text: Seattle Public Schools In Seattle School Testing Scandal, 'The Most Likely Motive Was Sabotage' By Kyle Stokes & Gabriel Spitzer • Dec 2, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Incidents of tampering with a set of standardized tests were probably the result of intra-office quarrels rather than an attempt to get away with inflating scores, according to an independent investigation into the suspicious test results at Beacon Hill International School in Seattle. KPLU obtained the report through a public records request. Seattle School Board Delays Vote On Changes That Concerned District Watchdogs By Kyle Stokes • Nov 4, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU After an outcry from parents, Seattle Public Schools administrators delayed Wednesday's school board vote on proposed changes to the policy that broadly explains how students are assigned to the district's 97 schools. District officials had insisted the changes were meant to streamline the Student Assignment Plan, a fundamental document they said had become unwieldy and self-contradictory. Critics Put Seattle School District On Defense Over Student Assignment Plan By Kyle Stokes • Nov 3, 2015 rytc / Flickr UPDATE — Seattle Public Schools superintendent Larry Nyland has asked school board members to delay their vote on proposed changes to the district's Student Assignment Plan. KPLU's original story, originally posted Tuesday morning, follows here: Already fired up by a teachers strike and a district-wide staffing shake-up, Seattle Public Schools watchdogs are sounding the alarm yet again — this time, over proposed changes to an arcane-sounding policy: the Student Assignment Plan. Amid Clamor For Change, Seattle School Board Incumbent Calls For Stability By Kyle Stokes • Oct 30, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Listen Listening... / 3:53 Many of the parents angry at Seattle Public Schools are not likely to see Marty McLaren as the insurgent school board candidate she once was. To many of them, after one term on the board, McLaren's now a part of the district's edifice. Seattle School Board Considers Later Start Times For High Schools And Middle Schools By Jennifer Wing • Oct 21, 2015 rytc / Flickr Listen Listening... / 1:12 The Seattle School Board is considering a plan that could lead to teenagers and tweens being more rested and ready to learn. A proposal is going before the board which calls for a later start time for middle schools and high schools. Angered Over Seattle Schools' Staffing Shake-Up, Parents Briefly Disrupt District Meeting By Kyle Stokes • Oct 15, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU News Fired up over school district administrators' proposed staffing shake-up that would remove teachers from as many as 24 schools, a group of roughly two-dozen parents briefly shut down a Seattle school board committee meeting Wednesday night. It's Over: Seattle Teachers Vote To End Strike, Accept New Deal With District By Kyle Stokes • Sep 20, 2015 Elaine Thompson / AP Rank-and-file members of the Seattle teachers union formally ended their strike against the state's largest school district, voting Sunday evening to ratify a proposed three-year contract. The vote brings to an end the first teachers strike in Seattle since 1985, which canceled six days of classes for the district's 53,000 students and sent parents into a frenzied, week-long scramble for childcare. Seattle Teachers Still Must Vote To Accept Contract Before Strike Can End By Kyle Stokes • Sep 18, 2015 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo Listen Listening... / 1:30 Thousands of Seattle teachers union members will meet Sunday and decide whether to accept a tentative contract agreement and finally end a strike against the school district, which canceled six days of classes. Seattle Teachers' Tentative Deal Tackles Issues Beyond Pay By The Associated Press & Kyle Stokes • Sep 16, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Striking Seattle teachers have won unusual concessions in a tentative contract deal: guaranteed 30-minute recess and teams created to address racial disparity in schools. Experts say the dispute that delayed the school year by a week reflects a strategy shift by teachers nationwide to take on broader issues that promote the public interest. Seattle Students Back To School Thursday After Striking Teachers, District Reach Tentative Deal By Kyle Stokes • Sep 15, 2015 Ted S. Warren / AP Listen Listening... / 2:22 KPLU's Kyle Stokes reports on how the announcements rolled out and what the tentative agreement includes. UPDATED — Seattle Public Schools' 53,000 students will return to classes Thursday after district negotiators reached a tentative, three-year contract agreement with the striking teachers union, both sides have announced. No School In Seattle Monday, But District Makes New Offer In Weekend Contract Talks By Kyle Stokes • Sep 13, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Listen Listening... / 0:50 Seattle Public Schools negotiators offered to attach a pay increase onto a plan to lengthen the school day for students during talks with the district's striking school employees this weekend, bending to a union demand that has been a stumbling block in talks on a new teacher contract. With No New Talks Set, Seattle Teachers Strike Will Stretch Into Third Day By Kyle Stokes • Sep 10, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Negotiators for both the Seattle teachers union and the school district dug in their heels on Thursday as each side painted the other as unwilling to return to the bargaining table to negotiate a new teacher contract. The stalemate will once again close Seattle Public Schools on Friday, extending into a third day a teachers strike that's keeping 53,000 students out of classes. Seattle Teachers Will Go On Strike, Closing State's Largest District Starting Wednesday By Kyle Stokes • Sep 8, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Listen Listening... / 1:32 Seattle teachers union members will go on strike for the first time since 1985 on Wednesday, a move that cancels what was supposed to be the first regular day of classes for the roughly 53,000 students in Washington's largest school district. Unable to resolve their differences over how much to pay educators, district proposals to lengthen the school day and a union push to limit standardized testing, union leaders ended negotiations on a new teacher contract without an agreement around 6 p.m. Tuesday night. Seattle Schools Investigating Drinking, Groping During Garfield High Field Trip By Kyle Stokes • Jun 10, 2015 Creative Commons A Garfield High School student might have groped two classmates while on a school choir trip to New Orleans in March, a Seattle Public Schools investigation has found. The district also says the school's choir teacher and chaperones were drinking during the trip, and that one chaperone had "inappropriate contact with the student while under the influence of alcohol," according to a district statement. Questions Of Legality Surround Washington Teacher Strikes By Kyle Stokes • May 18, 2015 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo Listen Listening... / 1:23 After expressing doubts about the legality of ongoing teacher walkouts, state Republican lawmakers have scheduled a hearing on a bill that would block the state from paying a striking teacher's salary or benefits during the strikes. Spokane Republican Sen. Michael Baumgartner in a statement said teachers are making political points with children bearing the cost. "These strikes use our children as a political football," said Baumgartner, one of the bill's sponsors. The hearing is scheduled for Tuesday. Meet One Of The Seattle 'Smarter Balanced' Testing Boycott's Youngest Organizers By Kyle Stokes • Apr 17, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Listen Listening... / 5:10 Late last year, Elijah Falk was just another eleventh grader at Seattle's Nathan Hale High School who had never heard of the Smarter Balanced Assessments. Then a friend told him all about it — that the test was more than eight hours long, required for every high school junior in Washington state but, in the end, mostly unnecessary to earn a diploma. Falk was shocked. "The huge amount of testing I've had to go through during my short time as a student— it's taking away from my time in the classroom," Falk said. "That kinda