I started graphic design before I naturally orient towards photography. I bought my first SLR camera three years ago. Since then, I shoot as much as I can. This is my brother, photographer for over 25 years, which tells me a lot of things. I also learn by interacting with other photographers. I hope you enjoy my photos.Dec 11th, 2011

I am a self taught photomanipulator and have come a long ways in the last couple of years since I first discovered Photoshop. My works have been used on book covers and CD covers and many websites. My stock photos have been used around the world which can be found on my Deviantart account. I love learning new techniques and just got my upgrade to Adobe Photoshop CS6 so I am playing around with that. I love day trips with my hubby of 30 years to do my stock photography. I am a avid shooter (Nikon D90 & Nikon D700) and love finding Great Stocks for people to use. You can find me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/fairiegoodmotherSep 6th, 2012

Parental Rights in EducationThe ACLJ fights to protect parents' constitutional right to direct the moral and educational upbringing of their children. Because so many parents do not have any option other than to send their children to the public schools, it is critical that parents know and understand their constitutional rights regarding public education.
The Supreme Court has time and again affirmed the well established principle that parents possess a right to control the upbringing of their children: "The custody, care and nurture of the child resides first in the parents, whose primary function and freedom include preparation for obligations the state can neither supply nor hinder." Prince v. Massachusetts, 321 U.S. 158, 166 (1944). This fundamental liberty interest of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children has been reaffirmed by the Supreme Court twice in just the last fifteen years. See Washington v. Glucksberg, 521 U.S. 702 (1997); Troxel v. Granville, 530 U.S. 57 (2000). The general notion of parental rights is rooted in the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. However, a number of additional constitutional as well as statutory provisions lend further support to parental rights in general, and a parent's right to opt his or her child out of objectionable classroom activities in particular.
In 1978, Congress enacted the Protection of Pupil Rights Act ("PPRA"), The PPRA permits parents to inspect classroom materials and requires parental consent before psychiatric or psychological testing or treatment can be administered to students. This Act provides only limited protection, however, because it only applies to programs funded by the U.S. Department of Education. Several states have passed "opt-out" statutes that protect a parent's right to protect their child from objectionable content found in sex or health education courses. See, e.g., N.Y. Educ. Law § 3204(5) (McKinney 1992)(permitting religiously motivated parents to have their children excused from "the study of health and hygiene"); N.J. Ann. Stat. § 18A: 35-4.7 (West 1989)(same); Cal. Educ. Code § 51240 (West 1996) (same). But, not all states have such protections, and "opt-out" laws vary from state to state.
A parent's right to remove a child from objectionable classroom instruction and activity is grounded in three constitutional provisions: the Fourteenth Amendment Due Process Clause and the First Amendment Free Speech and Free Exercise Clauses. Which provision offers the strongest support for a parental challenge will vary slightly depending on the particular scenario. The potential scenarios faced by Christian parents typically fall into two basic categories—those that involve some degree of student coercion, and those that involve mere "exposure" to objectionable or offensive ideas. An example of the first scenario would be a school curriculum requiring students to participate in mock homosexual wedding ceremonies. Such an activity can be challenged on First Amendment free speech grounds because such a compulsory ritual forces children to endorse speech to which they are morally opposed. Although some lower courts have been unreceptive to recent parental challenges to school curricula, the constitutional underpinnings of parental rights in this area are well established. The First Amendment Free Speech and Free Exercise Clauses, combined with the Fourteenth Amendment's fundamental liberty interest of parents to direct the education and upbringing of their children, form a strong foundation upon which parents can assert their right to opt their children out of objectionable school material or activities. The higher the degree of coercion on students to participate in, or otherwise endorse the classroom activity, the stronger the constitutional argument in favor of a parental opt-out right.
By contrast, a situation involving mere exposure to offensive materials would be better challenged by initiating and maintaining an open dialogue with school administrators on this issue. Parents can serve as a grassroots catalyst for educational reform and should also consider running for school board and becoming involved in school policy decision making. In taking such affirmative steps at the local level, parents can influence school curriculum and encourage the adoption of opt-out policies.
For information on laws regarding parental rights related to home schooling, visit http://www.hslda.org/laws/default.asp.
- Are there any legal resources available to help a parent confront a teacher who is requiring a student to participate in yoga and meditation?
- Can I read a short Bible story to my son's third grade class during a parents' reading time?
- Is it legal for the sponsors of a city basketball league to require students to attend a seminar, unrelated to basketball, and then forbid parents from attending with their children?
- Is it legal to have security cameras in schools without parental consent?
The answer to your second question is yes, there are legal resources available. Here, you Basically have a teacher teaching not about religion, but actually engaging in an exercise of religion and requiring class participation. At a minimum, she should not require participation, because yoga is a religious exercise, and you're not allowed to require the practice of religious exercises in public schools. Of course, if a teacher wore a cross to school, the ACLU and others would be making a case about it. But here, you've got a religious exercise going on in the school. Student participation is required, and it should not be. I think you need to go speak with the teacher. Do it in a polite way, but explain that you don't want your daughter involved in the religious exercises here. The school's not supposed to be doing this. They can certainly teach about religion-that is, the religious beliefs held by people of different faiths. But to have them actually practice it is a different issue. And the school is incorrect to allow it. I would explain to the teacher that this is not something the school had the right to do. It was a mistake, and your daughter-and any others in the class who didn't want to participate- should not be required to participate. And this type of teaching should really not be done in the class that way.
Here's what I would do: I would tell them that you're coming in for the reading time, and that you're going to read a story from the Bible. That's usually not a problem. There are some school districts that may object, but religious books or Bible stories are not to be treated as if they're pornographic in nature and can't be read in a public school classroom. Now, it may need to be the student's choice. There are actually Department of Education guidelines on this that are quite helpful. For example, in one situation, we received a call from a woman whose granddaughter - also in the third grade - was in effect "censored" by her teacher. The teacher had invited the students to bring in a video from home that they could watch together in class, and when the girl brought in a VeggieTales video, the teacher wouldn't allow it. The same law that applied in that case also applies here: the public school is not a religious free zone. So the first thing to do is to tell the school officials what you are going to do - that you're going to read a nice Bible story. Tell them that it will be quick, and within the guidelines of whatever the school says, but tell them you're doing this so that they're not caught unaware or surprised.
I can't believe in this day and time, especially in light of everything that's happening in our culture, that they wouldn't allow parents to attend. Parents have legitimate concerns for the safety and well-being of their children, and the idea that there would be a roadblock put in the way so that parents cannot simply be there as a support for their own children is truly tragic. I think they've got it wrong. This is a complete violation, in my view, of parental rights and parental authority. You're not checking these kids' safety at the door of the gym when they go in there; you still are their parent, and you have a say-so in the situation. I think where you're concerned for the safety of your children, the first thing to do is talk to the individuals directly involved - and in this case that would be the coaches in the basketball league. Then take the next step if necessary - go to the facility management and ask, "Why are you allowing this to happen?" I think you're going to get it resolved that way; I can't imagine the city league wanting to take the legal responsibility for the well being of these children. I think that would truly be a dangerous thing to do. So, they've simply got it wrong here, and we just need to get it corrected.
The school should have at least notified the parents that they were filming as an added security measure. The cameras are in place strictly for one reason-security. The school and the government both have what's called a compelling interest in protecting the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens and that would include students, even in a private school. Now, the private school is not mandated to provide this kind of security, but they can do it legally as a security measure. Because of the difficulties that schools have had over the last several years-with the shootings at Columbine and other schools-the schools are increasing their security measures. Having said that, the school should still notify the parents. The reality is, we're seeing new security measures are going in all over Washington: near the monuments; near the main streets; on Pennsylvania Avenue. We have to have more security given the nature of the threat the country is currently under. These new security laws do not violate anyone's civil liberties; they're constitutional, and they're working.

