MONDAY, July 7, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- While rare, breast cancer does occur in men and is often diagnosed at a later age and stage than in women, experts say.
Each year in the United States, about 2,000 cases of male breast cancer are diagnosed and about 500 men die from the disease. It can strike at any age, but is most often diagnosed among men at ages 60 to 70, which is five to 10 years later than in women.
Breast cancer in men is typically diagnosed at a later age and stage than in women because men don't believe they're at risk for the disease, said Dr. Tatiana Prowell, a medical oncologist and breast cancer scientific lead at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's office of hematology and oncology products.
"You'd think that because men have smaller breasts they would notice a lump instantly. But men don't expect a breast lump to be cancer, whereas most women who feel a breast lump immediately assume the worst," she said in an FDA news release.
Because breast cancer in men accounts for only 1 percent of all breast cancer cases, there is little research into treatments for men with the disease.
"We tend to treat men the same way we treat women," Prowell said.
"Men have historically been excluded from breast cancer trials," she added. "We are actively encouraging drug companies to include men in all breast cancer trials unless there is a valid scientific reason not to. The number of men in breast cancer trials will still be small because male breast cancer is a rare condition, but any information to help men facing this disease is better than none."
Most men with breast cancer have painless lumps that can be detected by touch, but the disease usually isn't diagnosed until they develop soreness, she said.
More information
The U.S. National Library of Medicine has more about male breast cancer.

Where do I start? Yesterday I replaced the stock tires on the Torker Graduate and went for spin down the Southern California Coast. My spin turned out to be 45 miles ending at Oceanside California; this has a lot to do with the Freedom Ryder tires, they were trouble free and allowed me to keep rolling until my legs were fried.
With 80 psi in the tires I thought it would be a rough ride. It was not and yet still very grippy in the loose stuff. The miles just kept clicking off; part of the ride was though Camp Pendleton Marine Base. The bike path on the base can be rough at times and can flat a tire with ease — the tires held up great over slab cracks and gravel.
I feel these tires were a great addition to the Torker. After running down the gutter on a very narrow street loaded with cars, the outside lugs were able to drive the tire up the raised pavement and out of the gutter without skipping the sidewall -- at this moment I was sold. I got to the beach safely and enjoyed a sweet sunset while I waited for my wife and kids to pick me up.

I know, I know, politics is one of three subjects you shouldn't discuss in public--the other two being Kardashians and what the Royals look like naked--but for those who do want to discuss politics here's a place. I'm not a moderator, but if I were I'd just say that all views are legitimate, but crazy, paranoid tin-foil baiting of those you don't agree with won't sit well here, so politeness is a good thing.
Anyway, I was going to post this in the Frustration thread, but I thought this was a better place. I'm frustrated because as a dedicated and fanatical supporter of President Obama, I felt sick at how Mitt Romney totally cleaned his clock in last night's presidential debate. Everything Romney said I find totally odious, and yet he articulated his positions well, was constantly on the attack, and made his points very well, while Obama seemed to simply stand there and take it. Case in point: most of it was done in a split screen view. Whether Romney was speaking or not speaking, he always looked at Obama, creating the impression that was paying attention and respecting his opponent. Whenever Obama was listening, he'd look down. It looked like he was a beta bog being submissive to a pack leader. And when he did speak, he seemed uncertain, distant, and often inarticulate.
It kills me, because Romney said so many things that Obama could have torn him apart on simply by referring to Romney long history of stupid statements. But he didn't. By trying to act conservative, he lost the battle and made Romney look much better in the process. I sure as hell hope that he gets better debate coaches and spends a lot more time boning on his facts (which he often finds hard to remember), or he has a good chance of blowing this thing for good.

When André Gide first read Le Cousin Pons, he was "dans le ravissement, dans l'extase, ivre, perdu…" ["in raptures, in ecstasy, intoxicated, lost…"] (104; my translation). Although one of Balzac's last novels, Gide admired it as perhaps his greatest. Written between June 1846 and May 1847, and first published in serial form in Le Constitutionnel, it forms one panel of the diptych Les Parents Pauvres [The Poor Parents], with La Cousine Bette [Cousin Bette] forming the other. Balzac's novel, like its eponymous hero, is rather jaundiced, offering an unblinking portrayal of a greedy, grasping society in which all human values are …

Strands of Perfectly Hand Matched, Individually Knotted, Polished, Genuine Glass First Lady Pearls
A true elegance and style that has withstood the test of time. Beauty that works for everyone from our First Lady to the youngest little lady. The beauty our First Ladies have been proud to wear for the last 50 years. From Jackie Kennedy to Michelle Obama, every First Lady has loved the look of genuine pearls.
Each First Lady necklace has 61 perfectly matched, hand-tied and polished, genuine glass pearls, the matching pierced earrings, and the free bracelet has 20 of the same perfectly matched pearls.
A hand-knot is placed between each pearl by Lindenwold Fine Jewelers' renowned craftsmen, just like the finest of all pearl necklaces. A hand-tied knot is placed after each pearl is strung on to the necklace for perfect spacing and so, in case for some reason it should break, all of your pearls do not go flying to the floor. Each necklace has a perfect-size lobster claw clasp so anyone can easily take it on and off.
You will feel like a million dollars each and every time you put them on... $34 is such a small price to pay to feel this beautiful, classy and sexy. Such a small price to be among the most elite in the country... such a small price to feel like a true unstoppable woman.

