I started out babysitting in 8th grade for 3 boys ages 2, 5 and 8. I babysat them for 3 years. My responsibilities included waking up and putting them down for bedtime/naps. I provided them with meals. I took them on several activities such as going to the park, swimming pool, etc. I also babysat for my 3 girl cousins starting at age 5, 4 and 2 who are now 9, 8 and 6. I also have a nephew who is now 2 and I have been babysitting him since he was an infant. I love spending as much time as I can with my nephew and I absolutely adore children. I also am an animal lover as well. I have owned cats and dogs throughout my life. I just graduated from college in May 2013. I recently babysat for 2 infant twins at the age of 3 months. I took care of basic needs (feed, put in for naps, play, read, swaddle).

If you empty the "start" directory and put your game in there then just rename "engine.exe" to what ever you want and then when you run it your game will run first.
When you run your game from the editor though it should just run straight away.

On December 19th hordes of reindeer took over Old City for the 6th Annual Reindeer Romp. The Friends United in Need Network (FUNN) threw this party (and threw in all the antlers too). Santa's best reindeer brought canned goods for Philabundance before they set out on the 3-stop bar hop. Mansure Music provided strolling musicians to help guide the partiers from the first stop, M Restaurant and Lounge, to the second, 5 Spot, and finally, the last leg, Envy Nightclub.
By anyone's estimate, December is a heavy-hitting month on the social calendar. The weekend of December 14th and15th, The Kimmel Center of the Performing Arts opened its doors to Philadelphia royalty and loyal subjects, with celeb concerts by Elton John, singers Denyce Graves and Frederica von Stade, cellist Yo Yo Ma, pianist Emmanual Ax, violinist Itzhak Perlman and of course, our own beloved Philadelphia Orchestra. On Friday, after Elton John belted out the last song in his hour-long showcase, the Kimmel Center was open for everyone's perusal. There were scrumptious buffet stations set up all through the vast hall and circular corridors. On Saturday, post-concert and pre-dancing, we sat down to a spectacular four course dinner with wine pairings. The must-see of the weekend, other than the women's luxurious dresses, the soaring expanse of the concert hall and the rushing hither and thither of the guests, was the rooftop garden under the stars. The giant glass dome reaching over the top of it makes one feel as though they might be plucked from their table by the Man in the Moon at any moment.
Richard Keaveney and James Brown held a fundraising reception to benefit MANNA, a non-profit group that helps individuals living with AIDS in Philadelphia. The two generous men opened their house to over 70 caring people on December 10th. Their plush and capacious apartment was decked with festive holiday trimmings and plenty of bubbly to go around. Thanks to Richard and James, and their altruistic friends, a total of $10,000 was raised for MANNA.
The Young Friends of the Community Coalition and 170 of their friends held their Philadelphia dinner cruise on the Delaware, Wednesday, November 14th, aboard The Highlander. We pushed off at 7:15 from Penn's Landing to the tunes of jazz group, The Underwoods. Community Coalition is a non-profit organization dedicated to charitable services for the homeless, family support services, one-to-one advocacy, all with the basic idea of respecting the dignity of each individual helped.
Luminaries, local and international, celebrated the 300th anniversary of religious freedom in America, and contemporary humanitarian heroes on Tuesday, November 13th at the annual Spirit of Liberty gala in the Crystal Tea Room. Gerry and Marguerite Lenfest and Suzanne and Norman Cohn were honored as community leaders. Celebrants included, John DiIluio, John Street, Ed Rendell and many other of Philadelphia's active citizens.

The Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America (MGFA) is the only national volunteer health agency in the United States dedicated solely to the fight against myasthenia gravis. MGFA serves patients, their families and caregivers.
Myasthenia gravis (pronounced My-as-theen-ee-a Grav-us) comes from the Greek and Latin words meaning "grave muscular weakness." The most common form of MG is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disorder that is characterized by fluctuating weakness of the voluntary muscle groups. To learn more click here.
Dr. Jeffrey T. Guptill (MD, MA, MHS), assistant professor of neurology at Duke University Medical Center, delivered an update on Myasthenia Gravis research and clinical findings, at the 2016 National Conference, held May 1-3, in Raleigh, North Carolina. Dr. Guptill discussed the updates on clinical trials for Methotrexate, CFZ533, Rituxmiab and Eculizimab, and also updates from the 2015 Scientific Session in Hawaii. Please click here for presentation.
"You are not alone. I have Myasthenia Gravis. Myasthenia Gravis does not have me." - A tremendous PSA produced by the MG Georgia Support Group, which can be viewed here.
RAISE (Recognize, Assist, Include, Support, and Engage) Family Caregivers Act (Senate Bill 1719; House Bill 3099) has passed the Senate but still needs to pass the House. This bipartisan legislation is led by Senators Collins of Maine with original cosponsors Sens. Baldwin (WI), Ayotte (NH), Bennet (CO) and Mikulski (MD) and calls for the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to develop, maintain and update an integrated strategy to recognize and support family caregivers. MGFA joins with 50 other organizations to support the RAISE Family Caregivers Act. We urge you to take a few minutes to contact your Congressman/woman and urge him/her to support this legislation. It's the first step in better recognition and help for family caregivers.

Today we are excited to announce the official launch of AncestryPressTM, our new self-publishing application. AncestryPress lets you create professionally printed, custom family history books for yourself or that can serve as gifts for other family members.
The great thing about AncestryPress is how simple it is to use. AncestryPress exports profiles, historical documents, photos and other pieces of your Ancestry.com tree directly into the application. AncestryPress takes these pieces and assembles them into automatically generated page layouts with illustrated family tree charts, biographical timelines, family group sheets and more. You can customize each page as much or as little as you'd like by including photos and records, changing backgrounds, using drag-and-drop embellishments, adding text and more.
We invite you to check out and play around with the new AncestryPress tool, and welcome your feedback about the product. You can read the entire press release here.

Suzanne, when this feature is incorporated into FTM as a feature internal to the program, then I would love to use it. In the meantime, I do not plan to upload my data to A.com in order to print anything—call it a matter of privacy. Best wishes, Lawrence
I should probably add that my concern about privacy derives from the fact that Ancestry's reputation is not entirely pristine when it comes to commercial use of users' private data, all protestations to the contrary …
Lawrence, you have hit the nail directly on the head, in addition we pay to see A.coms information, they take ours, for free, and charge others to view it, seems like an unequal formula…..
I am very interested in using this tool to help me complete a book that I have already written (about 50 pages long)as a personal history. I am having trouble after doing all the suggestions for the Flash Drive, it still won't let me in. Can I use the narrative that I have done, intersperse pictures, and the templates as well? Also, I have no idea what the cost would be. I can't seem to find where that would be found. As for the privacy issue, I am satisfied with the personal tree option that you have, allowing for deceased relatives to be researched on other tree. Thanks, Joycelyn
Really suggest moving all development away from a web site and move the functionality within the application so we can work-offline
Lawrence said it right – Privicy concerns! There is no way I'll upload my tree into a web site.
