Is there one?
I remember lusting after the first gen Raven, how it was so sick. I was a big fan of the Super V, and the Raven just took the concept even further.
Never had a chance to own one, as they were out of a starving student's reach.
But now there might be one up for sale, a first gen with the cool blue finish and a Headshok, for $300. Is that a good deal? What do you guys think?
Yes, I know. Very, very old technology.Everything seems to work, but I think the fork does need servicing, and with V-brakes, I'm not really counting on it working as well as a new bike. But it sure feels nice and light, in a way that a Super V never felt. So what do you gus think, is it worth it?

Seeking a Friend at the End of the World
The 10 Must-See Movies of June 2012
- By Jack Giroux

- June 1, 2012
One month down in the summer movie season. We got a decent opener, certainly not a grand start. Joss Whedon's box-office juggernaut and Wes Anderson's lovely Moonrise Kingdom aside, we faced disappointments. The Dictator was hit and miss. Battleship was more bloated than big. Although it was better than its harsher...
Steve Carell Won't Be Alone in 'Seeking a Friend at the End of the World'

One thing I never really imagined I would see made is a romantic comedy starring Steve Carell and Keira Knightley. That image just doesn't compute in my brain. But in the upcoming Seeking a Friend at the End of the World, just such a thing is going to happen. And...

KIDD, ELEANOR ESTELLE Eleanor Estelle Kidd passed away on September 25, 2012. She was born on January 14, 1915 to James Mallory Kidd and Maybelle Bradford Kidd, who predeceased her. She was also predeceased by her brothers James Mallory Kidd Jr. and William Bradford Kidd. She is survived by her sisters-in-law Anne Dickson Kidd and Margaret Cole Kidd, and by the children she dearly loved of her brother James, James Mallory Kidd, III (Katherine), Robert Dickson Kidd (Sharon), John William Kidd (Susan), Donald Bradford Kidd (Robin), Leila Anne Kidd Rowan (Roby), and a number of grand-nephews and grand-nieces. Her long time house manager Thomas Jones, and caregivers Catherine Merchant, Rejeana Leftridge, Martha Myles and others were dedicated to her for some years, and she to them. She attended public schools in Birmingham, and was graduated from Phillips High School, later taking her undergraduate degree from Birmingham-Southern College and her Masters degree from Columbia University. She was a legend in her day, both in Birmingham and elsewhere in the country. She was at one time a fashion model in New York, and her image was seen internationally on advertisements of various products. She was asked by the famous jeweler Harry Winston to be the last person to wear the Hope Diamond before it was given by Mr. Winston to the Smithsonian Institute, where it is exhibited today. She returned to Birmingham to work in her family business, Sunnyland Refining Company which became one of the ten largest margarine manufactures in the nation. She served on several boards, including St. Vincent's Hospital, and was an astute investor. Miss Kidd was a generous philanthropist who was an important benefactor for St. Vincent's, the UAB Medical Center, the Birmingham Museum of Arts and other organizations. She was a long time member of the National Society, Colonial Dames of America, and Old Elyton Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She was also a member of Mountain Brook Club and The Club. She was especially fond of the color pink which she wore frequently, and even had custom-cut pink rugs made to fit rooms for special use from time to time on occasions of elegant gatherings and celebrations. She spent a good deal of time in Arizona where she once owned a residence, and she made many trips to France and places abroad, sometimes flying on the Concorde. She loved beautiful things and collected many exquisite items. Most of all, she will be remembered for her love and generosity to family and friends, as well as to the Birmingham community, coupled with a disciplined and businesslike approach in the management of her affairs. Following a private burial, a memorial service will be held at the Highlands United Methodist Church at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 27, 2012. The family will receive friends at the Church following the service. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions be made in her memory to Highlands United Methodist Church, 1045 20th Street South, Birmingham, AL 35205, Birmingham Museum of Art, 2000 8th Avenue North, Birmingham, AL 35203 or the Alabama Ballet, 2726 1st Avenue South, Birmingham, AL 35233. Services are under the direction of Ridout's Valley Chapel. >

A Terrible Response to the Internet Tax Mess
By Howard Gleckman :: March 18th, 2014
Ten months ago the Senate overwhelmingly passed legislation aimed at sorting out the mess over online sales taxes, which consumers owe but states rarely collect. Now, House GOP leaders are floating what they call a compromise: Set national rules for sales tax collection based on the location of the seller, not the buyer. It is […]

