Street Photography in Paris by Paul Perton
Street Photography in Paris by Paul Perton
It's late May and I've been very glad of the central heating in my room when I've got up at 06:00 and stottered back into my room after 23:00 most nights. When I first arrived, I was puzzled that the central heating was still on. Now I'm very glad of it and on a number of occasions used the radiator as a clothes horse to get shirts and fleeces dry before my daily routine kicks-in once again.
Why am I mentioning this? I'm in Paris and was expecting the weather to be somewhat better, as did the thousands of tourists that flock every street, corner, restaurant, café and museum.
Peter Turnley is the reason I'm here. He's a sometime Paris resident going back three decades and a street photographer somewhat in the mould of Cartier-Bresson and Doisneau, albeit younger. Peter's street workshop started on Saturday and has eleven of us walking the streets photographing les Parisiennes as they go about their daily business.
The chilly and damp tourists are of little interest to us; they only hide the real city; ancient, full of light and entirely enchanting.
I haven't been in Paris for some years and find my hard-learned post-school colloquial French has completely deserted me. In it's place the awkward sounds and flat vowels of Afrikaans spring to mind as I try to make myself understood. This is a solo trip; Mrs P is at home dealing with builders and so, no use in the translation department.
Despite my clear British heritage, I lie a lot when I'm in France; "Non. J'habite á l'Afrique du Suid" being my biggest porkie. That immediately seems to put the French at ease and like me, which wouldn't usually happen were I to confess to my real pom roots. At that point experience has taught me that the French invariably sneer, or shrug, but either way, provide absolutely no assistance or succour, depending on what I seek. Pretending to be South African is expedient to say the least.
Curiously, the city does seem to have become somewhat less parochial and on this trip and I hear English spoken everywhere, including the Metro. That's a definite plus.
Back to the workshop. Peter Turnley is one of a rare breed; a photojournalist that has managed to forge a hard-won reputation for being in the right place at the right time, camera in hand. He is attempting to inculcate us with some of his street wisdom and I for one have felt a significant change in my photographic attitude since arriving here.
The ten others on the workshop are having similar experiences, with varying degrees of photographic success. Peter's style is as you'd expect for a successful photojournalist; direct and somewhat confrontational. The streets of Paris aren't a war zone, or a refugee camp in Somalia and I find myself wondering whether such an in-your-face style is justified. His photographs speak otherwise and we are all finding ways to adapt his guidance to our own styles.
After an orientation meeting and dinner on Sunday evening, the pattern of our days quickly takes shape; shoot, edit and submit a day's images for group discussion and selection, then it's back out on to the streets for another go-round.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are chilly, overcast and rainy by turns. As the week progresses however, the weather improves as do our skills. Those readers familiar with my early morning habits won't be remotely surprised to find I was out on the streets at around 07:00 – earlier than that and there really wasn't sufficient light pour la photographie.
Slowly, we each built a group of selected images on Peter's computer, the aim being 15 photographs from each of us that would be collected into an end-of-workshop show featuring the work of the entire group.
Interwoven with shooting and discussion were two guest discussions; Voya Mitrovic the Serbian-born darkroom superstar who printed for Cartier-Bresson and an entire galaxy of other Paris-based photographers of that era. He also prints for Peter and his work is full of the love, care and tonality that only a master of his craft can produce.
The second talk came from Gerard Uferas, a master photographer, with a passion for the opera, ballet and haute couture. By his own admission, a sensitive and complexed man, he showed us a collection of the most exquisite, textured and colored photographs. Unusually with a group of people all from various walks of life, the impact Uferas' work left every one of silenced and awed by it's sheer beauty.
Meanwhile, my meanderings saw almost 100km disappear under the soles of my shoes, countless cups of café créme, beer and as is to be expected, fine food. On the latter, I should mention a plât du jour lunch of lamb rib chops, a cassoulet fit for a king and on two separate occasions, a wing of exquisitely prepared skate with beurre noisette and capers. For food like that, I'd (almost) live here.
Friday was deadline day for our photographs, as the final show was due on Saturday morning, along with a viewing of the individual portfolios we bought from our various homes. An unusual decision to view this work so late in the day, defended by Peter who makes the valid point that to see this work before setting-out might reveal a professional, or specialist photographer, whose input could adversely impact the hopes and plans of everyone else. Good point.
