The 'My Menu' feature on the EOS 5D Mark II allows you to produce a custom menu made up of any of the cameras menu options (including custom functions) which means that previously buried but useful options such as Mirror lockup can now be brought to a top level menu. The menu can even be arranged so that the options appear in the sequence you find most logical.

In this course, Adobe Photoshop experts Tim Grey and Olaf Giermann look at the new features available in Photoshop CS6 and show you how to incorporate them into your workflow. They take you on a tour of the interface, which has a new look and different controls in some of the panels, and introduce you to all the new features in areas like adjustments, image cleanup, creative effects, text and graphics, video, and 3D.
The Crop tool has been significantly overhauled in Photoshop CS6, making it, in my opinion, easier to work with and providing some additional flexibility for your workflow. Let's take a look at the significant changes to the Crop tool. I'll start off by choosing the Crop tool from the toolbox, and right away you might notice that there are some changes in terms how the Crop tool behaves. For one thing we now have an automatic Crop box. You don't need to start by drawing the cropbox on the image, it's there automatically. Also, the settings on the Options bar have been simplified and consolidated.
So now you have a single set of options. Previously you would have one set of options before you've drawn your crop, and a second set of options after you had drawn the crop. So that for example, You couldn't really adjust the aspect ratio very easily while you're in the middle of the working on a crop. But I think most dramatically is just the overall behavior of the Crop tool. As I drag one of the corner of the crop box inward you'll notice that things are adjusting somewhat automatically. If I dragged outside the image to rotate, you'll really see a big change here... Now, the image rotates.
So you're getting a good preview of what the final result is actually going to look like. That makes it much easier, in my opinion, to work with the Crop tool. It's simply easier to anticipate what the final result is going to look like. We can also now straighten automatically directly within the Crop tool. We can simply choose the Straighten tool from the Options bar and then click and drag across a straight line a horizon or a building for example. And then when we release the mouse the rotation of the crop will be adjusted automatically so that, that line is now straight.
We can still adjust the view option, but we have some additional options available here. In addition to rule of 3rds, and grid, we have a diagonal option, so that you can crop with respect to the diagonal lines. We also have the triangle option. As well as the golden ratio and the golden spiral cropping options. In addition you can choose whether you want to automatically show the overlay. In other words only when you're adjusting the crop to always show the overlay or to never show the overlay if you prefer not to see it. We also have options to cycle through all of the overlays.
You can press the letter O key for example, to cycle through the various overlay options. And you can also cycle through the orientation of the overlay. The keyboard shortcut for that is Shift+O, and you can see that now, my golden spiral has been adjusted in terms of its overall orientation. Generally speaking though, I work with the rule of thirds option, so I'll leave that set as my cropping display. There are also some additional options for the Crop tool. I'll click on the Settings Popup and you'll see we have a used classic mode check box. So if you prefer the previous behavior of the Crop tool, you don't want to take advantage of the new features.
You can simply turn on this Checkbox. We also have the option to automatically center the Preview so, as I adjust the Crop Box the center of the crop remains the center of my overall image display. So the image itself moves rather than having the Crop Box move around. We can also turn on an option to show the cropped area, or highlight the cropped area. So by default you can see that I have the show cropped area check box turned on. If I turn this option off, then my preview will simply reflect the final image. I personally prefer to be able to see what I'm cropping out of the image.
So that I can better make decisions, on how I might want to Fine tune the crop, so I'll turn that check box back on. And as before, we can adjust the crop shield, so I can turn the crop shield off or on. This is the shading around the outside of the crop box so that we can still see to some extent the area that's being cropped. The color can be adjusted. You can either match the canvas, the background area here, dark grey in my case or you can choose a custom color if you prefer. And as always, you can adjust the opacity of that shield. There's also an option to automatically adjust the opacity based on the image itself.
So that in darker areas for example, the opacity will be reduced, so that you can see a little more detail in the image. And of course if you want to adjust the aspect ratio of the crop, you can do that as well. Over at the left of the Options bar, you'll see that I have the original ratio option set. Which means I want to maintain the original aspect ratio of the photo. No matter where I drag the crop box around I can only get that original aspect ratio. I can flip it, do a horizontal image, or keep it vertical. But I can't change the shape. For example I can't get a square crop with this setting. I can also work unconstrained so that I can create a crop of any shape that I'd like.
Or I can choose from some common aspect ratios. For example one to one, which is a square image, or four to three, five to seven, et cetera. I also have an option to rotate the crop box, and if I really want to get particular, I can adjust the size and resolution. I can plug in specific values for width, height and the pixel per inch resolution for the image. If I'd like, I can also save that as a crop preset. So for example if I wanted an 8 by 10 at 300 pixels per inch. I could create that as an option and then save it as one of my presets on the popup.
I'll go ahead and click Cancel in this case though. One other option that I'm really exited about for the Crop tool is the Delete Crop Pixels option. And the reason I'm exited is that this option is turned off by default. The default behavior of the Crop tool in Photoshop Is now non destructive. If I turn on the delete cropped pixels option then when I apply my crop, the pixels outside the image will be deleted. This option had been available in previous versions of Photoshop as the Delete versus Hide option. But in order to access the hide option you had to first convert your background image layer into a normal layer.
Now you don't have to worry about that step. I'll leave the Delete Cropped Pixels option turned off, and I'll refine my crop just a little bit here. Let's call that good enough for now. And with that Delete Cropped Pixels option turned off, I'll go ahead and apply my crop, clicking the Commit button on the Options bar. So now I have the image cropped. But the pixels that were cropped out were not deleted. They've simply been hidden from view. I can get them back at any time by simply choosing Image, and then Reveal All from the menu. Notice, that the rotation has still been applied, but now I can get back to all of those original pixels if I need to.
So as you can see, the changes to the crop tool are rather significant. It's still the same basic crop tool that allows you to crop and rotate an image. I think it's a little bit easier to work with and it now has a default behavior that protects your pixels from being cropped. All in all, some very nice changes for a tool that's been around for quite a while.

