When it was announced that Paul McCartney and the surviving members of Nirvana would be playing at the 12/12/12 Sandy Relief Concert the media largely responded largely with puzzlement. The idea seemed destined to fail, summoning images of the worlds coolest grandfather playing with the worlds coolest dads. The reality was entirely different. Instead of blasting through a set of nostalgia hits the group, including Nirvana supplemental guitarist Pat Smear, simply played a new song. Nirvana wrote incredible pop songs under all the distortion, and their fuzzy crunch added a delightful edge to McCartney's rock chops. If they'd played a hit it could have been come across as a crass to the memory of Kurt Cobain. This was the most respectful, and still thrilling, thing they could have done. And we get to hear a song written by Paul McCartney and fucking Nirvana.

Dr. Kuntz operated on me in 2009 for bladder cancer. Good result and he was quite helpful with follow-up visits. Gave me reasonable discretion over follow-up care. Made himself available, even though I didn't strictly follow his post-op treatment plan. Good Doc!
I am shocked to read these other reviews and have to say that they appear to all be old reviews. I found Kuntze to be ontop of his game and funny (in his own way). My friend raved about him so I made an appointment and I was not disappointed. Office staff is also friendly and went out of their way to make sure I had all of my records on file prior to my appointment so all my concerns could be addressed.
Misdiagnosis and rude, defensive behavior. Do not place your trust in this doctor. Months of pain and confusion. Self-absorbed doctor that does not connect with his patients in a positive manner.
Doctor Kuenzt appears to be great with children so much so that he tends to talk down to the adults in the room. I feel the same as many of the other reviewers: it's very uncomfortable asking him any questions. Most of the time he talks over your head and is very rushed. I'm not a doctor and shouldn't feel stupid for not understanding medical terminology. If you inquire about things he is vague and quick. I realized today it's because he probably has way too many patients and doesn't know much about my son's condition at all. I realize a lot of doctors overbook themselves and it's really hard to find one that can at least pretend to care. One of our appointments involved Dr. Kuentz explaining a cystoscopy to my 8 year old son(without my consent) and then asking me "why is he so upset?" When my son cried upon hearing a camera would be stuck up his urethra. I give him three stars because despite his flaws he was able to communicate with my son effectively. He wasn't terribly rude just bad bed side manners.
Twice my files/data were interpreted incorrectly by Dr. Kuntze resulting in two unecessary, expensive procedures. The first time I let it go as stuff happens. The second time Dr. Kuntze attempted to deny the paperwork and became defensive. His ego fills the room. I have seen Dr. Kuntze be extremely kind but he is rushed and overworked. He needs to be in one office doing the one procedure he does well and needs a review of his own office practices-mess ups, confusion, miscommunications galore. I located a urologist outside of Dr. Kuntze's group. The contrast in care is that when this new doctor sees me it's clear he has reviewed my file and is prepared to discuss my case. Dr. Kuntze makes remarks that show he hasn't a clue or only just a vague one and has just sprinted in from the parking structure.
When I went with my husband to the appointment just prior to his surgery, Joseph Kuntze came in and never acknowledged me or introduced himself. In fact the first words out of his mouth to my husband were: if you shaved your legs and wore fish net stockings, we might have a future.He never looked at either one of us and doodled on a paper during the appointment. He asked if we had any questions and when we asked about the Hearst Cancer Foundation at French Hospital he discouraged us saying they just confuse you; we don't support it.We went to Hearst at French Hospital anyway and Michelle, the navigator nurse went out of her way to help answer questions, talk about the journey through cancer and she and her co facilitator Steve do a support group in Arroyo Grande where we live and it was awesome. So much for Kuntze wisdom. I think he is a total arrogant egomaniac with a narcissistic personality disorder who is rude and defensive if you ask him any questions. He keeps saying he has 30 years of experience in his field; and quess what; so do I and I am a psychotherapist and know what I'm hearing and seeing from him. It is all very unprofessional.We also found that he tells you one thing one visit, and sometime different on the next. He kept insisting my husband had to stay in the hospital the day of surgery and 3 days thereafter. On the day after surgery, then said the discharge was to be on the third day not the fourth. He's very worried about not being thought of being involved in medicare fraud, maybe he is.He has no bedside manner, and I am very sorry we ever met up with him and his associates Courtney and Michael Clayton.
I have been with Joe Kuntz for more than 10 years through high PSAs, kidney stones, and much, much, more. He is thorough, professional, and kind. Most of all, no matter what the problem he is straight forward with me and helps me maintain my perspective - and sense of humor. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Dr. Kuntze was wonderful with my daughter. He went out of his way to make sure she was comfortable. He diagnosed and fixed her problems in a very professional manner. My daughter was sad when she didn't need to see him anymore.
Clearly a very busy and high-energy person, he made sure he answered my questions. My advice: come prepared with a list of written questions because you won't have time to "remember" what you wanted to ask. He went out of his way to make my son laugh when he was having a bad day, and for that I'll always be grateful.
At first I was okay with him....then as time went on I discovered when I questioned him or had concerns he would become irritable and defensive.....now when I go in I go in ready to be pretty much yelled at for asking questions about my daughters condition.
Dr Kuntz is a very busy doctor and it shows, but he is a very professional individual and has an excellent staff with Jennifer Eckerman as a great assistant.
Dr. Kuntze Is my daughters urologist, and she is four years old....I cant say enough good things about him. He diagnosed the problem and fixed it. He was very kind to my daughter and playful, he answered all my questions, and he is overall a wonderful person.
Actually asked me if my previous urologist (a woman) was "hot". Geez, this is 2010 not 1960.
This guy is rude, that is all I can say.
Unfortunately, he's the ONLY Urologist in the local market. He's a narcissistic egomaniac with a Napoleon complex. The worst doctor I've dealt with in my entire life. Absolutely NO bedside manner.
He has the worst bedside manner on earth. I was extremely uncomfortable with him as my urologist. He had left a stint in for over six months. I was made to feel absolutely hopeless about my medical situation. He also mixed me up with other patients on numerous occasions.

by Libby AnneThe spirit of beautiful girlhood is alive in the girl who, with courage and fortitude, perseveres through the many challenges of life. She realizes that "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen," and consequently, strives for the principled course of action.My parents saw us children as empty slates, and held that we had been given to them as gifts from God. At the same time, they believed that babies were born full of sin and ready to lead destructive, miserable, evil lives if allowed to develop without training. Therefore, my parents believed that it was their duty to shape and mold us into godly men and women, and they took this duty … [Read more...]

