realized that things weren't exactly sunshine and rainbows and it was a lot less than he expected and wanted.

Styles for Skiing and Après
Remo Ruffini, president and creative director of Italian luxury sportswear label Moncler, doesn't just design ski-friendly outfits; he enjoys skiing so much that he hits the slopes of St. Moritz "almost every weekend."
When selecting outfits for ski weekends, Mr. Ruffini, who is based in Como, Italy, says comfort is his top priority. "When you're going down [the slope], you need to have the comfort to be able to move your arms in the right way," says Mr. Ruffini, who makes sure to move his arms when he tries on ski outfits.
"Another important thing is to have everything be very, very light," he says. "When you're skiing, you have to keep warm but you don't want to feel something very heavy on top." Mr. Ruffini tends to seek out jackets that come with a detachable down layer that he can remove for warm days or city outings.
Aesthetically, he has a basic philosophy when putting together ski ensembles. "I want to dress like I'm dressing in the city," says Mr. Ruffini. To that end, he generally avoids sporty, bright-colored ski looks, favoring pieces in gray, navy blue or black. He likes to pair a ski jacket bearing a dark green and blue tartan print with gray, wool-lined pants and brown leather gloves, for example.
"I want to be able to go from skiing to the lounge or the restaurant at the top of the mountain," he says, noting that he can also use darker-colored ski jackets for motorcycling or going out to dinner in the city.
As for après-ski, Mr. Ruffini avoids one look that he sometimes sees. "I don't like oversized sweaters, oversized trousers and oversized jackets—it looks sloppy," he says. "Fit is still important in the ski look."
Instead, he sticks with his penchant for darker colors. He typically pairs gray wool or velvet trousers with sturdy-looking khaki or camel-colored leather or suede boots and slightly chunky two- or three-gauge sweaters in dark brown or blue. Even though these sweaters are relatively heavy, Mr. Ruffini makes sure that they are cut narrowly so they still look chic.

