Keywords: Oceanfront cottage deepwater shorefront secluded
My family has owned this property since the mid seventies. Dee lived here permanently for 17 years. John and I consider moving back permanently at some point in the not-so-distant future.
Dee purchased this cottage in 1975
Pristine refuge on a quiet, tide-charged, nature abundant, deeply wooded, ocean front peninsula. 15 miles from the village. Exquisite opportunities for biking, hiking, boating, swimming, roasting marshmallows and sitting around a wood stove. Great refuge from the crowds and easy distance from Acadia National Park for day tripping.
Waterfront tranquility, access to nature, privacy and stunning views across the bay to Acadia National Park. Perfect for sailing. You are welcome to anchor right out front. Kayaks can be rented and dropped off right at your doorstep.This sort of deep water pristine shorefront, where you walk to the beach from your front yard, is an increasingly endangered species. Enjoy it while it lasts!
"Summer was almost gone when we suddenly decided that we would need a
vacation. Since in Northern Virginia area where we live was quite hot, we
thought that Maine would be a good choice. We haven't been before up there
and therefore only when I started to look for a rental I realized it could
be difficult to find something that we would like. I almost abandoned the
search when my husband surprisingly (he usually doesn't get himself involved
in vacation's planning) send me the link and the Mapquest satellite view of
a cottage that happened to be opened only for a week. By a lucky coincidence
that week was one of our two possibilities. We are quite picky and we had
some requirements: waterfront, open view, inflatable launching possibility,
fishing, biking and running possibility, a small to medium sized cottage (it
was about us two). I couldn't believe it! The cottage answered "yes" to our
requirements. We booked it and here we were on our way to find out
that more was expecting for us.... the location has magnificent views, the
mysterious combination of water and mountain, the cottage is the coziest and
homiest we have seen, everything in the house is carefully selected and
designed throwing you gracefully back in time, and there is nothing (and we
literally mean NOTHING) that you would need and it won't be there; from all
sorts of kitchen stuff to binoculars and fishing gear; even a rowing boat!
And then, in one of the evenings we invited Dee over for a glass of wine.
The top of the surprises came when we met the nicest and friendliest
We left the place with our souls full of optimism and nostalgia promising
ourselves that we will be back and we will bring our grown up sons and their
girlfriends too.... the cottage can easily fit 6 persons.
It was for us a wonderful vacation spent in a piece of heaven...."
Have a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
Best regards,
Irina and Nicolas
Things we enjoyed:
The coziness of the cottage is to be experienced firsthand. Early morning coffee and tea, enjoying the spectacular view off the deck; watching the early morning fog as it lifts and the magnificent sunrise across the bay. The stillness, peacefulness and fall colors can't be described with words. Sitting on the deck with a good glass of wine and listening to the sound of the water with an occasional fire in a great fire pit on the beach is a must. Visiting the harbor in Blue Hill to buy fresh lobsters off the boat from a very nice fisherman was a highlight for our trip to Maine. Eating them was even better.
Places we visited were Acadia, Winter Harbor, Bass Harbor, Bar Harbor, Seal Harbor, Blue Hill, Ellsworth and Schoodic Peninsula. Some of the high lights were the Harbor Porpoises along Schoodic Peninsula, the views from Cadillac Mountain Summit, The Blue Hill Wine Shop for friendly service; accepting of our dog and a great sandwich and cappuccino. Also very knowledgeable about wine. If you like to cook, visit Roaster Brother cooks store in Ellsworth. We had a wonderful time on a sunset sail with Downeast Windjammer Cruise Lines in Bar Harbor. You can bring your own bottle of wine to enjoy while enjoying the views during sunset.
Some of the best food we enjoyed we found at J M Gerrish Café, Winter Harbor, friendly, accepting of our dog and the best blueberry pie ever. Seafood Ketch, Bass Harbor, the best lobster roll and a great location with the dog. Flexit Café in Ellsworth was a nice change of pace. The Fish House Grill on the pier in Bar Harbor was very good food, good service and the best Clam Chowder. Black Dinah Chocolates purchased in Blue Hill at the Fair Winds Fresh Flower shop were exceptional. For a quick bite to eat in a very busy area such as Bar Harbor, Downeast Deli and Box Lunch Co., was a good find. On our way to Winter Harbor, we stopped in Hancock at a place called Sullivan Harbor Farms and found the best maple glazed smoked salmon ever.