The arrival of former Cagliari forward David Suazo at the club this summer has left Adriano out of favour with the Nerazzurri as Hernan Crespo, Julio Cruz, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Suazo are all ahead of the Brazilian on Roberto Mancini´s list.

The equation of state (EOS) and other parameters at high pressures and low temperatures are of significant interest. One example is iron, where knowledge of the EOS at high pressure is needed to understand planetary interiors and planetary development. Targets are needed to perform these important measurements on experimental platforms such as Omega, National Ignition Facility (NIF), and the Z-machine. There is a need for thicker films for targets for the NIF and Z-machine platforms, which is technically challenging because of coating stress and other issues. We present results showing that we successfully sputter deposited stepped iron and tantalum films up to 90+ m thick for targets on NIF and have sputter deposited (unstepped) tantalum films over 1700 m (1.7 mm!) thick, which are desired for targets for Z-machine EOS experiments. This is generally made possible by the low stress achieved in the tantalum films (as low as 25 MPa). We will also report some process improvement achievements, such as a shaper roll-off for the Fe step edges, as well as some characterization results of the microstructure of the very thick films. For example, interruption of the growth with a brief ambient exposure appears to have a minor impact on the columnar grain growth.

The Campus Access Services office offers an examination proctoring service to facilitate the faculty's provision of reasonable accommodations which are not readily available in the classroom (such as: quiet, distraction-limited environment; use of a computer and/or assistive technology, use of auxiliary aids). Students should follow the procedures below to access the Exam Proctoring Service:
Upon approval from the Campus Access Services office, a Verification of Disability/Request for Reasonable Accommodation letter will be issued for each course a student requests accommodations.Among the accommodations identified on this form are those for quizzes and exams.
It is the student's responsibility to disclose to faculty his/her request for test/quiz accommodations and to provide the faculty member with the Verification/Accommodation letter.
When a student becomes aware of an upcoming exam or quiz, he/she must schedule an appointment for an exam to be administered by the Campus Access Services office at least one week in advance.Students needing auxiliary aides such as readers or scribes should ensure that they request them when making an appointment. The Campus Access Services office cannot guarantee the provision of the service for late or same day requests.
Exams/quizzes should be scheduled to be taken at the same time as it is administered in the class excepting schedule conflicts such as back-to-back classes that would not allow for use of reasonable accommodations such as extended time, or in the case of evening or Saturday classes.
The student should also remind the faculty member of needed accommodations prior to each exam/quiz.With notice, exams are generally delivered to Campus Access Services by faculty in advance of the student's appointment to ensure its availability on the scheduled date and time.
Once the examination has been taken by the student, exams are scanned and sent directly to the faculty member by email for grading.
- Students are required to request exam/quiz accommodations each semester in the same manner as they are required to request other reasonable accommodations.

While similar to the Wii title in terms of a unique heavily animated art style and battle-heavy concept, the game implements the nonlinear map-focused core from titles like Super Metroid or Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. It may seem like a melting pot of concepts, but Dust definitely feels like its own beast based on what we've played recently.
Players control a warrior named Dust on a 2D fantasy world; this sword-slinger can definitely take care of himself with his repertoire of moves. Pressing a combination of X and Y will make Dust perform quick sword slashes, air launchers, and even a series of stabs topped with a ground and air throw. After acquiring a power-up on the E3 2012 demo of the game early on, Dust gets the ability to perform a sword-spinning technique called Dust Storm.
Pressing and holding Y by itself will make Dust spin his sword in a wide radius to damage any foes within its path. While it looks great and is practical, you can't actually do it for too long. Dust will gradually turn red as he keeps doing the move; perform it for too long, and he'll knock himself out and get hurt.
Our hero also has a flying furry pixie who can shoot out pixie bullets. On its own, it isn't impressive, but if players combine it with the Dust Storm, they can unleash a conflagration of pixie bullets that can really do serious damage. We hope that more of these combinations will surprise us in the final game, because they look really spectacular and practical.
The demo itself let us explore a bit of the combat. We were faced with hordes of ghouls and mutants that fell prey to our main character's attacks and Dust Storm move. It wasn't all button-mashing the X and Y buttons though. There was a section where we had to use the Dust Storm and pixie bullet magic combo to hit a summoner that's impervious to conventional melee attacks.
At the tail end of the demo, we had to deal with a shield-bearing rock golem who we could only disarm and stun by doing a parry. Holding X while in accordance to an enemy's attack animation will push back its attack and leave it momentarily stunned. Even with the swarm of mini-dragons protecting the golem, it wasn't enough from our counterattack. Combat may seem like a huge focus for Dust, but there were bits where we had to use the sword wielder's slide to get past thorny barriers and navigate through chasms with updrafts while not getting hurt by spikes on the ceiling.
Complete with a gem upgrade system, and RPG-esque items-equipping and numbers-flying damage indicators, Dust seems to be doing a spectacular job being a map-based action-RPG platformer with eye-popping Disney-esque aesthetics. Gamers who dig that sort of mix will be glad to know that it will be out later this year under the Xbox Live Summer of Arcade release schedule.