crosses a line where it's not helpful." Why Would The Seattle School District Want To Authorize & Oversee Charter Schools? By Kyle Stokes • Apr 13, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Listen Listening... / 1:44 Seattle School Board president Sherry Carr would rather Washington had not entered the charter school game in the first place. But eventually, she says the state's largest district may have to decide whether it wants to play. Only one Washington school district, Spokane, currently decides whether to allow applicants to start charter schools within its boundaries and oversees their operations once they open; they're the state's only local "charter authorizer" — for now. Despite Earlier Promise To Boycott, Seattle High School Will Give Required Tests To Juniors By Kyle Stokes • Mar 26, 2015 Joe Wolf / Flickr Eleventh graders at Seattle's Nathan Hale High School will take a state- and federally-required standardized test after all, an apparent reversal of an earlier decision by staff, students and parents to boycott the exams this year. "The [Smarter Balanced assessment] is required by the state. Therefore, to comply with Seattle Public Schools directives, students will be tested" in April, Nathan Hale Senate chair Melinda Greene said in an email to parents Thursday. Two Seattle School Districts? Education Committee Sends Proposal To Full House By Kyle Stokes • Feb 19, 2015 Cactusbone / Flickr Listen Listening... / 1:21 A bill dividing Seattle Public Schools into two separate districts took another step forward in Olympia Thursday after House Education Committee members sent the proposal to the full chamber by a 16-to-5 vote. Though it doesn't mention Seattle by name, the bill would bar any Washington school district from enrolling more than 35,000 students at the opening of the 2018-2019 school year. Only Seattle Public Schools currently fits that description. Lawmakers To Discuss Giving Seattle Mayor Power To Appoint School Board Members By Kyle Stokes • Feb 2, 2015 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Listen Listening... / 1:18 The role of Seattle's mayor in the city's education system will be up for debate in Olympia this week. A House Education Committee will take public testimony at its meeting Tuesday on a bill that would give Seattle Mayor Ed Murray the power to appoint two of the seven members of the school board. Seattle School Board Offers Superintendent Job To Larry Nyland By Kyle Stokes • Dec 10, 2014 Seattle Public Schools Seattle School Board members offered the district's open superintendent job to the current interim, Larry Nyland, at a special meeting Wednesday night, aiming to slow years of staff turnover in top administrative positions. Why Seattle School Board Members Reversed Course On A Search For A Superintendent By Kyle Stokes • Dec 9, 2014 Seattle Public Schools Listen Listening... / 1:21 If it's possible to not seek and yet still find, Seattle school leaders hope they have their man in interim superintendent Larry Nyland. School board members appear poised to strip the "interim" tag from Nyland's title with a vote at a special meeting Wednesday night that would open up talks to keep him at the district's helm for two and a half more years. Seattle School Board Weighs Options For Interim Superintendent Nyland's Future By Kyle Stokes • Dec 3, 2014 Seattle Public Schools One item on Wednesday night's Seattle School Board agenda drew a lot of attention when it was posted on the night before Thanksgiving: a proposal to open up talks to hire interim superintendent Larry Nyland on a permanent basis. Ahead of Wednesday night's meeting, two board members floated another plan: extend Nyland's temporary contract into 2016, keeping Nyland at the district's helm on an interim basis for another year. Seattle Parents Say Students Don't Get Enough Time For Lunch, Recess By Kyle Stokes • Nov 6, 2014 Susan Walsh / AP Photo Seattle Public Schools students don't get enough time to eat lunch, according to a group of parents. Dozens in a group calling itself "Lunch and Recess Matter" rallied at the Seattle School Board meeting Wednesday. Seattle School Board Rejects Downtown School, But Supporters Cling To Hope By Kyle Stokes • Nov 5, 2014 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Seattle Public Schools leaders have dropped a bid for a property that could've been the site of the district's first downtown elementary school in more than six decades. School board members balked at the estimated $53 million cost of renovating the vacant Federal Reserve Bank building, noting the district would have to take on debt it might have trouble paying back. In voting 5 to 0 to drop its application, the board passed up a golden opportunity for effectively free land in a pricey real estate market, the school's supporters say; the U.S. Department of Education could have deeded the property to the district for practically nothing. Four Red Flags Found In One Seattle School's Now-Invalidated Test Results By Kyle Stokes • Oct 15, 2014 Wes Chapman / Flickr Someone altered test responses at Seattle's Beacon Hill International School in a way that significantly increased the elementary school's test scores. State education officials have now thrown out the entire school's results after noting "heavy erasure" marks on the test forms. Whatever the reason for the alterations — both Seattle Public Schools and the state aren't using the word "cheating" — the changes produced some pretty startling test results, as a state analysis shows: State Freezes Part Of Seattle's Special Ed Funding As District Takes Step To Improve By Kyle Stokes • Oct 1, 2014 Lynne Sladky / AP Photo State education officials have raised the stakes in Seattle Public Schools' efforts to improve services for the district's most vulnerable students, recently announcing they will hold back $3 million in federal funding until the district can get its troubled special education department back on track. On Wednesday night, the Seattle School Board members took a step toward potentially getting that funding back, hiring an outside firm to help district officials implement a plan to fix its special education offerings. Seattle Schools To Convene Task Force To Review Handling Of Sex Assault Claims By Kyle Stokes • Sep 11, 2014 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Seattle school leaders will convene a task force to review the district's handling of sexual assault cases, acknowledging in a statement late Wednesday that "substantial work is required to bring the district into compliance" with federal laws designed to protect victims of sexual violence in schools. The move is Seattle Public Schools' latest response to criticism of how district employees handled the case of a Garfield High School student who alleged a classmate raped her during a school field trip in 2012. Downtown Seattle Groups See Golden Opportunity For Their Own Neighborhood Public School By Kyle Stokes • Jul 28, 2014 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Seattle Public Schools officials may soon get their best opportunity in years to open a public elementary school downtown, and various downtown interests are now pressing district leaders to take advantage of it. District officials submitted an application earlier this month to move into the vacant building at Second Avenue and Spring Street, which once housed a Federal Reserve Bank branch. Federal agencies no longer want the property and are considering whether to deed the building to Seattle Public Schools practically free of charge. If the feds grant school officials' application, downtown groups want to make sure the district follows through. Report Faults Seattle Schools For 'Lack Of Urgency' In Serving Most Vulnerable Students By Kyle Stokes • Jul 22, 2014 Lynne Sladky / AP Photo Seattle Public Schools' efforts to educate students with disabilities of all sorts are "in need of urgent, substantial and significant improvement," according to a scathing report released Tuesday, faulting district staff from the administrative offices all the way down to individual schools. The report itself was commissioned by the district office's special education team as part of an effort to correct, as the authors call it, "an obvious and chronic lack... of urgency" around special education — and to bring Seattle Public Schools back in the good graces of both state officials and of federal law.

