Panasonic's camcorders have topped our list for videomaking enthusiasts for a couple of years now, with the HDC-TM700 and HDC-TM300 before it. The progression hasn't been a huge one between each step, but when the core features are all present, there's not so much to improve. The HDC-TM900 is another incremental enhancement, but it does have features to make it worth choosing over its predecessors.
The most significant difference is the ability to shoot 3D. Whereas Panasonic's first 3D-capable consumer camcorder, the HDC-SDT750, was a full package including the 3D converter, with this generation Panasonic has switched to selling the VW-CLT1 attachment separately, and merely built in compatibility to key models from its latest range. These include the HDC-SD90 we looked at recently, and the HDC-TM900 on review here. The lens attachment will set you back a fairly hefty £280, but this still makes the combination cost around £200 less than the HDC-SDT750 did when it was released.
The same drawbacks apply, though. Calibration is advisable each time you remove and reattach the adapter, and this takes around 30 seconds. Virtually all the manual features are disabled in this mode, too, including the zoom. So you're left with a single framing option and automatic exposure. Video is recorded in the side-by-side format directly onto the sensor, effectively using half its area for each of the two stereoscopic portions, so low light sensitivity is halved as well. Nevertheless, in adequate lighting results are decent, with a clear sense of depth, and good colour fidelity, although the level of detail is slightly impaired over 2D footage.
Other than its compatibility with the 3D attachment, however, the HDC-TM900 is far more of a mild improvement to the HDC-TM700 than a groundbreaking new model. It is very slightly larger and heavier, but this is almost entirely due to the inclusion of a 3.5in LCD instead of a 3in one, which is a trade-off we're quite willing to accept. Inside, the TM900 has identical specifications to the TM700. It's built around a trio of 1/4.1in CMOS sensors, each with 3.05Mpixels. The lens has the same specification as well, providing a 12x optical zoom and 35mm equivalent wide angle, so you can capture more of the action at close quarters.
Panasonic has made slightly more use of the extra sensor pixels for its Intelligent Zoom system, however. This now extends the factor to 20x, rather than 18x. In theory, the Intelligent Zoom is better than a traditional digital zoom because it crops into the sensor rather than blowing up the picture electronically, and thereby preserves more detail. The image stabilisation system also takes advantage of the extra CMOS resolution. Now called Hybrid OIS, this combines optical and electronic systems for even greater vibration smoothing. We found this quite effective during testing, at least as good as competitor alternatives, and subjectively it seemed a little better.
does it have nighttime shooting like some sony (DCR-TRV models)?
I'm still waiting to update my sony hdr-hc3 hdv camcorder but no new camcorders seem to be able to match both its infra red recrording and its super slo-mo 240fps recording. Are there any upcoming HDD/flash based camcorders with these abilities?
Do you mean the infrared mode?
Forgive my ignorance, but do I have to buy a PAL-specific version for UK use? (I'm still using an analogue camcorder and am a bit out of touch!). Maybe it only matters when playing direct from camcorder to TV rather, and is irrelevant if I edit footage on a PC and burn to DVD?
Does it suffer from the notorious 'green colour cast' in auto white balance (AWB) mode that was the scourge of previous models from Panasonic? (Namely the 700 and 300 ranges)
The Panasonic HDC-TM900K camcorder delivers about as good a picture as is possible from a camcorder. I've used Sony, Canon, and Panasonic before, and all three make fine products. I've always been partial to Canon as I have many lenses for my still cameras, but my last DVD camcorder was a three chip Panasonic and that video of 7 years ago is still head and shoulders above the rest. A chip for each primary color makes a clear difference. I can watch that old video on a high definition TV and be quite pleased.
My first HD camcorder was a Canon ...the last tape based model they made. It works great, but the Panasonic is far better. Why?
The 5.1 sound is fantastic...even played on stereo speakers. The old issue with fan noise is gone...at least on my Panny.
The picture is as crisp as you can get. Each frame is worthy of a still photo. 60p is startling.
And best of all, the image stabilization actually works. My Canon barely does anything, and I have to use a tripod for everything or the picture is unwatchable... while the Panny's image stabilization is apparent right away. I zoomed out without the IS on and then hit the button. WOW. It really works. And the zoom is substantial.
My main complaint would be the Record Button placement. If you use the viewfinder, as I do in bright light, I mean real bright light as in New Mexico, the button is against your nose. You can't turn it on or off without movement. Of course, I like to edit, so this isn't a real problem...and you can always use the LCD screen.
Overall, this is a wonderful camcorder...and I've only begun to use it's features. But the main features, picture quality and sound, are top notch.
P.S. If you will buy this Camcorder I suggest for best deal at: www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B004I1KPG6/trustedreviews.com-21

show birds that you raise
I do not see much activity on this part of the forum. What breeds do you raise. As this may enhance the input. on the different breeds. And breeding questions. I raise fantails. white. black and working with saddles.
Have you shown them. What places have your birds got. I had some fantail but my dog got to them, now i have english trumpeters, and american komorner tumblers. I hope to get some more fantails soon. CJ.
I did not show this year. Returned to the fantails last year. But plan to raise and show some birds this fall I did not raise many this last year and will use what I have for stock birds. They are good useful birds that I can rebuild a stud of fans back. I was out of the birds for 6 years .Moved and then returned back and had to get some fans agin. Ive raised several breeds over the years. But have found I enjoy the fans. the most. I have12 pair of birds now. Hope to raise 40 or fifty young birds this year. What color of fans will you be getting.
Hello there,
I myself am also a fantail man. lol I currently have 10 pairs and several young birds from '02. Haven't raised any babies yet this year but I hope to raise at least 30+ That is my goal anyhow. I have in color's Black's, Black w/ Bronze and a Powder Sivler and Ash-red tail mark along w/ cream tail mark. That is in my American Fantails. In Indian's I have in color, Black Saddle's, Yellow Saddle, Grizzle,Kite, Black Self, Tail Mark and I think that's all. LOL I didn't realize how much color I had!!!!
I will be saleing some young birds though, unsexed pairs for $20 a bird if anyone who reads this is interested. That is only for the Indians. I can't afford to sale my American's as I only have 10!! I need more stock. lol
Welp I had better go now and shut up.
In the fancy of pigeons,
Nick Tull
I raised a black tail mark last year. I will put her in either the saddle program or back on a white. Shes out of a saddle hen and white cock. I will probably have some useful birds this fall that I could let you get. But I will wait until the moult is over before I really go thru them. Your ash red tailmarks what kind of qulity are they
I really like tailmarked, blacks, whites, and saddles, so probably some of those kinds but don't know? CJ. Thomas
re lee, My ash red and cream tailmarks are a breeding pair, I have yet to get a nice pair of babies off of them. I purchased them at the NYBS in Louisville, KY from a guy. I've gotten 2 inferteil eggs off of them this year. First round of eggs. I would say that they'd place somewhere in a show, not really sure how high or low. I'd say about middle and up. I'll try and get some pictures of them if I can.
I'd be glad to take some off your hands this fall.
In the fancy,
~The kid with fantails~