notes from an imperfect utopia
By enelson
Thursday, July 20th, 2006 at 11:27 pm in Environment, Funding, Safety.
To start with, free transit is good, smog or no smog.
At least thats what nearly everyone Ive talked about it believes.
Secondly, free things are often taken for granted.
Photo by Josh Birnbaum – STAFF
Think of the panhandler on the street who sneers when your donation doesn't meet with his expectations.
With those points established it's time for the kvetching.
Complaining, that is, about Spare the Air Days' unprecedented run of free transit, six days, starting with June 23 and ending tomorrow, unless the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District can scrape
together a few more millions to cover any other bad air patches we might hit between now and October 13.
What's to complain about, you ask?
- Monthly pass holders still pay. A colleague just came up to me and noted that "people who are on monthly passes are (let's just say, "cheated"). My girlfriend has a monthly pass on Muni ahd she said she doesn't get anything out of this." This is true, but as I pointed out, most pass holders, with the possible exception of AC Transit riders, probably already saved as much as they would have if they had paid daily fares and rode free for three days in June and three days in July.
- Commuter crush. One Bart Rage poster had this lament: "I usually really like Spare the Air days, cuz I save a couple bucks on BART. Monday's, however, was extremely unpleasant. Since everyone wants a free ride, at 5 p.m. when all the commuters were getting off work (myself included) the 12th Street Oakland BART station was jam packed. There were at least double, if not triple the amount of people down there that there normally would be. When the Fremont train arrived, it too was jam-packed. We all tried to get on the train, and the operator closed the doors on us! I realize that they are on a schedule, but bruising your passengers arms isn't very nice!
- Its expensive. At more than $2 million a day, the six budgeted (three of them technically yet-to-be approved) Spare the Air free-transit days add up. The tally is now at $13.6 million, give or take. Some have suggested that the money might be better spent improving transportation.
- It attracts ner-do-wells, the de-institutionalized and freeloading tourists to transit. This has been noticed by nearly everyone Ive talked to about fare-free days, mostly on BART and the Sausalito ferry service, which is a piker-tourist magnet.
- Its value is unproven. This is perhaps the strongest argument that Spare the Air is a big waste of money. So far, no one has been able to demonstrate that free fares + more riders = fewer cars and less smog. Its an eminently logical assumption, but some are calling for empirical evidence.
Most of these complaints are annoyances that detract from the secondary purpose of encouraging people to use transit even when they have to pay. An air district official responded, paradoxically, that if commuters don't like some of the negatives of free transit, they should try transit that isn't free.
But the cost-benefit question is a big one with no adequate answer. The bottom line is that denizens of the Bay Area have to believe that more transit use and less driving is better, and that's not such a difficult pitch to make.
And the monthly pass question may be discouraging for those of us who are already blue-ribbon campers, but it's not as if we're going to start driving again in protest. And the money you save on a monthly pass is probably more (unless you're an AC Transit pass holder and you have my sympathies) than you would have saved by getting three free days in June and three more in July.

A couple of weeks ago, the co-chairmen of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles, released a draft report, updated this week, that contained an odd provision for a document that was supposed to be solely concerned with deficit reduction. It was a proposal to fundamentally restructure the federal income tax system by broadening the tax base and slashing tax rates. Simpson and Bowles would eliminate $1.1 trillion in so-called tax expenditures and reduce the top income tax rate from 35 percent to just 23 percent under one option.
Conservatives have been giddy ever since because there is nothing in the world that excites them more than cuts in tax rates. The flat tax has been the Holy Grail of conservative tax policy since at least the early 1980s. They even got pretty close to it in 1986, when Ronald Reagan succeeded in getting the top statutory income tax rate down to 28 percent. (His hand-picked successor, George H.W. Bush, quickly undid Reagan's work and agreed to an increase in the top rate to 31 percent in 1990. Needless to say, the tax expenditures that were eliminated as part of the 1986 deal were not restored.)
Unfortunately, this obsession with statutory tax rates has blinded conservatives to two elements of tax policy that are substantially more important. The first is the tax base – what is taxed by the tax system. The second is the effective tax rate – the rate that actually applies once various adjustments have been made to gross income – exemptions, exclusions, deductions, credits and so on. Effective rates can vary substantially from those that nominally apply to a given income and are the ones that really matter for incentives. According to a recent study by the Tax Policy Center, even among the top one percent of taxpayers, effective income tax rates vary from 2.6 percent for those in the bottom 10 percent (of the top one percent) to 26.9 percent among the top 10 percent (of the top one percent).
thought-through issue that Congress considered in
terms of its impact on federal revenues or health policy.
It may surprise people to discover that nowhere in tax law is the basic term "income" defined. In practice, it basically means cash flow, but the Internal Revenue Service is not constrained from taxing noncash income. In many cases, it is simply historical practice and the constraints imposed by its limited resources that keep it from taxing many types of income. The most obvious is the exclusion for employer-provided health insurance. It's obviously a form of employee compensation, but is completely tax free. Employers deduct the cost as a business expense, just as they deduct cash wages, but although workers pay taxes on cash wages they are required neither to report nor pay taxes on their health benefits.
Interestingly, the exclusion for health insurance wasn't a carefully thought-through issue that Congress considered in terms of its impact on federal revenues or health policy. It came into existence in 1943 because wage and price controls prevented employers from increasing cash wages to attract workers at a time when there was a significant labor shortage. They began offering noncash benefits as part of their compensation and the IRS – no doubt to its everlasting regret – decided that health benefits were not taxable to employees as an administrative measure.
In other cases, court decisions have limited the government's ability to tax certain forms of income. Probably the best example is unrealized capital gains, which the Supreme Court ruled to be nontaxable in a 1920 decision. Only realized gains may be taxed, it said, thus giving investors sole discretion on how and when to recognize that particular form of income.
Tax theorists don't even agree exactly what income is. The dominant definition is one that is far broader than that which applies in practice. It was developed by two economists, Robert M. Haig and Henry Simons, who defined it as consumption during the course of a calendar year plus the change in net worth. Thus unrealized capital gains would be taxed annually, as well as many other forms of currently untaxed income. Theoretically, this would include not only things like health benefits, but even the imputed rent that homeowners pay to themselves by virtue of being both landlord and tenant in their own house. In 2009, imputed rent added more than $1 trillion to personal income according to the Commerce Department.
for the calculation of effective tax rates, incentive and fairness.
Many economists have long objected to the overly broad definition of income proposed by Haig and Simons, as well as the adverse economic consequences if it were applied in practice. The great economist Irving Fisher argued strenuously that consumption alone is the most appropriate tax base, and almost all economists agree that the full taxation of saving and investment would be a bad idea because it would reduce economic growth.