Favorite Lunch Recipe: Tomato Mozzarella Sandwich
favorite sandwiches — here's mine. A hot, gooey, toasted, juicy mozzarella and tomato sandwich.
This sandwich just bursts with flavor, and yet it is so simple. It reminds me vividly of the summer I spent in northern Italy, wandering through city streets and stopping in student cafés for a sandwich and a tall, cold glass of fizzy water. The water cleansed my palate and let the vibrant flavors of fresh, scarlet tomatoes explode in my mouth. The hot cheese, gooey between slices of crisp toasted bread, stretched out in long strings between bites. The taste and texture of this sandwich is one of my favorite memories from traveling — and it is still probably my favorite lunch. This sandwich is so simple it hardly needs explaining, but here, for the record, is how I make my tomato and mozzarella sandwiches. Do you ever make these? If you've never had one, now is the time; tomatoes are in high season! I used a fresh Black Krim tomato (so sweet, so juicy!) from my garden, and some very fresh mozzarella, packed in water.

Donnie Darko - seriously if I wanted to pick it apart to understand it, I'd do math instead.
The Lovely Bones - holy hell could that movie have been more dull or pathetic and LONG
Seven Pounds - depressing and wtf was the point, did he think killing himself redeemed him for his mistakes?
Shutter Island - at the end I was like, really? Did his last sentence mean he was lucid but wanted a lobotomy so he could forget it all? What?

