Dispelling a Photography Myth [5 Travel-Free Ways to Find the Photo-Worthy]
By Chase on September 20, 2012
stunning image
holly says:
I love the ideas! Will have to apply it partially to another town as the one I live in only has two roads leading out in a 6 block town! Definitely makes me think! !
Karl Baker says:
Very true – Its easy to think that exotic location = better shoot, but just take a look at what you have on your own doorstep in your own country.. its all unique, especially to outsiders.. document your own backyard ! who knows what you take for granted that others do not : )
Rabi says:
I totally agree with this post. However, I think that using Bangladesh is a tough example since the American audience of this blog sees it as exotic. To me, one of the best examples of this concept is David Weatherwax, a photojournalist at the Jasper Herald in Indiana who routinely wins national awards for work done entirely within the borders of quiet Dubois County.
There are stories everywhere. When you travel, everything is new and exciting. Your photos might seem better than the ones you take at home, but they probably aren't. I fall into this trap as much as anyone.

"I also believe that Apple will need to open up more services to the developers, such as Siri, to generate additional innovation."
k4d0557e says:
I'd command you to remain, health professional, but there wouldn't be enough for five. So Sarkoja only yielded most of us an offensive look and quit to hatch up deviltries against most of us.
rowerowyswiat.webs.com says:
I was very happy to seek out this web-site.I needed to thanks in your time for this wonderful read!! I definitely having fun with every little bit of it and I have you bookmarked to take a look at new stuff you blog post.
Hi there very cool blog!! Guy .. Beautiful .. Wonderful .
I'll bookmark your blog and take the feeds also? I am happy to seek out a lot of useful info right here within the publish, we'd like develop more strategies on this regard, thanks for sharing.
Erik says:
Amazing pictures! Every picture have a story. Thanks for sharing.
Bill Vandermolen says:
Why would bidders want the public in with them?
Alex Harris says:
Wow. Those child labour pics show a horrible side of things. You know it happens, but I'd hate to imagine my two little guys in the same situation. Brings a lump to your throat.
Beg Ari says:
"a guy who is lucky enough to have interesting stuff happen in his backyard…." it's documentary work…. Documenting the suffering of 'his people' in a place where he calls home. Lucky is not the word I would choose.
faisal says:
His photos tell a story.
Tim Roper says:
It does take more effort at home, but it is a good idea in general to take time to appreciate where you are, and share it with others if you're an artist. I mean, everyone knows how beautiful the Golden Gate Bridge is, right? Well, try telling that to people stuck in traffic on it, late for work, having to pay the toll every day. Then it's just another damn bridge. But taking the time as a photographer to put all that aside and notice and capture its beauty again may just help others feel the same way about where they live. And perhaps that's a little more valuable than heading to Bangladesh (although that's good, too).
Titus-Armand says:
I don't mean to be an ass, but this is kind of meaningless since the guy is already living in a place dripping with "meaning and texture. The dark alleys, the sleeping pilgrims riding the tops of trains, the child laborers." I don't see any child laborers or pilgrims riding the tops of trains where I live.
Maybe the point would have been better illustrated if you had chosen a photog living in a seemingly boring, uninteresting place. Right now, all I see a guy who's lucky enough to have interesting stuff happen in his backyard. Not all of us have that.
jbstrick says:
It is only meaningless to those who can not see. Every town, village and city has an unknown story begging to be told. Thank you Chase, for sharing.
Naomi says:
The opposite side though of living somewhere dripping with meaning and texture (I just left India after living there for three years) is that soon after arriving and getting all of that color, beauty and striking photo opps, you turn a blind eye to it because it too gets weary, tired and old. I thought the article and advise was brilliant.
Titus-Armand says:
My point is that not all unknown stories are exciting, interesting, or worth telling. The unknown stories of his backyard > the unknown stories of your backyard. If you disagree, feel free to provide photographic evidence that proves me wrong.
MJ says:
Looking at his work, I am pretty sure he would take amazing picture wherever you put him….. even in your backyard!
Troy Mclaughlin says:
Does the sun set and rise where you live?
Do people live where you live ?
Are there trees?
Flowers ?
Cars ,streets ,bridges ?
Is there life where you live?
If so it's not a boring uninspired place
It's how you view life and not where you live.
Anyone can luck into a great photograph. Great photographers make the the boring uninspired into inspiring beautiful works of art. It's work sometimes very hard work but its worth the journey. Look at the work of JULIA MARGARET CAMERON she made some of the most influential portraits of the early 19th century. She created her works in a chicken coop and used a coal bin for a darkroom. You can only limit you it's not where you live. Go out and create its there just open your eyes.
Todd says:
While I'm no where near being a great or even good photographer, one thing I learned from one of the greats, Rick Sammon, is "don't take a photograph, MAKE a photograph." It kind of goes along with what you are saying above. Great photos are all around, we just have to be observant enough and have the balls to approach people and ask, or to arrange a subject so it is more striking. Everyone may have different feelings about this but in the end, those viewing the image have no clue what went into making the photograph. For all we know, some of the above photos may have been choreographed.
Mick Ryan says:
Titus, you must live in utopia or else you walk around with your eyes shut without imagination. Seeing a photo op is the real talent
Jeremy says:
I see your point, but that doesn't mean that where you or I live can't be dripping with meaning and texture. For him [GMB Akash] his backyard is exoptic to us. Maybe where you live is exotic to Akash? What Chase is getting at is that we tend to overlook stuff that is always around us.
This reminds me of an assignment in an intro to photography class that I needed for my degree program (an art class was a requirement). And yes – that class launched my love of photography BTW. Anyway, the assignment was to pick a space somewhere in my neighborhood that was no bigger than about a basketball court and shoot a whole roll of film confined in that space. Once you have shot all the obvious subjects in your space, you are forced you to look closer, deeper at your surroundings for pictures. The instructor commented that the best pictures from that assignment are almost always the ones that you were forced to take. I know mine were.
Ashraful Alam says:
You know what? I don't want to be an ass, but you are an ass. You need to grow up before understanding the meaning of Photojournalism.
W says:
What the Hell?! I thought we had all but abolished child labor. Great photos, but there is a bigger story here.
Richard Storr says:
Good tips ! i'm traveling to turkey this week, hoping to get something more than just holiday snaps.