If you like to knit, Shirley's Yarns, Crafts and gifts in Hancock had a large variety of yarns, some local hand died yarns. There was also The Yarn Shop on the road to Blue Hill with only the basic's and in the flower shop in Blue Hill (previously mentioned) had limited supply of yarn but all from Maine and hand died.
All of this, Thanks to Dee and the opportunity she gave us by opening up her peace of paradise for us to experience. Thanks again, Dee.
Mark and Chris Tribby
The cottage (and Dee) are charming! 30 minutes from Acadia for some seriously good hiking, 15 minutes from Ellsworth and Blue Hill for some small town charm. But if you can eat Lobster each day, you don't even need a car, it is less than two miles to Perry's lobster shack..... a nice walk or bike ride! We planned lots of activities but instead spent more than one day, just sitting on the rocky beach taking in the sounds, smells and views.
Don't hesitate to book this property.
This is our fifth time renting this cottage by the sea and we've already booked again for next year. What draws us back year after year is the beautiful setting. From the deck each morning we watch the sun rise over the bay and the mountains of Acadia stretched across the horizon, an ever changing display of light and color. There is a public beach two miles down the road, but we are quite content to swim at the cottage. It's 50 feet or so across the lawn to a wooden staircase leading down to the water. The beach below is rocky, but we swim there at high tide. It's very private. Inside, the cottage is decorated with art and whimsy. The cottage was clean and as described. The appliances and shower/tub are somewhat dated, and yet still charming. Dee is a wonderful host--thoughtful, welcoming, knowledgeable about the area and easily accessible. There is a smaller studio cottage on the same property. At first we were apprehensive about being close to other renters, but we've never found it to be a problem. And the last two times my sister and her husband have rented the studio so that we can have family time together and yet not be in each other's way. Our dogs love their Maine vacation as well. They have the freedom to be off leash exploring.
Although Newbery Neck is long and feels somewhat isolated (a good thing) it is centrally located for visits to our favorite places--Blue Hill, Castine, Stonington, Corea and Belfast. There's always lots to see and do, although some days we appreciate just sitting back on the deck and watching for ospreys, seals, porpoises and boats. For us it's a perfect vacation spot.
My husband and I cherished our visit! The decorum and essence of the home were hospitable and inviting. It's hard to explain but it felt as if the sunrises over the ocean and the sounds of the water, along with the beauty of the surrounding woods and the solitude therein changed our sense of time. We adventured through the countrysides antiquing and light house hunting. We visited Acadia and spent a day hiking, which was probably my favorite experience! We savored blueberry pie, and admired the art and beauty of the Blue Hill area. We left Surry with some of the mundane of life washed away by the breathtaking beauty of Down East!
My husband and I rented this beautiful cottage for the week and loved it. This was our first time in Maine and we enjoyed waking up each morning to the beautiful ocean and peaceful surroundings. . The cottage was simply adorable and is equipped with everything you need. We enjoyed going to Bar Harbor and some of the other harbor towns. One of our favorite meals was at Perry's Lobster Shack just minutes away. We had a terrific time in Maine!
From my first visit three summers ago I felt like I was coming home as I drove down the lane to this bit of paradise by the sea. Each visit has held its own wonderful gifts. The view is beyond spectacular and for me nothing beats watching the water, mountains & sky as they change throughout the day. This year's surprise was seeing a bald eagle fly over the beach twice and once over my head as I sat on the deck! Dee has created a comfortable oasis where one can step away from the bustle of life, yet have easy access to Blue Hill, Ellsworth & Acadia National Park. One of my dreams is to return to experience the area as things start to slow down with the hint of autumn in the air. Thank you Dee for sharing this home away from home!
If this is booked for the week you'd like, try 304317. Smaller, but on same property.

mid 30s, TTC #1, 2 years so far, fed up. anyone else?(1000 Posts)
Just wondering how many of us there are in the same boat
Immunes tests and ovarian reserve test today. My God, but the phlebotomist was stabby! Both arms, both sore. Very small stuff in the grand scheme of things but...ouchie!
Thanks MissBrightside. It's just nice to know there are other people who are going through the same. Sometimes I don't feel jolly enough to be on some of the other threads and feel like I might bring everyone down
which I do Sorry that you constantly think of TTC. I'd say I think about it at least 10 times a day. That's quite obsessive isn't it?
Hope the tests go well Notnow and that all goes well for your injections Caiphirinas.
Sorry - I didn't mean it's nice that people are going through the same - I meant it's nice not to feel so alone IYSWIM.