For Grand Rapids resident Dione Ford, family has always come first. Ford dropped out of high school when she became pregnant at 17, and like many teen mothers, a further education and the career opportunities that it opens just didn't seem to be in the cards. Almost 20 years later, , a spur-of-the-moment decision to visit Everest Institute with a friend changed her outlook completely.
After raising her children, Ford decided it was time to take care of herself. Ford enrolled at the Everest Institute-Grand Rapids campus the very same day as her visit to pursue both her GED and a diploma from the medical assistant program simultaneously.
Ford remained diligent in her studies – even when a major family tragedy struck – and for her perseverance and dedication, Everest Institute-Grand Rapids is honoring her with the 2011 Dream Award. The award recognizes one graduate who has completed a post-secondary education while overcoming extraordinary challenges.
Shortly after beginning her studies, Ford's nephew was struck and killed by a motor vehicle. Despite the immense toll his death took on her family, Ford stuck to her goal and persevered through her studies. Within 90 days of beginning her program, she finally earned her GED – something that eluded her for nearly 20 years.
Ford approached the remainder of her program with the same hard work and persistence, earning a 3.43 GPA and securing four potential sites to complete the externship portion of her program. Ford was hired from her externship with Dr. Robert Roberts in Grand Rapids Charter Township – his office's first new hire in approximately six years.
She is currently employed by both Dr. Robert Roberts and Grand Rapids Women's Health. In her spare time, Ford volunteers at her children's school, and actively works with the Grand Rapids Public School board on various campaigns in her community.
"Dione never gave up in the face of her challenges," said Ruth Stewart, president at Everest Institute-Grand Rapids. "She's a shining example that it's never too late to make a positive change for your life, and we wish her continued success in fulfilling her education and career goals."
As a Dream Award winner, Robinson will receive a $2,500 Everest scholarship to pursue further education.

The booth where we were today was nice with foot traffic but there is no
power. There are solar power people close to us but they don't have any
solar panels, just papers. We might see about getting another booth
tomorrow, there are at least two other solar companies at WEF who do
have panels. Other than that, everything was great. The educational
booths are supposed to leave at 6:00 and it took just under an hour to
pack up, so the last shift can be shorter.

What is it?
"Garden Warfare" is a new vision of the strategy game "Plants vs. Zombies." In a traditional "Plants vs. Zombies" title, gamers manipulate a 2D environment by placing sunflowers, walnuts, pea pods and a wide variety of other vegetables and fungi in front of a house to protect it from a zombie horde. The game has become a tower defense classic playable on almost any device. "Garden Warfare" has evolved the series and turned it into a tower defense/shooter hybrid, with gamers now working in a 3D environment.

The Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) is the annual fundraising drive conducted among federal government employees in their workplaces. This campaign is organized through the Office of Personnel Management – the federal government's human resources agency.
The mission of the CFC is to "promote and support philanthropy through a program that is employee focused, cost-efficient, and effective in providing all federal employees the opportunity to improve the quality of life for all." CFC is further described as "the world's largest and most successful annual workplace charity campaign." Millions of dollars are raised for charities around the world.
During the campaign season that runs from September 1 through December 15, federal, military, and postal employees make pledges to charities. Their contributions benefit eligible nonprofit organizations – including the Histiocytosis Association – that provide health and human service benefits globally.
Organizations are approved for participation through an annual application process, and each organization is assigned a CFC number. The Histiocytosis Association's CFC number is 10200. If you participate in the CFC Campaign, please note this number when filling out your campaign card. Your donation can be made in a one-time contribution or through payroll deductions.
If you do not work for the federal government or the military, perhaps you know someone who does that would like to participate in the Campaign. For more information on the Combined Federal Campaign, please visit www.opm.gov/cfc.
Please call the Histiocytosis Association at +1 856-589-6606 or email firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.

