The Special Evening Service But the evening service was the service of the day around which es- nc'.'ial interest centered. It was phmned by the pastor especially to iionor the boya who have volunteered, it was patriotic from beginning to end. The service was not opened in the usual way, but by a recitation given by MisS Helen King, the daugh¬ ter of Color Sergeant Hamilton G. King of the Home Defense. The rec¬ itation was a poem hy a Preabyterian pastor of Philadelphia, "There's a Flag in the Church." Then came the salute to the flag, followed by "The Star Spangled Banner." A very im¬ pressive number was the flag drill Kiven by sixteen girls. It was the same drill they learned at school and gave so impressively at Mineola. But on Sunday night it was for Red (.'ross. Each girl was dressed in w-hite and wore the red Maltese Cross as an emblem. They stood on the platform in the form of the cross with Miss Rider, their leader, dressed in the uniform of a Red Cross nurse, standing; in the centre. The march¬ ing on and off and the evolutions were all done with the impressive military precision that comes only Albert J. Andrews, 215 Church >St. George H. E. Aring, E. Milton St. B. .M.

Title : Returning
Author: Annalise28
Warnings/Ratings: 1st-2nd years, none
Reason for Recommendation: this is an amazing fic. It's very well written. I love the story. <3You suddenly realize, as you round a corner, that you are alone. You can leave, finally be free. You can go where you have been wanting to go for several months...
You all stand there in the boiling sun, holding each other, unfazed by anything else.
The story of a journey and what it truly means to be home.
Review: here
Title: Renaissance
Author: Wolf by Night
Warnings/Ratings: 6th-7th Years, Alternate Universe, Book 7 Disregarded, Mild Profanity, Violence
Reason for Recommendation: This foc is so great and I just *had* to know what happened next! (I even continued it on fanfiction.net >.>) It's really interesting.Harry never expected to find out that Remus had a twin sister; nor did he expect the appearance of his mother's best friend. And he certainly didn't expect the history they, and Sirius, all shared. But perhaps these four links to Harry's parents can help him in his ever-lasting war with Voldemort - and in the process, give him the family he never had. AU OotP, with some canon left intact. NOT a Mary Sue fic.
Review: click
Title: Dead and Gone
Author: Karaley Dargen, padfootsgirl1981
Warnings/Ratings: 3rd-5th years, none
Reason for Recommendation: I always love to see it when two or more authors can forge such a wonderful story together. This fic is great. It's really sad, but funny and happy at the same time.After the First War, wizards and witches everywhere were celebrating. But there were still losses, and deaths to be mourned; and in the end, there were more similarities between the good and the bad guys than one might like to think.
Molly Weasley had two brothers, who fought Voldemort and paid with their lives. She always thought that all what happened was horrible, but she never thought it would happen to her own family. And now, people everywhere are celebrating, and hardly anyone thinks of all the heroes that died anymore.
Avery was a Death Eater. He watched many people suffer and die, and never cared - until his friends die for Voldemorts cause. And now, people everywhere are celebrating, and no one thinks of all the brave and good men the other side had lost.
This is padfootsgirl1981 of Hufflepuff and Karaley Dargen of Gryffindor submitting for the Interhouse Co-Op Challenge in the Great Hall.
Title: An Outstretched Hand
Author: Equinox Chic
Warnings/Ratings: 1st-2nd years, DH Spoilers, Mild Profanity
Reason for Recommendation: Carole once again turned a great idea into a great story. It's a good read all the way, from the summary to the end notes xDSeptember the First, nineteen-sixty-two, is the day Molly Prewett has been looking forward to more than any other day. This is the day she'll join her brothers at Hogwarts. But what if she's not really a witch? What if she can't get through the barrier? What if no one will talk to her? And which House will she be Sorted into?
I am Equinox Chick of Hufflepuff, and this is my entry for the Hufflepuff Back to School Challenge.
Thank you Lexi (Harry_Rulz) for beta'ing this in record time.

Panasonic HDC-SD90
Slick design, comfortable, flexible shooting options, 1080p capture
3D capability is patchy, no headphone socket
We've seen a few 3D-capable camcorders making their debuts recently, including JVC's GS-TD1 and GZ-HM960 and Panasonic's HDC-SDT750. The HDC-SD90 is Panasonic's entry-level 3D-flavoured compact camcorder, although you'll need to kit yourself out with the optional VW-CLT1 lens as well if you want to shoot in three dimensions. We also recently looked at the excellent HDC-SD900 camcorder which tops Panasonic's range and will accept the same 3D lens, but critically offers a 3MOS sensor arrangement.
The SD90 certainly has a lot to offer at first glance - along with 1/4.1-inch CMOS sensor with 3.32-megapixels, the camcorder has a 26x optical zoom that can be upped to 60x using the intelligent zoom option and a digital range that goes from 60 to 1500x. It also boasts a F/1.8, 28mm Panasonic wide-angle lens which should please video enthusiasts who want to get as much into each frame as possible. Meanwhile, a hybrid OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) combines optical and electrical technology to offer smooth pictures and reduce any affects that shaky hands might have on your footage.
Fitting neatly in the palm of the hand, the SD90's 118.5 x 63.0 x 50.5mm chassis is comfortable to hold and pretty lightweight too, at just 244g. In fact, it manages to strike an important balance between being light enough to hold while still feeling reasonably robust. It might be an entry-level model, but it sports the same premium aesthetics as its more expensive siblings along with a striking, glossy black casing with a distinctly sparkly finish.