Prepare yourselves, patient readers! No Need for Bushido will be relaunching on August 15th, continuing the storyline right were we left off. So what's new on our agenda? Firstly, we've decided to address the biggest criticism with the webcomic, the slow, one-page-a-week update schedule. So our new update schedule will be EVERY MONDAY AND THURSDAY!! Not only that, but we'll be launching with a new website, including better functionality and mobile compatibility!
Being the comic creators, we'd prefer to suggest everyone give the archive a re-read to get caught up on the plot, but we're well aware most people don't have that sort of time. SO LEADING UP TO THE RELAUNCH, we'll be updating an eight page recap of the plot, starting on August 7th, with one recap page a day! (But feel free to read through the archive again for the more detailed refresher. It's still holds up alright, we promise!)
The direction the comic goes from this half way point in the story only escalates, with plenty more character plot threads overlapping and conflicts building to climactic battles. Prepare yourselves, it's going to be a fun ride and we're certainly excited to bring it to you!

MyungStal Shipper
Back in 2011, INFINITE members were asked about their ideal type on their fanmeeting. Myungsoo stated he was interested on "a 5-members-girl-group who recently won #1, she has long wavy hair & has pure/innocent image". And MyungStal shipper were like "ït's Krystal f(x)" or "omo it's definitely Krystal, MyungStal <3" etc. And I was like "WHUTT???". I mean… what he meant by '5-members-girl-group who recently won #1' could be f(x) (I can't think of other groups), but how could those shipper so sure the 'long wavy hair girl with pure/innocent image' is Krystal? Yes she does has long wavy hair, but pure/innocent image??? Krystal is known for her fierce, cold sometimes bitchy image. Since when she becomes innocent? How could she when she acts all mature & sexy? Just the thought of it already makes me laugh. When I first heard it (Myungsoo's ideal type), I automatically thought of Sulli. She's the visual maknae of f(x) because of her innocent looks. She looks younger & cuter than Krystal. Not to mention at that time (2011) she had longer black hair than Krystal, she looked like a doll!! I don't have anything against MyungStal shipper, you can ship whoever you want, but let's be realistic here. I know they ship MyungStal since they got paired up on Elite CF, but it doesn't mean Myungsoo had a crush on Krystal because of it. He could like another members in f(x) or even another female celebs. And I'm not saying he doesn't like Krystal at all, maybe right now he already changes his ideal type to Krystal or other female celebs. Who knows? Aren't most kpop artists like to change their ideal type from time to time? So yeah, what I wanna say is you can ship anyone BUT don't be blind enough to not accept the fact that your bias' ideal type isn't someone you ship him with OR your bias isn't the ideal type of someone you ship her with. If you get what I mean. Myungsoo could be talking about other girl groups though, but if he was indeed talking about f(x) then it was definitely Sulli he was talking about.
S!b : I don't have tumblr & 'some' MyungStal shipper won't agree with me.

