A Minor Forest Discography
A Minor ForestThe A Minor Forest story begins in the late 80's in San Diego, where Andee (the drummer) and Erik (the guitar player) grew up. Andee was studying art at U.C.S.D., working at the college radio station and playing in a metal band. The bass player in said band was still in high school with Erik, who was pretty much Goth at the time. The two met through this mutual friend and began to hang out.
In 1990 Andee moved away, eventually relocating in San Francisco. Erik followed in 1992, moving to the Bay Area to study music at U.C. Berkeley. The two began to play music together that spring. After months of searching for an acceptable bass player, John entered the picture in January of 1993. He had attended music school at Berkeley as well, playing clarinet in the symphony. One week after their first rehearsal, the three played their first show.
In the spring of 1994, Dominique Davison, another music student at Berkeley, began playing cello with the group, helping with recordings and occasional live performances. Through Dominique's band, Spitboy, AMF hooked up with Steve Albini in August of 1995. The band went on to record a number of sessions with both Steve and Bob Weston that would make up Flemish Altruism, their debut record for Thrill Jockey. Dominique left the band shortly before the record came out, but appears on some of that material as well as on various vinyl on releases that came out prior to Flemish. After much touring the band recorded their second record for Thrill Jockey, Inindependence with Brian Paulson in Winter of 1998 in Chicago. The band continued to tour and release singles and make compilation appearances for most of 1998, before deciding to take a hiatus in Fall of 1998. A collection of much of this out of print material and a couple new tracks made it onto the Were They in Some Sort of Fight? CD on My Pal God Records in 1999.
During A Minor Forest's hiatus, Andee went on to play in many bands including Lumen and the currently active Imperils. He became co-owner of Aquarius Records, one of the best record stores in the US. He also started his own record label, Tumult.
Erik went on to work in public radio and pursue chamber music with Dominique in their group Threnody Ensemble. This led him to attend graduate school in music at U.C. San Diego. From there, he went on to play with the band Pinback for six years.
John went on to play in the band Creepy Crawly Claw. He also created the Larry Bus, an Oakland public transit bus that he converted into a vegetable-oil powered mobile concert venue. He released a solo album in 2013.
On Nov. 9th 2013, A Minor Forest played their first show in 15 years at Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco, which has been followed by jaunts to LA and their birthplace of San Diego.
"…look at how much of the San Francisco trio's legacy has been ratified and perpetuated by indie-rock posterity: Hypnotically slithery emo jangle? Check. Appealingly disruptive math-spazz freakouts? Check. Twitchy dynamic shifts under drawling voice recordings? Check. Exquisitely crass song titles? Check" - SF Weekly
There are no tour dates at this time.
Pop Matters loves the two A Minor Forest albums, calling them "some of the finest representations imaginable of noise as the most spontaneous by-product of the deconstruction of rock grammar."
Pitchfork reviews Flemish Altruism and Inindependence, declaring them as "two of the most endlessly rewarding albums of the 90s".
The Bay Bridged caught up with Andee about the big reunion and Record Store Day at Aquarius Records.
Glide Magazine featured Flemish Altruism / Inindependence as one of the 30 Essential Record Store Day Exclusives.
Impose caught up with A Minor Forest and premiered a live video of the epic 18-minute track "So Jesus Was At The Last Supper" from a recent gig in San Francisco. AMF is gearing up for their first tour in over a decade and a deluxe re-issue of their discography on RSD.
A Minor Forest have reunited and are touring the nation in the Spring. Flemish Altruism and Inindependence will be available as a limited 4xLP set for Record Store Day 2014!!!

Match Your Jewelry to Your Mood
LA jewelry designer SparklePlentyFineBeadedJewellery.com launched their new "Necklace For Every Mood Collection" which is meant to complement and highlight the moods of women wearing them. Their new innovative range consists of 5 uniquely handcrafted designer pieces with specific colors to depict the moods of women.
According to owner Thea Kolosseos-Kendis, since moods affect the clothes that women wear, it should not be any different for jewelry. Moods basically determine the type, color, design and style of the clothes and jewelry that women choose. Hence she created a completely different yet innovative range of handcrafted necklaces for women to express themselves.
The new necklace collection are made from materials and colors that were specifically chosen to depict and represent the different moods that women wish to express. The Tribal Black Olive Stone necklace has a combination of black and olive colored stones while the Tassel Black Onyx Opalite Necklace is made from onyx and opalite glass. The Hand Blown Glass Bead Necklace has a combination of cobalt, green and turquoise, while the Needlewoven Flowers Necklace is lavender and spring green. There is also a Red Glass Hibiscus Flower Pendant Necklace in the collection.
The color black makes one look slimmer and feel more regal, formal and high-class. It also has a powerful, bold and dramatic presence and is used by women when they want to feel dominating, strong, confident, resilient and in control. When a woman feels aggressive, wants to be committed and taken seriously but also want to look classy, black is usually the preferred color.
Green usually denotes a more understanding, peaceful, contented and compassionate feeling. When worn, it could also give out the signal that a women enjoys being generous, loves nature, is self-controlled yet humble at the same time. It is also a spring color, which is refreshing and shows vitality. Lavender was chosen as it's best known for bringing calm while the color purple is associated with wisdom, creativity and independence. Light purple in this case shows off the feminine and romantic side of women.
Blue is a favorite as it depicts truth, loyalty and tranquility. It makes one feel at peace and gives out the signal that one is reliable as well. Turquoise symbolizes self awareness, being initiative and shows one as being intuitive and creative. This color usually makes one feel happy, relaxed and invigorated. For those who wish to be more passionate and desirable, red is a must as it symbolizes physical energy, courage and adventure. Women who want attention will usually wear red to show their boldness, ambition and drive.
These color combinations are depicted well in the new Necklace For Every Mood Collection which is made from high quality materials.
Each piece of jewelry sold by SparklePlentyFineBeadedJewellery.com are individually handcrafted in the company's Los Angeles studio with only the finest materials available. Their handmade jewelry is one of a kind or available only in limited editions. The company is committed to providing exceptional customer service and stands by the quality of their jewelry. In fact, all their jewelry are backed by a lifetime guarantee.