The Supreme Court Opens The Door to Sales Tax Collections by Online Sellers
By Howard Gleckman :: December 3rd, 2013
Yesterday, by doing nothing, the U.S. Supreme Court took a giant step towards ending the decades-long dispute over whether states can require online retailers to collect sales taxes. In effect, the High Court ruled that, absent congressional action, states have broad authority to require Internet sellers to collect those levies just as their Main Street […]

A Fix on the Horizon for the Online Sales Tax Mess
By Howard Gleckman :: November 17th, 2011
A bipartisan group of 10 U.S. senators would allow states to require online retailers to collect sales taxes on all purchases, as long as the states first agree to simplify their sales tax rules. And, remarkably, their idea has broad support in the business community and may actually pass. The effort, led by senators Mike […]

INDIANAPOLIS -- With 30 losses in the previous two seasons, the Detroit Lions are willing to consider any option available to get things turned around. Those options include trading the No. 2 pick in the draft and making a run at LaDainian Tomlinson.
"We're open to just about everything," Detroit coach Jim Schwartz said Thursday at the NFL scouting combine. "Whether you keep the second pick or whether you trade down, it doesn't change what you have to do -- that's make good decisions in the draft. There are blue-chip players available a lot of different spots in the draft."
The Lions, who were just 2-14 last year after going 0-16 in 2008, need to upgrade their running game. Detroit ranked 24th in the league with 101 yards per game. So Schwartz didn't rule out picking up Tomlinson, the longtime San Diego Chargers back who was released Monday after a nine-year run in which he became one of the greatest running backs in NFL history.
"We'll look at every way we can to improve the team," Schwartz said. "I don't think we make any decisions and just blanket say, 'No, we're not interested.' Every player has something they can bring and if they can help us win, we'll look at just about everything. I have a tremendous amount of respect for him."

Busy Streets
After coming from the laid back atmosphere of car-less Caye Caulker, the streets of San Pedro were a bit of a shock. The traffic here on the narrowish streets consisted of a varied mixture of large trucks, cars, golf carts (electric and gas), bicycles and pedestrians (since there were not always sidewalks). Some of the streets were one-way, so there was no 'safe' side to walk, facing the traffic, in those cases - and those quiet bicycles and electric golf carts can easily sneak up behind you!
Basically, you had to keep your wits about you when walking around in San Pedro - it was not just a leisurely stroll taking in the sights! Although the streets were made of sand as on Caye Caulker, there is no comparison as to which is the relaxing place in which to vacation!

Homeless dogs!!
There are dogs EVERYWHERE!! None of them seemed dangerous or mean. I gave this little guy a couple of crackers and he followed me back to our cabana and slept in front of the door. So - if you feed the dogs, be prepared to have a companion for the length of your stay!
- Beaches
Okay, I normally don't complain about mosquitos since I'm an island girl, but the mosquitos here were horrible. I came prepared for them with Off repelent with a high dose of deet, but even though I applied the Off these pesky annoying mosquitos seemed to love my blood. I was bitten in one location at least 6 times from what appared to be the same mosquito, yikes! They sure do itch.
Aaron, one of our guides, was telling us that they don't call Belize the Mosquito Coast for nothing and that the repellent is more like a salad dressing.
Still, I would recommend that you take precautions and apply the wonderful smelling scent of Off Mosquito repellent so you won't be eaten alive and walk away with only a few "battle scares"
- Arts and Culture
Water Sports - Be informed
We were sitting on a lounge chair in the beach enjoying a few frozen drinks when we noticed two young couples getting instructions on how to use the hobie cat. The guys seemed to pay very little attention, let alone the ladies, who were too busy applying sun screen and adjusting their suits. After the intructions given the two pair of couples sailed away on the hobie cat. We noticed a few minutes later that they seemed to be pretty far beyond the barrier reef.
Miriam mentioned that it looked like fun and if I wanted to go out but that I'd have to be the "captain". I looked around at the beautiful white sand, the sun shining and decided I rather enjoy a few hours of sunning and frozen drinks then working on staying aflot on the hobie cat.
At this moment, which was about an hour after the couples set sail, we spotted a fishing boat hauling them back in. Apparently they didn't adhere or remember the instructions and were swept way out beyond the barrier and couldn't get back. They had to wave a boat passing by who tugged them back to shore.
Lesson learned here "Definitely make sure you know what you are doing before setting out on a potentialy dangerous journey"
I'm glad we decided to just enjoy the sun!