What I (don't) want from a fly fishing video
Certain effects and ideas seem to be in fashion in the fishing video business. I'm pretty fed up with some of them.
GFF Fly Fishing Video Channel just around New Year last year and started adding videos to it. That in effect also increased the DVD review frequency because a lot of fly fishing film people out there noticed us and started contacting us about DVD's for review.
The net result has been that I have watched more video minutes these past months than ever before.
That has made me think about the style and trends in fly fishing videos. I have written about the subject and the development before, but this time I will go into details, and look at some specific production methods, which are often used by fly fishing video producers. There are a lot of different ways of producing video, but it seems that certain little tricks or styles have become fashionable, and can be found in lots of videos - on longer DVD's as well as in shorter online videos.
I am no video-shooter myself, and I don't know much about video production, but I have my opinions, and in stead of telling people how to make videos, I'll look at some of the trendy things, which I definitely don't like.
That might not be the most constructive way to go about things, but I'll rather let the creative folks out there come up with great new stuff, and maybe let this push them in a direction, which I would like.
The things that I mention are not grabbed out of thin air, but occur in many videos - in most cases you will find more than one of my dislikes in the same video - even in short ones lasting only a few minutes.
Scratchy, old film look
Now, one of the blessings of modern videos is the fantastic quality that can be recorded by even the most humble video camera. Many camcorders shoot full HD. Digital SLR's shoot 720p or 1080p with exceptional results due to great lenses, and most compact Point&Shoot cameras can produce some amazing video in the right hands.
So why would you take that excellent video and add grain, noise, scratches and all kinds of flaws artificially?
Unless you are doing a silent movie or trying to show Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton fly fishing--or really do have vintage fly fishing footage--leave the images in full quality. I can forgive a B&W sequence thrown in there for good measures, but even that is kind of artsy and not really my cuppa.
My advice: Many of us have high def screens, Blue Ray DVD players, HDMI-cables that cost 10 dollars a foot. Let's utilize all that nice hardware and show us all the beauty and quality that your expensive recording gear can muster.
Time lapse of drifting clouds
The technique is known as time lapse, and while it looks great when you see it the first time, it quickly grows old and tired, and while a single time lapse in a video now and then can be forgiven, please, please, please don't stuff in time lapse scenes every time you show a mountainous landscape or have some blue sky with white clouds!
My advice: Show landscapes in real time, let clouds drift as clouds drift, and use your editing skills to mix close ups of details, large vistas and different views of the same scene to make them appealing and memorable.
Superfast scenes
And while we're at the fast scenes, my other pet peeve is the super fast forward scenes of people fishing, walking, tying flies, eating or whatnot.
It's not fascinating.
It's not funny.
It's annoying to look at.
People walking fast like small mechanical dolls on a trail.
People fishing with eternally repetitive painstakingly fast casts and waves going ripples on a stormy day.
People loading up a boat in 25 seconds, while everybody knows it takes 25 mninutes.
In other words: it's the exact opposite of what I guess is the aim: speeding up things a bit and making them interesting. Whenever I get to a scene like that I get only one urge: to skip forward to some real time scenes.
My advice: If it's so boring that you have to speed it up to bring us quickly through it, please just leave it out! Speeding it up will not make it more interesting!
Use your editing skills and a mix of perspective and angles in stead to make things interesting. And consider that the reason it needs all these tricks in the first place might be that it's simply no good.
Slow motion
So we've covered the fast end. Guess how I will treat the slow one? Yup, you guessed it! Just run at natural speed, huh?
I know it's tempting to display the grandeur of the jumping steelhead of the rattling gill plates of that monstrous tarpon in stretched out detail, and have the split second it lasts drawn into a long sequence. But honestly: I'm more impressed by the real speed of things than by a slowed down camcorder shot, which only reveals the mediocre quality of the images and really doesn't show me anything but blurry details.
And if you absolutely want to go slow, why does the soundtrack have to go slow too? Bringing a humble splash down to become an earth quake rumble and the angler's "yes" down to the roar of a giant is not really becoming for either.
I just get bored. And by the way: it doesn't get better because you repeat it!
My advice: Look at people who shoot real slow motion. Look as disciplines such as skiing, snow boarding, mountain and trick biking and skate boarding. These guys shoot with large and expensive high speed cameras cranking out hundreds if not thousands of images a second, plan for days and shoot only the best of the best scenes under the best of the best conditions in slomo. Red cameras and Phantoms is the order of the day, and 1052 frames per second in full HD is a nice outset for a good slow motion scene.
You go out and do the same, and I won't say a bad word about it.
"Cast" intros
I like to learn to know the people in a video, but not through an intro worthy of a full length cinema feature. I want to see some fishing action, not learn the nicknames of your fishing friends.
Likewise with guides who appear on your footage. Sure they expect something in return for taking you fishing, but while I'm sitting there waiting for tarpon, steelhead or redfish, I don't really care whether it's Captain This or Captain That who is at the helm, and if a lodge offered you a free meal or a bed, that doesn't make their neat rooms, well set tables or fireplaces extremely interesting to me.
My advice: Leave the credits to the end, and if you want to give the involved people some special exposure, just go for it in a separate section. It's only fair that they get their due, but not before the whole thing starts. A short intro is fine, and then leave the long credits till after the show.
And pay back the guides or the lodges by showing us what a great a time you had with them. Use natural, unacted scenes rather than boring pans of well groomed and nicely dressed people of mixed gender sitting by the fireplace with each their posh glass of red wine. We all know that you are a bunch of smelly guys in baggy fleece trousers each sucking on a freshly opened beer and a fag sitting at the computer checking out the weather and your Facebook profile.
So all you video producers...
...look at the best videos out there. Not just the fishing ones, but the works done by the best videographers out there. Let yourself inspire by still photos, movies and TV-features that utilize the media without any cheap tricks.