Le Dîner à San Francisco 2015
- Food & Drink
- San Francisco
Money and Meaning - Contemplative Practices, Yoga, and Mission-Driven Entrepreneurship
Unnamed Organizer
Tuesday, February 12, 2013 from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM (PST)
About the class
- How do yoga, meditation, and contemplative practices relate to impact investing and mission-driven entrepreneurship?
- What are some simple and effective techniques that individuals can use on a day-to-day basis to improve clarity, health, and mental focus?
- How do spiritual practices inform the work we are doing to address social and environmental challenges?
The search for meaning and higher purpose infuse the world of social entrepreneurship, mission-driven organizations, and impact investing. In many cases it is a fundamental driver for individuals and organizations working to make the world a better place. However, spirituality is typically not addressed in professional work environments, even though it may be at the core of our work.
Yoga, meditation, and contemplative practices can promote higher consciousness, greater connection with yourself and those around you, increased compassion and empathy. They also provide very practical tools for stress reduction, work-life balance, personal productivity, and better health in general. Theses skills empower individuals and organizations to achieve their impact, collaborate in a more effective manner, and approach their mission from a new perspective.
This workshop will view mission-driven entrepreneurship from the lens of contemplative traditions, provide a forum for discussing how it manifests in our work, and facilitate a discussion on the topic of spirituality and impact. It will also provide basic practices for meditation and pranayama (breathwork) that individuals can use as part of a daily practice.

How To Make a Fruit Tart
You're just a few steps away from serving this fruit tart on your holiday table. Simply wrap warm pears and bourbon-laced fruits in a golden brown crust.
The bourbon-soaked fruits and bold flavors in this rustic pie make it an adults-only dessert. Splurge for a premium brandy or bourbon—it's worth it.
Don't worry if juices from the fruit run toward the edges of the crust. Just start folding, and tuck all that goodness inside.
Fold the edges of the crust up and over the fruit mixture, loosely shaping pleats and turning the parchment paper as you go.
Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with large golden crystals of Demerara sugar or coarse sparkling sugar.