Sewage treatment?
Another problem with the beach on Ambergris is that there are a number of docks along the beach with small buildings that have toilets. Guess where the toilet waste goes. Discreet signs ask you not to flush the toilet paper. I also question the sewage treatment plan throughout the island. I don't know and probably don't want to know what if anything is done. . . Let's just say the only time we got in the water it was well off shore.

Bring 100% DEET/Don't Skimp on the Sunblock
The misquitos can be bad if the wind is calm. We brought what I thought was the best spray in the world (made by Sawyer). At first I thought it wasn't working (because I kept getting bitten) until I realized I had 1/8th the bites that others did. I think you will be bite free if you go with 100% DEET.
For sunblock, regardless of your skin type, get the strongest stuff that you can get and don't skimp by getting some discount brand. When you snorkle, you will spend up to six hours exposed to direct sun. Don't mess around.

Sea Grass on the beach
I wasn't all that impressed with the beaches on Ambergris. One big problem throughout Belize is that sea grass grows everywhere in the shallows. It washes up on the beach and piles up along the shore. Most resorts rake it up every day, but not everybody does. It attracts flies and it smells. It also fouls the water and makes swimming an unattractive proposition. The up side of the sea grass is it attracts manatees. We ddn't see any on Ambergris, but it was a big attraction at Hopkins on the mainland.

Just be careful!
I got mugged in Ambergris!
The mugger snatched my brand new digital Canon camera and few Belizean dollars that were inside the camera case. Luckily I didn't get hurt and luckily I had just taken out the hotel keys and golf cart keys from the camera case -just minutes before it happened!
The incident occurred at around 11:30pm - 12am at the beginning of Front Street, there is a passage between the school and the Sun Breeze Hotel, it has bright lights, not a dark alley! We were coming back from a place called Wet Willies on the beach, my husband and I got separated for about a minute, when a tall man in a bicycle came from behind me and snatch my camera. I had the camera across my shoulders, luckily the camera strap broke easily so I didn't get hurt, I say luckily because otherwise I would probably have a cut or a nasty bruise around my neck or there would have been a struggle in which case God only knows what would have happened to me. I am also thankful that he just wanted my camera and nothing else…
Stupidly, I run after the assailant screaming for people to stop him, a man in a taxi gave chase, but the criminal cut through the airport field and simply vanished into the dark. A police pickup truck showed up about 20 minutes later (despite the fact that the police station is about 15 minutes on foot), they took down my statement and left. The next day I went to the police station to get a report for insurance purposes, but there was no record of the incident, no one at the station had any information about the case. To make the story short, after an "officer" wrote down, by hand, all the information again, I asked for a copy of the report, he told me "you have to apply for one, it cost $12", so I say OK, fine, he says "it will take a couple of days", I explained that I was leaving that same afternoon and I asked him again if he could just give me a photocopy of the "informal report", to wish he said that he needed to go to my hotel and search my room, I asked why? The incident didn't happen in the hotel. To this I got no reply, so I left, I have travelled extensively around Latin America (I am Latin-American myself), and I know VERY WELL how things work with the so called "police force", and I was not going to give this so called "police officer" any money (bribery), I was not going to be robbed twice in Belize!
When I told the hotel staff and also the person from the golf cart company what had happen, sadly their reply was "oh yes, this happens all the time, just last week a tourist was robbed in front of the Yacht Club and another one near Ramon's Village". An airport employee also told us that "two weeks ago another tourist was stabbed and robbed at the same place where you got mugged. The police did nothing about it".
Bottom line, be VERY careful in Ambergris, if you get mugged, don't bother going to the police, they are useless, to say the least! Call your embassy instead.
I visited Ambergris for the first time in 2002, and I can tell you that the Ambergris of today is not the same from back then. Things have changed; there is much crime, in many cases violent. Read through few websites, saddly you will see that my case was not an isolated one. I am so sad about this wave of crimes, Ambergris used to be such an amazing, quiet place...