Its best to trim the tails on your fans, in breeding season. Trim the tail straight up from the outside of the back. this will basicly let the tail look somewhere near like a normal bird say the first 8 outside tail feathers on each side. then trim the vent close as you can to the body. This will help to get more fertile eggs. As it becomes easyer for the cock bird to top the hen. The feathers will grow back after the moult. When the moult kicks in I will pull three on eahside that has been trimed and everyother day until all the trimmed feathers are removed. This lets the feathers come in as the others are. Do you show in oklahoma. The oklahoma pigeon show is held the first week of december most of the time may very a week either way. Its at shawnee ok. Should have a fifth disdrict fantail meet there also. I will plan to be there and could have a few birds for you then. You could meet some real good fantail breeders there also. But if you can not We could set up some shipping or I could maybe meet you say in wichita kansas. Have you joined the central fantail club yet. I would recomend you do . What colors do you plan to work with? I will try to help other people out with some birds also but agin it will be this fall.
Hi Re lee,
Thanks for the breeding info. Every little bit counts. On the show's I have heard about Shawnee's show. I'll see what I can do. I might make it. Hey I pulled it off, to go to the show in Louisville,KY. Just depends on what the parents say. I've never showed before. Only in small shows like for 4-H but they do count too I guess. And no I haven't joined any clubs yet but hope to do that before the end of March. With school and all it's hard to attend shows, keep the birds up to tip-top shape. But there's juniors who do it well. Now do you raise American's or Indians? Right now what I have is a majority of Blacks but I'm planing on getting a few pair of Blue checks. DO you know Todd Bemis? That's who I got all my stock from.
In the fancy,
Nick Tull http://www.geocities.com/nick_tull20...?1044647256587
Tailmarks are basicly a white bird with the tail feathers of a different color. Makes a nice looking bird. It can have one of several colors in the tail. black red blue all with a white body. A body mark is the reverse of this. colored body with white tail saddle is white body colored wing ecept the outside flights remain white. NICK No I do not know him. And the junior members of any club is the future of the clubs and breeders. Most shows have a jr division. And its good that you have chosen the fantails. They are a compeitive breed of birds. And its allways nice to raise a good one. I raise what you would call american fantails. I just refuere to them as fantails. The indian fan is larger and probably easyer to raise .But I prfure the fantail due to It also being judged a bird of action also. So not only does it have to look good but it must also must be able to walk and demostrate its composer. Most of my birds have a ten and twelve inche tail
Try going to this site shows a tale mark and has the standard for the fantail on it. www.azpigeons.org/fantail.htm let me know if it goes thru
The link worked fine .. here are a couple of pics of my rescued fantail .. I am sure s/he is of no "stellar" quality, but I surely love this bird.
Here is FanFan the day after he was rescued .. pretty pitiful looking bird:
And here is FanFan a year later:
Terry Whatley
took a look at your bird . Looks like an indian fantail. and is a tailmark. but has aliuitle extra white in the tail. But still is a tailmark.

I've been told that it is very dangerous to get toxoplasmosis during
pregnancy. How it is possible to avoid toxoplasmosis infection and what is
the risk for the fetus?
6th May 2014 11:32 PM #2
Dear ecresc,
That is right.
It is rare for a baby to contract Toxoplasmosis in pregnancy but there are serious health risks if your baby does contract this disease. It is caused by the mother coming into contact with a parasite. The later on you are in your pregnancy the more chance your baby has of contracting the disease.
Unfortunately it increases the risk of: miscarriage, stillbirth and birth defects.
There are several precautions you should take in pregnancy to significantly reduce your chances of getting Toxoplasmosis. This includes:
- not changing cat litter yourself
- not touching stray cats
- feeding your cat tinned food rather than fresh meat
- washing all fruit and vegetables thoroughly before consuming them
- cooking meat properly and thoroughly washing all equipment used to prepare the meat
- wearing gloves when gardening
- don't drink unpasteurised milk or eat unpasteurised milk products

Also at the same time I had the TCA 35% peel around my mouth and it now has scars and it's still very red and it's been almost 8 weeks.
I need to know what I can do or what treatment to seek. I went out of the country to have this done and no doctor in the USA I have been to really acts as if they want to help me. please don't be one of them.
Don't leave the USA for any type of surgery. I did it because my sister passed away and she had paid for the procdures to be done for herself and her husband gave the trip to me fully paid. $7,100

