Houston Homeless Get Their Own, Unofficial Library
The people at the Beacon can use a good distraction.
Since the start of the new year, the homeless day center has seen a 20 to 30 percent increase in clients as more people fall victim to the worsening economy. Tracy Burnett, the director at Cathedral Health and Outreach Ministries, which runs the Beacon, has met local nurses and construction workers, and families who moved to Houston for jobs that suddenly disappeared -- "people who haven't been homeless before," she says.
The Beacon provides a hot meal, laundry and medical services every Friday through Monday, along with things like unlimited coffee and sweet tea to make people feel comfortable. There's also a book shelf, which until recently had been pretty much empty.

Now the Beacon has crates of books at its disposal, and the books are flying off the shelves. Burnett might bump into a client engrossed in a novel or biography; one recently gave her a history lesson on Abraham Lincoln.
"You can tell they've transported off into a different world," she says. "It's probably the best place they've been in a long time."
Through a partnership with the Houston Public Library Foundation, the non-profit that supports the city's 43 libraries, anywhere from 300 to 1,000 donated or out-of-circulation books will make their way to the Beacon every month. Two shipments of about 1,000 each have arrived since the program started three weeks ago. Burnett estimates that 150 books are leaving the shelf every day. She isn't expecting them back.
"All we ask is that they pass it along to someone else once they're through," she says.
Some of Houston's homeless take refuge in the local libraries, using the computers to search for jobs and check e-mail, or just staying and reading, according to Susan Bischoff, president of the library foundation. But it's impossible to get a library card without a Texas address. Now people without one can take books with them anyway.
"Sometimes they pass them on, other times they don't," Bischoff says. "We're just delighted that they're reading."

74 total points were scored in Oakland on Sunday in one of the wildest games of the NFL season to this point.
The game featured 939 yards of total offense with plays that looked more like a game of Tecmo Bowl than something you'd see in the NFL.
Tampa Bay torched the Raiders on the ground as running back Doug Martin broke James Wilder's single game record of 219 yards rushing, nearly 29 years to the day after he set it.
The Raiders fall to 3-5 on the year, dampening their playoff aspirations, while the Bucs move to .500 at 4-4.
Here are the game grades and more analysis for Oakland.

Porter-Gaud shooting guard Khris Middleton has gone from unnoticed to unbelievable in just three months.
Last spring, Middleton grew four inches to 6-6, joined the Carolina Celtics AAU basketball team, showcased his skills in tournaments all over the Southeast and finally gained the attention of college recruiters.
His recruiting list now includes 36 schools and is growing daily. He's not only one of the hottest prospects in the state, but in the South, according to the Scout.com recruiting site.
"It was a matter of a month after joining the Celtics that I got the first phone call concerning Khris," Porter-Gaud coach John Pearson said. "After the first month, I started getting calls and letters for him regularly. After the third month, I started keeping a list."
That list includes South Carolina, Clemson and the College of Charleston. It's also a diverse list and includes such schools as Harvard, Virginia, Pitt, Cincinnati, Virginia Tech, Iowa and Wichita State. It's a list that should grow since Middleton is only a junior.
"It's been real exciting," said Middleton, who averaged 12 points and eight rebounds per game as a sophomore for the Cyclones. "It's really exciting getting taller and getting more exposure."
Middleton says playing in the ACC appeals to him, and Clemson and Virginia Tech are currently at the top of his list.
"I like the small-town, college atmosphere both schools offer," Middleton said. "When I visited those schools, they made me feel like I was part of their family, which I really like."
Middleton plays AAU basketball for the Celtics, a team made up from players from South Carolina and North Carolina. The Celtics, who have 10 Division I prospects on their roster, went 54-10, winning tournament championships in Washington, D.C., North Carolina, South Carolina and Atlanta, earning a No. 13 ranking nationally by Breakdown magazine. He led the team with 21 points per game. His biggest moment might have been when the Celtics played the Lowcountry Heels, which features Pinewood Prep's Milton Jennings, also one of the top juniors in the state. Middleton drove the length of the court and hit a bucket at the buzzer to give his team a two-point victory at Littlejohn Coliseum.
Pearson, who has been involved in basketball all his life, including 17 years as a coach, said he's never seen a player's stock rise so quickly.
"It's a combination of a lot of things," Pearson said. "His growth had a lot to do with it. He's always had significant skills. He was playing for a team out of Atlanta and he caught fire just about the same time he started playing for the Celtics. He fit in well, had some big scoring days and his confidence grew. He just had a great summer.
"He's got a great basketball IQ," Pearson added. "He knows the subtleties of basketball. He knows the court part of the game. He's got to work really hard on his core strength," Pearson said. The stronger he gets, it will make him improve even more. He has to get stronger."
Middleton's development has allowed Pearson to move Travis Smith from shooting guard to point guard. Middleton and Smith form one of the top guard tandems in the state as the Cyclones try to stop Jenning and Pinewood from winning its third straight SCISA title.
"We're ready to play each other," Middleton said. "That's all I can say."