San Pedro at Carnival time
We were in San Pedro /Caye Ambergris in early February and its tradition for the kids to run wild covering each other in paint, eggs and flour. It gets everywhere and some locals described it as 'licenced vandalism'. It lasts for 3 days--the first two days, the kids seemed to largely ignore adults and tourists (though there were around 200 of them throwing paint all over the beach) but we were told that the 3rd day is more of a free for all. We decided to leave at that point and went back to Caye Caulker which doesnt have this tradition!

Ambergris is a very nice place, as I go there often as I own a home there ( north island) when I read some of the "warnings" above, I wonder if people have evert traveled outside the USA as much of what has been stated could apply to almost anywhere, even in the US.
Is there crime there? Yes, just like everywhere else, don't be studied and do things that you normally wouldn't do in any large city in the USA.
Bugs?, yes at certain time of the year, and more so if you are on the Lagoon side of the island. Bring 100% DEET, and accept nothing less and you will not have any issue.
Sea Grass? yes, in most places because of the reef so close to the shore, you don't have as much wave action, that is just part of having a beautiful reef so close by. also there are plenty of places to swim on the island that the sea grass has been cleared. most areas keep it because it helps prevent erosion.
Ambergris is a great destination for singles and families as it safe, fun and a friendly culture (and easy) to get around in. Just like anywhere else, don't leave your common sense at home.

Genetics highlights relationships between biological systems, and as the number of defined osteoarthritis susceptibility alleles increases, there is the natural tendency to assess whether the alleles influence other musculoskeletal phenotypes. That has proven to be the case for the GDF5 polymorphism rs143383, a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis and several other common conditions, including lumbar-disc degeneration and developmental dysplasia of the hip. Another interesting example has recently emerged in the repeat polymorphism of the asporin gene, ASPN, which is also associated with these three phenotypes. Such discoveries increase our understanding of shared disease etiology but also emphasize the complexity of common genetic risk.
Pleiotropy refers to the capacity of a DNA mutation to have an effect on many biological systems and is a consequence of the fact that, during life, gene products are typically expressed, as so-called spatial and temporal effects, in a variety of cell types at a number of different times. Pleiotropy of common alleles is an expected feature of human diseases that have a major genetic component and manifests as an allele associated with several different phenotypes. The musculoskeletal system is no exception and in the previous issue of Arthritis Research & Therapy Shi and colleagues [1] brought another example to our attention. In their study of Han Chinese, the investigators reported an association of the D-repeat polymorphism of the asporin gene, ASPN, with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). This polymorphism had originally shown an association with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and subsequently with lumbar-disc degeneration (LDD), also in Asian cohorts [2, 3].
Asporin is an extracellular matrix (ECM) macromolecule belonging to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) protein family. SLRP family members are able to bind other structural components of the ECM, such as collagen, as well as growth factors that temporarily reside in the ECM, such as members of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily. Asporin is present in a number of tissues, including cartilage, and the D-repeat polymorphism of ASPN resides within exon 2 of the gene. It gets its name from the fact that it is a triplet repeat coding for a polymorphic stretch of residues of aspartic acid (D is the one-letter code for this particular amino acid). Depending on the ethnic group, the repeat has up to 12 alleles encoding 8 to 19 D residues.
In the original OA association study, it was reported that the allele coding for 14 D-repeats (D14) was a risk allele for knee OA [2]. This was also the case for LDD [3] and is the case in the recent DDH study [1]. Furthermore, the D13 allele was found to be protective for knee OA, something also observed for DDH. OA and LDD can be viewed as having similar etiological routes, both of which involve degeneration of cartilage, albeit of different types; that of OA is hyaline and that of LDD is fibrocartilage. They are also diseases associated with aging. However, DDH is not associated with aging but is instead congenital, nor is it a degenerative disease but instead involves the displacement of the proximal femur from the acetabulum.
What is particularly intriguing, therefore, is how the same alleles at the ASPN D-repeat contribute to phenotypes as different as OA/LDD and DDH. Functional studies have suggested that asporin attenuates TGF-β signaling and that the extent of the attenuation is influenced by the number of D-repeats [2, 4, 5]. Perhaps, therefore, the D-repeat genotype, with its ability to alter the length of the run of aspartic acids, combined with expected differences in the expression levels of the various members of the TGF-β superfamily during development and in mature tissues, influences which skeletal sites are affected and which phenotypes result.
The reality will obviously be far more complex than this. For example, being influenced by genotypes at other loci and by non-genetic factors, the association of the D-repeat with OA, LDD, and DDH is far from penetrant. This is apparent when one recalls that, although the D-repeat can have an impact on knee OA in Asians, it does not contribute to knee OA in Europeans: genetic or non-genetic factors must account for this ethnic difference [6]. Furthermore, the D-repeat is associated with an aberrant hip shape that results in DDH in the young but is not associated with an increased risk of hip OA in older patients; in the latter, the effect on hip OA is presumably a temporal one.
Another example in the literature of pleiotropy of an OA locus is the single-nucleotide polymorphism rs143383, which is located in the 5' untranslated region of GDF5. This gene codes for the TGF-β superfamily member growth and differentiation factor 5. Like the ASPN D-repeat, rs143383 was first reported to be associated with increased risk of large-joint OA, principally of the knee [7]. rs143383 was then shown to be associated with other joint-related disease phenotypes, including DDH and LDD [8–10]. There are, therefore, striking similarities between the D-repeat and rs143383 associations; the obvious similarity is that when it comes to lower-limb OA, both variants are particularly relevant to knee disease, but when it comes to early development, the hip is the main repository of the genetic effect. We shall have to wait for the discovery of additional susceptibility alleles to assess whether this shared genetic risk between OA, LDD, and DDH is more widespread or whether it is restricted to members of the TGF-β signaling pathway. One thing that we can be certain of is that late-onset musculoskeletal diseases can inform our understanding of developmental conditions, and vice versa.