Name: Anif
A water castle built on a lake. It was built in the 16th century by the Archbishop of Salzburg. In 1803 Count Arco-Stepperg bought the property and enlarged it. The abdication of King Ludwig III von Bayem occurred here in 1918. The castle contains an extensive collection of Romanesque art and furniture.
Have you visited a castle?


text: Frostbytes Eyeshadow ($6.25 for 0.11 oz.) is described as a "striking metallic deep silver." It's a medium-dark silver with cool undertones and a frosted, metallic finish. Applied dry, it had a softer, almost warm-toned appearance, and then applied damp or over Pixie Epoxy, it was fully opaque and the finish became more metallic. This shade lasted for a full eight hours whether applied on the bare lid with a damp brush or over Pixie Epoxy. Urban Decay Shellshock (LE, $18.00) is lighter. Too Faced Jailbird (LE) is a touch lighter. Urban Decay Oz #2 (LE, $18.00) is similar. MAC Tundra (LE) is a cream product. MAC Evening Grey (LE, $21.00) is less metallic. MAC Silver Sleet (LE, $32.50) is cooler-toned. Estee Lauder Cyber Silver (LE, $24.00) is darker. See comparison swatches.

Hi, I am Judy and I live in Chicago (yes really in Chicago) with my husband Paul and our two rescue dogs Caleb, who kind of reminds us of Pluto (he is a bloodhound) and Claudine who is a Bluetick Coonhound.
I am not sure if my husband knew what he was getting into when we got married, but my love of Disney started when I seven and my family took a cross-country trip in a VW Bus from Chicago to LA and Disneyland! I got to go again when I graduated from 8thgrade, because my Uncle lived in southern California. As I did not have a lot of money back then the only thing I could really afford where a couple of small plates with Mickey Mouse on them. Then my Grandmother moved to Florida, not too far from Walt Disney World, and we were able to spend summers with her and we would go to Disney and I added to my plate collection. When we got married our first real vacation together and my husband's first ever plane ride and vacation not near his home, was to Walt Disney World, and so I now have him "hooked" on Disney too. We have more than those small plates, but it is also a mutual enjoyment of all things Disney. We have attended quite a few special events at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World and enjoy taking the tours that are offered at all the parks. I have helped quite a few people plan there Disney vacations and I am a member of a local moms group and have help quite a few of them too.
My husband is a paramedic for the City of Chicago and the people he works with know we go to Disney a few times a year, so he always says call my wife she will be happy to help you. I really enjoy helping people make their trips enjoyable and recently planned a family vacation including my youngest sister, her three youngest children, and my parents (my father has Parkinson's, which had to be added into the planning) and our youngest son and his wife. It was quite interesting to move a group that large around, oh yes I forgot our friends met us there with their 5 year old and mom.
One other thing I love to do is read about Walt Disney and the Company, there are many books about him and Disney and the background information just adds to the interest in all things Disney.

The "most hated man in America" Jesse James has forgiven himself for cheating on ex-wife Sandra Bullock.
Jesse earned himself a fun little nickname after he cheated on America's sweetheart with a tatted up fame hungry
stripper hooker. But now that he's engaged to Kat Von D and moved on with his life, he totally forgives himself for ruining a big chuck of Sandra's life.
Speaking on the Kyle and Jackie O Show on Australian station 2Day FM, Jesse said: "I never got one negative comment, not from anyone. The only people who said negative stuff to me were the paparazzi and they were being paid to.
"The media portrayed it as this huge negative thing but if anything, I got more support from everybody else, because, yes, I cheated on my wife but so do a lot of other people.
"Does that mean I'm the devil? Or that I'm Satan? I don't think so. I made a mistake and I'm sorry for it but I owned up to it. I didn't lie or do any kind of BS. I did it, I made a mistake and I owned up to it and took it like a man and took all the abuse for it, which nobody does."
When asked if he had forgiven himself, he replied: "Oh yeah. I'm cool."
Of course you forgive yourself, you're too selfish to understand the damage you did. And if getting engaged months after getting divorced wasn't bad enough, Jesse has been openly talking about the affair and how bad Sandra is in bed in his new book hoping to sell some extra copies. His new nickname should be "biggest douchey cheater in America."