The New York State Young Democrats May Be Kind of Tone-Deaf
Keep the change.
For the past four weeks, we've been bringing you news of the Occupy Wall Street protests roiling Lower Manhattan, as the self-identified 99 percent transform their tales of struggle and deprivation into demands for systemic change.
Maybe it's just because we have those voices fresh in our ears, but something about today's press release from the New York State Young Democrats sounded a jarring and discordant note:
We can see what they're trying to do there -- their guy, Obama, was elected with slogans about change. They want to keep him, and his change. So, sure, "keep the change." But tone is a tricky thing. "Dear Americans, 17 percent of whom are unemployed or underemployed, keep the change!" Potentially awkward.
Perhaps it's no surprise that the times that the Young Democrats haven't noticed the tonal shift emanating from Zuccotti Park. NYSYD's young party loyalists and the anarchist agitators who got Occupy Wall Street off the ground probably didn't sit at the same lunch table in school. But even leaving aside the "Keep the Change" slogan -- high-handed in the best of times, betraying a let-them-eat-cake obliviousness now -- that still leaves us to deal with the Young Democrat's unfortunate choice of venue.

Two-for-two, Young Democrats! Boss Tweed says "Keep the change!"
In fairness, this event was probably planned well before Occupy Wall Street put such a fine point on questions of change and how much we get to keep. Also, it sounds like a very nice event actually, "bestowing the first ever Downstate Young Democrats' Change Awards on three honorees for specific accomplishment they have made for progressive causes: Staten Island Assemblyman Matthew Titone for his efforts to bring Marriage Equality to New York, Majora Carter for her work on eco-development in the Bronx and Comptroller John Liu for his exposure and unraveling of the CityTime scandal."
Also, come on: These are not even fully mature Democrats. They are Young Democrats! Cut them some slack already.

MIT Sloan MBA Admission Interviews are different. Instead of the standard Why MBA and Why MIT Sloan MBA questions, the Adcom conducts Behavioral Event-Based Interviews (BEI). The idea behind BEI is to evaluate how you responded to challenging situations. Your response to past events is an indicator of your future behavior.
Interview Conducted by: AdCom or Alumni
Duration: 45 minutes to 1 Hour
Style of Interview: Formal
Tip 1: Read your Essays and Resume
MIT Sloan is different. The Interviewers are well prepared and will read your essays and resume, several times. They will find out the gap in your essays and would ask probing questions.
Tip 2: Be prepared for Follow-up Questions
Remember, MIT Sloan MBA AdCom wants to understand how you behaved in the past. To find out more, the team will ask lot of follow-up questions. Each candidate has a different story and the questions will be accordingly. After you have prepared the preliminary list of follow-up questions, ask your friends, family members or expert consultants to read your essays and list the follow up questions.
Tip 3: Have lot of Stories
The Interviewer will steer the conversation according to areas that are important to her. It would be extremely difficult for you to do the contrary. Instead of steering the conversation, be prepared with lot of stories highlighting your achievements, your behaviour during crisis and your maturity in handling conflicts. Be prepared with stories that are not mentioned in the essays.
Tip 4: MIT Sloan Qualities
MIT Sloan AdCom wants to find out whether you can influence others, maintain professional relationship in a team environment, and have the drive to set goals and achieve them. Keep MIT Sloan qualities in mind when you prepare your stories.
Tip 1: Don't Generalize
Remember, when you mention your achievements or describe your behaviour in challenging situations, don't generalize. Your behaviour in each situation should highlight different aspects of your personality.
Tip 2: Do not dress in casuals
Recommended dress code:
Men: Suit and tie
Women: Pants, Suit or a skirt suit
Tip 3: Be on Time
As in any other interview - be on time. For Alumni initiated interviews, call them and confirm the time and location of the interview. For MIT Sloan, reach the venue 30 minutes before the scheduled time.
Tip 4: Don't Exaggerate or Lie
When lot of follow-up questions are asked, it is easy to get carried away and exaggerate your stories. Don't! Although your weakness might come out with the stories, the overwhelming strength of your personality will compensate any weakness. By not mentioning events that reveals your weakness, the stories will have visible gaps. The AdCom will not give you the benefit of the doubt if any part of your story is missing.
Key Questions
1) Any updates to your application or anything new you've accomplished at work?
2) Tell me about an incident when you persuaded your colleague.
3) Tell me about a time when you mentored someone.
4) Tell me about a time when you had to assert yourself, when people were not receptive towards your ideas.
5) Tell me about a time when a team member didn't meet your expectations.
6) Tell me about a time when you had conflict with your team member. How did you resolve it?
7) Tell me about a time when you resolved a conflict between two people.
8) Tell me about a time when you failed or didn't do justice to your responsibilities (talent)
9) Have you received any constructive feedback from your team?
10) How will your team members describe you?
11) Tell me about your personal goal that you are working on.
12) What are some of the greatest risks that you have taken?
13) What is your proudest accomplishment?
14) What qualities would you like to come across to the AdCom team?
15) What kind of projects are you doing now?
16) Do you have any recent accomplishments that are not mentioned in the application?
17) Do you have any questions for me?
P.S: The above list is the general questions that you can expect. Each question will have follow-up questions according to your profile.