Any suggestions for a good restaurant or bar to watch the Monday night Dodger game?
Where will you be staying?
Buffalo Wild Wings would have the largest TV Screens showing the game and a lively crowd.
I like Slater's 50/50 for the food, they will have the game on, but might be hard to find a seat, smaller location and smaller TV screens.
Yes, you don't mention where in LA you will be! Do a yelp.com search by neighborhood and look for sports bars. GO DODGERS!!!!
I'm assuming since the OP posted in the Pasadena Forum, they are staying in Pasadena.
You may also want to check out Yard House in Pasadena.
I specifically was talking about Buffalo Wild Wings and Slater's 50/50 in Pasadena, since this is the Pasadena Forum.
Both locations are in the center area of the city and close to the LA Metro Gold Line.
Although my good friend that is a very frequent contributor on the Israel forums posted this in the Pasadena forums (we can all see that), it would still be useful to know where the good Pastor will be staying as there may be more convenient places for him to watch.
Dr. Z
Are you looking just for a sports bar, or for a place with good food? And do you want huge screens and loud sound and lots of screaming fans....or just a place to eat and watch? If the latter, Gus's BBQ in South Pasadena has a main room with two screens over the bar. Sound is usually off. It has good food, more of a family restaurant kind of environment.
If the first...I don't have any experience with those kinds of places, so can't help.

Causa sui
Causa sui (Latin pronunciation: [kawsa sʊi], meaning "cause of itself" in Latin) denotes something which is generated within itself. This concept was central to the works of Baruch Spinoza, Sigmund Freud, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Ernest Becker, where it relates to the purpose that objects can assign to themselves. In Freud and Becker's case, the concept was often used as an immortality vessel, where something could create meaning or continue to create meaning beyond its own life.
In traditional Western theism, even though God cannot be created by any other force or being, he cannot be defined self-caused (causa sui) or uncaused, because this concept implies the Spinozian pantheistic idea of becoming, which contrasts with the belief of scholastic theology that God is incapable of changing.
The Catholic concept of [...] God as absolutely independent and self-existent by nature, and, consequently, all-perfect without any possibility of change from all eternity, is altogether opposed to the pantheistic concept of absolute or pure being [that] evolves, determines, and realizes itself through all time.[1]
Changing implies development, and since God is to be considered the Absolute Perfection, there is no further need to change: he is the so-called actus purus or aseity.[2][3][4] Instead, the recent process theology inserts this concept among the attributes of God in Christianity.
On the other hand, Baba Nanak defined God as self-existent in his bani Japji.[5]

|Discriminative power of different nonmotor signs in early Parkinson's disease. A case-control study.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20198714 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The objective of this study was to evaluate the discriminative power of different nonmotor signs for early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Thirty patients with PD with <or=3 years of disease duration were compared with 30 healthy controls. Six deficit domains (DD) were defined: hyposmia, sleep abnormalities, dysautonomia, visual deficits, executive dysfunction, and depression. Plotting of Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and exact conditional logistic modeling, followed by manual stepwise descending procedure were used to identify a model for nonmotor signs that detects early PD. Patients with PD and controls did not differ in terms of age, gender, and educational level. Several DD discriminated patients with PD from healthy controls. Visual deficits showed the largest area under the ROC curve (0.83), followed by hyposmia (0.81) and dysautonomia (0.80). When combining the DD visual deficits and dysautonomia, the best residual model was obtained; it maximized both sensitivity and specificity for PD at a level of 0.77. At an early disease stage, several nonmotor domains were already able to discriminate patients with PD from healthy controls. Visual deficits had the best discriminatory power. Being brief and inexpensive, visual tests should be further investigated in larger cohorts as potential screening tool for early PD.

The year after my father died, I graduated from grad school, got a new job, and looked forward to saving for a down payment on my first home, a dream I had always had, but found lofty. I pulled up a blank spreadsheet and made a line item called "House Fund."
That same week I got a call from my mom—she was struggling to pay off my dad's funeral expenses. I looked at my "House Fund" and sighed. Then I deleted it and typed the words "Funeral Fund" instead.
My father's passing was unexpected. And so was the financial burden that came with it.For many Millennials of color, these sorts of trade-offs aren't an anomaly. During key times in their lives when they should be building assets, they're spending money on basic necessities and often helping out family. Their financial future is a rocky one, and much of it comes down to how much—or how little—assistance they receive.

Secondary Chern-Euler forms and the law of vector fields
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: The Law of Vector Fields is a term coined by Gottlieb for a relative Poincaré-Hopf theorem. It was first proved by Morse and expresses the Euler characteristic of a manifold with boundary in terms of the indices of a generic vector field and the inner part of its tangential projection on the boundary. We give two elementary differential-geometric proofs of this topological theorem in which secondary Chern-Euler forms naturally play an essential role. In the first proof, the main point is to construct a chain away from some singularities. The second proof employs a study of the secondary Chern-Euler form on the boundary, which may be of independent interest. More precisely, we show by explicitly constructing a primitive that away from the outward and inward unit normal vectors, the secondary Chern-Euler form is exact up to a pullback form. In either case, Stokes' theorem is used to complete the proof.