When is F1 going to wake up and change itself for its fans? I count myself as a die-hard F1 fan, but fundamental changes need to be made to improve the show, or else millions more will switch off.
The issue is crystal-clear in my head right now, because I've just seen the most dramatic race for, well, maybe ever – certainly for as long as I can remember. It was as if the realisation of how engrossing and entertaining motor racing can be was rammed back into my head with a pick-axe, after too many years spent falling asleep during F1 broadcasts.
It was a mighty race, full of action and drama and a terrific fighting finish which made last year's F1 finale in Brazil seem about as exciting as, well, an F1 race. As I staggered away from Daytona, clutching a tee-shirt and hat to commemorate my being there for possibly the greatest race ever run,I was thinking that ultimately I should thank the governing body – the same people who run NASCAR – which allowed these Grand Am drivers to compete in equal machines. More on that later.
The Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona saw the four lead cars virtually nose-to-tail, battling it out for 24 hours and especially the last three, culminating in a balls-out, cut-and-thrust slipstream scrap in the final hour between Juan Pablo Montoya and David Donohue. Donohue's Porsche-powered Daytona prototype (below), which qualified on pole by a thousandth of a second, was quicker on the straights, while Montoya's Lexus (right) handled better on the tight infield.
And Montoya – and this is something even Donohue might concede – was the only truly world-class mega-driver in the field, despite the presence of guys like Dario Franchitti, Jimmie Johnson and Scott Dixon, and his skill made a big difference. Montoya was majestic – precise, combative, brilliant, aggressive but unerringly fair, technically perfect, wrestling a car that shouldn't have been anywhere near the lead into a fight to the finish.
I had the feeling I was watching the greatest racing driver on earth on this day – what a loss to F1 the Colombian is. Donohue was damn good, too, fired up to fever pitch by the fact that he'd be scoring his first win at the Daytona 24hrs on the 40th anniversary of his father Mark's last victory here. Mark Donohue was killed in a testing accident when David was eight.
Seeing Montoya hold off Donohue after the last stops was electrifying. I was on my feet every lap, watching them hurtle toward me at 190mph on Daytona's banking and yelling at the top of my voice as they went by, side-by-side, lap after lap. Donohue would duck out and go high on the tri-oval, Montoya would stay low and try to shake his rival out of the draft and defend his line, then there'd be a do-or-die braking duel at the end of the straight, cars twitching right on the edge of control, followed by a similar scene on the far side of the track into the bus stop.
Eventually Donohue got by, but it took every ounce of skill he could muster. Then Montoya clung onto him for the best part of an hour, trying to force the American into a mistake that never came. In the end, after 24 hours of racing and 735 laps, the gap between first and second was 0.167sec, with 10.589 seconds covering the first four cars. And my voice was completely knackered.
What underpinned the whole event was the fact that regulations governing the cars allowed these racing drivers to race, in precisely the same way that modern F1 cars don't. I have a sneaking suspicion that the new rules for F1 in 2009, while a step in the right direction, haven't gone far enough, and we'll be watching more processions. If I don't see proper scraps and changes of position and dices for the lead, I might have to switch F1 off for good.
And that's a crying shame, because the F1 grid – or at least, the upper quarter of it – is full of world-class mega-drivers the equal of Montoya. And they would put on an even better show if they were given cars that allowed them to fight. But they're wasted. Let's have some more sweeping rule changes! Let's make F1 a racing show and have these guys go at each other! Hear me, Max!
Daytona prototypes of the Grand Am series are fast and dramatic to watch live, but also relatively inexpensive and simple. Smaller teams can fight with the bigger ones. Downforce is low, power is high, braking distances are long with steel brakes and the engines are equalized as closely as the officials can manage it. The premium is on driver skill.
This blog has gone on far too long but I don't care – something needs to be done about F1 to fix it once and for all and deliver some racing. Let's keep lobbying the FIA.