Most teenage slackers don't think twice about refusing their fathers' invitations to do something together. But when my Dad asked me to help him start up and run New York's first Boy Scout troop for disabled kids, I immediately agreed.
My time in Scouting had about run its course and I had a great experience the previous summer volunteering at a Head Start program. Besides, college was two years away and I knew this would look good on my applications. [Continue reading]

The goal of this project is to provide new and used musical instruments to increase at-risk youth participation in the Greater New Orleans area public school music programs and marching bands.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
While most schools across the country need musical instruments and classes, the need continues to be especially acute in post-Katrina New Orleans, as looted or flood damaged schools reopen and new schools are founded. Currently 30% of New Orleans schools do not have music programs and 90% of the students we serve are minorities who qualify for free and reduced price lunch. Our efforts focus on these at-risk youth ages 12 through 19 with limited or no access to instruments or music programs.
How will this project solve this problem?
The instruments will be used by scores of children who would not otherwise be able to enjoy the developmental, social and cultural benefits of musical performance in a city struggling to hold on to its musical legacy.
Potential Long Term Impact
Providing musical instruments to a new generation will not only keep the musical legacy of New Orleans alive, but will provide at-risk youth with skills and professional opportunities they wouldn't otherwise have.
Funding Information
Total Funding Received to Date: $15,322
Funding Information
This project is now in implementation and no longer available for funding. Received funds will be used to accomplish concrete objectives as indicated in the project's "Activities" section. Updates will be posted under the "Project Report" tab as they become available.
Donors' contributions and pledges to this project totaled $15,322 . The original project funding goal was $15,000.

'See Jennifer Aniston Naked': Ben Stiller launches fake charity (He already has a real one)
Ben Stiller has a relatively new charity, The Stiller Foundation, dedicated to helping educate underprivileged children. The bulk of the work has thus far focused on rebuilding Haitian schools in the wake of the country's 2010 earthquake.
But the actor knows the subject matter is kind of a downer, so in the latest YouTube spot for the foundation, he promises something more appealing: Jennifer Aniston naked.
Going through a list of possible names for the foundation, including our favorites "So You Think You Can Donate" and "The Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good," he settles on The Jennifer Aniston Foundation -- which boasts the super-enticing URL of SeeJenniferAnistonNakedFoundation.com.
Aniston is in on the joke, obviously, and makes a quick cameo when an assistant shows her the fake site. If you try to go there yourself, it just leads to the of The Stiller Foundation's Facebook page, where you can learn more about his works.

Ticket #8463 (closed Bug: fixed)
WebKit: Cut/Copy don't go on "enabled" state
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|CKEditor 3.6.4
|UI : Toolbar
Original message from our contact form, Ticket REF : 3815-QDFX-1500.
I found that 'cut' and 'copy' icons do not go to enabled state after you select text in editor (chrome v. 14.0.835.202 m windows). After exploring this I found that there is a problem with queryCommandEnabled function in clipboard plugin, so I propose a solution to you.
function stateFromNamedCommand( command, editor ) { // IE Bug: queryCommandEnabled('paste') fires also 'beforepaste(copy/cut)', // guard to distinguish from the ordinary sources( either // keyboard paste or execCommand ) (#4874). CKEDITOR.env.ie && ( depressBeforeEvent = 1 ); var retval = CKEDITOR.TRISTATE_OFF; try {retval = editor.document.$.queryCommandEnabled( command ) || CKEDITOR.env.webkit && editor.getSelection().getRanges()[0].startOffset != editor.getSelection().getRanges()[0].endOffset ? CKEDITOR.TRISTATE_OFF : CKEDITOR.TRISTATE_DISABLED;}catch( er ){} depressBeforeEvent = 0; return retval; }

press release
Mosimanegape Piet Ntlame, a mathematics teacher at George Madoda Primary School in Delarayville, North West, has been named the KFC Mini-Cricket Coach of the Month for December in recognition of his hard work and dedication to the volunteer coaching programme. He wins a trophy, a cap and KFC gift vouchers worth R1,000.
Ntlame was introduced to cricket 12 years ago by Chris Sekgabi, a KFC Mini-Cricket coordinator in the North West, who was encouraging rural schools in the province to get into cricket. "At the time I was a teacher at Gamoeketsi Primary School in the rural village, Khunwana, where we only offered soccer and athletics. After Chris' presentation I knew that this was what I wanted to do. The following year he helped me register for the KFC Mini-Cricket refreshers/beginners coaching course where I earned a distinction and immediately started coaching at my school," said Ntlame.
But he didn't stop there. "Chris saw my passion for the sport and he then helped me get a learnership to study for a Level A Hard-ball Cricket coaching course through the North West Cricket Union. I then studied for a Level C Cricket Umpiring certificate."
In 2005 Ntlame was transferred to Delarayville and immediately started a cricket team at the school. "When the neighbouring schools saw what I was doing they asked me to help them do the same. I then started hosting workshops in the area to teach coaching. I was then requested to start coaching clinics. By mid-2006 I was coaching three schools and approached North West Cricket to get involved and I officially joined the KFC Mini-Cricket programme." Ntlame is currently a KFC Mini-Cricket coach and coordinator for the Dr Ruth Mompati Region in North West.
"I now have 17 lower primary and primary schools involved in the KFC Mini-Cricket programme. I coach about 32 kids, 17 of which are from neighbouring schools. We train three days a week at my current school," said a proud Ntlame, who is fully behind the KFC messaging around the tournament, which is to get kids active on the cricket field.
Challenges in semi-rural areas
But there are challenges to running the programme in a remote, semi-rural area which Ntlame is managing to overcome. "North West Cricket came on board and helped with equipment such as bats, balls and stumps. More recently, the Department of Sports, Arts, Culture and Recreation in the province started assisting us with transporting of teams to regional and provincial competitions."
While Ntlame has yet to have a professional player emerge from his programme, he hopes to produce one in the near future. "Last year one of my girls, who has graduated from my KFC Mini-Cricket programme to hard-ball cricket, Kgatlhiso Monnapula, received an award at the North West Cricket/PSG function held in Potchefstroom and was invited to the provincial under-17 team trials. She performed well and is attending provincial practices and hopes to be called up for her provincial first cap soon."
"Four of my players have been invited to North West under-13 provincial trials, namely, Phemelo Van Schalkwyk, Moepeng Bakatha, Dikomela Bopaki and Mmakau Orefile. The trials will take place during the Easter holidays," concluded Ntlame.
There are now over 100,000 kids getting active by getting into KFC Mini-Cricket. The over 7,000 volunteer coaches in the programme, who generously give their time and skills, will ensure that the kids from the 4,500 schools will be coached more frequently while also improving the standard of cricket.