This thing is great! I'm a big toast eater, and I hate having to double back to the toaster for my second helping of toast. That's why its such a relief to have the Black & Deckers 4-slice toaster's innovative four-slot design, and the independent controls that allow you a lot more freedom of action. Like to mix it up, with crispy rye but more lightly-toasted wheat toast? Use the Black & Decker 4-slice toaster's independent controls to get a wide range of toast possibilities. Plus, the sturdy design means a lifetime of improved breakfast dining experiences! For lots of great toast, go B & D 4-slice! O. Berdick

My T4808 4 slice toaster hasn't lived up to the Black and Decker reputation. My husband purchased it for Christmas almost 3 years ago and we've put up with it all this time. It will only toast 2 slices because the other half of the toaster has not worked. The dial is broken (came that way) and has never toasted the bread. I've tried to like it but I just can't. I guess I don't expect you to compensate us for the toaster. I just wanted you to know how dissatisfied we are. We are going to replace it. He also purchased a Power Pro 250 watt electric hand mixer for me when he bought the toaster. Unfortunately it has only one speed. Turbo. I've never gone above speed #1 because #1 has the spray and velocity that rival a jet engine! I try not to use it because it makes such a mess. I'd like to replace this, too, as I do like a hand mixer, just not this one. I think your tools are the greatest. Maybe you should stick with those. Sincerely, Susan Deane

great toaster
By bagellover
from Stone Ridge, NY
I have had this model toaster for several years now. I love it! The bagel mode is great! I just hated the other toaster I had that always made the outside of the bagel way too crispy just to toast the cut side. The bagel mode only toasts the inside cut part of the bagel.
It works well!

Not toasting enough
By bayoust
from Laval,Qc
1500 watts for 4 toasts is not enough.. If you use brown bread,you have to put the bread 2 times to have well cook toast
Great Toaster, just lost 3 rubber feet :(
By Peachy
from Virginia
Our town manager bought this toaster for a breakfast meeting for toasting the bagels. It works perfectly! The regular toast setting does as well. We sometimes buy bread not sliced and slice as we want toast, wide slots so necessary! Our only problem is (somehow?) we have lost three of the four rubber feet which keep it from sliding around the counter .Ours spins now. LOL. Black &Decker, can I get a set of the rubber feet replacements??!! Please??? Really. Great product here, just watch your feet! LOL!
Toaster.... what a joke

This toaster took me over six minutes to toast waffles and they still weren't done. I had a much cheaper 2 slice toaster that would have had six waffles done in that time........ I specifically looked for this site to warn anyone lookinfg for a toaster.... DO NOT BUY
This product is hard to use
By krystalballs
from Tucson, AZ
If you have children this may not be the proper product. Most children enjoy poptarts and with this toaster you need to place them in with care or they fall in and get stuck causing them to burn. The toaster also tends to dry out bread very badly before it actually toasts it.

By George
from Ontario, Canada
I purchased a B@D 4 slice toaster just under a year ago It is the worst toaster I have ever had. It takes for ever to toast and the bread is usually dried out. If you are having bacon and eggs you start the toast when bacon is half cooked and when the bacon is cooked you fry eggs then maybe the bread will be toasted. Now one half of the 4 slice is not working so now i can get a different make of toaster. I would not recommend this to anyone.