Announcement June 4, 2015
We regret to announce that we will not be able to accept new customers for record pressing at this time (our recording studio is still accepting new clients). Due to the overwhelming demand of vinyl pressing, our production is backed up. Existing customers will need to call us before placing orders so that we can reserve your place in our production schedule. This is a temporary policy, and we hope to resume normal production in the near future.
High Quality Record Manufacturing
At Musicol, we have been pressing vinyl since 1971. We offer complete 12" and 7" (both at 45 or 33 1/3 rpm) vinyl pressing. Musicol is proud to use Finebilt manual record presses exclusively. This means each record we manufacture is inspected, by a trained press operator, for quality and consistency. We only use top grade class 1 vinyl for your recordings. Our manufacturing staff are some of the most experienced press operators in the business.
Custom Vinyl, Small Runs, Large Runs, Fast Turnaround
Since every record that is manufactured at Musicol is made manually, it is easy for us
to do custom and/or short run jobs, in fact, we specalize in small, high quality runs
of custom records. From simple black records to custom color records to half and half
records, the look of you record is only limited by what you can think of. We even have
the press operator special run, where you pick the colors and each record will have a
different design. No custom job is too big or small.
In House, All Analog Mastering
Included in the cost of your job is in-house mastering (lacquer cutting). Mastering is the process by which your audio gets cut into grooves on a
lacquer disc that will ultimately become the metal master stamper that your record will be made from. That means the best mastering equipment and
most experienced mastering engineer are essential for getting the best record. Our mastering engineer, John Hull, has been cutting records for over
60 years and has mastered thousand of records. His cutting system includes a modified 1944 Scully lathe with Westrex cutting head and all tube cutting
amplifier. The cutting is done directly from playback unit to amplifier to cutting head. This means none of the digital delay typically found in the
mastering line is present to degrade the sound of your music.
Amazing Analog/Digital Sound Studios
Musicol is home to one of the finest recording studios in Ohio. Studio A, built in 1966, offers musicians
the opportunity to capture their songs through an army of vintage Neumann Tube Mics, RCA Ribbon Mics, 2"
16 track recorder and Pro-Tools HD system. We also have one of the finest collections of vintage tube
pre amps, limiters and equalizers in Ohio. Take the virtual tour to see if Musicol Studio A fits your
needs by clicking here.

The new model definitely is worth the money. It is a big upgrade compared to the A700!
Vignetting & Light Falloff
Vignetting and light falloff aren't something we would normally test in our digital SLR reviews, primarily because cropped sensor digital SLR's and don't exhibit much falloff. With full frame sensors, however, there's a far more real risk of corner shadowing (especially with wider lenses), though it's unusual for it to be an issue in everyday photography.
Technically vignetting refers to a darkening of the corners of the frame due to a physical obstruction such as the rim of the lens barrel or a filter, light falloff refers to a reduction in the amount of light reaching the far corners of the frame due to the angle of incidence of the light reaching there. Light falloff is sometimes referred to as cos4 vignetting. In this section of the review we will refer to this effect as falloff for simplicity (and more likely accuracy) however it could well be either or both vignetting / light falloff.
Measurement Areas
These images are then processed by our own analysis software which derives an average luminance (Lum) for the four corners of the frame (5% each) as well as the center (10%), the corners are averaged and the difference between this and the center of the frame is recorded. This value can then be plotted (see graphs below) as a representation of the approximate amount of falloff.Hence falloff of -30% would mean that if the luminance center of the frame was at exactly 100% (pure white) the average luminance of the corners would be 70%. Anything more than -20% may well be visible in everyday shots, although this depends on the framing of the shot and the exposure.
Range of falloff
The chart below demonstrates the difference that these figures above can make, we took the blank wall luminance value of 75 (about 190,190,190 RGB) as our normal level. Remember that these patches are solid and the actual effect of shading is a softer gradual roll-off which would never be so obvious. The thumbnails are created by breaking the fall off into the same bands for clarity, so the same comment applies to them.
Fall off results
As you can see, with wide zoom lenses on the Alpha 900 you can expect fairly strong corner shading when shooting wide open, though how much varies considerably from lens to lens. We found with this particular lens (the 24-70mm ZA) that the amount of fall-off at the wide end remains fairly constant throughout the aperture range, and overall the amount of fall-off is slightly higher than the equivalent Canon body/lens combo.
Although you can see fall off in some shots with some lenses, whether or not it's seen as a 'problem' (one that's common to all larger format sensors) will vary from user to user. It's easy to remove (the new version of Sony's raw coverter has a corner shading removal option), and in most situations simply won't be an issue.
Lenses: Sony 24-70mm F2.8 ZA and Canon 24-70mm F2.8 L EF
Sony 24-70mm F2.8 ZA fall off thumbnails
@ 24mm
@ 70mm
Sony 50mm F1.4 Fall off thumbnails (F1.4-F2.5)
Compared to: Canon EOS 5D (50mm F1.4)
As the graph shows the amount of fall-off is broadly the same for the Alpha 900 and EOS 5D when used with their respective 50mm F1.4 primes. Stopping down to around F2.8 removes pretty much all the visible corner shading.

