New kid with D3000
Wassup Guys, I just got a Nikon D3000 as a present from my parents for getting a 3.8 GPA. I am into car photography as in taking pictures of random cars at meet, and once in a while actual photoshoot. Was wondering what is a good lenses I should be investing in? Thanks

Hi Brian,
I would recommend you use your kit lens for a while. They are actually provide excellent IQ (Image Quality). With some experience under your belt you will have a better idea of what your kit lens is capable of and it's limitations as well. Then you will have some insight as to which lens or lenses will be beneficial to you based on the subject and ambient conditions. You might also want to include a budget as new lens prices start at a little over $100.00 and can climb to over $10,000.00.
Good Luck and Enjoy your Nikons!
Best Regards,

Hi Brian,
You might want to check your D3000 users manual for approved cards or Nikon USA's website for the latest list. Though just about any card will work in the camera.
I prefer Sandisk cards as they have proven themselves reliable over the last 5 or so years. Others prefer Lexar. They are most likely the leading brands. The faster cards will allow you to clear the buffer a little quicker though how fast the D3000 is capable of writing I don't know. Faster card will also allow you to download the images to your computer faster if you use a UDMA enabled card reader. Know your retailer as there have been many problems with counterfiet cards being sold on e-bay and other internet retailers.
Make sure you format the card in the camera before you use it.
Good Luck and Enjoy your Nikons!
Best Regards,

The memory cards do not affect Image Quality whatever.
Under some very fast shooting sessions you might (maybe) will see a difference in the speed and responsiveness of the camera but I can't imagine you being in those situations real soon.
Any class six card is fast enough and I settled on an 8 gig card cause i thought that was the best price value for capacity.
Bottom line, speed and capacity are the issues with cards, not IQ.
Check out this thread, its very helpful.
#6. "RE: New kid with D3000" | In response to Reply # 0
the kit lenses (18-55, 55-200, whichever or both) are good lenses for the D3000 to see where you stand. If you're moving up from a point and shoot digi (ie: coolpix-type), you're going to already be possessing a much larger sensor (i believe 16mm x 24mm). This larger sensor will also help your shooting by allowing a better representation of the actual colors to be "recorded". While they aren't 2.8 zooms, for shows that are outdoors, even at the longer range of the zoom, there should be plenty of natural light to be usable at ISO 400 / xx-mm @ f/5.6, perhaps even at ISO 200, depending on the sunshine outside.
Get some use with the kit lens you have, and if you need more zoom than what it came with, look for some basic, or "one step above basic" lenses. Just make sure they are AF-S lenses (ie: the lens has a focusing motor inside itself), because AF and AF-D lenses won't focus due to the body lacking a screw-driver mechanism on the F-mount. Essentially, for new lenses, buying AF-S will save you a lot of trouble and agony.
Enjoy it!

Congratulations on the good grades. Keep up the great work!
For cars I find that I typically want to "go wide" or "go long".
By that, I mean that to capture images of a whole car - frequently indoors or in close quarters - you probably need a lens in the 16 or 18mm range. The 18-55 would fit that criteria. If you are indoors or in dim light, VR is a huge help.
I also like to shoot specific design elements. This requires a bit of a zoom lens. The starting point would be a 55-200 or a 70-300.
There are a wide range of choices depending on your budget. Also keep in mind that your needs will evolve. Used gear is not a bad way to save money.

"...may be the best thing I've seen on stage in Atlanta in years." — Eleanor Ringel Cater, Atlanta Business Chronicle

Discovered by the Alliance Theatre in the Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition's second year, Kenneth Lin has become one of the most widely commissioned and produced Asian-American writers in America. He is also making waves in other media – he is a writer on the Emmy-winning Netflix series House of Cards.
In this critically acclaimed new political drama described by the New York Times as "absorbing," a potential political star is being groomed for a big race in New York City. But a former girlfriend might tarnish this young politico's sterling reputation if a political fixer can't find her price. A thriller of a play written with an astute and blisteringly contemporary eye for dialogue that contains surprises up to the final curtain, this wonderful play will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Photos: Canelo, Trout Go Face To Face in San Antonio
By Miguel Rivera
Junior middleweight champions Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and Austin "No Doubt" Trout went face to face at the first leg of their Texas tour to promote their April 20th showdown at the Alamodome in San Antonio. Canelo (41-0-1, 30KOs) and Trout (26-0, 14KOs) will stake their WBC/WBA championships in the fight.