Nathaniel and I have a slight addiction to trying new vegetable varieties. Really. We are obsessed. This year, as we sought the prettiest, most vigorous, and least breakable lettuces for the grocery store, we tried over 8 different types of butter lettuce alone (Optima and Skyphos dominated the competition). We searched high and low for heat loving crops that could mature quickly in our Mediterranean climate (so we grew 4 kinds of eggplants, 3 watermelon, 2 cantaloupe, 5 peppers, 3 corn). There was a good chance, none of these would work out, but in this atypical toasty summer of ours most worked, but Early Moonbeam watermelon, Diamond Eggplant, PMR Delicious Cantaloupe, Padrone and Carmen peppers, and Vitality corn were our big champs. We also trialed 3 chards, 5 kales, 3 fennels, 4 beets, 6 carrots, 3 basils, 4 broccolis, 7 cabbages, etc… You get the idea. We need your help. Badly! On Wednesday, September 17th from 4:30pm til 7pm we are going to determine the year's most delicious tomato and garlic varieties. Our fields hold 5 kinds of cherry tomatoes, 8 heirlooms, 2 slicers, and 6 types of garlic that are all vying for your affection and the chance to be planted again next season. We'll provide you a rating guide so you can be the most critical of food critics. There will be treats to cleanse your pallet between tastes and some extra activities for the young foodies in our midst. It will be a glorious celebration of a great season together. You're welcome to come for a part or all of the party and to bring drinks and friends to the fun. We're at 3340 Craw Road, Langley. Please drive to the very end of the driveway and park behind the big gray barn. RSVPs are ideal.
Stuffed Italian Swiss Chard Rolls with Tomatoes
15 oz ricotta cheese, well drained
1 egg
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
8 large whole Swiss chard leaves with stems,
1 small onion, diced
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cup finely chopped tomatoes of any kind
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Combine the ricotta cheese, egg, 1/4 cup of the grated cheese, salt and parsley. Set aside. Cut away the stems from the Swiss chard and thinly slice them. Set aside. Bring a large pot of water to the boil and add 1 teaspoon salt. Add the whole leaves and blanch for 10 seconds. Carefully remove the leaves with a slotted spoon and allow them to cool. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a sauté pan. When the oil is hot add the onion and stem pieces and cook them over medium heat until the stems soften. Cool the mixture slightly, then add to the bowl with the ricotta cheese mixture. Lay each Swiss chard leaf flat and spread 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture down the center of each. Starting from the end nearest you, roll each leaf up to encase the filling, folding in the sides as you go. Spread 1/2 cup of the tomatoes in the base of a casserole dish. Place the Swiss chard rolls in a single layer in the casserole dish and spread the remaining tomatoes over the tops of each. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining cheese. Cove the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 35 minutes. Uncover and serve immediately.
Steamed Beans with Lemon Mint Dressing
1 pound fresh beans, trimmed
2 tbs finely chopped fresh mint leaves
1 tbs minced shallots or red onion
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tbs extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 tsp each pepper and salt
Steam beans 4 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain. Combine mint and remaining
ingredients in a large bowl, and stir with a whisk. Add green beans to bowl, and toss to
Corn! – Aug 19th
There's corn in your share again (gasp)! We grow corn, apparently! While ears may be a dime a dozen out in the hot-summered Midwest, overflowing the fields, farm stands, and produce departments, in our mild Whidbey clime (with its notorious "June-uarys and Fog-usts") it's a total crapshoot whether a corn crop will mature or not. So dig in and don't skimp on the butter because, who knows, you may not get a local ear of sweet corn again until 2017.
In your share you'll find not only a couple ears of modern hybrid Sugary Enhanced sweet corn, but also an ear or two of good, "old-fashioned" open-pollinated (OP) sweet corn. This difference in taste and texture represents over 100 years of development in hybrid corn breeding techniques. Plant breeders began developing hybridization techniques in corn in the early 1900s, however it didn't really start to significantly improve crop yields and uniformity until the 50s. Today, the vast majority of corn grown (I'd guess over 99%), whether it's for animal feed, corn syrup, sweet corn or grain, is hybrid. Hybrid varieties come from two different parent lines that are purposely inbred over several years. The two lines are then crossed, resulting in F1 hybrid seed that will demonstrate hybrid vigor (enhanced uniformity and yield). Breeders have even isolated specific genes that confer sweetness (su=normal sugary, se=sugary enhanced, and others) and are breeding hybrids with those traits. You can't save seed on hybrids and have it grow true to the type you originally planted, as it will instead revert back to one its original parent lines, looking or tasting nothing like you intended. This makes the farmer return to the seed company the next year for more hybrid seed. The fact that the identity of two parents lines are kept secret by the breeder and that the techniques used to maintain the lines are highly technical and expensive means that growing and saving your own hybrid corn seed is nearly impossible. As seed savers, we're always searching for OP varieties (on which you CAN save seed) that are comparable in flavor, yield and uniformity to the hybrids. This can be a futile pursuit for crops such as corn, broccoli or cauliflower for which all the breeding work since the 1950s has been in developing hybrids rather than OPs. We hope you can still enjoy that good old-fashioned, OP sweet corn flavor as your grandparents did! (Please note that the Hybrid vs Open Pollinated issue has nothing to do with GMOs. Monsanto released its first GM Roundup Ready and Bt sweetcorns back in 2012 . It has since been appearing more and more in grocery stores , replacing the conventional hybrid-sweet corn. Rest assured, some of the corn in your share is hybrid, some is OP, but none of it is GM.
Super easy and delightful tomato sauce
Thanks to Donna for this glorious sauce! It doesn't get easier than this… I'm typing this from memory (I misplaced the recipe somewhere), but it was so simple, I'm sure I'm getting it close to correct. Adjust as you see fit. Enjoy!
Super easy and delightful tomato sauce
5 medium tomatoes (or about 35 cherry tomatoes); ½ lemon (remove the seeds); 1 teaspoon of coriander
Handful of herbs (fresh or dried) such as basil, parsley, oregano, thyme, rosemary; 2 tsp olive oil; 2+ cloves garlic
Salt and pepper to taste; (Add a hint of sugar if you so desire…)
Blend all ingredients in blender and let sit covered for as long as you can handle not eating it… (up to 12 hours). You may cook down to thicken or enjoy as it is. You won't go wrong with this atop pasta, veggies or any grain.
Fresh Green bean, Corn, and Tomato Summer Salad
Coarse salt; 3 ears corn, husks and silk removed; 1 pounds green bean, stem ends snapped off; 3 cloves garlic, peeled and gently smashed; 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil; 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar; 1/2 small red onion, peeled and thinly sliced; 2 1/2 cups of mixed heirloom tomatoes, chopped
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove corn with tongs and set aside on a cutting board to cool. Using a strainer, remove any corn silk remaining in the pot. Steam the green beans until very tender, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the corn kernels off the cobs and put kernels in a large bowl. Drain the beans in a colander, shake to remove excess water, and put in bowl with corn. Add garlic and 3 tablespoons of oil. Toss well and let stand at least 15 minutes for flavors to blend; refrigerate if longer than 30 minutes. Just before serving, remove the garlic and add the remaining tablespoon of oil along with vinegar, onion, and tomatoes. Add salt to taste and serve at room temperature.
Tuscan Style Roasted Carrots with Fresh Oregano
Eating on the Wild Side continues to enlighten me to the healthiest vegetables to consume and the ways to prepare them to maximize their nutrition. This weekend, I made two new discoveries. 1. Colored carrots contain more antioxidants and phytonutrients that fight cancer than orange carrots. 2. It's healthiest to eat your carrots cooked. More carrot antioxidants are available to your body if steamed, sauted or roasted.
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium bunch organic carrots
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon fresh oregano
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place butter and olive oil in a 9 X 13-inch baking pan to melt butter. Cut carrots in half lengthwise. Add to pan and toss with butter and oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and oregano. Roast 40-50 minutes, tossing the carrots halfway through roasting time to bring the un-browned carrots to the surface to brown.