hydration pack/vest
Hi All,
I am in the market for a hydration pack or vest. I have a camel bak HAWG that I use for cycling and short day hikes. I am looking for one to use for trail running. I have seen a number of different makes of them. Some things they have in common are: 100 oz bladder, very light mesh construction, pockets on the shoulders and hips, chest strap, and not too large compartment in back.
If anyone has any experience with things like this I would certainly appreciate some input. Here are a couple of the ones I've looked at:
What some other alternatives?
Thanks in advance.
Hydration Vest
I hate running with a camelback. I tried the camelback flash flow and did not really like that either. In the end I went witth the Amphipod and 4 bottles. It was the least offensive while running, plus it had a pouch for gels and an ID. Fuel belt would work as well. I resisted the belt style hydration systems at first because I did not want to refill a bunch of little bottles, but in the end it was the most comfortable solution. What I like about the Amphipod is that it is scaleable.
Thanks Mike,
I'll take a look at the Amphipod. My hesitation with the belt style is also filling bottles, but additionally the bouncing and lack of stability. Do you ever have hip pain where the pack sits?? Thanks again for the alternate point of view.
I run a lot of trails. I was never able to get comfortable with either the camelbak or the belts. In the end I've settled for hand helds (one or two depending on the distance). Some will complain about sore elbows/tendinitis...but most trail runners don't lift weights and have weak arms. I've never had a problem. YMMV
Hydration Vest
I have done many 15 plus mile runs with the system and had no problems. You really don't notice it much at all. It is asjustable enough to put the bottles where you want them. You can also get a large bottle for it and just use one or two bottles.
I used to run with the Mule and a hand held bottle with a strap...the waist belts never had the capacity I needed, and I had to carry food as well. Of course four hour runs in the high desert may not be what you are into!
I stopped by Runner's warehouse on the way home from work and picked up the Camelbak Octane 8. I tried on the Nathan 2.0L and it was really neat, but I could not even carry a rain jacket in it.
I'm not there yet, but a four hour run in the desert would be great some day... What kind of strap did you use for your hand held bottles? Runners warehouse had some for between $16 and $25 with straps. I'm not sure about the straps...
Do you carry gels (munchies), keys, phone, first aid, GPS type stuff? Do you use the bottle straps with the little pouches built in? How do you manage inclimate weather ie: rain, cold mornings to warmer afternoons, and ect...
The high dessert/dry mountain stuff is a blast, but sometimes you have to haul two full bladders to get where you want to go...the cool thing where I was (Flagstaff) is I could easily overnight out of a camelback Rim Runner.

When discussing waste and the environment most everyone knows that we need to reduce our waste for future generations. However it is easier said then done of course. After reading some of the comments on my past blog posts I couldn't help but think about how a person's environment changes the way we use, and dispose of waste. I also thought about how a person's financial status would change the amount of waste each person produces.
I understand that I'm bringing financial into my environmental blog but I think both go hand in hand. Someone with more money might be able to buy materials that conserve the most and be best for the environment. With that said however it doesn't mean that people with lower means can't do anything for the environment. There are easy changes that everyone can change to, and although it sounds preachy I myself need to stick by these solutions as well.
Epa.com asks everyone to do there part by doing the little things, "like buying in bulk items that won't necessarily go bad, buy items that will stand the test of time, reuse items, borrow items to and from neighbors and friends, use reusable materials for everyday task like; tuberware when packing a lunch, reusable bags or old store bags at stores, keeping track of "paper-work" electronically, etc." These are ways that all people can do their part regardless of means.
However when buying organically or without the waste of big corporations is another task entirely. I believe that there is a difference between the spending habits of a stay at home mom or dad and a single person with a high income. Although both should be aware of what their buying and who they are buying from, however a mother may be pinching her pennies a bit more. Both are hypothetical but representations. It could go the other way too. A single man or woman barely making ends meet at their job and a soccer mom who has a husband who has an expendable income.

Why Did Castle Kill Off Montgomery? Andrew Marlowe Tells All
Plus: The Castle Creator Talks About Season 4!
Where do we start? Last night's Castle finale was — as promised — epic. Intense. Crazy. Over-the-top. And then, ultimately, tear-jerking. And did we mention frustrating? 'Cause it was. We have so many unanswered questions!
Luckily, Castle creator Andrew Marlowe took a moment to chat with TV Guide after the finale and respond to a few biting finale questions.
For starters, where did the idea to kill off Captain Montgomery and — perhaps more importantly — tie him into Beckett's mother's murder come from? Marlowe dished that it "grew organically out of the series, out of who he is to Beckett and why he's such a mentor to her." He added: "We realized when we got deeper into Beckett's mother's murder mythology that somebody had to be protecting Beckett from herself when she was looking into this, so it made sense that the captain was involved."
Obviously, we're peeved our beloved captain was so ... shady. But then we remember how good he's actually been to Beckett over the years and we get a little misty-eyed. We wonder: What will life be like for her — and all of the 12th precinct — without him?
Marlowe said that very question is a hot storyline they'll explore next season. Plus, he let it be known that a new, possibly less empathetic captain could mean probs for the Caskett 'ship.
"We think it's interesting to grow Beckett and Castle by having somebody who may not look as favorably on Beckett as the Captain did or may not look as favorably on the Castle-Beckett relationship," he said.
Now, let's talk about that cliffhanger. And what a cliffhanger it was! We're used to sitting on the edges of our seats during Castle, but those final moments of last night's ep were just ... WOW. So we're obviously very curious: Did Beckett, in her near-death state, hear Castle drop the L-bomb? Marlowe confirmed that she did. Squee!
"I think in that moment she does. I know exactly how I'm dealing with it next season, but it would be unfair to the experience of the audience to tell them right now," he said. So yeah, as always, don't expect an immediate resolution.
"I'm sure some of [the fans] will feel like I've skirted the issue initially and then come to realize that I've dealt with it in an interesting character way," Marlowe explained. "The questions are going to be answered."
In fact, Marlowe revealed that Season 4 will focus a lot on a "real push and pull between Beckett and Castle" — not necessarily directly because of Castle's "I love you," but because Beckett wants to explore the new "mystery man" involved in her mom's case. But Castle feels more responsible for her well-being after his confession. Yeah. Once you've used the L-word, all bets are off. You're hooked.
In the end, Castle will end up in a similar place to the Captain — but we don't mean six feet under. "[Castle'll] end up with a little more information than she has, and he can't be honest with her about it," Marlowe said. Yep. Sounds familiar! He adds: "It's going to cause a complexity in their relationship that's going to be interesting."
OK, Castle lovers. Only four months to go...