Panama: A Week at the Iconic Canopy Tower
November 9-16, 2016
Optional extension to November 20, 2016
Leaders: Stephanie Mason & Carlos Bethancourt
Panama's geographic location as the link between South and Central America makes it a land of exceptional biological diversity. The Panama Canal brings income to the nation, making it more prosperous than its neighbors and allowing the country to initiate ambitious park and conservation programs. Explore Central Panama with us and see some of the amazing diversity of birds and other tropical wildlife to be found in the pristine rain forests and related habitats. Our base of study is the remarkable Canopy Tower, a small ecotourism lodge built into the frame of a radar facility formerly run by the US Military during the Cold War era. We will take day trips to various nearby habitats, filling a week with explorations of rich tropical habitats. An optional extension visits the Canopy Lodge, a beautiful sister facility located in the low mountains (2,400 feet in elevation) just three hours to the west. Birds will be a primary focus of our trip, and we're sure to see an incredible variety of tropical birds along with migrants from North America. But we'll also take time to observe other elements of the natural world (mammals, insects, and plants) and human history (our itinerary includes a full-day visit to Panama City) in this biologically and historically rich region.

Bottom side the Binos inflicted their only Irn-Bru Third Division defeat so far this season at Forthbank in October on what was an embarrassing day for the Light Blues. But goals from David Templeton and Andy Little secured the victory on Saturday and allowed Ally McCoist's men to make amends for the shock reverse.
Hutton said: "There was a slight feeling of wanting to get our own back on them after beating us at their own ground. We went out there and certainly got our own back."
Stirling survived wave after wave of pressure from Rangers in the first half before Templeton opened the scoring after 59 minutes. Little then sealed the win in the final minute but only after Albion substitute Josh Flood hit the woodwork in a tense moment for Gers.
Hutton added: "When you don't get that early goal and you keep pressing for a goal, you start to worry slightly and wonder if it's going to come. But we were confident if we kept playing the way we were playing it would eventually come.
"We should have won by more, we had a good few chances, but we just wanted a good performance and a good win. Apart from not getting more goals, I thought we did that and had a good game."
Hutton knew Rangers had to deliver the points on a day when a crowd of 49,913 packed into Ibrox as the club celebrated 140 years, with around 40 former players back in Glasgow for the occasion.
He said: "The gaffer said to us beforehand that he wanted us to go out and give a good account of ourselves and get the win and do it for the fans. We did that so we are happy."
The midfielder was also happy to see Templeton on the scoresheet in his first start since suffering ankle ligament damage in mid-September.
He said: "He's had a couple of tough months after being out injured and was frustrated by that. It's good to have him back and for him to be on the scoresheet as well. We're delighted for him. I'm sure he will go on to score a few more."

Corporate Advocacy Program™
In the Summer of 2011 I had Dave do some minor repairs on my outboard. Needless to say the bill was very high but I figured it just goes with owning a boat.
Later I had to have additional work performed so I picked another shop which has high recommendations from WestMarine suppliers.
I found that the parts that were used to repair my outboard were of questionable quality. And had to be replaced again. I began to learn that this is what Flum/Clovis Marine does.
They charge a very high going rate ($98.00 an hour) for their repair but the repair work is bad. The parts are cheap. The invoice is vague at best.
My new shop is keeping track of boat owners who have been ripped off by Clovis Marine. The list is getting longer and longer.
I support the court action pending against Clovis Marine and will contribute my experience to the
courts for their review.
Spread the Word! Clovis Marine will rip you off.

Clovis Marine will cheat the customer. Clovis Marine cheated customers. Sadly--I was a party to some of the conduct towards customers boats.
Clovis Marine jacks the prices and hourly rate sky high. Customers were charged for time not spent on their boat.

EVERY shop in the Central California has a long list of angry customers.
Flum is a crook.
The reputation earned by Clovis Marine stands. Poor quality repairs, over priced parts, vague work orders and sloppy work.
Shop after shop has heard this time and time again. Clovis Marine will rip off the unsuspecting consumer. Flum does not stand behind his work.
Evidence is overwhelming.
Clovis Marine's reputation stands.
Arrogant. Mean spirited. Flaky. Angry. Poor quality. High prices. Work that has to be re-repaired.
I hope Flum/Clovis Marine gets their butts sued in court.
The ex employee of Clovis Marine said it all. Thieves and crooks. We thank the ex employee for their input and confirming what was already known by the many good boat shops in Fresno--
Clovis Marine is a bad place to take you boat.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Clovis Marine has been providing valley boat owners with excellent service and exceptional craftsmanship for over 18 years. Youll find our 5000 sq ft shop is equipped with the special tools necessary to make quality repairs. Our technicians are factory trained. We use only OEM "manufacturer's parts", nothing aftermarket.
If Clovis Marine did anything wrong on a repair they would be more than happy to make it right. You don't build a successful business if all you do is rip people off.
It is amazing how one ignorant person with too much time on their hands can spend so much time and energy trying to spread rumors.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Just seeing if there were any ladies out there just now researching and beginning IVF. I need support. I will be going to an appt soon. I am still trying to decide who to go to. It's very stressful and confusing. I feel like I might make the wrong decision. Anyway, I would love girlfriends on this journey!! I lost both my fallopian tubes due to Ectopic pg. My dh and I have been trying for over 6 years. I have an 11 year old, so I know I can carry a baby. I feel like I would be the "ideal" canididate for IVF. But, it always seems like the worst happens to me...so I can't be sure! I just want a child with my dh sooo very badly. I dream about it....I need people who can relate,,,Who wants to chat and have support throught this??