On the Bookshelf
Back-to-school edition
School already started weeks ago, but thanks to the holidays, many Jewish members of the class of 2015 are only now beginning to find their footing on their respective college campuses. Two recent handbooks aim to help them do so. Scott Aaron's newly updated Jewish U: A Contemporary Guide for the Jewish College Student (URJ, May) and David Schoem's College Knowledge for the Jewish Student (University of Michigan, July) address timely dilemmas like "Should I go home for Rosh Hashanah?" and "I'm older but newer: After the gap year in Israel." Students themselves may protest that a guidebook is the last thing they would consult during what can be a genuinely difficult transition; in fact, three New Voices writers have all explained that Aaron's book isn't what they want. But they miss the point: Such books are more or less consciously designed to ease the minds not of students, but of the anxious parents who purchase them, even if the books inevitably sit unopened at the bottom of a dorm room closet for eternity. This is illustrated perfectly by a Northwestern junior's recent review of Schoem's guidebook that has elicited exactly three comments to date, two of which are from the reviewer's mother and grandmother, promising to send her care packages this fall.
That's not to say, of course, that fresh-faced college students cannot benefit from adding a couple titles to their personal libraries, along with the obligatory Principles of Macroeconomics and MLA Handbook. Sharing bathrooms and swapping considerable amounts of spit, collegians can always, for example, use help staying healthy. Jennifer Ackerman's Ah-Choo!: The Uncommon Life of Your Common Cold (Twelve, September) explores the mysteries of the common cold, offering advice on how to avoid and treat it. A science journalist, Ackerman tends to be sensible, even if not always strictly scientific. While calling most over-the-counter cold remedies junk, she does recommend hot chicken soup, which she has referred to elsewhere as "Jewish ampicillin." It's a thousand-year-old remedy that, she says, recent "research has suggested … actually really does have some medicinal value."
College students might also benefit from reading Lara Marks' 2001 Sexual Chemistry: A History of the Contraceptive Pill (Yale, September), newly available in paperback. Those who take a birth control pill themselves should know how it works and whence it came—including the record of testing the pill, during its development, on human subjects in Puerto Rico, where standards were much more flexible than here in the United States—while aspiring science majors might consider how an adventurous Jewish biologist from Woodbine, New Jersey, named Gregory Pincus could play a central role in transforming the sexual practices of hundreds of millions of people.
Even more relevant to college students busily trying to figure out who exactly they are, perhaps, would be the graphic memoir by Tablet contributing editor Vanessa Davis, Make Me a Woman (Drawn & Quarterly, September). Davis' work should be very familiar to readers of this site—but such readers should still pony up, because comics this lovely deserve to be enjoyed on paper. Davis bumbles into maturity one watercolor panel at a time, encountering challenges ranging from fat camp to bat mitzvah preparations, and, setting an excellent example for the yunge leyt, she never quite figures out who she is or what she's supposed to be doing.
For those parents still looking ahead to the college years as a welcome respite from their current entrenchment in adolescent angst and emotional pyrotechnics, Wendy Mogel's The Blessing of a B Minus: Using Jewish Teachings to Raise Resilient Teenagers (Simon and Schuster, October) presents strategies for dealing with the junior-high and high-school set. Following up on her surprise hit, The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, Mogel draws as much from contemporary psychological research and frank common sense as from the Jewish pedagogical tradition: Don't expect her, for instance, to endorse the Vilna Gaon's advice to his wife and daughters that "every amusement is worthless" and so "the main thing is to remain at home."
If publishers' lists are any indication, it isn't just students, or their parents, who could use a little guidance. Steven Lowenstein offers up For the Love of Being Jewish: An A-to-Z Primer for Bubbies, Menschs, Meshugies, Tzaddiks, and Yentas! (Triumph, September), a bit of illustrated whimsy in the subtitle of which "A-to-Z" signifies not "comprehensive," but "alphabetical": Lowenstein riffs on a Jewishy word for each letter of the English alphabet—might we suggest "narishkeyt" for N and "shmaltz" for S?
David Hazony, former editor of Azure—a journal published under the auspices of the Shalem Center in Israel—would presumably respond to Lowenstein's project by pointing out that Jews already have a memorable little primer of ten easy-to-remember rules. (Easy to remember, that is, if you're a graduate of Jewish day school, but apparently not if you're one of those Christian politicians who wants the rules posted everywhere.) Hazony's first book, The Ten Commandments: How Our Most Ancient Moral Text Can Renew Modern Life (Scribner, September) promises to advise its readers on how to get into the "spirit of redemption," using the commandments as a blueprint for modern morality—not just for Jews, but for everyone. Which raises a question: If non-Jews can look to the Ten Commandments for their moral precepts, who, then, are the Seven Laws of Noah for?
If you encountered any foodstuffs over the holidays that you could not identify, Gil Marks' Encyclopedia of Jewish Food (Wiley, September) will learnedly enlighten you. With entries and recipes for everything from "adzhapsandali" to "zalabia"—but no references to the cheeseburgers that used to be served in the Hebrew Union College cafeteria, or to Henry Roth's innovative use of the word "knish"—Marks' impressively thorough volume will either help to educate a new generation of Jewish gourmands, or it will signal to future food historians that ours was the period in which Jewish cuisine went from being something you cooked and ate to something you read about in a reference book.
One reason that it's not always easy to eat like a traditional Jew? Everyone knows parve desserts are pretty much terrible: A decent babka can be tolerated, but most of us can believe it's not butter, and, no, no, sorbet is not just as good as gelato. Which means that Paula Shoyer's The Kosher Baker: 160 Dairy-free Recipes from Traditional to Trendy (Brandeis, September) is either a hopelessly utopian fiction or a heroic triumph against the laws of nature. Recipes for tiramisu and key lime pie sound promising, but seriously: Can any parve dessert manage to taste even half as good as a well-frosted cupcake or even just a simple scoop of farm-made ice cream?