Thanks, Jay
I agree with most of the other commentators here.
Why was it necessary to remove a function to another site, that was previously available internally in the program?

Aid workers rush to help East Africa's hungry
DADAAB, Kenya Seven-month-old Mihag Gedi Farah is the frail face of famine in the Horn of Africa. He stares out wide-eyed almost in alarm, his skin pulled taut over his ribs and twig-like arms.
At only 7 pounds, (3.2 kilograms), he weighs as much as a newborn but has the weathered look of an elderly man.
Mihag is just one of 800,000 children who officials warn could die across the region. Aid workers are rushing to bring help to dangerous and previously unreached regions of drought-ravaged Somalia.
Famine victims like Mihag bring new urgency to their efforts, raising concerns about how many hungry children still remain in Somalia, far away from the feeding tubes and doctors in the field hospital at this Kenyan refugee camp.
Mihag's fragile skin crumples like thin leather under the pressure of his mother's hands, as she touches the hollows where a baby's chubby cheeks should be.
Sirat Amine, a nurse-nutritionist with the International Rescue Committee, puts Mihag's odds for survival at only 50-50. A baby Mihag's age should weigh about three times what he does.
His mother, Asiah Dagane, fans Mihag with the edge of her headscarf to keep flies away. He cries weakly, and when he does, she bounces him gently to try to soothe him and murmurs softly.
"In my mind, I'm not well," she says softly. "My baby is sick. In my head, I am also sick."
Mihag is the youngest of seven children in his family. Dagane told The Associated Press through a hospital translator that she brought him and four siblings from Kismayo to Kenya after all their sheep and cattle died.
Like the tens of thousands of other Somalis fleeing starvation, the family traveled sometimes by foot, other times catching rides with passing trucks, cars or buses.
Dagane keeps vigil for her son in the ward, which is painted with cheerful pictures of balloons and fruit, lit with fluorescent bulbs. Other mothers huddle on beds next to babies with IV tubes snaking from their heads or hands.
Some infants cry, others are listless. In the middle of the room hangs a woven basket from a scale - but it's not needed to tell that many of the babies are dangerously malnourished.
Abdi Ibrahim Yara arrived 20 days ago with his four children, including 1-year-old twins. They are unable to drink the fortified milk and must be nourished by an IV.
He and his wife were on the road for 25 days, but she became sick from malnutrition and died. She was four months pregnant.
"We had a comfortable life there, but now there is no one left," Yara says.
Nurse Abukar Abdule says all of those arriving at the field hospital complain of "severe malnutrition." Most have walked from the middle of Somalia, between Kismayo and the capital of Mogadishu.
"We have to treat them for at least a week," Abdule says. "They have no food, shelter or water. Some have diseases. Some died on the road and some were lost. Many mothers who come here have lost children."
The United Nations estimates that more 11 million people in East Africa are affected by the drought, with 3.7 million in Somalia among the worst-hit because of the ongoing civil war in the country.
Somalia's prolonged drought became a famine in part because neither the Somali government nor many aid agencies can fully operate in areas controlled by al-Qaida-linked militants, and the U.N. is set to declare all of southern Somalia a famine zone as of Aug. 1.
Aid organizations including the U.N. World Food Program have not been able to access areas under the control of the al-Shabab militants, who have killed humanitarian workers and banned the WFP.

Olympus to launch the amazing OM-D on February 8th, less than a month away!
YES!! Ive been following the rumors from the get go and now it seems it is pretty official that Olympus will release the OM-D (OM Digital) on Feb 8th 2012 with cameras shipping in March. No obvisouly the image above is NOT an OM-D but it is an old OM I used to own and that camera was lovely. The OM-D will be the "PRO PEN" that has been talked about for the last year. Finally Olympus gets serious and rightfully so. After the pressure started by the Fuji X100, then the Sony NEX-7 followed by the recently announced Fuji X-PRO 1, Olympus is showing that they are not backing down.
Out of all of the announcements, even the Fuji X-PRO 1, I am most excited about the OM-D. Why? Well for starters, it will have OM styling with a built in high res 1.44 million dots EVF. Yes, BUILT IN. It will also be WEATHER SEALED which is the 1st of its kind for micro 4/3. No other mirrorless has gone that far yet, so Olympus is paving the way like they did with their original and beautiful E-1 back in the day.
The new weather sealed 12-50mm from Olympus
The OM-D will also have all new in body image stabilization, magnesium body, a new 16MP sensor capable of high ISO up to 25,600 and will be available in black or classic silver. THIS WILL BE the best Micro 4/3 camera ever and the 1st lens, the 12-50 weather sealed (dust and splash proof) zoom which will be the kit lens is already popping up at B&H Photo in Black and Silver.
DAMN, these are exciting times for digital photographers. The Fuji X-Pro 1 and now the Olympus OM-D? Not sure I can take much more, lol. I will be jumping on this NO QUESTION. I am hearing an $1100 price for the body only in the USA. Im guessing $1500 for the kit. To me, this will be well worth the cost for a high end Olympus M4/3 body styled after one of the most iconic 35mm cameras ever. New sensor, weather sealed, and the ability to shoot with the Olympus 12mm f/2, 25 1.4 and 45 1.8. Three lenses that are masterpieces in the M/43 world as far as I am concerned. BTW, the 12mm is now down to $700 from $800 and my guess is that once this body is available there will be a shortage of lenses.
Get ready…this will be an exciting next 2-3 months! Olympus, send me one for review..PLEASE!

Great! The ol' OM-1 was a comparatively small camera back in the day. Still is a small camera compared to some of the dSLRs. However, it isn't small camera compared to the Oly Pens. And it doesn't have a mirror, but will still have a big hump. Unlike the new Pens with the wonderful articulating viewfinder, the OM-D will have an fixed EVF which gets no points from me. I guess Olympus is out of new ideas, and is going back to the 70s to milk that all they can for the aging group who are nostalgic for those cameras.
I had an urge to go back to film a few years ago,and grabbed my OM-1 and loaded a roll of velvia. Then, halfway through the roll, decided I wanted to do B&W, so pulled out that roll. wasting half. Then I noticed how the ol' boxy OM did not really fit my hand the way I remembered unless I had the Winder 1 on it. Never finished the Tri-x either. Got bored. Remembered why I gave up film and realized how dated the OM-1 is now. Nice time to reintroduce it.
At least it is weather-proofed. I suppose that is worth something. Not $1100 plus, but worth something. Even the original film OMs weren't weather proofed.
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark —–
The sensor MUST have low light capability…….
Will the OM lenses work with the OM-D ?
I have some very nice Zuiko glass.
