You've got to be kidding, these are truly awful images. I was hoping the reduced pixel count of this model would put the FZ range back on track. How wrong I was. Even at 100iso the images are often washed out, noisy and unsharp.
I've often read fanboy type review comments in the past such as "my phone takes better pictures" but that description could very aptly apply here I feel.
There's got to be better ways of spending £400, even if it's bunging the lot on a horse!
Horrible, truly horrible
Ive got to agree it seems a little to expensive for the quality, any of the cheap DSLR's will be better. They are a little soft even for me and I tend to soften all my images.
I would imagine it'll sell for less than the suggested £400 retail, but seriously, you would expect better images from a sub £100 camera. It's all very well welding on a long zoom, but if that makes the IQ poor in the process, why bother? A couple of generations ago in the FZ series the image was petty good so how Panasonic can muck it up so badly is a bit of mystery to me. Maybe down to simple economics of a decent sensor, or perhaps an emphasis on tuning the HD video side of things has made Panasonic forget that stills quality is something quite handy to have in a camera.
I know this is going to make me sound a grumpy old git, but this review is why these kinds of cameras exist. Watch all the reviews come in (just the prediction of an old cynic), dishing out superlatives to what is at best, a very mediocre camera. Johnny Punter, our poor unsuspecting consumer takes it all in and shells out yet moe dosh on the latest must have gadget. This is why Panasonic have removed Raw support, as the last time our friend Mr Punter encountered that, was when he forgot to change his microwave from defrost to full power!
I think anybody who buys this camera should be arrested because obviously they are a pedo. I mean, come on guys, the camera companies are not charitable altruistic organisations. They are in existence to make money and they have to produce what they think will sell.
I don't this camera wil sell well, maybe to the aforementioned pedos and terrorists (who only exist in the minds of paranoid state security).
So that's 50,000 sold in the first case and perhaps 3 in the latter.
Poor show Panasonic!
Comon there are all sorts of +30x zoom bridge cameras out their for the Peter Philes of the world, so even in this regard this Panasonic is substandard. Most of them are cheaper and offer far superior image quality to the craptastic venus 1/2.3 sensor that has infected most of Panasonic upscale cameras. Heck they are even dragging their heels on their ancient M43 sensor these days and it compares hardly any better to its own aps-c competition.
This camera seems to do well at base ISO and one of the shots taken at 600mills looks sharp & vibrant. But like Sony's HX100V and most bridge cameras the 400+ ISO falls off far too rapidly. It looks to me that bridge camera can't even compete with many compacts in lower light. I'd still recommend buying an SLR camera that's a couple of years older, you can get telephoto kits for the same price as most of these bridge cameras.
didnt think much to this modle images were not nearly as sharp as i had hoped very over priced for the quality
While I think some of the readers' comments are a little hard on this camera, I don't see why panasonic bothered to come out with this new model. All it has going for it is a drop to a more manageable, but still marketeable 12mp resolution, and even that shows no real improvements over its predessor. While it isn't a BAD camera, it lacks the image quality of the Sony HX100, the extreme zoom range of the Nikon P500 and Canon SX30, or the "bang for the Buck" of the Kodak Z990
It's very disappointing to see that Panasonic's marketing department have forced the programmers to remove raw support from this model - with other FZ models, working with raw files is the only way to eliminate the yellow and purple Pannyblobs which occur in shots taken under tungsten lighting. Still, at least the image quality is better than the FZ100…
I was about to buy panasonic fz47 this dec..but because of the review and poor image quality I am really confused now…right now having digital compact sony cybershot..and wana join superzoom series..my considerations were panasonic fz47,sony hx100,canon sx30 is..any good recommendation??
I want to use it for nature and wild life too..
Do yourself a favour and buy a travel zoom compact. Much better than this Panasonic effort. I have a Canon SX220HS. Its great. We all have feet. So move a bit closer if you run out of zoom and compose your shot properly.
Having been involved with digital photography for almost three years, starting with a Nikon P80 bridge camera, and adding a Canon SX30is superzoom, a Canon SX130is travel zoom, and an olympus EPL1 micro 4/3, I can say the following to vipul. While my SX30 feels substantial and its handling mimics a DSLR in many ways, there is too much purple fringing and the pictures are too soft at even close to full zoom. Were I to start out all over again, my first choice would be the Sony HX100, followed by the Nikon P500. Were I on a tight budget, I would get the KodakZ990. As for Andy's comment, I do agree that today's better travel zooms give far better IQ than superzooms. My Canon SX130 takes far sharper pictures than the SX30. However, sometimes you just can't get close enough and you want/need that extra zoom. (my favorite subjects are ships at sea). My advice to both vipul and andy is to get BOTH a superzoom and travel zoom and carry them both. Use the travel zoom when you don't need the extreme magnification, and the Superzoom when you need it or can't see the viewfinder. It's still far lighter and cheaper than a DSLR and a bag full of lenses
Thanks warren I really apreciate that…
I just found another review of this cam at http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Panasonic-Lumix-FZ47-Digital-Camera-Review/Canon-PowerShot-SX30-IS-Comparison.htm
I have owned a Panasonic FZ18 for a few years before passing it on to my brother. Lovely camera, but suffers from a lot of processing noise especially on faces. Can easily be sorted by shooting in raw. I was going to upgrade to the FZ100 last year. But my opinion of the stills side of the camera was that the noise reduction problems were worse. I got into photography by picking up a 2nd hand Olympus Trip 35 from a science fair. I own a Pentax KX and regularly take this around with me on days out with my trusty Pentax A 50mm F1.7 lens attached. To me depth of field is everything.
I bought the Canon SX220HS for a holiday abroad to Spain and was very impressed with picture quality of stills and video, especially in low light. Waiting for the update of the S95.
Why are you guys so negative and hateful???? Are you trying to pose as experts by writing bad things? Lighten up please. and be a little bit honest and quit piling on. If you have the courage and fortitude to red an honest review by real EXPERTS go to
and read the entire review. Don't be fooled and go along with the crowd. This is not the only very good review out there. There are plenty others that are glowing about this camera. There will still be haters that can't stand the facts but that is their problem. They will spend there pathetic lives being HATERS, instead of being thoughtful and objective. But that is our world today I am afraid.
I just purchased the FZ47/FZ48 and find that the photos are nothing like the samples here. They are much clearer and crisper. If I would have read this review before buying the camera, I probably would not have purchased it. I do agree that when it first came out it was a bit too expensive but I got mine for under $200 and am very happy with it.
It seems to me that the sensor of the FZ-48 is also low(weak) as on serial Fuji S. There is many artefacts and noise already in 100ISO by dark time(weather), but the images are a little clearer(more net) and better in back lights than on Fuji, because the objective is better. But that justifies such a price difference? It is a personal conclusion, because I had the opportunity to compare FZ-48 and Fuji S-3400. On Panasonic there are more manual regulations, but Fuji has more natural colors.
The fz47 is a fantastic camera. Many pro reviews say it has the best color reproduction of any camera ever tested, even besting the best DSLR's. The problem with the camera is it is beyond difficult to figure out its mind boggling array of manual and combinations of settings.
There are just so many, and the manual does not due the camera justice,well (a small part of the manual that comes with it at least). But make no mistake, this camera takes outstanding photos once figured out.
(If figured out is the key word however) and i know more than a few experienced photographers who still shake there head in amazement at what this camera produces, when they found out what it cost they were floored.
The sample pics are nothing like the real life pics, maybe the sample pics would be similar if used at default settings but who uses those. This camera even takes stellar photos at full zoom. Awesome
Well it seems this site only allows reviews that share their what they think.
The fz 47/48 is a great camera, and until you figure out all its amazing features then your not giving it a chance.
In default form it takes very good pics but get to utilize more of it's mind boggling array of specific modes and it's a stellar performer.
I have many friends who are experienced photographers and they can't believe the quality, especially for the $$$.
As mentioned above by Terry,this camera has the most accurate color reproduction of any camera tested to date including top DSLR's( hey not my words, the words of the editorial staff of Digital Camera info.com
I just returned from a trip to SE Asia. I took over 2500 pictures with this camera in a lot of different lighting conditions over a month long trip. The images are EXCELLENT! The only ones that were challenging were inside very dimly lit temples (no flash allowed) but what camera does well in those conditions? Only very expensive DSLR's and then only middling results. This camera is so fast. I got shots that would have been lost or blurry before. Crisp shots with vibrant colors. This is a really good camera for the price.
Hi to all.
I'm certainly not a pro, but I was bored of compact camera quality, and was looking for a half-way decent camera for a reasonable price (300-400€). After deciding that a super-zoom bridge was the best option for me, the FZ47/48 was one of my top choices, but the comments here on PB really put me off! In the end, I trusted this and other reviews that gave it good marks, and I'm glad I did! I got it new for 290€, and I'm dead impressed with the results. I've had photography geeks try it out, and they too think that it's great (obviously not as good as theirs, but it's a fraction of what they spent!).
Don't get put off like me at first by the comments here. I agree with the PB review, which would probably be even higher if the "value for money" was based on the price I got it for! Browse around for an offer.
Of course, this is based on my not-professional opinion, but if your looking for a ~300€ camera, I think it can be more helpful to you than some of the other critics at the top!
Oh! And compared to the older model (FZ40/45) I think the 1080 video and better quality is worth the 20€ difference in price. You lose RAW format, but let's be honest, if RAW editing is that important to you, this is probably the wrong kind of camera anyway!
I do not normally comment but I have to inform anyone wanting to know whether to buy this camera. The answer is a resounding YES! I have had DSLRs, other super zoom cameras etc, and this camera blows them away with the image quality. I was reluctent to buy at first because of the lack of Raw processing, but I do not need it as the jpegs are the best I have seen sooc. It is fast, reliable and THE best camera I have ever had. Just on thing. Adjust sharpness in camera by +1 as it is a little soft. Buy!!
I like this camera a lot. I originally was set on the FZ150, but when the price for this camera dropped below $200 late last year, I went for it. Its image quality is about the same as that of an FZ28 which I owned three years ago. It has more zoom and is faster focusing than the FZ28 was. I had the SX30IS. It has more zoom, but I think the FZ47 is easier to use and more versatile. I hardly use the RAW capabilities of the FZ28 and don't miss them on the FZ47.
Ignore the negative comments as this camera takes excellent images, granted at higher ISO the performance falls off but this is common with bridge cameras. I was tired of lugging around a 'kit' DSLR with it's associated lenses & already have a compact camera. The bridge camera was the answer. I tried many & the one that shone above all the others was both the fz48 (fz47 in the USA) & the fz150. There were features on the fz150 I didn't need & value for money the fz48 won. The DSLR & lenses are now being sold!
Can not believe all the bad comments on the fz48, clearly these people think they know more than the expert reviewer. Great camera, easy to use, good clear sharp photos.
hi, i bought the FZ47 after much reading of the reviews on the net, not just the site reviews but also the user reviews, like those posted here. although the FZ47 isnt perfect i think it's a great camera. it does everything i ask of it as a point and shoot. yes, it is over exposed in the iAuto mode but i overcame that by using the programme mode instead. there i adjusted all i thought needed to be adjusted to get the picture i wanted…it worked. the photos dont always turn out sharp but then thats what photo correction programmes are for. all in all, i have some great photos with nicely balanced colour and wouldnt hesitate in recommending the Panasonic FZ47 to anyone but with this advice, get to know your camera which is good advice with anything we use.
If anyone still has the camera, could you please connect the HDMI to a HDTV and see if there is a live clean (without OSD) 1080i or 1080p over HDMI ?