Asus Transformer AiO pictures and hands-on
When Jonney Shih first unveiled the Transformer AiO on stage during the Asus press conference at Computex in Taipei most of the collected media, including Pocket-lint, weren't really that impressed by the rather awkward and cheap-looking system that was hidden underneath a dark cloth. This quickly changed when the Asus chairman pulled the 18.4-inch screen out if its dock.
The Transformer AiO is something of an ugly duckling, because the system doesn't really impress in terms of looks as a desktop PC and to call it chunky in tablet mode is an understatement.
As you can see from the pictures, it also has a rather big bulge around the back as well, but this is for a good reason.
Inside that bulge is a discrete graphics card from Nvidia - so in other words you'll be able to play games as well as watch HD video content and what not on the Transformer AiO.
It also sports a built-in TV-tuner and what we think is an HDMI input, so you could in theory connect your console to the Transformer AiO, take the display and your wireless console controller with you and sit out in the garden and play games.
The tablet part sports a micro HDMI port, as well as a microSD card slot and what should be a USB host port, plus a headphone jack. In addition to the already mentioned ports, the main unit has four USB 3.0 ports, a memory card slot and a pair of audio jacks on the left-hand side, a network port around the back and an optical drive and a USB 2.0 port on the right-hand side.
We can see this being a popular product with families, just as long as it hits a reasonable price point. But one thing it isn't, is a tablet.
As a portable display that can be used around the house it's not a bad concept, but we really can't see anyone going for this over a regular tablet, because the tablet part is simply too big and unwieldy.
It's also far less impressive than some other AiO's, but its ability to boot into Android might have some appeal and this is clearly a product for those who have many different needs that don't fit into any current device on the market.

Rep. Benjamin Benaldo and Daiana Menezes. File photo
MANILA, Philippines -- Brazilian model and host Daiana Menezes is now engaged to Rep. Jose Benjamin "Benjo" Benaldo of Cagayan de Oro.
Menezes revealed the engagement in an interview with "KrisTV" on Thursday.
"Engaged kami but we call ourselves 'asawa' na," the Brazilian beauty said, adding that they might get married next year.
According to Menezes, she met the congressman only last January.
"Parang ang bilis, hindi ba?" Menezes told host Kris Aquino.
She said the lawmaker proposed to her under the Eiffel Tower in Paris. After the proposal they went to Brazil, where Benaldo meet Menezes' parents.
Before Benaldo, the Brazilian was previously engaged to TV director GB Sampedro before their controversial break up last year.