One More Reason to Drink Water: Reduce Your Snoring
Water plays a vital role in making our bodies function normally. Water promotes proper digestion, elimination, detoxification and temperature control. What is not as well known about water is that it can help to reduce snoring. Many people snore because they are dehydrated. They have a dry mouth and dry throat, both of which promote snoring. The simple cure is to drink more water.
Water can also help to reduce the harmful effects of snoring. Typically, snorers who have sleep apnea will not sleep well and feel fatigued. To combat the fatigue, the snorer will consume foods and drinks laden with sugar in order to feel energetic, but these foods can contribute to weight gain. Staying hydrated will help you lose or maintain your weight because it fills up your stomach, moves your food through your system and helps to regulate your metabolism. Follow these simple guidelines for incorporating more water into your diet in order to function at your best.
How much water should you consume?
- It is good to drink a glass of water when you first wake up in the morning when you are the most dehydrated.
- The standard recommendation is eight glasses of water per day, or enough so that your urine is very light in color. On the days that you sweat more because of exercise, or are exposed to a lot of germs, you should drink more.
- Soda, coffee, tea and alcohol do not count toward daily fluid intake because they dehydrate your body and can lead to nutrient loss.
- Herbal teas and vegetable juices count toward your water goals and have the added benefit of providing vitamins and minerals.
- Foods with high fluid content, such as fruits, vegetable and cooked grains, also count toward your daily water intake and help to eliminate the waste from your body.
Other considerations:
- It's best to do most of your drinking in between meals. Food will digest better with a minimum amount of water in the stomach.
- Beware of choosing flavored waters—many contain sugar or artificial sweeteners. Better to flavor the water or seltzer by adding a little fruit juice or squirt of lime or lemon.
- Not all water tastes the same. If the water is filtered in some way, it tends to taste better, and you'll be motivated to drink more of it.
Of all the things you could do to reduce your snoring specifically, or improve your health in general, sipping water throughout the day and eating water-dense foods is relatively easy to implement. Enjoy all the benefits, and happy sleeping!
If you'd like to discuss your health concerns and goals, call Sharon Goldner to set up a free phone consultation at 908-242-3763 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Mario Strikers: Charged Review
Played on:
For me, soccer has always been one of those sports I really didn't enjoy playing sim-style games of. I'm not trying to say that the FIFA series is bad or anything it could be enjoyable at times but soccer just felt too off for me. Maybe it's the fact that soccer is nowhere near as big in the US as it is in other countries or maybe it is just that it doesn't seem as exciting. I'm not really that sure.
However, arcade-style soccer games have always been a blast. Tossing most of the rules out of the window and, in some cases, adding in hilarious characters and powerups (take Sega Soccer Slam as a prime example), the games were fun to play, especially with some friends. Not wanting to be left out, Nintendo tossed many popular Mario series characters into their own soccer game, the original Mario Strikers on the GameCube. While I never personally played it, I heard a lot of good things about it. I decided that, when the Wii version was released, that I would pick it up. And, while there are a couple of elements of the game that annoy me, it still stands out as one of the more fun multiplayer experiences on the Wii to date especially since you can take it online.
Mario Strikers Charged is, on the surface, your basic run of the mill arcade soccer game. Instead of a huge mess of players, your team consists of four characters. One of these is a major player in the Super Mario universe such as Mario or Bowser. The other teammates are characters like Dry Bones, Shyguy or Birdo ones you've seen in the universe before but didn't often play a main role in the games. Each character is rated on a few statistics Power, speed, passing and defense. You aren't forced into certain characters, either there are generally a couple with the same stats. Composing a team can be a huge element of how you'll play but the problem is that there are a couple of characters with really awesome moves. These characters will appear in damn near every team online.
The controls in the game are really simple, too the Nunchuk has controls for your movement, use items and lob the ball while the Wiimote allows for you to use character's special abilities, perform slide tackles, pass the ball and take shots. In all, the controls are pretty easy to pick up on and, save for the ability to hit another player by shaking the controller, don't force motion controls on anyone unlike a lot of games on the Wii. There's even a solid tutorial, though most of the controls are easily picked up when you start the game they really just feel natural.
As you play, you'll get powerups too. If you are slide tackled while you don't have the ball or if you perform a charged shot, you'll get a powerup. You can only hold two at a time and they are shown by your character's portrait. They range from a banana peel to shells and even a special super ability based on your character. Mario, for example, grows to epic proportions and stomps all over the enemy while Yoshi turns into a gigantic egg and rolls over everyone. Each of these super abilities are nice and add to the gameplay while not providing an instant score.
Getting those goals is ridiculously easy at first. See, each team's star player can perform what is called a Mega strike. If you hold the B button, you'll eventually get a meter that lets you shoot off anywhere from 3-6 difficult to block shots. If you're on the receiving end of one of these, you'll be thrust into a mini game where you control the goalie's hands and try to deflect the shots. The charge time on them is long, though but this isn't an issue on the first single player tournament. Using this technique, I was able to rack up stupidly high point totals. However, it got a LOT harder on the Crystal Cup, to the degree of rarely being able to pull them off, if at all. While I'm sure they were intended to be a rarity, the huge jump in how the game plays from one level to the next is harsh.
This isn't the only jump you'll see difficulty wise, either. This is probably the game's biggest fault the difficulty jumps from really easy to really, really hard. Most games have, at the most, a sharp curve. Charged is missing that there's no curve, but instead a steep cliff that will frustrate players as they try to win at the next level. You don't have to learn any real tactics or strategy in the first cup you play as it is ridiculously easy to dominate. You're thrown into the fire with the next cup and some players will get frustrated enough to never go back to the single player game.
That may not be all that bad, though, as this game also features online play. You can even play multiplayer in a coop fashion letting you run some really neat strategies. Take one that I read about on some forums I hang out at you can have one player go into a mega strike and have the other just defend him. Doesn't much matter if the other team gets a mass of powerups when you get off a big mega strike, now does it? This game manages to hold true to what seems to be the Wii's target a single player game to teach you to play then multiplayer of some kind for God knows how long.
In the end, Mario Strikers Charged is a pretty fun game. Sure, the AI can go from ridiculously easy to brutally hard in a heartbeat, but if you own a Wii, you probably have some people to game with. And that is where Charged really shines the multiplayer arena. Take it online, knock some people around and have a blast. If you're one of the rare Wii owners that really doesn't enjoy multiplayer gaming, though, I'd recommend you avoid this one.

The proportion who expect 2013 to be better than last year is greater than those with a pessimistic outlook by a margin of +31%.
The comparable figure for the beginning of 2012 was a gloomy -31%.
There is also less fear over a return to recession with 16% saying the risk was high, 49% moderate and 34% low.
Chief economist Graeme Leach said: "The risk of a return to recession has not gone away, but it is receding fast."