So, that was it. a week in Paris. Howling wind and rain at La Défense, mellow afternoon sunshine at Pont des Arts, magnificent buildings and some of the worlds most visually interesting people. How bad could that be?

They are very good but what a great distance from your subject. Looking at the greats you should try to be closer to your subject
Dear Paul, the girl in the subtway is reading L'Armée des ombres, by Joseph Kessel, a novel about a group of french "resistant" during WW2. It's been adapted for the screen in the late 60's by Jean-Pierre Melleville. Both men were involved in this "army of shadows" prior to this work of art. A moving movie, more realistic than a fullblown action flick.
Kessel was a famous great reporter and novelist. Film maker was well known for his "film noir" works. Interesting to see a young woman reading this kind of litterature (best-seller of yesteryear but with a rather bleak atmosphere and dread theme). Thanks to your eye :-)

I really like the compositional and situational feel of your street photography. Comfortable, not confrontational, and definitely not "forced" if you will.
Excellent photography from the streets of Paris, and I am sure Peter Turnley's workshop must have been a great inspiration for you. The man is a great photographer, and his pictures from "Parisians" are just brilliant.
Excellent street photography and any camera can sing in your hands. Probably the closest tonality to film ever posted in Steve's site.
Mooi geskryf en pragtige fotos Paul. Ek's altyd verbaas (en moet glimlag) waar ek my ou landsgenote teekom. As 'n "soutie" wat nou oorsee woon gee dit vir my ook kans om my ou tweede taal to oefen. Ja Mev. Lourens, tog nog nie vergeet nie. Good effort Paul, I'm lucky enough to go to the city of lights for a few days every Spring and without fail am enchanted each time during my stay. Your photos also tell me I need to spend less time taking photos of the Sacre Couer etc. and more time of everything else. Good stuff man.
Dankie Mike.
Love the last shot in particular. Great work
Belles photos. Cela fait longtemps que je veux m'inscrire pour un workshop avec Peter Turnley… :)
Thanks for sharing your wonderful images and narrative! I am going to book-mark this!
Great post and very nice images. I would say pic 3 is my favourite as the gent is mimiking the statue. More like Doisneau, well done.
Love them all- Fabulous.
Great images in true Turnley style, Peter! I envy you getting to Turnley's workshop. It is something I have wanted to do for a long time but the finances were never there. Try as I might I cannot pick a favorite over the others. Each one stands on its own for different reasons. Thanks for sharing your experience and images!!!
Also agree on the umbrella shots, especially that last one. Such a great design. I follow on flickr so I've seen some of these, but many are new to me. Nice work!
Great pictures, I love the one of the lady in the jacket reading her book! And yes as others have said so good that there is no mention of equipment used as it does not matter, rarely does:)
Très belles images, félicitations. Heureux de lire ce bel article.
Je vis dans un petit village du sud-ouest de la France au sein duquel cohabitent 14 nationalités différentes. Pourtant, inutile ici de dire "Je vis en Afrique du Sud" pour susciter l'intérêt. Cela doit être une réaction purement parisienne…
Nice shots, specially with the bad and boring weather we suffer since two month !!
I leave near and work in Paris, and perhaps too used to this town for seeing things like you. Interesting work, far away from "clichés".
There is snow, now. If you like… ;)
2 fantastic umbrella shots…they both say a lot to me…weather wise and what those 2 were feeling with the wet and gloomy weather…and yeah agree with everyone..nice touch not talking about gear. but somehow your pictures make me very curious to at least know your lens..was it prime or zoom.. :)
See above: brand new Sony NEX-7 (I'd been using an NEX-C3 for several months prior to this) and mainly a Zeiss 25mm f2.8 Biogon.
Great post, one of the best I've seen on here of late.
The last image is the standout. You saved the best for last.
+1 for no gear porn. I'm really over it too.
Although if someone could actually take a decent photo with the new Leica M, I suppose I'd be interested in that… Leica: Please let me trial…
Nice post and story, and some wonderful shots! And well done on not bringing the gear into it. I really enjoyed reading this piece.