I constantly think of it too. Just can't help myself! Get so lost in thought! Doesn't help when you're constantly reminded by having to do OPKs, taking clomid, letters arriving from the fertility doc, bd'ing, texts from friends asking if I'm preggers yet..
Welcome bearface. You'll definitely be able to join like minded people here. I think about TTC all the time. Lots more than 10 times a day. Probably more like 10 times an hour at the minute!! And it's doing my head in
Booked another docs appointment for 2 weeks time to take things to the next stage (only had initial tests done so far). Also bought that "taking control of your fertility" book which I'm finding interesting.
Steam cleaner sounds very exciting! Look forward to hearing the verdict
I know exactly what you mean about constantly thinking about TTC. DH keeps telling me to relax and think about something different for a change but that's hard with so many reminders and appointments and dates to be aware of!
I also tried the 'Taking Control of your Fertility' book which I think would be a helpful read to anyone starting out but I've got to the stage where we've tried it all and now it's definitely time for some help!
Any news on the steam cleaner missbrightside?
Hi everyone
I'm now 2 injections in with my 2nd attempt, and tomorrow I have to start doing 2 a day. This protocol is really quick so I'm having a scan on Wednesday and egg collection could be as soon as next Friday!
DH's nan died in the night, not unexpected, but I've had to say that if poss he needs to try and have a say about dates of the funeral to try to avoid it clashing with egg collection!
Am also fretting way too prematurely about the snow and getting to the clinic as it's 45 mins away in good traffic.
I wasn't going to have anymore acupuncture but have just texted her about having a session before egg transfer as suddenly feeling a bit stressed about it all!
Sorry this is all me me me... Will write more next time
Hope you're all ok. Look after yourselves xxx
Hi all hope everyone is ok.
TTC does seem to take over my thoughts, but have to say after trying so long these thoughts been a little less. I'm trying to concentrate on other things I want to do with my life in case it never happens.
caipirinhas hope that you get to clinic ok, I really hope that this cycle is the 'one'.
Still not booked hols as my DHs boss is being an arse over him having 2 weeks leave. Hoping he will get it sorted this weekend, then we can book flights...thinking I will go on my own if he can't make it !
any idea where you'll go pomatron?
a far away holiday is our plan B!
Real quick one as I'm "working from home" and not doing very well at it .....
Caiphirinas Sorry for your bad news. Wow, your cycle has gone really fast ! Don't worry about the snow yet - it always disappears as fast as it arrives ! I'll be keeping those fingers crossed that all goes well for you xx
Not now Hope the arms are less sore !
Pomatron Hope you get to book your holiday this weekend. It's always good to have something to look forward to.
Sonic & Bearface Thanks for your interest in the steam cleaner !!! (I'll bore anyone who will listen about it !!). It's currently enroute from ... errr ... Ireland ! Why oh why do I never learn about buying from random sites on the internet. It should however be here by tomorrow .... !
Had an initial consultation with ARGC this week. Liked them - and are going to go ahead with them - although have spent most nights awake since dwelling on whether or not we are doing the right thing by essentially gambling all our savings on this ... We won't start immediately as are both going to have further tests first. Interestingly despite DP's 'super' SA results their first recommendation was a sperm fragmentation test as this could show damage not seen in the normal SA test. And could be a good explanation as to why our embryos go downhill at day 3 when the sperm takes over from the egg in leading development. So do feel reassured that we are now exploring different routes.
Really must get ebaying some bits this weekend .........
Keep nice and warm everyone !
So? The steam cleaner? Spill! I'm still agog to find out whether it lives up to the hype.
Evening ladies,
At the risk of sounding like some kind of online stalker, have been following your thread on and off for some time now. Having reached the two year milestone of "barren-ness" at Christmas (and having finally faced up to the need for tests, fertility referrals etc) I am needing to vent/talk/share with people in the same (shit) boat.....I also want to know about the steam cleaner!! So, can I join your gang? I can offer plenty of sarcasm and bad jokes but also (virtual) tea and sympathy.
Quick intro: 34 yrs old, DH is 36. Past 2yrs - absolutely nada in terms of positive tests (not even a single bloody late period), mostly spent in denial and convincing ourselves it would 'just happen'. Now in the middle of having initial blood tests; first appointment with fertility specialist is booked for March (in the NE so have been referred to Centre for Life in Newcastle). Trying not to give in to the potentially rising panic. Weak spots: Sky+ ing things like 16 and Pregnant and One Born Every Minute to torture myself with and eating too many biscuits.
