will there be a panasonic version of the same lens later on?
Panasonic adds Leica 15mm F1.7 lens to Micro Four Thirds stable
Panasonic quietly announced the development of a Leica DG SUMMILUX 15mm (30mm equiv.) F1.7 lens, which the company says will be an ideal companion to the DMC-GM1 also released today. Details are scarce at this point, but the lens will have a manual aperture ring and will ship sometime next year. Also coming in 2014 are a Leica DG NOCTICRON 42.5mm F1.2 lens, as well as a budget-friendly Lumix G 35-100mm.
Commercialization of LEICA DG SUMMILUX 15mm / F1.7 ASPH.
Digital Interchangeable Lens for Micro Four Thirds System
Panasonic is announcing a commercialization of new digital interchangeable lens LEICA DG SUMMILUX 15mm / F1.7 ASPH. complying Micro Four Thirds System standard*.
The LEICA DG SUMMILUX 15mm / F1.7 ASPH. is an excellent 15mm single focal length lens of F1.7 clearing LEICA's stringent standard. It also features sophisticated exterior that matches the stylish design of the world's smallest** LUMIX GM*** digital single lens mirrorless (DSLM) camera.
In addition to "LEICA DG SUMMILUX 25mm / F1.4 ASPH." and "LEICA DG MACRO-ELMARIT 45mm / F2.8 ASPH. / MEGA O.I.S." which are already released to the market, Panasonic has also announced product commercialization of LEICA DG NOCTICRON 42.5mm / F1.2 to enhance the lineup of LEICA digital interchangeable lens, attracting professional photographers worldwide.
In the meanwhile, Panasonic is further expanding the range of LUMIX G digital interchangeable lens with the development of new LUMIX G VARIO telephoto zoom lens of 35-100mm in stylish, compact design that also matches the LUMIX GM camera.
* Details of the product specifications, the date of release and the price are under study.
** For a body of digital interchangeable lens camera, as of October 17, 2013, according to research by Panasonic.
*** Released on October 17, 2013.