This is beautifully written. Like you, I've a friendship that simply isn't the same as when it was established. We've both grown and gone in different directions – both good, but different nonetheless. I still wish her nothing but the best, but want the very same for myself.
Lovely post to kick off the week!

PLEASANT HOPE, Mo. — When Carl Fisher first got behind the wheel of a school bus at 16 years old, he likely had no idea that he was embarking on a career that would last into his 80s.
Shortly after his 16th birthday on Dec. 12, 1946, Fisher took over his father's school bus driving duties so his father could focus on farming. Fisher stuck with the bus job for the long haul: He went on to log some 2 million miles, transporting three generations of some families.
Over the years, Fisher owned about a dozen different school buses.
In 2011, Guinness World Records determined him to have the "longest career as a bus driver."
Fisher retired last year at age 81 after nearly 66 years as a school bus driver.
Now, Fisher has earned another honor: The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education named him a "Pioneer in Education" for his commitment and contributions to public education in the state.
Fisher and four other "pioneers" were recognized on Monday during the Cooperative Conference for School Administrators in Columbia, Mo.
"The 2013 Pioneers in Education have made a lasting impact on education in Missouri," Commissioner of Education Chris Nicastro said. "These great leaders have given their time, talents and treasure to better serve the children, and future, of our state."

In total firefighters from Lewiston, Clarkston and Asotin County raised $10,000 with the annual "Fill the Boot" campaign this past Saturday. The Clarkston Fire Department raised over half that money alone.
"This year we raised just a hair under $5,600," said Captain Jim Babino of the Clarkston Fire Department. "So it was a really good year. And that money will stay here locally and just help the families that have challenges from the disease. Whether that be for their kids or whatever."
Funds raised through the event will help support research, healthcare services, and day to day support for those struggling with muscular dystrophy in our region.
Thank you to everyone that donated.

A Year After Gabrielle Giffords: Mental Health in Arizona
Compass Mental Health continues to serve patients in need despite widespread cuts in funding, job losses, and thousands of seriously mentally ill Arizonans without coverage
Pressured with a $1.15 billion deficit, Arizona lawmakers made sweeping cuts in healthcare, with $50 million slashed in state funding from mental healthcare alone. As a result of these cuts to their funding, hospitals and healthcare agencies were forced to lay off thousands of workers, including hundreds of mental health case workers and counselors.
As 2012 begins, over 12,000 seriously mentally ill Arizonans who don't qualify for Medicaid are without the healthcare they need most, including access to case management, brand name prescriptions, transportation, housing, and therapy. "Eliminating these programs does not eliminate mental illness in patients. It forces them to give up the treatment they so desperately need, until the patients find themselves in an emergency room or hospitalized."
The cuts to the mental health system in Arizona eliminate resources previously in place to help the seriously mentally ill, like the gunman in the Tucson shooting Jared Loughner, and could lead to increased risk of harm to the individuals as well as the community. Jared Loughner was recently found incompetent to stand trial for the crime, after being diagnosed with schizophrenia. Although there is no indication that Loughner had ever been treated in Arizona for mental illness and there is no direct link between mental healthcare cuts and the shooting, it has become increasingly difficult for those in need in our state to receive treatment.
"The programs that were eliminated or limited helped patients who may have the potential to become a danger to themselves or others. Without access to support services such as a case manager, medications, or on-going therapy, patients are more likely to decompensate, leading to increasing symptom presentation and a greater potential for their becoming suicidal or violent toward others," warns Dr. Alexander."They are often overlooked by the system until these people experience a crisis event, as was the case with Jared Loughner last year."
"Most of these crisis events result in these individuals being seen in an emergency department or admitted to a hospital where our agency, Compass, in coordination with the hospital's treatment team, will provide emergency assessment, intervention, and transitional care throughout the crisis episode," Dr. Alexander explains. "The only point of care for many patients in need will be emergency services and hospitals. Even these crisis resources are limited for many patients, with the crisis system seeing cuts of its own. These crisis resources will only provide for patch worked patient care, the persistent needs of the seriously mentally ill patients will not be met, and we will see an increase in crisis episodes. This creates more expense to the system as a whole and leads to greater risk for these patients and the community."
Compass Mental Health helps Arizonans faced with a mental health emergency. Our emergent care is initiated at the hospital during the crisis event, and maintained post-discharge with aftercare services to support and stabilize the patient. This program is offered at no cost to Valley hospitals. For more information about this program, call Compass at 602-633-6200.