I don't understand excitement over micro 4/3 at all. Can someone enlighten me?
Latest photoshop
3 top dials as mentioned in the FT5 (80-95% accurate) rumours
Curved grip as shown in latest FT5 leaked photo showing a portion of OMD.
Man if it looks anything as these its goona be wooow.
Technology inside shaping up to match the looks :
(cdafpdaf, evfovf, new sensor with increased DR & iso, 5 axis IS, weather sealing).
Everybody`s talking about new kind of walking!
these times are really exciting again…like many others I never really enjoyed the "bigcameraheavybackpack10lenses" system, even for serious assignments… bring back the joy!
Olympus patent for PDAF using reflected light from the sensor
(grapevine says fastest AF & 3D tracking combining CDAF & PDAF)
Note the optical path to the VF
Oly PDAF & EVF
Oly PDAF & OVF
Hence the need for the hump pyramid, the marketing of One Major system and the emphasis on One …
merging E series dslr & Pen in One.
"Olympus – new enthusiast centred product
Focus 2012 will be the first UK viewing of Olympus' hot new high-end product …. One Major camera's much anticipated first public view in the UK. We can't tell you what but there is a clue beginning with One."
Not to get any hopes up
Grapevine says the 3D tracking AF maybe hybrid CDAF PDAF
Other stuff fling about the grapevine:
modular : like ricoh gxr : 4/3 module, m4/3 module ?
Hold on to your horses.
Grapevine reckons AF faster than EP3 (with dedicated lenses ofcourse) & far better tracking.
Better than AF on V1J1 both of which struggle with af in low light
Enjoy the ongoing saga of the OM-D "strip tease"… (FT5) First Olympus OM-D leaked image! http://tinyurl.com/7889qqw ;)
Thanks for the link.
Word on the street is it will weigh 425 grams. That's almost half as heavy as my GX1. So, my envious monkey brain will rationalize my GX1 purchase either by:
a. The GX1 is better for me because it's smaller and lighter and I can carry it all the time everywhere. I don't need to own the OM-D. Screw the OM-D!
or b. I'm glad I spent all my money on both the GX1 AND the OM-D, because even though I have the Olympus for outings, special occasions, and days when I'm just shooting and not commuting or anything, it also makes sense for me to have the lighter GX1 for every day use, and besides, it's always good to have multiple bodies for multiple lenses, right?
Unless 425 grams was with the kit lens, which would make sense since it's only 5mm wider….wait, does that make a difference?
Seriously, it looks really cool, and I might wind up with buyers remorse, but if it's only weather sealing, style, and a built in EVF, that's not a huge deal. The sensor will probably be better, but at the same size and megapixels, it can't be that much better then the new G sensors. If it's really that much more impressive, heavier, and has a flip screen (which seems unlikely) then maybe I will go crazy own both. I had a GF1 and GH1 and they were different enough to make sense having the both of them. If it's has that much more goodness at the same size and weight, well, then I might consider biting the bullet and selling my Panasonic at a loss. We'll just have to see….
Think I'll pass on that awesome looking zoom. I'm all about the primes now!
Twice as heavy as my GX1, not half, duh.
I see you like lightweight cameras
Hm. Sure it's got a built in EVF, but without a hotshoe that's kind of pointless.Was this made by the Nikkon toy division?
Check out that big OVF & simple interface.
Camera makers take note.
Is that the Nikon V1 everyones talking about? I heard it looked like a toy but this is too much. I wonder what Nikon was thinking.
Steve, quick question. I'm currently considering the Nikon V1. I also own an Olympus E-PM1. I like Olympus because of the rich colors, the sharpness of the pictures and just the overall handling. I notice you also like the V1/J1 and E-P3 very much. With what I described, would the V1 vibe with my style? I don't care about sensor size or any of the technical aspects. I'm more concerned that the camera gives my photos a certain look and feel. Thanks for any response!
I'm sorry, but what about this makes it "amazing"? It just seems to be a weather-sealed Pen with a EVF. I would say that the Sony NEX-7 best this rumored OM-D spec in just about every way.
I've owned both an OM-1 and an OM-2 in the past and loved them. But this is just something that doesn't live up to the OM name. If Olympus gave us a full frame (24x36mm sensor) OM mirrorless and built a system around it to match the original OM, THEN we would have something to talk about. This rumored OM-D spec is just "meh".
You don't need to be sorry cause you are right. Most people except for you and I have forgotten that Olympus had already made an OM digital…it was called the E450,[ E400 series.] What Olympus has done will no doubt piss their ep3 users off, now that the slr shaped om-d has a built in EVF. Panasonic did the same with the GF2 and 3 before they had to crawl back with their tails behind their legs and make the GX1, Samsung has repeated this when they made the nx200.
I work in a store that sells cameras, and the biggest problem that CSC makers face is price point. A CSC with EVF that costs over 600 will have a big mountain to climb as most customers will hesitate to spend that amount when they can get a dlsr with an optical VF at the same if not cheaper price. CSC cameras will replace the DSLR someday ONLY when the cost of making a super high quality EVF costs no more than an OVF. Until then, the CSC camera market will always at best, play second fiddle to their DSLR masters.
Olympus was already winning the looks and usability match up with Panasonic. This new camera should pry a few more folks away from their G1X's and G3's because of its built in EVF. It'll still be a m4/3's sensor though, so if you weren't a convert to that technology before this, I doubt this high end camera will do the trick. It's still going to have dynamic range and low light disadvantages compared to Sony, Fuji, Ricoh, Leica, and now Canon offerings, so folks for whom that's the number one consideration are not going to be won over. While weather sealing may be big for some, I suspect those some are relatively few compared to the market at large. Mostly this camera will take market share from Panasonic and from Olympus's own EP-3.
B&H and Amazon will not take pre-orders yet as not on their website. Sure would like to be first in line,
but would settle for second or third. Can you let us know when you hear they are taking pre orders?
Thanks, can't wait for the latest toy.
Way to go Fuji!
Fujifilm Reaches Out to Rival
CEO Says Japanese Company Is Open to Alliance With Scandal-Hit Olympus.
OMD with smaller version of X-P1 sensor with Olympus jpeg engine
Can we dream.
Having just purchased a GX1, which I'm in love with, a very childish part of me hopes this camera won't be all that great! It probably will be, and I'll lament not owning one, but such are the dangers of this new high-turnover digital world!
By end of 2012 all the guys will have their EVILs outta their pants.
So basically it's an ep3 with a so so EVF, weather sealing , the shape of the old om slr and has the same m43 mount with the same size sensor. Jesus, I'm so excited I cant get off my couch. [ in case you didn't notice I was being sarcastic]
Someone posted EP3 OM photoshop
Its missing the 3 top dials (grapevine says OMD has)
Flash maybe top of pyramid with a lever switch to make it spring open.