JUDGES IN RASTA DRUGS STORM; New Guidelines Signal a Two-Tier System over Cannabis
Byline: STEVE DOUGHTY
JUDGES were given a signal yesterday to be lenient with cannabis users who say in court that they are Rastafarians.
They have been told that Rastafari-ans regard smoking cannabis as a 'sacrament' and that they should take religious practice into account in dealing with cases.
The instruction comes in race guidelines for judges, which even tell them to beware of using the word 'British'.
Judges should 'raise their level of knowledge' about ethnic minority religions, say the guidelines, which place Rastafarian-ism alongside the great world faiths.
It is strongly suggested that drug laws should be applied differently to those who claim to be adherents of an ethnic minority religion which approves of drug abuse.
The guidelines - issued on the day that Tony Blair condemned the evil of drugs in his Labour Party conference speech - will be sent to every judge in England and Wales by the Lord Chancellor, Lord Irvine.
They tell judges that knowledge of minority beliefs 'can help judges understand why particular actions were taken or not taken' and that 'awareness of a person's religion is an integral element of being aware of equal treatment issues'.
The rules provoked a furore last night, with critics accusing Lord Irvine of encouraging judges to ignore the law which makes possession of cannabis illegal, and of bending the law in favour of one minority group. One MP called on
judges to ignore the instructions, drawn up by the Judicial Studies Board, the organisation which trains judges, with the backing of Lord Irvine and his officials.
The guidelines, contained in the Equal Treatment Bench Book, tell judges: 'Justice in a modern and diverse society must be "colour conscious", not "colour blind".' They also give judges a list of terms they should and should not use, with 'coloured' regarded as an offensive word, and 'West Indian' as an 'inappropriate' term.
They are told to be careful of the word 'British' and to avoid it unless they can show it is used in an 'inclusive' manner.
The rules refer repeatedly to Rastafarianism even though many view it as a movement, not a real religion. Its leaders claim no more than 10,000 followers in Britain.
Yet the Bench Book - endorsed yesterday by both the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Bingham - states: 'Smoking cannabis or ganja ("the herb") is considered an important part of Rastafarian religious practice and is treated as a sacrament.
'Ganja is seen as natural and as God's gift and Rastafarians seek to legitimise its use by reference to biblical texts.' The Bench Book cites for judges Hebrews 6 verse 7: 'For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringing forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God.' Rastafarianism is banned in jails because it is regarded by the Prison Service as encouraging the use of cannabis and as a potential source of racial tension. Last night MP Julian Brazier, chairman of the Conservative Family Campaign, said: 'The law must be the law for everybody. Far from promoting satisfactory relations between people from different ethnic backgrounds, this will cause resentment.
'There will be a backlash if there seems to be an exemption for one group from the laws that apply to others. …

SEC basketball getting started
Published: Tuesday, January 6, 2004 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 4, 2004 at 7:55 a.m.
Scribblin' on Sports . . .
The SEC basketball season will get underway this week with Auburn playing at Vanderbilt Tuesday night, then hosting Ole Miss Saturday afternoon. Alabama will play at LSU Saturday afternoon.
The games played previously have been primarily an exhibition season, preparing the teams for the second season, which is the beginning of the road to March Madness. That's when basketball really gets top billing.
The NCAA tournament is the real season in college basketball because that will decide the national champion. However, the winner of the tournament may not necessarily be the best basketball team. But tournament play is the most exciting way to pick a champion.
A lot of things can go into deciding a game, or a tournament. Basketball teams sometimes play in streaks - have hot nights, and cold. Then there are injuries to contend with. And getting the breaks on officiating, which often plays a major role in the outcome of a game.
As the speed of the game has increased, officiating has become more difficult - in basketball as in football.
The time has come for officiating to become a full time career, where the officials train year-round.
It is also time to use the replay on close calls, which would eliminate a lot of mistakes. If the officials could see what the fans see on the slow-motion replays, there would not be nearly as much criticism of the calls.
However, the electronic age hasn't seemed to help pick a national champion in football. I'm talking about the computerized rankings.
"But I remain opposed to a playoff," the writer wrote. "How many times has the NCAA basketball tournament actually produced the best team in the land? N.C. State in `83 and Villanova `85, for example, were `Cinderella champs' that everyone likes to see now and then.
"But were they the best teams? How often have the final actually featured the two best teams?"
The writer said the greatest NCAA game he ever watched, N.C. State vs. UCLA in `74, was in the semifinals. And the famous 104-103 Duke-Kentucky game in the early `90's wasn't even a Final Four game.
Unlike basketball, which is at its best in a tournament setting, the best thing about college football is the season. Let the champion be picked on that basis.
That is a good question. And the only answer I have is that it probably should have been. We just goofed on that one.
Before he became a minister, he had some rough times, and was once almost killed in a motorcycle accident.
In the article he recalled how he drew daily encouragement through prayer - and sometimes in his lowest moments, he thought of Charley Pell, his former coach at Jacksonville State.
In the article Stephens said, "Every time I'd get ready to quit I'd remember Coach Pell saying, `Everything worthwhile comes with a price. If it's free, nobody values it.'"
He told about the day in 1971 when he and 32 other freshmen met with Pell on the first day of fall practice.
"Look around you," Pell said. "Look to your left and right. Four years from now, very few will still be here. Because if football was easy, then every able-bodied male on this campus would be playing.
"Remember," he said, "that anything worth having is worth paying the price."
That was more than three decades ago, and Pell has been dead for almost two years, but Stephens still reveres Pell.
Pell cared for people, and he was an inspiration to everyone with whom he came in contact. Even up to the day he died, he was encouraging others.
Stephens said when he thought about quitting football, before the knee injuries that cut short his playing career, that Pell would tell him:
"Take it one day at a time, one task at a time, one game at a time, one tackle at a time, one kick at a time. And never go to bed with a task to do. Even if it takes you all day, don't go to bed before that task is done."
That is still good advice, and those who heed are better for doing so.
"Coach Pell was good to me, better than my own daddy," Stephens says. "He loved his players. You'd never see one of his players who didn't love him."