Anyone get the list price yet?
Panasonic didn't even launch the lens yet. Is it so hard to read the text above?
"Panasonic adds Leica 15mm F1.7 lens"
No, it just PROMISES "15mm F1.7 lens", just like it promised 150/2.8 lens. ;)
It seems Panasonic is about spinning their wheels and releasing and releasing standard zooms again and again and again... 14-45, 14-42, 14-42PZ, 14-42 II, 12-32... more standard zooms than years of the system... and the same story with slow teles - 45-200, 45-175, 45-150, 35-100 (slow one). 20/1.7 II, which is really 20/1.7 in a new body, is not exactly innovation either but wasted somebody's engineering and production resources, while proper (not flaring) f/2.8 UWA zoom is nowhere to be found, and essential 12-35/35-100 f/2.8 pair is overpriced beyond any semblance of reason.
You have a good point. There are too many repetition of the same thing over the last four years.
When they introduced the GF1, the 14-45mm was an excellent standard zoom lens with good optics and a metal mount. Then they decided to do a cost-down version, the 14-42mm, to go for the low-end market with the GF3 and G3. The 14-42 PZ was made to cater more for video followed by a smaller size 14-42mm. Now, they are making the 12-32mm which should have been the one that followed the 14-45mm. I am pretty sure it will have a plastic mount. Hopefully the optics are acceptable and as good as the 14-45mm.
With all this flip-flops, it is not surprising professional photographers can't take the micro 4/3 system too seriously despite its convenient size. They are making them to cater for the novice market too much. I really wish they can make a higher end product. I am sure they can but they are just not doing it.
The recent Oly 12-40mm f/2.8 is getting there but its not from Panasonic. Optically, this lens is above the rest and is as close as one can expect to a Zeiss lens. It has a full metal body with metal mount. It has good neutral colour rendition and has much sharper edges compared to the Lumix 12-35mm f/2.8. Something to look forward too.
Its not cheap but that's OK. You get what you pay for. However, its quite big, definitely too big for the GM1.
> as close as one can expect to a Zeiss lens
I don't think Oly is that bad. it's really an assault to Oly, those who work hard to design and make lenses, by calling their products "Zeiss." same for Sony, Pana, Cosina, Sigma, Tomioka, ...
It does NOT make sense. It would have made a LOT of sense to make a 15 mm 1.4 lense or even 1.2 then you could get some ff like wideangle feel.
Why go for a 15 mm. 1.7 when there is a 17 1.8 out there. Is it to difficult with a 1.4 version ? I would LOVE that lense
> Is it to difficult with a 1.4 version ?
not at all.
it should be easy to make a budget f/1.0 (say 400 US) but may need good design and make for an f/0.72 with good borders/corners to compete with new full-frame f/1.4 lenses (like Sigma 35/1.4).
look a f 1.2 or even 1.4 would be great, a 1.2 of high quality would be a game changer
It is only a matter of time until Olympus comes with a set of f/1.2 or f/1.4 primes to complement that new PRO zoom.
The f/1.7 and f/1.8 primes are quite nice because of their tiny size. However, now it's clear that Olympus also wants to take the system in a pro direction, so I think we can expect faster/larger primes soon.
And to the jackass whining about equivalent lens prices etc... I have the fully equivalent Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 and Canon 40mm f/2.8 (on FF). The Panasonic takes far better pictures. A lens is not only defined by its specs. Image character is everything. This is why people pay thousands for Leica and Zeiss lenses rather than cheap Canon and Nikon lenses. You can't put everything in equivalences. If you would have touched one of these lenses just ONCE in your life you wouldn't be spreading this nonsense on the internet!
1.7 is plenty fast for a 15mm lens on a half frame camera. This is not a portrait lens, like the 25 1.4. This focal length is more for street photography, where more dof is desired for those spontainiou situations, and most experienced photographers will probably shoot the majority of their pictures stopped down to at least f/4 with this lens.
> > Is it to difficult with a 1.4 version ?
> not at all.
> it should be easy to make a budget f/1.0 (say
And you know this because you've designed how many lenses, exactly?
@Sir Nick: 25mm lens is not portrait, 25mm is standard. 45 or 50 is portrait. 25mm is for street photography, although 15mm can also be handy, but is more for landscape/architecture etc. I think 1.7 on 15mm might be disappointing amount of dof control, like 12mm f2 has that as well. I don't know why the majority of users would stop down this lens most of the time, to have high dof?
I think it is not so interesting for dof control specifically, but more for making images in low light, with high shutterspeed, with low iso and also with good sharpness at that big aperture setting. High iso isn't a big issue anymore nowadays with high iso performance, but lowering iso is allways better.
The 2,5/14 and the 1,7/20 are both missing OIS..this new lens too!
IMO there should be a good stabilization also for wide angles like these, for photo AND for video. To compete with good and fast compacts like sony rx100.
Or just use them on an Oly body. :)
With the exception of this tiny GM1, I think a lot of future Panasonic m4/3 bodies are going to offer in-body stabilization like the GX7. So as we move forward, it's going to be a moot point.
And, obviously, Olympus already offers in-body stabilization in all their m4/3 bodies.
I've just read that the GX-7 has in-body stabilization ONLY for photo NOT for video. So it seems to be one more lens from pana best suitable for olympus om-d...
The Manual aperture ring is a nice touch, that pretty much would eliminate my need to hit the menus or need dials on the GM1 for most of my travel shooting :) I suspect, though, that this lens plus the GM1 isn't going to be terribly competitive on price!
I used to think an aperture ring on the lens and a shutter dial on the camera would be perfect, then there comes an iFn button from Samsung.
Panny needs high end primes to go with the GH4 (4K camera).
4k is only 10MP, not exactly taxing sensors...
they need high end lenses anyway.
but their current policy is not to make any.
12-35 and 35-100 are high end.
high-end in m4/3"'s standard maybe.
Which means high end.
If it were a weather sealed version to go with the top tier bodies it would offer something new, but lens at f/1.7,1.8, and 2.5 seems redundant notto mention the 20mm Pany and 19mm sigma offerings. No doubt it will be superb but add something that PP cannot like weather sealing.
Honestly it seems like a nice lens, but created for an already crowded focal length range. They should have gone for something wider or longer to make it more interesting. I mean are there really many m43 shooters that were dying for a fast wide prime that didn't already buy one of the 12, 14 or 17mm options?
I would buy one if the optics are excellent. Currently, the 14mm and 17mm (both the f2.8 and the f1.8 version) are optically not the best. Even the 12mm needs in-camera correction for barrel distortion, CA etc.
However, the 45mm, 75mm and 20mm are excellent.
When used with the three lenses above, it would make an excellent little system for travel photography.
75 > 45 > 20
the 20/1.7 isn't a so good lens (good for 4/3" maybe).
Yabokkie: Not so good in what way? Love mine.
> Not so good in what way?
not so good as a lens, what else will you expect?
20 1.7 produces superb images.
20 1.7 is a pretty decent lens, the sharpness at the centre of the frame is just superb. The edge resolution could be better, so is the distortion. What bothers the most is the focusing speed, which is kinda slow when compared with other lenses these days. Back in the good old days it's really hard to fault.
The 20mm 1.7 is a great lens. Anyone who says otherwise has no idea what they are talking about.
m4/3 sure has a nice little system going.
Great news for everyone who are using Micro Four Thirds system! There is a need for a wide-angle high quality prime lens, and I think that 15mm f/1.7 would nicely compliment two other Leica's MFT lenses: 25mm f/1.4 and 42.5mm f/1.2.
25/1.4 is quite below average
compared with 50/1.4 lenses stopped down to f/2.8.
yabokkie: Not what I hear. Can you be more specific?
My 25/1.4 has a lot better image quality that the full frame camera with 50mm 1/1.4 lens that is left at home... Not to mention that Bokeh can be pretty ugly when stopped down to f/2.8 versus wide open on the 25mm. It is a great 'standard' lens.
Do you take photos or just police MFT equivalence :)
Apparently, @yabokkie likes to make vague and unsubstantiated criticisms of m4/3 lenses and then when challenged to either stay silent or reiterate without elaboration ... it must be a calling :-)
Yabokkie, are you a cross-dresser? It's ok if you are, but it just doesn't work with lenses.
But why 15mm? Why not 12? Or at least 14? Those would make more sense to me than a 30mm equivalent.
My bet is that marketing department had decided it would not be cost effective enough.
Its meant as a tool to take pictures, not specs. On a field review, you ought not to be bothered that its 15mm and not 14mm.
Panasonic already makes a 14mm pancake prime. It's smaller than this new 15mm, albeit not as fast (aperture).
I personally think something between 17 and 25mm would be more useful for everyday shooting.
as you just observed about the 14mm, Panasonic already makes a lens that fits that range, its the 20mm ;-)
Another possibility: If you've noticed that Panasonic G cams have 3:2 screens instead of 4:3 ones which would get the most out of the 4:3 sensor, it's not too hard to guess they expect you to shoot 3:2. And by cropping a 15mm into 3:2, you'll have something closer to 35mm than expected :D
A much welcome addition to Micro 4/3 stable of lenses.
This would make an excellent companion to the Lumix GM1 or even my aging Lumix GF1.
Looking forward to try out this lens. Just hoping they will keep the price affordable.
At the way things are going, one shouldn't be surprise that Leica may just introduce a Leica version of the GM1 with this lens.
Kinda makes me sad to see the Summilux name cheapened like this. I'm sure this is a great lens for what it is, but it is a Summilux in name only.
In Leica lore the Summilux has always been reserved for high-end lenses with an f/1.4 aperture. If anything this lens garners the Summicron or more fittingly, Summarit appellation.
it's good for Leica to make money from a rubbish name.
They could also have gone with Summarex, which were a little slower than the f/1.4 Summilux -- thus avoiding confusion with the much slower f/2.5 Summarit.
They could have come up with a new name like they did with the "Nocticron". What a godawful name.
They should call it the "Panalux".
Nice to see a Leica snob trying to rubbish a new Leica product, purely because it will be made to high standards by the Japanese. Do you think a Japanese lens is automatically bad? Do you think a German-made lens that is to the *same* standards will be the same price?
It is up to Leica to introduce new Leica lenses. And they have done so. Respect that, or diss Leica -- same thing. The Leica m43 lenses are entirely designed by Leica.
And they will out-perform the vast majority of classic Leica glass, that were good for 135 film but put them on a demanding 43 sensor and you will get big blur.
If these perform as well as I anticipate, the Leica name will not be cheapened, it will be expanded. Except to snobs.
The benchmark for these new Leicas needs to be the Zeiss Touit, with its top notch polymer frame and construction, top notch optics as a balanced optical product, and a high but appropriate price.
The Leica legend will then grow. I am pretty excited to see these announcements!
This will be an interesting addition to the line. In the 1970s, Pentax sold a 30 mm f/2.8 SMC lens for their 35 mm cameras, and in the early 2000s, they had a 31 mm f/1.8 "Limited" for autofocus 35 mm. So this new lens will be equivalent coverage on micro 4/3.
Just amazing how much vitriol is exhibited by people who haven't got a clue.
This looks like a fine lens, a nice wide complement to the Summilux 25 and other Panasonic Leica lens offerings. The Summilux 25 is what I'm currently using most of the time fitted to my OM-D E-M1.
I think a 150mm, a 300 f/4 or a105mm macro would be great but a 15mm lens??? We already have 12, 14, 17 and 20mm primes (and a 9-18mm zoom) – do we need one for every integer focal length? We even have a 15mm f/8 for those of us that want to stuff a GF/GM/GX/Pen into our pockets.
The 14mm is a budget lens. A premium 28 mm'ish equivalent lens is a welcome addition.
no OIS at this price ?
no interest sadly. Would love a fast wide prime with OIS to use with the Blackmagic pocket
Only 1 m4/3 prime has OIS that is currently available and this is much wider and brighter than that so it is to be expected. Besides, if you mount it on a GX7 or any Oly body, it'll be stabilized.
What price is it?
@flipmac: but not in video as of yet, and not on the rest of the excellent bodies. That's the point.
This lens is excellent for sure! It is "small" but not pancake style. It will be good additional lens for building a system for Lumix G series, but not for Lumix DMC-GM1. She needs dedicated smaller lens to make it more proportional against its tiny & sexy body. Still salute for Panasonic to keep update their lenses lines.
how do you know?
small and well? we wait from - nobody really needs this lens - for $ 800
were do u see the price?
Another lens option is always good. Those who do indoor, low-light, or street work will likely welcome this lens. For me, the 14mm f/2.5 is just fine, because I'm typically shooting it at around f/5.6. Personally, I would welcome an extra-wide prime (say, 9 or 10mm) more than 15mm.
Yes, 9 or 10mm (f/2.8 or thereabouts) would be very welcome.
a reasonably priced, small, good optical quality ultra wide prime is long overdue.
I've been waiting for it since the beginning of M43
No more waiting, Canon's 11-22mm STM fulfilled every wish. (it being a zoom, but with very good IQ)
If 11-22 on EOS fills your needs, why wouldn't the 9-18mm M.Zuiko, that has been out since pretty much the beginning. It's smaller than the 11-22 and the same FOV range.
Four reasons.
1. 11-22 has much better IQ
2. 11-22 has IS
3. 11-22 is much cheaper
4. The EOS M has much better IQ than any M43 camera in the same price range.
"4. The EOS M has much better IQ than any M43 camera in the same price range."
My friend, you are deluded. All expert assessment says "virtually identical IQ between m43 and APS-C". And if you think Canon has the best APS-C sensor.......
why the fuss, or hype - I use my awesome at GM1 20er pancake ;) I do not need this Pana-Leica really
Wait, you mean you're not going to use this lens? Quick, someone notify Panasonic that we no longer need this lens in their lineup so they can cancel it instead of wasting resources making it!!!
I love the 'well I don't need it, so why did they make it' comments.
es ist ein Hype, sonst nichts ;)
Has anyone noticed that this lens is thinner than all existing M43 lenses? It may seem longer than it is, just as the pancakes may seem flat because they are fat.
>> "equivalent to 30mm on a Micro Four Thirds body"
Shouldn't that be 30mm on a 35mm camera?
I think probably means equivalent to 30mm when used on a m43 body. It is poorly worded, though.
All correct. I've added the better wording though. Thanks.
Funnily enough they've just changed it to... "equivalent to 30mm when used on a Micro Four Thirds body" :)
Should be better now.
What happened to the 150mm f2.8. Is this lens no longer planned.
I don't need something in that focal range. But I do appreciate it has an aperture ring, hopefully something other modern lenses will have more often.
an aperture ring will mean more cost and less profit.
and if there were a ring,
I'd rather like it to be programmed, not for aperture only.
It's helpful to get an extra ring to control anything when used on an ultra-compact like the GM1. Maybe less relevant on a fuller body.
This lens, the pancake 12-32mm, the upcoming 42.5mm f/1.2 and the upcoming ultra-compact 35-100mm... Panasonic is on a roll. I can't wait to lay my hand on all these lenses.
BTW, this lens is roughly the equivalent of a 20mm f/2 on Nikon DX. I would have killed for that lens on DX.
wide angle has been a problem for APS DSLRs from day one.
the factor to D7100 = sqrt(23.6 * 15.6 / 17.3 / 13) = 1.28
You would have killed for a lens?
Whom? And why?
@brunobarolo. In the English language, we tend to use exaggerated remarks to make a point or to try and better describe our intensions. This is just one of many nuances you will learn as your grasp of the language increases.
there are a thousand reasons that the op wants to kill himself that's why he is still alive.
cannot decide which reason to go.
They already have a 14mm f/2.5 why are they making a 15mm f/1.7? A 12mm f/2.8 that's cheaper than Oly's 12/2 would have been better.
Its a higher spec'd lens and not constrained by using a pancake design. Being branded as "Leica", it will have minimal software correction applied. Its also a stop faster.
a 12/2 that's cheaper than Oly's 12/2 would have been better.
Olympus also have two 17mm, none of which is being an alternative product for the other.
Jogger is right IMO.
Another potential factor: if Leica is going to start putting the red dot on Panasonic m43 cameras (a rather vague news story floating around says Panasonic may soon start supplying Leica with ILCs in the $2000 range), they will need some Leica-branded kit lenses. This lens would be an obvious choice for a Leica-badged version of the GM1 and maybe GX7.
yabokkie just trying to be realistic here
No, the GM1 needs a fast streetshooting lens. The 20 mm 1,7 probably has a too big diameter to really look good on it. The Leica wil do better and I guess 30 mm is better allround than a 24 mm.
I wonder what that 35-100 mm is going to be....
With this body and these miniature lenes coming up it seems as if Panasonic is rapidly creating a system within a system...
Prob $1000 going by the other "Leica" lenses for m43.
Last time I checked
PL 1.2/42.5 : don't know yet
That 42.5 is going to cost a pretty penny.
My guess for the 15/1.7 would be around $700, give or take $50.
42.5/1.2 should worth $280 using 85/1.8G as reference
if same quality at open as 85/1.8G stopped down to f/2.4
which I doubt.
I paid $500 for my 25mm f/1.4, I'm going to assume the 15mm will cost the same or less.
using 50/1.4G as reference,
genuine Pana fake Leica 25/1.4 should worth $110.
@yabokkie... I paid $599 for my 85mm f/1.8G, and it's not particularly sharp. If the 42.5mm is anything like the 25mm, it will be significantly sharper than the 85mm f/1.8G stopped down to f/2.4. Plus it comes with IS.
And in terms of DoF the difference between f/1.8 and f/2.4 is really small.
@yabokkie... the Nikon 50mm f/1.4G is quite crappy as a reference. It is crazy soft until f/2.8, and the bokeh is unpleasant. Nothing like the masterpiece that is the 25mm f/1.4.
though tested on very different caremas, I guess the center resolution of 25/1.4 may be as good as 50/1.4G but far poorer performance than Nikon towards borders.
and the Nikkor is two stops faster.
@yabokkie Or if you use the new Nikon 58mm f1.4 on an APS body the 42.5mm should be worth around $1200 :)
We've been though this before, you can't just make a direct price comparison unless image quality between the lenses is identical, wait til we have samples and lens tests then come back with an equivalent price.
> We've been though this before
and you still don't have a point to make.
using 58/1.4G as reference,
mounted on DX (D7100), it instantly loses near 60% of value
stopped down to f/2.4 more than 60%, then you get $250.
Ya bookie, it may have less value in your opinion but unfortunately it still costs the same
I think the current priced m43 leica lenses are perfectly reasonably priced.
Your weird value calculations make no sense. That's just not the way prices work. They don't sell camera gear by the pound like deli meat, either.
Don't feed the troll.
Yabokkie, you do know that 25mm is different to 50mm, right? It might have the equivalent FOV on a crop sensor, but it's still a 25mm lens.
> sell camera gear by the pound like deli meat, either.
actually it's a good rule of thumb for lens prices, like a dollar per gram. there can be several grades or product lines though, usually three, for flank, chuck, and sirloin.
> it's still a 25mm lens.
that I don't care much.
I care what image it can deliver on the sensor.
yabokkie, what m43 lenses do you own and use and love? What did you pay for them?
IF, though, you are just a troll, then nick off.
If lenses are coming out for people who know that DSLR cameras are fat and ugly and sit at home instead on on one's hip, and make the owner look like a numbat when seen outdoors, then comparing m43 lenses to DSLR fatboys is the most irrelevant activity imaginable.
If the price is right, it is very tempting, also for the GX7.
That little GM1 is a jewel - and if they put out reasonably priced lenses like this, it's a game changer.
You guys know this is really f4.9 on Medium format, right?
A 1.7 m43 lens lets just as much light in as a Medium Format 1.7 lens. Thus the industry standard where this is rated at 1.7.
Yeah, and it's an f32 on the Hubble.
But it's a f0.55 on 1/2.5"
it's f/1.7 but there is no way it can get you a same photo as f/1.7 in whatever aspect. it's an f/1.7 that can do the job of a f/3.3 on 35mm format.
btw, the factor is not 2 if one wants to be accurate. it's sqrt sensor area-ratio or sqrt(24 * 36 / 17.3 / 13) = 1.96, which gives you exact factor of light gathering capacity.
Does crop factor really affect light gathering? I mean I can see it affect DoF and obviously FoV, but light gathering? I'd think that if you put a light meter behind the PL 25mm f1.4 and a Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 pointed at the same light source, you'd get the same reading.
> Does crop factor really affect light gathering?
what does cropping mean, other than cropping off light?
>what does cropping mean, other than cropping off light?
Yes. But the lens is being used on a crop sensor...not a FF sensor. So if a m43 camera with a f1.4 lens and a FF camera with a f1.4 lens were point at the same subject the sensors in each camera would see the level of brightness on the subject.
> the level of brightness on the subject
same light gathering capacity for same area yes,
but not subject image
which takes 4 times larger area on 35mm format.
Funny people taking my sarcasm to start another real crop factor argument.
Endless trolling and bickering over 35mm equivalency has really made this site a bore. It's all beside the point: is it a good lens that helps the photographer make a good photograph? What other lenses are capable of on other formats is irrelevant. Your pickup can tow a 30-foot boat and my Jetta can't? Well bravo, but why should I care?
It was before my time, but I understand MF fanboys used to engage in exactly the same nonsense vs. 35mm losers back in the 70s. I guess most of those guys (and I'll bet they were all guys) have grown up or died off.
Maybe it's time for the current "crop" of 35mm fanboys to do some growing up of their own.
@Cipher: true, your field of view will be the same, and the subject brightness is the same. However, the difference in sensor size means that at f/1.4, your front lens element has to be much larger for the FF camera. Hence, the FF lens focusses *more* light onto the sensor than the smaller m43 lens. Or, if you would make a lens with the same diameter that focusses all that light on the m43 sensor, then there would be no difference in the amount of light gathered...
Light per unit sensor area is the same for all f1.7 lenses. Light per sensor is not the same if the sensor area is different. More total light would have contributed to produce the final photo in the case of the larger sensor. If you enlarge by the same ratio, then in the final displayed pictures, both pictures would have the same light per area, but one picture is larger than the other. If you enlarge to the same display size, the larger sensor would need a smaller enlargement ratio resulting in higher light per display area. It's all besides the point if you don't make efficient use of the more light you get, of course.
The point is that a good fast lens on M43 or APS-C can completely eliminate the advantage that "Full Frame".
The Panasonic 25mm F1.4 on a modern sensor M43 body will perform as well in light gathering and DOF as a 50mm F2.8 lens on any full frame body ever made.
Which is why the 35mm F2.8 Carl Zeiss announced for the Sony A7 is disappointing, indeed nearly pointless.
However the Carl Zeiss 24-70 F4 will be equivalent to 12-35 F2.0 on, say, the E-M1. Nice!
I thought the maximum number of thirds was three. Not that four thirds isn't catchy.
Olympus gives 133 percent.
the current standard is APS-C.
4/3" makers say "same/small f-number"
35mm format makers say "large sensor"
neither tells the true story,
but careless users should be blamed, too.
Excited for sample images. if it performs like the 25, this is great news.
Unless the price is through the roof, the 15mm f1.7 is a very attracive lens.
Can't wait...
Nicely done!