ARM announced a new CPU, GPU, and interconnect today — all products that will form the backbone of its high-performance hardware in 2016 and beyond. The new chip is a 64-bit processor with an expected clock speed of 3GHz or higher built on TSMC's 16nm FF+ process.
Snapdragon 810: Can big.LITTLE keep the dream alive while Qualcomm works on Krait's successor? December 16, 2014 at 2:32 pm
In the lead-up to CES 2015, Qualcomm has revealed a few more details about its upcoming Snapdragon 810 SoC — the company's first flagship 64-bit chip, which will most likely power the top Android devices released in the first half of 2015. The Snapdragon 810 is an interesting chip for a number of reasons, but most notably it's first flagship Snapdragon S4/800 chip to not feature Qualcomm's own Krait CPU cores. Where is your own in-house 64-bit CPU core, Qualcomm?
TSMC announces first 16nm FinFET results, unveils 10nm roadmap October 2, 2014 at 2:44 pm
TSMC has made a series of aggressive announcements around its next-generation technology — not only has it produced a Cortex-A57 CPU on 16nm FinFET, it's beginning its earliest work on 10nm.
TSMC announces its first 16nm FinFET networking chip: 32-core ARM Cortex-A57 September 26, 2014 at 9:10 am
Yesterday, TSMC announced the first successful production of a 32-core ARM chip based on 16nm FinFET technology. According to the foundry, it collaborated with HiSilicon technologies to create the network processor, which marries a 16nm 32-core ARM Cortex-A57 with 28nm logic and I/O chips — this 16nm/28nm combination is produced using a technique TSMC calls CoWoS (Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate).
Intel confirms 14nm Broadwell shipping in time for the holidays May 19, 2014 at 3:37 pm
Intel's CEO has promised that 14nm chips are coming by the end of the year, but the 14nm upgrades are fairly modest. Will they be enough to close the gap with ARM-based hardware?
ARM says $20 smartphones coming this year, shows off 64-bit Cortex-A53 and A57 performance May 6, 2014 at 1:32 pm
At its rather exclusive ARM Tech Day 2014 in Austin, the British company has given us more details on the future of its mobile efforts — in specific, its upcoming Cortex-A53 and -A57 CPU cores. ARM also said that, after passing the the $60 mark last year, the cheapest Android phones will be just $20 "in the next few months." According to ARM, these cheap devices will cause the low- and mid-range smartphone and tablet markets to more than double over the next five years, resulting in almost 2.5 billion total mobile device shipments by 2018… and they'll (probably) all use ARM chips.
AMD's Project Skybridge: New ARM and x86 chips that are pin-compatible May 5, 2014 at 2:09 pm
At its Core Innovation Update press conference, AMD has outlined the future of its x86 and ARM efforts. The most notable announcement was the unveiling of Project Skybridge, which in 2015 will see new 20nm x86 and ARM SoCs that are pin-compatible with each other — that is, there'll be a single chipset/socket that can take either an ARM or x86 SoC, depending on what makes more sense. AMD also showed off its first, working 64-bit ARM server chip (Seattle), and slipped in a quick aside that it is indeed working on a new, from-scratch x86 core, with an expected release sometime around 2016.

GTX295 HDMI No signal
I just got an HDMI cable,
I connected to my monitor (Acer P243w)
But no picture.. then I connected with the DVI cable
went into the monitor settings, sat it to HDMI
then the screen went black, a msg came up "no signal"
screen went black agian and it switched to the DVI..
In the NVidia CP I cant choose the HDMI cable..:thumbdwn:
any suggestions?
Re: GTX295 HDMI No signal
The card is equipped with three connectors for display devices: two DVI-I ports and one HDMI.
The former two are connected to the Master GPU and can be used simultaneously in SLI mode whereas the latter is connected to the Slave GPU and can only be used when not in SLI mode. This odd solution actually negates the value of the dedicated HDMI port. For comparison, this port of the GeForce 9800 GX2 was connected to the Master GPU together with one DVI-I.
:bs: :lame: (soapbox)
What is the porpoise? (lee)
There has to be some kind of logical explanation. (omg)