Candidates square off over transparency, complaints to city Ethics Commission
The complaint, which the DeMaio campaign released with the accuser's name redacted, alleged Fletcher violated the law because he used those clips for his mayoral bid but didn't pay for them out of his campaign account.
The Ethics Commission sent Fletcher a letter Wednesday notifying him of the allegation and that the panel had dismissed the complaint, which it said was "essentially based on speculation."
The commission levied a $1,500 fine against DeMaio in 2008 because a fundraising solicitation for his council candidacy was sent to city workers, a practice that's banned to keep employees from feeling pressured. Two months later, he proposed slashing the commission's $1 million budget by 30 percent.
Matt David, Fletcher's senior campaign adviser, accused DeMaio of "cooking up the complaint" as a way to distract and deceive voters. The campaign also released a Feb. 2 letter from the state Fair Political Practices Commission that cleared Fletcher of an allegation that he used money from his Assembly campaign account on his mayoral bid. The FPPC said Fletcher was "in substantial compliance" with state law.
Ryan Clumpner, DeMaio's campaign manager, said Fletcher still needs to explain how he spent more than $230,000 from his Assembly account last year when he knew he was going to run for mayor and why he needed to spend $50,000 on legal fees.
"Assemblyman Fletcher continues to display a pattern of unethical behavior when it comes to corporate contributions that he accepts into his state political accounts, regardless of whether he has avoided legal consequence so far," Clumpner said.
The debate gave the candidates a broader audience for their well-worn campaign scripts but also provided them a new opportunity to set themselves apart from their rivals.
Filner, the lone Democrat in the race, differentiated himself by saying he's the only candidate who will break the control that special interests in the business community hold over City Hall.
"You know I'm the only candidate up here that will break the stranglehold that special interests have on San Diego and have had probably for 50 years," he said, motioning to his opponents. "They're all part of it. They all support, for example, the most blatant giveaway of public money that I've seen in decades in the convention center financing.
"They told a private group not only can you vote a public tax but you can control how $35 million of it is spent. That's special interest, and that's what all three of these guys on my left and my right — they all support it," he said.
Last month, the City Council approved transferring marketing authority over the center to the San Diego Convention & Visitors Bureau, which has heavy representation from the hotel industry. The city's hoteliers are voting by mail on a proposed hotel tax to help fund a planned $520 million expansion of the center.
The hotel industry had made it clear that it could not support the new tax without having more control over the center's bookings.
Filner is the only candidate to raise concerns over the financing plan. All four support expanding the center.

