A: Don't do it! You can't afford it if the loan would require such sacrifice, and you already know the kinds of additional dilemmas this may create. Here's the solution: Give a gift instead of a loan. The size of the gift should be the amount you're comfortable with giving. This approach will keep you out of the murky and treacherous waters of loaning to friends and family. My policy is to give a gift but never a loan.
Your gift allows you to say "yes" without putting you in the poor house or setting you up for future unpleasantness. Also consider non-financial ways you can contribute to the "good cause" behind the fund request.
Q: I recently learned of the whereabouts of someone from a dark part of my past. Yes, trouble is spelled G-O-O-G-L-E. If the statute of limitations hadn't run out, I'd be tempted to prosecute. Should I send the sorry dog a letter and demand accountability, or should I let sleeping rat dogs lay?
A: Yes, write him a missive so scorching that it nearly burns your hand to touch it. Tell him everything you'd like for him to hear. Lower the boom, empty both barrels and unleash your full fury. Spare nothing. And don't stop until you are spent. Now, read very closely. This next part is critical.
Go outside, get a match and set the letter ablaze. Believe that by doing this you are accomplishing three things: you have lightened your load by pouring out your feelings and thoughts; you have "sent" the message to the heavens ,and the heavens will handle it; and you have incinerated all the bad stuff associated with the scoundrel. Then go pour up a nice merlot (or ginger ale if you're Baptist), and toast your new liberation.
Q: I am a married 66-year-old male. My backyard neighbor (a single mom) has two daughters, ages 17 and 13. The 13-year-old has an IQ of 70 and cannot be left on her own because she cannot make responsible decisions. To help the mom I occasionally take the 13-year-old — a very sweet young lady — for parts of or a whole day. The 17-year-old has a summer job and works during the day. A friend of mine said that I need to be careful because teenage girls will accuse you of inappropriate acts if you cross them. I say this will not happen with this girl. The mom is perfectly comfortable with me caring for her child.
A: Continue your kind and generous support of this family. Obviously the mom trusts and needs you. That trumps the negative comments of a friend who is removed from the situation. Don't you dare let him derail you from helping these folks. So many wonderful works have been squashed by the words of one loser. Don't be fooled by a fool.

Bulbtronics Inc., the premier domestic and international distributor of bulbs, batteries and related lighting products, has introduced an LED Lighting Guide available online.
This comprehensive catalog displays Bulbtronics' full spectrum of LED retrofit offerings
to replace halogens, incandescents, miniature based bulbs and more. Comprised of
over 80 LED products, Bulbtronics has hand-selected the most current and best-performing
LEDs for a wide variety of
products and applications. As LEDs are a newer and constantly
changing technology, Bulbtronics is dedicated to routinely reviewing its product
line to ensure the most up-to-date technologies are included. This online catalog
reflects Bulbtronics' ever-increasing product line in real-time.
LEDs play a major role in the 'green' initiative due to their low energy consumption
and absence of hazardous chemicals. LEDs are also challenging the recently popular
compact fluorescents (CFLs) as the 'green' bulb of choice. There have been concerns
about the proper disposal of CFLs as they contain small amounts of mercury, however
LEDs are mercury-free, eliminating the need for recycling. They also consume less
than half the electricity as CFLs and last twice as long.
"This is an innovative tool for our customers," says Michael Nachman, Bulbtronics'
LED Specialist. "We are constantly updating our LED product line and the advantage
of this online catalog is that real-time information is always available to reflect
those additions. This is also a great tool for locating LED replacements for those
hard-to-find bulbs for older equipment. Companies and consumers who are concerned
about 'going green' will find LEDs environmentally-friendly as they do not contain
mercury and they conserve energy as compared to traditional bulbs."

English is not my native language and I've noticed that Panasonic's cameras sold in the U.S. only support English and Spanish. How can other languages be added?
Unfortunately, they can't. The languages are embedded into the microprocessor, and selected for each regional version of our cameras. A note of warning - do not attempt to load firmware intended for another region into your camera. It will not change the available languages and it may seriously damage your camera. Such damage is not covered under the product warranty.

Not as far as the camera is concerned, but YouTube or Facebook mayhave their own limitations.
Do I need to install firmware updates for my camera that are posted on the Panasonic website?
Firmware updates are usually not mandatory. They are released to correct minor issues that were discovered after the product was released. We suggest you read the description of what changes the new firmware makes. If you are experiencing that condition, you may wish to install the update.