In the meantime, while everybody is going EVIL with that fashionable "retro" look, NIKON has redefined the "pocketable P&S" concept. Take a look: http://tinyurl.com/6q4lyqw
ah…and also BTW, the Nikon V1 is now available in white: http://tinyurl.com/6nd7mrz
Cheers! ;)
You always claimed that you did not like the GH1/GH2 because of their DSLR form factor. What is the big fuss with this OM-1 look alike camera then? As usual for Olympus, it will probably use an old Panasonic sensor (the 16MP G3/Gh2/GX1) that will quite possibly be one notch under the near coming GH3.
This sounds really nice, but i tend to be a one or two camera person. I don't know if i'm willing to invest in a m4/3 and sacrifice dof and possibly overall IQ. Cant wait to see some product shots and of course image samples! Its great to see companies making nice looking cameras again!
I read the title and got very excited. Still am. I did think though that maybe Oly had brought out am OM camera with an OM mount, with new OM lenses or maybe reconditioned originals, sort of high end lomo refurbs. Still it looks good. Something about this hits me more than the fuji. Memories of my old OM with 55 1.2 long since dead with fungus.
A full frame compact dslr, weighing 15-20% less than a D700 with the accompanying reduction in bulk, with compatibility a la Nikon for older lenses. Now that would be something. Every major camera maker should have one; Olympus, Nikon, Canon.
I am actually pretty sure lots of posters here would be over the moon with a camera like that.
Oh, and no cracked displays please, or hairline cracks in the sensor, or strangely coloured banding in the images, or DOA's, or atrocious high ISO performance.
Good quality and reliability is what you pay for. The abovementioned manufacturers seem o achieve that.
I think the strategy to stay with the 4/3 sensor is the right move, this format has longevity built in and will only get better with improvements along the product development path. I do not want to see a full frame sensor on these cameras, I purchased the 4/3 system for it's smaller size and portability. I only wish other companies adopted this format so we as the consumer will have many more lens and camera options. Can you imagine if NIKON adopted the 4/3 format instead of the J1 and V1 cameras? Yes I know the results from these cameras are top notch but why buy into a closed loop format when the 4/3 wins on all other levels? I fully expect to purchase the new OLYMPUS without any hesitation, I can't wait.
What is portability? It sounds good, but in fact this does not apply to the PEN camera's too. Also a E-P3 kit, you cannot take with you in your pocket. Only with a pancake, maybe it fits (not in my jacket!). So, what is the difference with a NEX-7. OK, lenses are somewhat bigger, but you've also pancakes here.
That's why I prefer a bigger sensor, mainly because of two things, ISO and DOF. For me DOF is one of the most important things, and it's why I'm still dreaming of a FF camera.
With small sensor camera, you keep looking to other cameras. I saw what Steve wrote on this site, he just uses the V1 and E-P3 for family work. His former X100 and his M9 he uses for the better work. That's the real thing and is the best review of camera's like this OM-D, too. I guess this new OM-D gets the same sensor as the GX1, of which DXO-mark says:
A significant loss of image quality under low-light conditions
Noticeably loud shutter "click"
ISO range is still quite limited, particularly for low ISO
This could be my new camera. I like the X-pro1 and I expect the coming Fuji shall beat this Olympus in image quality, but looking to AF and available lenses I am sure I will prefer this Olympus.
This would have been cool with a bigger sensors. Aside from the weather sealing, what does it offer above the existing ep series? Better off spending much less money on the original on OM, IMHO
I have the Olympus ep3 right now with the kit lens, a 45mm f/1.8 and the 40-150 zoom. Plus I have adapters that allow me to mount Nikon F lenses and the original pen FT lenses. I have a Pen FT, ca 1966, and three lenses for that camera, the 25mm, the 40mm, and the 100mm. Am I excited to see the rumors about the OMD? Are you kidding? I cannot wait to read the details, see the pictures, and yes, pay the money to get this breakthrough camera from Olympus. Bring it – Now!
Ok. I have a question.
Is there any realistic way to get money out of my E-P2 when I upgrade to the OM-D? And what is the best way? Try to trade in at a retail store? Sell on e-bay? Sell on SteveHuffPhoto.com?
(And how much money should I expect to get if I let go of old body on old kit lens).
Anyone who has been through this before and has a tip, I'd appreciate it.
You will prob get the most for it locally on a craigslist, then ebay. Most shopping here tend to want stuff cheap.
As far as expectations, do you really not know how to do your own research? Check ebay, then look at completed sales.
Do we already have the 1st of April or could this really be true?
And how is it looking?
I am really looking forward to read more of it!
I agree, Victor, the m4/3 system has lots to offer. Excellent lenses – especially the primes that Steve raves about. The sensor is a little small and the high ISO is not yet up to a level I'd like, but as an overall system I really like it. I agree that the Sony NEX lenses are just too big for such tiny cameras. Sure the IQ is probably better, especially as high ISOs but I can't help thinking you might as well have a small DSLR.
I love the micro 4/3 sensor! It's not to small and sure I wish it was larger. However, I don't want a larger sensor if it means larger lenses. I love many of the micro 4/3 lenses just because they are so small and are a perfect fit for the small micro 4/3 bodies. The best APS-C mirrorless, the NEX system, has way to large lenses for the body size in my eyes.
Here are some great lenses for micro 4/3 (no legacy lenses):
The Panny: 20mm f/1.4, 14mm f/2.5, 25mm 1.4, 7-14mm f/4, 100-300mm f/4-5.6, 14-140 f/4-5.8 etc.
The Oly: 17mm f/2.8, 12mm f/2, 45mm f/1.8, 9-18mm f/4-5.6 etc.
Samyang: 7,5mm fisheye
Voightlander: Nokton 25mm f/0.95
So I'm really looking forward to the OM-D/Pro PEN and am psyched that Olympus is strongly supporting the micro 4/3 format.
Probably time to update from my old GF1 !!!
Bad sensor…
Hype hype hype. It's looking good Steve but you really think the ISO will climb for real use to 25600? Look at the ISO 12800 of the latest pens.
I cancelled my NEX-7 pre-order a few days ago on rumours of this camera! Mainly because the NEX system just doesn't have enough good lenses right now, and also I don't think the 24Mpx sensor in the NEX-7 is as good as the 5N's 16Mpx. I've got the fabulous 12 and 45mm Oly lenses for M43, which I use for probably 90% of my photography, so a 'pro' body would make a perfect combo with these!
I do wish they keep the Mpx down to 12 though and not 16 – I'd prefer better low light capability than more Mpx, so I'm hoping that spec is wrong, or if not, at least a significantly better IQ from the new sensor. EVF spec rumours seem to vary – one site quoting only 610k pixels – which seems far too low to me to be any good – I think they must have got confused with the rear screen spec.
Let's hope it doesn't disappoint!