COOK Report for September - October 2014
A Two Part Issue -The Netherlands eScience Center - Importance of Investment in Human Capital
and The Very Strange End of the FLOK in which Michel Bauwens Renigs on his Pledge of Full Disclosure
The September October 2014 COOK Report comes in two parts.
The first is a complete report on the first three years of operation of the Netherlands Center for Enhanced Science. This describes the use of the Netherlands Research and Education network infrastructure to give sophisticated assistance to subject mater or domain scientists via the assistance of eScience engineers and integrators whose new specialty consists of showing the domain scientists how to use newly created instruments to leverage the power of the resources at their command to take on and solve far more difficult problems than would otherwise be possible. A remarkable problem on Climate Change serves as the chief example.
The second Ecuador: the Very Strange End of the Flok is primarily a collection of source material detailing the transition of Michel Bauwens from his unseemly exit from Ecuador with Spanish hacker wolves braying at his heels to his landing back in Thailand and his securing of a Strategic partnership with CIC the most important Cooperative on the Iberian peninsula. The Partnership was announced in August 2 2014 the day after we published. The most deplorable part of the outcome was Michel's capitulation to his FLOK slanderers who were attacking presumably the very people whom he needed to work with at CIC. The problem is we don't know because his FLOK attackers have achieved a division within P2P of an inner circle who can be privy to what happened and the rest of us who are supposed to smile sweetly and thank Michel for his wreckless Ecuadorian venture and wish him better luck in Spain.
Welcome to the Cook Report on Internet Protocol
A Practical Navigator for the Internet Economy
We re now in our twenty third year of publication. (Our first issue was April 1992.) We publish 6 times a year - long in depth reports on subjects of intense personal intertest. Meanwhile our most important revenue producing operation is the offering of a private subscription only forum now in its eleventh year. The Forum is a mail list called the Architecture and Economics of IP Networks. It is a community of interest where more than 100 members discuss issues and trade ideas. I do not screen posts in advance. Foir more informatrion see the menu item "Business Model and Mail List Policy."
Some of the topics we explore:
- economic framework for thinking about technology
- fiber as economic infrastructure
- change from PSTN to all IP over fiber
- business models- domestic and global
- green IT, mobility, wireless
- new carrier models
- community fiber
- enterprise fiber & NRENs

Nursing in public is awesome. I always encourage moms to find a way to make themselves comfortable doing so, because it can make life sooo much easier for mom and it's best for baby.
However, there's a ton of controversy around it as well. Aside from the legal and social right to nurse in public comes another conundrum ... to use or not to use a nursing cover? Sadly, there are people on BOTH sides who have problems with it.
If you use one, you draw attention to the fact that you're nursing, which can earn you positive or negative looks, and can even make someone ask you to leave the location you're in (even if they're doing so illegally). Often moms newer to breastfeeding like nursing covers because newborns can sometimes take a little time to get latched on, and sometimes pop off a lot as well. So being able to work with them without having your breast exposed the whole time can be a point that makes or breaks a mom's willingness to nurse in public. However, there are some hardcore advocates who feel that even the SALE of breastfeeding covers perpetuates the idea that women need to hide to nurse and that women who choose to do so are "showing that they're ashamed of breastfeeding."
If you don't use one, more power to you! There are lots of ways to be discreet if you need/want to breastfeed without using a cover, and often it's easier than messing with a cover as well. It also draws a lot less attention to you. In warm areas, babies don't overheat this way, and there's even some concern about making babies re-breathe their own CO2 the whole time they're under a blanket. I have issues with things on my face; the idea of having a blanket on my head makes me feel like I can't breathe. As babies get older, they often see being covered as MORE of a distraction than not, or even as a game, as Code Name: Mama did a great job of showing in her video:
The bottom line is this:
If you want to use a nursing cover, do it. Try to find a lightweight one so your baby doesn't overheat, and also practice other ways to nurse discreetly in case your baby decides in the middle of a feeding that that blanket over their head is uncomfortable or annoying or is a form of playing Peek-A-Boo. Never tell another mother who chooses not to use one that she needs to use one, or try to push YOUR ideal level of comfort off as if it's somehow Miss Manner's new guideline. There are moms who would like to use covers but can't because their toddler fights it, and yes, telling women they MUST cover up IS oppressive.
If you don't want to use one, don't, but never tell another mother she's doing anything wrong if she chooses to use one. She draws MORE attention to the fact she's nursing by using one, so often the reason moms use them isn't because they're ashamed of the fact they're nursing, but often from personal modesty or shyness. It's no more polite to tell a woman she should stop using a cover than it would be to tell her she should wear a lower cut shirt -- it's none of your business. Just be glad she's nursing in the first place, and if you really feel the need, show her some other ways she can nurse discreetly, too.
Do you prefer to nurse with or without a cover?