The art of entertaining, gift giving and celebrating is treated with elan at All the Hoopla, a new retail concept from Lenox Group Inc. The 6,450-sq.-ft. format debuted in Twelve Oaks Mall, Novi, Mich., followed by two additional locations in Florida (Orlando and Palm Beach).
ŌĆ£We wanted to develop a store that is exciting, has a sense of personal expression and flair, and offers many ways to celebrate lifeŌĆÖs special moments,ŌĆØ said Joel Anderson, president-consumer direct, Lenox Group, Eden Prairie, Minn., whose brands include Department 56, Lenox, Dansk and Gorham.
All the Hoopla is intended as a destination store targeted at gift-givers, entertainers and home enthusiasts. The eclectic merchandise mix contains items from the various Lenox brands as well as other select companies. Home decor, tabletop, seasonal, social stationery, collectibles, baby, wedding and gourmet pantry are among the many categories represented.
The store environment is stylish and exciting, and packed with pizzazz. The atmosphere is upbeat and light-hearted.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs really all about entertaining and celebrating,ŌĆØ said Kathi McWilliams, creative director, JGA, Southfield, Mich.
The eclectic nature of the store starts with the facade, which juxtaposes polished Carrera marble mosaics with blue-stained shingles. The logo appears in stainless-aluminum letters above overscaled doors.
ŌĆ£We wanted the exterior to be as eclectic as the interior,ŌĆØ McWilliams said. ŌĆ£We went with this play of the sophisticated and sleek against the more common.ŌĆØ
The same type of juxtaposition is evident on the interior, where collected furniture elements blend comfortably with manufactured fixtures, and art photography mixes with chalkboard signage. An open industrial ceiling is accented with exposed cedar frames.
With so many different kinds of products on display, the design team worked to give the space a sense of organization. A group of fixtures extends down the center of the store in a runway pattern, providing a home for trend and/or seasonal merchandise. This runway area is intended for quick change-outs in line with the seasons and special events.Project Resources
Design and architect: JGA, Southfield, Mich.General contractor: Retail Construction Services, Lake Elmo, Minn.Lighting designer: Illuminating Concepts, Farmington Hills, Mich.Metal ceiling: Chicago Metallic, ChicagoIn-store graphics: Decor Group International, Madison Heights, Mich.Fixtures and millwork: Midwest Woodworking, St. Louis
The layout separates the store into several rooms that offer a segmented but open set of experiences. Each has its own individual style and flavor. Gourmet foods are housed in the ŌĆ£Cucina,ŌĆØ where baskets hang from metal rods that run across the ceiling. The tabletop area features a hanging metal structure to which various chairs are attached.
ŌĆ£We used all types of chairs, some new, some antiques and some from the flea market,ŌĆØ McWilliams explained. ŌĆ£We wanted to reflect the idea that most people live this way, by mixing the old and the new.ŌĆØ
The stationery and paper-goods area is set off with an oversized chandelier and hot pink-striped wallcovering.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs very intense, but itŌĆÖs also very girly and cozy,ŌĆØ McWilliams said.
Two destination departments anchor the store. The ŌĆ£MilestonesŌĆØ area is meant to celebrate lifeŌĆÖs special events. It features individual cubicles organized by date and/or occasion, providing shoppers with a highly focused set of ideas for individualized gift giving. Many of the goods displayed in this area can be personalized (with the service available on premise).
The ŌĆ£VillageŌĆØ area focuses on Department 56ŌĆÖs signature holiday villages. Accented with twinkling lights and an embossed-tin ceiling, it contains an impressive diorama made up of several villages.
The checkout area features a play on the store name. The area is highlighted with tongue-in-cheek definitions of the word ŌĆ£hoopla.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£The definitions appear on three large canvases behind the cashwrap,ŌĆØ McWilliams said.
The general flooring is a honed slate-like tile. A rich and highly grained wood floor is used to define certain zones.
All the Hoopla is dramatically lighted, with plenty of highs and lows. The overall effect is warm and sparkly, with individual product highlighting.
ŌĆ£A lot of the lighting is stem-mounted vs. track-mounted,ŌĆØ she added. ŌĆ£There is a different way to calculate wattage with the stems that allows the effect you want while staying within the code.ŌĆØ

Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, I fully support the passage of S. 3187, the Food and Drug Administration, FDA, Safety and Innovation Act. This important piece of legislation reauthorizes and establishes important user fee agreements for drugs, devices, generic drugs and biosimilar biological products. Furthermore, the bill improves the medical device approval process and modernizes FDA's global drug supply chain authority to ensure that the drug manufacturing process is safer.
The legislation also contains provisions to incentivize development of pediatric drugs and devices, spur innovation of new drug therapies for life-threatening medical conditions, mitigate drug shortages, and improve agency accountability and transparency in the drug and device approval process.
Unfortunately, Mr. President, I was necessarily absent from the Senate and, therefore, unable to cast my vote in support of this bill.

Taping Drywall
I'm about to finish drywalling my basement and going into taping it soon. I'd like to know the following:
1. Is there a tape/mud combo that I should use? I read somewhere that tape with adhesive should only be used on certain kinds of mud. What do most people use?
2. Is there a sequence in which one to tape first? Such as, vertical seams, horizontal seams, inside, then outside corners.
Any taping tips would be appreciated.
I am not a drywall professional by any means, but have done plenty of work with and without texture. I always use mesh adhesive tape, green mud for first coat, blue for second and third (maybe 4th and 5th if you are new to this. As far as taping I always work my way from the top down. I also fell in love with rounded plastic corners, they are so easy to do. . . .
use paper tape for new drywall work. mesh is used for repairs.
Use durabond 90 compound for the first coat.
Use premixed for the next two coats. This is not good for first coat. the mix it yourself type is much stronger.
2- not critical for a do it yourselfer . those concerns are adressed more for a professional thats trying to maximize profits.
Thanks for the replies
Hate to disagree, Bob, but durabond is overkill on new work using paper tape (especially for a large DIY job). Definitely has to be used for the first coat with mesh tape. No harm if the OP wants to use it, though.
Paper tape on anything other than small repairs. Regular ready-mix (green lid as some refer to it) is fine for all coats. Tape "butt joints" (where the 4' edges come together), "flats" (tapered edge joints), then angles. Install corner bead.
Next coats: run butt joints, flats, corner bead, angles (one side at a time).
Angles: I usually start with the "ceiling angles" (just my method). Run one side of an angle on the ceiling side. The next wall you run the "wall" side, and keep alternating to finish the room . That way you're not pulling through wet mud. Pull the wall angle opposite from the ceiling angle you've run. Again not pulling through the other wet angle.
Mud straight from the bucket is not "your friend". It needs to be thinned with water, a cup or more/5gal. to get a good consistency to "pull". You'll need a 1/2" drill with a "paddle" to mix or an old fashioned "potato masher" hand mixer (available at HD or Lowes.
Two or three thin coats over your tape coat (one coat per side for the inside corners) and bead will do better than trying to cover with heavier coats. Take your time. Sand lightly between coats if there are imperfections that justify....
And you should not!
Next apply the "filler" coat. Do this after you have finished the inside corners. Do the tapered edges then the butt joints. I use a 10" knife or trowel for this coat. The compound should be about 1/8" thick on the wall and make sure to feather the edges. Also make sure to spread your butt joints out. Don't worry about making the joints look smooth during this coat. This is primarily a filler coat.
Next knock down any ridges using your knife. You may sand if necessary. Now you are ready to apply the top coat. Apply the compound with a slightly wider knife. Feather the edges tight then pull the center tightly. This should leave you ready to sand at a level 4 finish.
When you sand make sure to where a mask. Use a poll sander on the walls and ceilings with 120 grit paper. Use a sponge in the corners and to touch any wall areas necessary. Make sure you don't burn down to the tape and try to avoid scuffing the paper face of the drywall.
when using dura bond for very first coat ,do you have to use tape at all?

Behavioral Issues
I was hoping someone could help my wife and I out with our GS Dillon. Dillon is currently 9 mos. old and is beginning to develop some behavioral issues. We walk him every day, take him to dog parks for socialization, doggie daycare and he's even been through the 1st level of obedience training.
Despite that he still jumps on furniture, chews furniture and clothing, rips up the rugs, sprints throughout the house banging into walls and other objects. Additionally during walks he goes absolutely insane when passing by other dogs and it takes all my strength to keep hold of him. Not only is it pretty embarrassing but could potentially be dangerous
I've seen the sit on your dog video and tried that but he would not calm down at all and even started biting me. I had to finally give that up after 40 minutes of trying.
Bottom line is we're at our wits end with him and need some advice on how to best proceed with training etc. Any input is welcome.