When trying to pinpoint the factor most responsible for their Wednesday victory over Kansas State, the Kansas Jayhawks have a lot to consider.
The rebounding edge, for example. Kansas State entered the game as the second-best rebounding team in the Big 12, and the Jayhawks absolutely dominated the glass - maintaining a 50-26 edge.
"In 27 years, including coaching 13 year olds, I've never been a part of a game where our team got its tail whipped in the physical part of the game the way we did today," said Wildcats coach Frank Martin afterward. "It was a complete mismatch."
There were several standout individual performances, too. Travis Releford had a career night, going for a game-high 16 points and 11 rebounds.
"Travis set the tone the first half," said Kansas head coach Bill Self. "He got on the floor twice. That was our whole big deal - 'First one on the floor.' That was our whole deal. He got on the floor a couple of times and I thought he did a great job defending Rodney (McGruder) in the first half especially and stealing us some extra possessions."
Thomas Robinson was his usual dominant self, recording yet another double-double - his 10th of the season - with 15 points and 14 rebounds, despite battling foul trouble. Jeff Withey was a major defensive presence in the lane, particularly in the second half, with eight points, nine rebounds and six blocked shots. And though Elijah Johnson scored just three points, he grabbed eight boards and dished out five assists without a single turnover.
And those factors were all big. They're important. But the hinge upon which the game swung was Conner Teahan. More specifically a pair of three-pointers the senior sharpshooter splashed in the second half, with Robinson on the bench and the Wildcats surging, to help Kansas maintain the lead.
With 12:27 left in the game, Kansas State forward Jamar Samuels hit a big three-pointer off an assist from guard Will Spradling to cut the lead to 36-39, capping a short 10-2 run by the Wildcats. After a timeout by Self, the Kansas State defense lost Teahan in the corner - a point of emphasis on Martin's scouting report - and the Kansas City native drilled it.
Back came Kansas State, as McGruder canned a two-point jumper off another assist from Spradling. But there was Teahan again, with 10:50 left, ripping the cords on another one after an assist by Johnson.
The lead was back to seven, and back came Robinson into the action. The Allen Fieldhouse crowd was rocking, and the Kansas offense exploded. Jeff Withey got loose for a dunk after another nifty assist from Johnson. Spradling hit a three to cut the lead back to six, 41-47, but the Jayhawks scored the next five baskets - a three from Releford, two dunks from Robinson, a fast-break slam for Taylor an a layup from Withey - to put the game to bed.
Those six points from Teahan were, almost questionably, the six most important points of the night, and helped a close game become a blowout victory over a ranked opponent in the Big 12 season opener.
"It's deflating," Martin said. "That's the problem with the first five, six, minutes of the game here. I think every team that comes in here deals with it. It's not just us. I watch tape, I see everybody is down 12-2 to start the game here. It's unbelievable. But now you take so much effort and energy to get yourself back to where you can manage the game, and then you make a mistake and they make you pay. That deflates your team."
Indeed, the Jayhawks raced out to a 23-5 lead in the first half, dominating the glass, scrapping for loose balls and utilizing crisp passing to find open shots. On the defensive end, they held Kansas State to just 27.6-percent from the floor for the half, and 31.6-percent for the game.
Afterward, Self was pleased with the victory but not willing to put too much stock into it - not with the gauntlet that is the 18-game Big 12 schedule only just underway.
Next up? A trip to Norman, Okla. on Saturday, for a showdown with the Sooners.
"They are a good team," Self said, of the Wildcats. "But this is one out of 18. This is nothing to get giddy over. It would be not a good thing if we didn't win in our own building, but road wins are precious and there's not going to be a lot of teams get a lot of them. All we did tonight was hold serve. We did what we had to do."