Creating the blog was a great way to at least have an online depository of stories and milestones. But going back to work and somehow finding that work-life-blog balance has been somewhat of a challenge. And I know there are TONS of great moms out there that somehow pull it off. I need to obtain their secret sauce and poor it all over my Cheerios in the morning.
Well, with that said, the little man turned 3 last week! 3 - I can't even believe it has been 3 years and at the same time it feels like its been forever. 3 is an interesting time because now he definitely has his opinions and proclaimed to me that he would like a Spiderman birthday party. Which sounded like a great bunch of fun to me. Who doesn't like a great superhero birthday? And so close to Halloween meant that I would get at least two uses out of the costume investment.
This year, just like last year (even though I always say I'm not going to do such a big party again) we had about 30 kiddos running around our Marvel City, complete with Spiderman bounce house.
I did not bake the cake - or even the cupcakes this year. I had the awesome people at Great Dane Bakery hook me up with a fantastic Spiderman themed cake. Which I awe a big thank you to Tiny Oranges for posting on her Facebook page and helping me find a great bakery!
Anyway - enough of the rambling - you would think I hadn't posted in months - here are some pictures from the party:

The stock is acting so weird last couple days after a major beat on both top and bottom lines. Yes there is AfterMarket weakness but the OE (over 60% of revs last quarter) is SO darn strong and getting stronger. What gives? Problem not specific to BEAV - Transdigm and Triumph are both hit as well. The latter got hit after beating on both top and bottom lines yesterday and RAISING guidance - Hello??? A significant portion of TGI's revs are AM. They will find a floor soon after the weak hands depart and resume upward trajectory...
Absolute nonsense! This one is being traded as though there is some news that only a handful know about. Nothing on the wires, yet the stock is has been pummeled down 10% amid a bull run for the rest of the market. Maybe BEAV owns FB?
Nothing new in this type of action. This is a Casino you realize. Testing the recent low today & I suspect folks will load up here ( the smart folks at least ) . Don't let go of your shares because of this action. I will qualify my opinion by saying that it might even go lower from here because quite frankly no one really knows how low these short sellers will drive this stock in order to get it cheaper.
SAme thing happened to CAT. Blowout earnings and raised guidance and got trashed (but has since recovered). IMO people looking for reason to lightne up equities.With a target of $55 (+40% !!!),PE lower than S&P average, a near monopoly, a huge moat (FAA approvals) around their business and a clearly growing business still a long term core holding.

The Giants start their?offseason workout program?in about two weeks and their OTAs begin on May 28th. Manning also told Giants.com that this isn't a surprise to him.
?I was still experiencing some discomfort as I began my normal offseason preparation, and after consultation, we felt the right thing was to have Dr. Anderson clean out the ankle."
Manning also said that this procedure is to avoid any future problems with his ankle.

Katrina, Five Years Later: A News Consumer's Guide To The Anniversary Stories
Brian Williams emits manly concern over the situation
If you aren't aware that this weekend marks the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, you will be by the time Monday rolls around.
Newspapers, TV shows and websites will be heavy on commemorating the event. Here's what to look for:
1. The use of music
We're guessing some pre-Katrina shots will include some second-line marching, maybe some Mardi Gras parade scenes with lively music (Professor Longhair, no doubt). Generic ominous strings will accompany radar shots of Katrina in the Gulf. If anyone uses Randy Newman's "Louisiana 1927" ("Louisiana, they're trying to wash us away..."), forget it -- that's as bad as "There's something happening here...." in a `60s documentary.
2. The rehabilitation of Michael Brown
Brown was the unqualified political appointee who utterly mishandled the Katrina response, aided and abetted by Bush administration apathy. But since he got canned, Brown has energetically and tirelessly engaged in a media tour, where he has charmed reporters and shoved the blame for the federal response elsewhere. He doesn't get challenged on it much, even in a recent interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper. Don't believe it -- his incompetence and lack of experience were key in the whole affair.