Anyway, here's hoping we all get snowed in overnight and that Monday is cancelled....
Welcome starfish. I'm fairly new myself but just wanted to give a big wave and say feel free to vent and moan on here.
We've gone backwards and forwards a bit in the last two years really - doing opk's, not bothering and just shagging, getting initial tests done (no issues), buying a CBFM, giving up on that, getting pregnant, having a MMC. Now got another docs appt next Monday to talk about next steps but also trying everything in my power to make it work naturally (no alcohol, no caffeine + charting). So fingers crossed.
We have had practically no snow in Manchester so no chance of a day off for me tomorrow.
I'm also keen to hear steam cleaner news!! Maybe it's that good it has been a massive distraction from TTC and the forum?!
It hasn't been delivered yet .... Due to "adverse weather" .... Bloody rediculous as my little Fiat managed to get around all weekend - am sure a Parcelforce van could have made it .... !!
Welcome Starfish
Can't type anymore as am on a cold delayed train .... !! Roll on Spring.
Hello Steam Cleaner Fans!
That's annoying missbrightside. Whenever you complain about things like that they always spout 'elf and safety'. Grrrrr.
I'm mid-AF ATM - can't wait for it to do one.
We had snow all day yesterday in the SE, but everything seems to be moving around outside. I am just staying in
eating biscuits trying to negotiate a job, but no one is getting back to me. Oh well . . . I'll just have to put the kettle on then.
It has been delivered. It's the size of a ... err ... steam cleaner and I have no idea where it is going to be stored. I probably won't get time to use it until the weekend so you will have to wait with baited breath for my
inevitable whinging review. I need to watch the instructional DVD first. Forget about IVF - Pah ! This is serious stuff .....
(Caiphirinas Keeping everything crossed for you this week. Let us know how you get on).
Big hello to everyone else.
Thanks missbrightside
Just had a scan and have 19 follicles at the mo, 2 are big enough but the rest need a bit longer. Got another scan on Friday
Hope you're ok x
miss brightside excuse my total ignorance but what's a steam cleaner? Think Oz is a bit behind (or I'm totally living in a bubble!). Do I need one? Do report back. Are they just for carpets & tiles? What about wood floors?
I've been thinking about getting one of those robotic vacuums as I love the idea of it vacuuming whilst I'm out at work! Currently vacuuming is supposed to be my husband's job & then I go round with mop after (we've only got wood floors) but lately I've been doing it all & it's really getting on my tits!
Good luck caprihinhas! 19 follies is amazing! There's got to be plenty of good uns amongst them & seems right that you started this thread so u should be first to depart the shit boat for the smug preggers train (although I hope you'll check in on us occasionally to remind us there is hope!). How are you feeling? Hope you're finding time to look after yourself - sending you and a
We're supposed to start ivf#3 in march but I'm dreading the stress of it all & worried about the money. Also scared to death if it doesn't work, then what? I agreed to a crazy new expensive tv at the weekend mainly I think as I'm looking for excuses to delay ivf!!
Ps welcome sta4fish! Sorry you're here but you're in good company
Pps good luck for your Dr appt sonics. Well done for booze free, I'm seriously impressed. I've tried most things... But only for a month eg no booze for one month, still not preggers so get pissed (on day one of period whilst cursing the world!!), try charting, still not pregnant so give up, even tried not being vegetarian after 26 years but again nada/zip/nought so now I just try to be healthy & holding out for a miracle!
Lesley - from what other people say, hitting the jackpot seems to be the most random thing. Some people swear by this or that that they changed in their diet or lifestyle. Others change everything, then go back to eating biscuits/drinking/having sex once a month (arf!) and then it seems to happen. Why oh why it can't be simpler I just don't know! The doctors don't seem to know much either it would seem, unless you have a specific problem they can help with. I don't geddit, but I'm waiting for that lightning bolt moment! It seems to happen to most people (from what they say) just when they've almost given up and they leats expect it. I almost give up every month, but then it doesn't happen - gah!
Actually I was wondering whether to 'give up' in the hope that it happened. Not sure how you do that though, without feeling massively guilty once you're back 'trying' again!