Guys, do any of you have any insight into street photography in Paris in the winter outside of the tourist seasons? I'd be ever so interested in checking that scene out. Also, what was it like for any of you, not being residents there, in Paris at that time of the year…
I was in Paris in March a good few years ago, before I had developed any real interest in photography. It was cool. I think if you can find the right time and situation to go, like anywhere else, just go! Even if the photography time doesn't turn out as planned for whatever reason, time spent travelling somewhere new is never wasted.
I was last in Paris in 1967. Your photos make me want to return with a camera.
+1 for zero gear talk!
Great post. These are excellent photographs and the post is about the image making and not the gear.
I also like the picture on the Metro of the young woman reading-natural and well framed by other bodies.
It's so refreshing to see some nice pics and not a single talk about equipment. Thanks my friend
Can you share some of the things you learned?
Would be interesting to read it.
'…I lie a lot when I'm in France; "Non. J'habite á l'Afrique du Suid" being my biggest porkie.'
You also don't disclose any technical details. Is this a color-b&w conversion? Digital/analog captures? Camera/lens/film/workflow? I don't see the motivation of Paul's post other than a venue to show off his Parisian travel and make us wonder about what's missing and what else are lies.
Envy is not the best source of inspiration when writing a post, Jonathan.
Besides, I find it refreshing not to have a whole discussion about gear: It allows focusing on the pictures and the story around them.
Belles photos, Paul. J'ai aussi beaucoup aimé ton site, très sobre et apaisant. Bravo!
What? Please, you want to know that the wonderful tattoo image was taken with the exotic and almost unattainable monochrome M? Suit yourself brother, but I'm perfectly happy imagining it was made with the NEX 6, a camera, um, I own. As for showing off his work, geez, don't all photographers want to do the same?
Thanks for the comment. Kit? Out of the box Sony NEX-7 (I'd been using an NEX-C3 for several months prior to this) and a Zeiss 25mm f2.8 Biogon.
All images shot RAW, converted using SilverEFX Pro.
I kind of admired the fact that the post was about photography and culture and not equipment.
Beautiful images, BTW.
Great pictures !
Just came back from a trip there in December, absolutely loved walking late nights and shooting in the dark !
Sorry you have had such a bad experience with the locals.. Being a Parisian myself, I always -and so do most my friends there- provide assistance to the occasional tourist in dismay.. Keep trying ! NYC in my experience, is far worse :-)
Anyway, you seem after all very inspired by the local subjects, so that's good. Fun city to be clicking in, isn't it ?
Paris is much, much better than it used to be, although there's still a whiff of Les Anglais, the rolled eyes and shoulder shrug. That said, I really enjoyed my week there and am am planning a return soon.
NYC? Love it, but the New Yorkers are very, very aggressive and want to be paid for any and everything. These days I avoid it if I can.
The idea that french people hate english people is a myth. We love english humour, english music, english cinema and the english way in general. But Paris is an exhausting city and alas, parisians are not really kind with tourists (well with anyone really).
By the way, I think that much of the hate is on the other side of the channel. You'd nether see a french newspaper bashin england on its front page.
I agree with Alain.
I've had the pleasure of photographing in Paris for over 25 years and have never encountered any anti-English bias.
4th one is brilliant! Love the smiling face that forms from the lights and umbrella!
Fully agree! This one is outstanding : )
great street photography. especially the book reader on the train. well done
Nice photos and sounds like a great week.
So who do support world cup time….Springboks or Poms?
No no… it is spelled "bokeh"
the last photo is great!
I love the photo of the cheeky man in front of the Tattoo shop.
The umbrella photos are great!
Lovely pictures

Full Story...
Flatboaters in the late 1700s used to pull into the still waters of Bayou Sara creek where it emptied into the Mississippi River to get out of the river's strong current and spend a peaceful night on the way to New Orleans. Often these same boatmen also stopped there on their walk back up the river to wherever they started their journey; their boats, with no engine power, could hardly travel upriver against the current, so the flatboats were broken up and sold for lumber, setting the crew afoot as they headed for home.
And so a little shantytown sprang up and took its name from the creek, . . . .