Health Officials Warn Of Flu Risks
Posted: January 10, 2013 at 5 a.m.
State and local health officials warn Arkansas is facing its worst flu season since 2009 and urge as many people as possible to get vaccinated.
At A Glance
Those At Risk
Those who are at high risk of flu-related complications are encouraged to visit their doctor if they develop flu-like symptoms including cough, high fever, headache and/or muscle aches. Children's flu symptoms may also include vomiting or diarrhea. The flu vaccine takes 10 days to two weeks to become effective and it is not too late to get vaccinated. Flu vaccines are available at local health units, private doctor's offices, pharmacies and major retailers statewide. Those most at risk for severe flu-related complications include:
• Pregnant women
• Children under the age of five
• People 65 years or older
• People with chronic conditions such as asthma, COPD, heart disease or weakened immune systems.

The CommandCallback Method in PCL6 Causes an Exception in the Unidriver Module
Article ID: 328007 - View products that this article applies to.
This article has been archived. It is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated.
On This Page
If you use PAGE_SETUP as a CallbackId value for the PCL6 unidriver, an exception occurs in the Unidriver module.
With a PCL5 driver, the processing occurs correctly no matter which *Order setup value is specified. If JOB_SETUP is specified, the render CommandCallback method is called only one time per job. If PAGE_SETUP is specified, the render CommandCallback method is called for every page.
With a PCL6 driver, processing seems to occur correctly only if JOB_SETUP is specified for the *Order setup value. If PAGE_SETUP is specified for a single-page document, the output is correct. For a multiple-page document, the first page is processed correctly. On the second page, however, after the CommandCallback render plug-in method has been processed, control returns to the unidriver, and then an exception occurs in the Unidriver module.

The reason given by the White House for ignoring the Constitution and giving Dr. Donald Berwick a recess appointment to head Medicare and Medicaid — Republican obstructionism and delay — was transparently phony. Republicans, with only 41 senators, have no power to delay committee hearings, delay the committee vote, or delay the matter being taken up by the whole Senate. Only then might Republicans be able to delay or obstruct by mounting a filibuster.
What the administration feared, of course, was that Republicans might use the committee hearing and the Senate debate to ask inconvenient questions about ObamaCare and to put that monumental boondoggle back on the front page only a couple of months ahead of the election.
But Byron York at the Washington Examiner reports that the Republicans would also have been asking some inconvenient questions about Dr. Berwick. As has become so characteristic of modern liberalism, Dr. Berwick is a for-thee-but-not-for-me kind of guy. He has gone on record advocating rationing of health care. ("The decision is not whether or not we will ration care — the decision is whether we will ration with our eyes open.")
But there won't be any standing in line for Dr. Berwick and his wife, nor will there be denial of treatments deemed too expensive by some bureaucrat. He and his wife will "not have to deal with the anxieties created by limited access to care and the extent of coverage. In a special benefit conferred on him by the board of directors of the Institute for Health Care Improvement, a nonprofit health care charitable organization he created and which he served as chief executive officer, Berwick and his wife will have health coverage 'from retirement until death.'"

Minister of Electricity and Energy Ahmed Imam asserted that all cards are on the table regarding the implementation of the nuclear power plant, adding that Egypt might assign a company to establish the power plant whether by direct order or international tender. Such a decision would be made by the Supreme Council for the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy headed by President Adli Mansour.
The minister's statements came during a press conference held on Saturday 22/12/2013 to review the situation of the National Grid and its preparation for securing the citizens' needs during next summer.
He pointed out that the ministry is currently taking the necessary steps to secure the citizens' needs during next summer, asserting that the ministry plans to upgrade the capacity of the National Grid by 6,000 megawatts to reach 24,000 megawatts after the adding the new projects.

Domestic violence comes in many forms, from sexual assault to mental abuse. October is a month to raise awareness of that.
Across the nation, 1.3 million women are victims of physical abuse by an intimate partner each year, according to National Coalition Against Domestic Abuse (NCADV). The coalition also states most cases of domestic abuse are never reported to the police.
Creston violence
Rural Iowa Crisis Center, the domestic and sexual abuse center in Creston, lost federal funding, and was forced to close Aug. 1.
Since then, Crisis Intervention and Advocacy Center (CIAC), located in Adel, added Adams, Ringgold, Taylor and Union counties to its list of Adair, Clarke, Dallas, Decatur, Guthrie and Madison counties.
CIAC serves domestic and sexual abuse victims from its Adel office, and shelter services are available in Council Bluffs.
"Since the crisis center closed, the (new) center is based now out of Adel. We still have the same services," said Creston Police Chief Paul Ver Meer. "They still have access to a counselor or an advocate."
According to Creston Police reports, there were 161 reports of domestic violence in Creston in 2012. These reports included both verbal threats and physical violence.
Of those 161 reports, 48 incident reports were taken.
"These were ones where there was physical violence," said Ver Meer, "or we could prove there was domestic abuse."
Ver Meer said the number of reports "seems about the norm" based on past years.
The most common reports in Creston are verbal incidents, which are usually in the form of an argument. However, physical domestic abuse incidents still occur.
"I think there's more incidents of domestic violence than are reported," Ver Meer said.
What is domestic violence?
Domestic violence is behavior that is threatening, abusive or coercive "aimed at gaining power and control over an intimate partner," according to the website for Iowa Coalition Against Domestic Violence (ICADV).
Violence can occur in physical, mental or sexual form.
NCADV states one in four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime, and 15 percent of domestic abuse victims are male.
In Iowa, there are several organizations that focus on domestic and sexual violence and how to protect women, children and men from it.
Iowa Coalition against Sexual Assault, ICADV, Children and Families of Iowa and other organizations are located in Des Moines, Ames, Iowa City, Mason City and Ottumwa, to name a few.
Currently, CIAC is the only local domestic violence organization in Union County.

GOVERNMENT has reversed the deportation of Rwandese Catholic priest, Viateur Banyangandora and declared that he is free to come back to Zambia.
Home Affairs Minister, Edgar Lungu said at a media briefing yesterday that the revocation of the deportation order followed consultations with various members of the Catholic Church.
He said the move was in line with "the BIBLE teachings to forgive one another in the love of Christ."
Mr Lungu, however, warned members of the public regardless of their political affiliation that matters of the Church should not be mixed with politics.
"I further warn those who want to intervene with the running of Government while hiding behind religion that the law will catch up with them.
"I will not take kindly to anyone who uses the name of the Church to gain political mileage at the expense of serving the Zambian people," he said.
Father Banyangadora, 40, who was based at Lundazi Catholic Parish, was deported about three months ago for allegedly violating the Laws of Zambia.
In his deportation order, Mr Lungu stated that Fr Banyangandora's conduct was found to be a danger to peace and good order in Zambia contrary to Section 39(2) of the Immigration and Deportation Act, No. 18 of 2010.