The trouble is how do you just 'give up'... I 'give up' booze, crisps, cakes etc on a regular basis and I last (if I'm lucky) 2 days because it makes me think about that lovely glass of red with tasty snacks even more
I'm currently a bit pissed with the fertility unit and the really annoying secretary, I was told to contact them 3 months after my lap and dye to decide what to do next, needless to say I did over a month ago and am still awaiting response. Mind you I shouldn't be surprised as I had to chase up the follow up letter with the outcome of the lap as they 'forgot' to send it me.
caipirinhas hope all goes well on friday and that this snow hasn't caused you to many probs.
Time for a cuppa
Ha ha - maybe we should all just give up giving up and then it'll work!!! No?
I've got a great idea that none of us will have ever heard before. Why don't we all just relax and then it will happen!
Crikey Sonics - if I had a pound for every time I'd heard that one . . .

Dining Experience
Sail Date: August 23, 2014
Reviewed: 2 years ago
Traveled As: Couple
Room Type: Inside
I was very disappointed in dining arrangements. First of all, we could not get a table for two in the early or late dining room because we were told it was too small and only had larger tables. So we had to do the anytime dining. We had to go up to deck 5 every night before dining, wait in line to get a table number, registered at a counter, get a printed receipt, and then go down two decks to the actual dining room. We had a different table each night. We asked for table for two but they were actually only eight or ten inches apart so you heard everything the other table was saying. We had different waiters every night so we did not get the pleasure of knowing our servers. We ended up getting a table for 4 a couple nights and had more privacy. Another thing I need to mention is the lack of enforcement of the dining room rules. There were people in the formal dining room with flip flops, hats, tank tops, etc., and nothing was ever said to them. If you have rules, they need to be enforced. Lastly, the VIP disembark process was a joke. There were people waiting in the designated area that were clearly not VIP's. They had different color cards hanging around their necks in clear view so you could tell they weren't. Nothing was said to them either. There needs to be someone enforcing that rule as soon as the person enters.

Question: Roseola
|jboyd - Sat Jan 27, 2007 11:38 am
Share |
My 20 month old son is just now ending a bout of roseola. He is on his third day of the rash and I have noticed for the last 3 days he has been extraordinarily fussy. He is so clingy which is very unlike him. Is this a normal response to the illness? I am just wondering what kind of pain he could be in Tylenol does not help his fussiness. Very decreased appetite still as well (very unlike him). I am just concerned because I would think we should be on the upswing from this illness and not as fussy, but it seems to be getting worse instead of better.
Thank you for your help,
Worried mom

Hi jboyd,
Roseola may last 3-7 days. If your child is improving as far as other symptoms, don't be over concerned at this point. You may want to notify your child's physician so if an evaluation is warranted it can be scheduled. Best wishes.

Islamabad, May 23: Afghanistan's cricket squad arrived in the capital city today to began what will be the first official tour by any foreign team to Pakistan since the March 2009 attack on the Sri Lankans in Lahore.
The Afghanistan team is due to play three one-day matches against the Pakistan ''A'' side in Islamabad, Rawalpindi and Faisalabad.
Afghanistan are the first foreign squad to tour the strife-torn nation since militants attacked the Sri Lankan team, killing six policemen and a van driver and wounding five Sri Lankan players and their assistant coach.
"It is a very significant tour for Pakistan cricket and we will ensure that the visitors are provided with the best possible security measures," an official of the Pakistan Cricket Board said.
Pakistan's former captain and wicket-keeper, Rashid Latif is the head coach of the Afghanistan squad.
The board has sought security assurances from the government for the series with PCB chairman Ijaz Butt holding a meeting with interior minister, Rehman Malik last week.
A source in the interior ministry said that Malik had issued special instructions to provide top security cover to the visiting team.
"After the attack by militants on the Pakistan Naval airbase in Karachi, the government is now taking no chances with security for the visiting team and there is already a high alert in the country," the source said.

Before today, Jayson Werth hadn't had an extra-base hit since June 28. His last homer came 12 days before that. He's got both a double and a homer today, and both of them came after Werth did something he's usually loathe to doing: swing at the first pitch.
Both Werth's fourth-inning double and his sixth-inning homer - a two-run shot that tied the game - came on first-pitch swings. Werth had put only 19 first pitches in play all season before today, hitting one of his 10 homers and batting .263 in those situations.
He's typically been a selective hitter whose calling card is to see lots of pitches in an at-bat, but there have been times this season where he's almost looked tentative at the plate, watching hittable pitches go by and often looking at third strikes. By pulling the trigger early today, though, he's had his best game in months, and helped the Nationals pull even with the Astros.