We audited 540 patients undergoing elective first-time coronary artery bypass grafts at 18 institutions. The purposes of the study were to describe the variability in transfusions among institutions and to determine factors that may account for variability. Mean homologous red blood cell use per patient was 2.9(±0.1) U (institutional range, 0.4 to 6.3 U). One hundred seventy-seven patients (32%) received plasma (institutional range, 0% to 97%), and 119 (22%) received platelets (institutional range, 0% to 80%). After controlling for patient and surgical practice variables, transfusion practice factors still accounted for variation in red blood cell transfusions. Variation in patients receiving plasma and platelet transfusions among institutions was determined in part by prophylactic transfusions. We conclude that blood component usage for coronary artery bypass grafts differs widely among institutions. The variability in use of these components is accounted for in part by unnecessary transfusions in otherwise routine, uncomplicated coronary artery bypass graft procedures.

An abundant migratory bird found in a variety of habitats throughout Illinois, the mourning dove is the most harvested game bird in North America with estimated U.S. harvests of over 19 million annually on average from 2005-2009. In Illinois, hunters bagged an estimated 873,182 doves in 2009. Because of the mourning doves' widespread distribution, hunting opportunities for the species can be found statewide on both public and private lands. Due to the small amount of equipment needed and fast action, dove hunting can be a great first hunting activity to participate in for young people. Several public hunting areas offer youth dove hunting opportunities and chances are you can find a site near you. Please take the time this fall to introduce a young person to the sport of dove hunting.

Grocery store chains ditch coupon doubling, introduce digital coupons
Are we beginning to see the end of coupon doubling? Seems like we might be headed in that direction.
Several grocery store chains nationwide have announced in the past few months that they will no longer be doubling coupons. Among them, Meijer (which is coming to Wisconsin next year), Kroger and most recently (Kroger-owned) Dillons. The trend is expected to continue to other Kroger-owned chains and could create a ripple-effect throughout the industry.
In Wisconsin, we're used to limited opportunities for coupon doubling as it is. To my knowledge, the only grocery store chain in Wisconsin that still actively advertises doubling is Roundy's, and that's only a couple of days a week and with specific limits. »Read Full Blog Post(4)
Roundy's fined $43,000 for price scanner inaccuracies, sign problems
Roundy's has agreed to pay the state of Wisconsin $43,022 to settle allegations that several of its stores had price scanner inaccuracies and signage issues last fall, state officials said Tuesday.
Inspectors with the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection found the violations at 43 Roundy's stores across the state, including Pick 'n Save, Copps Food Center and Mega Marts, over two days in October of 2012.
Weights and measures inspectors ordered that the inaccurate prices found on the first day be corrected, and returned the next day to ensure that the corrections were made. But on their return visit, they found seven instances where a store failed to correct the price overcharges found on the previous day, state officials said in a news release Tuesday. »Read Full Blog Post(13)
The irony of Roundy's Monopoly
With our popular revelation that your chances of winning a house in Roundy's Monopoly game on the first try were one in 575 billion (that's not a typo), I can't think of a better day to post my first blog.
I hope this will be a forum where I can share some interesting nuggets of info that didn't make it into my stories, hear your reactions, answer any follow-up questions you may have, share breaking developments on ongoing stories, and get tips on stories you want me to look into.
In the case of Monopoly, it's ironic that your best chance of winning a big prize was by entering the sweepstakes for what some people consider the "consolation prize" — a seven-day cruise for two valued at $5,000. »Read Full Blog Post(9)

Chapter 14 The Digestive System And Body Metabolism Answers
I'm just wondering, if you were bulimic, how do you increase your metabolism or digestive system process?
Eating healthy!: Developing healthy eating habits, with protein based meals, small meals but frequent. Just like everyone else who is paying attention to healthy eating.