Have you gone to a trainer? He sounds bored. He needs to learn and understand that there are rules and failure to follow rules results in discipline. But it needs to be clear to him.
He should be crated when unsupervised. That way he can't eat furniture.
You are hitting the "teenage" stage. This can be a tough age. Stick with it, get with a good trainer, create rules and stick to them.

I agree with gsdsar; it sounds like he sounds like he needs a way to burn off a lot more energy. A tuckered-out dog is a content dog with a content human family. Is he crate trained? Have you tried bitter apple spray on the furniture? It's a band-aid solution, but it might buy you some sanity while you get to the root of the problem. Some dogs love the taste, though.
Thanks for the advice. This is a tough time for sure. What type of activities would you recommend to keep him engaged? Also when you say discipline, what would be an appropriate way to properly discipline?
Dexter the border collie was one heck of a pup, especially when he was nearing the dreaded teenage stage. We exercised him a heck of alot more and even so he still chewed the wall and carpet, so we crated him everytime he did it, does Dillon like balls? maybe if he does you can distract him with his ball when you pass other dogs. Dillon like all dogs will start pushing limits, most times a great trainer can be the golden ticket.
Every time he chews something he's not supposed to, "no" and give him an appropriate chew toy. Avoid wooden and rope-like toys because they feel too much like carpets, furniture and walls. Hard rubber toys like KONG products are best. Don't punish - redirect. If he's food-motivated, try a treat-dispensing puzzle toy. Give him raw bones (not cooked, and not the bones you can get from the pet store - these all splinter and break off in chunks that he can't digest, and they may cause a blockage). A KONG stuffed with peanut butter, especially frozen, is a great way to keep them occupied as well.
As far as exercise goes, take him swimming at lakes and beaches as much as possible and play lots of ball. Better yet, throw the ball into the water to wear him out physically and mentally. Play groups with other dogs his age will help as well. Give him a "job" like volunteering in an animal-assisted therapy class (he won't be the only hyper puppy!) or earning his Canine Good Citizen certificate. Avoid taking him on controlled runs. A pup his age, especially a large breed prone to joint issues, shouldn't be going on long runs. Try to keep him off had surfaces like pavement for now, too; grass is much easier on their joints. It's recommended to hold off on letting a GSD go on long runs until they're 18 months old.
This is just my advice. All my experience has been with GSD mixes (including a GSD/wolf mix, which was tough)... so you should take what I say with a grain of salt. I'm an experienced dog "guardian," but I haven't had a purebred GSD before, just rescues.
When you walk him is there any running, chasing balls, or jumping jumps along the way. By jumps I mean fallen logs etc. He needs some excitement to wear him out I think. At that young age lots of energy is needed to match his. You might consider setting up some short jumps - 16 inches at the most. It uses up a lot of energy to do the jumps right. I also set up cones for weaving and other interesting things like a tunnel to run through. I also run laps around the back yard stopping and turning suddenly with Raina heeling at my side. She loves that part, especially the part where I turn suddenly and switch directions. We both get a work out so I get my cardio and she gets her excitement.
My golden was like this when he was younger and up to about a month ago(he just turned a year at the end of May). I did obedience training with him continually for 9 months. He was just very high energy. As of last week he is no longer in his crate and he got his CGC today. He is a completely different dog and people can't believe he is just over a year and so calm and well behaved. He was more work then both GSD's put together. If you aren't in training classes I suggest you start and keep going, eventually it clicks.
He's been through one training class (6 weeks) and is slated for another on later this month. I was thinking about getting him some one on one training in the meantime to help out. I guess I need to up his exercise as well as the walks might not be enough from I'm reading.
Everyone has givin you some awesome advice, yes you can up his exercise level, buy him a game, get him a flirt pole..fill a kong with PB and let Dillon go nuts with it. They little minds and bodies need to be engaged alot lol, he sounds like a little trouble maker :)

Service Bulletin 73 - Garmin Autopilot in GlaStar and Sportsman
Glasair Aviation issued Service Bulletin 73: Subject: Garmin Autopilot cable ball position and cable routing. Applicability: All Sportsman and GlaStar Aircraft equipped with Garmin GSA 28 Autopilot Servos. Compliance time: Before next flight. Download link: http://glasairaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/GSSB73.pdf See Phil Martineau's post about the jammed cable he experienced.
Two of our members won awards in the Kit category at AirVenture Oshkosh 2016: Howard Plevyak won the Bronze Lindy Cahampion for his GlaStar, and Todd Richmond was awarded the Outstanding Workmanship plaque for his Sportsman. Congratulations to both!
"Powering Your Plane" by our very own Dave Prizio is a new book that will help readers correctly install a Lycoming-type engine. It covers each step of the engine installation process, including selecting an engine for your project, firewall construction, plumbing, electrical, preparing for your first engine start, and more. By focusing just on Lycoming and similar engines, such as those by Superior and Continental ECi, the author is able to go into great detail about the types of engine installations that most builders use.Prizio's book has numerous illustrations and photos to help builders maneuver through the challenges and intricacies of engine installation. EAA member Dick Koehler, a Tony Bingelis Award winner for his contributions to the homebuilding community, assisted with the technical editing.Prizio is an experienced aircraft builder, an FAA DAR, and member of EAA's Homebuilt Aircraft Council. His book builds on EAA's easy-to-follow guides written by the late Tony Bingelis 30 years ago, which became the definitive how-to manuals for aircraft building and are still available through EAA.
"Tony Bingelis guided me and inspired me with his writing as I began my first airplane building project more than 25 years ago," Prizio said. "The desire is to work with EAA to build on his wonderful work and update the knowledge and skills needed to safely and successfully complete an airplane.""EAA has long been the leader for information specifically for those who build and restore aircraft, going back to our founder Paul Poberezny, who set the standard more than 60 years ago," said Charlie Becker, EAA's director of chapters, communities, and homebuilt community manager. "This latest publication adds to the long tradition of EAA members helping members by sharing knowledge and information to promote safe and fun flying."The spiral-bound book is available through EAA's online store and is priced at $28.98, with a $5.00 discount for EAA members. It ships for free through April 30. It can also be found at the EAA AirVenture Museum gift shop in Oshkosh.
On March 29 Glasair Aviation of Arlington, Washington, received FAA certification of its much-anticipated Merlin Light Sport Aircraft (LSA).
For nearly 40 years Glasair Aviation has been a world leader in the manufacture of high-end, composite kitplanes, first with its Glasair-series of high-performance low-wing aircraft in the 1980s and later with its high-utility, high-wing GlaStar and Sportsman models. Merlin LSA certification marks Glasair Aviation's first entry into turnkey airplane production. (The Merlin LSA will not be sold as a kit.) The company will target pilots whose desire is to buy-and-fly an affordable, comfortable, all-composite aircraft perfect for recreational flying. Glasair Aviation also anticipates sales to training centers intent on upgrading to aircraft with excellent handling characteristics and the latest instrumentation. Sales will be through regional aircraft dealerships. (Operators interested in establishing dealerships should contact Glasair Aviation directly.) The Merlin LSA will be an entirely U.S.-made aircraft. Further Merlin LSA production is underway with the first customer deliveries expected in third quarter this year.