LG First to launch OLED TV in Europe AUG 25, 2013 click
LG today announced the availability of its CURVED OLED TV (55EA9800) in Germany, becoming the first TV maker to bring advanced OLED TV technology to European customers. The CURVED OLED TV will be sold at select retailers across the country starting this week and will roll out in other European markets in the fourth quarter.
DisplaySearch estimates Europe will account for up to 30 percent of the global OLED TV market by 2017. The respected research firm also projects worldwide demand for OLED TVs will grow to more than seven million units by 2016. As the first company to offer a large-screen CURVED OLED TV in the United States and Europe, LG is poised to become the standard-setter for the next generation TV market.
LG launches curved OLED TVs in Europe AUG 25, 2013 click
LG Electronics is launching its curved OLED TV in Germany, becoming the first TV maker to bring advanced OLED TV technology to European customers.
The curved OLED TV (55EA9800) will be sold at select retailers across the country starting this week and will roll out in other European markets in the fourth quarter.
"LG is fully committed to delivering the most advanced OLED TVs to European customers," said In-kyu Lee, vice president and head of the TV division at LG Electronics' Home Entertainment Company. "With next generation display technology and an ultra-thin curved design, our curved OLED TV represents the beginning of a new era in home entertainment."
LG Beats Samsung To Europe's 1st OLED TV With €9K AUG 26, 2013 click
LG made its announcement over the weekend, saying that its next-generation TV – which was first spotted in Las Vegas at the 2013 CES – would go on sale in select German retailers for €8,999 (about £7,733) later this week.
We've previewed LG's 55EA9800 before, but in case you missed it and are wondering what all the fuss is about, the Korean manufacturer gave a few details in its press release. Measuring just 4.3mm in depth and weighing barely 17kg, the principle behind curved OLED technology is that not only does it bring the most awesomely colourful and dazzling images ever, but it also recreates an IMAX arena-like experience in your living room. The idea is that the curved screen ensures that every part of it is the same distance from your eyes, allowing you to focus on 100% of the screen without any blurring at the edges. The fact that LG is releasing its curved OLED model instead of the flat-screen version (just like it did in the USA) does give us reason to ponder if the latter will ever make it to these shores – just like Samsung, LG's remaining completely tight-lipped about its reasons for this decision, something that suggests all future OLED models may be of the bendy variety.
Best Buy To Sell LG's 55-Inch Curved OLED EA9800 JUL 22, 2013 click
LG announced today that the EA9800 will be available in the U.S. at a cost of $14,999. The EA9800 is a 55-inch OLED HDTV with a curved screen, which will be sold exclusively at Magnolia stores inside of Best Buy. Right now the EA9800 will be available at Best Buy's flagship store in Richfield, Minnesota. It will be expanded to Best Buy stores in Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, New York, Miami, Houston, Dallas, San Francisco, and San Antonio over the next few weeks before being rolled out nationwide later this summer.
The LG 55EA9800 started selling in Korea this past April. It is only 0.17 inches thin and weighs under 38 pounds. The 55EA9800 uses LG's four-color pixel system, which has a white sub-pixel that works in the traditional red, green, and blue pixels. "The entire screen surface is equidistant from the viewer's eyes, eliminating the problem of screen-edge visual distortion and loss of detail," stated LG.
LG Curved OLED TV Achieves THX Display Certification JUL 22, 2013 click
Remember the announcement made earlier this evening concerning the availability of the 55" Curved OLED TV from LG in the USA for the first time, seven months after we took a gander at it at CES 2013 earlier this January? Well, it seems that there is more than meets the eye for this 55" Curved OLED TV, as LG Electronics is beaming with pride to announce that this is the first OLED TV in the world to pick up THX Display Certification.
Retailing for a whopping $14,999 a pop and having gone on sale for the first time in the USA, the LG 55EA9800 (if model numbers are your cup of tea) had to go through over 600 THX laboratory tests in order to make sure that it can deliver the picture quality of a professional post production display. Eric Gemmer, THX Senior Video Engineer, said, "We're excited about the potential of OLED TV technology and we're thrilled that consumers are introduced to it through this THX Certified LG model. The collaboration between LG and THX sets a very high standard for OLED picture quality."
LG Curved OLED HDTV rolling out in the US JUL 22, 2013 click
The curved television era has officially begun, with LG announcing US availability for their new Curved OLED HDTV, which is the first of its kind to reach the US. LG's 55-inch class model is going on sale starting today at select Best Buy locations. However, you'll want to save up and go through your piggy bank to make sure you have enough cash, because these things aren't cheap.
The TV is exclusively launching at Best Buy's flagship store in Minneapolis, but availability will begin to spread over the coming weeks, including locations in Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Houston, Dallas, San Francisco, Chicago, Seattle, and San Antonio. Availability at all Best Buy locations is expected to hit later this summer at some point.
LG starts taking pre-orders for world's first curved APR 29, 2013 click
After all the money we spent buying flat screen TVs in the past decade, LG is reintroducing the curved TV. This curve, however, is focused on you.
Today, LG announced that it is accepting pre-orders for the first curved OLED TVs ever to ship. The LG 55EA9800 is a 55-inch organic-light-emitting-diode TV with a concave curve, not convex like the old tube TVs. In other words, it curves gently towards you, not away from you.
The result, LG says, is spectacular.
"The entire screen surface is equidistant from the viewer's eyes, eliminating the problem of screen-edge visual distortion and loss of detail," LG said in a press release.
LG Releases New OLED Curved TVs Which Provide APR 29, 2013 click
LG Electronics announced Monday it will start selling its new curved OLED televisions next month, which will mark the first time this type of product will reach the public, according to BBC News.
The organic light-emitting diodes, OLED, used in the television provide the opportunity for a thinner, more flexible screen.
The new television, which will preliminarily be restricted to South Korea, will be 55 inches and cost approximately $13,550 or 15m won in South Korean Currency.
LG begins Accepting Pre-orders the 55" Curved OLED APR 29, 2013 click
LG and Samsung are so ready to compete with each other that the two companies had to develop a new off-shoot product, the curved OLED TV. LG has now announced that the company is accepting pre-orders for the LG 55EA9800 in South Korea. The expectation is that the set will ship next month, and the price for 55 inch version is currently $13,500.
Havis Kwon, LG President and CEO, "Our Curved OLED TV is not only the proof of LG's unmatched leadership in next-generation displays but also a testament to LG's commitment to bringing to market the most exciting TV technology available today."
LG Curved OLED TV Sales Kick Off APR 28, 2013 click
At the beginning of the year on the mad house that is known as CES in Las Vegas, Nevada, the Ubergizmo team managed to capture images of the curved OLED TV from LG, coupled with a closer look at it, naturally. Well, sometime in the middle of this month, we brought you word that the curved OLED TV from LG was about to go on sale pretty soon, and it did not take too long between that announcement and now for it to happen, as LG Electronics has just announced that they would begin to accept pre-orders for this 55" behemoth, going by the model number 55EA9800 in South Korea, where deliveries are expected to kick off from next month onwards.See More http://www.ubergizmo.com/2013/04/lg-curved-oled-tv-sales-kick-off/
LG's 55-inch curved OLED TV arrives in Korea this ... APR 28, 2013 click
The first of LG's convention-defying Curved OLED TVs will be in Korean living rooms in just over a month. According to an LG Korea press release posted by Engadget, pre-orders for the TV will start on April 29th, while the first deliveries will begin sometime in June. The 55-inch set measures 4.3 millimeters in thickness and will sell for 15 million Korean won, or about $13,515 — a premium of about $3,600 over the company's identically-sized, but tragically two-dimensional, OLED TV.
LG first unveiled the curved TV at CES in January, but given the slow roll-out of LG's current 55-inch OLED (it was announced in January, 2012 but just made it to market two months ago), we figured it would be a while before the Curved OLED started shipping. No plans have been announced for a US release, but we'll be watching for more details..
LG pips Samsung to market with 55-inch curved OLED TV APR 29, 2013 click
LG has revealed launch plans for its 55-inch curved OLED TV, the gently-flexed überset the company showed off back at CES in January. The LG 55EA9800 will go on sale in South Korea in the next month, though at a healthy premium over the standard, non-curved 55-inch OLED set the company has offered for a few months now.
The flat OLED TV is priced at 11 million Korean won, and went up for preorder in January 2013 with shipments beginning the following month. As for this flexed variant, it will command a 50-percent premium, with LG pricing it at 15m won, or around $13,500.
LG taking pre-orders for curved OLED TV sets in South Korea APR 29, 2013 click
LG has pipped Samsung to the post to become the first company to sell curved organic LED TVs. Pre-orders for the 15m won (£8,740) TV have opened in South Korea, with shipments expected in June.
At CES 2013, both companies claimed their curved TVs were " the world's first". There is currently no word on when the TV will come to the UK and US.
LG claim that the 55-inch wide, 4.3-millimetre thick TV will give "an IMAX-like viewing experience", saying that the curvature will eliminate screen-edge distortions and improve viewing angles. "The entire screen surface is equidistant from the viewer's eyes, eliminating the problem of screen-edge visual distortion and loss of detail," the company said in a press release..
LG taking pre-orders for curved OLED TV sets in South Korea APR 29, 2013 click
LG on Monday began taking pre-orders for a 55-inch curved OLED TV. The new display, which looks like a flat-screen TV but with a subtle, inward curve, is available for purchase by South Korean customers for $13,500. It will arrive for customers next month.
OLED technology is supposed to provide a more vivid image as well as allow manufacturers to build even thinner TVs. OLED also makes it possible for manufacturers to build curved screens. LG and others in the industry say the advantage of a curved OLED display is that it makes the experience of watching something much more immersive and similar to watching an IMAX movie.
PHOTOS: The top smartphones of 2013
The TV set was on display at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. LG isn't the only company working on a curved OLED TV (so is Samsung), but its TV will be the first made available to consumers..
LG now selling 55-inch Curved OLED TV in South Korea APR 29, 2013 click
LG has taken something that was first considered a concept into consumer reality by announcing that it will start taking pre-orders for its 55-inch Curved OLED TV in South Korea. Consumers who scoop one up will begin receiving them as early as next month, though no official timetable has been released, nor any word of when, or if, the TV will hit Stateside.
LG has plenty of retail stores in South Korea, and 1,400 of them have already begun taking pre-orders today, where customers have been paying the equivalent of $13,500 U.S. each.
The curved model (55EA9800) was shown at CES in Las Vegas in January, but at the time, was considered only to be a conceptual design showing the flexible properties of OLED screens. This announcement marks the first time a manufacturer has begun selling both a curved and flat OLED TV, the latter of which began selling in February, but has since been delayed in the U.S. market..
LG's curved 55-inch OLED TV now open for preorders APR 29, 2013 click
After being the first TV manufacturer to launch an OLED TV, LG is now taking preorders for a new model featuring a curved screen. The 55EA9800, priced at 15 million Korean won (US$13,500), will be available starting from next month, but this is limited to the Korean market for now. Unfortunately, both availability and pricing for other countries will only be announced later.
Despite a sizable 55-inch screen, the 55EA9800 has an alluring 4.3mm-thin side profile and weighs just 17kg. Special "thin-transparent film speakers" are integrated within the panel's stand to maintain a sleek overall design. More importantly, the curved display is touted to deliver an IMAX-like viewing experience, according to the company.
It also shares the same WRGB technology used by the LG 55EM9700, which is now retailing in Korea and the US for around US$10,000.
LG Launches the World's First 55-Inch Curved OLED ... APR 29, 2013 click
Well, that came sooner than expected. Two weeks after LG's announced it will launch a curved OLED TV "later this year," the first such 55-inch device here, available for pre-order in South Korea.
The 55EA9800, as it's called, brings what LG calls an "IMAX-like" experience of the home, with the entire screen surface being equidistant from the viewer's eyes. We haven't thoroughly tested a curved OLED screen yet, so we can't vouch that this entire curved screen business makes the viewing experience better, but it sure looks good, as you can see in the picture above.
The TV is 4.3 millimeters (0.17 inches) thin, weighs 17 kilograms (37.48 pounds), and features LG's WRGB and Color Refiner technologies, which should result in great color and vibrant, natural images.
The LG 55EA9800 is available in South Korea for pre-order in more than 1,400 LG retail stores, for the price of 15 million KRW ($13,500)..
LG will ship OLED TV with curved screen for $13,500 in May APR 29, 2013 click
IDG News Service - LG Electronics has begun accepting pre-orders for its 55-inch curved OLED TV in South Korea, with deliveries to begin next month.
The TV vendors are under pressure to come up with new reasons for consumers to buy new sets, as global LCD TV shipments declined for the first time ever in 2012, according to NPD DisplaySearch. Along with developments such as smart TVs and 4K resolution, LG is hoping the curved screen will differentiate its products from the competition and help build its brand.
LG has been developing the underlying technology for more than five years to get the curvature right. The entire screen surface on the 55EA9800 can be equidistant from viewers eyes if they sit in exactly the right spot, "eliminating the problem of screen-edge visual distortion and loss of detail," according to LG..
LG to start selling curved OLED TVs in South Korea APR 29, 2013 click
LG Electronics says it will begin deliveries of curved OLED television sets next month, making it the first to offer such a product to the public.
The use of organic light-emitting diodes allows screens to be made thinner and more flexible than before.
The 55in (140cm) model will cost 15m won ($13,550; £8,725) and is initially limited to sales in South Korea.
One analyst said that being first to market gave LG "bragging rights", but suggested demand would be limited.
LG Electronics and its rival Samsung Electronics both showed off curved OLED TV prototypes at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January, but did not announce release dates at the time.
The two businesses are part of larger conglomerates that have separate divisions manufacturing their own television display panels. Many of their competitors buy in the components from third parties, making it harder for them to claim such an exclusive..
LG curved-screen 55-inch OLED TV will cost you ... APR 30, 2013 click
Would you pay $13,500 to be the first one on your block with a 55-inch OLED TV with a curved screen? Bases on an announcement this week from LG Electronics, which is now taking orders in Korea for the set, that's what you can expect to pay when its 55EA9800 curved OLED TV arrives here in the U.S. later this year. At CES, Samsung also showed an OLED TV with a curved screen, but the company hasn't yet announced pricing and availability.
What's the big deal about OLED—and why would you want a curved screen?
Where Ultra HD TVs are really LCD TVs with higher-resolution (3840x2160) screens, OLED TVs are a new type of television that use organic material (organic light-emitting diodes) to produce images. Like plasma, OLEDs give off their own light, so no separate backlight is required, and they have unlimited viewing angles. And OLED TVs offer unprecedented blacks and contrast levels that make images and colors really pop on the screen..
LG Takes Orders for New Curved TV APR 30, 2013 click
LG and Samsung both unveiled prototypes of TVs with curved, thin displays at the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show earlier this year, but LG seems to have kicked its OLED marketing efforts into higher gear. It said it expects to begin deliveries of the new TV in Korea beginning June, but buyers will have to pay 15 million Korean won ($13,600) to get their hands on one.
Earlier this year, LG beat Samsung to market with a 55-inch flat-screen OLED TV, becoming the world's first to mass produce a large TV with the next-generation technology. LG has sold more than 200 OLED TVs in Korea since it launched its first flat-screen models in January.
OLED displays are known to have more vivid displays than existing liquid-crystal-display models and enable companies to produce TVs with superthin screens. Samsung already uses them widely for its high-end smartphone models including the latest Galaxy S 4, but has yet to release an OLED TV..
LG Takes Orders for Curved TV APR 30, 2013 click
South Korea's LG Electronics Inc. 066570.SE +0.71% is taking orders for its new 55-inch television with a curved display, again outpacing larger rival Samsung Electronics Co. 005930.SE +1.23% in the race to market the latest in organic light-emitting-diode display technology.