We're tied at two at the seventh-inning stretch, after Livan Hernandez rebounded from some early struggles to get through six innings. Henry Rodriguez will relieve him in the bottom of the seventh.

Alli is a weight loss pill intended to help people burn one pound of fat, for every 2 pounds lost through exercise. It's an over the counter medication made to help reduce about 25% of the fat one eats.
It's only available for people 18 and older, and for those who would be considered obese with a BMI of 25 or more. You also have to introduce a low-calorie, low-fat diet, and you have to make sure to take Alli alongside fats in your meals. The intended purpose of Alli is to remove some fat calories from your diet, by not having it digested, and instead being passed through one's stool. So is this really an effective weight loss pill? What kinds of weight loss effects are possible? Featured in this Alli review is all the information needed to make an informed decision.
Do You Know the Best Weight Loss Pills of 2017?
Alli Ingredients and Side Effects
FD&C Blue No. 2
Edible Ink
Iron Oxide
Microcrystalline Cellulose
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Sodium Starch Glycolate
Titanium Dioxide
Orlistat: The sole key active ingredient in Alli. It's used to help reduce the absorption of some fats, by having them removed by bowel movements.
You are advised to skip dosing these pills if you have a meal with no fats. It's also advised to get no more than 30% of your calories from fat to make good use of this ingredient. Both Drugs.com and the official website for Alli confirm:
"Orlistat can make it harder for your body to absorb fat-soluble vitamins"
"may recommend that you take vitamin and mineral supplements while you are taking this medication"
This can reduce the intake of vitamins A, D, E, and K. When using this pill, it's important to watch out for signs of vitamin and mineral deficiency. This can potentially lead to issues such as:
- Brittle nails and dull looking hear.
- Extreme fatigue.
- Vision problems.
- Mood swings and symptoms of depression.
- Reduced muscle mass and weakness in the limbs.
- Blindness.
- Increased risk for disease.
Orlistat itself has also been shown to potentially cause side effects that include:
- Blood in the urine.
- Severe lower back pain.
- Kidney problems including little to no urination.
- Liver issues that may cause nausea, itching, loss of appetite, dark urine, fatigue, and yellowing of the skin and eyes.
- Oily and or fatty stools.
- Gas and oily discharge.
- Stomach pain, increased bathroom usage, and rectal pain.
- Inability to control your bowel movements.
- Several other side effects
There are also other side effects that if experienced, it's advised to seek immediate medical help. This can be a sign of serious health problems that can be potentially life threatening if not treated.
The official website does list some possible side effects, but a list on Drugs.com features all the possible issues people have experienced.
A clinical study of this ingredient showed very poor weight loss benefits. The Cochrane Metabolic and Endocrine Disorders Group ran a study showing the effects of the active ingredient when used for over a year:
"compared to placebo, Orlistat reduced weight by 2.9 kg"
2.9 kg is 6.39 pounds. So people lost around 1.87 pounds each month. This is significantly less weight loss than what other supplements can provide. You also have to make sure to consider all the possible side effects, as well as reduce your calories and increase exercise.
The company claims that you can lose around 5% of your total body fat if taken according to their demands, but this still isn't very much. The added diet and exercise is likely a major part of why there's weight loss.
FD&C Blue No. 2: Synthetic food coloring added to help provide a blue color. It has no nutritional value, and is only added to make these pills appear blue. Rats given this ingredient were subject to:
"statistically significant increases in brain cancer"
This is according to a study by the Center for Science in the Public Interest. They also advise that this ingredient should be banned, since it has no nutritional value. It's also believed that this ingredient may cause hyperactivity as well.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate: A detergent and foaming agent that may cause skin and eye irritation.
Sodium Starch Glycolate: White powder added to help a pill dissolve and absorb better. It can be extracted from common allergens like wheat and corn. Those allergic or sensitive to these ingredients won't know which is added, since manufacturers aren't required to list what extracts are used.
EDITOR'S TIP: Combine this supplement with a proven fat burner such as Sletrokor for better results.
Alli Quality of Ingredients
10 of the 11 ingredients are inactive, meaning they have no weight loss purpose.
The only truly beneficial ingredient is Orlistat, and its results on long term weight loss have been poor. You also have to make sure to take it alongside fats, so people who don't eat much dietary fats wouldn't see much improvement.
Clinical studies have shown that it may lead to serious side effects, of which there are many. Other studies have revealed that its weight loss effects are poor. Just over a pound of weight loss is possible each month, which isn't much. This also comes at the addition of added diet and exercise, as well as special intake considerations, as not all people are advised to take this weight loss pill.