Hi Lori,
I have an appointment next week to talk to the RE about IVF. We've been doing IUI but no luck and DH put his foot down this month and said no more IUI's. He wants to try IVF because we have a higher chance of getting pregnant and the RE says it's a good option but I've been dragging my feet about it
Melissa (35)
TTC #1 - 3 yrs
7 IUIs 3/11-3/12
IUI # 4 8/11 m/c 8 wks
IVF # 1 8/12 m/c 9 wks
I have my first appt..the consultation on May 9th! I'm so excited!!! Well, and nervous. I have a cyst right now from the blood vessels bursting from my EP. It needs to go AWAY!! It has to be gone to start anything, but I can at least get all the paperwork and blood work out of the way! There is a lot involved just to get started.
Melissa- why do they say the IUI's haven't worked? What is MFI? I hope you guys have success. I would feel like yoiu dh too....you can only take so much of trying one thing until you have to move on! I am so nervous about IVF working, but I know it has worked for so many people. It's an expensive price to pay if you don't get a baby out of it! If you do, it's all worth it though! Do they know what caused your M/c?

Hi, I completly understand your situation. I had 2 Ectopic pregnancies 1 in each tube during 1998 & 1999. I still have partial of each tube & they could be repaired. However, my Dr. did not recommed that I do that & because the possibility of it happening again is high. So based on my history, he said I was a VERY good canidate for IVF. I did my research on the positives & negatives of it & it's worth it if you are willing to put the time in. I can honestly tell you that it can be overwhelming, stressful at times. But you have to be strong & have faith.
My 1st IVF cycle was done 12/16/10 w/ 2 Embryo's. Both took & I became pregnant w/ my son & daughter .
My husband & I just started a new round of IVF today. This time I will be using my frozen embryos that were left from the first cycle since they were able to retrieve 11 eggs & 9 fertilized.
One of the most important things is to reduce your stress as much as possible & if you have ANYTHING or ANONE that brings out stress in you. They need to be avoided or eliminated while you go through this. If you have any questions or just need support through your journey. Feel free, I am here.
Thanks girls! We are starting our IVF process. I am having bloodwork and other things over the next few weeks and hoping to start meds at end of June. That means I could be pregnant by the end of July!!! We are excited!
Malikah- I'm so sorry you went through it too, but WOW twins!! That's exciting! I hope you are as successful this round!!!
Neverquittrying- So sorry that you have to go through this too!! Life doen't seem fair!! But, at least we are "perfect candidates" for IVF!! How did your appt go??

My appointment went well. I started my Lupron shots again last week & we are scheduled to do our transfer on June 14th. The 1 thing that I did not include in my initial post is that I did go into pre-term labor just before I reached the 6 month mark w/ my twins. As a result, my son & daughter were born on May 7, 2011 & they did not survive pass that day. The doctors were not able to do anything. We buried them on May 9,2011. It has been 1 year as of last monday. That was the 1st time we returned to there gravesite. It was hard. But I'm feeling better than I did when it all first happend. It's a daily process & ultimatley, I'm a true believer in things happen for a reason. We have not given up & that is why we decided to do a new cycle. But this time, we are only transfering 1 embryo since we know that I can easly get pregnant. It's just the tubes that are the issue. However, I know that I did everything possible that I could do health wise when I was pregnant. But my job was very stressful during that time period. That is why I said if you can eliminate the stress, Do So. That is what I am doing this time & the doctor has already decided that Godwilling when I get pregnant this time, he is releasing me straight to the high risk doctor. So, i'm taking every precaution. Wish me well & godwilling all goes well for you.

Derby recreation center closedApril 02,2013DERBY An indoor community recreation center in northern Vermont has closed due to financial problems.
Community National Bank has taken over Indoor Recreation of Orleans known as IROC in Derby on Sunday after the facility failed to pay its mortgage for months.
The chairman of the board and executive director said he hopes that the facility can be purchased and continue serving the entire community.
The center has a pool, skating rink, gym and offered fitness and recreation programs, as well as basketball, volleyball and soccer leagues.
The Caledonia Record reported that IROCs board of directors could not raise enough money to secure a low-interest loan to pay off about $1 million in debt. The facility also needed $150,000 in maintenance.MORE IN Vermont NewsCOLCHESTER Youthful masterpieces of Mozart and Mendelssohn, played brilliantly, opened the...