I've nursed 4 kids so far. At the beginning with my first, I tried the blanket thing. By just a few months old, it was being flung on the floor by my daughter. Finally, I quit fighting with it and just ditched the blanket. It was way more discreet than a giggling game of peek a boo. With the next, I bought the giant nursing cover. She was an August baby. We both got soaked in sweat trying to use it. That lasted less than a week. After that, I have found that me and baby are more comfortable without a cover. In 4 kids and what seems like thousands of public nursings without a cover or blanket, I have had 2 negative comments. Number 5 will nurse cover free as well. It is just a better fit for us!
I agree, do what you feel comfortable doing, whether it's using a cover or not.
Agree, just nurse those babies, whichever way you choose, but nurse them! And maybe with the next kid, they won't use it.
I had a lightweight one that I used depending on the situation. I had winter babies, so it helped when we were out.
I prefer nursing without a cover, but I can only manage it discreetly with a couple of my shirts. I really should practice. :D
Thank you for this. =)
I use a cover in public and when non-family is over at the house. If it IS too hot, I find a place to do it where I'm comfortable. The covers I have are light weight and have an opening at the top that allows me to look at my daughter as she nurses. I'm pretty modest.

Offering most of what an enthusiast looks for in a digital SLR, the Canon 70D takes it a step further with excellent live view and movie mode autofocus. Good continuous shooting performance and Wi-Fi simply serve to sweeten the deal.
Good For
Almost any semi-pro shooting situation, from sports action to portraits, as well as video.
Not So Good For
Casual snapshooters on a budget; those who shoot neither live view nor video; photographers looking to travel light.
User Reviews
After a week of using....
So many things to like about this camera as well as dislikes. LIKE: 1) articulating LCD 2) brackets 7 shots up to +/- 3EV 3) lightweight vs my Mark III 4) Relatively inexpensive 5) Live screen focus - but... sometimes hit and miss 6) great looking jpegs - after tweaking tweaking tweaking (using a Canon 10-22 lens) 7) timer automatically brackets the 7 shots eliminating the need for a remote cable NOW THE DISLIKES: 1) no dedicated WB button 2) can't go more than 800 ISO without some noise ...
Renaming Filenames
an option to rename the standard IMG_xxxx.jpg in the 7D, i am surprised that this newer camera with massive menu items would not allow this feature too. It was particularly useful while I was shooting the recently-ended America's Cup, and made finding and archiving the resulting images much easier and easily located on searches.
Canon 70D user review
I just owned one Canon 70D ,let me decribe the disavantages of this camera. I dislike this camera's autofocus point indication by black square those are block the vision of view finder instead of conventional one those small dot and light up with red ,its very sharp, more comfortable during focusing. The camera didn't show full display for remaining shots which is only 3 digit shown , a large capacity SD card had only show (999) all the while and the remaining video recording time also not ...
Very happy so far.
I'm very pleased to have so much packed into one package. The camera is not too big or heavy yet shots sports like a heavier camera. Live view auto focus, the articulating touch screen and video performance from 18-135 STM lens are more appreciated than I expected them to be. I considered other systems, selling my EOS system gear for a new or different system, but an very pleased with sticking with conventional SLR system and all the great lens and flash options. Even a new buyer should ...