MARTINSBURG - Martinsburg City Council members on Thursday passed the first and second readings of an ordinance to renew the city's police levy and to hold a special election on the levy.
The vote was 5-1. Councilman Jason W. Baker voted no. Councilman Roger Lewis was absent.
"I am voting against the date of the election," Baker said after Thursday's council meeting. "I want it to be held during a primary election or a general election because of the voter turnout."

Jason Baker
The current police levy expires June 30, 2014. The special election would be held May 11 this year.
Proponents of holding a special election a year early have argued that the election has been held early in the past; it would get the issue before the public as soon as possible so voters can make a decision; and to give the city some leeway if the measure fails. Another election could be held before the current levy expires.
Baker has argued that more voters would turn out if it were held during the primary election, which is scheduled for May 13, 2014, or during the general election Nov. 4, 2014, even though that would be after the current levy expires. He said the city could enact the levy after the current levy expires.
Asked to confirm that he was not against the levy, Baker said, "I am not opposed to the levy being voted on by the people of Martinsburg."
"I support the police department in the capacity that the levy has helped," he continued. "I want the most people to vote on it, the largest percentage to get out to vote on it."
"I have no doubt the police department does a great job for the city of Martinsburg and the money from the levy does a great job the city of Martinsburg, but I want everybody to have a say, yea or nay," Baker said, adding that if the levy is defeated, he would not support making up the lost revenue with general funds.
Pressed further on his personal support or opposition regarding the levy renewal, he said, "I keep my personal vote to myself."
If 60 percent of voters cast ballots to renew the levy, it would not take effect until the current levy expires.
The city has allocated $60,000 for a special election in its current budget.
The levy rate would be the same as the existing rate: 5.25 cents per $100 of assessed value for Class I property; 10.5 cents per $100 of assessed value for Class II property; and 21 cents per $100 of assessed value for Class III property, according to information provided by the city.
For instance, if a home is assessed at $60,000, the police levy tax would be $63 per year. On businesses assessed at $60,000, the police levy would add $126 to its tax bill per year.
If renewed, the levy would raise about $1.1 million a year or about $5.4 million for its five-year span, according to the city's information.
The levy pays for nine Martinsburg Police Department officers and their equipment, uniforms, supplies, insurance, benefits and other expenses, as well as ongoing law enforcement programs, according to information from the city.
The nine police officers make up about 20 percent of the city's police force, according to material provided by the city.
Mayor George Karos called a special council meeting for 6:30 p.m. Feb. 28 for a public hearing on the ordinance to renew the levy and to hold a special election, and to have the third and final reading of the ordinance, after which council members would be expected to cast their final votes on the ordinance.

Hello race fans. The Port Royal Speedway is dark this evening while Williams Grove Speedway hosts its second day of World of Outlaws racing. Last week's Port Royal racing was special to me.
Tim Wilson won not one but two late model features at the Juniata County oval. Wilson had to earn both races and he did. A good time was had by all hs supporters afterward and will be a night that won't be forgotten anytime soon.
Keith Kauffman came close to winning his first sprint car feature of the season and will hit the winner's circle in the future. Rick Lafferty ended up winning that event and did a good job. The evening was good in my opinion.
Unfortunately for all those involved their momentum was lost because no racing will be held at Port Royal tonight. Still, it's something to build on.
Port Royal will be hosting the USAC sprint cars next month in a $6,000 to win, non-wing race that I'm sure is going to attract a huge crowd. I'm anxious to view that race because it has been a long time since I've watched a sprint car being backed into a corner at the track.
Last week Eric Zembower finished third at Bedford Speedway after leading the first 18 laps of the feature event. Jack Pencil was the winner. Pencil has Bedford figured out for sure.
As I mentioned, Williams Grove Speedway is hosting the big show this week end and it will be interesting to see if the PA Posse can once again beat the touring stars. It is amazing me that history is being repeated in the sense that the best outside drivers are once again trying to locate in Central Pennsylvania to race with our drivers because we race more and pay decent purse money. That was the norm in the 1970s and '80s. Somehow we got away from that and now it is coming back. It's nice to see.
The PA Sports Network with Jed Donahue is planning to expand it's coverage with auto racing in a major way starting next week. Tune in between 11 and 11:30 a.m next Saturday morning for details. Their coverage will be a weekly thing in season.
Last week Nick Dickson of Lewistown won the late model feature at Hagerstown (Md.) Speedway. Congratulations on that. Nick's father Ken and late uncle Rick were a fixture in local racing. The pair blazed the trail and had great success in the area. I remember Ken winning his last Port Royal feature event and stating he was turning the reins over to his son, who he said assured him he could get the job done and win races.
Nick Dickson proved his dad and uncle right. He has done the job while traveling through out the area. Back in the day. Rick Dickson helped put a car under Kenny and Nick and they both got the car to the winner's circle. While we were in the off season, Rick lost his battle with cancer and passed away. He is missed for sure and Kenny, Nick and the team have picked up the pieces and continued to win despite their loss. Rick Dickson is proud of them I'm sure. Between Kenny and Nick, they have won 55 races at the Juniata County oval and other area speedways as well. Rick Dickson was a key factor in that and is certainly missed. He won't be forgotten.
The World of Outlaws played to a full house at Lincoln Speedway Thursday night and the travelers got beat. Danny Dietrich put one on them to capture his first ever Outlaw win. They don't like to lose in Peensylvania. Lincoln hosted the Outlaws for the first time in 14 years.
Selinsgrove Speedway hosts the Jack Gunn Memorial for 358/360 sprint cars tonight. Gunn made the Snyder County oval a national name when he promoted the track. Gunn has been gone for over 30 years but his legacy lives on.
Gunn brought the best cars and stars to Central Pennsylvania to race with our regulars. His biggest find was luring Jan Opperman to the area. Opperman and Mitch Smith dusted USAC during their careers at Williams Grove and Selinsgrove. Gunn once promoted four tracks at the same time - both the Groves, Hagerstown and Penn National.
A couple weeks ago I mentioned traction control in sprint car racing. I spoke to one promoter who told me he was going to throw out the rule book and go back to the old days of "run what you brung." Another friend correctly pointed out to me that no one needs to run an "MSD" ignition box in a sprint car with a magneto and they are also correct. So what do we do? Think about it and you decide. I see both points.
The weekend weather should be good and if you can, get out to an area speedway to view your favorite drivers. Hopefully, next week we will have more to talk about as the weather hasn't cooperated of late. I plan to be here to bring you my views. I've missed a couple weeks because I've had some health issues since December. I'm getting back on track and thank my family and some dear friends for hanging in there with me.
Let's go racing. I 'll be back next week.