|Minimum Stay

The apartments are located on Rue Dauphine in the Saint Germain-des-Près neighborhood, one of the most beautiful and prestigious downtown locations in Paris. For culture-lovers, the Louvre Museum is right next-door, together with its beautiful 'Jardin des Tuileries' (Tuileries Garden) where you can enjoy a long walk up to the 'Place de la Concorde'. For the romantics, stroll down along la Seine in the evening, which is just down the road, and explore its restaurants. If you ever feel like staying in though, the apartment offers a wonderfully quaint atmosphere with its elegant art and rich furniture for all the comfort you may desire. An elevator is available at your disposal. Travelling to Paris by train is highly recommended, as finding parking space in France's capital is not the easiest.
The apartments are very quiet in the evening, especially after 10 pm at night; therefore peace and quiet would be appreciated. We offer ample space for 4 people. The Apartment is on the 2nd Floor of a building, which has an elevator.
At Private Properties, our team of professionals are here to help clients discover their ultimate dream vacation. Each member of the team contributes in their own way to ensure that clients renting through our platform can locate, compare and book their selected luxury rental through an easy and care free process. Once a client has located their perfect property, they can then speak with our professional sales team, who draw on their vast years of experience in the travel market to advice clients and provide the highest possible level of customer satisfaction.
The Apartment was just as described by the property manager, who was extremely helpful in sorting out the booking process with us. Perfect for me and my family (4 people in total) 2 adults and 2 children. Overall was a great trip to one of my fav cities :-)
I would recommend this apartment to travelers who want a central position near some of Paris's most well known attractions such as the Louvre because the location is hard to beat! Although compact, the property was very comfortable and well laid out, making it easy to maneuver around the house even when entertaining guests. The staff maintained the property throughout our stay, providing great food and cleaning services. The views from the property were stunning, as we could see the Ifle Tower and the river from the main window. A simplistic and cosy apartment, that i would definitely go back to for a short trip to Paris.
When we arrived at the property we could'nt believe how central it was to all of the main attractions! At the same time we were slightly nervous that the property would lack privacy and that we would be kept up by the noises of the main street. However the second we closed the main gate it was as if we had stepped into our own private world! The walls of the property were thick which kept everything cool and quiet and the interiors were so beautifully decorated and clean. The in house elevator was a dream, making it quick and easy to get from the street to the apartment. The Louvre museum was right next door which was fascinating as my wife and i are avid art enthusiasts! We would definitely recommend this property to anyone seeking a romantic city break in Paris!
We stayed a week at this apartment - family of four with two kids, 11 and 13 years old. Location was fantastic - great street with lots of good restaurants nearby, and right off the Pont Neuf bridge, walking distance to the Louvre, Notre Dame, and close to subways. Terrific apartment with great old Paris Charm and nicely appointed. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
The apartment was perfect – exactly as described! The location was superb, walking distance to a whole host of quality restaurants and great bars. The property was very quiet and calm, very well lit and decorated with lovely furnishings. The best thing about the apartment however was the courtyard!!! Lucky the weather was nice. This wasn't my first time renting an apartment in Paris, and I must say it was by far the smoothest, without any problems (a rarity nowadays)! Thoroughly recommend!!!!
The apartment was wonderful. The location was excellent – close to everything (the Louvre, Seine, Metro, restaurants and bars), but very quiet. And we loved the personal touches – the art work and so on. The apartment had charm and history, but with all the modern conveniences. The kitchen was small but functional and we loved the courtyard!! Away from most of the major tourist crush, but with lots of local shops nearby- including a great wine bar, Chez Nous on the corner. We had a fantastic time, and I hope that I have the opportunity to rent it again on my next trip to Paris!!
The apartment lies on Rue Dauphine in St. Germain arrondissement, one of the most beautiful and prestigious downtown locations in Paris. On the one hand, the cultural diversity of the Louvre Museum with its beautiful 'Jardin des Tuileries' (Tuileries Garden) offers a long walk to the 'Place de la Concorde', whereas, on the other hand it promises romantic evenings along Seine and its restaurants.

I adore mules although I've never had the chance to be close to one. Around here one is produced usually only as result of a not-too-happy accident.
I think they're beautiful animals, I heard they are very intelligent although stubborn, sturdy, confident and healthy. I especially like their head and eyes shape.
I have a question: Is it true that all mules are sterile?
Please post here any picture of your mule - or someone else's mule as long as you have permission. Any story about them or any fact that we may not know about them is welcomed too. Just like the title says: anything about them is welcomed!
Edit: oops, just read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mule...Okay, about hinny's too!

Gaining a swift lift
The whirlpools of air that allow insects to fly may also help birds.
By Kate Ramsayer, 00:00 AM December 10, 2004
Watch a bird soar above the trees or swoop in for a graceful landing. It turns out that the same air movements that allow a mosquito to buzz around your ear or a ladybug to land on your shoulder may also help a bird fly.
Birds known as swifts hunt in the air, catching flying insects on the wing. To snag its prey, a swift has to be able to fly fast and make very tight turns, just like a jet fighter.