Why (Almost) No One In Myanmar Wanted My Money
When you arrive in Myanmar, you can see how eager the people are to do business. At the airport in Yangon, new signs in English welcome tourists. A guy in a booth offers to rent me a local cellphone — and he's glad to take U.S. dollars. But when I pull out my money, he shakes his head."I'm sorry," he says.He points to the crease mark in the middle of the $20 bill. No creases allowed.So I pull out another, which he rejects because it's a little bit faded, and a third, which he doesn't want because of a tiny tear, and a fourth, which he calls "not very acceptable" because of a little ink spot.Myanmar, also known as Burma, was largely closed to the world for decades. It's just getting used to the business of international currency exchange. And, like other countries that have gone through economic turmoil (Russia, Iraq, Argentina), Myanmar wants U.S. dollars to look like they just rolled off the presses.When I start to ask people in Myanmar, they laugh and say they know it's crazy. But they've learned in their history that the last thing you can trust is an old piece of money.You've probably heard about the human rights abuses under the former dictatorship in Burma. But the old government also used to screw with the money all the time. Officials would suddenly announce that certain denominations of the local currency were worthless. It would be like waking up to find that the $100 bill was worthless.The old socialist government was worried that some people were getting rich, Zeya Thu, an editor with The Voice, told me. So without warning, they would take the largest denominations out of circulation.When it happened in 1987, Zeya's parents were getting ready for retirement. They had just cashed out their life savings to buy a plot of land. They were in the room with the seller, about to buy the land, and the government came on the radio and said the bills were worthless.The country's leader created new bills overnight in denominations that were multiples of nine — his lucky number. Zeya says the math of adding and subtracting 45s would give people headaches.So people started to sock away their extra money in U.S. currency. And when your life savings is a few U.S. $100 bills, you want to keep them pristine. Like other people in Myanmar, my translator kept his U.S. bills pressed flat in the pages of a book. Like baseball card collectors, people in Myanmar want their bills in mint condition.The banks in Myanmar could have solved this problem by accepting old U.S. currency. But for a long time they were cut off from U.S. banks by sanctions, so they didn't want the old bills, either.As a result, visitors to Myanmar have to bring bills so crisp you can cut tomatoes with them. And bills that are less than perfect end up on the black market. I took my $20 bill with a tiny ink spot on it to a black-market money changer. He gave me $17.75 for it.

Figurine for Technical Drawing
Added Apr 3, 2008
By burdastyle
New York, New Yo...
This How-To will teach you how to use a technical croqui for drawing your flats. "Croqui" is French for sketch, and in the fashion realm 'croqui' refers to the female figure we draw clothes over. There are longer, thinner croquis used for fashion illustration, but for the purposes of this How-To we are using a croqui with more realistic proportions because we are drawing 'flats'. Flats are technical, showing each detail of the garment: seamlines, zippers, buttons, darts, topstitching, etc.

Best Restaurant Décor (2012)
Rosa Mexicano
Rosa's outdoor tables sit by lily-pad ponds on the black-and-white stone mosaic of Lincoln Road's trendiest block — right at the base of the Herzog & de Meuron-designed building, SoBe's newest landmark. The soaring 3,500-square-foot indoor space (with 108 seats inside) is a dazzling realm melding the spirits of Mexico and South Beach. Both cultures, after all, exude a fondness for bright colors and a live-free-or-die attitude. No, wait, that's not Mexico, but New Hampshire in the fall. Take that, Zapata. The décor is actually inspired by Mexico's acclaimed architect Ricardo Legorreta, and it practically shouts its effulgent glee. During the day, natural light streaming luminously through floor-to-ceiling windows reflects off tall blue-glass columns and a spectacular travertine bar. At night, the room glows with vivid lighting and backlighting of various hues, as well as textured stone waterfalls displaying video of Acapulco cliff divers midflight — or sometimes of butterflies. Yet the potpourri of tinctures doesn't lapse into gaudiness, but is balanced by dark wood floors and a sleek, seriously handsome design. Kudos to Seed Design Studio in New York for understanding Mexico and South Beach so well.

As you can guess, his class made applesauce. I love how he tried to write it but his S's are all backwards and he has no concept of spacing between words. Thank goodness for the translation at the bottom or I might never have figured out why all the letters were up there.