Few of the folks who enjoy community festivals and get-togethers on the landscaped grounds of beautiful Parker Park in historic downtown St. Francisville stop to think of the history of that particular property, but if these oaks could talk! In 1870 Sara Mulholland Flower sold her 40-arpent property called Magnolia Glen, located right in the heart of town where the well-travelled roads leading from Woodville, Baton Rouge and Bayou Sara converged. The buyer was a young dentist from New York, Dennison Stocking, who had moved to Pointe Coupee as a 22-year-old, served four years in the Confederate army, then moved across the river to St. Francisville. There he set up his dental chair in one room of the old Magnolia Glen house and advertised that he would attend all calls on the coast (meaning the Mississippi River) from New Orleans to Natchez, as well as "the back country when accessible with a buggy."
"All you need is love" say the promotional posters, but you'd better bring your credit cards too, because the popular WAGS AND WHISKERS GALA Saturday, August 1, from 6 to 10 p.m. at Hemingbough just south of St. Francisville, is the major fundraiser for the West Feliciana Animal Humane Society and the "Bo" Bryant Animal Shelter.

After hunting down London's most infamous serial killer in 09's Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper, the master of deduction returns in a shockingly M-rated adventure from European developer Frogwares. There's a development to the appealing presentation, puzzle design and simplistic interface that can only exist by the developers listening to feedback from fans and learning from their previous mistakes.
The Testament of Sherlock Holmes takes place in London of 1898, with a conspiracy attempt to depict Holmes as a thief and a murderer. These charges lead the people of London to doubt Holmes's integrity since he is incapable of discrediting the charges against him. Even Dr. Watson is unsure of his partner's intentions. Overall, the story holds up fairly well aside from a few loose plot threads. Each little twist and turn will make the player want to push forward in order to see what's going to happen next. The voice acting and dialogue is mediocre at best, with a few conversations that are cringe worthy but nothing that will truly deter players from completing the game.
As well as an original story, Testament also bears a radical graphic overhaul of Frogwares' game engine, which includes richly detailed HD environments and three distinct control methods to suit different playing styles. Character animations have also slightly improved but they still appear robotic and stiff. Dynamic facial expressions during conversations have improved as well but lip movements don't sync with the words being spoken. The soundtrack is rather bland as it mainly consist of the same classical track continuously looping for an entire area. Traveling through London is also brought to life thanks to bustling NPCs as you visit various locations, from a muggy prison to filthy Whitechapel.
Over the course of several cases, locating evidence is fairly easy, as long as you're paying close attention to your surroundings. As in previous installments, the puzzles are essentially split into two sections: deduction puzzles and logic puzzles. During investigations, the deduction puzzles allows players to use the 'deduction system' – an interactive flowchart that keeps track of main areas, and then poses related questions based on the evidence found. After analyzing the situation, finding the right answers will then lead you to the proper conclusion. These puzzles are story-related and help progress the narrative. However for those who need a little guidance, there's a hint mechanic called Holmes' "sixth sense." It will highlight all the available items you can interact with in the environment, including clues, people and other various set pieces. It is occasional helpful, but more often than not it was of no use to the problems obstructing my progress. When combined with the game's 'deduction system', the 'sixth sense' feels less cheap and more like an extension of Holmes's cleverness – a result of his elevated consciousness.
The logic puzzles take a little bit more thinking to resolve and mainly consist of solving locks on doors, opening chests and secret passages, as well as performing various forensic investigations. The level of difficulty and sophisticated designs are well thought out, and also fit well within the time period. Although a majority of these puzzles will leave you pulling out your hair, they do feel as though they were implemented only to extend the length of the game. If you lack the patience, Frogwares added the ability to skip some of these puzzles if you get stuck but skipping them only takes away the experience. It may take some time but eventually you will get everything right if you just try every combination. No actual skill is needed to solve them since you don't get penalized for taking too long. With enough patience and endless amounts of trial and error you will eventually get it right.
Occasionally you'll get to play as Dr. Watson, and as you progress further through the adventure. There's also a time where you'll play as a basset hound – clever, but odd. When you do take control of the good doctor the task that you need to accomplish are ridiculously bland as they consist of fetching objectives like collect a map or grab a book off the shelf. Hopefully in the next entry we will be able to tackle an adventure through co-op with one player controlling Holmes while the other controlling Dr. Watson. Hint..hint Frogwares.