I think the price is way to high for a 4/3 camera with too many mega pixels cramped into a small sensor. They should have put a new high quality 10 MP sensor in the camera instead.
The format is 4/3 not 3/2. Crop a Canon apsc image to 4/3 and the sensor is virtually the same height. Don't believe the industry propaganda!
Maybe, because it costs too much money.
why dont they make it a full frame already?
I am a bit confused about the timing. So we have a pre-announcement of an announcement here?
Here we go again, King is dead, long live the king.
We hear romours, see mock ups, feel guilty for being left behind and pre order, then get nothing but a new promise from another camera manufacturer.
I think Leica can reply to all this challenge if they may create a a new X1 with EVF and interchangable lenses. Then the lions and the foxes could be distinguished.
Here is my wish list, a small nikon,V2 with a decent sensor with which I may use my old Nikon lenses from 70ties.
Second, a replacement for my panasonic LX 5, LX7: 24(2.0)-120(4.0)mm, large sensor, evf, body size same as LX5
Anyone hearing me out there???
Mmmmm silver nose 50/1.4 lush bokeh
Weather sealed : well that resolves putting a plastic bag over ep.
Exp comp & Iso dial in one yes please.
Metering switch oh yeah.
Top lcd panel coolio.
Scratch top lcd have Konica Hexar AF like aperture dial yummy.
Oh boy, you should see a black OM-ie with 40/2, a heartbreaker.
Oh man
Combine the two now thats what Im talking about.
(Just a little tweak : expcomp dial below iso dial, adding metering switch & aperture dial).
I would have taken an FA as a resting place for the OM-1n; a much nicer and sturdier camera than the FG… :-)
Form over function ;) FG>FA
Grapevine says OMD got 3 dials wooooo
An FA is a bit more serious than an FG, and was far ahead of its time, at the time… Matrix metering anyone?
my comment "Form over function FG>FA"
Form FG
Function FA
These days too many cameras have Form >Function.
m4/3 are Form
Functionally m4/3 are catching up with :
lovely primes,
fast CDAF (which though doesn't have the tracking of PDAF is infact more accurate).
m4/3 just needs to catch up with :
hybrid CFAD PDAF
sensor (Panasonic have a patent for organic sensor which in theory would blow away current FF sensor for high iso & detail).
Tine will tell.
Grapevine says
"Five-axis image stabilizer in body.
FAST AF and 3D tracking
610.000 dots 3 inch OLED swivel screen"
Photojournalism, Reportage, Street mmmmm
Steve, if this is a micro 4/3rds camera, then it must not have a full framed APS- CMOS sensor. The sensor is smaller. In addition, by thowing 16MP on this smaller sensor, let alone, add ISO past 25,000, it seems to me a recipe for disaster, or at the very least, very high noise on photos past ISO 1600. Please, correct me if I am wrong. I am confused here.
Great news Steve. It's on my list! With my M9-P going this will make for a sweet replacement, albeit a different camera.
Omg I am saving up for Leica m8 but i don't think I will be buying that. I will buy this camera on first day I will preorder with amazon as it will go up for it
all they need is uber fast lenses with weather sealing for m4/3 mount. 25mm f/1 zuiko ?
Your crystal ball reveals! I was thinking the 20 and the 45. Olympus seems to take great care to improve their cameras with each iteration. Really looking forward to this one. And, your review of it. Thanks for all the work you put into helping us track the best.
This camera might be a cure from my disappointment on GX 1 ,.. Had enough with panasonic
May be you already have a pre-production version under review!!! ;)
Oh — this sounds VERY exciting. I want it.
While I understand everyone's excitement at companies actually making cameras that look like cameras, I'll stick with my 40-yo Olympus OM-1 that takes better pics than an overhyped and overpriced camera we haven't even seen yet.
Wow, very educated comment there.
"I'll stick with my 40-yo Olympus OM-1 that takes better pics than an overhyped and overpriced camera we haven't even seen yet"
So.. you know it takes better photos and know the OM-D is over hyped and overpriced already?
You're amazing.
Yes, yes I am. And yes I do know that a full frame 35mm camera film camera takes better pictures for my purposes than a micro 4/3 camera.
And yes, it's over-hyped just like every new camera that pops up on each month. Too many are more concerned about new gear than actually taking pictures. And that's just the way the camera companies like it. Enjoy this camera until the new one pops up next month!
whats up with the 4/3 sensor. Damn, why can't somebody other leica put a full frame sensor in a rangefinder
This isn't a rangefinder and Canon and Nikon have put FF sensors in DSLR bodies (which the original OM was). Shame Oly didn't do the same, but then they would lose access to all the m4/3 lenses they are investing heavily in.
I don't think Oly is financially healthy enough to launch a FF system with new lenses.
Yes Canon and Nikon have put 24×36 sensors in a body but those bodies are nearly double the size of an OM, I don't think either manufacturer ever had a body as small as an OM, which was the reason Olympus chose to build a Digital from scratch. As regards the FF tag you use along with everone else it is no more than a marketing tag, how do you compare this FF tag with a 6×6 format, which is considerable larger at 60x60mm compared to 24x36mm.
Yes, everything from FF and down is really small sensors compared to medium format, but then again 60x60mm is very small compared to large format film (8×10″ etc) which is still used by landscape photographers..
Anyway, an FF sensor is still about 4 times larger than a micro 4/3'rds sensor which is why FF IQ is so much better than the IQ from 4/3'rds.
I bought an EP3 just before christmas as an upgrade to my ep-1. Love it with the vf2. price with the vf2 was about 1000 including kit lens. So 1000 for the OMD would be a steal. I might have to splurge, depending on how good the high iso really is. I don't have much of an issue with the current sensor, depite all the criticism on the web. So I don't regret the purchase.
btw I my camera took a tumble from its camera case when I thought I was slinging the camera strap over my shoulder, and it fell lens first onto river rock with a sickening crunch. The 12 mm lens sustained quite a ding on the front ring, but both lens and camera were otherwise unscathed as far as I can tell. So I would say the build quality of the EP3 is "good enough".
One can argue that the Digital Pens are as good as the original PEN half-frame cameras were (the sensor size is certainly comparable). Will the OM-D live up to the IQ of a full frame OM? Doubtful.
Regardless, this looks to be a great camera for the m4/3 world, I just wish Olympus hadn't cashed in on the OM line in order to drum up business in the short term.
So it's essentially a retro looking GH2 with weather sealing.
But with inferior video.
Careful, Steve, you and your website are in danger of going into meltdown if the excitement continues much further into 2012.
Pro body implies professionals will use it…….
I don't see many pros using mft for their paid work.
Sounds like it could be a great camera.
Again, everyone got exciting for nothing….. Nikon and canon are ready respectivly to launch a fullframe fm-3D and a-d!!!!!