Questions & Answers
7D or 70D
Good Afternoon DPReview readers, Canon EOS 7d has recently dropped in price and is available now for a very good price in Japan. My question is would it still be a better buy than the latest 70d? I'm not really into video and I prefer the more rugged and weather sealed body of the 7d. Not a pixel peeper or high MP count fan either as I am upgrading from a 40d( I love the scroll wheel). My photographs are typical for a father with kids(10 and 13) who play sports(badminton, soccer, basketball). I think that the 7d still has a lot to offer even though it's a bit old given the pace of technological advancements in digital photography. not looking to change systems as I am heavily invested in Canon so I would appreciate your thoughts. One thing that's making me hesitate is that the 7d2 might come out and I would prefer to buy the 7d1 already knowing what the 7d2 is. Sorry for the scattered thoughts. thanks in advance for the comments. Pie
I have both cameras. I have not fondled them in a store and made a judgment. I have really used them both. I have been shooting Canon since EOS came out. To me it is a question of adaptation and end product. I can learn to use almost any camera. I take both of them with me. I use the 7D for my long lenses mostly and the 70D for mid range and wide lenses. I shoot very large swim meets with both. The pictures don't look much different. Swimming is dynamic and I believe I get more keepers from the 70D so I have come to use it more for this purpose than the 7D. I usually use single point center focus and have to deal with very poor light in indoor arenas. They are both quite good. I like the moving lcd screen and I just habitually fall into using my fingers on the touch screen. I shot swim meets successfully years before the 70D came out and would happily use the 7D if I didn't have it. I like to get tight on swimmers faces and being a swimmer myself I like to record the ... Continue Reading
If anything is bonkers it is your rabid insistence that the 70D is crap for everything, and the the 7D is the best camera for everything. I purchased the Canon 6D with the same 'shoddy' ergonomics and even worse AF system than the 70D, because the 7D just isn't the best choice for indoor sports. Had the 70D been available when I made my purchase I probably would have gone with it instead of the 6D. I'm about as far from a 7D basher as you can get. I still feel the 7D is the best camera for outdoor sports and wildlife photography. But, as a general use camera the 70D beats it hands down. Continue Reading
With all due respect Karl your fanboyism for the 7D Is bonkers. The 70D isn't as crippled as you make it out to be. You see, I have and use both and so can speak from experience. Mark Continue Reading
Panasonic FZ1000 or Canon 70D for Video?
The last 2 days I have been pretty much doing nothing but doing a research online on what camera to buy and this is what I have come to. 1. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000 2. Canon EOS 70D 18-135 IS STM KIT The price difference where I live is $200 with the Canon being more expensive. One is DSLR whereas the Panasonic is a bridge camera. From what I have read online the 70D has an amazing autofocus, but the overall image/video quality seems to be somewhat soft, which can be clearly seen when watching comparison videos between Panasonic GH3/GH4 and the Canon 70D. The FZ1000 can record in 1080P and even 4K (30fps), which is amazing knowing that it is also cheaper than the Canon. I also believe that the image quality on this camera is sharper and the autofocus works just as good if not better as on the Canon 70D. Now, I have my eyes on the Panasonic FZ1000 because after reading all the reviews it really seems like an amazing camera with a great price and useful features. On top of that, it ...
If all you're doing is putting a camera on a tripod and doing close-up shots like that, I think spending that much money on the FZ1000 or Canon 70D is overkill. The question really should be what's better than your ELPH camera. I would look at something like the Panasonic HC-V750 camcorder: http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-HC-V750K-Enhanced-Camcorder-3-0-Inch/dp/B00HPZKQJS/ref=sr_1_1?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1409581679&sr=1-1&keywords=Panasonic+HC-V750 If you plan on using the 70D or FZ1000 for other things such as still pics and/or want 4K, sure consider them. (Or if you have the money, I guess it doesn't really matter.) From your post it sounds like you only need something for your YouTube videos. I also mentioned in your other thread that you can record the screen activity on your phone and inter-cut with the camera video: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ms.screencast Continue Reading
Very good post! Maybe I have really gone too far and a camcorder like that would fit my needs. Then again, yesterday I found this video comparison of Sony HX9V, Sony Nex-5R and the Panasonic FZ1000 and the difference in sharpness can be clearly seen! I know that the Sony HX9V has an edge over my Canon ELPH 300 when it comes to video, but when I saw the FZ1000's sharpness I felt like it would be wise to invest in an all around camera that works perfectly for both my YT tech videos and also for taking images of my brother playing ice hockey (need zoom and great autofocus). Sony HX9V vs Sony Nex-5R vs Panasonic FZ1000 Video Clarity Comparison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URPmeJbrDgo I mean, a camcorder is just for videos and from my research a good quality all around camera can record videos as good and sometimes even better than than a camcorder that costs similarly. Other than that, I appreciate your opinion and will take a look at the camcorders. Oh, by the way, if you had to ... Continue Reading
Breaktrough in technology: Nikon's First Touchscreen Camera is here V3
If I am not mistaken, V3 is the first Nikon camera sporting a touchscreen, and immediately a tilting touchscreen (hooray). I know, micro 4/3 cameras have them for "decades", but I am talking about Nikon. I hope this is the first big step to eventually get a full-frame (Nikon) interchangeable camera with articulated or tilting touchscreen. I know, if tilting touchscreen was so important to me, I could have bought an m4/3 or 70D, but I am talking about Nikon, and at that time I was not aware that tilting/articulated touchscreen were that important to the fisheye and stealth street style of photography I love so much. I have an A7, full-frame, tilting screen, awesome camera; but the maker omitted the touch-sensitiveness :-( . If only the V3 were not that expensive, I'd upgrade from V1 (the V3 costs nearly four times more than the amount I paid for my V1) immediately. I am again on the market for a new camera (since my daughter definitively has grabbed my A7, too). This time I am for a ...
I wish you luck and hope Nikon bring something out to suit. Bare in mind the V3 still doesn't have focus peaking, such an intelligent and usefull thing for manual focus not to mention creative photography. Personally I sometimes use my screen to focus with a Hoodman dioptre on my D800E and I don't know that I want to have to wipe finger marks off it all the time like I do on my tablet. I would rather have external knobs and buttons, so I can keep heads up on the scene and not push through menus to adjust things. Continue Reading
How well does the touchscreen work in the winter when wearing gloves? Continue Reading
Thank You for the wishes, and sharing your thoughts. I appreciate a lot. You are right with focus peaking; I absolutely love it (my daughter even more); it's shame V3 has no state-of-the-art focus peaking in a huge high quality EVF :-( in 2014. I love external knobs too (A7 is brilliantly equipped with external knobs and dials) along with a touch screen. For menus I do not mind touch screen; it's touch magnification, touch focus-rack, touch autofocus, touch shooting that I'd love from a camera of 2014 or '15. I am not in a rush at all, I am deprived of my A7, but still have a decent V1 with bunch of gorgeous lenses. My next camera must be a perfect one and must meet my minimal requirements: full-frame, touch-sensitive tilting/articulated screen, enough external knobs and dials, focus peaking, touch magnification, touch focusing, touch shooting, smooth focus rack in video, 1080/60p video, GPS, tethered or wifi shooting (video included), time-lapse, mic-in, headset out, and so on and ...