I also want to say thanks for the post! Super informative stuff, especially the 4 hour absorptive phase which I had not considered in my fasting times.
Right now I'm in the middle of a 40 hour fast- I had a late dinner last night and I will have lunch tomorrow afternoon.
I am considering making the 40 hour fast a weekly event, I have been doing weekly 24 hour fasts for about a month with occasional 16/8 fasts during the week. But having one giant weekly fast really appeals to me- Then I can enjoy more (clean) food on other days than I normally would.
The only downside to fasting? It always makes me REALLY cold (just have to wear extra sweaters, scarves and tights under my jeans, and hot tea is a must in the evenings), I have also occasionally had some lower GI symptoms or nausea after breaking a fast. I don't know if that would be influenced by how I choose to break it? I find it's best to just eat slowly at first, let your body adapt.
I find fasting really informative: I get hunger pangs around the times I usually eat but they pass quickly, which just shows how much the experience of hunger is to do with your body being conditioned to maintain homeostasis (in preparation for food) and less to do with actual energy deficits!
But in the end I really love cooking and eating, I'm looking forward to my big lunch tomorrow after class! For now I will just eat away my saddlebags! (Hopefully)

In this, the anniversary of Albert Einstein's miraculous year, The Royal Society is having a little fun.
The eminent society, of which Isaac Newton was once president, is asking who was the greater scientist, Newton or Einstein. It's the same as asking, I must say, who is the greatest scientist of all time.
You can vote on the issue here. Then, Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. CST, the Royal Society will hold a debate with two-person, scientist-historian teams arguing for each side. I believe the event will be webcast. You can find a concise summary of the achievements of both men here.
It's a great idea. I've read a fair amount about both men, but I think I have a softer spot in my heart for Newton. Why? Because I fell in love with science when I learned his laws of mechanics. That's when it all fell into place for me, a realization that mathematics really did explain much of the natural world.
And there's so much more to Newton's life. I mean, Newton was something of a kook. He did more than dabble in alchemy, much of his thought and experimentation was bent toward it, and he spent the latter part of his life in charge of the U.K. mint, making money for the monarchy.
So I pick Newton. Do you disagree?
UPDATE: Hey all, I tallied up the votes for Newton and Einstein, and it came to: Newton 14, Einstein 7, and several people who chided me for forcing them to choose. Feel free to keep the comments coming, and don't forget the Webcast tomorrow — perhaps that will sway some of you fence-sitters…

The Reality Of Me
The TROM documentary is trying to present, in a simplistic way, the world in which we, human beings, live. The world discovered so far, not some idea or personal choice. Moreover, we try to present alternative solutions to current problems and take into account the future, which promises to be more than interesting. An informative documentary, perhaps shocking and disturbing to many, depending on how you digest the information. The documentary is divided into chapters and sub-chapters due to documentary's excessive length (13 hours) and all the parts are connected so we recommend that you see them in order.

Yogurt place ll
Yogurt place ll
71 Sullivan Street (between Prince St & Spring St), New York, NY 10012
Why is this place so cute? I never knew yogurt could be so this good. Located in Soho this little Greek boutique is hidden way on 71 Sullivan street btw Prince and Spring. This little shop is full of all thing Greek, from cookies, baklava, spinach & cheese pies and of course homemade Greek yogurt. Originally form East Elmhurst Queens they have branched out to Manhattan severing locals and tourist alike. I got a cup of creamy rich 2% cows milk yogurt for $2.50 that was accompanied with apricot syrup and slivered almonds but one has choices with a verity of syrups and toppings. Also with my little afternoon snack I got couple of almond cookies for $.50 (each), apricot cookie $1 (each) and a spinach & cheese pie for $2.50. All perfect for making your rounds on a nice cool fall afternoon.
All is homemade goodies, not really full meals however the yogurt with granola would make a great breakfast that is full and healthy.