LG's curved OLED launches with Ewan McGregor's help May 01. 2013 click
LG has confirmed that the 55-inch curved OLED TV will be available outside of South Korea by the end of the year at an Australian launch.
LG has announced availability for the 55-inch curved OLED TV in Australia, which is the first country to be confirmed outside of South Korea, and introduced Ewan McGregor as its new brand ambassador.
Though pricing wasn't announced at the Australian launch of the LG 2013 range, the company said the TV will arrive before the end of the year. The set was announced for Korea at 15 million won (around AU$13,100); there is no availability or pricing for other regions, including the U.S.
LG Australia's marketing general manager Lambro Skropidis told CNET Australia that he was unable to say whether the curved version of OLED will arrive before the flat EM9700 OLED panel, which was also revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show this year..
LG 2013 TVs: Everything You Need To Know May 02. 2013 click
Curved OLED, affordable 4K and a handsome, former Jedi: LG is pulling out all the stops when it comes to its TV range this year. Here's what you need to know.
4K/Ultra-High Definition (UHD)
The first stop on our acronym-heavy adventure is LG's range of 4K TVs.
For the uninitiated, 4K — or Ultra-High Definition (UHD) as it's now known — is the new benchmark when it comes to picture quality. 4K refers to the amount of pixels on the panel: 3840 × 2160 in this case. That makes a 4K panel four-times the resolution of a 1080p panel, which is packing 1920 × 1080.
The Consumer Electronics Agency (CEA) came out and officially named the new standard in January, labelling it as Ultra-High Definition.
Right now, the main players with UHD models on the market include Sony, LG and Samsung..