STMicroelectronics Accelerates Health and Fitness Monitoring
Accelerometer and Ultra Low-Power Microcontroller Track User Motion in Nike+ FuelBand Wearable Fitness Device
STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, is contributing to society and improving individuals' quality of life by providing key products that are being adopted for use in health- and fitness-monitoring products such as the Nike+ FuelBand, an innovative wristband fitness device.
The FuelBand tracks user activity, such as running, walking, dancing, and dozens of everyday actions, through ST's high-performance 3-axis accelerometer. To differentiate between simple gestures and active motion requires complex signal-processing capabilities. More than that, the FuelBand must also always be on since wearers might jump into action at any time. The device houses 120 LEDs comprising the display and a "Fuel" indicator that racks up points as the wearer exercises.
At the heart of the FuelBand is ST's ultra-low power STM32L microcontroller. In addition to providing the 32-bit performance and processing capacity required for advanced signal processing, the STM32 architecture delivers real-time responsiveness, power efficiency, and highly integrated peripherals and memory required for even the most demanding embedded applications.
The Nike+ FuelBand is a feat of ultra low-power, high-performance engineering, weighing less than one ounce, including the batteries, in a sleek black shell. Relying on ST's super-efficient low-power technology, the wristband is capable of operating for up to four fully active days without recharging.
"The inspiration behind the FuelBand was making it easy for people of all fitness levels to stay motivated and stay more active," said Stefan Olander, VP of Digital Sport, Nike. "And we didn't stop with the individual – we built an entire community to form a chain of inspiration unlike any we've seen before."
"ST is committed to applying its products and technologies to positively impact individuals' quality of life," said Benedetto Vigna, Executive Vice President, General Manager of the Analog, MEMS & Sensors Group, STMicroelectronics. "The Nike+ FuelBand is a great example of how companies in vastly different industries are collaborating to design new products which have the potential to profoundly affect the wellbeing of people all over the world."