Besides an enormous tree (that's like its own zone), an aggro meter, tons of dragons, a slayer system, and a collection system, EverQuest players will find a more robust and flexible broker system, over 3000 new tradeskill recipes, more than 1800 new spells, and a new item progression system. And that's really just the tip of the iceberg.
How many times have you been out and about with when you realize you needed to purchase something but there is not a store in sight? With modern technology, we can go access various mobile devices and purchase something to be delivered to our homes. Developers understand that EQ players can run into the same situation. Down in the deep bowels of some dungeon or hidden far away in some remote area, players may find themselves in need of items to continue their adventuring. That's where the new autonomous brokering system comes into play.
As reported previously, players will have the option to have brokered items delivered either to their mailboxes or directly into their bags. This will definitely be a boon to anyone who needs an item immediately but is nowhere near a mailbox. But that's not the only benefit. Not only does this souped up brokering system provide delivery flexibility to players, but it boosts the use of the brokering system as a whole.
Buyers aren't the only ones who benefit; sellers have plenty of reasons to rejoice, too. This new system encourages window shopping, which will most certainly result in more purchases. Imagine it: You're sitting out at a dungeon entrance, waiting on your group, so you just start window shopping to pass the time. And the selection of items will be much broader than previously experienced by EQ veterans because the game now supports offline selling. WOOO! That's right; a player no longer has to be logged in for her items to be listed on the broker. Permanent listings mean more items are available for buyers to buy when they want to buy. Buyers get what they want, and sellers can better move their merchandise... where is the downside in that?
The increase in the level cap to 100 necessitates the addition of new skills and abilities for those levels, and players will find a plethora of them. In fact, the game will have over 1800 new spells (ranks one, two, and three), over 550 AAs, and more than 3000 new crafting recipes. As expected in a game with the word "quest" in its name, players will have many more quests to work through -- over 110 of them. If players do just the quests in the expansions, you will level to 100. Completing just the collection quests will give players a full level.
Expanding the world
The SOE Live keynote touched on the Breeding Grounds (who won't love wall-to-wall dragons?), Befallen, and Shard's Landing, but those are only three of the nine new zones coming in the expansion. The devs explained how they wanted to involve older zones and areas in the expansion, like Eastern Wastes. And along with the new zones, there are 13 new raids for players to dive into and collect rewards from.
Among the folks getting their hands/paws/claws on falling fear shards for their power is a large and powerful dragon who uses it to basically make his own reality, upsetting the balance of power in the war between the dragons, the coldain, and giants.
Rain of Fear has many more systems and features coming to the game. Over 3,500 new items will be introduced to game, including items specifically designed for each class, armor that increases in stats when you move to another tier, and non-visible armor pieces that can be worn by anyone. These all-inclusive pieces allowing folks to stack whichever stats they want to regardless of class and customize their stats to match the needs of specific encounters. Keep an eye out for more information on these systems; we'll share more details as soon as they are available.
You can preorder Rain of Fear on the official site in either a standard or collector's digital version, each with special preorder bonuses. And for a limited time, the Collector's Edition will be only $59.99 US, a $30 savings from the original price.
What happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas, at least where SOE Live is concerned! Massively sent intrepid reporters MJ Guthrie and Karen Bryan to this year's SOE Live, from which they'll be transmitting all the best fan news on PlanetSide 2, EverQuest II, DC Universe Online, and the other MMOs on SOE's roster.

Plan is to start lifting sometime next week. I'm so estatic about it, I can't wait, though I don't wanna know how far I've dropped. I'd be suprised if I can still do 135lbs 5x on bench. Oh well, gotta start back somewhere.

Acclamation likely to opt for Canadian International over Breeders' Cup
POMONA, Calif. – California-bred and -based Acclamation will take his show on the road. Winner of three consecutive Grade 1's and currently the top male in California, Acclamation may skip the fall meet at Santa Anita and run for a $1.5 million purse Oct. 16 at Woodbine in the Grade 1 Canadian International. In all likelihood, that would preclude running in the Breeders' Cup.
Owner-breeder Buddy Johnston said this week Acclamation's early-October options at Santa Anita are "just a little quick to be ideal." Acclamation won the Pacific Classic on Aug. 28 at Del Mar, and Johnston prefers more time between starts than the Oct. 1 Grade 1 Goodwood on the main track, or Oct. 2 Grade 2 Clement L. Hirsch Turf Championship.
"The other option is go to the Canadian International and run Oct. 16," Johnston said. "If we do that, then the Breeders' Cup would be too soon."
The Breeders' Cup Turf and Classic will be run Nov. 5.
Johnston said this week he is leaning to race at Woodbine.
Acclamation had his first post-Del Mar workout Wednesday at Santa Anita for trainer Don Warren, five furlongs at Santa Anita in 59.80 seconds. Johnston said Acclamation "looks so good; he's still a maturing horse." If he runs at Woodbine, Acclamation could make one more local start this year in the Grade 1 Hollywood Turf Cup on Nov. 19.
"Then we'll lay out a schedule for next year, which may include Dubai," Johnston said.