Gains in battle against Gulf War illness
San Diego team hopes to develop first biological diagnosis
Twenty years after the war, veterans suffering from a mysterious constellation of ailments known as Gulf War Syndrome lack definitive answers about what caused their health to deteriorate, how best to treat it, and a cure.
The Veterans Affairs Department issues "presumptive" diagnoses based on patients' symptoms, after ruling out other physical disorders. Now a San Diego research team hopes to develop the first biological diagnosis for Gulf War illness, based on a study of receptors in the lung and nerves linked to respiratory problems for many veterans of the 1990-1991 conflict.
"Patients are continuing to suffer and we still really don't have good ways to either diagnose or treat them," said Dr. Bruce Zuraw, the principal investigator of the Veterans Medical Research Foundation study.
Many scientists have focused on identifying the cause, but a diagnostic mechanism could lead to more effective treatments — including the use of drugs already available or in development — regardless of what triggered the illness, Zuraw said.
"Once there's a diagnostic test it will be much easier to make progress in Gulf War Syndrome. The hard part is this is a rather vaguely defined syndrome right now because we don't have a lab test that shows, yes, you have Gulf War Syndrome or not."
The San Diego study is one of a number of promising scientific developments and findings related to Gulf War illness, which affects about 25 percent of the nearly 700,000 veterans of the conflict, including about 1,600 in the San Diego area.
Results of a study published last week by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center researchers found abnormal blood flow in the brain continued or worsened over an 11-year span since the veterans were diagnosed.
Gulf War Syndrome
About one in four veterans of the Persian Gulf War and Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm developed chronic health problems. Common symptoms include:
• Fatigue
• Headaches
• Joint pain
• Indigestion
• Insomnia
• Dizziness
• Shortness of breath
• Memory problems
• Psychological problems
Although generally known as Gulf War Syndrome, the symptoms vary so widely the Veterans Affairs Department does not consider them to be a true syndrome. Instead, it defines the ailments as "medically unexplained chronic multi-symptom illnesses."
The VA presumes that certain chronic, unexplained symptoms existing for six months or more are related to Gulf War service, regardless of their cause.
Health study
For information about the Veterans Medical Research Foundation study or how to enroll, call (858) 822-6599.
In May, a U.S. Navy officer with the Naval War College in Newport, R.I., postulated (based on research independent of his faculty position) that inhaled microscopic dust from the region laden with toxic metals, fungi and bacteria could be the cause of illnesses seen in veterans of the Gulf War and the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Other potential hazards that Gulf War veterans were exposed to, according to the VA, include burn pits, chemical and biological warfare agents, depleted uranium, oil well fires, pesticides, the anti-nerve agent pyridostigmine bromide, and vaccinations for anthrax and botulinum toxoid.