Peter Lanza also told The New Yorker magazine in a series of interviews last fall that he believes Adam would have killed him, too, if he had the chance. And he often contemplates what he could have done differently in his relationship with Adam, although he believes the killings couldn't have been predicted.
"Any variation on what I did and how my relationship was had to be good, because no outcome could be worse," Peter Lanza told the magazine in an article dated March 17. "You can't get any more evil. ... How much do I beat up on myself about the fact that he's my son? A lot."
He said he hadn't seen his son in two years when Adam killed 20 first-graders and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown in December 2012. Adam killed himself as police arrived. He also fatally shot his mother, Nancy, in their Newtown home before going to the school.
The magazine interviews are Peter Lanza's first public comments since he released a statement the day after the massacre expressing sympathy for the victims' families and puzzlement over his son's actions.
Peter and Nancy Lanza separated in 2001 and divorced in 2009. He last saw Adam in October 2010 and wanted to maintain contact with him.
Peter Lanza said Adam was 13 when a psychiatrist diagnosed him with Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism not associated with violence. But he believes the syndrome "veiled a contaminant" that wasn't Asperger's.
"I was thinking it could mask schizophrenia," said Peter Lanza, who lives in Fairfield County, Conn., and is vice president for taxes at a General Electric subsidiary, GE Energy Financial Services.
A spokesman for Peter Lanza said Monday that Lanza would not be commenting further.
Peter Lanza told the magazine that his son as a young child was "just a normal little weird kid" who used to spend hours with his father playing with Legos.
But as he grew older, Adam's mental health problems worsened, according to Connecticut State Police documents. A Yale University professor diagnosed Lanza in 2006 with profound autism spectrum disorder, "with rigidity, isolation, and a lack of comprehension of ordinary social interaction and communications," while also displaying symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder, the documents show.
Peter Lanza said his and Nancy Lanza's concerns about Adam increased when he began middle school.
"It was crystal clear something was wrong," he said. "The social awkwardness, the uncomfortable anxiety, unable to sleep, stress, unable to concentrate, having a hard time learning, the awkward walk, reduced eye contact. You could see the changes occurring."
After the killings, police investigators discovered that Adam Lanza had written violent stories as a child and later became interested in mass murders.
Peter Lanza believes his son had no affection for him at the time of the shootings.
"With hindsight, I know Adam would have killed me in a heartbeat, if he'd had the chance. I don't question that for a minute," he told the magazine.
Peter Lanza said he has searched psychiatric literature on mass killers to try to understand what happened. He was asked how he would feel if he could see his son again.
"Quite honestly, I think that I wouldn't recognize the person I saw," he said. "All I could picture is there'd be nothing there, there'd be nothing. Almost, like, 'Who are you, stranger?'"
He said he wished Adam had never been born.
"That didn't come right away," Peter Lanza said about that statement. "That's not a natural thing, when you're thinking about your kid. But, God, there's no question. There can only be one conclusion, when you finally get there. That's fairly recent, too, but that's totally where I am."