Vanderkooi named OFBF director of state policy
Beth Vanderkooi will help the organization represent its members at the Ohio Statehouse and with others in state government.
Reporters, please visit our news room located in the Media and Publications section of this site.
Beth Vanderkooi will help the organization represent its members at the Ohio Statehouse and with others in state government.
For as long as Bob Vance can remember, Ohio Farm Bureau has been a part of his life. He grew up on a dairy farm
As Class VI of Ohio Farm Bureau Federations AgriPOWER Institute wrapped up, I couldnt help but think back to the first session when my peers and I outlined our personal goals for the program. The goals I listed in that July session included learning more about Ohio agriculture and networking with agricultural professionals across the state. I did not imagine in that beginning session just how much AgriPOWER Institute would help me meet those goals.
More and more young people are pursuing higher education degrees in agriculture. In turn, our industry is reaping the benefits of a workforce with diverse experience, higher levels of technological expertise and hands-on experience that will help us tackle agricultures next set of challenges. In this blog, OFBF Director of State Policy Brandon Kern discusses several programs preparing the next generation.
A few links to other organizations that can help landowners with questions, concerns and problems.
United States Department of Agricultures (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) announced at the beginning of October that it will be collecting chemical usage data from soybean and wheat growers in 26 states, including Ohio.
After farmers raised concerns about the USDAs initial proposal on a national identification system, the agency has offered a revised plan.
A Federal Order has been issued requiring pork producers, veterinarians and diagnostic labs to report presumptive or confirmed positive occurrences of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDv), Deltacoronavirus, (PDCoV) or other novel swine enteric coronaviruses. Also, USDAs APHIS has issued a conditional license to Harrisvaccines, Inc. of Ames, Iowa for a vaccine that may aid in the control of PEDv.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is issuing a new rule that it says will improve its ability to trace livestock and poultry when there is a disease event.
Farmers and ranchers who believe that the United States Department of Agriculture has improperly denied them farm loan benefits between 1981 and 2000 because they are Hispanic or because they are women may be eligible to apply for compensation.

In years past, you could score a free burrito on Halloween from Chipotle if you came in dressed like a burrito. Sadly, the free burrito train has stopped. This year you can instead get a burrito, bowl, salad or tacos for $2 after 6 p.m. -- if you dress up as a "horrifying processed food product."
This is not all bad -- the $2 goes to Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution, "a national movement to save America's health by changing the way America eats," with Chipotle donating up to $1 million from the Boorito 2010 promotion. Still, the beauty of dressing up like a burrito was that all you had to do was slap on a little foil. If you and a couple of friends went in on a roll together, that would bring your cost down even more.
The challenge now is how to dress like scary processed food for around $4 to keep from going in the hole, about the difference between the $2 you'll be paying and the price of a full-cost burrito. The chicken nugget outfit Jamie Oliver sports in the Boorito 2010 video doesn't look cheap. Plus, I keep wanting him to sing, "Bring it on down to Nuggetville!"
This is all a moot point if you're going to enter the Boorito costume contest and you think you've got a fairly good shot at winning the $2,500 grand prize. Or you could try wrapping yourself in foil anyway and say you come from a less healthy place that also wraps their food like that. It's not like Chipotle owns the trademark on foil.
But look, just saying: A chicken nugget isn't that scary. Unless maybe it's trying to eat YOU. OK, that sounds a little freaky.
So, processed foods: bad. Portion control: hey, not so fast. If Chipotle is this into Oliver's Food Revolution, you'd think the chain might also start coming around to the idea of a smaller burrito. One of the regular behemoths can come pretty close to 1,000 calories, depending on how big a dollop of sour cream you get.
I'm not saying take the big burrito away, but give us a choice. For those of us who love the tortilla, compromising and getting the bowl is a decision made with much reluctance. And I can't help but feeling like a sucker when I pay you not to give me a tortilla.
The time has come, Chipotle. There's not always someone around to split a burrito with, and you're not at your best reheated.