-99% the same as befor with a 16mm 24*36 but no viewing screen, for What? Wast Time to look, erase, look erase, look erase…. Time, money,battery, thinest …
sweet , I can take the Zuiko 50/1.8 off my OM-10 in my den :)
why not make the sensor larger?!
Their mft lenses wouldn't cover the sensor if it was bigger.
That rumored price point seems very, very good for some of features they are claiming in the spec. list. Will be very interesting to see samples from this puppy…
This might match up with many of the items on your wish list. Mine too.
Fast autofocus, good viewfinder, good color balance, good lenses to choose from, and half the size of a 5Dmk2. I would buy one right now if they let me.
I was expecting the OM-X. Now I'm disappointed.
Haha nice!
Great news. Finally the great mft prime lenses get the camera body they deserve. A pro Olympus body with a 12mm, 25mm, 45mm lens kit is a worthy contender to any system out there, the excellent lenses easily compensate for the smaller sensor.
I'd be interested if it had an APS-C sensor. M4/3 is too small, IMO.
The lenses, and camera are not too small!!!!!!!! :-) When we get the sensor breakthru..the system will be awesome!
Give my kids a ring when that happens since I wont be here ;) C'mon, laws of physics dictate that a bigger sensor will ALWAYS have better IQ, DR and high ISO performance. Your life will be much easier if you accept that :)
The physics dictate that larger pixels will have a higher potential. The size of the pixels has practically nothing to do with the size of the sensor.
Some APS-C sensors compete with FF sensors, you may be interested to learn.
Funny that you mention that. They could've taken the original Pen FT design and stuffed a half-frame sensor in there. It would be an SLR with a real optical viewfinder and a sensor that's a tad larger than APS-C, plus all the solid good looks of the original Pen.
Right on, man. And what lenses they were!
I've been a long time Nikon shooter, 4 months ago I invested on the Olympus Pen e-p3 and three fantastic primes. Needless to say it didn't take long for me to fall in love with this system. Yes I am absolutely excited to hear this news! In fact I own an old OM-10 film SLR, a sturdy and compact design which could translate to a stunning new Digital version. Can't wait !
It's another small sensor camera from a company with horrific financial problems. No spec and no sample images. Steve I think you have a dozen cameras on pre-order now !
I don't need 12 half baked street cameras in 2012. I am looking for one. My priorities are:
Mirror-less with APS size sensor.
Top IQ. The Fuji Xpro1 looks the best but has a Micky-mouse viewer.
Industry's best EVF. That is the Sony NEX 7 but it has only one quality lens.
Industry's smartest controls. Again the Sony.
Come on Japan. You are competing yourselves to death and satisfying nobody !
Well…most of the specs sound impressive…but if it is just the reworked G3 sensor (i.e. Oly tweaks the jpegs to look warm), then it is not that great. They are rumbling about this sensor having HDR….if that is true..then this camera could be a breakthrough…but no one seems to know where the sensor is coming from….we shall see. (yeah…Steve does have a lot of cameras on order…doesn't he…LOL). Yes…these are exciting times for photographers!!!!!!
Couldn't agree more with all your points, Bengt
Bengt, I agree about financial problems (and lack of control in that company too!) but what I want to ask you and alot of others on this forum is…What's with mirror hate?
You state that you want your next cameera to be mirroless, why?
If it's as good as it sounds, I think I may finally have found an AF partner to my M9. (Nothing so far has been quite right – X1 Pro, NEX-7, etc. – but this could be perfect. Here's hoping.)
I need a full frame digital OM-1 / Nikon FM, not one of these m4/3 toys! – seriously, I really need one.
Exciting times …
[img]http:[email protected][email protected][/img]
Hope the body plus kit price is lower than $1500 though. If the body is indeed around $1000, then Olympus usually charges less to have the lens in a kit. Maybe $1399/$1349?
Excellent, excellent news. I may be upgrading from my E-P3 to this if the sensor is a decent low-noise performer.
Indeed exciting! This Olympus sounds tons better than the Pana GX1 for instance. We'll see how it compares to the Canon G1 X… IQ-wise. Have you heard any rumors re: Leica X2, M10 & D-Lux 6 or whatever the announced "Leica surprises" could be?
And one more (perhaps silly) question … Could Nikon come out with an EVIL DX format APS-C sensor based camera? Would that be feasible from a technical perspective? Personally that would be awesome as I could use all my Nikon DX glass. Just a hopeful thought…
So definitely the new design wave is moving away from "strictly pocketable P&S" and pointing more and more towards photo enthusiasts with simply "smaller" cameras vis-a-vis DSLRs yet as powerful system cameras with ample array of exchangeable lenses, relinquishing the P&S market segment to the cell phone cameras.
You guys are right on. Unfortunately neither Nikon nor Canon has yet seen the light, even though the specification for the next big seller is on every enthusiasts lips.
We should all unite and voice our wishes claiming for the return of the Nikon F-Series, EVIL version!
Not F-series, S-series please! And not evil but angel version.
I have to say, this could get me back to m4/3 in a major way. Fingers crossed for an articulated screen and quieter shutter.
Yes, a quieter shutter would definitely peak my interest.
Olympus, send him one for review..PLEASE!
Fujifilm, send him an X Pro1 for review to.. Please!
I mean to compare…
I hope it's a full frame
Been a couple comments here about Full Frame and of course all the the time on four thirds forums. A couple of things I don't get with that logic – 1) everyone has been complaining about the high cost of an E-5 and no doubt with complain spending $1500 for this OM D with kit. The cheapest full frame is around $3000 without expensive lenses required. 2 ) Olympus users would be purchasing a third set of lenses to support Full Frame as niether 4/3 or micro 4/3 would be suitable. Now I don't think that is going to fly. Fact is that mirrorless style more compact and light weight cameras are the way of the future in my view – even for full time pros like myself (if I were in sports shooting it may be a different matter). I am personally really excited to hear of the impending release of the OM digital cameras – even with my investment in 4/3 lenses – although my micro 4/3 lenses and lens adaptors for other brands have also been increasing over the last couple of years.
Heart attack !! Can we fast forward to release please !!
Oh my! I have been praying for weatersealing in m4/3! That's one of the few disadvantages of my PEN, I don't trust it as soon as a bit of rain comes up..
wow if it can have the same form factor as the OM1. ( my kids, 13 and 18 have each a OM1 so they can learn the right way, well maybe the hard way too…). Lets hope they'll make the adaptor for old zuiko lens mount too.
The adaptor has existed since the dawn of m4/3. You can presently use any OM lens (..e.g; an OM shift lens or OM close-up extensions & macro lenses..) on ANY m4/3 camera.
Scroll 1/3 the way down to the shot of the Odeon cinema on this GX1 review page; http://tinyurl.com/74kc6hm ..that was shot with an OM shift on a Panny m4/3 camera.
If you know the u4/3rds system you will be aware that there is an adaptor as you request already available it is the MF-2.