Overall The Testament of Sherlock Holmes is a fairly lengthy experience, clocking in around 15 hours to complete. Fans of the series should be happy to know that this is the best Sherlock Holmes adventure so far thanks to its varied locations, puzzle assortments and intriguing plot. In the end it is all "Elementary, my dear Watson" – sorry I couldn't help myself.
Editor's Note: The Testament of Sherlock Holmes was reviewed using a XBOX 360 copy of the game. If further investigation reveals any substantial differences between the 360 edition and the PS3 edition of the game, this review will be updated to reflect those differences.

KPMG has been recognised for forward-thinking leadership and exceptional commitment to client support.
What start-ups need to consider? Where to get access to information? What events they can consider to attend?
Nowhere is the customs duty and overall indirect tax landscape more complex than in Asia Pacific. In this part of the world, multinational businesses must be able to skillfully manage customs-related challenges to maintain their competitiveness in a constantly shifting market. Without the proper tools and knowledge, companies may be overtaken by competitors with more cost-efficient customs processes or, in cases of non-compliance, face heavy penalties from customs authorities.
Successfully navigating the customs environment in Asia Pacific requires companies to prepare and implement a detailed customs management plan. This must be based on a comprehensive knowledge of the customs rules and practices in various countries and complemented by a proactive outlook to adapt quickly to frequent regulatory changes.
This publication will familiarise companies with the important elements necessary to craft and implement a proactive and cost-effective customs management plan. It touches on critical areas where savings opportunities can be realised (e.g. unbundling of invoice values, usage of Free Trade Agreements) and where compliance issues frequently arise.
Also, in view of the diversity of rules across the region, it also provides a detailed overview of the customs regime in 18 selected Asia Pacific countries, including India, China and the United States. This is expected to assist companies in identifying potential areas of risk and opportunity in their cross-border operations, and in formulating a cost-effective plan to manage their customs functions.

Don't know what it is, but this guy just looks bad ass.
It's an original character from a short story anthology I wrote. I gave him a basic description and bad sketch I did and he came back with this. Man's a genius.
Wow, yeah he's a phenom no doubt. Do you know if he works for commission as well? He's tremendous
Great work. I really love your art. Great effect, great shadows and lines.
Are you a professional?

Whenever I hear someone say there is nothing to do in our local communities I share with them all the fun events planned by nonprofit organizations. Many of these activities have zero or minimal admission, hoping generous visitors will buy lots of raffle tickets, auction items or food and services for sale.
Suggested donation amounts help us determine a fair amount to give in trade for the fun we are about to have. Whether it's a concert or a car show, almost every weekend there are places to be and people to see that will also benefit others in our towns.
Because I try to support as many nonprofits as possible, I get to see the many creative events they organize. Last month, CAST (Catch a Star Theatrical) Players held a fundraiser to support its nonprofit community theater dedicated to bringing quality theater and performing arts education to The Pass area.
During intermission of Joanne Juliet Lapointe's one-woman Broadway-themed show, a live auction included bidding on a cameo role in CAST's next production. The winner was Teri Meyers-Kelman and her performance will be in "Same Time, Next Year" opening Oct. 25.
"The first rehearsal went great," said Meyers-Kelman. "I am so excited about this opportunity. This is worth so much more than the $125 I paid for it in the auction. So, so much fun."
Meyers-Kelman moved to Beaumont two years ago after living in Scottsdale, Arizona for about 13 years.
"We really loved it there but moved to be closer to family, specifically our almost 10-year-old grandson," she said.
She wasn't aware of the onstage opportunity before attending the fundraiser but knew she would be bidding on it once she knew about it. She said she was willing to big all the money she had in her wallet because she really wanted to win it.
"It has been my lifelong dream to be an actress," said Meyers-Kelman, 60. "I do have prior theater experience from many years ago. I was a speech and drama major in college and was involved in several performances."
Living in Long Island and working in New York City until her early 30s, she has seen many Broadway plays, "Same Time, Next Year" among them.
"I don't know how things will work out with CAST Players but my absolute dream would be for them to ask me to come back to audition for a future project," said Meyers-Kelman.
Directed by Richard Meinhold, the comedy in two acts features Laura Negin and Daren Prescott.
"We are delighted to let (Teri) 'strut her stuff,'" said Meinhold.