You also have to watch out for fat soluble vitamin loss, which may require extra supplementation with multivitamins.
The Price and Quality of Alli
Alli is available for purchase in store and in online retail stores. One 40 day supply sells for $69.99 on Amazon.com. So you're essentially paying $1.74 per pill.
Most of what's inside this pill has no weight loss effect. It's mostly made up of food coloring, pill stabilizers, and additives to ease digestion.
The sole active ingredient has been shown to help reduce dietary fats, but its possibility for side effects and vitamin and mineral loss. Also, the weight loss benefits have been incredibly poor, and as you'll see in the "Customer Opinions of Alli" section, it's not well reviewed by users.
Business of Alli
Alli is owned by the pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline; their US division can be reached below:
Phone Number: (800) 671-2554
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
No returns are offered on Alli.
The makers have also been the subject of controversy over marketing and illegal actions. They also were subject to the biggest fine ever imposed on a drug company. The Department of Justice adds:
"Unlawful promotion of certain prescription drugs, its failure to report safety data, and its civil liability for alleged false price reporting"
"largest health care fraud settlement in US history"
They hid information about possible side effects, and they manipulated prices for several of their drugs.
In 2014, they also recalled Alli after fears of contamination. The FDA adds:
"the company believes some packages of the product were tampered with"
It's unknown how this could have happened, but they voluntarily recalled all batches of Alli in the US.
EDITOR'S TIP: For the best results, our experts recommend using weight loss pills for at least 3 months. Save your money by buying a few bottles at once.
Customer Opinions of Alli
Several customer reviews are available online. Here's what a few have experienced:
"hate so much that I paid for a product that did absolutely nothing"
"exercised as I did before, failed to lose any weight"
"It was disgusting and uncontrollable"
"Does not work at all"
Side effects were often listed, and they ranged from loose and oily stools, flatulence, increased bathroom usage, and sudden unexpected stools. A few people mentioned they couldn't be far away from a bathroom, as they would suddenly get the urge to have to go immedietly.
A lack of weight loss was also listed as a problem. Currently 571 reviews on Amazon.com confirm the lack of beneficial effects. Many struggled to see any weight loss even with proper diet and exercise.
There was often concern that the new batches of Alli just aren't as good, and that there's a lack of any noticeable change.
Conclusion - Does Alli Work?
When considering weight loss pills like Alli, it's important to look at clinical studies and customer opinions. Many users who tried Alli failed to see any change, and many severe side effects have also been listed. Though Alli can help reduce some fat intake, it only works to reduce fat, and it has no metabolism boosting or other calorie burning effects. So sugar and carbohydrates won't be reduced.
Also, the possibility for loss of fat soluble vitamins might require extra supplementation. A better solution is available that has only natural ingredients, no laxative like side effects, and great customer reviews. The very best option of 2016 is the all-natural Sletrokor.
It doesn't require a special diet, and you can rest assured this supplement won't have laxative like side effects. Customers have also raved about the beneficial and long lasting weight loss effects. You can find these testimonials on their official website, with people leaving nothing but positive weight loss results.
Sletrokor is even supported by an industry great 30 day money back guarantee. So you can take this supplement with the knowledge you're backed by a great risk free guarantee.

I am about to finish up my second week of Alli. I love it. I have been really observing what I eat, working out, and lost 3 pounds the first week. I will know how week 2 went on Monday when I weigh myself again. When I go to the restroom, I feel like it cleans me out! Love it! Don't take this pill unless you are drastically over weight, it is not for the moms who want to lose 10-15 pounds.
I started taking alli Aug. 10, 2009 I weighed 284lbs. I am about to hit my one year marker in a couple of days. Today i weigh 188lbs. I have lost 96lbs so far. I have about 20lbs more to go. This is a wonderful product and i could not have accomplished this weigh loss without alli. If you eat to much fat you will have oily discharge so you learn very quickly how to eat. This product has taught me out to eat properly. Thank you so much alli i owe my life to you
the best loss weight pills when you stick to a diet and exersise
i have been using alli for a week and have already lost 5 and a half pounds, alli works great for me and i would recomend it to anyone, i have had no side effects so far atall.