LONDON — Marks & Spencer PLC is on a roll, and apparel is supplying the momentum.
This story first appeared in the November 6, 2002 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
First-half net income at the U.K. retailer rose 37 percent to $300 million, or 13 cents per diluted share, on sales of $5.54 billion, a 7.9 increase over the corresponding period last year.
The company, which underwent a dramatic restructuring that ended last year, also registered its fourth consecutive quarter of growth.
U.K. retail was the driving force behind sales growth in the 26 weeks ending Sept. 28. Overall, retail sales grew 9.5 percent to $4.8 billion. Dollar figures have been converted from the pound at current exchange rates.
Apparel, which generates the lion's share of sales, grew 14.4 percent, followed by the home collection, which grew 10 percent, and food, which rose by 5 percent. The company said the growth in clothing was due to higher average selling prices, reflecting the mix of products sold.
"In clothing, we have continued to improve the appeal, quality and fit of our merchandise as well as segmenting our ranges more clearly," said chief executive Roger Holmes. "The focus on key product areas, together with recently developed categories including Per Una and Blue Harbor, has been well received by our customers."
Marks & Spencer now boasts 10.9 percent share of the U.K. clothing market. Chairman Luc Vandevelde said the store would continue to focus on gaining market share in core areas, although he reiterated that Marks & Spencer expects the market to be "less buoyant" in the coming months.
Operating profit for the U.K. retail business rose 60.1 percent to $354 million and overall rose 41.1 percent to $460 million. The company said the sharp rise in operating profit was due to a variety of factors including changes in its supply chain and a more profitable lingerie business.
The company said it refurbished 63 stores during the period at a cost of approximately $48 million. It plans to restore 41 more stores before Christmas. That means 89 percent of U.K. retail selling space will be refurbished by the end of the year.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Teen Relationship Abuse
Topic Overview
Teen dating violence is just as serious as adult domestic violence. And it's common. About 2 in 10 teen girls say they have been physically or sexually abused by a dating partner. About 1 in 10 teen boys reports abuse in dating relationships.
Teen dating abuse is a pattern of abusive behavior used to control another person. It can be:
- Any kind of physical violence or threat of physical violence to get control.
- Emotional or mental abuse, such as playing mind games, making you feel crazy, constantly texting you, or constantly putting you down or criticizing you.
- Sexual abuse, including making you do anything you don't want to do, refusing to have safer sex, or making you feel bad about yourself sexually.
Who's at risk?
Like adult domestic violence, teen relationship abuse affects all types of teens, regardless of how much money your parents make, what your grades are, how you look or dress, your religion, or your race. Teen relationship abuse occurs in straight, gay, and lesbian relationships.
Relationship abuse is not just dangerous for you physically and emotionally. It can also put you at risk for other health problems, such as:
- Eating disorders.
- Depression.
- Low self-esteem.
Teens in abusive relationships are also more likely to take sexual risks, do poorly in school, and use drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. Girls are at higher risk for pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Is it abuse?
Abusive relationships can have good times and bad times. Part of what makes dating violence so confusing is that there is loved mixed with the abuse. This can make it hard to tell if you are really being abused. But you deserve to be treated in a loving, respectful way by your boyfriend or girlfriend.
Does your boyfriend or girlfriend:
- Act bossy and make all the decisions?
- Put you down in front of friends?
- Threaten to hurt or kill himself or herself?
- Blame you for "making" him or her treat you badly?
- Pressure you to have or force you to have unprotected sex?
- Stalk you? This can include constantly texting or calling you to find out where you are and who you're with. You might think that's about caring, but it's really about controlling the relationship.

Same issue here. I am not able to add users from the roll down list to the project.
Is it possible to add users later to the already created project?
Is there an eta on a fix for this?
With large teams this makes it unusable :-(
Both the adding after the project is created AND the drop down issue.
See there is a pencil icon next to the project title, click that pencil icon and you'll be able edit that project, add co-workers.
Installed this plugin today at my computer club. When will there be a fix for the dropdown list of members not showing?
You can type the name of the user and it'll be filtered and eventually will be shown.
Its don't show user dropdown list, you will find user list when you will go for search. Type any name then you will find user related that name then select. In pro version of this plugin you will find extra facility to add any member if you not find in search instantly . And also lots of features is available in Pro version of this plugin.
You can check pro version here
When Woocommerce is activated, I can not add co-workers to the project. Is there a way to fix this??
Please see screenshots:
http://postimg.org/image/dxtizip73/ (woocommerce activated)
http://postimg.org/image/eytron66n/ (woocommerce not activated)
woocommerce and project manager, both are using chosen library and seems like a css conflict is happening.
Hi All.
Downloaded this plug, but I can't add another user.
Seems you are to type the user name, where?
I would consider purchasing the full version as I need a good alternative to BC but I want to test it out first. But this lack of adding user's makes this plug worthless.
Can anyone help me out here How do you add a user / team member?
I have my other user set as admin in wp.
My bad! You must add the team members as the project is created, sorry!!
You can also add project members after creating a project. Just click the pencil icon after project title.
without creating a user how can you assign them the project or tasks..
for that you have to first add the user by selecting the user option from left sidebar of your dashboard and then add or create a user of having desired permission to them...