With September right around the corner, THINK Global School is now in the preparation process for its tenth overall term and second in South America, as the faculty and students get ready to head to Buenos Aires, Argentina. Between September and December our students will familiarize themselves with Argentina's unique culture and history. Until then, here are 7 interesting facts about one of South America's most diverse countries.
- Probably the most well-known manifestation of Argentine culture, the latin dance and music known as tango originated in the slaughterhouse district of Buenos Aires at the end of the nineteenth century. Combining African rhythms with Argentine Milonga music (a fast-paced version of the polka), the sensual dance was initially looked upon with disdain by Argentina's high society. As affluent teens descended into the ghettos in search of adventure, the tango eventually found its way into the mainstream and the widespread popularity that it enjoys today.
- Animated film is most often associated with Walt Disney, but the first animated feature film came courtesy of Quirino Cristiani in 1917. His film, El Apóstol, consisted of 58,000 frames and had a run time of 70 minutes. A satire, El Apóstol focused on the corruption and immorality that was prevalent in Buenos Aires at the time.
- Argentina was the first country to adopt fingerprinting as a method of identification. In 1925, the small Argentinian town of Necochea was rocked by the gruesome stabbing of two children. With no witnesses to the crime, local police were unable to tie the gory crime to any particular suspect. Utilizing a bloody fingerprint left on a bedpost, Detective Eduardo Alvarez was able to peg the murders on the children's mother, who quickly confessed to the crime.
- Home to 57,000 residents, Ushuaia, Argentina is the southernmost city in the world. Despite its unique geographical positioning, Ushuaia is not subjected to extreme weather conditions.
- Cuban revolutionary and counter-culture idol Che Guevara is not actually of Cuban descent having been born in Argentina's third largest city Rosario.
- Perhaps tied to its extremely high rate of cosmetic surgery procedures, Argentina boasts the highest number of psychiatrists per capita of anywhere on earth. Buenos Aires even has its own psychoanalytic district – the appropriately named "Ville Freud". Ville Freud began its rise to prominence during the 1970's, a time marked by Argentina's notorious military dictatorship. In the last completed study, it was determined that Argentina had 145 psychologists per 100,000 residents, far ahead of second place Denmark, which boasts 85.
- The oldest known dinosaur species have been traced back to Argentina and Brazil, making both countries prime destinations for paleontologists. Species such as the Eoraptor are said to have walked the earth as far back as 230 million years ago, and well-preserved displays of their remains can now be found in museums such as the Argentine National Historical Museum in Buenos Aires.

FPS staff report
January 7, 2013
The four kindergarten classrooms at Carrollton Elementary School (CES) held a very special celebration Thursday, Dec. 20. at 2 p.m.
Students met in the school cafeteria to celebrate the wedding of Mr. Q and Ms. U. The kindergarten classrooms of Angela Johnson, Kelly Snider, Jeannette Swinehart, and Darcy Thorne-Leonard have been learning their alphabet letters this year with the 'Letter People' program.
The reading program uses bright and adorable puppets to introduce each letter of the alphabet to the children. The wedding of Mr. Q and Ms. U is a wonderful way for kindergarten students to learn that Q and U go together! Marcia Schaffer, of the Carroll County District Library, officiated the ceremony. Ms. U was carried down the aisle by Lisa Truman, CES Intervention Teacher, and was escorted by Tim Albrecht, Carrollton Elementary principal. Mr. Q was carried down the aisle by Dr. David Quattrochi, Carrollton Schools superintendent. Honored and special guest at the wedding was Mr. R carried by Ed Robinson, director of programs.
Schaffer told the group, "Gathered here today to witness and celebrate the joining of Mr. Q and Miss U in marriage...letters that are meant to be together, to watch them enter this quest and spend their lives together making words."
She asked Mr. Q, "To take Miss U to be his sound and word partner, both quickly and quietly, without any qualms and promise never to quit. Will you keep Miss U with you always except for words where she can stand alone, like umbrella and underwear?"
Miss U was asked to take Mr. Q and not quarrel or quibble but to ask questions and be quick to listen to each other.
Shaffer, a person of the community who writes many words using Q and U and as queen of the alphabet declared Q and U together in words forever. After a high-five, she presented sound and word partners, Mr. and Mrs. Qu.
At the wedding reception, children enjoyed dancing with friends and classmates. They ended the special event with a snack of juice and cupcakes. It was a wonderful afternoon for the kindergarten students at Carrollton Elementary at the wedding of Mr. Q and Ms. U!

Good Interviewing Skills Can Reduce Turnover Costs and Improve Productivity.
By Steve Schumacher
Several years ago, I worked with a company that, over the course of a year, hired three people in key positions who all failed and were fired within 90 days of being hired. They had interviewed very well, in fact they were superstars in the interview. When I talked to the managers who had done the interviewing, they all agreed that the candidates were "good people," "real go-getters," and "had what it takes" to do the jobs.

How our blog got its name
Sidney Hillman was a powerful national figure during the Great Depression, a key supporter of the New Deal, and a close ally of President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
When the rumor spread that President Roosevelt ordered his party leaders to "clear it with Sidney" before announcing Harry S. Truman as his 1944 running mate, conservative critics turned on the phrase, trumpeting it as proof that the president was under the thumb of "Big Labor."
Over the years, the phrase lost its sting and became a testament to Hillman's influence.
It's hard to imagine a labor leader wielding that kind clout today, but we like the idea—and we hope Sidney would give thumbs up to our blog.
Autopsy: Teen Shot in the Back By Border Patrol
The U.S. Border Patrol claimed that 16-year-old Jose Antonio Elena Rodriguez was throwing rocks over a border fence at U.S. agents when he was shot last October, but the autopsy tells a different story.
Bob Ortega reports:
An autopsy report raises new questions about the death of a Mexican youth shot by at least one U.S. Border Patrol officer four months ago in Nogales.
The Border Patrol has maintained that Jose Antonio Elena Rodriguez, 16, was throwing rocks over the border fence at agents on the U.S. side when an agent fired across the international border the night of Oct. 10.
But entry and exit wounds suggest that all but one of as many as 11 bullets that struck the boy entered from behind, according to the report by two medical examiners working for the Sonora Attorney General's Office.
Those bullets also entered the boy's body at a lower point on his frame than they exited, the report found.
"The only way I can fathom that report is that he was lying on his face when he was hit," said Luis Parra, an attorney representing the Elena Rodriguez family. [Arizona Republic]
Border Patrol claimed the boy was hurtling rocks clear over the fence, but the boy was at street level and the top of the fence was at least 43 feet above him, so if he was throwing rocks over the fence, he wasn't lying down at the time.
Nineteen people have been killed by Border Patrol agents since January 2010.