Star Wars: The return of Darth Maul?
Star Wars: The return of Darth Maul?
After a spectacular death scene at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi, you might think Darth Maul had already bitten the dust… but actor Ray Parks wants the dreaded Sith to return.
Although there are plenty of actors queuing up for a part in the new 'Star Wars' movies, there's always a certain fondness for those who've been there before. Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher are amongst those we can't wait to see return… but it seems that Darth Maul actor Ray Park is keen to travel back to the galaxy far, far away.
It might have looked as though Darth Maul had met a sticky end, but it turns out that rumours of his death have been greatly exaggerated… and after being resurrected in 'The Clone Wars' it seems that actor Ray Park would love to return as our favourite Sith assassin.
[Samuel L Jackson definitely wants a part in Star Wars 7]
"Just give me food and water, and I'm there," said Park when MTV Geek asked him about his possible return. Of course, that doesn't mean it's going to happen… but at least we know the fella is keen.
Known for his trademark double-bladed lightsaber, Darth Maul was easily the best thing to come out of 'The Phantom Menace'. But sadly, his villainous days (and overall height) were cut short as Obi-Wan sliced the poor Sith in two… but when did that ever stop a triumphant return?
Appearing in 'The Clone Wars' with bionic legs, it seems the tattooed Sith lord lives to fight another day… but will we see him on the big screen again?
[Carrie Fisher's ideas for Star Wars: Episode VII]
I can't help thinking an appearance in 'Episode VII' is out of the question… but what about the rumoured Obi-Wan spin-off film? We've already heard mutterings that Darth Maul could appear in a Jedi spin-off… but what does Ray Park think about that?
It seems he's not too bothered, as long as he gets to return "with something a little bit spicy" such as swinging around two of those double-bladed lightsabers for a bigger, badder Darth Maul.
Unfortunately, it turns out that Ray Park hasn't been approached about the new movies… at least, not yet. But personally, I'd love to see Darth Maul return to our screens. And this time, give the poor guy a fighting chance.
Do you think Dark Maul could make a spectacular return? Which 'Star Wars' characters would you like to see again? Let us know in the comments below…
Ryan Leston is a sci-fi geek from Cardiff who loves all things Star Wars. His favourite Star Wars film is The Empire Strikes Back and he still wants to be Han Solo when he grows up. Follow Ryan Leston on Twitter or Facebook.

These have been successful in the US, UK, France and also emerging markets such as Brazil. Indian savers struggle to ensure appropriate real returns in a relativelyhigh inflation environment, and are frequently drawn, instead, towards foreign assets such as gold.

Lidge is ready to retire. (MLB) After several injury-riddled seasons and dealing with the loss of velocity on his fastball, it appears Brad Lidge is hangin' 'em up. Jayson Stark of ESPN broke the news via Twitter that Lidge, 35, will retire. Last season, Lidge was cut by the Nationals after posting an ERA near 10 during his stint there. He was brought in for veteran leadership, but just could not cut it with a sagging fastball and a predictable slider. Of course, we all remember that beautiful slider, the hug with Chooch, and 48-for-48. Lidge will forever remain an icon in this city for the remarkable season he put forth in 2008. Beyond The Hug and 48-for-48, what are some of your fondest memories of Lidge?

Suzanne Ashton Participates in San Francisco Business Journal's Inaugural BizWomen Mentoring Monday
More than 200 women came to the Hilton San Francisco to participate in an educational opportunity designed to strengthen the women's professional community in the Bay Area. The inaugural event was part of a nationwide series of Mentoring Monday events in 43 Business Journal city markets across the country.
(PRWEB) April 17, 2014
Suzanne Ashton, Chairwoman at TPG, joined over 40 successful business women in several rounds of four minute speed-mentoring sessions where attendees asked questions and sought career advice from some of the region's top female business leaders. When asked about the event, Suzanne admitted that she was struck by the number of women in their 40's and 50's who were looking to switch careers. "Many of these women seemed nervous to make a change," she explained. "So I advised them to write down a mission statement outlining their goals and values before starting the networking process." She then went on to explain how a good declaration of purpose can bring clarity and confidence to job searches and subsequent interviews.
Suzanne's second major audience was with budding entrepreneurs. One woman had just started a company that specialized in workplace design, and she was looking for ways to increase sales. During their one-on-one meeting, Suzanne encouraged the new business owner to boost her weekly marketing efforts and network more with strategic partners. Suzanne recently received a thank you note from the woman explaining how her advice was right on the money.
In closing, Suzanne said she thought the event was a success, and she offered some advice to future attendees. "Come prepared," she urged, "the women who had written down focused questions got the most out of the event."

Stephen Jackson has long bemoaned his contract situation in Milwaukee, and the complaints are only growing louder as the regular season looms. Reports the Racine Journal-Times: "Another Milwaukee Bucks' practice, another Stephen Jackson absence. For the last several days, Jackson, whom the Bucks acquired in a blockbuster three-team trade last June, has been virtually a spectator during team workouts. Bucks officials said Jackson is experiencing back spasms and weren't sure when he would return to practice. That may indeed be the case, but there are growing whispers that the 33-year-old Jackson isn't content with his current contract. Jackson is the second-highest paid player on the Bucks this season at $9.26 million. Andrew Bogut is the highest paid Buck at $12.1M. Jackson is also guaranteed $10 million for next season. League sources said Jackson sought a contract extension last season from the Charlotte Bobcats and that was one of the primary reasons they shipped him to Milwaukee...