Performances will be Oct. 25 and 26 and Nov. 1, 2, 8 and 9 at 7:30 p.m. and Oct. 27, Nov. 3 and 10 at 3 p.m. All shows will be at the Beaumont Women's Club Community Center, 360 E. Sixth Street.
An opening night special event will include dinner with the show for $30 per person. Tickets for all other performances are $12 each.
For information and reservations, 951-315-4253 or www.castplayers.org.

Visible Bodies: Twin Cities captures transgender experiences
The local leg of the project is currently in the early development stages. To help get things off the ground, the group of is hosting an Indiegogo campaign that runs through Monday.
With the Minnesota exhibition, Visible Bodies TC hopes to photograph 40 individuals. So far, they've raised $2,745, and their goal is set at $4,000. Money raised through the campaign will go directly towards materials to print and frame photography, and to hopefully pay photographers minimum wage. Funds collected on the site will benefit the group regardless of whether or not they hit their goal.
Are you interested in participating? In addition to seeking volunteers, the organization is also accepted applications for those open to modeling. You can apply on VB's website.

A Lincoln County man is accused of assaulting his wife, leading deputies on a high-speed chase, then eventually turning himself in.
Deputies responded to a domestic dispute call on May 6.
When they arrived at the Hulls Grove Church Road home, officers were told that Phillip Lewis Rohr had assaulted his wife then left in a white BMW.
A deputy spotted the car on Hulls Grove Church Road and began to follow it. Rohr ran a stop sign, passed a car in a no-passing zone and hit speeds up to 90 mph, according to the Lincoln County Sheriff�s Office.
After nearly four miles, the deputy gave up the chase.
Officers called Rohr�s cell phone, but he did not answer.
Deputies took out arrest warrants against Rohr, and on Wednesday he turned himself in at the Lincoln County Magistrate�s Office.
Rohr has been charged with speeding to elude police, driving left of center, assault on a female, communicating threats, failure to stop for a siren, fail to stop at a red light/stop sign, improper passing, careless and reckless driving and speeding.
Rohr is in Lincoln County Jail under a $5,000 secured bond.

Best chance for U.S. to host World Cup is 2022
FIFA will name hosts for both the 2018 and 2022 World Cups of soccer when its executive committee convenes in December 2010. The United States and Mexico joined 11 other countries that formally filed their intentions by Monday's deadline, either as single or joint bids.
Here are some questions and, hopefully, answers about the process, politics and prospects in what figures to be a spirited battle for 2018 and 2022.
Will the U.S. get one?
The best answer lies somewhere between probably and definitely, although 2022 is a far better bet than 2018.
Europe has hosted 10 of the 18 World Cups and has never gone more than eight years without one. With 2010 in South Africa and 2014 in Brazil, that would be 12 years. And with eight of the 24 members of the FIFA's executive committee being European, it's easy to predict they won't let it lapse to 16 years by sending 2018 elsewhere.
That would leave the United States, which hosted in 1994, and Mexico of the CONCACAF region to battle five candidates from the Asian confederation for 2022: Australia, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea and Qatar.
Japan and South Korea co-hosted to lukewarm reviews in 2002; Indonesia has played in one World Cup, and that was in 1938 as the Dutch East Indies; the average high temperature in Qatar in June is 108 degrees; and Australia, with a population of 21 million, may not carry enough marketing oompf and would be a second straight Commonwealth nation to host if England gets 2018.
The best news for the Americans is who didn't bid: China. FIFA might not be able to resist the marketing potential of 1.2 billion people.
There also is the South Africa factor. The vote for 2018 and 2022 comes a few months after South Africa hosts a World Cup in a country mired with infrastructure, transportation, security and other logistical issues. And with 2014 heading to a nation (Brazil) facing similar organizational obstacles, you'd think the executive committee will steer toward safe harbors.
So who gets 2018?
England is considered the front-runner, at least by the English media, but don't underestimate the anti-Brit sentiment that pervades across the continent. There are joint bids from Spain/Portugal and the Netherlands/Belgium as well a stand-alone entry from Russia, all with their own positives.