3. How graphic will it get?
There are plenty of pictures of corpses lying, covered or uncovered, in New Orleans streets in the wake of the storm. Does the show you're watching show only a few quick shots, or does it linger accusingly over a series of photos with a mournful but soulful soundtrack?
4. Houston's role
First, we will open our hearts. You'll see pictures or footage of buses pulling up to the Dome, and of course shots from the upper-deck of the cot-filled field. We'll be lauded for dropping off clothes that don't fit us anymore for use by refugees.
Then things will change. If it's TV, you'll see crime-scene tape and flashing lights in front of Fondren apartment complexes. You'll hear from white Houstonians saying they're not prejudiced, but it's a just a fact that Katrina brought a ton of the criminal class, and gang warfare, to our heretofore pristine borders. (Extra points if disputes between Louisianans and Houstonians at Westbury High are mentioned.)
5. Can it happen again?
This is how most of the stories will end. As if you didn't know the answer, which is "yes."

The Panthers have been thoroughly outplayed in the first 30 minutes at Raymond James Stadium here and now trail Tampa Bay, 17-3.
Jake Delhomme has thrown a couple of interceptions -- although, to be fair, both of the passes were touched by Panther receivers first. The second one was a killer. Carolina was on a good drive inside the 2-minute mark when Delhomme tried to let Muhsin Muhammad win a jump ball deep against Tampa Bay corner Aqib Talib.
Moose couldn't quite do it, though, and the deflected ball was scooped up by Tampa Bay safety Jermaine Phillips, who returned it 58 yards. Carolina didn't allow any more points, but still trails 17-3 at halftime.
The good news for the Panthers: they came back from exactly the same deficit against Chicago earlier this season to win 20-17. And Steve Smith is having a fine day (5 catches, 93 yards in first half).
The bad news: This one is on the road, Tampa Bay seems more motivated than Chicago and the Panthers' mojo seems to have been lost somewhere on the flight over Florida. Carolina isn't able to run the ball at all so far -- 16 carries, 32 yards -- and that has contributed to a paltry offensive output of only 7 first downs and 3 points so far.

Scott you said it best, steve is having a great day of receiving the ball! So why dont we go to him more, and pass more! I think we are averaging little more than 2 yards a carry. Then all john wants to do is 3 running plays in a row WHY NOT try to get a first down to make field position better! IM JUST SICK OF THIS!

This has been a topic before, but usually it was related to the FAA standards.
I have heard that in Europe, the standards for eyesight are far more strict than in the U.S. In the U.S., as long as your vision is correctable to 20/20, you're okay to fly for the airlines.
Is that the same for European carriers? I've read that Lufthansa only allows for something like 1.25 diopters off naturally, with no correction allowed that supercedes that. Is this correct?
What are the vision standards in Europe I guess is what I'm asking.

This is "Chattanooga Choo Choo." According to Wikipedia, ""Chattanooga Choo Choo" is a big-band/swing song which was featured in the 1941 movie Sun Valley Serenade, which starred Sonja Henie, John Payne, Glenn Miller and his orchestra, The Modernaires, Milton Berle and Joan Davis. It was performed in the film as an extended production number, featuring vocals by Tex Beneke, Paula Kelly, and the Modernaires." I recorded this film of a 1960's-1970's "Alpha Beta" market record that contains a compilation of "Big Band" hits. This features Tex Beneke & The Modernaires. Tex Beneke did live shows two decades after the end of the Glenn Miller Orchestra of which he was the front man. He got much of the Glenn Miller Alumni & the Modernaires to also play for his tour in the 1960's so the sound and performances were true to form and were spot-on. The recording quality is excellent and the performance is amazing. It was also done in true stereo. It was featured on the album titled, "Reunion in Hi-Fi." I love the energy of this particular performance and stereo sound quality of the song compared to even the original from the 1940's.

Fighting the Stigma of Cross Stitch!
Cross stitch has become a bigger and bigger part of my life in recent years. It's always annoyed me that there hasn't been the kind of kits and patterns that I want to stitch so my solution was to make them myself. There is still a stigma with cross stitch that it is a 'granny craft' and although I believe there is a lot of beauty to traditional cross stitches I want to create modern and fun patterns and stitches that can appeal to a new generation of stitchers.
Everything in my shop is unique to Rather Unseamly. I spend the time thinking up the designs and creating them. Nothing goes into my shop unless it is something I want to stitch and if I believe the design will appeal to a modern audience. Often enough I find myself with at least 3 of my patterns on the go at once!
I find inspiration from all over the shot. Sometimes it's something I see online through blogs, Facebook or videos. Sometimes it's some sarcastic comment that a friend has made. Sometimes even I don't know where my designs pop into my head from!
I'm always looking for new ways for cross stitches to be more than just pretty designs. I'm currently developing a range of kits and I'm starting to look into cross stitch jewellery. So stay tuned because 2015 is going to be an exciting year!
There's nothing like a pizza. It's one of my favourite foods. Even Geeks like Pizza! Unleash your nerdy side with this pizza related maths formula!
Featuring Full Cross Stitch and Backstitch Lettering.
Pattern is 100x70 stitches and will be approx 7x5 inches when completed on 16 count Aida
Included in the pattern is a colour chart with floss legends in DMC and a finished image of the item.
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to open the file, which you can download for free here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
These designs are copyright Beki Harrison 2013. You may stitch them yourself and give the finished products as a gift, but you may not share, distribute, re-sell the pattern, or sell the finished product for profit.