Can additional languages be added to the camera?
The camera is unable to add additional languages.
Are there firmware updates available for my camera?
If the "Drivers & Downloads" tab is visible, then there are updates available for your camera.
Firmware updates are occasionally released to correct minor problems that may have been discovered after the camera was released. Not all cameras may experience the issue that was responsible for the firmware update. Review what the firmware changes and see if you are experiencing the problem that the new version corrects. If so, install it - If not, no need.
Are cameras sold in the U.S. covered by an International Warranty?
Generally, no. Some cameras sold abroad are sold with an international warranty. In order for the warranty to be valid, the proof of purchase must show that the camera was purchased in a country that offers products with international warranties. "Gray Goods", foreign versions purchased in the U.S. would generally not have a valid U.S. warranty, and in some cases even obtaining an out of warranty repair could be a problem when parts are not available.
What is AVCHD?
AVCHD stands for Advanced Video Coding High Definition. AVCHD is the format for recording and playback of High Definition Videos.
What does the letter at the end model number mean?
The letter denotes the color of camera.

The LCD screen on my camera is blank. What do I do?

Regarding the GPS feature of the DMC-ZS7, why is it that sometimes the location recorded to the photo is not correct?
When the camera is turned off it wakes up a few times per hour to obtain its current location. If the camera is located in a place where it cannot receive the GPS satellites, the position cannot be updated. In this case, when powered on it can take 30-60 seconds to acquire the latest position assuming it can receive the GPS satellites. There is a status indicator on the LCD screen that will tell the user when all the required data has been obtained. If a photo is taken without allowing the location to be updated, the last accurate location will be used.