Blatter and FIFA keep flip-flopping their position on joint bids, first welcoming them and more recently saying they will be considered only if there is no suitable single-nation candidate. That could torpedo Belgium and the Netherlands, which can't go it alone, or force Spain to drop Portugal.
Another variable is the 2009 vote for the host of the 2016 Summer Olympics. If Madrid wins, that could further derail a solid Spanish World Cup bid many insiders predict would rally Continental Europe against England.
And don't count out Russia, which has ever-increasing amounts of money and international influence. Europe's largest country has never hosted a World Cup or European Championships.
Is Mexico a factor?
Short answer: No.
Mexico already has hosted two World Cups, in 1970 and as an emergency replacement for Colombia in 1986, but its last-minute entry was a bit of a surprise. Monday's deadline was merely an "expression of interest," and Mexico could be gone when the detailed bid packets with stadium and infrastructure plans are due in mid-2010.
"If we were today to catalog the top 50 stadiums in North America," U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati said on a media teleconference Monday, "I'm going to leave it (to) everyone on the call to decide how many of those are in the United States. I'd say it's the majority, the very strong majority."

I've never worn a bike helmet
I used to wear a helmet, but have stopped
I've always worn a helmet
I didn't wear a helmet, but now do
I sometimes wear a helmet depending on the conditions
Just checking in... are people trying to talk other people out of a helmet? Or are people just saying they don't need a helmet, leave me alone? I wear a helmet because I'm going bald on top of my head and my ball cap doesn't stay on at 45mph.
With a side of "I don't need a helmet, leave me alone."
I know next to nothing. I am frequently wrong.
I would like to take the next few moments and be insulting to everyone, but no one in particular.
You all suffer from symbolic oedipal anxiety combined with defensive infantile fantasies and fixated neurotic processing over helmets. Your mothers were hamsters and your fathers smelt of elderberries, you bunch of dweeby lunatics who have delusions about being the degenerate fruit baskets you all are, in addition to being cross dressing dysfunctional buffoons riding around in those bibs you bunch of wrinkly rejects.
And I leave you with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF3kAoLusAg
I thought I would relieve the nauseating boredom a bit.
And I suppose I disdain folks so dense they can't tell the difference between disdain for helmet wearers vs. disdain for the above kind of folks who also happen to be wearing helmets.
Hope that helps clear things up for you.
I don't know anyone who has simply called someone an idiot for wearing a helmet and nothing more. I think nearly, if not everyone, talking about helmet limitations fully admit that there are some situations where they may be helpful. As I said, I even wear one in some limited situations.
Meanwhile, and what the real point of the quoted text was, people are being insanely hypocritical by willingly sacrificing their own optimum safety (by not choosing optimal helmets for safety) and then proceeding to deride people who make a similar decision and decide to forgo one altogether. "Organ donor" or "Darwin candidate" seems to be mentioned a lot about people who just choose not to use one.
And if you've never been lectured about not wearing a helmet, you haven't not worn one often . I've been lectured at from cyclists on the MUP, to coworkers as I walk the bike in, to self appointed safety-police of the Internet.

French showing proper use of helmets.
So are egotistical people that think they know everything!!!
I think it might be possible to divide cyclists into two groups: those who aren't convinced helmets are necessary, and those who crash because they ran over a road reflector.
1980ish Free Spirit Sunbird fixed * 1996 Mongoose IBOC Zero-G * 1995ish Park Pre Pro 825 * 1997 KHS Comp * 1990-ish Scapin * Lemond Buenos Aires Triple
I think this conversation may have taken a turn for the worse, lol. There's no reason to be hostile over someone else's personal protection. Please, save the hostility for the lazy driver that is not watching where he is going and claims he 'didn't see you' despite all your reflective gear.
Nashbar AT-3 MTB, upgraded
Mongoose MTB to beat up
Nashbar Road bike, custom
Maroon cruiser bike to 'take it easy'
Weirdly missing the point.
Regardless of the activity, people are not going to tend to use or prefer using closed helmets, including the "skater" types, for high-effort sport
Thus, Monster Pete's notion that the closed "skater" types might be better could be true but it's not relevant because people won't use them.
If people are using closed helmets (including the "skater" type), they are not typically doing high-effort sports in them.
(The fact that there are exceptions, such as triathlon helmets, doesn't mean that is wrong either.)