Max RPM for 3HM35F in a PSC34
Hi all,
I have a 3HM35F Yanmar with a 3 blade 16" prop. I'd like some feedback regarding the RPM people are running their engines at. Sometimes I'll run it at 2400 RPM for 4-5 hours if I'm in a hurry. Not sure if this is pushing the envelope. I've heard that running the engine at too low an rpm can cause carbon buildup. Anyone out there with a similar setup with some input?
We typically run our 1990 34 with the same engine and a 3 blade max prop at 2400 cruising speed. More importantly, you need to check to see if you can reach max rpm to determine if you are over/under pitched. Check the plate on front of engine to verify max rpm and see if you can hit that at the dock in neutral after engine is warmed up. Then take it out in flat water and check to see what you can do with throttle wide open. Assuming a clean bottom, you should be able to get close to max. If so, your prop pitch is good.
Thanks for the input. I'll give that a try this weekend
If anything, 2400 seems a bit on the low side for a cruise RPM -- diesels like to be pushed hard.
We run a fixed, three blade prop too. On our 3GM30F, our typical cruise RPM is 2700-2800. We will bump up to 3K with a strong headwind or countercurrent. I don't know the max RPM for your engine, but it's probably in the 3400-3500 range like ours. Running at 80% or so should put you in the same band, i.e. 27-28K rpm.
Give it a try. If you're having trouble reaching those RPMs, your prop may be over-pitched.
Okay, as an update to my previous post, I grabbed the Yanmar Service Manual from our boat today. It's the one that covers the 1GM, 2GM, 3GM, and 3HM engines.
According to the engine specs, your 3HM actually turns at a little bit slower speed than our smaller 3GM. Here are the RPM specs:
3GM30F Continuous Duty Rating= 3400 RPM (24 HP)
3GM30F Peak (One-Hour) Rating = 3600 RPM (27HP)
3HM35F Continuous Duty Rating = 3200 RPM (30 HP)
3HM35F Peak (One-Hour) Rating = 3400 RPM (34 HP)
Even still, the 3HM35 engine is designed to run continuously at 3200 rpm. So I would suggest that you experiment by bumping your cruise RPM up to the 2600-2700+ rpm range. The Fuel Consumption tables show that there is very little difference in burn rate between 2200-2800 rpm, virtually none between 2400-2600.
Great Info
Thanks for doing the homework.
I I generally run about 3200 - 3300 rpm when I need to get somewhere quick so I seem to be right in there.
John, on my 31 with MaxProp it seems I have to take an RPM that causes the least cavitation. That depends on wind direction, waves, etc. but usually around 2200-2400 which yields around 5kt. When I take it up to 3000 or higher the cavitation is terrible and I only get a slight increase in speed. Do you have that issue?
Can't say that we have had any cavitation issues. We don't have a max-prop, though (wish we did!).
With a clean bottom and prop we get about 5.6-5.7 knots at 2700 rpms, and can push it up to 6.0 at 3000 rpms. If the bottom or even just the prop is fouled, there's a big drop off in performance. Ours is a 15" fixed 3-blade. I seem to recall Larry (Asylum) reporting as good or better performance from his fixed 2-bade.
Personally, I would want a cruise rpm that gets the engine up to about 80-85% of the continuous rating. Even at those rpms, we are burning only about 1/3 gph, and of course the alternator is cranking out more amps too.

Weye Feye gives your DSLR a Wi-Fi boost and smartphone controls
By Simon Crisp
July 30, 2013
As more Wi-Fi-enabled cameras become available, it's easy to think yours is out of date if it doesn't have this ability. But the Weye Feye is a new device which aims to bring older DSLRs into the wireless age. Generating its own Wi-Fi network, the device can be accessed by Android and iOS devices for remote shooting, complete with manual controls and Live View.
The Weye Feye is a small device which attaches via USB to a wide range of Canon and Nikon DSLRs. Once attached, it allows users to connect to it with their smart device and to access a Live View feed and remote shooting controls. While not quite as convenient as a camera with its own Wi-Fi capabilities, its small size means it can easily be attached to a tripod.
It's also more powerful than many other wireless options. Using 802.11n Wi-Fi technology, the Weye Feye can work at distances of up to 80 m (262 ft), and with a latency of a record 0.2 sec, shooting should be more responsive than other products. This could make the device useful even if your camera has wireless capabilities, but you need something a little more powerful.
In Gallery Mode, photographers can use the app to view and share images stored on the camera, directly from their device. But it's the Live View Mode where the Weye Feye really shines. In addition to being able to see what the camera is seeing, users have a raft of manual shooting and recording options. This makes it easier for users to find new angles to shoot from, that wouldn't be possible if having to hold the camera.
Camera control features include touch focus, the remote adjustment of settings such as ISO, aperture and shutter speed, changing metering mode, previewing depth of field and remote manual focus. However, capabilities vary depending on the camera, so it's worth checking before buying.
Measuring 83 x 45 x 16.5 mm (3.3 x 1.8 x 0.6 in) the Weye Feye has a built-in battery which is said to be good for 7-8 hours in Live View mode or 14 hours in Gallery Mode.
The Weye Feye will be available in September for price of €250 in Europe and US$249 in the US. For a full list of compatible cameras, check the Weye Feye website.
Here's a video showing the Weye Feye in action.
Source: Weye Feye
Aren't there enough "selfies" on the net already? Considering you can buy wi-fi equipped camera cards at present for a similar price to regular cards if you really, really must connect instantly, this device seems overkill to me. I would rather review my pictures (after initial culling in-camera) at the computer stage, you can see unwanted detail (Photoshop?) more easily there.The Skud
I think it's a great addition to the toolbox, especially for the existing photogs that don't already have wi-fi. Combine that with the fact that it let's you use your iOS and or Android device as the control and remote viewfinder has been something I've been waiting a long time for. Not having to be tethered to a laptop expands it usage incredibly. I love macro photography and this will be awesome for that as well!Casey Booey