"I LOVE this place. A few months ago, I needed a relay
replaced on my car and my co-workers recommended Stuttgart.
They did an amazing job and were honest and the rate was quite
reasonable. They also explained what my car needed in a clear
manner without being condescending."
Kathryn J:
"We have been taking all our cars here for years…
an Audi, a VW Toureag and a Porsche. They do great work and
are reasonable and honest. My mother takes her BMW here and
my sister and brother in law bring their cars in as well. It's a
family treasure! Valerie is a pro and incredibly helpful"
From Insider Pages:
Robert W. writes:
"I am fortunate enough to own two fine
German automobiles and was in the automobile parts business
for almost 30 years. Over the years I have had a relationship with
Stuttgart as both a supplier and also as one of their customers.
You'll not get any of the "attitude" that is so prevalent today.
Rather you will be treated fairly by friendly people that stand
behind their work."
We treat our customers like family.
We'd love to get to know you, not just your automobile!

Roberto Valenzuela's Medium Format Photography
by Roberto Valenzuela
September 25, 2013 —
Like most photographers, I am always searching for new inspiration. Most recently I found it in the form of a medium-format digital camera. Although I have been a full-time photographer and educator for nearly a decade, I suddenly felt completely lost in the marvels and possibilities of shooting in an entirely new format, and like a 10-year-old in the driver's seat of a roaring Ferrari, I also felt a bit overwhelmed.
Above: "Palm Springs, California, is home to some of the most dramatic landscapes I have seen, with thousands of these wind turbines decorating the landscape. In order to capture the detail of the cloudy skies along with the wind turbines, I used a 3-stop ND filter. I wanted to make sure I didn't lose any detail in her white dress on such a bright day so I under-exposed the image by a stop-and-a-half. Medium-format files are so robust, I am able to bring back high-quality shadow detail from a file that was underexposed by 3 or more stops," Valenzuela explains. (Photo was taken handheld. Focal Length: 55mm; Aperture: f/4.8; Shutter speed: 1/180 of a second.)
I must admit, though, the main reason I took the plunge and purchased the, yes, very expensive Hasselblad H5D (renting is also an option!) was to feed my artistic soul. I was beginning to become frustrated with the limitations of 35mm capture and, even worse, smaller sensors. To obtain the image quality I was seeking, I had to take several shots of the same scene and mix them in post into a subtle HDR composite.
Only then would the highlights and shadow details come alive. If a person appeared in front of my lens, it was game over. It's also pretty tough to take several photos of a person without you or your subject moving even an inch. I am not saying that 35mm format is inferior to medium format; it's just vastly different. The 35mm is remarkable for what it was built to do. Canon, Nikon, Sony and other companies manufacture 35mm cameras to be robust, fast, flexible in low light, easy to carry and able to capture 6 to 14 frames-per-second. It is fair to say, I think, that 35mm SLR cameras and medium-format cameras are at opposite ends of the spectrum.
Above: Photograph of model and stylist Laura Hine in Beverly Hills, California (makeup by Robiat Balogun). Elinchrom's new Ranger Quadra lights were used to light up the photograph. "Medium-format's flash sync speed is a whopping 1/800th of a second, versus1/200 in most modern digital 35mm SLR cameras. Notice the incredible range of detail captured in her white jacket, from the brightly-lit left side of the image to the shadowy right side," Valenzuela notes. (Photograph was taken handheld. Focal Length: 100mm ; Aperture: f/4; Shutter speed: 1/750 of a second.)
For starters, medium-format cameras are much heavier than the beefiest SLR on the market. They only have one unmovable focusing point in the center instead of 20 or 30. They don't work well past ISO 400 due to digital noise. Last but not least, they were built for slower, well thought out and deliberate photographs. You are lucky if you can take one shot every three seconds.
But just wait until you see the files taken with medium format. They blow your mind, changing forever what you assumed digital capture to be capable of.
Of course I'm not saying that medium format will replace your SLR but rather complement it. At a wedding, I have a Canon DSLR on my right shoulder and the H5D on my left. For most applications, I use the Canon DSLR camera. However, during the many moments at a wedding where I see the potential for a really memorable image, I pull out the H5D.
Above: Photograph of model Sira Topic taken during one of my workshops in Lugano, Switzerland. "This was shot only using the natural light coming from the window inside an ancient church. Using Hasselblad's True Focus II technology, I was able to focus and recompose without the fear of being out of focus, even though I was shooting at f/2.4. " (Focal Length: 100mm ; Aperture: f/2.4; Shutter speed: 1/30 of a second)
During the getting-ready session, I use medium-format for key moments and portraits of the bride or groom alone with their wedding party. During the ceremony, I use it for a wide shot of the whole ceremony to capture the finest details. The time allocated for bride and groom portraits receives plenty of medium-format attention as well. And of course, during the reception, I like to use medium format for the first dance and the wide shots of the room where capturing minute details is crucial. I'm also now planning with brides to venture beyond their wedding venue on their wedding day to take further advantage of the medium-format camera and the beauty of the files it provides.
Above: Fine-art portrait of model Miriam Bassi taken in the hills of Lugano, Switzerland. The model was lit by Elinchrom Ranger Quadra strobes. "The camera's ability to capture shadow detail in the woods inspired the location for this portrait," says Valenzuela. "Notice the detail in each leaf on the floor and the different shades of brown in the trees." (Special thanks to Marian Bader and Jolie Zocchi for their help setting up this portrait. Retouching by Jonathan Penney. (Photo was taken handheld. Focal Length: 55mm; Aperture: f/4.5; Shutter: 1/60 of a second)
Above: The London Eye Ferris wheel, shot handheld and exposed for the sky, f/6.8 and 1/500 of a second. "The depth of the file is so robust that I was able to bring back the poles' and wires' details without a problem. With these cameras, it's usually best to underexpose and then bring the shadow detail back in," Valenzuela says.
Shooting in this format has forced me to slow down and think about the lighting and composition of the shot before I take it. I've shown a sampling here of what I've taken so far in various photographic genres (landscape, wedding, macro, portrait,etc). You decide if medium format is another option for your shooting style.