Liza Umarova
|Liza Umarova
Лиза Умарова
|Birth name
|Liza Umarova
|March 12, 1965
|Almaty, Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic, Soviet Union
|Music of Chechnya, Pop music, Torch song
|Singer, Actress
|Years active
Liza Sulimovna Umarova (Chechen: Iумарийн ЙоI Лиза) (born March 12, 1965 in Almaty, Kazakhstan) is a Chechen singer and actress. She is regarded by many[who?] as the most popular contemporary Chechen singer today, and her poignant music on Chechnya and the Chechen people has led many[who?] to call her the Chechen Edith Piaf.[1]
Early life[edit]
Liza spent her childhood in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Her parents had been removed from their native village of Katyr-Yurt, Chechnya in February 1944 as a result of the forced deportations of most Chechens to Central Asia. In 1982, her father decided to move the family back to Chechnya, and they settled in Grozny that year.
Liza attended the Yaroslavl Drama Institute, where she developed a solid reputation for her emotive singing, yet declined a musical career upon graduation to get married, and shortly afterwards became the mother of three children. In 1994 the family moved to Moscow after their house was bombed during the First Chechen War. In Moscow she opened up a small business called 'Vaynaham', which sold Chechen and Ingush literature and audio recordings. During this time, Liza separated from her husband and struggled to raise their children by herself.
In 1998 Liza made her first recording with the song "Motherland", which set words about Chechnya to the tune of "Liberta", a 1980s hit by Italian pop duo Al Bano and Romina Power. "I think it cost $50 [to make the recording]," she said. "I was sewing, earning money to feed the children at that time. I sewed sets of linen swaddling for newborn babies. And I had a lot of cloth, rolls of cotton. I sold all those rolls at the market, on the cheap, and made back the $50." [2]
"Motherland" became a hit on the Caucasian infringed records scene, although the singer herself often went uncredited. It was even picked as the anthem of the interregional peacemaking organization Echo of War, she said.[citation needed]
Liza then continued to make recordings of the First and Second Chechen Wars, with hit songs such as "Rise Up, Russia!", "Grozny, Hero City", and "Our Time Has Not Yet Come". In particular, the single "Grozny, Hero City" has been described as an anthem of Chechnya.[3] She notes that when a melody comes to her, she sings it into her mobile telephone because she cannot read music and does not own a tape recorder.
Nevertheless, Liza says she sings because, "Music has always affected me emotionally, has always calmed me and has given me hope. People came up to me after a concert, when I performed in Chechnya, in Grozny, and said that these songs heal. Although they are tragic, in the end there is always something positive - hope for a good life." [4]
2005 racially motivated assault[edit]
On September 6, 2005, Liza and her then-15-year-old son Murad were beaten in Moscow on their way to the metro by four drunken men, aged between 25 and 30. Umarova and her son sustained numerous contusions in the attack but initially decided against reporting the incident to the police.[5]
"You will not live in this country," one of the attackers told Umarova, she said in an interview with Gazeta.ru newspaper. She said the attacker gave her "the word of an officer." [6]
Umarova is not a Chechen nationalist and said she was ashamed for her country, Russia, over this kind of bigotry and over the continuing brutal war. Umarova has managed to appeal to both sides by staying clear of partisan views.[citation needed] When she sings the line, "You will be free, Chechnya," in "Motherland," she has in mind "free from war, from violence, from barbarism," rather than a call for independence, she said.[2]
In an article published on April 4, 2006, The Moscow News reported that three of the attackers had been given guilty verdicts by a Moscow court. The sentences ranged from a one-year suspended sentence to three years at a prison settlement.[7] After the defendants contested the decision, the case was sent for retrial, but the Moscow City Court upheld the previous verdict.[8]

These are just my thoughts – but I see a bully pulpit here, and I'll be brief. If you wanted to fleece a bunch of nerds, how would you do it? Well, first of all, you'd promise them, one way or another, "easy money." In fact, knowing that many of them spend hours each day in gam-environments where guns never run out of ammo, you'd promise them "make your own money." An altogether synthetic currency system. "World Money, Release 2.0." You'd slow-roll the whole thing. Just toss the ball out onto the field almost unmentioned. Aside from the obvious need for plausible denial when the sheet hits the fan, you're playing hard to get, in the form of a cryptographic-based puzzle that can only be brute-forced, but that can be shown to be solvable. Add a few more promises – that the supply of this "money" will always be limited (never mind how) – and wait for the Powerball Effect to take hold of its own accord. A very large number of paper cards are thrown away near my driveway, because I live on a country road about a quarter-mile from a convenience store. I pick them up by the hundreds. Meanwhile, start selling supplies .. for real money. And books, of course. Every now and then, grab a quiet instant-success headline, say by selling a Ferrari (a Ford will NOT do ...) for this "new money." Then wait. It's a Crowd Psychology 101 play, people, and I just want to say .. there are some things in this ol' world that are truly ancient, and finding new and creative ways to rip off your fellow-man by leveraging his own gullibility is one of them. I don't want my Chattanooga virtual friends to be among those many that will eventually be hurt. #undef soapbox .. Thank you. – Mike Robinson (615) 268-3829

[B]IcarianVX[/B]: You crack me up but you're very correct. I wasn't even paying attention to my terminology! D:
And you're right. My brain knows it's bad. My body knows it makes me feel bad. Why am I ignoring the signs?
It's just difficult when you don't have much food around and you're starving. But from now on I'll try to find more recipes and plan as much as I can so that food doesn't run too low.
That's a good idea! Sort of like salmon patties (though mom adds bread to hers.)
I'm iffy on butter atm. I like it but I wonder how it differs from regular dairy, something I'm trying to give up.
I guess what I do is more paleo than primal but I will look more into using butter on things.
It would be nice to use sense it's easy to get and everyone uses it. Geez that CW is a hard thing to get rid of!
Well...I'd do better speaking with my aunt or older cousin. My uncle is really not someone I wish to speak with if I don't have to. He tends to create a lot of problems and general familial animosity (he's not a blood-relation.) But it's not all his fault I suppose. He came into contact with some chemicals (I believe it's called Agent Orange?) while in the Vietnam War. Not to mention they aren't the best of farmers when it comes to cows. Just before it got really cold my dad cut the lawn and I spent a little while raking the clippings into the pasture so the cows could enjoy it (and they seemed appreciative.) I feel bad for them. They always poke their heads through the wire fence to get at the fresh grass in our yard. :(
BUT I understand what you mean. I've been over there lots of times and I'm aware of the work they put into taking care of animals (they've got 7 pets, 2 horses, numerous cows, 20-30 chickens and guinea fowl and perhaps a hog or two somewhere.) I totally get your meaning. I think more people should be in touch with where their Big Mac comes from. I'm not particularly squeamish which I guess I have my dad to thank (he used to fish and hunt deer.) However, I've not physically done the work myself so you're on the money in that respect too. I actually come from a farm family. My grandpa had a farm and my aunts, uncle and dad had to milk them growing up (they sold the milk to PET.)
Sorry to ramble!

The parts of a chicken most people tend to know are the ones that end up on their plates: "cuts of meat" from a depersonalized carcass that involve creepy descriptors like "boneless," "skinless" and "split breast."

The aquaculture industry is like a whale on steroids, growing faster than any other animal agriculture segment and now accounting for half the fish eaten in the U.S. As commercial fishing operations continue to strip the world's oceans of life, with one-third of fishing stocks collapsed and the rest headed there by mid-century, fish farming is increasingly seen as a way to meet the world's growing demand.

Sexing chickens involves a staggering level of cruelty, forcing the internal sex organs of newborn chick to protrude out so the sexer can sort females from males.