..and, of course, there was the previous adaptor to fit OM lenses to Four Thirds cameras ..and the other adaptor which fits Four Thirds lenses to micro-four-thirds cameras!
(One of the great things about the original OM lenses was that the OM cameras had a very deep lens-to-film distance – to accommodate the very big, bright mirror – so OM lenses, with a suitable adaptor, can be fitted onto just about any other (shorter back-flange-distance) camera. People say how small Leica lenses are, but the original Olympus OM 100mm f2.8 is almost HALF the size of a Leica 90mm f2.8..! ..and with a nice short twist from 1 metre to infinity: smaller, lighter, easier to handle. High time Mr Maitani was canonised.. (..no, nothing to do with the Canon camera company..)
Very nice!
[…] The rumored announcement date is February 8th — less than a month […]
Can't wait to see it!
Isn't it just a mirrorless "SLR" then? Like the Sony A77 in a sense?
its more NEX-7 size then A77
so Olympus is building a Retro-Olympus-like-Sony-SLT-Mini-Sensor-Cam-4-Big-Bucks?
veeeeeerrryyyy cooolll.
who neez dat?
Can't we just get more Sensor first, please? I want a full-frame camera system below 2K. not mini-sensor above 1.2K.
The Fuji is not bad, but a MTF with EVF and the wonderful OM design, that's much more than I had hoped for. Since Nikon launched the D70 I had hoped they would create something like a FM-D with EVF, no mirror and a good sensor, instead we got the 1. Not bad, but not what I had been waiting for. So it's Olympus now. 25 years ago or something I chose Nikon over Olympus by a very small margin, this time it may be the other way round.
Very good news! Look forward to your review!
where is my credit card?
Yay Olympus has tricked us all into accepting a big bump for the EVF yay
They must be smirking.

News: Warlords learn to fight in winter environment
Story by Staff Sgt. Steve Cushman
MARINE CORPS MOUNTAIN WARFARE TRAINING CENTER, BRIDGEPORT, Calif. - The Warlords of 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division recently began training to fight in cold and austere locations at the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center.
The Mountain Exercise winter training package the Marines are participating in will provide them the tools to survive and fight in a mountainous and cold environment.
The Marines began their pre-environmental training and basic mobility training during a 10-day field exercise on January 18, 2014. During the training evolution the Marines will learn skiing, snowshoeing, skijoring, limited cliff assault, endurance at elevation and long-range day and night movements.
"So far we've learned basic survival skills and employing the different tools – skis, tents, and cold weather gear – it takes to live in a cold environment," said Sgt. Michael Martin, a platoon sergeant with Easy Company, 2nd Bn., 2nd Marines and Charlottesville, Va., native.
The training at MCMWTC helps the Marines get into an expeditionary frame of mind. The Marines learn this by moving to the training areas utilizing long range day and night hikes, carrying everything they needed to survive, their packs weighed approximately 90 pounds, up rugged mountain terrain.
"This is really a proving ground for our Marines," Martin said. "So far from Camp Lejeune, this gives our Marines and sailors a chance to prove themselves during the movements then again learning to ski and snowshoe."
In addition to the mountaineering training the Marines received, they also were taught how to integrate their infantry skills and learn what havoc the cold and mountainous environment can play on weapons and other equipment.
"We've gotten to employ some of our basic infantry skills effectively in a cold weather environment," Martin said. "During (casualty evacuation) drills, we learned some of the limitations we could face in this environment while working with helicopters."
The basic mobility training the Marines are learning during Mountain Exercise will culminate during a six-day field exercise where they will have the opportunity to put everything they learned to the test.
"Once we get to the FEX, we'll be employing all of our infantry skills effectively in a cold weather environment," Martin said.
The Warlords and its attached units are undergoing training at MCMWTC to prepare for the upcoming bilateral NATO training exercise Cold Response, which will take place in March of 2014 in Norway.

By this time of the year in Eastern Carolina, we should be seeing temperatures well into the 90s on a consistent basis. Yes we have seen 90s from time to time, but for the most part we've been running below normal, and it's been wetter than normal, keeping our temperatures in check. The reason for this "cooler" pattern is an unusually strong jetstream for this time of year. On a regular basis a trough of low pressure has dipped into the Mid-Atlantic region, not only cooling us down with rain showers, but severe weather on a more regular basis than normal. Case in point, July 17th when we had an EF-0 tornado near Washington in Beaufort county, along with numerous hail and wind reports. This type of weather usually ceases after May into early June.
The longer range models are showing more of the same pattern with another trough of low pressure for next week across our region, which will spell more rain, slightly cooler than normal temperatures, and perhaps another chance of severe weather.

"We should take up the rug," I suggest as my wife collapses from dropping off our girl, and I motion with one free elbow at the roomful of gaming controllers. "Just spread wood shavings."
"You have the best ideas," she says, scrunching up her face in a way that, just for a second, makes me think, as only a deluded 45-year-old failed rock star can, that my wife might be coming on to me.
But by the time we've finished clearing a path through the other debris, morning is sliding irrecoverably towards noon, meaning we've just an hour or so before the two teens lope in for lunch.
"Seems like ages," I grin, heaving an exaggerated sigh as I corner my wife in the kitchen, "since we've had the house to ourselves," and I wiggle my eyebrows in a way I think might be suggestive but, guessing by her worried expression, is probably just creepy.
"Um," she says dubiously just as the floor creaks upstairs and I realise I have forgotten about our 18-year-old son, 'the Lodger'. "They get half-term in college too?" I mutter dejectedly. "And the week AFTER the others?"
Honeymoon over before it began, we get on with life in a house with three full-time, live-in grown-ups, which, we find, is not without its challenges.
It soon emerges, for instance, how lacking my wife and I are in housekeeping skills. "We're out of milk," sighs the Lodger, shaking the dregs of a plastic bottle in the air. "And there's no food in the house," he adds darkly.
Our speech and grammar also fall pitifully short. We're quite accustomed to each other's verbal tics, but for the Lodger, they are a source of considerable irritation. "What EXACTLY are you trying to say?" he asks us, invariably annoyed.
Then in the evening when the others are dutifully dispatched, wife and I find ourselves on the sofa at last, wrestling with a cryptic combination of remote controls.
Here, the Lodger comes into his own. We relinquish responsibility for all things technological and simply wait obediently for him to come and make the shiny box with the moving pictures work, then while away the late hours together, three sets of legs joined at the hip, jostling for space.
In no time, college life resumes, which catches me out again as I wait in the kitchen in vain for the sound of the Lodger creaking around at noon.
In the evening the two of us sit staring at the stack of remote controls once more in utter bewilderment. "When's Dad coming home?" I say and we both giggle like children and begin stabbing random buttons until something comes on.