Supporting the Health of the Public We Serve
Natalie Pawlenko is being honored as a Champion of Change for helping Americans live healthier lives, reduce disease and contribute to lowering health care costs by focusing communities on public health and prevention.
Sometime in my early teens, I had an epiphany: all our actions – even those we think to be most private - contribute to the life around us. And that we have a choice to either contribute positively to an upward spiral of human life, or to its antithesis. I chose the former.
The past thirty years of my life have been an ongoing search for ways in which to continuously contribute to the community. As a child of immigrants fleeing from WW II in Ukraine, there was frequently a sense of appreciation for the privilege of having been born in the United States, and a desire to "give back". However, not until the Chernobyl nuclear disaster of 1986 did I focus on the health of the public, here and elsewhere in the world.
Public health is our invisible first line of defense. It is everywhere: from childhood immunizations, to clean drinking water, to food inspections and clean air. It is complex, like newborn screening and disease outbreak monitoring. It is also as simple as you and me washing our hands frequently and sneezing into our shirt-sleeves. It is pervasive, and as history has shown, it can be profoundly transformative.
After working in Canada for many years and witnessing the critical role played by public health in the containment of the SARS outbreak there, I returned to New Jersey and joined the New Jersey Department of Health, Office of Local Public Health. I have an abiding interest in public health informatics and have spearheaded the reform of the public health reporting system in New Jersey.
And over the course of the past nine years, I have gotten to know the many men and women, public health professionals whose daily work in their local communities keep our state healthy and safe. Their commitment inspires me greatly and in my various roles here at the State Health Department, I have endeavored to support them in doing their vital work more effectively and efficiently and with less unnecessary burden.
Whether it is championing quality improvement training or performance evaluation audits, process management or leadership coaching, accreditation preparation or informatics reform, my team and I continuously focus on being 'ruthlessly practical'. And in the fast paced environment that is the East Coast, we ground our work in collaboration, mutual respect and an awareness that everything we do contributes to the health of the public we serve.
With funding from the Affordable Care Act's Prevention and Public Health Fund, the state of New Jersey has reduced the lag time between testing and reporting influenza results to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from 2-to-3 weeks down to 2-to-3 days. With more timely information, local health departments are better prepared to address emerging health issues and prevent future issues.
Natalie Pawlenko is the Director of the Office of Local Public Health for the New Jersey Department of Health where she is leading a statewide effort to streamline and coordinate public health data collection and analysis to improve public health prevention and response.

I bought some Efke 25 and 100 in 120 roll film and have been using it over the past couple of months. It seems everyone else loves this film and I have seen beautiful examples of what others have done with. I do not seem to be having the same the experience. Even in the 25 I have very visible grain in 8 x 8 enlargements. With the 25 I rated it at 25. I developed it in Rodinal 1:100 for 18 minutes at 21 degrees C. As far as grain goes it is better looking grain than other films, but 400 speed Tmax and Tri-X that I have shot during the same sessions under the same conditions exhibit MUCH less grain.
The one exception is the time that I accidently underexposed it by 4 stops and developed it 1:100 for 20 minutes. The negs were so thin they made Kate Moss look obese, but they scanned pretty well. Am I taking the wrong approach in my development. I garnered my times from the responses I received from a thread I posted when I first got the film.
Generally I am shooting outside either under overcast skies or in the shade. Contrast has not been a problem, more a lack of contrast. I will try to post some examples, but I never could get the file size right when I tried it the other day. I will see what I can work out tonight.
One factor may be that I am scanning the negs and printing the D-word way. It is for school and we are printing that way this semester and I HATE it! I am going to try to get in the darkroom this week and see how they look in there, but I don't know what difference it will make.
Any advice you guys might have would be appreciated. I know this film is capable of amazing results, I just need to figure out how to obtain them.
Thanks in advance--I know someone will have the answer for me!

Russia's Sberbank and its subsidiary Sberbank Leasing have agreed to purchase 12 Boeing 737-800s to be operated by Transaero on an operational lease.
The deal is worth more than $1 billion at list prices, says Boeing.