MALVERN - A 57-year-old Glenwood man died Sunday afternoon following a motorcycle accident near Malvern.
Charles Edward Wagner died from injuries sustained in a crash near 310th Street and Paddock Ave. shortly after 4 p.m., according to a report from the Iowa State Patrol.
Investigators determined Wagner was riding a 2001 Victory motorcycle southbound on 310th Street near Paddock when he lost control of the bike. The motorcycle crashed and overturned after the wheels dropped onto to the right shoulder of the road, according to the report.
The campaign to raise funds for the new performing arts auditorium in Glenwood Community High School is drawing to a close. The fundraising drive to become a Glenwood Community Performing Arts Center "CHAIRperson" was spearheaded by Gordon Woodrow, former Glenwood high school band director.
An independent study of the Glenwood Resource Center by a private agency is complete and the state's largest residential care and treatment facility for people with mental and developmental disabilities has received generally high marks, according to Gov. Chet Culver.
Iowa Department of Human Services spokesperson Roger Munns said last week that DHS has whittled down the list of candidates for the superintendent position at the Glenwood Resource Center to three finalists. Selected from a pool of 18 candidates, the finalists are:
- Stan Butkis, recently the director of the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs, and previously the director of Virginia's mental health programs.
Change was in the air last Monday as the new Glenwood Board of Education met for its organizational meeting.
Outgoing board members Bill Agan and Frank Overhue were recognized for their combined 18 years of service to the school district before they formally stepped down to make room for newcomers Henry Clark and Dave Blum.
Clark, Blum and incumbent Dave Warren were elected Sept. 8 to serve four-year terms on the five-member board.
The Glenwood Community School District opened its new high school on Aug. 27. Lost in the glare of the spotlight on the $22 million, state-of-the art building is Glenwood's other new school.
Classes began Aug. 26 at the new Glenwood Middle School, formerly Glenwood's high school, just across the Keg Creek. The new middle school is a "big improvement" over the middle school's former home in the Meyer Building on the Glenwood Resource Center campus, said first-year GMS Principal Heidi Stanley.
Incumbent Dave Warren and newcomers Henry Clark and Dave Blum have been elected to seats on the Glenwood Board of Education.
Warren, Clark and Blum were the top three vote-getters in Tuesday's school board election, garnering 809, 697 and 526 votes respectively. Write-in candidate Cheryll Ross finished in fourth place, presumably receiving nearly all of the 382 write-in votes that were cast. Tim Harms received 313 votes, followed by Rex A. Ruth with 302, incumbent Bill Agan with 252 and Edward Lund with 212.
Brick streets have resurfaced as an issue of discussion and debate for the Glenwood City Council.
Two Glenwood citizens – Jean Jaskierny and Linda Forman – attended council meetings in August to voice their displeasure with the city's public works department for using concrete to repair a brick intersection at Coolidge and Hazel Street earlier this summer.
It isn't taking long for Glenwood Community High School students and staff to warm up to their new school.
Doors to the $21.5 million facility were formally opened Thursday morning as freshmen and sophomores reported for orientation and an abbreviated schedule of classes. Students were visibly excited about stepping into their new school for the first time.
"It's just really big. It's probably the nicest school I've ever been in," said sophomore Ben Umberger.
Morgan Lucy said she was in awe over the size of the gymnasium.