E-Mini Buying and selling: Let's Start out at the Beginning Without any Buzz
It isn't strange for me to peruse outstanding (plus some not so distinguished) e-mini buying and selling education and learning sites and see what's remaining promoted and exactly how it is being promoted. Quite often, I discover the guarantees and assures espoused on these web-sites appalling. On the flip side, you will find a few teaching educators who feel trustworthy and reasonable from the method through which they portray e-mini trading. That becoming said, quite a few of the web pages endorse e-mini buying and selling as anything akin to the California gold hurry. It can be not uncommon to check out e-mini investing portrayed as being a strategy to "get prosperous quick" having a small volume of work. http://www.jablowsmeats.com/the-orion-code-review-scam-or-real-deal/
With the report: E-mini buying and selling is just not a get wealthy swift plan and normally takes a considerable volume of effort and the perfect time to turn out to be proficient and worthwhile. Further, if somebody believes she or he can study an e-book or two and then slay the marketplaces they're hopelessly mistaken. In this article, I'd personally love to existing an exact portrayal of what e-mini trading "is," and what e-mini buying and selling "is not." Some may well locate my description of your route to e-mini buying and selling achievement challenging and be terribly let down. That's all right with me for the reason that every single prospective new trader must have a transparent idea of this substantial levels of competition arena they're thinking of for the job.
Let us get started by using a distinct idea of what e-mini trading is not really:
E-mini trading will not be a "get loaded quick" career. The stark truth is usually that virtually all folks who embark on the career in trading eliminate some or all of their dollars.
You can find very number of individuals who are "natural" traders. The vast majority of recent traders will see numerous with the ideas in e-mini investing unnatural and bewildering. It requires time and working experience to be a consistently lucrative e-mini trader.
Most investing publications or manuals current a particular process for a new trader to review. The method method of trading is fraught with danger. These devices may work pretty perfectly beneath certain market ailments, however the current market is really a creature of numerous moods and really couple of systems get the job done perfectly in all market scenarios. The overwhelming majority of mechanical e-mini buying and selling techniques are unsuccessful miserably in non-trending or consolidating marketplaces.
Most constantly financially rewarding traders are very disciplined of their approach to the market and also have produced their investing type and self-discipline through decades of examine and encounter.
1 common characteristic I see on several investing web pages can be a quotation that suggests you needs to be able to double your account benefit with a monthly foundation. Some sites even propose that you may gain even more than double your account benefit on the every month foundation. It's actually not uncommon to find out headlines on these web pages declare returns ranging from 300% to infinity.

Position: QB
School: Golden Gate High School Naples, FL
Measurables: 6'2 210
40 Time: 4.6
Bench Press: 310 lbs
Squat: 430 lbs
Grades: 3.4 core/19 ACT
Interesting Fact: Father Kenneth Sr played for Bo Schembechler at the University of Michigan
Career Stats: Kenneth passed for more than 4000 yards and rushed for just under the 1000 yards in his career at Golden Gate.
Schools In The Mix: Navy,Florida International,UCF , Middle Tennessee, Bowling Green, North Carolina State, Georgia Southern, Ball State, Indiana, South Alabama and Purdue.
"Navy is recruiting me the hardest. They have offered me and I just had a great in home visit with them. I will most likely be taking my official visit with them the first week of January and may decide after that visit. At this point I am still wide open and willing to listen to any school that wants to talk to me"
Closer look:
Kenneth is a well put together quarterback. At 6'2 210 pounds he has more than ideal size to play the position. Mouton would be considered a pass first guy with the ability to run.
Mouton has a strong arm but also shows very good touch on intermediate routes as well.
Kenneth runs right around the 4.6 range and is a very strong and powerful guy that prefers to run defenders over rather than make them miss. With that being said he does have the ability to be elusive when needed.
Mouton is a great athlete that can play in multiple types of offenses, not only because of skill set but due to the fact he is a very smart and coachable football player.
****SunStateFootball has done several features showcasing Mouton's passing abilities. Here is a closer look at what he brings to the table as a runner.****

Kate Pattison meets Annie Nangwirir, an orphan who is able to take care of her brother and sister in part thanks to the goat they received from Oxfam.
Fifteen-year-old Annie Nangwirir has taken care of her eight-year-old sister Agnes since they were orphaned four years ago. Agnes never misses school and is top of her class (out of 70 children).
"It was important to my parents that we all went to school," says Annie. "We wouldn't miss school when they were around. My brother Edison wants to be an accountant and Agnes is top of her class. They are both quite motivated people they wouldn't want to miss school, they like it.
"This year I sold a goat to pay for my school fees; I have already paid for two terms. I have also bought enough school uniforms for all of us. I will have to see what happens for the school fees for next term, maybe I will have to sell some maize."
The Oxfam-funded goat distribution programme in Malawi started in 2005. Since then more than 3,000 families have received a goat and their lives have begun to change for the better. It's a simple initiative that aims to ensure that people have enough food all year round, particularly during the dry season or hungry months - when personal maize harvests have run out and the earth is dry so nothing can grow without irrigation.
A goat is a valuable asset to a vulnerable household; it breeds easily and can produce up to six kids a year. Offspring can be sold to help families cope or kept to produce manure, which will improve subsequent harvests. Ideally, within a year, each family will be able to choose to do both: using manure to increase their maize and vegetable harvests so they can produce a surplus to sell; and selling goats to improve their homes or pay for school fees.

2/25/2013 UPDATE: ECU reset FTW! Yesterday was sunny and beautiful so I took the Truck Named Sue out for an ECU reset. Unhooked the negative cable for 40 min while enjoying an excellent cigar with a buddy, then we reconnected and took it for a 60MPH drive south down I65 out of Nashville. Never broke 2000RPM and drove out 30 miles then right back doing same. All in all, I drove it 60 miles doing 60MPH and the truck computer was estimating my mileage at 22.2 MPG!
I know these things are often way off and will measure the next few tanks manually as normal, but man oh man, that was a number I've NEVER seen on the Xterra. EVen if the real mileage is ANYWHERE close to that, I'll be one happy freakin camper!
If this holds through March, I'll order my Shrocks at the end of the month!