The Trail Blazers' offseason officially kicks off this week at the NBA draft combine in Chicago, where general manager Neil Olshey will look for the next Damian Lillard or perhaps lay the groundwork for a summer trade. On Thursday and Friday, a pool of 63 prospects will undergo measurements and medical examinations, perform drills in front of league executives and interview with teams. Throughout the two-day process, all 30 teams will be represented, allowing what Olshey likes to call the potential to "generate deal flow" -- or trade talk.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 III Review
Latest Camera Reviews
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G80 Review
Your Comments
35 Comments | Newest Oldest First | Post a Comment
Sony certainly seem to have raised the bar recently, releasing some pretty awesome camera's in a number of different categories. The only problem is I won't spend circa £700 on a compact.
Seriously…an 'essential' rating. 4/5 for value for money.
Well I suppose your 'review' was money well spent by $ony.
This will be DOA just like the PS Vita.
The 24-70mm lens is a deal killer for me. The old 24-120mm is more versatile even if slower.
This is what the Canon G1X or even G1X II should have been. Sony is on a roll and still has no direct competition with Canon still trying to guess what they should come up with and are behind the curve.
Nikon and Panasonic will soon have a 1" compact camera so competition is growing…mainly Sony, though also along with Fuji, Panasonic, and Nikon are the drivers while Canon and Olympus are in the backseat.
Ahhh Mike, don't be doom and gloomed :-(
It will be ok, now go take your brand new RX100 III and start taking pictures. :-)
@Hugh that is the Canon S100 lens you are comparing with the older RX100 is 28-100 so the new rev III is wider but shorter and faster
Mike is probably just a pissy Canon fanboy.
Hugh, what are you talking about? The RX100 I or II never had a 24-120mm????
I enjoy the reviews, and with the electronic viewfinder added to the Sony, it seems like a neat camera. But I've never figured out how image quality is evaluated to provide consistency across reviews. Is the methodology published on the site somewhere? The 5 given here seems high, so I guess it must be relative to snapshot/compact cameras, and exclude other sub full-frame sensor cameras.
Plucked up the courage and raided the bank to put my order in - due for delivery Thursday. Just hope it's not a big expensive mistake. I'm not a good photographer, but just enjoy taking good quality photos even if the composition isn't great. Have a Nex5N with the EVF but it seems to spend most of its time with the 18-55 and is not quite what you have in your pocket for that magic moment. Hoping this will do the job, but UK price is certainly eye watering @ £699.
The portrait picture shows that the RX100 M3 has the same focus issues as the RX100 "M1" and the RX1R. It focuses on the side of the image (ears) instead of at the eyes (even if you focus with one central focus point). It seems to prioritize on long vertical lines, i.e. focuses on the contrast difference between the face and background.
I would have loved if Sony would have adapted their focus strategy.
Decided to purchase the RX100 Mark I. It can already be bought for as little as 350 euro's. On it's introduction the RX100 was hailed as a secondary camera for those who don't want to carry around with their DSLR's all the time, but still want to make excellent pictures. Due to the price drop, while the camera itself is still one of the best out there, it has actually become an interesting buy for those who are buying a first camera and feel that image quality and compactness are the two main criteria.
It is great that you put out the review and early but there are a lot of mistakes. I can see that your review was taken from the older models and duplicated but you need to go through it again as there are many errors. One example is "The Sony DSC-RX100 III has fast maximum apertures of f/1.8 at the 28mm wide-"... this is incorrect. It has the f/1.8 at the 24mm wide. Most mistakes that I see are in the lens range.
Bunch of non interesting and already know points in this review.
Try to be a bit more professional and engaged and tell us if they fixed all the weak points in previous rx100 models: 1. flash recycle speed so people with kids can use this camera.
2. Lens corner and mid sharpness at different apertures/focal lengths. There is some funny guy here that is missing the versality of 100mm. On a lens that cant resolute past few mpix past 50mm. Duh. Just give us some details on this lens sharpness on 70mm.
3. Min/max Iso, aperture and shutter speed settings, so we can use this camera like any other enthusiast p&s.
Great pocket camera but lousy $800.00 camera
Gradual evolution from Sony with this Mk III but at a cost…...£700, ouch that's pricey, too steep for me to even consider.
I'd like to see / read a real long term user review /test to get real feedback on how this works for most of us average users.
Any chance of PB doing this ?
Just received it and had a quick play. Hate to say it, but it feels worth the £700. Just comparing it to my Nex 5N and it does everything that does and more in a good solid package that fits in the pocket. Just a bit fiddly, but I don't think it will take long to get used to. Time to give it a whirl.
Looks like a great pocket-cam, but I would like a few things added for the price.
- built in grip, which could also make room for a beefier battery
- external battery charger included
- add an HDMI cable to the box too
- touch screen with touch interface comparable to Leica T
- maybe make the screen fully articulated
- better located tripod mount, so you can attach a small quick release plate for a tripod without blocking the battery compartment door
Otherwise, change NOTHING! (OK, a lower price would be nice ;~)
In "Ease Of Use" there's a mistake: "...the ability to choose from 30 - 1/12000th second shutter speeds ..". It's not 1/12000th second, of course, but 1/2000th second!
Otherwise a respectable review of a camera for stills and video, features and performance of which are quite astonishing. In the film era you would not even have dreamed of such a thing, compact and capable!
A friendly word of caution to British potential buyers of this marvelous camera. As good as it might be, it is not worth £700. It's worth $800(the US price which does not include VAT) + the 20% VAT you have to pay in the UK. That is 800/1.7 = £470 without VAT and with VAT that should be 470 x 1.2 = £565. NOT £700. This is a typical strategy of companies, they try (and apparently succeed since they keep on doing it) to make a lot more profit from their initial UK/European customers than they do with their US customers. For some reason Sony and all the others want to charge you more than they charge the Americans for the same product.