Amphibian Ark
The World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA) have joined with the Conservation Breeding Specialist Group (CBSG) and ASG to form the Amphibian Ark or AArk for short. The AArk vision is for the world's amphibians to live safely in nature. Its mission is to work with partners to ensure the global survival of amphibians, focusing on those that cannot be safeguarded in nature. The AArk works to:
- Rescues priority species and brings them into "protective custody" in zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens research centers and other institutions around the world for safekeeping and breeding.
- The rescued species will be released into the wild when the original threats have been controlled.
- Lead development and implementation of training programs for building capacity of individuals and institutions.
- Develop communication strategies, messages, and materials to promote understanding and action on behalf of amphibian conservation.

Alaska Airlines continues to evaluate in-flight internet providers and appears close to finalising an agreement after offering Wi-fi access on a single Boeing 737-700 aircraft last year.
The carrier has completed a test of Row 44's broadband solution on revenue flights, and is now deciding between Row 44's satellite-based solution or Aircell's air-to-ground (ATG)-based broadband system Gogo
"We'll definitely be making a decision here in the coming weeks on which system " Alaska vice president of marketing, sales and customer experience Steve Jarvis said during a recent discussion with investors. He adds that the Seattle-based carrier will focus first on deploying connectivity on its 51 737-800s to enable Wi-fi access on long-haul and transcontinental business routes in 2010.
In addition to equipping its -800s, Alaska this year aims to equip its 64 other 737 aircraft, which include a mix of -700s, -900s, and -400s.
"We'd like to have the entire fleet done but at this point in time, the decision needs to come first and then we'll start working as fast as we can to get aircraft deployed," Jarvis says. "I can't promise you the whole fleet in 2010, but that's our goal."

Recipe by tlthompson
"A lemon-flavored cream sauce perfectly compliments thin cutlets of golden fried veal. I like serving portobello ravioli with this dish."

8 (2 ounce)
pieces veal scaloppini
egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups
Italian bread crumbs
1/4 cup
olive oil
1/4 cup
fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup
white wine
1 tablespoon
1 (15 ounce) can
chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon
garlic pepper
1/4 teaspoon
lemon pepper
1 cup
heavy cream
I am always looking for a different recipe for veal and this is an excellent dish. I made it for just my husband and myself, but I would definitely serve this to company. The lemon cream sauce is delicious - I made a rice pilaf that soaked up the sauce and with fresh broccoli, and a glass of crisp white wine we had ourselves a feast! Thank you for this great veal dish.
The amount of lemon was too much for me. I could barely eat it, even after trying to lean it out.

Excellent. This is just a beautiful recipe that made for a beautiful dish and an outstanding meal. While I also make this with veal, in this case I used turkey cutlets, a darn convincing subtitute for pricier veal, both in appearance and taste. I floured the cutlets before dipping them in the egg and the bread crumbs. I made my own crumbs, just seasoning them with my favorite Tuscan seasoning blend. These cook in just a couple of minutes per side, so watch carefully! Once they're brown, they're done! The sauce is rich, and velvety smooth, with the flavors of the wine, chicken broth and cream blending masterfully into this simple but absolutely delicious sauce. I did add some fresh minced garlic right after removing the meat from the pan, and cut back on the lemon juice - but that's just my preference as I wanted a more subtle lemon flavor than I knew I'd get with the amount called for. I served this with "Pastachutta," also from this site. I couldn't be more impressed.
This review is for the sauce only, which I served over pasta. In Italy last June I ate a delicious lemon cream pasta, and I've been wanting to know how to do it without curdling the cream. This recipe is pretty darn close, and will be exactly what I was looking for with some adjustments next time I make it. Thank you!
The sauce by itself was very tart but when paired with the veal it worked very well. Next time I would use a sweeter wine as this may have contributed to the tartness of the sauce.
This was wonderful. I did not think I would like the lemon sauce but boy was I wrong. Thank you!
I tried this over egg noodles, with fresh broccoli. Great recipe, only I substituted light cream for heavy, for thinner sauce, but a bit lower in fat. Really enjoyed this and simple to prepare. A glass of Sauvignon Blanc complimented the meal nicely.
Absolutely delicious!!! I followed it pretty much to a T, except that I didn't use the wine-didn't have any, and I used a little less than a quarter cup lemon juice b/c of not using the wine-i didnt want the lemon to be overpowering. I also used 1/2 & 1/2 instead of heavy cream to cut back a little on fat and calories! My husband loved this as well. Served it with roasted red potatoes and asparagus. Wonderful!