Hello there guys!
We have quite a situation here and we want to hear your opinion about it.
For the last three months we were creating a new WordPress theme for restaurants (http://restaurant.demo.proteusthemes.com/). Two weeks ago we uploaded it and we got two soft rejections with the reason that theme is too similar to this one (Carpress – http://www.proteusthemes.com/themes/?theme=carpress-wp ) and that was it. We were not even close to get any useful direction on what should we change or do.
I must say we used Carpress theme as a foundation but in restaurant theme we changed almost entire .css file, changed style, size and position of almost all elements and added lots of new features (advanced plugin implementation, page builder, more options in live WP cutomizer etc.). No need to say that the code is entirely new, using new/better/different approaches.
It was quite an unpleasant surprise for us mostly because TF reviewers every day accept more than dozen single-page portfolios or Avada-like themes which all look the same. We saw a lot of authors just changing the colors and position of elements and having another "unique" theme accepted, but we wouldn't dare to do so as the customers are lost then in the ocean of the same themes with different content.
We don't want to criticise the reviewers as much as we want to get second opinion from other authors and staff members. Do you think this is fair, what do you think we should do in this case?
In the worst case scenario we could sell Restaurant theme on our own sales channels or make it free for the matter of promotion. But first we want to know what could we do to get our hard work approved on the ThemeForest?
Thank you all for help, Kind Regards, ProteusThemes
Once I remember got a rejection message, that is totally not for my theme. I did asked reviewer like: "are you sure this message belongs to me?" ... I didn't uploaded nothing. Just message directly to reviewer via Item Edit. Got an answer smth like: "Oppps. Sorry! Approved." .
Reviewers got so much work to do, so it's worth to try, they are not robots, so most likely it's made by mistake. Your theme is totally different and it's even more modern. So it should be approved
Hi mate, yes this is bound to happen, all i can suggest make some unique improvements and it will go trough. We all went trough that. And are you sure this is a soft reject since in majority of cases design rejections on note of uniqueness is in most cases hard reject.
I think they are some software to check with any matching code. Previously I got a rejection with a link to a website that is using my template.
Its great if any reviewer can confirm this. Because I'm sure they cannot find a random website manually.
But in your case, I think the class names, ID & structure may be same. They are looking through code not design.
Why this should be an issue, if the code is similar, this is your code and this should be ok ? This new theme is for different category of customers…
Thank you everyone! I see I am not the only who thinks this is a little bit odd.
@pixeful: I am quite sure it is not a mistake, since we got 2 soft rejections and in the first one they actually created some screenshots which elements are too similar in both themes and should be fixed. Then we fixed all of them and provided detailed explanation what we changed and why. The second response was then just 'the items are still too similar'.
@Anps: yes, it is a soft reject, 2 times now already. The problem is that we already made all the changes to make it even more diverse. It doesn't make any sense to introduce some completely new elements or ruin the existing ones, just for the sake of uniqueness?
@surjithctly: backend/frontend code is entirely new, as we updated from Bootstrap 2 to 3, created new widgets or improved the existing ones, changed the filenames, dir structures, introduced Grunt build process etc.
@icesoft: yeah, I think the same :/
I don't know yet how we will solve this…
Some times you just have to give them what they want, i would remove or totally redesign the opening times since it is almost the same and redo footer, restyle it totally.
I ask if its soft reject because on notion of uniqueness its almost always a hard reject, of course if you have it in your hidden items then it is indeed a soft reject and one more reason why i ask because if its a hard reject then you will need quite a massive redesign to get it trough
Thank to all of you very much once again!
Today this item was finally accepted: http://themeforest.net/item/dining-restaurant-wordpress-theme-for-chefs/8294419
It is sometimes really stupid which changes we have to do, just to satisfy the reviewers, but that's just how it is as long as we sell on ThemeForest and not on our own channels
Anyway, we all agree that the final visual product is much better than it was when we submitted it for review the 1st time, so I hope that it was worth and everything will reflect well on sales.
I have actually One theme that's also the Soft Rejected about 1 month.
Rejection Issue is similiar to your another theme. But i will show you.
Uploaded one => http://themes.themewaves.com/mixing/
Reviewer said similiar to this one => http://themes.themewaves.com/rebound/
I have actually no idea how to solve this But the main important thing is We need to upload theme with must unique different Element or Different New Ideas?
I think Envato need to recheck review process. Sometimes too simple or not unique themes approved marketplace. I think my item is good enough. But they dont accept month
Just wanted to let you know that the "Share" button from the bradcrumbs bar isn't working.
best regards, Stefan

France's top administrative court has upheld a ban against a comedian for using anti-semitic jokes. The top court's decision came just hours before his opening night show in the western city of Nantes.
France's judges in the Council of State – the country's highest administrative court – issued a last-minute decision on Thursday evening which banned comedian Dieudonne M'bala M'bala (pictured) from performing on opening night. The ruling upheld a previous ban on the comic for racist remarks aimed at the Jewish population.
French Prime minister Jean-Marc Ayrault praised the decision, saying it reinforced "the government's position" to stamp out "anti-Semitic excesses."
Interior Minister Manuel Valls had appealed to the judges in the Council of State on Thursday evening to reverse the lower court decision from earlier that day which would have allowed the performance to go on. Valls called the court's ruling a "victory for the Republic."
The 46-year-old comedian has become known for critical remark of Jews, which he contends are anti-Zionist, but not anti-Semitic. Dieudonne also makes a downward Nazi salute, known as a "quenelle," as part of his act, which he contends is an anti-establishment gesture.
A recent online video, titled The Wall, features him urinating against a wall, later revealed to be the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem. Dieudonne was also filmed last month making a joke involving a Jewish radio journalist and Nazi gas chambers.
Dieudonne had been scheduled to perform in front of an audience of some 5,000 people in the western French city of Nantes on Thursday.
Hate speech?
Earlier in the day, a court in the French city of Nantes had cleared the way for Dieudonne to perform by suspending a local ban on his act.
The French government argued that racist remarks were not protected under the freedom of speech. However, Nantes Judge Francois Molla ruled that Dieudonne was not engaging in hate speech.
"The essential aim of the show cannot be considered as being an attempt to violate human dignity," Nantes Judge Francois Molla said Thursday
Multiple fines already levied against Dieudonne already come to roughly 65,290 euros ($88,500).
An attack on a Jewish school in Toulouse in March 2012 raised fears in France of a rise in anti-semitic sympathies. Nevertheless, some French officials – including former French Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux – have criticized legal action against Dieudonne as pushing his racist views into the spotlight.