I've noticed that while using my GPS equipped camera, sometimes, the location is not inserted.
GPS is a "line of sight service" that receives signals from several satellites that are constantly moving overhead. In order to calculate your position accurately, your camera's GPS receiver must simultaneously receive at least 4 GPS satellites. At any given time the number of satellites that are in line of sight to your camera will vary. Also, if you are using the camera in a city, near tall buildings, they may also obstruct your line of sight view to the GPS satellites. The building creates shadows, just as with sunlight, that can create temporary GPS outages. Such incidents are normal and do not indicate any problem that would require service.
Is there any software for the Mac OS that will work with the camera or camcorder?
Yes, iMovie and iPhoto can be used to import the video and pictures.
Is PHOTOfunSTUDIO compatible with Mac?
No, PHOTOfunSTUDIO is not compatible with Mac.
I'm traveling overseas and need to know if I need a voltage converter?
The charger that is provided with your camera will work with global AC power, from 90 - 240 VAC; no "power transformer" is required. You will however require a mechanical adapter plug to convert the two pronged plug used in the U.S. to the power connection type used in the countries you will be visiting.
I'm having problems transferring photos via Wi Fi directly to my computer.
In the majority of cases the difficulty lies with the sharing attributes of the folder to which you are attempting to send photos to, and/or a mismatch in the computer's network name. First, check to see if you installed the PhotofunStudio software that came with your camera. During the installation, you will be asked if you want to create a "Lumix Share"folder. Answer "YES". This will automatically set the sharing attributes of this folder to allow sharing with an external device, the camera in this case. If you have not installed it, please install it now. Next, when Windows is installed it automatically creates a "workgroup"and gives it a default name of WORKGROUP. If the you changed this name, the camera must be changed to match the new name. This is done from the camera's WiFi setup menu. Finally, after both of the above have been checked, please reset all the WiFi settings back to their default values. Once this has been done, create a new connection.
I'm confused, my iPhone does not have NFC technology, will I still be able to transfer photos from a Panasonic TS5 to an iphone?
Yes, as long as you have the Lumix Link App on your phone. NFC is only supported by the Android format.
If a SDHC, SDXC Memory Card is used for continuous video recording, will it stop recording when it reaches 4GB?
In AVCHD video recording, the file will be divided, but it will not stop recording video. However, in MP4 video recording, recording will stop when 4GB is reached.
I was looking for a new SD card for my Lumix and found some that are Wi-Fi enabled ("Eye Fi" brand and similar). Are these compatible with this particular camera?
Panasonic does not specifically set up our cameras to work with this type of SD Card. The best thing to do is check the website of the manufacturer of the card. They usually list all the cameras that their card works with.
I saw a notice on Panasonic's web site that a firmware update was available for my camera. What is a "firmware update" and is it important that I install it?
Panasonic may occasionally add a new feature to the camera, or if we discover a minor problem after the camera started selling Panasonic may issue new firmware to make the necessary changes. Any new firmware release includes a description of the changes it makes. If you are having the problem it corrects, or if you want to add the new feature, follow the instructions and install the update. You should always begin the firmware update usong a fully charged battery.
I purchased a third party battery for my Panasonic Lumix camera and have discovered it doesn't work. Why is that?
Panasonic's digital still cameras include safety technology that can authenticate a genuine Panasonic battery. Compare to older type nickel cadmium batteries, today's Lithium-Ion batteries can store substantially more power. With this increase, additional safety measures must be included to guard against over charging or short circuits that could cause damage to the camera or even personal injury. Many after market batteries do not include these safety features. Panasonic's design places the customer's safety first.
I need to download PHOTOfunSTUDIO.
PhotofunStudio cannot be downloaded from the Panasonic web site. If you own a Panasonic camera, please contact our parts department. You will need to provide a copy of your proof of purchase. There is no charge for the software, but there is a minimal charge for the shipping and handling.
I need drivers for a Mac.
There are no drivers required for either Mac or PC.
I need a RAW driver.
RAW files require more than a driver to view the files. RAW files can be read using photo editing programs such as Adobe's Photoshop or Aperture. These companies also release software updates to allow their programs to read each manufacturers newest camera's RAW files. Panasonic's G series cameras also come with Silky Pix, a simplified program that allows the user to open and adjust RAW files.
I last used my DMC-ZS7 about a week ago. I charged the battery before putting it away. Today when I went to use it the battery was almost dead. Is the battery defective?
When the camera is turned off it wakes up a few times per hour to obtain its current location. If the customer knows the camera will not be used within the next few hours, be sure did disable the GPS function from the operating menu.
I just purchased an SDXC card (48 GB or 64GB). When I connect my camera to my computer running the MAC OS it's unable to read the card. Is there an update available?
At this time Apple (MAC) does not recognize or support SDXC media. We anticipate that Apple may already be working on a software solution. Please contact Apple for additional information.
I had to resize some photos taken with my DMC-ZS7. Now, the GPS locations are not displayed. Why does this occur?
The GPS location data is stored with each photos EXIF data. Many photo editing programs will delete or remove EXIF data. EXIF data was originally intended to verify that the photo was an original photo and not one that was edited or modified.
I formatted my SD Card on my computer and now my camera is saving my pictures to the internal memory.
The newly formatted SD Card is not being recognized by the camera. The SD Card should be formatted in the camera to make sure the format structure is recognized by the camera. Also, make sure the card is not locked.
I cannot seem to figure out why the flash goes off twice when shutter button pressed to take pictures.
This occurs once red-eye reduction flash option selected. The subject should remain still until second flash triggered.
I can not see the RAW files on my computer.
Your computer cannot view RAW files by itself. RAW files require using photo editing programs such as Adobe's Photoshop or Aperture. These companies also release software updates to allow their programs to read each manufacturers newest camera's RAW files. Panasonic's G series cameras also come with Silky Pix, a simplified program that allows the user to open and adjust RAW files.

How do I know when my Digital Still Camera battery is fully charged?
When a battery is inserted into a Panasonic charger a green steady light will appear. When the green light goes out, the battery is completely charged, and ready to use in the camera. A blinking GREEN LED indicates a charging problem. The battery can be "shorted", though more often it is caused by a battery that is too hot or too cold. The battery should be allowed to come to room temperature before charging. Also, if the battery is 100% discharged, the blinking condition will subside after the battery has been on the charger for 10-15 minutes. If the condition persists, the battery should be replaced.
Why do I have spots on some of my photos?
Spots can occur due to dust or dirt inside the lens, or when flash is used in a very dusty environment.

Producer Notes
The emergence of Williams Selyem as one of California's Pinot Noir leaders is an improbable success story. Founders Burt Williams and Ed Selyem started making wine under the Hacienda del Rio Winery label in a garage in Fulton. Their first wine was a 1981 Zinfandel, but very soon after they began their quest for great Pinot Noir. By the late 1980s, Williams had retired as a typesetter and Selyem... More »