Photoshop Says 'No'
I can't run Photoshop CS2 on my Mac. I've tried installing various versions from official to 30-day trial and theres something stopping Photoshop working. It starts loading up then just crashes. It's weird because it is literally just this app. It used to work a couple of years ago and then just stopped for some reason. Anyone got any ideas? Tried deleting everything and re-installed again but no luck. If I was to delete every single file to do with photoshop (without harming anything important like) could someone tell me where to look?
Love you all in advance :bomb:
so a spotlight search for photoshop and delete all files you deem apropriate. after that make sure that you got all your preference files.
Can you tell us a little about your system? Perhaps you don't have enough RAM? Perhaps you are nearly out of disk space? Perhaps your system is simply underpowered for the needs of today's Photoshop? Tell us more!
It's a G5 Single 1.8Ghz with 512ram. i don't think it's that. I'll do what you suggested coach.
Does it give you any error messages? Is 512 enough ram?

November 13, 2012
Framingham State University is enjoying a stellar fall athletic season highlighted by record-breaking campaigns for the football and volleyball teams.
The football team is 10-1 on the season and recently defeated Salve Regina to become New England Football Conference (NEFC) Champions and earn an invite to the NCAA Division III Tournament for the first time in school history.
"I'm so proud of the school, and these kids who worked so hard," Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Tom Kelley said following the team's 28-16 victory in the championship game.
The team is scheduled to take on SUNY Cortland in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament on Saturday, November 17.
The volleyball team finished the season as Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC) regular season and tournament champions, earning an automatic bid to the NCAA Division III Tournament. The team fell in the opening round of the tournament to Connecticut College, but still ended a highly successful season with a 24-10 record.
The FSU men's and women's soccer and cross country teams also enjoyed highly competitive seasons, as each team qualified for championship tournaments.
"I'd like to congratulate all our athletic coaches and student athletes on terrific seasons this fall," Framingham State President Timothy J. Flanagan said.

Emile Henry
Great for making a single-serving lasagna, this dish is also the perfect vessel for cooking individual casseroles or desserts. Crafted from high-fired clay found in France's Burgundy region, this stylish kitchen classic can safely go in the freezer, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and broiler.
Emile Henry cookware and tableware has been built to perform since 1850. But it's the luscious colors and designs that keep us craving. Crafted in Marcigny, France, from the local Burgundian clay, the dishes are hand-dipped in a rich glaze that resists scratching. Many are based on designs from the French company's archives and have the look and feel of French country pottery from the late 19th century. The ovenware is not only strong enough to withstand the abrupt temperature changes of freezer-to-oven cooking but is also beautiful enough to join the dinner party.