Residents Crying Foul over Fire District Fees
Byline: Kat Zeman
If a fire breaks out in her home, Gladys Wiebe will hold off on dialing 911. That's because she lives within the Roselle Fire Protection District. If she lived elsewhere, she wouldn't think twice. But beginning Jan. 1, it could cost Wiebe hundreds - possibly thousands - of dollars for fire assistance.
"I will take a hose and try to put it out first," said Wiebe, who lives in an unincorporated area near Schaumburg. "I have an old fire extinguisher but I'm going to get a new one. ... This scares the death out of me. How are we going to get the money to pay for this? I can't believe it. This is unreal."
The Roselle village board approved a cost-sharing contract Monday with the Roselle Fire Protection District and the fees, which don't appear to have a precedent in the Chicago area, are a part of the package.
That means residents living in unincorporated areas near Roselle, Bloomingdale, Schaumburg, Itasca, Elk Grove Village and Medinah will start paying $30 per hour for every firefighter who responds to their home in case of a fire, plus $100 for each responding emergency vehicle per hour.
A number of district residents showed up at the meeting in protest.
"I think it's sloppy government," said Mark Puchalski, resident of the Roselle Fire Protection District who lives near Schaumburg. "It's a silly way to collect the budget shortfall."
The fire protection district, which has no firehouse of its own and relies on the manpower and equipment of the Roselle Fire Department, has been trying to negotiate a new contract with the village for months. …

Here I can complain only about price. Sony margin for SLT a77ii which now sells with grip for $900 is substantially smaller.
Again, they could have reused live settings preview from SLT cameras instead of closing aperture and loosing PDAF and causing EVF lags. It's really bad. They probably saved 3 man months in the early stage of NEX development and now every new camera behaves that way. From my experience with Japanese companies, the guy who developed original AF in NEX probably has been promoted, so now it's not just 3 Japanese salaries to fix.
There are many small things Sony will be improving one by one in each new camera.
But with my A6000 I am mostly annoyed with eye sensor triggering too early - about 4" from the belly. I would like to be able to setup proximity sensor sensitivity.
I actually like A7m2 a lot. If proximity sensor is fixed, I'll probably have to buy it. Otherwise I am thinking about real FF or maybe wait for A7m3.
Xentrax: I actually like how A7 line looks. And I like this camera.
I would like built-in wireless flash controller serving also as a small flash, and with HSS.
Hopefully, in this camera EVF-LCD eye sensor triggers at s smaller distance than 4" in previous cameras. This was a major showstopper for me.
Another problem was that camera always works in aperture preview mode, causing EVF lags and reduced AF performance due to less light reaching sensor. I don't think that is ever fixed.
Actually, since Sony introduced Live Effects in SLR cameras (like A580) and then SLT cameras (like A65), they did not have the problem. Aperture is fully open during AF.
Besides different DOF. final image exposure might be slightly different from Live View Setting preview in A65. But the difference is minor.
Also, when LE-EA4 adapter is installed, Effects Preview do work with aperture fully open. So Sony firmware still has most of the required algorithms already in place.
They are just lazy (it's not bad at all). And we don't complain enough (that's the bad thing).
I think they just implemented AF in video with ability to select any aperture, and then Sony just reused the algorithm in static photo.

alexpaynter: I am struggling to see why this is better than an a6000. I am assuming it has the same processor, same sensor, same autofocus etc.
It has a bulkier body which some may find easier to hold.
Why does A6000 claim 92% AF coverage then? A77-II has much less AF coverage area.
I don't know how well AF sensors in the corners perform compared to center one, but still A77-II does not give an option as it does not have any corner sensors at all, at least press release does not mention it.
Besides that A6000 AF system does not really need calibration, while separate AF sensor plate in A77-II will have to be adjusted at the authorized service center. Otherwise, as factory calibration is not very good, one has to introduce microadjustments for every particular lens.
Same ugly look, but GPS removed and AF assist removed.
Hopefully new AF module will beat ages-old AF in Nikon D300.
If Sony installs that module into next FF camera it will be a shame, as A99 has only small area covered with AF sensors because A99 uses sensor designed for APS-C.
GPS was a unique feature in a cheap A65. Pricier A77M2 does not have GPS.
And no dedicated AF assist red lamp! Hopefully they give 50% discount...
From some tests available AF seems to be good. Sony needed AF improvement. Sony used to have bad AF-C and small AF area.
But how do people decide that A6000 EVF so much worse than in NEX-7? By specs? Or there some apparent deficiency? Bigger pixels mean better colors and less wiring. Is microdispaly size smaller?
A6000 lacks just one feature. I would pay some more to get SEALED cropped body. But even if Sony does such a camera, it will charge much more.
And there is no 16-50/2.8 cropped lens. A-mount has such lens, and SEALED and with SSM.
f/4 is really not enough for cropped sensor both in terms of ISO and in terms of DOF. There is non-SSM 24-70 FE, which seems to be a good upgrade path. I may go that route after seeing ISO performance tests.
I get it that all that is solved with A7+24-70/4 FE, but there are issues like no Electronic Front Curtain Shutter and also price.
Currently I think I would buy A77 successor, not this one. Or both, SLT will stay home, this one - with me.
Xentrax: What type of menu does it have? NEX or RX?
Yes, but RX menu is not that convenient as A65's or A580's let alone A700's. A700's FN button full screen menu + wheel(s) allowed very fast setting modification.
What type of menu does it have? NEX or RX?
I may be wrong, but I can see in the photo above that Panasonic did not enable 150% scaling in Windows 8 in this demo unit. The UI elements will still be rather small with 150% scaling but usable. What we see in the picture is not usable at all.
The camera is good, so it's a dissapointment that it seems to have small AF area and it does not have built-in flash (for emergency cases and for driving wireless flashes). I'm not switching to Nikon becaue I like in-camera stabilization but I am not spending money on A99.
Sony could license lens design from Olympus XZ-1. F2.5 at 112mm eq. is more than 4x brighter than Sony's typical F5.6-F6.3. F1.8 at 28mm eq. is more than 2x brighter than Sony's typical F3.2.
Sony would have at least 1 decent compact camera then. Such camera does not have to sell well; its only purpose is to make people mention Sony as a compact camera brand; as a measure of the PR effect, DPReview may even decide to review such camera like they did with LX3, XZ-1, S95, P300. DPReview have never reviewed a Sony or Kodak(!) compact camera separately.
I could find only 5 flaws in the camera:
Unlike Samsung or Nikon, Canon decided to go with 4:3 aspect ratio(#1) which is wrong in the era of wide screens, considering that most compact camera users make only landscape shots. Hopefully this sensor does not end up in a mirror-less interchangeable lens camera by Canon.
This heavy(#2) camera has no GPS receiver(#3) or automatic lens cover(#4), has small battery(#5) but it features rather useless viewfinder.

Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Sherf SolvedI don't believe there is an adaptor to change a USB port from 1.1 to 2.0.
Although the iPhone specs designate a USB 2.0 port is required, you can use an iPhone with a USB 1.1 port for syncing only (I don't believe it can be used for charging the iPhone) but syncing will be a painfully slow process (USB 2.0 is too slow IMO - Apple should have kept syncing via Firewire with the iPod and done so with the iPhone also but went with USB to allow for more Windows users) and you may come across a syncing time out issue on occasion but it can be done.

Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Allan SampsonYou are correct, there is no such adaptor, but a USB 1.1 port on an iMac should have no trouble charging, speed isn't the issue full power is. But I would think syncing photos would be awfully tedious.
AndyO Aug 29, 2007 1:45 PM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to SherfI use 1.1 to sync my iPhone and it works fine. Speed is not much of an issue in terms of syncing data such as contacts, calendars etc, but is noticeably slow with playlists particularly. Not unmanageably so, but noticeable. Syncing photos from the iPhone to system is not a problem either - these are fairly small files, but syncing larger photos from system to iPhone is slow.
I also use the same USB1.1 port to charge the iPhone each day - no problem at all, and it takes the same time to charge as via the wall plug.
What you WILL likely see when you connect is a dialog box stating that you are using a device that isn't iPhone compatible and offering you the option to put the phone into airplane mode. Decline that and it should work fine. You might also see that iTunes doesn't reliably open - however, on those occasions it doesn't, you should be able to open iTunes manually, and have the iPhone automatically discovered and placed in the source list on the left.

Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Allan SampsonFirewire isn't any faster than USB2.0, it is actually a bit slower.
USB2.0 = 480Mbps
FireWire = 400Mbps
Unless you use firewire 800 but that is still pretty new and not widespread.
A USB2.0 device will still work with a USB1.1 (or 1.0 I believe) port and the same for a USB1.0 or 1.1 device will work in a USB2.0 port, but not at high speed.

Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Randy FastOh yes it is - much faster which is based on much more than just Mbps due to the differences in the architecture.
Do yourself a Google search for the differences between the two with data transfer testing/timing results for each side by side. There is a significant difference and we Mac users were forced to take a step back due to firewire not being as prevalent on PCs.

Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Randy Fasthttp://www.usb-ware.com/firewire-vs-usb.htm
Question: If Hi-Speed USB 2.0 is a 480 Mbps interface and FireWire is a 400 Mbps interface, how can FireWire be faster?
Answer: Differences in the architecture of the two interfaces have a huge impact on the sustained throughput.
* FireWire, uses a "Peer-to-Peer" architecture in which the peripherals are intelligent and can negotiate bus conflicts to determine which device can best control a data transfer
* Hi-Speed USB 2.0 uses a "Master-Slave" architecture in which the computer handles all arbitration functions and dictates data flow to, from and between the attached peripherals (adding additional system overhead and resulting in slower data flow control)
* Read and write tests to the same IDE hard drive connected using FireWire and then Hi-Speed USB 2.0 show:
*Read Test:*
5000 files _(300 MB total)_ *FireWire was 33% faster than USB 2.0*
160 files _(650MB total)_ *FireWire was 70% faster than USB 2.0*
*Write Test:*
5000 files _(300 MB total)_ *FireWire was 16% faster than USB 2.0*
160 files _(650MB total)_ *FireWire was 48% faster than USB 2.0*
Randy Fast Aug 30, 2007 6:45 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Allan SampsonYea, yea I already knew all that. In actual using of the 2 they will probably be even. But for 90% of the world USB2.0 is the better choice since most PCs do not come with firewire ports, you have to add it in yourself if you want it. When I got my first 3G ipod it was firewire and I had to go out and add a PCI card to be able to use it, on top of that it didn't even use itunes, had to use crappy music match. One test someone did is no measure of how one outperforms, you need dozens accounting for many situations.
AndyO Aug 30, 2007 6:58 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Randy FastIt's certainly true that USB is far more ubiquitous, and clearly that's the reasoning for opting for it, but the fact remains that technically firewire is a much better interfacing technology, and indeed is far more practical in applications requiring sustained data transfer rates than USB2.0 could hope to be. Even syncing a complete music library via USB while using the system for routine stuff like emailing will substantially increase transfer time, while with FW it would not.
Given that FW is more expensive to implement it's not surprising that USB is more popular with manufacturers, always keen to save a buck or two, but we're buying poorer performance by saving a small amount on manufacturing cost.
macjmillsx Aug 30, 2007 7:24 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to SherfWhen I got the video iPod when it first came out I was disappointed to find out firewire was no longer supported. It seemed crazy to me because firewire was noticeably faster, especially when syncing 30+ gigs of content.
As Allan so succinctly put the differences between the two, firewire is a steady throughput, while usb is up to 480mps there are dependencies and latencies that mean it isn't a steady stream at that bandwidth.
I began to poke around the web trying to find an explanation as to why Apple would make such a stupid move as to cut out firewire from their latest iPod. What I read (and this is not gospel, just one thing I read) is that usb utilizes the system processor to manage the transfer as in the aforementioned master slave setup... firewire allows the devices to communicate and facilitate the transfer directly thereby cutting out the middle man.
Apple was preparing to switch to intel processors, and it seems that catering to a connectivity standard that cuts Intel's chips out of the loop (despite it's superiority) was not advantageous for intel, so usb was favored in light of Apple's new partnership with intel.
AndyO Aug 30, 2007 7:32 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to macjmillsx
...so usb was favored in light of Apple's new partnership with intel.
I suspect it was far less complicated than that. It seems most likely to me that the reason Apple (sadly) dropped FW support was that it was selling the vast majority of iPods to PC users for whom FW was not available without buying additional hardware, while USB was present in everything. Given that syncing an iPod generally doesn't demand highest consistency of throughput, I suspect they realized the shift to USB would not cause the majority of users any noticeable detriment, but would also remove a potential obstruction to sales volume.
Of course, that's supposition on my part.
Dogan Aug 30, 2007 7:34 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to macjmillsxmacjmillsx,
Some Intel retail motherboards have had firewire since around 2002 and the 845E model. Other motherboards for Intel processors and other x86 processors have as well. However, the majority of prebuilt Windows-based PCs don't.
It's probably more likely that USB was used in iPod and iPhone because they are marketed to Windows and Mac both.
Nathan C Aug 30, 2007 7:38 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Allan SampsonAllan,
A USB 1.1 might be high-powered and charge the iPhone or iPod. The USB 1.1 standard didn't require ports to be high-powered. The USB 1.1 ports in Macs are high-powered USB ports with the exception of the keyboard.
A USB 2.0 port should be high-powered, but on devices running on battery might not be. If its not a high-powered port it won't charge the iPod or iPhone.
As for the original poster's question if the port coming from the computer is USB 1.1, any device plugged into it will be limited to USB 1.1 speeds. A USB 2.0 hub connected to a USB 1.1 port works as USB 1.1 hub. You can put racing slicks on a subcompact car, it doesn't make it go any faster though.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Randy FastYea, yea but if you already knew all this then you wouldn't have stated that USB 2.0 is faster than Firewire 400 because it is most definitely not faster so either you didn't know this or don't understand the differences between the two which has nothing to do with many PCs not including a superior data transfer technology and architecture.
The data transfer rates between the two architectures ARE NOT IDENTICAL. I guess the documented evidence provided with the same available in many other places are lies and in addition I performed my own tests with an iPod in the past.
Apple has included a Firewire port or ports in addition to USB ports with all their computers for a good while now - way ahead of any PC box assembler just as with most everything else with Apple leading the way and the others following. No different when Apple was including an Ethernet port with all computers way before anyone else and before the majority of people had any idea what it was for.
Yes USB is more common but is definitely a step back to Firewire 400 in regards to transfer rate speed - and with adding video to the iPhone and iPod with video, I sure do miss it as do many other Mac users.
Sherf Aug 30, 2007 8:54 AM
Re: USB port for iPhone in response to Allan SampsonMy thanks to all who responded to my question about a USB 1.1 port for an iPhone. I'm greatly relieved to learn that I can use this port even though is may be slower, and I won't have to consider buying a new computer at this time. One of the upgrades to iTunes said it required a 2.0 USB port, but the 1.1 seems to work fine with iTunes. However before I paid $500-$600 for an iPhone, I wanted to be sure it would work with my current USB.
Thanks to all who responded,

October was a hellishly busy month. Hardly got anything read.

10/27/2012 Demon (audiobook) by John Varley
10/27/2012 Times Last Gift by Philip José Farmer
Listened to John Varley's Gaean Trilogy, from the early '80's. I remember really liking this trilogy when I read it in my early 20's. I was less excited by it three decades later.
The Moral Landscape
was interesting, but seemed overly familiar because it covered so much of the territory already gone over by Dawkins and Shermer -- although in Shermer's case, I think Harris got there first.
Space: 1999
, published a couple years ago, left me pretty flat. It moved through a predefined series of tasks, concluding most of the "mythology" laid down in the first year of the series (mythology largely ignored in the second season) and setting all the pieces up for the forthcoming "Year Three" novels. So, it served it's defined purposes, but did so with little style or panache.
Pete Townshend's memoir was a great read, but I got the feeling Pete was massaging the storyline in places to Protect The Innocent (including himself -- his justification for how he ended up subscribing to a questionable website had the ring of a lawyer-mandated wording.) Picking another nit, Pete admits he cut the manuscript by about 50%, and there are a few artifacts of that cutting -- he makes reference back to incidents that didn't survive the cutting, leaving a few WTF moments. But all in all it was an enjoyable read, but for a fan like myself, much of the story was familiar.
I obtained a copy of the 1975 reprint of the complete run of
The Mattachine Review
. One issue from 1961 was almost completely taken up by an extract from Marion Zimmer Bradley's novel-in-progress,
The Catch Trap
(which didn't see publication for 18 more years.) It was interesting to read an early draft, and compare it to the finished version ("Giant Step" is essentially Chapter 12 of
The Catch Trap
.) Although it was extensively rewritten, the characters and the storylines are all the same. It made me want to re-read
The Catch Trap
, even though I only read it last year.
Read a couple of Philip José Farmer's short novels about a character who bears a striking resemblance to Tarzan.
A Feast Unknown
is a devious deconstruction of Tarzan and Doc Savage, in which the two characters, the immortal half-brothers (both sons of Jack the Ripper) battle each other -- and battle an affliction that prevents them from experiencing sexual arousal except during violent acts. As Spock might say, "Fascinating."
Currently listening to unabridged readings of the
Star Trek: Vulcan's Soul
trilogy by (the late) Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz. I've read the first volume,
, before -- but remember almost nothing from that reading. The second and third volumes will be new to me. Reading several Phil Farmer books in round-robin, and trying to get started back into reading some
Star Trek
novels. I'm way behind on the current 24th-century chronology, and I have more than a dozen titles to get through before reading the current
Cold Equations
trilogy by David Mack. Here's a list of the
novels I want to read over the next few months (the last three titles haven't been published yet):
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Never-Ending Sacrifice by Una McCormick
Star Trek: Voyager: Unworthy by Kirsten Beyer
Star Trek: Titan: Synthesis by James Swallow