You don't believe me? As an example check the prices of the RX10 which has already been on the market for 6 months. Initially they tried to do the same (i.e. charge a lot more than USDPrice /GBPUSD exchange rate x 1.2 (VAT)). Check now at amazon US and amazon UK and you'll see it's $1300 and £880. Divide 1300/880 = 1.47. Divide 800/700 = 1.14 for the RX100III suggested prices. A rip off of about 30% that if you wait out and don't bite, will go away in a few months. And you should do that if you can, so that Sony and the rest get the message and stop treating their UK/European customers as if they're stupid rich.
It would be useful to take the same shot with different f stops to show the depth of field, for example on the picture of the leaf. This looks to be a good camera, it has everything that I need, viewfinder adjustable screen and small size. Pity about the price. I am still waiting for the ideal camera.
I was told today (June 28, 2014) by Sony (1 877 865-7669) that the accessory grip model AG-R1 is NOT compatible with the RX100M3. Further, this accessory has been discontinued. The new leather case, (Sony LCJ-RXF/B at $84.99) has been designed to be compatible with all three RX-100 models. It appears to have a modest bulge on the right-hand grip side.
Correction: There doesn't appear to be a bulge on the new camera case (Sony LCJ-RXF/B at $84.99). There is a detailed look at it by TheDigitalDigest on YouTube at
Awesome specs, terrible price.
It will sell well but if it was $600 Sony would do better.
Even $600 is pusing it when there are bigger sensor, interchangeable lens camers to be had for $400, like Fuji XA-1, or for that matter Sony's own mirrorless cams.
Rare stupid comment; interchangeable camera won't take any picture without a lens. Maybe you lived under the rock for last 100+ years, but for any camera system, lenses go easily up to 1000$ for something that's not even at pro level.
If Sony put lens that's worth 600$ into the system they sell for 800$ guess what…
On the other hand, when they put 20$ lens into a 600$ camera (sony pz 16-50 on e.g. nex6), then you must have lived under the rock if you are ever to buy that.
Just saw it for AUD $375.58
I have the Panasonic DMC-FZ1000 Bridge-Cam which i must say is superb, especially in the picture quality dpt, it is rumoured that the 1" sensor used in it is supplied by Sony and is in fact the exact same sensor as is used in the RX100-MKIII, seemingly Panasonic were so impressed by the RX100-MKIII`s sensor and asked Sony if they could purchase/use the Sensor in their forthcoming new model FZ-1000 Bridge-Camera, soon talks took place,Sony agreed,and thereafter an agreement/deal took place for supply of the Sensor to be provided to Panasonic, please dont hold me personally to account on this story, but thats what i did read somewhere on one site reviewing the FZ1000.
RX100 M2 has less image noise. RX100 M3 is too heavy handed on the NR. G1X M2 for my money
No proper audio! No way to add a mic. You are stuck with the sub par internal mics. So great video and crappy sound. I could do with out the flash and EVF. Give ma a mic input and headphone jack if you are going to include video. I have the MII version and at least it allows you to ad the Sony mics. I would have hope the new version would improve on the audio side. Oh well maybe the next version.
I also see no real improvement on the photo side of things. My MII version takes great stills. And if Sony puts out a firmware update to the XAVC-S codec the video will be even better than it is now.
The price is stupid doe,s sony think we are nitwits, there are a lot of cameras better than this at a lot better price
you can see it…....
Got this camera 2 weeks ago. Tired of lugging around DSLR and lenses, and this sounded like an ideal back up. I LOVED the camera, super lens, fast focusing, light weight and relatively easy to set up. Here, the happy story ends.Took some images at the ocean, and some macro shots of flowers. On previewing the shots, there were black diagonal areas top right and bottom left.Useless images!Called Sony , but since I did not buy directly from them, there was nothing they could do! Went online and read some negative reviews. Biggest complain was the infamous black images in the corners. THEN, someone got it right. The shutter was not opening all the way when the camera was turned on! One person said that he had to move it back with his fingertip! One does not expect this from a $800 camera, from Sony. Sadly, I packed up the camera and sent it back.I am really upset, because this is a fabulous little camera. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so, what was the solution.
BEWARE. All these reviews don't pay any attention to the camera's solidity. How long will it last? Will Sony respect its warranty? I had a RX100, which broke twice. It was just out of warranty, and the repairs were at extreme costs. These cameras are (I believe) built in China. They are not made to resist high humidity, changing temperatures, shock, etc. Be very careful of what you read in reviews - that's only part of the story. Usage over several months means a lot more.
I am sure that Sony could have reduced the price by another $100, because $800 is too much. Yeah, the camera is nearly flawless. Its just great. Surely, there are minor issues here and there, but you cannot find a single competitor which would challenge this SONY camera. Lack of competition means "we can set any price we want", and that is really bad. I still dream about it. Amazon and Hardware.eu still sell it for this price. Maybe, in a couple of months the SONY RX100 III will be less costly, because the fourth edition is already on the market.
Just bought one new for £408 ($593). An Australian import I think via an eBay shop. But it's still typically £570 in the UK. It is expensive, but I wanted something I can put in my pocket that gives me decent quality and this is the best one for the price. I can live with it's quirks; it looks good, feels good, takes excellent photos for the size and does just about everything I could ask for. Obviously I would have preferred a little smaller, 8mm - 1200mm at f/1.0 through its full range and full frame but maybe that will be the M5. I don't need the M4 video so this one was the best value for me. No point being picky, its an excellent camera. I'm a Fuji convert but their pocketable cameras don't compare unfortunately. So, I've only had it two days but I'm sold and glad I chose it. I had a Canon S110 before that, but the quality was not quite up to the mark. Can't wait to get shooting.