This short, non graphic video documents my visit to a live poultry market in Chicago. I posed as someone interested in having a business like theirs and asked if I could take some photos. They agreed. I then just let the video roll. What I found was even worse than I would have imagined. The only way to describe this place is a squalid hell on earth with a level of suffering I had never seen before. Shops like this are marketed as the "buy local," "sustainable," "free range," "pasture-raised" and "organic" alternatives to factory farming. Continue reading
Voltaire once wrote, "If we believe absurdities, we will commit atrocities," and nowhere is this principle seen more clearly than in the billion dollar lies and bizarre cruelties of the dairy industry. It is a testament to the power of dairy advertising that otherwise intelligent adults can be made to believe that it is not only natural, but necessary to drink the breast milk of another species. In trying to expose this absurdity, one encounters even more absurd defenses and practices. This video is a perfect example, demonstrating the heartless cruelties visited on animals in the dairy industry. Continue reading
No, this is not about the infamous fictional horror movie that has spooked many and given others feverish nightmares. This is far worse, far more premiditated, far more methodical and far more insidious than the movie. And worst of all, it's all really happening right now, particularly around this time of year to celebrate the Easter holiday. The latest Animal Equality undercover investigation exposes the transport and slaughter of young lambs in Italy, a typical scene depicting standard industry practices (most likely for "humane" labeled products) rather than some isolated and egregious act of cruelty. And it proves how the everyday, "normal" exploitation of animals is perhaps the most disturbing reality of all. Continue reading
Toronto Pig Save's vigils are held weekly near slaughterhouses in the area. At these vigils, TPS volunteers often hand out free vegan food and literature to passersby.

A new video clip has been released by Israeli group, Anonymous for Animal Rights, shot undercover at Israel's leading kosher meat processor, Tnuva Cattle in Beit Shean, Israel. The video footage was captured by an investigator acting as an employee at Truva between September and October of this year. The footage exposes egregious brutality and suffering of animals in this allegedly high welfare facility, described by one highly-respected Israeli veterinarian, Yevgeny Borschevsky, as "the animals' Treblinka."

This 4-minute video documents her amazing story, her will to live and her rescue. Continue reading

The Plastic Cow is a 34-minute documentary that looks at the impact of our almost complete dependence on plastic bags, which we use and discard carelessly every day, often to dispose our garbage and kitchen waste. Not only are these bags a huge environmental threat, they end-up in the stomachs of cows, who, either because they've been discarded because they're not milking at the time or because the dairy owner is unwilling to look after them, have to fend for themselves and forage for food, which, like other scavengers, they find in community garbage dumps.

Just released undercover video footage taken by HSUS at "Wyoming Premium Farms" revealing egregious cruelty and filthy conditions at a Wyoming pig breeding facility owned by a supplier for Tyson Foods. Among the atrocities exposed here, Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of HSUS, described on a press call how one pig was forced to give birth on a set date. "The worker intended to stick his arm in the animal's uterus to pull out the piglets, but instead went into her anus and caused the prolapse there. This animal lived another 11 days in this condition," he said. Continue reading

Flower Shoe Clips
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
These Flower Shoe clips are great for summer. With their bright colors and easy design, this project is great for using up leftover beads and adding a colorful floral embellishment to everything from shoes to your hair. Layer flowers like shown to create 3-dimensional embellishments that are great for anything. This is an easy project for kids and adults to make and you'll have so much fun playing with bright and colorful seed beads.
- 3 yds 28g craft wire
- 2 6mm soldered rings
- 1 pair shoe clip findings
- 2 colors 11/0 seed beads
- 2 8mm flat flower bead
- 2 4mm round firepolish
- Wirecutter
- Chain-nose Pliers
- Glue (E6000)
Anchor a piece of 28g wire to a soldered ring by winding it around a couple of times, leaving a 1" tail.
String 2 1/2" of seed beads onto the long wire, slide down to the base and wind wire around the ring next to the anchor wire. This will create a loop that is the first petal of your flower.
Continue the process until you have 8 petals around the ring.
Add 1 1/2" of a contrasting color seed beads and make a petal.
Repeat 4 more times until you have 5 petals.
Thread the long wire up through the center, string on a flat flower, add 4mm bead and thread back down through the flat flower, pull firmly and twist the two tail pieces to secure.
Glue on shoe clip finding with E6000. Be sure to wait a full 24 hours for the glue to cure before using. If your shoe clips have holes you can get additional security by weaving the wire in and out of the holes.

How are you doing? I'm doing a cut and paste tonight. I'm 9 pages behind in my blogs and I really do want to catch up. So, I'm sorry if you already know any of this.
I'm sorry that I haven't been around much this month. Mama had a biking accident just before Independence Day and had a concussion that lasted over a week. Plus she injured both hands which made it hard to type. She's doing fine now except for one hand which has residual injuries.
Unfortunately for me, she has made a resolution to get to bed earlier. So, no more late night blogging and that has really got me behind! Doesn't she care? Well, I guess she does but she says lack of sleep was really getting to her and her doctor agrees. Believe me, it's not easy going to bed knowing that I have so many friends I haven't blogged in awhile.
But, I will blog each and everyone. It will just take me longer. So, if you have anything exciting to report, I always want to hear about it! Even if it takes me several days to get back to you! Thanks for understanding!
It's super hot here now like it should be. Mama was out doing drywall and I helped keep an eye on things from a shady spot. I'm not too thrilled with the heat but it's okay if I sleep in the shade and don't exert myself. Exertion can be done in the evenings when it's cooler. We're lucky because it always cools down here at night. And if we run fast enough the mosquitoes can't catch us!
How is everything there? I hope you're staying cool. Here's a vote for you and thanks so much for voting for Tiny! She's almost at 17,000!
Come visit me, Adored 4, Ember, Melian (In Loving Memory), Tiny (Forever in my heart)
Here is a morning vote! Have a great day!

She was sitting on the couch eating supper and all of a sudden her screen went black with a bunch of words on it. Dad didn't know what any of it meant. She shut it down and it just wouldn't boot back up. She thought maybe it was a virus or something like that. Well she took it to the man that works on her computer Sunday evening. Than she went to Grandma's house to mow and the man called her and said I have some bad news, your hard drive is gone. When she got home from grandma's her and dad went on BestBuy and ordered one. They said it would be delivered anytime after the 9th. Well it came yesterday the 7th man that was quick. It came from Ohio. Momma couldn't believe how fast she got it. She took it to the man after work yesterday and he said it would be today before she would get it back, unless he finds something eles. Well they weren't home even an hour and the man calls. Momma thought oh know well it was his wife and she said it was ready. The only thing he couldn't piggy back her pic from the old to new bc that's how bad it was. It was pics of us that she make off the internet and our younger sister's highschool graduation. But thank God dad still has all the pics from graduation on his cell phone. She has to reinstall alot of stuff. She couldn't find her printer disk to reinstall it. So momma emailed canon and they emailed her a download so she can install it. Momma has got into a couponing thing she went to a class and she said she sure did learn alot about saving money with coupons. Boy has it been real hot here like in the 90's. We are so glad we get to stay in the house more now. Momma says when she comes out to get us it looks like we are ready and know we are going back into the ac. Momma is sure getting the overtime this week she has to work 8 hrs on friday which will give her 48 hrs plus she has to work 6 to 8 hrs on saturday. Her boss said it looks like it maybe like that for at least 4 to 5 wks. Hope yall have a great rest of the night, left a vote and its good to be back.