Commission Obligation To Make Additional Spectrum Available by Auction
Pub. L. 105–33, title III, § 3002(c),Aug. 5, 1997, 111 Stat. 261, provided that:
"(1) In general.—The Commission shall complete all actions necessary to permit the assignment by September 30, 2002, by competitive bidding pursuant to section 309(j) of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 309 (j)), of licenses for the use of bands of frequencies that—

"(B) are located below 3 gigahertz;
"(C) have not, as of the date of enactment of this Act [Aug. 5, 1997]—
"(i) been designated by Commission regulation for assignment pursuant to such section;
"(ii) been identified by the Secretary of Commerce pursuant to section 113 of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration Organization Act (47 U.S.C. 923);
"(iii) been allocated for Federal Government use pursuant to section 305 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 305);
"(iv) been designated for reallocation under section 337 of the Communications Act of 1934 [47 U.S.C. 337] (as added by this Act); or
"(v) been allocated or authorized for unlicensed use pursuant to part 15 of the Commission's regulations (47 C.F.R. Part 15), if the operation of services licensed pursuant to competitive bidding would interfere with operation of end-user products permitted under such regulations;
"(D) include frequencies at 2,110–2,150 megahertz; and
"(E) include 15 megahertz from within the bands of frequencies at 1,990–2,110 megahertz.
"(2) Criteria for Reassignment.—In making available bands of frequencies for competitive bidding pursuant to paragraph (1), the Commission shall—
"(A) seek to promote the most efficient use of the electromagnetic spectrum;
"(B) consider the cost of relocating existing uses to other bands of frequencies or other means of communication;
"(C) consider the needs of existing public safety radio services (as such services are described in section 309(j)(2)(A) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended by this Act);

"(3) Use of bands at 2,110–2,150 megahertz.—The Commission shall reallocate spectrum located at 2,110–2,150 megahertz for assignment by competitive bidding unless the Commission determines that auction of other spectrum (A) better serves the public interest, convenience, and necessity, and (B) can reasonably be expected to produce greater receipts. If the Commission makes such a determination, then the Commission shall, within 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act [Aug. 5, 1997], identify an alternative 40 megahertz, and report to the Congress an identification of such alternative 40 megahertz for assignment by competitive bidding.
"(4) Use of 15 megahertz from bands at 1,990–2,110 megahertz.—The Commission shall reallocate 15 megahertz from spectrum located at 1,990–2,110 megahertz for assignment by competitive bidding unless the President determines such spectrum cannot be reallocated due to the need to protect incumbent Federal systems from interference, and that allocation of other spectrum (A) better serves the public interest, convenience, and necessity, and (B) can reasonably be expected to produce comparable receipts. If the President makes such a determination, then the President shall, within 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act, identify alternative bands of frequencies totalling 15 megahertz, and report to the Congress an identification of such alternative bands for assignment by competitive bidding.
"(5) Notification to the Secretary of Commerce.—The Commission shall attempt to accommodate incumbent licensees displaced under this section by relocating them to other frequencies available for allocation by the Commission. The Commission shall notify the Secretary of Commerce whenever the Commission is not able to provide for the effective relocation of an incumbent licensee to a band of frequencies available to the Commission for assignment. The notification shall include—
"(A) specific information on the incumbent licensee;
"(B) the bands the Commission considered for relocation of the licensee;
"(C) the reasons the licensee cannot be accommodated in such bands; and
"(D) the bands of frequencies identified by the Commission that are—
"(i) suitable for the relocation of such licensee; and
"(ii) allocated for Federal Government use, but that could be reallocated pursuant to part B of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration Organization Act (as amended by this Act) [part B (§§ 131–135) of title I of Pub. L. 102–538, see Tables for classification]."

Pokémon Red and Green Version
this wiki
Pokémon Red (ポケットモンスター 赤 Pocket Monsters Red) and Pokémon Green (ポケットモンスター 緑 Pocket Monsters Green) were the very first Pokémon games to be released. Green was released only in Japan along with Red, and later when the games were translated for worldwide release was replaced with Pokémon Blue.
You are about to enter the world of Kanto where there are 151 Pokémon waiting for you. Your hometown is in Pallet Town. When you arrive a Professor Oak's lab, there are 3 Starter Pokémon you can choose from. They are Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. The player is only allowed to choose one of them in these games, and your rival always picks the Pokémon that is your weakness. In Kanto, you must defeat the following Gym leaders in order to advance in the game:
Once you defeat all of the Gym Leaders, you may proceed through Victory Road, then to the Pokémon League.
While in the Pokémon League, you will have to face the strongest trainers in the game, The Elite 4. They are as follows:
Once you defeated all of them, you will challenge your rival, who is the Champion.
After you beat your rival, you become the champion, but you still can battle the Elite 4 as many times as you wish.
Your last objective now is to complete the Pokédex.
Once the player has completed the Pokédex, the player is granted a Diploma if they talk to the employee that works for Game Freak in Celadon Mansion.
Version Exclusives
- Unlike Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow Versions for the Game Boy, Pokémon Green's (or Pocket Monsters Midori in Japan) storage media was never colored green like Red, Blue, and Yellow respectively.
- This is currently one of the only Pokémon games to be exclusively released in Japan.
- At one time it was thought to include a female protagonist, it had a design but, due to the unpopularity of the games, the idea was launched. Even so, it is likely that the girl concerned Leaf, the protagonist of the remakes.
- The design of the female protagonist of Pokémon Red Green and Blue is identical to the Pocket Monsters Special manga, as it was the basis for the creation of the character. Because just wearing clothes Blue Leaf, that girl may be her with her first design.
- In Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal, when travelling to Kanto, house designs, posters, etc ... correspond to those of the original Red and Green editions, with no editing or Japanese Blue eds. Western Red and Blue.
- Although Red and Blue were those who left Japan in the remakes were Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
- In beta editions had prepared different things as the type bird, Lapras without ears...

She is more awake today. Her heavy sedative has been discontinued with a lessor one in it's place. She is restrained so she cannot pull out her breathing tube. that is in place just in case she starts showing seizure activity and has to be sedated again (heavily). It's been nice seeing her eyes but also painful because she cannot communicate and is probably VERY scared. We are trying not to agitate her, but with the nurses in there, she gets enough agitation. We are there for her, trying to calm her when she is awake. The next 12 hours are crutial. We hope they will be seizure free. It is hard watching her intabated and sedated. Who can prepare a 7 year old to be in this situation not to be scared etc? I would love to go back 18 days and just give her a huge hug and kiss and tell her that I love her no matter what. We have had a lot of donations of blankets (crocheted & tied). She has a new collection of stuffed animals & we received a Thanksgiving meal from a friend of mine (preschool teacher who had all three of my kids previously). We have been extremely blessed with those who know us (family & friends) and online friends who I have never met and probably will never meet us & Audrey.
We are truely humbled by people's generousity. No words can possibly be said to convey how truely thankful we are.
Saying that, make sure you give your kids (human & golden) an extra hug and tell them how much you care for them. You never know what is going to happen tomorrow.
That said, our Kali is being cared for by a neighbor of ours. She is happy and is getting attention.