I am reading a char array from a file in and then converting it too a string using the String constructor.
read = fromSystem.read(b);
String s = new String(b);
This code has been in the program for ages and works fine, although until now it has been reading the full size of the array, 255 chars, each time. Now I am reusing the class for another purpose and the size of what it reads varies. I am having the problem that if it reads, say 20 chars, then 15, the last 5 of the previous read are still in the byte array. To overcome this I added a null char at the end of what had been read.
read = fromSystem.read(b);
if (read < bufferLength) {
b[read] = '\0';
String s = new String(b);
If I then did
It works, the end of the buffer doens't show. However, if I pass that string into a message dialog then it still shows. Is there some other way that I should terminate the string?

Additional Information
About ADIMLocated in Central America, ADIM is a small microfinance institution with a strong social focus. In the saturated microfinance market of Nicaragua, ADIM stands out for its emphasis on the holistic development of women as well as its provision of responsible financial services. Founded in 1989 by a small group of Nicaraguan women, this institution has remained true to its initial goal of providing its clients (90% of which are women) with an opportunity for economic growth, in addition to personal and professional empowerment. Supporting an ADIM borrower means contributing not only to the continued offering of the socially conscious services it provides, but also to the sustainable growth of a truly unique microfinance institution.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Enter your post description here.
By Jean Fan
Dan Schawbel, founder of Millennial Branding, just came out with a book called Promote Yourself: The New Rules for Career Success. It's an insightful read for anyone looking to take control of their career. Instead of waiting to be promoted, make it so there is no reasonable chance that you won't be. Instead of waiting for your resume to get you a job, learn how to use social media platforms to connect yourself with relevant people in your industry.
In this book, Schawbel focuses on helping you build skills: hard, soft and online. You always have to be learning, especially if you want to stand out in the job market. Before you promote yourself, he realizes, you have to have become someone worth promoting.
What I like about this book is this kind of honesty. Succeeding in today's world isn't easy, and Schawbel acknowledges that. Books in this genre can be fluffy ("Just be yourself, and you'll be fine!"). Promote Yourself does not do this. It encourages you to stay true yourself, yes, but it also pushes you to be better. Instead of merely feeding your ego, it offers concrete rules and strategies that will help you understand the realities of the working world -- and excel in it.
Schawbel is also unafraid of helping people face embarrassing and potentially destructive weaknesses. Addressing the negative perception surrounding self-promotion, he at one point highlights the difference between bragging and self-promotion. A few pages later, he gives you a test:
If you have fewer than three Trues, you're not terribly obnoxious. If you've got 3-5, you're moderately obnoxious, and if you've got six or more, you've got some serious obnoxiousness issues and you might want to fix that.
He is also open about how tendency to promote himself can sometimes backfire. He shares this experience with us so we are aware of it and won't make the same mistake:
This is a lesson I learned the hard way. Everyone I know knows that I'm a big self-promoter. Once I was out with some buddies at a bar and caught the eye of an attractive female bartender. After bringing our drinks she asked me what I do. I launched into a long recitation of all the things I've accomplished professionally. When I was done she looked at me and said, "That was really unattractive."
Most importantly, he's realistic. Very few people experience meteoric success. Usually, you just have to start from the bottom and work your way up. He's telling the truth even if it's not one that people want to hear:
You're the new kid and you're walking into an established company with established ways of doing things. Sure, you may be able to change things, but that'll take a while. In the meantime, drop that attitude and start paying more attention to your performance and making things happen for your company and yourself.
This kind of honesty is, for me, crucial. There are so many books that claim success can come easily -- too easily. It can't. Success requires hard work and diligence and self-awareness. This book strongly emphasizes this fact, and gives readers plenty of advice on how to embody these characteristics. At the same time, it is optimistic about how much we can achieve and how awesome we can be using the resources we have available to us.
Learning how to express how awesome you are is incredibly important in today's world. It allows you the power to connect other people and build a community that is every bit as awesome as you. This is the key to success. Promote Yourself motivates you to take action in doing this by offering specific advice as to how to kick ass at your career and build your online presence to support it. After reading it, I have ideas for what to do, rules for how to do them, and a vision for how useful social media platforms can be.
"Visibility," Schawbel writes, "creates opportunities." I want opportunities. Don't you?

text: The post-Korean scene in military novels shows some changes compared with the 1945-1953 period, apart from the increase in technological interest already treated at some length. One notable difference is that after Korea there are fewer "veteran's-return" stories, that is, novels dealing with the readjustment problems of homecoming veterans. (Two special cases, Condon The Manchurian Candidate and Morgan's One Star General, have been noted in chapter 3.) Historical circumstances account for most of the difference: fewer Americans participated in Korea, and a greater proportion of the Korean veterans were professionals or chose for other reasons to remain in the services after their stints in the war, like the decorated veterans in Peacock Valhalla, Roripaugh A Fever for Living, Drought Mover, Quirk No Red Ribbons, and Garrett Which Ones are the Enemy? The "forgotten" character of the war itself probably also had an impact- little public interest can be expected in problems of readjustment after a war that few people care about or even remember. Typically, in the novels mentioned, as in Mercer The Drummond Tradition, comparatively little use is made of the characters' experiences of the Korean War. At the same time it is not uncommon for authors of novels with no military connections or bearings to provide their protagonists with a past in the Korean War as a shorthand means of characterization or as a clue to certain reactions, relationships, and developments in the work. So do, for instance, Walker Percy in The Moviegoer ( 1961), Ken Kesey in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Brindisi, who steered Independiente to a league title in 1994, will be presented officially to the media as the team's new coach later, media reported.
The 62-year-old, a former Las Palmas, Boca Juniors and Argentina 1974 World Cup midfielder, replaces Americo Gallego who resigned at the weekend, and is set to sign until the end of next season.
Brindisi refused the club's initial offer on Monday but Independiente president Javier Cantero persuaded him to take the hot potato at a meeting that ended after midnight.
Cantero was helped by Argentine Football Association president Julio Grondona, an Independiente fan and former club chairman, who also spoke to Brindisi about "helping them out", reports said.
The Red Devils, along with Boca the only teams never to have been relegated in Argentina, are in the bottom three of the parallel relegation standings based on team's average points over three seasons.
Independiente have managed just two wins and nine points from nine matches in the "Final" championship and only 26 from 28 including the "Inicial" in the first half of the season.
Supporters threatened players last week and again on Friday night after they were held 1-1 at home by Union, direct rivals in the battle to avoid relegation to the second-tier Primera B Nacional where big rivals River Plate spent the 2011/12 season.
Brindisi was reported as wanting former Barcelona and Argentina centre back Gabriel Milito, who began and ended his playing career at Independiente, as his right-hand man.
Independiente's next match on Saturday is away to Atletico Rafaela, who are coached by former midfielder Jorge Burruchaga, a member of the team that won their seventh Libertadores Cup and the club world title in 1984.