I built a frame out of 4x4's and laid 2x8's down then put in a set of stairs and built an upper deck,After being told it wouldn't fit right by a carpenter. My dad helped me with his ryobi tools and all of my RYOBI tools I will never stop using RYOBI

I worked my butt off building this baordwalk and deck and stairs using all Ryobi tools and was very disapointed that I didn't get any votes or win something. Ryobi is the best tool in the world and I would put any one of thier tools up to any other tool at any time.

LEXINGTON - The Wando girls lacrosse team didn't have the smoothest trip to its first championship game appearance since 2011. The Warriors bus broke down just before getting off I-26 so the start of the title game with J.L. Mann had to be delayed for nearly 15 minutes while the Patriots bus went to pick them up.
After that, Wando never got on track offensively as J.L. Mann won its second straight state championship with a 13-11 victory Monday night at White Knoll High School.
"We didn't play the complete game we've played before," Wando coach Jess Stralkowski said. "The first half, we forced the ball and made way more mistakes than they did. We knew we were a better team than that and we made a pretty good comeback but it was a little too short."
The Patriots (15-3) were in their third straight title game despite losing nearly their entire starting lineup from a season ago. J.L. Mann coach Kristy Schumacher thought that experience played a factor
"They wanted what those other kids did," Schumacher said. "They know the feeling and they wanted it. I couldn't be prouder of this team."
Wando trailed by as many as five in the second half but got within one twice before running out of steam. Jessie Bunting's steal and goal made it 10-9 with 7:48 remaining and a shot less than a minute later could have tied it but was wide.
After getting that reprieve, J.L. Mann rattled off three goals in a 25-second span to take a four-goal lead with 5:52 remaining.
"You win the ball, you win the game and they won the ball more than us," Stralkowski said. "That's what happened there in less than a minute."
Bunting, who scored six goals, thought they lost composure after falling behind.
"We got down on ourselves," the senior attacker said. "We fell behind by a lot and instead of getting after the ball we gave up and got our heads out of the game. We wanted it but we didn't want it enough."
Schumacher made a switch on the draw that allowed the Patriots to foil the Warriors momentum.
"The ball was going our way but we weren't coming up with it," she said. "We came away with the ball in those situations and it's all about having possession. We were able to put those in the back of the net."
J.L. Mann took control in the first half and withstood the rally spearheaded by Bunting to deny the Warriors their second state championship in the five years of lacrosse being sanctioned by the South Carolina High School League.
Wando (13-2) got goals from Bunting and Skylar Horner to take a 2-0 lead four minutes into the match. But after Horner's goal, the Warriors suffered an 11:45 scoring drought while J.L. Mann scored six unanswered goals.
Bunting finally broke the scoreless string at the 9:26 mark. Each team scored once the remainder of the half to allow the Patriots to take a 7-4 into the break.
Stralkowski felt like the Warriors needed to come out aggressively in the second half and score quickly but it was the Patriots who struck early. Two goals 40 seconds apart and just 1:49 into the half pushed the lead to five, 9-4.
Wando staged its rally at that point but it was too little too late. But it does not diminish what they accomplished this season.
"We're graduating nine seniors and this is a heartbreaking loss for them," Stralkowski said. "We've got an amazing talent of sophomores and freshmen coming up so they great thing is there is always going to be next season. We have such a great girls coming up in the rec department that I feel we'll be here again."