15 Wedding Guest Dos and Don'ts
Pay attention to the deadline on the invitation. In fact, if you know your reply, pop it in the mail as soon as possible.
DON'T assume you can bring a date
Unless it says "and guest" on the invitation, only you should be attending. And no, DON'T call the bride and ask if you can bring a date, either. If it were in their budget, the bride and groom would've extended the extra invitation.
DO buy a wedding gift early.
Couples spend tons of time choosing the items on their registry - and they picked 'em because they plan on actually using them, says Carley Roney of The Knot (http://www.theknot.com). So do them and yourself a favor and buy from the registry. To make your gift seem more personal, buy it early, when there's more of a selection to choose from. Otherwise, you might indeed end up having to spring for the garlic press, dish towel and rolling pin combo.
DON'T bring a large gift to the wedding.
Between taking down the decorations, remembering to hand out vendor tips and saying goodbye to all their guests, the last thing the bride and groom - and their families - need to worry about at the end of the reception is figuring out how to fit all their gifts in the car. Save them the trouble by shipping yours directly to their home.
DO be on time.
True fact: Weddings tend to run late. But that doesn't mean you should. Plan to be at the ceremony 20 to 30 minutes early, says Azure Nelson of OneWed.com (http://www.onewed.com).
DON'T forget to turn off your phone.
As much as everyone loves a random ringtone outburst of "Never Gonna Give You Up," don't ruin the couple's big day by interrupting their vows with Rick Astley - or anything else.
DO pay attention to the dress code.
You don't want to be underdressed for the wedding. Even if it's casual, always wear a dress, skirt or suit. Dress for the venue, but follow instructions from the bride and groom, advises Roney.
DON'T wear white
This one should go without saying, but just in case, we'll repeat: Who wants to be that girl? You've got a million color combinations to choose from; you don't need to wear white. Oh, and stay away from the light ivories, too.
DO stay out of the photographer's way
He or she needs to capture those life-changing moments, says Brooklyn Bride's (http://bklynbrideonline.com) Vane Broussard. It won't be the same if your head is in the way, so pay attention, and above all, resist the urge to photo-bomb.
DO congratulate the family
Even if you've never met the couple's parents, seek them out to introduce yourself, thank them and tell them how much you enjoyed the wedding. Note: This one is particularly important if there isn't a receiving line.

Pokemon Farming: Delibird
August 10, 2008
Continuing our Winter in August theme, I bring you shiny Delibird!
Now, to get this out of the way, these Delibird are in no way hacked or cloned, each is one of a kind! Delibird are one of several daily swarms you can get in D/P, and they're all obtained though chaining for shinies. I love to chain, and I've been looking for a good reason to do it, so here we are!
Tonight, I have 28 Purple Delibird to hand out! I gave them a few TMs so that they have a little extra something than the only move it has in the wild-Present (amulet coin+vs seeker=$$), so here are its moves:
- Present – Att?? Accuracy 90% A gift in the form of a bomb, can restore your opponents HP.
- Ice Beam -Att 95 Accuracy 100% STAB
- Blizzard -Att 120 Accuracy 75% STAB
They either have the ability Vital Spirit, which makes him never under the 'sleep' condition, and Hustle, which gives physical attacks 1.5 times the power, but reduces the accuracy to 80%.
All shiny Delibird will also have some sort of item as a present!
So you want a Purple Penguin? Heres the rules:
- Sign up with your name and friend code down below in the comments-first come, first serve!
- First time commenting here? All first time comments are moderated and will not show on the site immediately! We will get them through as soon as we can.
- Please only ask for one. After 28 requests, I have no more to give!
- You can choose a gender and/or an ability, but I can't guarantee that you will get it-you cannot request nature.
- You may ask for a nickname, but be prepared to wait extra time!
- I don't need anything in return, but if you have a Gulpin I wouldn't turn it down :D
- You have two hours to pick it up from now (6pm New York Eastern Time), I wont reserve it for you after that.
- If there are leftovers, I will be offering them in our forums, do not ask for leftovers in the forums unless I offer them.