Now Playing Onstage in Las Vegas - Week of 7/27/2014
Click Here to View BroadwayWorld.com Las Vegas Calendar
The rare instance of a musical thriller, Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler's chilling, suspenseful, heart-pounding masterpiece of murderous barber-ism and culinary crime tells the infamous tale of the unjustly exiled barber who returns to 19th century London seeking revenge against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. His thirst for blood soon expands to include his unfortunate customers, and the resourceful proprietress of the pie shop downstairs soon has the people of London lining up in droves with her mysterious new meat pie recipe!Sophisticated, macabre, visceral and uncompromising, SWEENEY TODD nevertheless has a great sense of fun, mixing intense drama with howlingly funny moments of dark humor: audiences find themselves laughing hysterically one moment and gasping in surprise the next.At the show's core is a challenging score of epic proportion with two tasty tour de force roles in Sweeney and his comic female accomplice Mrs. Lovett. Although it has been extremely popular with opera companies and in concert presentation, SWEENEY TODD is equally effective as an intimate chamber musical.

AVENUE Q is a gut-bustingly hilarious modern musical focusing on a group of unique 20-somethings making their way in the big city, seeking their purpose in life. Although the show addresses humorous adult issues, it is similar to a beloved children's show; a place where puppets are friends, Monsters are good and life lessons are learned.Winner of the Tony "Triple Crown" for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, AVENUE Q is part flesh, part felt, and packed with heart. AVENUE Q is a laugh-out-loud musical that tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that although the residents seem nice, it's clear that this is not your ordinary neighborhood. Together, Princeton and his new-found friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.Puppet RentalBe sure to visit MTI's Prop Shop to see our AVENUE Q puppets to rent!AVENUE Q NEW YORKVisit the official "Avenue Q New York" for NYC ticketing and more information.

CHI House Tour: Dominic's Vintage Gold Coast Gem

The apartment's style is simple, urban, masculine and just a touch traditional. It's an elegant look, but Dominic managed to pull off the decor on an admirable budget. He says, I bought the apartment last year, then painted it and furnished it...I purchased every single item (including dishes and wine glasses) through either Craigslist, eBay or nearby thrift stores along with Ralph Lauren bathtowels and Calvin Klein bedding from Filene's.
I did the whole apartment for under $3,000, which was the original price of the living room's custom made sectional sofa with Mohair upholstery--I paid $650 for it.
My style: Modern Traditional
The Inspiration: Ralph Lauren's modern room settings, Thomas O'Brien at Aero Studios
Favorite Element: Wood
Biggest Challenge: Carpeting
What Friends Say: They like the sectional and the neutral color scheme
Biggest Embarrassment: The bathroom vanity—I haven't gotten around to replacing it
Proudest DIY: Painting the coffee table
Biggest Indulgence: The sectional sofa which was custom made and covered in Mohair; it also opens into a full size bed.
Best advice: First figure out the color palette, then select the "big" anchor pieces for each room; sofa, bed, etc., and design around those pieces.
Dream source: Ralph Lauren
The White Elephant and Salvation Army thrift stores
Various antique malls on North Broadway
Filene's and TJ Maxx for Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren bedding and bath towels.
Thanks Dominic!