Howard Dean tells Netroots: We're going to win a public option
PITTSBURGH PA – 'The only health care reform worth doing is the public option. If you give away the public option you have no health care reform. It is a real choice for the American people,' Governor Howard Dean told over 1,500 bloggers, journalists and activists here at the National Netroots conference. Commenting on the disinformation, yelling and heckling at recent health care town-hall meetings, Dean said, for the astro-turfers 'these meetings aren't about health care. They are about anger.'

Automatic Brake System
The automatic braking system delivers a safe and uniform reduction in speed without noticeable pull on the bicycle. The brakes can be purchased along with your trailer, or they can be added later, with a small amount of out-of-the-box labor. The brakes are an important safety feature when pulling heavier loads, moving at higher speeds, or during emergency stops.
Sturmey Archer alloy drum brake hubs are activated by an actuator built into the tow bar. Using the bikes brakes, or going down hill, pushes the trailer toward the bicycle. A rod is moved in the actuator, which then pulls the brake cables and slows the trailer. Automatic braking wheels are hand built using DT stainless spokes. Brake hubs use a special solid axle but can be retrofitted with an Axle Quick Release option.

Each NFL season, there are plays made that will blow your mind, and that has been no different one quarter through the 2010 season.
Whether it's through trick plays, amazing catches, ridiculous returns, or even a punishing hit, there is always something to see when you watch a game.
This has been the case for the Kansas City Chiefs this year, as I take a look at their top 10 plays through Week 3 of the season.

jMonkeyEngine is a game development suite made especially for game developers who want to create 3D games with modern technology standards. The software is programmed entirely in Java, intended for wide accessibility and quick deployment.
Developer of 3079 here --
My game wouldn't have existed if it wasn't for this engine. This engine has done so many great things for me, and knowing it is purely Java based allows it to be completely cross-platform without any extra work. Did I mention it is free?
These guys deserve tons of credit. This engine is fast and full of features. It also includes a complete Software Development Kit with terrain editors and all sorts of gizmos.
Highly recommend this!
In response to other review comments:
* This engine does have the ability to determine mouse pointer position. How else did I do my inventory screen?
* This engine can do any type of 3D game, not just "Minecraft clones". Check out the jMonkeyEngine's site for more examples of what has been done by this engine.
Great game engine for any kind of indie game.
This engine is not perfect, but. It is ideal for many seasoned to experienced programmers that want to go into the world of videogame making.
If you use the SDK, you have a great set of tools at your disposal, a variation of Netbeans with the engine fully integrated. a small variation of Blender to make the 3D models and import them quickly into JME, and your games run on PC/Mac/Linux thanks to the power of Java.
The engine gives o standard on how you want to code your game. So you can use the method you find fits best to your game and implement it into JME using Java and it will work for you. The tutorials and JavaDocs are great with a very helpful community.
Two bad points that pits this engine at 9 and not 10:
- You nee to have some experience in object oriented programming languages, especially Java. If you don't know Java don't start using JME. you need to learn Java first, it is a must.
- the SDK has a scene composer that allows you to create scenes for you to use in your game and save you some good lines of code. However, there are many missing features like ragdoll creation. This is mostly due to the engine not having enough manpower to add more features as they have priorities in making this as stable as possible.
sounds kike you deserve it
Nice, 3d!
Working with this engine needs some experience of game development.maybe a visual editor make it more more better( it has one in 3.1 alpha version). But I love this engine as the only true java 3d game engine.one good point is that Exporting for windows and android platforms is really easy. I hope it grows faster.
Congratulations to jMonkey staff for their work.
This engine is great. it supports 2d and 3d games. Any java developer should get this. Has made it possible to make awesome games.
Most flexible and fast engine. Great community. BSD license.
Likely the best Java game engine. Here is why:
+ Very well documented
+ Mature code base
+ Great support for Blender files (models, animations, materials, etc.)
+ Commercial friendly open-source BSD license
+ Active community
+ Convenient multi-platform support without needing to cross-compile any code
+ Supports Android (even with native Bullet support!)
- Physics has minor glitches, though that's more related to Bullet
- The SDK is only available for Netbeans. However, the engine itself is completely IDE independent.