I don't know if it's because it is January or what, but I am in a rut. I really need something new in my life. I know first jobs are not glamorous, but I just can't take how stale mine is right now. I just want to get out and make an impact. I miss the Journey of Hope, being able to travel, meet new people, and work with people with disabilities. I love Charlotte, but sometimes I fear if I held myself back by staying here. I am afraid to leave friends and family behind. But if I never get out and explore this world, will that really benefit me?
I always love Christmas, and honestly I get really bummed when it is over. How can I make it a whole year until next Christmas? It is such a joyful time, when even hearing a familiar song, smelling a familiar scent, or seeing the twinkling lights, just warms your heart.
On my status I posted, 'Is it possible to make Christmas last longer?'
My friend Wes, had quite possibly the greatest response. I just had to share.
'Saw your status, it IS possible to make Christmas last longer. The Christian Christmas season can begin with Advent but also extend from December 25th to January 6th, which is known as the Epiphany. This period is popularly known as the Twelve Days of Christmas. So yes, Christmas isn't technically over for another twelve days or so.
But I think with you, Michael, the Christmas spirit lingers for a period of roughly 365 days, it just manifests itself in ways other than wrapped presents under the tree and chestnuts roasting on an open fire. It's sort of like the Journey of Hope; the trip only lasts two months, but the mission and spirit live on. We're just lucky enough to experience it in it's true form once each year.
I think you should disregard the numbered days on the calendar and celebrate Christmas as long as you want.
Merry Christmas!"
Journey of Hope South 2013
Well after a long hiatus, I have a new entry. When you read this, don't feel concerned for me, I am fine. I was only thinking of this because I was giving advice to a dear friend.
People wonder why after a break up, it takes so much longer for themselves to recover. Why is it that there ex seems so much happier? Or that they have already moved on and might be in a new relationship.
Well the heart almost never breaks even. One person will end up with the bigger side, the bigger piece of a broken heart. I like to believe that this is the person who gave all their heart in a relationship. They truly cared about the other person and it seems like they cannot recover. Well it will take more time for that big heart to heal, and when it does it will be even better than before.
So if you find yourself asking why you can't move on…or why can't you just be happy. It's because you have a big heart, you're a good person with a lot of love to give. You will find it again some day and that ex of yours, their heart is barely a scrap of turkey left over from Thanksgiving.( side note I love thanksgiving) Just give your BIG heart some time to heal, I promise it will. We all wonder what could of happened if things were different in our past relationships, our what if moments. When we continue to think of those moments, they often cloud things that are better for and maybe right in front of us.

The performance of a tuned liquid damper equipped with inclined and oscillating damping screens
Date of Award
Spring 5-2007
Degree Type
Degree Name
Master of Applied Science (MASc)
Civil Engineering
Michael J. Tait
The first application of the tuned liquid damper (TLD) to mitigate the
dynamic vibrations of structures was only around 20 years ago and has just been
recently applied in North America. TLDs are partially fluid filled tanks (usually
water) with a fundamental sloshing frequency tuned close to the frequency of the
dynamic mode of structural vibration to be suppressed. Water alone is
insufficient to achieve the level of damping typically required for design.
Damping devices are often submerged in the water to greatly increase the inherent
TLD damping. The damping device investigated in this study is a thin sharpedged
horizontal-slat screen. TLDs with such screens of a particular solidity are
designed for one target amplitude of structural response and have limited
efficiency over a range of structural response. To increase the efficiency, the
concept of smart screens is introduced in this study.
Smart screens is the name given to a damping screen that alters its fluid
pressure-loss characteristics at differing levels of excitation, (ideally) in a passive
state of control. Symmetric fixed-angle screens and oscillating (rotating) parallellinked
screens are experimentally investigated inside a rectangular TLD on a
shake-table under sinusoidal motion in this study.
TLDs have similar principles to common tuned mass dampers (TMD) and
are analyzed accordingly. The TLD equipped with fixed-angle screens is
modelled with linear numerical fluid models to simulate the TLD performance for preliminary design purposes. An inclined screen alters the pressure-loss
characteristics from its typical vertical position, which in turn changes the
inherent TLD damping, allowing damping to be controlled by simple screen
rotation. The analytical models, including the utilization of a pressure-loss
coefficient for an inclined horizontal-slat screen in oscillatory flow developed in
this study, are compared with experimental results to verify their accuracy and
ascertain limitations.
Oscillating smart screens are investigated mainly for their practical
consideration in a preferred passive mode of control. The screens rotate
automatically with changes in fluid velocity (or excitation amplitude). Their
ability to maintain a near-constant amount of TLD damping (or resonant energy
dissipation) is examined. Other implementations of (passive) smart screens are
possible and suggestions for future study are recommended.
A TLD equipped with the mathematically modelled symmetric fixed-angle
screens is theoretically investigated in a hypothetical structure-TLD system. This
system demonstrates the ability of a smart screen to change its damping
characteristics-altering the angle of inclination in this study-over a range of
structural response thereby maintaining an optimal level of efficiency over a
range of structural response accelerations.

Swing and a miss. The article is complaining that all of our defenses work with a RNG. Evasion is not 100%, the random number generator decides if we get hit even while having evasion up. Same for Cloak of Shadows, big help popping CoS does when the RNG decides that a fear is going to get through anyway.

Nashua man accused of identity fraud
Darren Frost, 20, of 10 Arrow Lane, was arrested Friday on a warrant charging him with identify fraud. He was later charged with two additional counts, all class A felonies.
Police said a Nashua resident on Sept. 21 reported someone took his personal information and had three credit cards issued in his name. Frost, who knew the man, was identified as a suspect, police said.
What's next: Frost is free on $10,000 personal recognizance bail pending a March 25 arraignment in 9th Circuit Court, Nashua District Division.