Volume 2014, Issue 8
Making your wedding photo book even more beautiful: An interview with professional wedding photographerClaire Cordier
An important figure in the Blurb universe is the professional wedding photographer, which is why we reached out to one of our favorites, UK-based Claire Cordier of House of Clicks. She's had years of experience making lovely wedding photo albums with our creative publishing platform and was kind enough to talk to us about her book-making process. She also shared some tips and tricks that will help every photographer (and bride and groom) make their wedding books look their best.
What made you decide to add photo books to your wedding photography packages?
I thought it would be a nice extra to add to my packages as it's a way all the best images from the day can be stored in one place. It's a keepsake to show family for years to come.
What do you think couples are looking for in a great wedding book? Are they very individual or do you find themes and patterns?
I like to think that the couples are looking for a story of their day without words, so they can hand someone the book and say, "This was my wedding day" and the viewer gets a good feel of what their day was like—as if they were there themselves.
What makes a great wedding book cover?
Of course this depends on the size of book you are creating, so choose something that can fit without cutting off crucial parts of the image. There also needs to be some space to fit the title, so make sure there's an area of the photo that is not busy and that would be distracting if text was placed over the top.
Obviously you're all about photography, but can you tell us how you use words in a wedding book? What's a good ratio of photo to text?
I don't like to include a lot of text within the wedding books I create. If the couple is okay with it, I like to include a quote about marriage or love at the very start of the book and that's all the text I would include (if they were happy to do so). Other photographers might like to include more text than this. We all have our own way of doing things, but this just doesn't suit my style.
What's a good number of photos to include in a wedding book? Is there an ideal ratio of photos to pages?
I will always suggest that my couples choose around 40–50 images. With experience I have learnt that this can be a hard thing to ask when you have shot photos from bridal preparations to the first dance, as that is a LOT of photos to choose from!
So I ask my couples to choose all of their favorites and we go from there. I show them examples of how the book would look if I used the majority of the images they'd chosen and then they decide if the book looks too busy. Some people love it, some not so much, and I've even had couples that prefer just one image per page for the whole book—it really does vary from book to book. Some photographers prefer to stick to a particular number, but I'm happy to let the couples decide. I understand this can make the whole process a little longer, but as long as my couples are aware of this and are happy to work with me on creating their perfect book, then this is how I like to work.
As for images per page, I like to mix it up quite a lot within the book. For the formal shots, I have started using just the vertical images and filling a whole double-page spread with them. That could be anything up to 12 images. These are the type of images people feel they have to shoot at a wedding, even though they might not necessarily want to print them all. So having them across a double page is a good way to include them (and makes all that time shooting them worthwhile) as this is usually the most time-consuming part of any wedding. Most other images are split two to four to a page with all the special images and shots of the bride and groom alone together and enlarged to a whole page by themselves (or one to two to a page), as I find this emphasizes the wow factor of those images.
Black and white vs. color—is it personal choice or is color best for certain types of shots?
I like to include a mix of both. Black and white is great for those special moments as it has a way of evoking emotion and I find that it can keep people interested and wanting to turn to the next page. However, it is personal preference—some couples are happy for me to decide what I think looks best in black and white and place them into the book, whereas others will choose their own favorites. I've even had a few couples that decided black and white just wasn't for them and had their whole book printed in color.
When you're creating layouts, do you like to make your own or go with the ones we provide—or a combination of both?
I definitely like to use a combination of both, I like the book to look different and I like having the opportunity to custom create layouts— it allows me to stand out from the rest and apply my style into the book. There are some images I like to extend onto the next page a little, so for these I will create my own template. Same for the formal shots that I fill a whole double-page spread with.
What are the key shots to include in a wedding album?
For me, I leave this up to the couples to decide, as it's their book. They know what's important to them, but there are of course key shots everyone will choose, such as walking down the aisle, exchanging the rings, first kiss, first dance, and, of course, the portraits of the bride and groom.
If you were putting together your own wedding book, what would be the top four things you'd want to have absolutely perfect?
Design, design, design!
I like a lot of white space and for the images to be arranged in an unexpected way—I like to be different!
A must is that the book should flow nicely by telling a story of the day.
I do love a quote so it would be nice to incorporate some of these about love and marriage and possibly things the couple have said to one another—as long as it doesn't draw your attention away from the photos too much.

This is a somewhat weird board-like game based on TV show Really. You're a bride and there's an ex who plays against you. You both throw a dice and move your counter the number of spots the die shows. Like in other board games, certain squares will have certain functions, like moving you forward or backwards or doing things like these.

Is Sandy Evidence of a Rise in 'Superstorms' Caused by Climate Change?
Politicians from the governor of New York to former President Clinton are pointing to Hurricane Sandy as proof of global warming. But does science agree?
Madeleine explores that question with Mark Jackson, a top meteorologist for the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA, and Dr. Jerry Schubel of the Aquarium of the Pacific.