I seen how they both work and wanted to be apart of something greater then a team but become a part of the family. If you don't have your family backing you then who will. – S.M.

RU, or as he's known in the writers' room: the cute one, is relatively unappreciated in his time. RU's YouTube show, RUviews is watched by literally multiple people every month and his Outhouse articles have helped line many a bird cage. Before you send RU a message, he knows that there are misspelled words in this article, and probably in this bio he was asked to write. RU wants everyone to know that after 25+ years of collecting he still loves comic books and can't believe how seriously fanboys take them. RU lives in Akron Ohio (unfortunately) with WIFE, 'lilRuRu, and the @DogGodThor. You can also find him on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, & even Google+ (if anyone still uses that).

3i enters talks over managed accounts
Buyout firm 3i Group is in talks with a handful of its long-standing investors about setting up managed accounts each worth about £100m, according to investors.
The UK-listed firm is offering "four or five" investors private agreements with management fees of about 1% and carried interest of about 10%, two investors said.
Managed accounts typically offer investors lower fees and a greater say over investment strategy.
In an interview with Financial News last month, 3i chief executive Simon Borrows ruled the firm out of returning to market with a traditional buyout fund "for several years" and was instead looking to develop managed accounts with key investors.
The new approach could prove significant if the firm is to garner shareholder support amid heightened tensions with Sherborne Investors, the corporate raider led by Edward Bramson, which increased its 3i stake to nearly 5% late last week.
This came in the same week as regulatory filings disclosed that Burrows spent about £7.7m taking his personal stake in 3i to 0.8%.
Managed accounts have grown in popularity for European fund managers. However, 3i would be the first large traditional buyout firm to operate such mandates in Europe. In the US, firms such as Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Apollo Management already have managed account relationships.