Prayers again and this wonderful blessing for little angel and her wonderful mom:
May the blessing of light be on you light without and light within.
May the blessed sunlight shine on you like a great peat fire,
so that stranger and friend
may come and warm himself at it.
And may light shine out of the two eyes of you,
like a candle set in the window of a house,
bidding the wanderer come in out of the storm.
And may the blessing of the rain be on you,
may it beat upon your Spirit and wash it fair and clean,
and leave there a shining pool where the blue of Heaven shines,
and sometimes a star.
And may the blessing of the earth be on you,
soft under your feet as you pass along the roads,
soft under you as you lie out on it, tired at the end of day;
and may it rest easy over you when, at last, you lie out under it.
May it rest so lightly over you that your soul may be out from under it quickly; up and off and on its way to God.
And now may the Lord bless you, and bless you kindly. Amen.

The Arrivals pt. 10 (The New Worldly Order)
9 comments:
I didn't quite understand what the "new wordld order" is yet ... hope its explained more later.
One thing I do have to say is why is it that you only use pictures of blonde people to show how corrupted the world is? I think it would be more effective to show how every other nation is copying that exact thing and really...it is ONE culture. Sex, sluts, clubs, dancing, cosmetic surgery etc....everyone is doing it now. You don't have to go to America to live "the American dream" --- their culture has been effectively exported and accepted throughout the world.

Asalaam Valikum
Brothers, I think the series is great and I pray that you are rewarded for your work by Allah (swt). I have riverted to Islam and along my path to Islam was the study of the N.W.O which made me ask myself a number of questions. Surely, now I have found the right path and have found myself alot more peaceful and tranquil in doing so. Brother, I have one question and I hope someone will be able to answer me, Insha-Allah. Who is the speaker/lecturer who begins talking from 2:10mins in Pt.10. I have watched some of Imran Hosein's work and was much interested in knowing who this lecturer is also.
Keep up the good work
Asalaam Valikum

Naming Conventions
General Naming Conventions
There are many conventions used when naming tables or fields, so others are capable of understanding the contents of the table. While there are no absolute conventions, the following are used quite often, with the intention of clearer SQL statements.
- No spaces. Using spaces is highly not advised when naming tables or fields. It makes SQL statements more complicated and harder to understand. In order to identify a gap in between words, underscores could be used. However, the preferred method is the use of Pascal casing.
- Pascal casing. This practice is known by many other names, but will be referred to here as Pascal casing. This involves using a capital letter at the beginning of each new word.
Examples: ExampleTable, TableOfContents
- Singular names. The use of singular names is just a simpler way of writing names. While plural names could be used, singular names are shorter and easier to understand.
Example: Student (as opposed the Students)
- Simple, yet describes the contents of the table or field. Names should be as small as possible, while still giving a user a clear indication of its contents.
- Avoid similar names. When making larger databases, and having many tables, the tables should be clearly identifiable. If 2 or more tables have similar names, consider renaming one of the tables or combining the contents of them both. The same could be said for fields, to a lesser extent.
Table Naming Conventions
Using prefixes. Helpful in distinguishing the different types of tables. While the prefix should be in lowercase, use Pascal casing to begin the next word. There are other types of tables; these are just the more common types. Similar types of naming conventions could be used for the types of tables that are not listed here.
- Data tables.Standard data tables should have the prefix: tbl
Example: tblExample
- Link tables. Tables that link 2 or more data table with a many-to-many relationship should have the prefix: link
Example: linkVendorProduct
Field Naming Conventions
- Using a prefix.
Fields in tables. Prefix should consist of the first 3 letters from table's name. This is to easily identify which field belongs to which table. If any prefixes conflict, then use additional letters for the prefix. For example:
Table name: tblExample Field name: exaField
- Link tables. Due to the nature of link tables, the above prefix doesn't make much sense and is redundant when used in link tables. Instead the same prefix link is used, much like the link tables.
Table name: linkVendorProduct Field name: linkVenID
- Primary keys. The general name of a table's primary key should be the first 3 letters of the table name followed by 'ID'. Similar to the general prefixes for other fields. Depending on the contents of the table, this may vary, however all primary keys should be unique of one another.
Table name: Customer Primary key: cusID
- Foreign keys. Use the standard prefix of 3 letters, but follow it with the referred table's full name, followed by 'ID'.
Table name: Product Reference table: Customer Foreign key: proCustomerID
Data types
There are a number of data types used in databases. The following are the common ones used.
- Integer (int): Integer is a data type that stores whole numbers.
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
- Float: A float data type is one that holds fractional values. That is they contain a decimal point that can "float" to the left or right depending on exponent. Floats have single precision. When defining a float, the total number of digits and the number of digits after the decimal point is declared.
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
- Double: Double is a large floating point number. The double data type has double precision and like floats can hold fractional values.
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
- Bit: Bit is a data type that is used to store bit field values. Bit(M) will store M bit values, where M ranges from 1 to 64. Assigning a value to the bit field data type that is less than M bits long will result in the value being padded on the left with zeros.
- Date: This data type stores the date but no time. The format of the date is 'YYYY-MM-DD'
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
- Datetime: The datetime data type stores both date and time. The format of datetime is 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS'.
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
|1000-01-01 00:00:00
|9999-12-31 23:59:59
- Time: The time data type stores the time value. The format of time is 'HH:MM:SS'. The hours of the time data type is large because it can be used to display the time of day, elapsed time or the time interval between two events.
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
- Year: The year data type is used to store the year values. By declaring the year as Year (4) a four digit year is specified. Declaring the year as Year (2) a two digit year is specified.
|Storage (Bytes)
|Minimum Value
|Maximum Value
- Char: The char data type holds strings or text. This data type is a fixed length data type and is declared with the length. The length specifies the maximum number of characters that are to be stored. If the text stored is less than the length then the remaining length is padded with spaces. The total number of storage in bytes is dependent on the length of the characters.
|Minimum Length
|Maximum Length
- Varchar: The varchar data type is like char where it holds text or strings and has its length defined during declaration. However, unlike the char data type, the varchar data type is not fixed length. It is variable length hence the term varchar. This means that if the text stored is less than the length, the remaining length is not padded with spaces.
|Minimum Length
|Maximum Length
ER Notation Standards
The following are required in creating an entity relationship diagram:
- Entities are represented by labelled rectangles. The label is the name of the entity. Entity names should be singular nouns.
- Relationships are represented by a solid line connecting two entities. The name of the relationship is written above the line. Relationship names should be verbs.
- Attributes, when included, are listed inside the entity rectangle. Attributes which are identifiers are underlined. Attribute names should be singular nouns.
- Cardinality of many is represented by a line ending in a crow's foot. If the crow's foot is omitted, the cardinality is one.
- Participation is represented by placing a circle or a perpendicular bar on the line. Mandatory existence is shown by the bar next to the entity for an instance is required. Optional existence is shown by placing a circle next to the entity that is optional.
Cardinality and Relationships
Defining the relationships between entities of a Database Management System (DBMS) is a crucial stepthat must be taken during the design process. They allow the designer and end user to understand how the different entities relate to each other, and understand the connections that exist between them. There are four main components that must be included when defining relationships within a database schema.
The first of these is the relationship itself. This involves identifying the relationships that exist between entities, and connecting them using the primary key/foreign key link where the primary key of one entity matches the foreign key of the other entity in the relationship. If there is no direct relationship between two entities, then they do not need to be connected. Every entity within the database must link to at least one other entity, so there should be no entities that aren't in a relationship (floating entities).
The second component is the relationship names. The relationship names ultimately describe the relationship between entities that have a relationship with another. They are generally short, being 2-3 words long, and are identified during the development of the ER diagram. As shown below, they are placed toward the entity that the relationship name is referring to, as opposed to referring from.
The third component of a relationship is the participation. This describes whether or not entries have to exist within an entity for a relationship to occur. This is usually described by using either a circle (O) for an optional participation requirement, or a pipe symbol (|) for a mandatory participation requirement. Once again, the participation requirement is shown toward the entity that is being referred to.
The final component is the cardinality of each relationship. The cardinality determines how many of each entity in a relationship must exist for that relationship to occur. They are generally represented by a crow's foot link between entities, with the absence of a crow's foot representing a singular instance and the appearance of a crow's foot representing multiple instances, as shown below:
An example using the above information is staff working at a university. Generally, staff members teach at one university, and a university employs many staff members. This case can be represented as:
Here, the relationship between these entities is represented by a single line connecting the two together. The relationship names are "employs" and "teaches at"; explaining that lecturers teach at a university and a university employs lecturers. The cardinality and participation combined state that a university must employ at least one lecturer, but one or more lecturers may not necessarily teach at a university.
Resolving Many-to-Many Relationships
Many-to-many relationships in an ER diagram must not exist when they are implemented into a database, as this can cause some information to be repeated within both tables. The way to fix this problem is to resolve the many-to-many relationship.
The first step in resolving a many-to-many relationship is to create a new entity that is placed between the entities present in the relationship. This entity will then hold the repeating information that appears in both tables, so the information is no longer repeated and can be easily updated.
The next step is to fix the cardinality and participation. This involves creating two one-to-many relationships that link to the new entity. The "many" end of the relationship must always point to the new entity between the two pre-existing entities. For the participation, the pre-existing entities must have a mandatory participation requirement within the relationship, and the new entity can either have an optional or mandatory requirement depending on the information that will be stored within it.
Finally, the link between the two original entities must be created. This simply involves linking each pre-existing entity to the new entity with the primary key to foreign key link by placing the primary key from each pre-existing entity into the new table and considering it as a foreign key.
An example of resolving a many-to-many relationship is shown below:

It happens to have a very playful and happy spirit when around Nanette. However, it has the game face and toughness throughout the battle alongside Ash's Pikachu as it battled Iris' Emolga and Cilan's Stunfisk . Against Team Rocket, its was able to dish damage against Jessie's Frillish
Tepig is first shown being introduced by Prof. Juniper along with a drowsy Oshawott and a male, cofident-looking Snivy to Nanette. She fearfully avoided choosing Oshawott as she viewed the supersition of Oshawott's Water Gun to the face while sleeping, making a mess, and creating a flood. Snivy was also not chosen as she imagined him evolving ( into a Seperior) and coiling around her affectionately. Nanette has a short breakdown until Iris gets sick of it and want her to choose. Tepig shows off by prentending to prepare a charge (like a bull). Cilan then offers a suggestion to Nanette to chose the Tepig to eleviate the problem of her cautious nature. Tepig happily agrees with Cilan and turns towards Nanette and goes beady-eyed on Nanette. Nanette calls him cute and happily chooses Tepig and Notifies Prof.Juniper. Nanette goes thourgh the "First Day Trainer" routine (getting Pokeballs, Pokedex, etc.) and finally calls Tepig to its Pokeball. Ash then Immediately proposes a battle with Nanette and her Tepig, to which Nanette is doubtfull. An idea of a tag battle sparks up and everyone agrees.
The battle takes place outside the lab and Prof. Juniper judges the battle between Ash and Nanette against Cilan and Iris. Ash sends his ace, Pikachu and Nanette calls out Tepig. Iris uses Emolga and Cilan bring in Stunfisk. Ash calls for Pikachu's Thunderbolt which connects with Emolga than Stunfisk, which it delights. Nanette mistakenly commands for Tepig to use Thunderbolt. Tepig wide-eyed back Nanette in shock. Ash explains Tepig cant use it and offers to use her Pokedex to see its beginner moves. Nanette quickly learns and calls for Tepig's Ember at Cilan's Stunfisk which connects.
Team Rocket later appear while the battle is still going on and renew their vow to capture Pikachu for the Boss and send out their newly caputured Amoonguss and Frillish. Nanette's Tepig was able to use Ember aqainst Frillish but unfornate with his Tackle due to Frillish's type. Team Rocket eventually failed to capture Pikachu, so they happily went after Tepig. They succeed in getting Nanette's Tepig as far as flying away in their balloon until Ash uses his Unfezant along with Pikachu to use a good long-ranged shot to blast Team Rocket. It hits and Ufenzant and Pikachu safely return Tepig to Nanette, before she bids her farewells and confidently departs for her journey at the end of the episode.

DELAND, Fla. (AP) -- A central Florida woman who was arrested in a hit-and-run crash that killed one teen and injured another apparently committed suicide.
Volusia County Sheriff's deputies found 50-year-old Danielle Halverson dead in her bedroom Monday after a friend got worried when he couldn't reach her. He called the sheriff's office, reporting that Halverson had been depressed lately and had spoken of suicide.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports Halverson left a suicide note.
She was arrested in October and charged with leaving the scene of a March 17 crash that killed 14-year-old Juliana Taylor Hobbs. She was also charged with tampering with evidence. Records show she told deputies the crash might have happened when she reached for her cellphone.
An autopsy and toxicology tests will determine how she died.