Simplifying the health plan
When I talk about simplifying, that includes my health and exercise. A few years ago, I decided to get serious about the doctor's lectures on losing weight. I followed recommended diets from healthcare providers, I've tried exercising. And guess what? None of it worked. I weigh more now than ever. During all this time, I've had friends tell me that I looked fine and didn't need to lose weight. So who do you believe?
Earlier this fall, I had an epiphany about my weight. I was on a nasty diet (that didn't work) and eating things that made me miserable. I laid it on the line with God, and told him that if this was how I had to live the rest of my life, then I didn't want to. To which God responded by asking me if I could love my body, no matter what size it is.
I decided to take that challenge.
The other day, I got out of the shower and was doing my usual post-shower stuff, and I caught a glimpse of myself naked in the mirror. But instead of just passing by, I stopped. And really looked at myself, naked. And you know what? I'm not model gorgeous with a perfectly toned tummy. But I look pretty damn good. I've got curves and lumps and bumps and stretch marks and scars, but my husband thinks I'm still hot.
I can remember looking up at the mountains and being in absolute awe of how God shaped the rocks, dotting them with little things to make them unique and beautiful. He did the same thing with our bodies. He put birthmarks and little spots and perfect details that make me uniquely me. And I believe He declared it just as beautiful as we declare the mountains.
It is this lesson that I take with me in simplifying my health. Putting food in my body is going to have me asking the same questions I ask of spending my money. What need is this fulfilling?
Which leads to the tougher question of exercise. I hate it. I can't stay motivated to do it. But I know I need to be more active. So instead of saying that I'm going to exercise more, I'm setting a goal to do something I've always wanted to do. I've always wanted to climb a mountain. My BFF and I have talked about doing it for years. This year, we're going to do it. At our next tea date, we're setting the date, and I'll be spending the months leading up to it getting in shape. That to me has more power, motivation, and importance than just going to the gym to get exercise.
Right now, this all sounds a lot easier said than done. To be honest, that's part of why I'm blogging about it. Because I hope that when I make disparaging comments about my appearance, one of my friends will smack me upside the head and remind me of what God showed me about my true beauty. I hope people will ask me about climbing the mountain and remind me that it's not going to happen sitting on my butt every day.
My goal isn't about being the perfect image of what the world thinks is attractive. I'm attractive to my husband, I'm attractive to my God, and moving forward, I simply want to take care of what I have, improve upon what I can, and in the end, accept myself for what I am.

Finance Minister Tendai Biti announced on Thursday that growth projections for the current year had to be reduced and inflation figures revised higher, mainly because diamonds did not produce as much income as had been expected.
Last year Biti predicted that revenue from mining and agriculture would help the country's economy to grow by over 9 per cent in 2012.
But in his quarterly economic update, the Finance Minister told reporters the economy had experienced a difficult period in the first quarter of the year, with diamonds bringing less revenue than he had predicted.
It was revealed that the stones from the Marange alluvial fields accounted for $30.5-million of revenue in the first quarter of 2012. A target $123-million had been set by government.
The Minister used the word "opaqueness" in reference to diamond sale activity, alluding to what many Zimbabweans call "the lack of transparency" which the Mugabe regime has maintained regarding the sale of the precious stones.
In the past Biti himself has admitted that the government is being prejudiced of millions of dollars in diamond revenue, which does not make it into government coffers.
The country's total revenue for the first three months of 2012 was $771 million, far below the government target of $870-million. Minister Biti also attributed the decline to a general decline in global demand for minerals, which bring in the bulk of Zimbabwe's export income.

boudoir photography with the 50mm lens
With shooting space often times so tight for boudoir photo sessions, there is the temptation to use a 50mm lens for tighter headshots on a full-frame D-SLR. Instead of stepping back a bit and using an 85mm lens or longer, a bit of visual laziness comes into play, and we rely on the 50mm lens too much. It really is too short a focal length for a tight portrait. I think many photographers are even too in love with their 50mm lenses, and use it without thought of how this would distort someone's face when used too close to their subjects.
I totally understand the need for compromise. Quite often the angle we need to shoot from, dictates a shorter-than-ideal focal length – whether because of the shape of the room, or the direction of the light. This still doesn't make the 50mm a good lens to shoot tight portraits with. A longer focal length would still give you more flattering results.
The example photographs in this article are by Petra Herrmann, Kansas City boudoir photographer. Petra also maintains the Business of Boudoir, website which has a lot of useful info for boudoir photographers.
She used a 50mm lens for these images, but kept to half-length as the closest distance to photograph her subject. The 50mm really is more of an environmental portrait type lens, rather than a tight portrait lens.

cats' tongues
Categories: Dessert
Known as langues-de-chat in France and lingue di gatto in Italy, these long, thin cookies resemble their namesakes in shape. They are light, dry and slightly sweet. Cats' tongues may be flavored with citrus zest, chocolate or flavoring extracts. Two are sometimes sandwiched together with jam or another sweet filling; they may also be frosted. Cats' tongues are commonly made by pressing a thick batter through a pastry bag. A special langues-de-chat pan is also available in cookware shops. It has ten 3-inch long indentations with a slight hourglass curve in the middle.