Today's beauty tip may not be a big surprise, however it's one that can be easy to forget. Choose your cotton pads wisely – thick, fluffy cotton pads or cotton balls tend to absorb more product (and drip) which makes you use more product in the process. So, you can save product (and money) buy choosing thinner cotton pads instead as you'll need less product for a saturated pad.
Next time you buy your cotton pads keep in mind that thin cotton pads absorb 50% less product and, because they're easy to wield, do a better job of removing those last traces of makeup residue or nail polish. Also with thin cotton pads there's no fluff ending up on your skin. :)

CALGARY, Alberta — Key topics addressed at this year's National School Transportation Association (NSTA) annual meeting and convention included safety and security, regulatory updates and action plans for improving business for contractors.
The association added a new event to this year's conference — a Safety & Security Summit that took place ahead of the main convention events and covered such topics as preventing children from being left unattended on the bus, hours-of-service compliance and special-needs transportation.
In a general session, representatives from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration and the Transportation Security Administration were on hand to provide updates from each agency. NSTA also updated members on the progress of its strategic plan, which was unveiled at last year's meeting and was to focus on business development.
To that end, during the Government Relations Committee meeting, members discussed "Save Our Business" action plans, with topics including anti-privatization, labor, transit, fuel tax exemption and clean diesel. Becky Weber, NSTA lobbyist, provided an update on legislative activity, and Robin Leeds, NSTA's industry specialist, informed members on regulatory issues. "We spent a great deal of time discussing transit issues, which we see as the most important challenge to the school bus industry in several years," Leeds said.
In May, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) released a Notice of Proposed Policy Statement regarding its intention to revise its "tripper service" policy and limit the incursion of public transit into school transportation.
In response to a wave of opposing comments from the transit industry, NSTA mounted an aggressive campaign asking members to post comments supporting the proposed policy on the public docket. "Since our meeting, we've had an overwhelming response, even after the deadline passed," Leeds said. "The docket now contains more positive comments than negative."
The FTA has notified the association that it will consider the additional comments under an extended deadline.
New to the conference this year was the development of the Go Yellow, Go Green Award, created to recognize initiative and commitment in pursuing environmental issues. In tandem, NSTA's Clean Diesel School Bus Task Force recommended the creation of a school bus operator "NSTA Green Certification" program available to all NSTA members. During the conference, NSTA's Manufacturer, Supplier and Technology Committee met to begin developing the certification criteria and process.
The following awards were handed out at the conference:
Golden Merit Award
Hall of Fame Award
Distinguished Service Award
Outstanding Driver Service Award
Go Yellow, Go Green Award
Larry Pierce of Pierce Coach Line in Roslyn, N.Y., was named SCHOOL BUS FLEET's Contractor of the Year.
NSTA also recognized the winners of its International Driver Competition at the conference:
Small Bus Class
Conventional Class
Transit Class
The NSTA Mid-Winter Meeting will be held Jan. 25-28, 2009, in Orlando, Fla.

Soon to be new jeep owner
I am looking to buy my very first jeep! I have a quesiton though. The jeep I am looking at is a 1997 jeep wrangler 4.0 it has 160,000 miles on it. 4 inch lift sitting on 33's. The lift was just done last year. Brand new tires and soft top. It is very clean inside and out, it shifts like brand new you cant feel it shift at all. The guy that owns it has his own shop and is a mechanic so I know it has been kept up to date. I feel the price is a little to high they want $8000...what do you guys think?
Hard to cay but ya, I think it's a little steep too.

Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on December 31, 2011.
The first documentary about the late, great Geraldine Page produced by her award winning daughter Angelica Page.
This project's funding goal was not reached on December 31, 2011.
Upon winning her Academy Award® in 1985, legendary star Geraldine Page was named "the greatest actress of the English language." Since her death almost 25 years ago, not one book or documentary examining her prolific professional career—nor her mysterious and tumultuous private life—exists.
Her only daughter, award-winning actress & filmmaker Angelica Page will now take on that honor and task herself. Through her own vivid memories, private home movies, unseen last interviews and rare footage, she will explore and expose the deepest core of this never before shared story—a celebration of a graceful, gracious and irreverent artist—culminating with placing a star on Hollywood Boulevard in her mother's name next to her own.
Have a question? If the info above doesn't help, you can ask the project creator directly.