About Group
No activity in last 7 days
Group Description
If Business,Technology,Management and the associated "Jazz" interests you then you have come to the right place.
Our vision for JIGYASA is for it to become the MECCA for Business & Technology Buffs.
Jigyasa was started in July 1999 by Vijay Thomas(V.T.)and Munjal Dave at Satyam Renaissance Consulting (SATREN)- the erstwhile Management Consulting division of Satyam Computer Services Ltd at Chennai, India. That seems such a long time ago and now all the initial group is dispersed - Munjal is in Chicago, Susmita in California, Radhika in London and your truly is now in Toronto Canada.
The Idea to start Jigyasa occurred to me one morning when we were having a general discussion about life and cribbing about work. We were at our chummery dreading the fact that we had to go back to work after a weekend. I guess its called the OGIM ( O' God its Monday )syndrome.
The name Jigyasa was suggested by Susmita who said that 'Jigyasa' in sanskrit meant inquisitiveness. ( this is what she told us).
In Chennai the Jigyasa team went on to conduct a few Business Quizzes like the MMA ( Madras Management Association) Business Quiz and also participated in most of the quizzes happening around 1999/2000. Nowadays we no longer have a "Brick and Mortar" presence but we have more members and our quizzes go all over the world.
All Jigyasa members are part of an intelligent and contemporary Business Community where being part of Jigyasa , we ensure will be an added tool in their arsenal.
Looking forward to your continued support to make this group a forerunner in Business & Technology Quizzing, Management Concepts et.al
Vijay Thomas ( Founder)
The Jigyasa core team is
Sudip Kumar Roy, Gunaseelan Radhakrishnan, Surjith Singh & Vijay Thomas

TitleYeah Yeah Yeahs to headline PIQNIQ festival
Mon Apr 29 2013
Photograph: Dan Martensen/K.K. Barrett
I know what you're thinking: Man, I wish Chicago had more music festivals. Fret not! Radio station Q87.7, in the mold of KROQ's Weenie Roast, is launching its first PIQNIQ at First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre on June 29.
And there's good reason to head out to Tinley Park: It's the only local appearance of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, as the trio tours its wonderful new album, Mosquito. Well, unless you count Summerfest in Milwaukee.
Also on tap: Bush (Remember them? If you watch a lot of Blackhawks games, of course you do) and AWOLNATION (You've heard that one song in a commercial, promise. A Marine-like dude shouting "SAIL!" over a dubstep beat). Silversun Pickups, Cold War Kids, Atlas Genius and more fill out the bill.
Oh, and, kids, Q87.7 is a radio station on the FM dial. Ask your parents what that means.

Errand Girl Ashley Tisdale: Minidress Darling
Posted Thursday November 8, 2012 6:40 PM GMT
Absorbed in her cell phone, Ashley Tisdale ran some errands in Los Angeles on Thursday (November 8).
The "High School Musical" star looked stylish in a reddish minidress with silver on the bust, a gray jacket, leopard print bag, dark knee-high stockings, and black boots.
On Thursday afternoon, the 27-year-old tweeted, "Meetings @BlondieGirlProd. Busy day!!"
Soon, you can see Ashley in the upcoming holiday film, "Holly, Jingles and Clyde 3D," about two elves who join forces with Santa's daughter to help a family in Michigan save their Christmas tree farm.
Enjoy the pictures of Ashley Tisdale out in Los Angeles (November 8).

ModBargains | New Forgestar F14 Wheels
Hey Fanatics,
ModBargains.com would like to proudly introduce a brand new wheel from Forgestar: The Brand-new F14. This brand new lineup utilizes a combination of the best methods of forging and casting methods both in the same wheel. This is called Flow Form Casting, and is used by companies such as BBS and Enkei. During Flow Forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged wheel. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel. These wheels are made to order and can be made to fit your BMW with a large range of offsets.
Weight specs:
19x8.5 Approx weight 22.5 lbs
19x 9 approx weight 24.1 lbs
19x10 approx weight 24.7 lbs
They come in four available finishes: Hyper Silver, Gunmetal, Gloss Black, and Matte Black.
Available Offsets
19x8.5 offsets from +26 to +46
19x9.0 offsets from +20 to + 50
19x10 offsets from +20 to +45
19x11 offsets from +33 to +55
All of this with only an 8-10 day turn around time and only $1499 + shipping per set!

I've been depending on the default calendar on my Samsung Captivate Android phone for appointments. Recently it had a problem and I had to get it replaced and lost all my appointment information.
Is there a way to set it up so the appointments are saved to my memory chip or another appointment app that I can download and use that will be on the memory chip just in case have to change phones again?
Thanks in advance.

well im back home.
my temp went down sat night so dad pickked me up from the vets, which im quite glad about as i didnt really want to spend the night there.
i got home and mum and dad were very very loving and fussy, they were beggining to annoy me really, but i made the most of it!
after a while tho i started to feel quite ill again, i went all quiet and stayed lying down, i didnt close my eyes or anything, i just lay down, eyes open with tears running down my face, i was just fed of and sad about feeling ill i guess.
dad had been told by the vet that it was essential that i kept my temp down, otherwise we might loose me, so at noticing my tears mum and dad turned off the ehating and opended the windows!
they both had to put more clothes on, it was so cold for them, i could see thier breath!!!
i felt better tho, it helped keep me cool and safe.
the morning came and i could tell they were FREEZING, but i felt fantastic, i greeted mum the usual way by pouncing on her when she gets up to go the loo and pulling the toilet roll off her. shes normally angry when i do that, but that day she was really happy as she new i was well!
iv felt great sinve. today i helped put the double glazing in. i say helped, i just ran around like an idiot, most likely getting in the way!!!
had another visit to the vets, she got that bloomin thermometer out again, dam thing. my temps still a lkittle high, but hopefully when iv finished the course of tablets mum force feeds me, and the drops (she thinks i dont no) she puts in my food im sure i will be fighting fit again!
ill keep you posted on how im feeling, ad thank you to everyone who wished me well.
the past few days iv not been myself. tuesday last week i had the snip but iv been fine. then the past couple of days iv not really been hungry. all i do is sleep. normaly i follow my mum and dad round like a shadow, all they have to do is look at me and i start purring. but if they stroke me i just look the other way. this morning mummy picked me up for a cuddle and i started crying, i never EVER do that. so she called the vets and explained. they wanted to see me asap. so dad took me, as mum was at work. they stuck that blooming stick up my bum again, and it said my temp was 107! she hooked me up on a drip and im staying at the vets now.
iv no idea whats wrong with me. i hope i get to see mum again.
mums just found out that my temp should be around 101, and even a couple of degrees change could kill me, mine went up 6 degrees!!!! im so lucky mum & dad got me to the vets in time, otherwise i probably wouldnt be alive now.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Yes this is correct. Being non recourse loan, this would be the preferred manner of reporting.
Here is a link for your reference
see example 5 step II
Step 2
So no schedule D and no form 982?
Yes, that is correct. Since there is no taxable gain, no Sch D is required.
Also, you do no have cancellation of debt income and so no exclusion on Form 982 is required
You will report the sale on the Worksheet and you can include a note stating that this was a non recourse loan.
I don't like the fact that the 1099A has box 5 marked "yes" saying that I am personally liable for repaying the debt. Will that send a red flag to the IRS?
You can include a note that this is a non-recouse loan. Alternatively, you can ask the lender to amend the Form and issue it to you.
Thank you very much!