Flipping out the 3-inch LCD automatically turns the camcorder on and naturally, closing it turns the unit back off again. The screen opens out to an angle of 90 degrees and it can then be rotated 180 degrees towards the lens, or 90 degrees in the opposite direction. Most settings can be altered using the onscreen menus, although you'll also find a few "hard" buttons on the body of the unit once the screen has been flipped out - these can be used to alter the iA, OIS and the resolution of your video capture. This panel also houses a mini HDMI port, an AV Multi connection, a Mini-USB and a microphone input so the SD90 is pretty well set for connecting up to most devices. It might have been nice to include a headphone socket as well, but it's certainly not a deal-breaker. The fact that the SD90 also supports Viera Link will please those who've got compatible kit at home as its means that you'll be able to control playback of your camcorder using your TV remote.
The mode switch, for changing between video, stills and playback mode is on the top of the unit, just in the right place for adjusting with your right index finger. Just beyond that, on the top of the unit, you'll find the button for capturing stills and the zoom control, while the video record button is located in its natural place, under the thumb. Although there's no accessory shoe adaptor built-in, Panasonic has thoughtfully included a slot where an adaptor can be attached when the need arises. Along with a standard tripod mount, you'll find the SD card slot on the bottom of the unit. This is compatible with SD, SDHC and SDXC cards (although SD cards under 512MB may not work).
The touchscreen is pretty easy to operate, but a stylus is also supplied if you prefer. Obviously the display isn't going to be as good as the one on your smartphone, but we found it to be a lot easier to use than those found on many of its rivals. The onscreen menus are operated using a graphic called the Touch Round Bar which you slide to the left and right to switch the operation icons. The idea is that it looks something like a dial that you're spinning round. It can be a little time consuming, although it's mainly for tweaking settings so it's not something that you'll need to use every single time you use the camcorder. Thankfully you can turn off the sounds that go along with the screen navigation and they get quite annoying after a while.
The camcorder offers full HD 1080/50p at a 28Mbps bitrate and you can choose between recording the usual AVCHD files (at 50i) or iFrame video which is ideal if you intend to playback and edit your footage on a Mac using iMovie. Slightly oddly, this settings aren't on the touchscreen menu - instead you need to press and hold the relevant button on the unit, which is actually easier.
The supplied battery offers up to 1 hour and 50 minutes of continuous recordable time, says Panasonic, which seems like a reasonable estimate judging by our experience, and not a bad offering for a compact camcorder.
The SD90 is capable of capturing 5-megapixel snaps, and you can also capture still images while you're recording video, just by pressing the usual still image button, although the image quality will be slightly lower (4.5 megapixels) and certain features, such as the built-in flash and red-eye reduction, won't work. You can choose between manually selecting your desired image mode or simply using the iA function, which will do it for you. The modes on offer include all the usual suspects such as Portrait, Scenery, Lowlight, Night Scenery and Macro.
There are plenty of handy features on offer such as Face Recognition and Face Framing, where up to six faces can be recognised and settings are automatically changed to offer the best picture. You also get the usual stuff like red-eye reduction as well a handy high-speed burst mode for taking lots of snaps in quick succession. There's a Windows-only software disc in the box which offers some basic image managements options but nothing much besides.
When recording, we found it easier to use the manual zoom control on the top of the unit, rather than the touchscreen, although the control could definitely do with being a touch smoother. We found the autofocus to be pretty effective even in low light conditions and on a cloudy day. Images were really smooth with very few jagged edges and no visible pixellation. Detail on close-up shots was also particularly impressive.
Sound is recorded in two-channel Dolby Digital stereo and by camcorder standards, it isn't bad at all and there are even a few options for setting the built-in mic's levels. However, you do get the telltale rustling sound in the background in any noisy environments. The SD90 manages to get round this particular flaw by including an input for an external mic, which will no doubt be a must for anyone who is serious about their movie making.
To film in 3D, you'll need to use the VW-CLT1 3D lens which adds a further £280 to the price. The dual-lens add-on screws on to the SD90 using a supplied adaptor. This takes a while and although relatively straightforward, did prove to be a tad fiddly. Measuring in at 78 x 59 x 97mm, and weighing 195g, the lens is a bit of a beast and makes the camcorder feel rather heavy when attached. The fact that it weighs down the front of the camcorder also makes it feel slightly precarious, as if it might overbalance at any moment. Set-up is fairly straightforward, with onscreen prompts guiding you through the three levels of 3D calibration, using the dials under the flip-up panel on the 3D lens. It's can be a little tricky to set these accurately as you need to keep the lens as still as possible while you calibrate it. We actually had to do this a few times before we got the hang of it (and managed to keep the lens still enough).
When you're filming in 3D, zooming is off the menu as are most other functions, although you do still get autofocus and stabilisation. The dual lenses record two 2D images side-by-side, which is what you'll see if playing the video back on the camcorder on any non-3D screen. To play back the footage you can either hook up to a 3D TV or view it on a PC using one of the various downloadable stereoscopic players that are available on the web. We uploaded ours to YouTube (here), where it can be viewed in 3D through the various settings that YouTube offers - unfortunately we can only embed in 2D side-by-side as below.
We found that the 3D pictures we recorded contained a fair bit of noise and were a little on the dark side - not that suprising given the tiny size of the lenses and the small amount of light that can get through. The fact that most of the shooting features are disabled also means that there's little scope for tweaking the footage.
Overall, the SD90 is a splendid camcorder for the sub-£500 price bracket and offers lots to get excited about, even before you consider its 3D capabilities. Apart from its slick chassis and comfortable design, its versatility is a key selling point and one that allows for plenty of creative input. This makes it a good choice for budding filmmakers who don't have a lot of cash to spare or those that want some high-quality home movies.
We're giving the SD90 a high score based on it being an excellent camcorder in its own right. The 3D aspect of things is a tad clumsy, but still a compelling add-on if you're keen to start recording in 3D, although only if you've got a fair bit of cash to spare and a 3D TV to make the most out of it.