Volunteering is a great way to support the Soil Association. We value the time that volunteers give to our organisation, whether long-term, short-term or at events, and the skills and commitment that they bring to the organisation. Whether you want to meet new people, gain experience, or develop your skills, volunteering is a great way to make a difference too.
We welcome volunteers in our offices in Bristol and Edinburgh and occasionally have activities taking place across the UK.
To register your interest in volunteering please send us your CV along with a covering letter stating what area of work you are interested in and/or what department you would like to work for to email@example.com. Once received, we will keep hold of your details and inform you of any opportunities which may arise. We aim to place people according to their skills, experience, interests and availability. The more information you provide us in your covering letter, the greater the likelihood of us being able to find an appropriate way to use your skills.
Some times of year are busier than others, for example Organic September, so do keep an eye out for opportunities throughout the year. Please take a look at the roles and projects advertised on our website to find areas that match your skills and interests.
We are very fortunate to receive a high level of interest for volunteering in our office, but with only limited opportunities available, this unfortunately means it is not always possible to place everyone that applies.
There are lots of other ways to get involved with our work:

I don't think I've ever mentioned it here on the blog, but I'm one of those gluten-intolerant people who suffers from dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), which causes an itchy, blistering rash in response to gluten intake. I've had an especially difficult time with my scalp and have spent years searching for a shampoo that doesn't irritate my skin.
I know what you're thinking – and yes, I've tried many, many homemade recipes and even going shampoo free, but I just haven't found the right combination of clean, shiny and manageable.
Then Along Came thinksport
I've been challenging my friend Kevin, founder of thinksport, to put his scientific brain to the task and help solve my quandary. By George, I think he's done it! He sent me his new concoctions about a month ago and I've been using them exclusively since then without a single flare up.
I love the way my hair looks and feels! The light scent isn't overpowering like artificial fragrances can be, but leaves a fresh, clean smell that reminds me of tropical mango with a touch of summer.
The thinksport team is serious about honesty in labeling, so it's a relief to know that there are no mystery chemicals waiting to pounce on my sensitive scalp.
And for those of you who are wondering: yes, it's made without gluten.
Guy Tested and Mother Approved
It even works for all of the guys in my house! This is a BIG deal for us, because the minute I show up with "yet another gross smelling natural shampoo" it usually gets ejected from the shower after the first round. But not this one!
When I asked the boys whether they liked it, they gave that familiar non-committal shrug which is code for, "I may like it, but I'm not telling you because you'll take my regular shampoo away." So I just kept a stealthy eye on the bottle and saw that they were actually using it. Then one day last week my 15 year old son, Keagan, came bouncing out of the shower and said,
Hey mom, feel how soft my hair is. That new thinksport stuff is really awesome!
And thus, history was made in the Voorhies household. My guys FINALLY use non-toxic haircare!

Monitoring of past and present status or trends in quantity and quality of a resource has often proven essential in making decisions regarding the management of that resource. As a very familiar example, a storeowner makes ordering decisions based on monitoring of inventory, and on factors such as past experience with consumer behavior, upcoming holidays, and time for the delivery of goods. Management abilities and predictive power for anticipating future needs improve with experience (or as data accumulate). Over time, changes in consumer preferences, and changes associated with technological advances in the delivery systems affect how storeowners manage their inventories. Models used to forecast climate, weather, or performance of stocks, are based on the sophisticated use of data on key parameters accumulated over time. Models improve as data series become longer, however the intrinsic degrees of uncertainty in these systems will never allow perfect predictions so monitoring will always be needed. In the economic world, productivity of workers, unemployment rates, stock indices, mortgage rates, and other variables are monitored and this information is used to predict and manage the local, regional, national and international economy. In contrast, we do not have reliable statistics or long-term monitoring indicators for most of the nations' biological resources (NRC 2000a).
The charge to this committee as it pertains to environmental monitoring is to (1) evaluate the need for and approaches to environmental monitoring and validation processes and, if deemed necessary, to include recommendations for postcommercialization monitoring of transgenic plants and (2) provide guidance on the assessment of non-target effects, appropriate tests for environmental evaluation, and assessments of cumulative effects on agricultural and nonagricultural environments for transgenic plants.
Precommercial risk analysis has several inherent weaknesses. In general, small-scale precommercialization field experiments are not sensitive enough to detect anything but large effects. For any such experiment there will be some limit to what can be detected, and this limit will be rather high because the natural variability from one experimental replication to another is large. For example, in estimating the yield of a corn variety—a commercially important agronomic trait—it is necessary to run several hundred-yield trials to detect significant increases in yield. In the U.S. Corn Belt, corn yields may be greater than 150 bushels per acre. A variety that yields five additional bushels per acre is a significantly more