I first learned about Nick Cave's work in an undergraduate puppetry class. Puppetry, like architecture and some other disciplines, is the synthesis of a myriad of techniques both artistic and mechanical, attracting sculptors, dancers, and engineers in equal number. Similarly, Cave's 30-strong herd of horses that visited Grand Central last week in his piece HEARD•NY, presented by MTA Arts for Transit and Creative Time, as well as the "Soundsuits" for which he gained initial recognition are genre-bending works of art: they are visual and performative wonders as well as feats of construction. Cave is the director of the Graduate Fashion Program at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, so while he may be an unwitting puppeteer, he is certainly no stranger to the intersections of beauty, functionality, and craftsmanship.Continue Reading →
Before Nick Cave's "Heard•NY" galloped off into its first performance of its week-long installation in Grand Central Terminal, the soundsuit artist explained that he wanted to "produce a piece that brought us back to a dream state." The 60 dancers from the Alvin Ailey School definitely gave the 30 fringed horse costumes a strange sort of life, as they changed into the horses and then out again into a frenzied dance of movement.Continue Reading →
On October 12, during Creative Time's 2012 Summit we liveblogged the evolving boycott over what some people were calling a "partnership" with an Israeli organization that received funds from the Israeli government.

Topic: Unicorn
Posted: August 24 2011 at 13:21
UNICORN was a neo-progressive rock band originating from Örebro, Sweden. UNICORN is one of the many projects fronted by influential Swedish musician Dan Swanö (Edge of Sanity, Nightingale, Bloodbath, Pan.Thy.Monium, Karaboudjan, etc). The band was formed in 1988 by Anders Mareby on guitars, Peter Edwinzon on Keyboards, and Dan Swanö on vocals and drums. UNICORN had multiple changes in bass players (Tom Nouga, Per Runesson, and even Peter Edwinzon and Dan Swanö).
Some demos and two albums followed. I got in touch with Dan Swanö for the Unicorn saga.
You were very much in the centre of the Swedish death metal scene with Edge Of Sanity and other bands at that time. Why did you start up a neo prog band like Unicorn and why neo-prog ?
Thank you to Dan Swanö for this interview
Hopefully, someone will re-release the Unicorn albums again

Damn. I assumed since "Unicorn" was being interviewed that there was a new album/remasters/tour in the future. Such a shame. Cool interview nonetheless.
And before today I didn't know that Unicorn did a cover of "After Me". It's so amazing, even better than I was expecting it to be.

DEAR BENNY: My husband died this past August. We owned and lived in our house for more than 15 years, but now I want to sell. Am I eligible for the up-to-$500,000 exclusion of any profit that I will make? --Annie
Ready to give your bathroom a facelift, but can't decide what changes to make? From tubs to toilets to tile, the sky is the limit when it comes to bathroom renovations, even if budget is not.
The California Housing Finance Agency is now offering the Schools Facility Fee Down Payment Assistance program to qualified buyers of newly constructed homes. With home prices and mortgage interest rates already near all-time lows, the down payment assistance increases the affordability of new homes even more for qualified buyers.
STOCKTON - Wells Fargo & Company is hosting a free Home Preservation Workshop in Stockton for Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, Wells Fargo Financial, Wachovia Mortgage and Wells Fargo Home Equity customers facing financial hardships.
DEAR BENNY: We recently had a contract to sell our home to a "cash" buyer. He and his wife were allegedly inheriting a large sum of money, and their Realtor confirmed that she had seen the bank account statement confirming a "vast sum of money," reportedly well in excess of our contract price.
A gas fireplace can add ambiance and warmth to any room, and with the cold weather, you might be dreaming of adding one in your home. Because purchasing a fireplace is not something we do every day, there are some important things to consider.
The cold temperatures are settling in for the winter months, and if you're not careful, rodents can also settle into your home. Your house - especially your kitchen - offers everything rats and mice are looking for: food, water and warmth.
Saving money is on everyone's mind this winter season. Between the holiday expenses, colder temperatures and tight budgets, finding ways to reduce costs can be a bit of a challenge. If you're looking for ways to save, look at your home, and see if you can improve on your energy efficiency - thereby keeping a few extra dollars in your pocket.
As the chill of winter sets in, your home interior may be lacking the warmth and comfort you'd prefer. Fortunately, creating an inviting atmosphere does not require huge amounts of time or money. And you don't need to be a professional interior designer - or even have experience in decorating - to transform your home into a welcoming haven. To bring your decor into the season and give your home noticeable appeal, follow a few easy tips.
When your redecorating project is done, you want everyone who sees it to think it looks like a million bucks. But woe to your wallet - and possibly your credit - if you overspend to achieve that look.
The Northern San Joaquin Valley was flying high five years ago.
DEAR BENNY: I was at the closing table for my condo purchase only to discover that there was a penalty for early payoff. I called the bank immediately and they told me to "take it or leave it."
From warm woods and creative colors to memorable murals and tailored textures, interior designers and industry experts predict 2012 will offer a multitude of options for those interested in giving their homes a fresh look. Even better for today's cost-conscious consumers is that many of the trends are easy and inexpensive.
Does the bitter cold weather have you dreaming of warm days spending time with friends and family in your backyard? The cold may keep us indoors, but professionals in the landscape and remodeling industry are still thinking about the outdoors and use the winter months to plan spring projects, and so should you.
Twinkling lights, fragrant wreaths and freshly baked cookies help set the stage, but holiday guests truly feel at home when you provide a warm, cozy environment.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The rebound in U.S. home values over the past couple of years has placed many homeowners in a better position to sell their home for a profit.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Sales of previously owned homes rose for a third straight month in June, pushing activity to the highest level in eight months and providing evidence that housing is regaining lost momentum.