Dream Song 29
by John Berryman
Dream Song 29 Introduction
In A Nutshell
What makes you feel better when you're really down in the dumps? Ice cream? Sure, that always helps. But let's look beyond the dairy products for a second. How about finding someone that's even worse off than you are? Come on, admit it. We're not saying it makes you a good person; we're just saying it helps. In fact, that plus a scoop of Rocky Road and you just might find you're whistling a happy tune again.
If you happen to be feeling a little down right now, grab yourself a cone and pick up John Berryman's "Dream Song 29." Suddenly your problems won't seem so big. In just three short stanzas, Berryman describes the crushing sadness and guilt that plague Berryman's alter-ego, a character named Henry. After a couple licks and a stanza or two, you'll be smiling and saying to yourself, "Well, at least I'm not Henry!"
"Dream Song 29" is one of Berryman's most anthologized poems. It was part of his 1964 Pulitzer Prize winning book, 77 Dream Songs, and contains lots of the elements that the Songs are famous for: sadness, guilt, and a guy named Henry.
Even after the book was published, Berryman kept writing more songs and eventually ended up with close to 400. The songs function individually, and some were published on their own, but Berryman intended them to be part of one long sequence. Ultimately, they were all published together as The Dream Songs in 1969.
If you read a few of these dream songs, you can get an idea of why Berryman kept using the title over and over. Most of them leave you with that weird sense of floating somewhere between reality and the surreal world of imagination—like the way dreams feel.
The Dream Songs also follow a pretty strict structure, so certain patterns start to feel familiar, kind of like the way a song always returns to a chorus. Berryman relies on a regular structure and how words sound together to give the poems a song-y feel. But remember, they're dream songs. Don't expect them to sound like real songs. You certainly can't dance to them.
Berryman insisted the speaker of the songs was Henry and not himself stating, "Henry does resemble me, and I resemble Henry; but on the other hand I am not Henry." Whatever the case may be, there is no doubt Henry mirrors Berryman.
And that's not such a great thing for Berryman, biographically. He struggled throughout his life to cope with his father's suicide (which he witnessed as a boy) and suffered from alcoholism and depression. Henry seems to struggle with some of the same issues. John Berryman ended up taking his own life in 1972 at the age of 57. He is considered by many to be among the founding figures of confessional poetry.
Why Should I Care?
Love it or hate it, reality television is just about inescapable these days. And reality T.V. wouldn't be the same without the ubiquitous confessional. Whether it's Jersey Shore or Project Runway, there have to be those scenes of someone talking earnestly (or, perhaps, tearfully) into the camera, spilling it all for our guilty pleasure. Well, what would you say if Shmoop told you those juicy confessionals, and, maybe reality T.V. itself, may never have come into existence without poets like John Berryman and poems like "Dream Song 29"? You'd probably say Shmoop had spent too much time at the ice-cream bar and it's just the sugar talking. You're not wrong. But let us explain.
Berryman is part of a group known as the confessional poets. In the late 1950s and 1960s, poets like Berryman, Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, and Robert Lowell started writing poetry that focused on very personal feelings and anxieties, often dealing with life and relationships. You're probably thinking, "Duh, Shmoop. That's basically the definition of poetry." Well, it might be now, but before these folks started doing it, it wasn't. Poetry often dealt with personal feelings in more universal and general ways, distancing the poet from the observations and the feelings. And until the Confessionals came along, subjects like depression and psychological anxieties were not often discussed directly in American poetry.
In a sense, the confessional poets turned their pens on themselves, making themselves and their psyches the subject of their art, thus allowing future generations to turn the cameras on themselves in tiny rooms to talk about how much they hate their roommates. Thanks?

Vermont Law School teacher named new judgeStaff Report | November 20,2012MONTPELIER Vermont Law School adjunct professor Kevin Griffin, of Norwich, will serve as a Superior Court judge assigned to Chittenden County.
Gov. Peter Shumlin announced the appointment Monday.

The Australia international skippered his side to a dramatic two-wicket win over the Titans on Friday, setting up a final date with the Lions. That they had to secure the win on the last ball, though, shows they still have work to do, but Haddin knows if they can follow their orders, they have a chance.
Speaking after Pat Cummins struck the winning runs, Haddin said: "We made things very hard for ourselves. But in the end we won. We have a final to go to on Sunday and that is totally different pressure."
He added: "We got away with one, we can't hide behind that. But life goes on and we won the cricket game and now we are going to the final on Sunday.
"All that we have to do is execute our plans. Whatever our plans are we have to make sure we execute them and that's all we have got to do.
"I think the two best teams are in the finals, so that's a good endorsement for the tournament. Our guys are very excited up in the change room; so let's go to the finals now."
Tossing the coin with Haddin will be Alviro Petersen, whose Lions side had a more sedate 22-run last-four victory over Delhi.
Sydney are the only side to have beaten the Lions in this tournament, and Petersen would like to right that wrong.
"The only game we lost in this tournament has been to the Sixers so we would like to put one over them," he said.
"What I can assure you is the team will be up for it once more, the boys are hungry. We are playing good cricket. We know that the road that we are on doesn't end here. We are focused on preparing for what lies ahead, and that will be our real focus."

I have trouble to understand how CTP-onomies works with archive page.
I have a CPT "hotel" and another CPT "city".
In CPT-onomies city I have checked the "Attach to Post Types" hotel to get city at the right of admin post hotel. That works and that ok.
But for the Archive Page Slug for all hotel in a city I want "www.domain.com/hotel/city/new-york" for example. But in city cpt archive slug i have "www.domain.com/city/tax/new-york".
It is possible to that with this plugin?
Because the $post_type refer to city and not to hotel... In fact I will use city with another CPT later like house for example. I will need with same CPT city "www.domain.com/house/city/new-york" to show just the house in new york.

My service would just come and go as it pleased, even in places that normally had a lot of bars. Although this was of course very irritating I didn't think too much of it. I did however look online to see if anyone else was experiencing this same issue. I couldn't believe all of the complaints this seemingly good company was recieving. After reading dozens of distraught comments I now believe that the Straight Talk company is just one big scam. My phone eventually did return to normal, except for the occasional problems with my internet. A "network error" sign continued to pop up. Also, texts were'nt coming through when they should. They would be sent one day and not be recieved until the next. Very agrivating.
I had recenty enrolled into the autorefill plan. Don't do it! It worked rather well for the first 2 months but completely failed to do its thing this month. AHHH!! I was wondering why i was not recieving calls or texts for a few days so i logged into my Sraight Talk account online only to find that they DEACTIVATED my account!!! I am sooo mad. There is absolutley no reason for that to happen and now I have to figure out how to reactivate it and I might not be able to have the same number.This has been an awful experience and I'm honestly considering just getting a new phone and never looking back! Straight Talk is just an unbelievable rip-off and I feel sorry for whoever encounters it next.