Some popular, anti-inflammatory COX-2 drugs have dangerous adverse side effects
There are many drugs available that are designed to alleviate pain and inflammation. These include both over-the-counter and prescription drugs. Some of these drugs are expertly marketed, however the average person does not really know exactly how they work and the potential side effects they may produce. COX-2 refers to a class of pharmaceutical drugs that was developed to combat pain and inflammation. They are a form of non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID).
Unfortunately, some of these drugs produce very dangerous side effects. In fact, one of these drugs, Rofecoxib, also known as Vioxx, was taken off the market due to demonstrated correlations with adverse side effects. Consumers should be aware of the ill side effects that COX-2 drugs can produce and consider ways to alleviate pain naturally. Many of the negative side effects that COX-2 drugs can produce can be avoided by taking all-natural systemic enzyme supplements.
Top 4 dangerous side effects systemic enzyme supplements can help you avoid:
Alleviate pain naturally and avoid the dangerous side effects of COX-2 drugs with systemic enzyme supplements
Remember that some COX-2 drugs have been linked to potentially fatal side effects, including heart attacks, strokes, thrombosis and renal failure. Although pain and inflammation are quite uncomfortable, you do not want to generate a more significant problem when treating them. Systemic enzyme supplements provide a natural alternative to pharmaceutical drugs and are not linked with dangerous side effects.
Systemic proteolytic enzymes, such as those found in products like DailyZyme or Exclzyme, are nature's non-toxic way to control inflammation. They eat away at fiber build-up in the body, preventing fibrosis. Fibrosis can cause blood clots, which may lead to a heart attack or stroke, as well as organ dysfunction. Systemic enzymes are commonly used in Europe and Japan, and are recently gaining exposure in the United States. To get more information on the many benefits of systemic enzymes and how to alleviate pain naturally, visit www.qualityenzymes.com or call (866)-851-3230.

Fifty years ago, a man bought an island in the Indian Ocean and began reintroducing the indigenous giant tortoise species.
The BBC recently visited the island of a 86-year-old Yorkshire man, Brendon Grimshaw.
He has lived without human company for many years on the island that he originally purchased for £8000.
However, he shares the island with a bunch of animals, and 120 giant tortoises. It's one of the world's smallest national parks.
The BBC's Simon Reeve went to visit him, and called him "An 86-year-old Robinson Crusoe." He told the BBC that he has planted 16,000 trees on the island–that there were only four trees when he moved.
The property, which resembles paradise, is considered to be worth millions now. Grimshaw, however, refuses to sell, saying the only reason someone would want to buy it would be to put a hotel there.

Stress can be an overwhelming feeling. Whether it's an instance of road rage or getting yelled at by the office ogre, everyone experiences those moments where you feel weighed down by worry. Rather than feeling like a giant walrus is sitting on your chest, enjoy today's burden-banishing Groupon: a full-body Thai oil massage, including a foot massage at Siam 2 Thai Spa.
With their enthusiastic and highly trained therapists, a trip to Siam 2 Thai Spa is like coming home after a long day of work only to be greeted by a group of friends who announce they're dying to give you a massage. Because that rarely happens, today's Groupon is sending you to the little haven of harmony otherwise known as Siam 2 Thai Spa for an amazing one-hour traditional Thai massage session where you'll be pampered till you're cooing like a peanut-fed pigeon.
Lie back and allow the professional therapists to tend to those tensed-up tendons with a warm, deep, muscle-melting Thai massage. A traditional Thai massage is a combination of acupressure and gentle stretching, a practice that manipulates the energy lines in order to diminish tension, stimulate metabolism and create a feeling of wellbeing and vitality. Unlike some other massages that leave you feeling like a deflated party balloon, the Thai massage leaves you refreshed and energised. Next, feed your feet to a hearty meal of deep relaxation with a deliciously divine foot massage. Also meant to open the energy channels, the use of massage and reflexology is effective in detoxing, improving circulation and promoting clarity of mind. Banish that beastly stress walrus and experience true relaxation with Siam 2 Thai Spa and todays 'must-knead' deal.
Full-body fact: Before massages were considered to be the best stress-reliever, a bohemian in Californian used to sell stress-relieving voodoo spells enveloped in candy wrappers under the local boardwalk.