Are you voluptuous? Thick? Full-figured? Plus-sized? Then today's post is all about you. For too long, I've neglected my ladies with vintage, hourglass figures. This time, we're talking stockings (and other kinds of hosiery) for "real" women.
In this article, I'll discuss the best places to buy the big three: stockings, thigh highs, and tights. As always, if I leave out your favorite brand, don't think twice about adding it in the comments!
It's no secret that stockings have the power to make any woman, no matter her size, feel like a sex goddess. A peek of a garter strap, a slight breeze under your skirt, and suddenly you're part of a tradition of seduction stretching back for generations.
Secrets in Lace has a dedicated Curvy Leg Salon where they stock both lace topped and plain topped stockings. Both are made of a nylon/spandex blend, but the plain welts are a deal at only $19.99/pair.
Stockings Direct, a UK company, also carries Cervin and Levee stockings in sizes for curvy gals. The most inexpensive pair, the Cervin Paris Capri 15, is an incredible $10.94/pair…a great price for any budget.
Last, but not least, Stockingirl carries two varieties of queen sized stockings for big and/or tall girls–the Patricias, which come in packs of 3 for $21.99 and the Divine Divas which go all the way up to a shoe size 13 and a weight of 220 lbs.
Thigh Highs
Don't feel like dealing with garter straps everyday, but having trouble finding a thigh high stocking that won't dig, bind, or cut off your circulation? Fortunately, manufacturers and retailers alike are recognizing that women exist in more than "one size fits all."
Once again, Secrets in Lace offers a selection of two stay-up stockings, both with lace tops. The British retailer MyTights also sells hold-ups from the European brand for voluptuous ladies, Levee. UK Tights also stocks plus-sized hold-ups from Cervin. You can purchase either look shown here for less than $20/pair.
Frederick's of Hollywood also carries thigh high stockings for plus-sized figures as well.
Last, but certainly not least, we'll talk about tights. If you're a curvy girl who loves tights, then you're in luck because there's lots to choose from here.
My very first stop for tights would be We Love Colors. Not only do they stock opaque, striped, and fishnet tights in plus sizes, all of their products are available in over 51 colors and nothing costs more than $20 (some tights are even less than $10!).
MyTights and StockingsHQ would be my next stop for tights as they carry the quality budget labels Pretty Polly and Levante. StockingsHQ also carries the Gipsy line, which I haven't tried, and MyTights stocks shapewear tights from British fashion gurus Trinny and Susannah if you need a little extra holding power. Finally, UKTights and Frederick's of Hollywood also stock fashionable tights for the fuller figured ladies.
Now that the weather's getting cooler, and tights are becoming a necessity in some regions of the globe, I hope this article helps with your search. If you're a curvy gal, where do you shop for hosiery? Why don't you tell me in the comments?
Good morning fellow nylon enthusiasts! I don't know about you, but I'm a big fan of this season's lace trend. Lace can give even the simplest of outfits that extra edge which pushes you from flat to fabulous.
Unfortunately, I can't quite afford the $55 price tag for Wolford's Flora lace tights. Fortunately, several other designers have caught on to this trend are producing their own variation. So who comes closest to the Wolford label?
I believe I've found a winner with the French hosiery brand Love Me, sold through StockingsHQ. Though these are stockings, not tights, the Love Me pattern appears almost identical to the Wolford one but costs a whopping $40 less at only $14.
If you visit Wolford Boutique London, you can see that several other lace patterns due to be released later on this year. You can bet that when they do, Stockings Addict will find the best "knock-off" for you! Happy Shopping!
After lusting over last year's Chantal Thomass collection, I couldn't quit without viewing photos of this year's array, and I'm oh-so-happy I did.
In my opinion, Bruno Dayan's photography perfectly captures the playful yet cultured spirit of the Parisian couturier's lingerie. And it turns out when I dug a little deeper, that I'd seen Dayan's work before…
Mary Green Silk Knit with Lace Chemise
Was $50, now $12.50
Wacoal "Lost in Lace" Underwire Bra
Was $44, now $26.40
On Gossamer Mesh Thong Bodysuit
Was $39, now $19.50
Fayreform "Candid" Boyshort
Was $28, now $14
Fayreform "Vitality" Full Coverage Underwire Bra
Was $62, now $31
Panache "Venus" Suspender/Garter Belt
Was $32, now $16
D&G Dolce & Gabbana "Please Me" Thong
Was $30, now $7.50
DKNY "Belle du Jour" Underwire Balconette Bra
Was $32, now $16
Cosabella "Soiree" Low Rise Hotpants
Was $24, now $12
Much like the Lay's potato chip commericals of the early 1990's, it's impossible to view just one Chantal Thomass lingerie collection.
Of the many, many undergarment ad campaigns I've seen, this 2008 one, which uses flowers to both illustrate and offset the delicateness of the lingerie, is one of my favorites.
I finally made it to the end the Ellen von Unwerth rabbit hole by finding these images of her ad campaign for Chantal Thomass a few years back (2006 to be exact).
Rosie Huntington-Whitely is quickly becoming one of my favorite lingerie models, but I have to say Melissa Rose Haro (her dark haired companion) looks rather amazing herself.
We're not done yet, though. Chantal Thomass is known for her seductive and breathtaking ad campaigns, and if you like these, you'll almost certainly love what I have to show you tomorrow.
The wonderful ladies at The Lingerie Post also love stockings and just put up a scan of the latest "Beauty by Numbers" (a trivia page) from Allure magazine. This month's edition is all about the history of stockings. Better study–there will be a quiz. ;-)
I am so tired I can barely keep my eyes open, but I have to blog because today is my 500th post. When I started Stockings Addict, I wasn't even sure I'd still be around in a month…much less 18 months. And I have to say, without exaggeration, that starting this stockings blog is one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life–right up there with backpacking across Europe and moving to Seattle. Though I'm not the most popular stockings blogger online, I think my little corner of the internet is a great success, and here's why:
1) Better sex life. I debated even including this item since the relationship I planned to write about ended last weekend. But you know what? Writing about lingerie and wearing lingerie makes me feel sexy…and if that's not a part of having a good sex life, I don't know what is.
2) Awesome social network. I've met and talked to people that I would have never known without starting this blog. One of them is even a real life galpal, Stocking Vixen. Relationships can't be measured in dollars, so even if I were to stop writing tomorrow (and don't worry, I won't!) Stockings Addict is a success because of the friends I've made.
3) People read my blog and value the information here. If I didn't have readers and commenters, I would have stopped writing long ago. Your feedback sustains me, and I want you to know that I appreciate every single visit.
4) I have learned so much about lingerie. Believe it or not, I used to hate lingerie. Growing up in the South, I had to wear ill-fitting pantyhose to church every Sunday, and I thought girdles were a tool of the devil. Writing this blog has exposed me to so much that, even though I'm a long way from being an expert, I'm definitely a more knowledgeable consumer..
5) A new identity as a writer. It hit me a few weeks ago, that I'm one of those people. A blogger. A writer even. It's an identity that's grown on me, and with plans to take Stockings Addict to its next phase, I'm ready to take my writing to the next level as well.

This was tough because Simon Cowell does so much that no one is really aware of but it was his busy work schedule that split him and Terry. I also think that Jen Aniston has been working nonstop all year long but..... Ellen is AMAZING! She does so much, she has a hit talk show, she hosts shows, she guest judges and has become a judge!