General Discussion / Re: Bicycle tools for a cross country ride« on: July 29, 2015, 02:21:50 am »
On my first trip in 2000 I also carried waaay to many tools. I have reduced it down a bit now. Still, on my last trip I carried a chain tool, some chain links, a cassette removal tool etc. But in the future I will probably not anymore, because: I have now pedaled 1000s of miles and never ever used these tools. I have never broken a cable nor a chain or a spoke. Doing a cross country trip you will not need to adjust your brakes - if you ride during the summer. I believe if you use some Loctite 243 thread locker your screws and bolts will never unwind unless you did not clean the threads before application.
At one point you might want a new chain and maybe a new cassette, but you can just go to a bikeshop, buy the items and pay them 10-20 dollars for putting it on. of course you can be 100% self sufficient and carry a new cassette a new chain a new tire etc yourself ...
So basically it boils down to having a puncture repair kit :-)
One should also consider that you can walk up to a farm and ask if you can use their wrenches etc for a few minutes.

Skip to comments.Vanity: Civil War Research; Three simple questions
Posted on 08/02/2007 9:24:27 PM PDT by bicpen
If you could please answer a few quick questions for me, I would be most appreciative. Thanks so much!
If you were looking for information online about President Lincoln what URL would
If you were looking for information online about the Civil War what URL would you type?
If you couldn't find either of these websites by typing in your best guess as the web address, what search terms would you key into an online search engine?
I think you're looking for what Google offers and it's their specialty.
Okay, I'll be nice. Post your specific questions here please. If they are interesting/challenging enough, I'll ping the Military History ping list.
It would help if you shared what your looking for. You won't get flamed about things your unaware of. Freepers flame the ones you either know what their talking about, or Don't know what their talking about. The basic questions will have the best response.
Every Lincoln executive order, proclamation, etc.
These two:
LINCOLN site:www.gmu.edu/departments/economics/wew/
lincoln walter williams
I have found plenty of lists of the generals who were killed in the war, but do you know of a list of the brigade commanders who were still Colonels when they were killed? I know that there were three or four who were killed at Gettysburg, so it is probable that there were others over the course of the war.
I see quie a few results with DiLorenzo's name on it - I had the pleasure of knowing/meeting the man a few times at the Mises Institute. The last time we met, it was at a downtown bar in Auburn, AL, right after "The Real Lincoln" was published.
Sorry, don't know the answer but I am think somebody on the list might know.
Can somebody shed some light on Stonewall Jackson's question: "I have found plenty of lists of the generals who were killed in the war, but do you know of a list of the brigade commanders who were still Colonels when they were killed? I know that there were three or four who were killed at Gettysburg, so it is probable that there were others over the course of the war."
Thanks in advance.
Ask Jeeves, troll.
I posted that because he doesen't understand why the war between the states existed. It could be naivety.
Bump for later.

My mom has been doing a lot of geneology research recently and has found at least five of my ancestors who died in the Civil War. One was killed during a cavalry skirmish in Tennessee in 1863; another was mortally wounded during the Battle of Crampton's Gap at South Mountain, Maryland; two others died of illness in Richmond hospitals; and a fifth was captured at Cold Harbor and was sent to a Union POW camp in Elmira, New York, where he died of diptheria just a few months later (he is buried in the National Cemetery there at Elmira and I plan on driving up there next year during my trip to Gettysburg and Antietam).
you need to sevice your vanity thread mr first day here...it's considered good manners unless you tell folks upthread you are going to be out.
if you are trolling for stormfront style links to shame this forum for some fair and balanced clown then you are at the wrong address
if I'm wrong, I'm sorry
The brigade was commanded by the older Cobb brother (who was originally the 16th's regimental commander) and the Legion by the younger.
If you were looking for information online about the Civil War what URL would you type?