A resolution that would save Madison County an estimated $45,207 was tabled by the Board of Supervisors Nov. 24.
The proposal involves an amendment to the 2010 tentative budget that would affect the benefits and salaries of board members.
"There's been a lot of talk about our benefits and they way that they're handled," Chairman John Becker said.
If approved, the free health insurance, which is optional, would end. In exchange, supervisors would receive a $7,442 increase in annual salary and could opt to buy back health and dental plans from the county.
In addition, the free lifetime health insurance to supervisors who serve 10 or more years in office will be eliminated. The proposal will be phased out following the new supervisors taking office in January 2010. Current supervisors and the 15 past supervisors who receive the coverage will still be eligible.
The board estimates that if the retiree health insurance proposal had been in effect previously, the county would have saved approximately $76,000 per year, based on the 15 retired supervisors currently receiving the health benefits.
In other business, the board:
- Established a $33,862 salary for a new employee of the county's sewer district for 2010
- Created a part-time work program crew leader position in the department of solid waste and sanitation
- Authorized the chairman to enter into an agreement with Auctions International for the sale of six Madison Transit System Buses
- Placed the office of Madison County Historian under the administrative control of the Madison County Clerk.
The third public hearing on the 2010 tentative budget is Dec. 4 at 10:15 a.m.

Full StoryPRESS RELEASE
Cisco Offers Certified Internetwork Expert Program
Identifies Best-in-Class Troubleshooters
MENLO PARK, Calif., Sept. 27, 1993 -- Cisco Systems has inaugurated aprogram to identify individuals within its customer and partner organizationswho can effectively diagnose and resolve the problems inherent in today'slarge and complex internetworks.
The Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) program recognizes the`best-in-class' engineers who possess the technical knowledge and skills totroubleshoot internetworks, and creates a special relationship betweenthese experts and Cisco's support team.
"The CCIE Program begins where other vendors' certification programsleave off," said John Chambers, Cisco senior vice president. "It can becompared to completing a university course versus taking college entranceexams. Prospective CCIE candidates must be highly qualified just to enterthe program, and then, after taking an intensive troubleshooting course,must pass a rigorous hands-on lab test conducted by senior support engineers.This very stringent set of requirements ensures that only the bestprofessionals are selected."
Eligible candidates for the CCIE program include high-level engineersand systems analysts who have an extensive background in internetworking and a solid understanding of TCP/IP,OSI and client-server architecture, and who have completed Ciscoproduct-specific training courses.
Joe Obermeier, GE Computer Service network engineer and one of thefirst to complete the CCIE program, said, "Cisco's unique hands-onapproach to certification was a true test of my practical networkingknowledge. The `real life' scenarios I was asked to construct in the labtested my ability to not only design a network on paper, but also toassemble the hardware, configure the software and then debug the entirenetwork."
The three-part program consists of a written CCIE Qualification Test,a four-day `hands-on' Network Troubleshooting Class, and a two-day CiscoCertified Internetwork Expert Certification Lab. The Qualification Testcan be taken at Drake Training & Technologies locations worldwide; theclass and the lab are offered at Cisco headquarters in California and,beginning in first quarter 1994, at Cisco's Brussels, Belgium, office. Onsuccessful completion of the program, the candidate receives a CiscoCertified Internetwork Expert registry number, certificate and award.
Cisco Certified Internetwork Experts are given special direct access tosecond-level support at Cisco's TACs (Technical Assistance Centers) and tospecialized on-line forums on Cisco's Cisco Connection Online (CCO)system. Certification is maintained and updated annually through continuedtraining and evaluation of adherence to CCIE procedures.
The CCIE program expects to certify approximately 300 students duringits first year.
Costs of the program are $100 for the CCIE Qualification Test ($150outside U.S. and Canada), $1700 for the Network Troubleshooting Class, and$1000 for the Certified Internetwork Expert Certification Lab.
For more information, CCIE candidates can contact Scott Edwards, CCIEprogram manager, by calling 415-903-8892 or sending e-mail email@example.com Content Display