Loyola University Health System to Hold Holiday Mass Services
Being sick is never easy, but to be hospitalized during the holidays can be especially disheartening. Bringing holiday hope, tradition and cheer to the hospital, Loyola University Health Systemâs Pastoral Care Department will hold special noon Masses on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Yearâs Eve and New Yearâs Day.
âHolidays are difficult times for our patients and their families. I think itâs a blessing for them to know and experience that they are surrounded by the support and prayers of the Church and people here at Loyola,â said Ron Galt, chaplain.
The services also will be broadcast on Loyolaâs internal TV channel allowing patients unable to attend the services due to medical conditions to watch them from the comfort of their room.
âItâs all about being part of a family, whether they can be physically present or not,â said Galt. âIt can be of help and support to know they are being prayed for every day and that they are an important part of our Loyola family.â
According to Galt members of Loyolaâs staff who give up their time with family and friends to care for those in need during the holidays, as well as people from the surrounding community also take part in the services.
âThis truly speaks to who we are as an institution,â said Galt. âGiven the importance of Christmas and the holidays to people and their faith, it is important to offer these services. Being here is no sacrifice; itâs a privilege.â
WHEN: Thursday, December 24, Noon Friday, December 25, Noon Thursday, December 31, Noon Friday, January 1, Noon
WHERE: Paul V. Galvin Memorial Chapel Loyola University Hospital Lower Level 2160 S. First Avenue Maywood, IL 60513

Pa. bounces back with big-time talent
Mike Farrell
Recruiting Analyst
The state of Pennsylvania was way down in talent in the class of 2011 as evidenced by zero five-star prospects, only two players in the Rivals100 and a spattering of MAC and even DI-AA prospects in last year's Top 40. However, this year is a different story.
This year there is a five-star in Bishop McDevitt defensive end Noah Spence at the top of the rankings with another prospect, running back Rushel Shell from Hopewell, in striking range. And the overall depth in the state is much better than 2011, especially along the offensive line and at running back where there are many stars.
the 2012 ranking and are followed by offensive lineman Chris Muller from Boyertown Area Senior, an early Rutgers commitment. Muller is one of many offensive linemen in the top 40 followed by Fox Chapel Area star Adam Bisnowaty (No. 5), Pennsbury big man J.J. Denman (Penn State commitment at No. 8), Archbishop Wood Catholic mauler Frank Taylor (Boston College commitment at No. 13) and his teammate Brandon Arcidiacono (Rutgers commitment at No. 19) as well as Lancaster Catholic standout Adam DePietro (Northwestern commitment at No. 18).
At running back, Shell leads the way but is followed by two other backs in the state' top 15. McDowell speedster Greg Garmon checks in at No. 6 and Downington East standout Drew Harris lands at No. 11. Linebacker is another position of strength led by Sto Rox stud Deaysean Rippy (No. 9), Valley View hitter Nyeem Wartman (Penn State commitment at No. 12) and McKeesport 'backer Tyrone Neal (No. 16).
There are many early commitments amongst the top 40 players in the state. Rutgers boasts four commitments while Penn State already has three and Pitt has two. Florida moved into the state to nab Archbishop Wood Catholic tight end Colin Thompson while Miami came calling for Central Bucks East defensive end Jake O'Donnell. Other out-of-state programs boasting commitments include Boston College, Northwestern (2), South Carolina, Michigan State, Virginia (2) and Maryland (2).
Also released on Friday are state rankings for Michigan, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri and Nevada. Look for the state rankings from Louisiana, New Jersey, Illinois, Nebraska and Utah on Monday.

Opponents of Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit's plans are recruiting paid signature-gatherers in a last-ditch effort to get a measure on the November ballot to overturn the commute line's sales tax.
RepealSMART organizers also said Thursday they are intent on gathering 40,000 signatures by Jan. 27 to force SMART directors to set the election.
"We would rather the money go to people locally than spend the money to fight this in court," said Clay Mitchell of Windsor, co-chairman of the repeal effort.
SMART's opponents believe that only 15,000 signatures are necessary to qualify the measure, using a threshold set by Proposition 218, a measure passed by voters in 1996 that set up an initiative process to overturn existing taxes.
SMART officials, however, are relying on the Secretary of State's advice to follow a state election law that uses a different formula, which would require 39,000 signatures.
Organizers of the repeal campaign believe they will reach the 15,000 mark, Mitchell said, but by paying $1 per signature may possibly collect 40,000 signatures, giving SMART no choice but to set the election.
RepealSMART has relied on 250 volunteers to circulate petitions since late September. Mitchell said they are still trying to determine how many signatures they have gathered so far.
Supporters of SMART on Thursday called it a sign of desperation and a lack of community support for the repeal campaign.
"It is a sign of urgency and unease that they will not make their goal," said Jack Swearengen, chairman of Friends of SMART and of a broader group, the SMART Riders Coalition, made up of business, labor and transportation advocates.
RepealSMART is circulating petitions in an effort to place a measure on the November ballot to repeal the quarter-cent sales tax, which voters approved in Sonoma and Marin counties by 70 percent in November 2008.