We took out the big blue tube with the family. Very fun and exhilarating! Great with the kids! Would go again.
Returned to Lake Harmony specifically for Joe. If you want to try any of these water sports, you will not get a better instructor. My 17 year old daughter was water skiing in no time. The tubing can't be beat. Very professional. Very focused.
Its something will make your trip to Lake Harmony complete, from tubing to barefooting, Joe can teach them all !!! Joe is a great teacher , my kids and their friends have great times on the lake, Thank you so much Joe !!!
I had never tried wakeskating before and Joe got me up on top of the water in less than 5 minutes. I absolutely loved wakeskating.
My wife, my 15 and 12 year old sons, 12 year old niece and 80 year old father-in-law had a great time with Joe! Certainly the highlight of our Poconos vacation! Joe is very personable, professional and certainly knows how to give a great ride!
My son and daughter (20 and 16) learned how to wakeboard. Joe was a great instructor and taught them how to get up with ease. They both loved it and can't wait to do it again. My husband and I want to join them the next time. If you are in the Lake Harmony area, you have to stop by...
We visited Lake Harmony for a few days of fun & relaxation. My husband and two oldest children (7 & 4) rode in the huge tube while I rode in the boat with our youngest child (6months). Joe was awesome! Everyone in the tube had a blast and was ready to go again. The kids didn't event want to get...
Barracuda Joe Rocks the Pocono's !!!! The tube rides were awesome !!! Our family had ages ranging from 5 to 75 and we all had the thrill of sitting in the cozy raft, held onto the handles and zipped around Lake Harmony bouncing, laughing and having the time of our lives !! Joe will adjust the speed of the boat...
We took our 15 yr old daughter and all had a blast. Joe's skill on Lake Harmony can't be beat. His cruise and tubing activities were the highlights of our trip. It was so much fun, the prices were reasonable and Joe is very professional.
For first water skiing lesson I would not find better instructor than Joe. Really friendly and professional he turned this lesson into the fun time and actually taught me how to water ski. I would recommend it to anyone.

Hillside, Mt. Zion fall in Invitational
Even though it only took the better part of one quarter, Hillside couldn't adjust to Christian Faith Center Academy's length and speed until it was too late Friday in the City of Durham Holiday Invitational at Mt. Zion Christian Academy.
The Hornets fell behind 21-5 and could never get back over the hump in a 68-56 loss. Hillside will play Mt. Zion in a consolation game tonight at 7:15 p.m., while CFCA advances to face Garinger in the championship game.
Garinger got effective second-half play from 7-1 freshman Raekwon Long to pull away in a tight, defensive struggle for a 50-45 win. Billy Joyner led Mt. Zion with 12 points.
De'Shon Self had a team-high 18 points for the Hornets, who were soundly beaten on the glass by the Conquerors.
"Their length changed what we wanted to do both offensively and defensively," Hillside coach Crasten Davis said. "It was a very physical game — nothing we aren't used to — we just couldn't get over that first-half mountain."
Hillside got back into the game with an 11-0 run in the second quarter, and thanks to the Conquerors' foul trouble — Hillside entered the 1-and-1 bonus with 3:30 remaining in the first — only had one field goal during that stretch.
CFCA again pushed ahead by double digits in the third quarter only to see Hillside climb back again. The Hornets pulled to within 50-47 early in the fourth before the Conquerors inside players again took over the game.
Sharwyn Smith scored all eight points of an 8-3 run, and Markell Lodge closed the game by scoring his team's final six points. Smith had a game-high 19 points while Lodge had 16.
"They're a very good team, a much-improved team," Davis said. "Their rebounding really hurt us."
Guard Jalen Robertson added 17 for the Conquerors, but more importantly he had Hillside's guards in so much foul trouble that Davis began making offensive and defensive substitutions early in the fourth.
"I thought we played well overall," Davis said. "Turnovers hurt us in the beginning, and it took too much time to get over the early shock."
Malik Evans had 16 points for the Hornets, who will be facing Mt. Zion for the second time this season. The Hornets won the first meeting 67-64 in a Bull City Classic Championship game.
Christian Faith Center 68, Hillside 56
CFCA — Jabriel Rahman 4, Jalen Robertson 17, Elijah Mulciibi 2, Jalen Barnes 2, Markell Lodge 16, Sharwyn McGee 19, Stavian Allen 4, Deshaun Griffin 4.
HILLSIDE — D'Ontray Johnson 3, Robert Robinson, Jr. 9, Malik Evans 16, Isaiah Dickens 2, TyQuon Reid 6, Trevion Thompson 1, Marius McAllister 1, De'Shon Self 18.
Records-Hillside 9-3.
Garinger 50, Mount Zion 45
GARINGER — Raekwon Long 12, Kemmi Pettway 4, Paul Coleman 3, Jamarkus Eison 13, Keith Davis 10, Ranardo Jones 2, Kenny Vaughn 4.

Ball unhappy with effort
by Stuart Vose
U21 coach pulls no punches after Villa defeat.
Kevin Ball felt several of his players didn't produce the effort required as the under-21s suffered a 4-0 home defeat at the hands of Aston Villa yesterday.
A second-half hat-trick from Michael Drennan and a single Graham Burke strike saw the visitors head south with all three points in the Barclays U21 Premier League.
And Ball pulled no punches in his post-match assessment, saying some members of the team "let down" the side as a whole.
"Over the previous three games we'd been smashing and I can't take that away from the players," he said.
"But the biggest thing is continuing to put things into practice when you think you're doing well, otherwise it bites you on the backside, which happened badly.
"Individually, too many players didn't put in the effort required to give Villa a good game and help the team.
"You have to put a shift in for the team, and if you're not prepared to do that the team will suffer, and you as an individual more so."
He added: "We were always on the back foot. It could have been more than four goals.
"One or two of the players weren't honest with themselves. They've let themselves and their team-mates down very badly and I can't accept that."