In order to truly learn anything, you need to read a variety of historical and biographical books, that means more than one book on a specific individual, battle, causes of the war, etc., to garner opposing viewpoints. It's also important to visit a number of historical socieities, archives, library manuscript departments, etc., to read the actual words of the men who served on both sides. It's amazing what you can learn from correspondence/documents written during the war. It's important to remember that leg work is still the only true way of thoroughly researching a topic you are interested in. If you rely solely on the internet for your information, you are missing a great amount of significant historic facts.
Ken Burns seems about your speed.
If you were looking for information online about the Civil War what URL would you type?
That's rather a broad topic. Is this for a research paper for school or just personal curiosity?
The English Civil War? Start here: http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/CivilWar.htm
Or were you looking for the War of Northern Aggression?
Appears we have a troll here, by the way.
My mother's family were small tradesmen in Augusta GA who immigrated from Scotland around the time the war began. Some of her maternal relatives fought in the war, but most were too old or too young. My father's family made up for it. Of my direct ancestors, Grandpa Long was in the 51st AL Cavalry (Partisan Rangers) under Col. Morgan, Grandpa Glover was a lieutenant in the 55th Alabama Infantry, and Grandpa Dent commanded Dent's Battery, Hindman's Div., Deas's Brigade. Also had a passel of cousins, uncles and assorted kinfolk in various Georgia and Alabama regiments.
It's interesting to look at the orders of battle -- because at the company level I'm related to or know most of the folks in my relatives' units. And it makes ya go hmmm sometimes -- for example this entry: John T. Stewart. Elected Captain on December 12, 1861. Not reelected, May 8, 1862. John Stewart married Grandpa Glover's oldest sister. He wasn't re-elected because he was killed at Shiloh.
For Lincoln ping Non-Sequitur. He has so much info at his finger tips.
Why would a newbie end up at FR instead of Google for research on such generalities?
They were from Walton County. Company F of the 16th Georgia was composed entirely of men from this county.
Lots of articles and links to other sources. You can find out quite a bit on the War of Southern Independence there as well
Bump request for any additional sources on the 16th President and War Between the States information
You'd think after 170 years some Republicans would have smartened up. Guess not...
"[Free trade is a system whereby] some have labored, and others have, without labor, enjoyed a large portion of the fruits.... To secure to each laborer the whole product of his labor, or as nearly as possible, is a most worthy object of any good government." "[International trade] is demonstrably a dead loss of labor... labor being the true standard of value." ~ Lincoln, Feb. 15, 1861
Spoken like a man that receives letters of commendation from Karl Marx....
Lincoln's economic errors pale when compared to the thoughts of the VP of the Confederacy:
"Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its corner- stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slaverysubordination to the superior raceis his natural and normal condition. This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth."
I think most people will agree that a civilization based on tariffs, no matter how economically inefficient, is preferable to a civilization founded on slavery.
"Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery - the greatest material interest of the world." - Mississippi's Declaration of Secession
Lincoln was in Cleveland on February 15, 1861. And the speech he gave there bears no resemblance to what you've just quoted, billbears. Link.
Reduced to making up quotes now?
Let's look at that quote in context, billbears. Something you absolutely hated doing, I know, but is often necessary after one of your attacks.
"The legitimate object of government, is to do for a community of people, whatever they need to have done, but can not do, at all, or can not, so well do, for themselves---in their separate, and individual capacities.
In all that the people can individually do as well for themselves, government ought not to interfere.
The desirable things which the individuals of a people can not do, or can not well do, for themselves, fall into two classes: those which have relation to wrongs, and those which have not. Each of these branch off into an infinite variety of subdivisions.
The first---that in relation to wrongs---embraces all crimes, misdemeanors, and non-performance of contracts. The other embraces all which, in its nature, and without wrong, requires combined action, as public roads and highways, public schools, charities, pauperism, orphanage, estates of the deceased, and the machinery of government itself.
From this it appears that if all men were just, there still would be some, though not so much, need of government." -- Abraham Lincoln July 1854(?)
Now what, exactly, is wrong with that?
Only exception to that is Rober Graves. I read, and loved, "I Claudius" and "Claudius The God" year s ago. It's historical fiction, but very, very good historical fiction.
Dang Stonewall Jackson,
I had a ggg-uncle who died of typhus at the Union POW camp in Elmira, New York too. By coincidence he had the same first, middle and last name as me. He was captured at the Battle of Helena. Basically, we lost every male member of the family over the age of 13. I think it was 14 or 15 all told. They were with the 11th, 12th, 13th, 17th and 18th Arkansas Infantry Regiments and one CS Marine Corp., aboard CSS Atlanta.
The Genealogy stuff is interesting, a tremendous amount of records on line, but really tedious to search through. The word is patience and perseverance.
One of the best Civil War site on the internet is at http://www.CivilWeek.com. It contains a day by day account put together with newspaper clippings, letters, official dispatches, and orders. Very well done.

The D700, An Affordable Full-Frame
Good Afternoon:
Some time ago in the D200 or the D300 forum, I posted a question as wheteher Nikon would ever release a full-frame DSLR that would bridge the gap between the D3 and the D300 and would compete with the Canon EOS 5D. Yesterday, I saw and purchased the latest copy of Popular Photography and its here, the D700. I should have checked here first..... Oh well.....
I'm going to have it go through at least two production cycles and then I'm purchasing one. This will be it! My last camera. The price isn't cheep but something that I can do be trading the D200 body. (I can still remember paying $800.00 for my F3 body and something like $1,600.00 for my F4E.) It begs the question of what I can do if I can do anything with the film cameras. That F3 was my first professional grade SLR and has about 40,000 slides to its credit. But I ahven't run a photo through for at least two years now.
The long term goal is an SB-800 flash, then a 24mm/70mm f2.8 zoom, then the D700. After that it's a question of which manual focus lenses I keep.