Middlemarch: Victorian Classic Transforms Town Time Forgot
Josephine Balmer London Observer Service, St Louis Post-Dispatch (MO)
IN MANY WAYS, Stamford is Middlemarch. Approach from the south and the town rises up from the Welland meadows like a flawless film set - six medieval spires and a grid of honeyed streets, split by secret passageways and cobbled lanes.
Scouts from the British Broadcasting Corp., scouring central England for a suitable location to film the television adaption of George Eliot's novel, couldn't believe their luck. Nor could Stamford.
The first episode was watched by more than five million people in Britain - BBC2's highest-ever audience for a drama series. (Made in conjuction with WGBH-TV in Boston, the program is airing on PBS's "Masterpiece Theater," seen in St. Louis at 9 p.m. Sundays through May 15 on KETC, Channel 9.)
"When we were chosen," says Derek Gladman, president of the Stamford Tourist Association, "everyone was thrilled to think Stamford was the nearest thing they got to George Eliot's town."
Stamford even resembles prints of 1830s Coventry, Eliot's model for the town of Middlemarch. Like its fictional counterpart, Stamford is grappling with growth and change.
But ironically, where the residents of Middlemarch were concerned with the coming of the railways, increasing industrialization and the building of their new hospital, Stamford is stirred by the loss of its train service, the decline in industry and the reduction of hospital services.
"Local doctors and people have been fighting for a long time to prevent things running down," says Dr. Stephen Reiss of the Sheepmarket surgery in the town center. Like Tertius Lydgate, Middlemarch's devoted surgeon, Reiss is a young newcomer to the town. "Both the children's ward and maternity unit have closed in the past five years," says Reiss.
John Smith, curator of the Stamford Museum, points out that Stamford's hospital was built in 1828, around the same time as the New Fever Hospital in Middlemarch.
Smith's knowledge of the town makes him Stamford's nearest equivalent to the Rev. Edward Casaubon, Middlemarch's most famous scholar. But Casaubon's congregation was loath to attend his sermons, while Smith's two forthcoming lectures on Stamford and Middlemarch are a sellout.
The interest is everywhere. The town's local bookshop reports sales of the novel - now with Stamford gracing its cover - have risen from one or two a year to 220 since filming last summer. The library has had to bus in copies from Skegness and Louth in the north of England to cope with demand. …

I'm not an expert, but I regularly use three De-Vere enlargers. So in response to your questions:
1. Yes, I thought so.
2. Glass leads to better overall sharpness, but there's more spotting to do. I use glass.
3. They are used without metal masks.
4. I don't know anyting about Viponel timers. De-Vere timers are simple and work very well. (I have two spare ones.) The best timer, imho, is an RH Designs Stop Clock Pro, which is what I use with my De-Veres.

Cinco Jotas Ibérico de Bellota Hams
Cinco Jotas (5J) is one of the most storied hams in the world. Among the elite brands of Spain's Jamón Ibérico de Bellota, 5J comes from only pure breed Ibérico pigs raised in ideal free range conditions. Every one of these hams and paletas is made from top quality acorn-fed pork, earning the official designation of Bellota (Spanish for acorn). Cinco Jotas is based in the famous jamón town of Jabugo, a word synonymous with the very best ham in the world.