How are you doing? It was great to hear from you again and I'm glad you've been enjoying your walks with mama. Have you seen my latest movie? It's called Melian: Speeding Saluki. It's on YouTube and DC.
I just got back from a nice bike ride. We rode to the river and back and I splashed around a bit, got a tick, and chased some critters. It was fun but the water was cold!
It was only 8 miles so mama didn't bring the bike trailer. Last time she took it she loaded all of us in it at once! It was a bit crowded but it worked. Mama worked too! Together we 5 all weigh about 75lbs. Mama was huffing and puffing but I told her it was good for her. She couldn't answer. She was out of breath. hehe
We've had some cold weather here. Mama wasn't very happy because with several nights of frost her newly planted baby squash all died. She had been babying them for about a month and then this happens. I sure hope we are finally past this residual winter weather! How is it there?
Well, I hope you had a nice weekend. Here's a vote for you and thank you so much for always stopping by Tiny's page with a vote too.
Haven't heard from you in a long time, so I figured I'd come say hello and leave ya a blog and vote. How and where have you been? Please come bark at me soon :) How was your satrday? Mine was ok..I didn't go get my shot today bc right before we were on the way, we were in the car and mom guesses now that my foot fell asleep, so I was shaking it, but at the time I was shaking my leg and mom didn't think I was doing it voluntarily bc my whole body was shaking so she thought I was having a heat stroke, because its so hot, or seizure, so she freaked out and drove to the vet, and by the time we were in the parking lot, I was fine. Mommy's friends were with us, so we went to the dog park instead, just to make sure I was ok, for some play time, and to show them my swimming skills. As soon as I ran to the water, I got in a swam a circle! Thats my 3rd time and mom was proud as always, and mommy and mommyamanda (mom's best friend) clapped and cheered "yay kyler", I was so proud of myself :) and glad I had gotton out of having to get that shot! Also I am in the Puppy photo contest on DC's Doggie Contest Page:

Hi furiends! How are you? We've missed barking while we were offline. Mom was havin trouble getting her notepad to connect to the online & finally gave up. 2 weeks later it decided (it has a mind of it's own BOL) to work. We hope this last month of May has brought you good times & many laughs. We are so glad it's finally summer. Enjoy it while it's here! But everyone else's summers are longer than ours up here in Alaska so maybe the nice warm days are more precious to us. BOL. We have been great. Mom is definitely happier than she ever has been. There is so much to do here. The lake is awesome and soo beautiful. Mom can't wait to go swimming, or maybe she CAN as she hasn't jumped in yet. bol. She says it needs to warm up a bit more first. We haven't gone to the park for a while. Last time Peaka rolled in something stinky & was given a bath with the garden hose. Didn't like that as she's used to the indoor full spa with WARM water,BOL!! Mom set up barrels in one of the lawns & Peaka is loving jumping over them for agility practice. Yesterday mom took Peaka with her bicycling on a leash & Peaka did so well. She went right with mom's pace & didn't try to pull at all. This morning mom tried it with Yukon & he did well too. But then mom tried it again & when going by the neighbor's horse, Yukon suddenly lunged at it & pulled mom off her bike. You can imagine how UNhappy mom was then...& not very eager to go on any more bike rides with HIM for a while. Yukon did an even naughtier thing this morning too. Well mom's brother was paddling around out in the lake & Yukon was wailing because he wanted to be down by the water with him. So to show his dissatisfaction with the situation, you know what he did? Well we had a tent in the yard & he chewed a big whole in it & pulled the pillows out through the hole & shook them around. Mom's brother hurried to shore to give him a good scolding & put the tent away. It *was* a nice tent. bol. Peaka would never do a thing like that. Yukon is still just a big puppy. BOL. Yukon's Gotcha Day (3 yrs) was May 21st & he had a great day. Mom spent hours playing with him outside & groomed him to perfection. On Memorial Day it will be Peaka's 5 yr anniversary with the family & our kitty Mickey's (99842 on CC) 3rd birthday. woohoo! Thanks SO much to everyone who has been helping Peaka reach her goal of 4,000 votes. We've never tried to achieve any goals & it's wonderful to see all the support we're getting, especially when dogs come by with votes long after they've last heard from us. Your friendship means a lot! Our bunny, Topaz is very grateful for all the birthday wishes we passed on to him from our DC friends. He had a great birthday & lots of cute pics from his pawty can be seen on his page 106898 on SmallAnimalChannel.com. Thank you to everyone who voted Peaka in the Best Action Shots Contest (207236). We were so happy to find out that she won a tie in third place!
Here's a vote from Peaka 0(..)0 and Yukon ^. .^

code for friend class
what should be the code sketch for friendship of two classes.......:worried:
Re: code for friend class
We can declare function or class as friend.The friend function can access the private and protected members of that class.
we can also define a class as friend of another one, granting that first class access to the protected and private members of the second one.
Refer the following example.
// friend class
You may also see something new at the beginning of the program: an empty declaration of class CSquare. This is necessary because within the declaration of CRectangle we refer to CSquare (as a parameter in convert()). The definition of CSquare is included later, so if we did not include a previous empty declaration for CSquare this class would not be visible from within the definition of CRectangle.
Consider that friendships are not corresponded if we do not explicitly specify so. In our example, CRectangle is considered as a friend class by CSquare, but CRectangle does not consider CSquare to be a friend, so CRectangle can access the protected and private members of CSquare but not the reverse way. Of course, we could have declared also CSquare as friend of CRectangle if we wanted to.
Another property of friendships is that they are not transitive: The friend of a friend is not considered to be a friend unless explicitly specified.

He's one of the most famous playwrights, directors, and as he puts it, former "brain-dead liberals" of our time.
David Mamet is a Pulitzer Prize winner, who for 30 years has championed liberal values. But in recent years, he's had a change of heart.
As an acclaimed playwright, screenwriter, film director and essayist, Mamet is best known for the films, "The Untouchables," "The Verdict," and "Wag the Dog."
He's also a part of the elite group of Pulitzer Prize winners, receiving the award for his play, "Glengarry Glen Ross."
For most of his highly successful career, Mamet has been a voice for liberalism. Now, the leading writer continues to speak out -- but not for the left.
Mamet has described himself as a former liberal who woke up, a man who realized that the mainstream media outlets he depended upon were biased and pushed a hypocritical worldview filled with flaws.
In 2008, he wrote a controversial op-ed for The Village Voice entitled, "Why I am no longer a 'Brain-Dead Liberal.'"
In the article, he methodically tears apart liberal beliefs.
Now, in his new book, The Secret Knowledge: On the Dismantling of American Culture, Mamet goes a lot deeper into his change of heart, taking on the key political and cultural issues of our times -- from taxes to religion to political correctness.
David Mamet spoke about what changed his mind and why on "The 700 Club," Monday, July 25.