This hand hooked Santa style Christmas stocking is of the utmost quality. With such dedication put into it so that the detail is of the finest quality there is nothing that this stocking is missing, except a stunning place to hang it. It features a picturesque red and green striped cuff and the interior lining is a beautiful cotton blend printed fabric that you can stuff full of toys or candies for your loved ones. There are a set of the hand hooked stockings so you could make a matching set of the Christmas tree. Santa and Nutcracker that would look exquisite in any home.
Orders for Personalized Christmas Stockings placed today by 2 PM
Materials: Cotton, wool and polyester blend hooked Christmas stockings.
Measurements: This hand hooked stocking measures 21" long along the diagonal from the top of the cuff to the toe; and the width across the cuff is 7".
Personalized: Names can be personalized on the cuff. Because of the design of this Christmas stocking, we will make the embroidery monogram on the cuff to a maximum width of 4" so it would fit into an overall stocking design.
Lining: This stocking is fully lined inside. High end heirloom quality.
What if I need more of these Christmas stockings in the future years? We have been bringing this Christmas stocking to our inventory since 2012 and the likelyhood of our keeping this personalized Christmas stocking or a similar one in stock next season is relatively good but contingent on the availability of this specific Christmas stocking design in the manufacturing facility. Read more info on matching your Christmas stockings as your family grows. You may want to purchase extra blanks without personalizing, we will always personalize these for you later at no extra cost.
The personalizing option includes:
Each name is machine embroidered with the first letter in upper case and the remaining letters in lower case.
For group orders of 2 or more stockings, we will do our best to adjust the font size of the letters so the monogrammed letters are uniform in size. For example, if your order has the names Mom, Dad and Christopher, we will embroider the longest name first and then adjust the font size of the shorter names to match the font size of the longest name, otherwise the shorter names will appear to be disproportionately large. If you want the largest letters available monogrammed on the cuff, please specify SHORT versions of names, such as Mom/Dad/Chris instead of Mom/Dad/Christopher.

For those of us born in the first world, the myriad inherent privileges are so commonplace that we rarely give them a second thought, and it is only when we are reminded that others do not share the same liberties can we truly fathom just how lucky we are. Danielle Saleh is one such person who is prompting the message with her newfound business, Water for Water, which sells bottled water within Australia in an effort to provide clean water to those who do not have it so freely. As 100% of the business's profits go towards facilitating pure drinking water in Calacoon City, Philippines, people who drink Water for Water can consciously help those less fortunate attain one of their fundamental human rights while unconsciously exercising their own.
As Danielle puts it, this is not just about corporate social responsibility – providing clean water to the third world is the fundamental reason why Water for Water exists, and is the heart and soul of its business. Currently stocked in Gloria Jeans (with the view to expand to additional distributors in the very near future), Danielle explains that the business's design is to allow people to make a difference in a relatively fuss-free way – after all, "bottled water is always going to be purchased, so why not attach a cause to it?" In turn, people have an opportunity to help others without going out of their way to do so.
While people purchasing the water may not be going out of their way, Danielle and her business certainly are. After she finished traveling the world filming a social justice documentary last year, Danielle's eyes were opened to precisely the sentiment mentioned earlier – and she arrived home with a staunch determination to help organise a change however she could. And so six months ago, Water for Water came to fruition, born out of a desire to improve the situation for the 40% of Filipinos who have limited or no access to clean water.
"There is so much need for clean water in Asia, and in the Philippines, water and sewage is on the same level, so they cannot dig a well," she explains. "As a result, the leading causes of deaths and illness in the Philippines are food and waterborne diseases such as bacterial diarrhea, hepatitis A and typhoid fever."
The only way to obtain clean water is via a purification centre, which is exactly what Water for Water is investing in. As it is part of the Filipino culture to pay for water, Danielle's business is setting up a community centre which will receive all the money, thereby ensuring each dollar spent on water goes back into the community. Plans for the centre include medical services, a library and a children's area.
"We are taking a holistic approach – instead of being a charity, we are building services," says Danielle. "It's all about integrating Water for Water with the community there as well as over here by getting people involved."
Locally, Water for Water has ensured it's kept to its moral premise by sourcing water from a sustainable spring and aligning with a proven and a reliable social pioneer, David Bussau, whose foundation is responsible for enacting Water for Water's objectives within the Philippines. "Based on David's experience, we know what we are aiming to do is a proven model that has worked," Danielle describes of the decision to work with David on Water for Water. The business's current goal is to get the message out there as much as possible so more people can get involved and understand what the business is trying to do. Artist Beastman has gotten on board with the cause by choosing Water for Water as his beneficiary in aMBUSH Gallery's upcoming charity Keg Show, and Danielle has even tapped into her creative side with the project by ensuring the packaging is as appealing to customers as possible. As she explains, it is all about building loyalty to the brand – and it's one whose ambitions are far beyond the business itself.
Water for Water can be found at any Gloria Jeans coffee shop, and you can keep up to date on its progress via its blog.

Mark Barwell, 27, who suffers from cystic fibrosis and requires special apparatus to help him breathe, was told he could not travel two or three stops on the 211 bus to the Royal Brompton as the driver did not have change.
Mr Barwell, who works at a factory and volunteers as an Explorer Scout leader, went for a walk up King's Road in Chelsea on Monday after he was told he could go out by doctors at the hospital, where he is being treated as an in-patient.
At about 1.30pm when he decided to head back, Mr Barwell, from Woking, Surrey, started to feel weak. But when he tried to catch a bus he was told he could not get on — even though his breathing apparatus was clearly visible — as he did not have the exact change or a topped up Oyster card.
He said: "I was annoyed and I didn't really have the energy to stand there arguing with him so I just got off the bus and walked back. I had a couple of tubes up my nose that go up the side of my face, it was pretty obvious."
Transport for London today apologised. Mike Weston, operations director for London Buses, said: "We are extremely sorry to hear about the problems reported by Mark Barwell. We are awaiting the results of an urgent investigation by Abellio, which operates the route.
"Bus drivers are trained to assist vulnerable passengers, and if this training has not been followed the necessary action will be taken."