Best player: Righthander Alex White opened at Triple-A Columbus with a 1.90 ERA in four starts, then went 1-0, 3.60 in three big league starts before suffering a sprained right middle finger that has sidelined him since May 21.
As White rehabs, lefthander Drew Pomeranz is following in his footsteps as another fast-track draft pick. The fifth overall pick in 2010, Pomeranz, like White, began his career at high Class A Kinston. Pomeranz was off to a 2-2, 1.93 start through 12 outings in the Carolina League, with a potential promotion to Double-A looming.
Biggest Leap Forward: Infielder Cord Phelps wasn't a popular name on the lips of Tribe fans entering the season. Yet Phelps hit his way into the big league lineup just when the club needed an offensive spark. Originally a second baseman, Phelps has spent the last year and a half moving around the infield between second base, shortstop and third base, while mixing in appearances at Columbus as a DH. After batting .299/.391/.488 in 55 games for Columbus, Phelps was promoted to Cleveland in June. He was hitting .196/.315/.326 through 19 games, but he did chip in a three-run walkoff home run to help beat the Pirates on June 19.
Biggest Disappointment: The pure athleticism of outfielder LeVon Washington was too much for the Indians to pass up in last year's draft, despite warning signs about his maturity. Still, the Tribe rolled the dice and selected Washington out of Chipola (Fla.) CC with their second-round pick, handing him a $1.2 million bonus.
Considered raw with a below-average arm in the outfield, the one thing Washington was expected to do was hit. However, he has struggled at the plate at low Class A Lake County to start the season, batting .219/.330/.332 in 49 games.

Nina Ricci and Ladurée team up for new fragrance and macaron
Nina Ricci has teamed up with Ladurée to launch a delectable duo – a new fragrance and macaron flavour. We love a new perfume launch, but add pastel-coloured pastries to sweeten the deal and we're all ears.
In this never-before-seen collaboration between two luxurious French names, Nina Ricci has come out with an Olivier Cresp-formulated fragrance inspired by Ladurée's irresistible macarons, while the pastry maison presents a new taste bud tickler that reflects the subtle and intricate aromas of luxury perfume.
The end result is a fruity floral essence that combines Italian bergamot and grapefruit with Bourbon vanilla, white musk and sandalwood. The light-feeling scent is complemented by notes of raspberry, almond, lemon and Bulgarian rose, which are also found in the matching Ladurée macaron named La Tentation de Nina.
Watch out for the new scent and macaron in January 2014.

2008 Oriental Orthodox Fewstival - Printable Version

2008 Oriental Orthodox Fewstival - Severus - 14-09-2008
Plans for an Oriental Orthodox Festival in 2008 have rather been disrupted as it seemed appropriate that the Ethiopians should host it this year, because it coincided with their Millennium. Sadly, however, they have serious problems about accommodation as they are currently worshipping in borrowed churches, so lack the same flexibility they would enjoy if they had their own church premises.
However, the Council of Oriental Orthodox Churches is anxious that there should be a festival this year and Fr. Abraham Thomas of the Indian Orthodox community has offered to host it at their Church in Brockley, London, SE4. The date now agreed is Saturday, 22 November 2008.
It will follow a similar pattern to the last festival, with a celebration of the Divine Liturgy (beginning around 10.30 am), followed by lunch (with contributions of appropriate 'ethnic' dishes from each participating community), followed by a talk and general time for fellowship and getting to know one another.
A more detailed schedule will be available shortly.

FORT PAYNE, Alabama -- A Latino student who missed nearly a semester of school after the Fort Payne school district turned him away -- twice -- has been enrolled at Fort Payne High.
The Southern Poverty Law Center,
which was working on the 17-year-old's behalf, announced today that the
boy identified as J.T. began attending classes on April 10. The teen,
who recently moved to Alabama from Colorado, came to the United States
from Mexico at a year old.
"J.T. just wanted to go to school and now he gets to do exactly that," Caren Short, an SPLC staff attorney, said in a news release. "We are thrilled with the results and appreciate the district's prompt action."
The teen was denied enrollment in the school in January without legal justification, the SPLC news release said. The Montgomery-based non-profit civil rights organization stepped in, sending Fort Payne City Schools a letter detailing the denial. The school district immediately took action, enrolling J.T. in school the following day.
"It feels great because I know I will be able to become what I want to be in life," J.T. said in the news release. "I feel normal, too."
[Click here to learn more about J.T.'s case.]
To prevent discrimination based on a child's national origin, the Fort Payne district has revised its enrollment form to make it clear that no student will be denied enrollment for failing to provide a Social Security number, the SPLC reported. It also removed from its website a memo detailing a provision of the state's anti-immigrant law that requires students to provide a birth certificate to complete enrollment.
That provision was struck down by the courts.

Is Office the new Netscape?
,----[ Quote ]
| One of the cornerstones of Microsoft's competitive strategy over the years
| has been to redefine competitors' products as features of its own products.
| Whenever some upstart PC software company started to get traction with a new
| application - the Netscape browser is the most famous example - Microsoft
| would incorporate a version of the application into its Office suite or
| Windows operating system, eroding the market for the application as a
| standalone product and starving its rival of economic oxygen (ie, cash). It
| was an effective strategy as well as a controversial one.
| Now, though, the tables may be turning. Google is trying to pull a Microsoft
| on Microsoft by redefining core personal-productivity applications -
| calendars. word processing, spreadsheets, etc. - as features embedded in
| other products. There's a twist, though. Rather than just incorporating the
| applications as features in its own products, Google is offering them up to
| other companies, particularly big IT vendors, to incorporate as features in
| their products.
Google may be beating Microsoft at its own game
,----[ Quote ]
| To achieve this, however, Google would need a license like the AGPL to keep
| ISVs honest in how they work with Google. Unfortunately, Google hasn't
| exactly been a friend to the AGPL, but that could change when it realizes its
| self-interest is at stake.
Microsoft stock drops amid slumping sales
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft Corp., whose Windows software dominates the personal-computer
| market, fell 6.2 percent Fridayin Nasdaq trading after sales slumped, casting
| doubt on whether PC demand can hold up in a slowing economy. The software
| maker reported a 24 percent drop in sales of Windows last quarter and
| forecast earnings that may miss analysts' estimates. Â* Â*
| [...]
| "The risk is that Linux gets a foothold and then affects their long-term
| revenue significantly."
Microsoft earnings post-mortem: The cash cows quiver
,----[ Quote ]
| I canât help but wonder if the lackluster Windows/Office results also can be
| attributed to Microsoft brassâs complete and crazy obsession with Google (and
| taking over Yahoo) has resulted in no one minding the Windows store. Kevin
| Johnson, the head of Microsoftâs Platforms & Services division seems to be so
| laser-focused on the online-ad business these days that he almost seems to

| A prominent example of open source software is the Linux operating system...
| To the extent open source software gains increasing market acceptance, sales

| our products, and revenue and operating margins may consequently decline.