I noticed the oily discharge after day 2. I guess it had to work itself in my system. This aint no joke. Wear pads if U exceed the 15grms of fat per meal, but an experience like this should make U concious of what U eat and make U want to eat less. ALSO, $$$ check HEB coupons, or HEB coupon booklets. They usually have $10 dollar off coupons for any ALLI product, Or go to the ALLI website for complimentary coupon
i have been using alli for 1 week its the best thing ever but i have also worked hard wiv it i have lost 8 pounds in 1 week wiv the help of a healthy eating plan but no exersize i havent had any accidents either if u stick to a good controlled diet you shouldent have any off the side effects i recomend this but work hard with it good luck
I set up a meal plan on myAlli and hope I don't feel hungry eating less fat. The food options seem yummy. I plan on buying the product this week. I am 5' 6" and 190 lbs, 33 yrs old. My biggest downfall are chips and large portions, no exersize, not enough water consumed. BMI is around 30. I can see that a change in diet with low fat food will be a huge help, but the pill blocking 25% of my fat intake is such an astonishing thing, I just have to try. Someone mentioned wearing a pad. Might just do that if it means loosing this weight! I have read aA LOT of reviews and I don't think this is for vegetarians or people who are already skinny and need to loose the extra "5 lbs".
ok i have a problem. i was taking alli and i was not having any bowel movements like other people, however i was urinating the fat.. i took it for three weeks and lost only 2lbs. i imediatley stopped takin it cuz my aunt told me its not normal to urinate it out. after i stopped taking it i gained the two pounds back. has anyone else had this problem?
This diet worked for me for a while. I have lost a total of 70 pounds, and didn't start taking Alli until I was already down about 30 or 40 pounds. I think it probably helped me lose another 20, but after that I took it sporadically. At that point I really only lost more weight when I was conscientious about exercising. Alli definitely works, but only for 3-6 months. The side affects are not terrible most of the time, but be aware that the Alli stays in your system for a while, so even if you don't take when you indulge in something fatty, you will probably still have side affects (wearing a pad or panty liner really helps).
I stared using this product on 4/08/10 and weighed 205, I'm 5'8". I read the reviews about the TE so I watch everything I eat, staying WAY under the allowed 15g of fat. Outside of a few bouts with gas I have not had any TE.
I love almonds but found a 1/4 cup has 18g of fat so I gave 'em up. Today I'm down to 193 (loss 12 lbs) with a goal of 170 23lbs more to go. I exercise about 2-4 x's a week (cardio). Look, true weight loss is about diet and exercise this product is an added benefit that works if you follow the 15g allowance. Make sure you take a multi vitamin to avoid future health issues. I would recommend product for anyone who is ready to commit.
Quite honestly, I was super scared to use it because 2 yrs ago had my gallbladder removed and if anyone knows that issue, you run to the bathrooom "spur" the moment anyway. But after 4 months on this, it has worked very well for me, had/have about 20 lbs to lose, and have lost 15 so far, some small side affects, but that is mostly my fault eating a little more fat than I should have, otherwise...I would recommend!
hey everyone, I am looking for something to help boost my weight loss. I am a yo-yo dieter and really need to stick to something and commit to changing my life. I am a mother of a 1 year old and 3 year old,and a full time student, so I keep myself very busy. I am 26 yrs old, 5'5", and weigh 144lbs. I really only have about 9 lbs to lose to reach goal #1, but in reality I would love to lose 19 lbs. I feel like if I have that "fear" of going over 15g fat It will help me stick to the plan. One tool I have found helpful in my LONG journey of weight loss is using the online food journal at
It is a great tool to help you keep accurate calculations of how much you are eating.
does anyone have any suggestions, if it is or is not worth me trying this diet? The comments posted so far have made me confident. Is anyone in my weight range that can fill me in on their experiences?Best of luck to the rest of you, and wish me luck. Today is going to be day #1 of my healthy eating habits.
i am a female 31 and have tried other diets, so i decided to give alli a try. I started 7 days ago and weighed 219. In the seven days i took alli before every meal and worked out 3 days out of 7 days. All of my meals have been under 15g of fat and higher in protein, lower in carbs.breakfast i ate 2 eggs boiled whites only,half a bagel or english muffin with a tsp of butter,and 2/3 of a fat free yogurt. Lunch i ate a can of light soup progresso vegetable of roasted chicken and had a small bowl of carrots,cucumbers ,and tomatoes. for dinner i had meat of some kind and two veggies,plus a small salad. i weighed myself this morning on day 7 and weigh 210. i am so excited and i feel great. i have had little abdominal cramping. no TE. I also took a multivitamin at night like it says. I have drank at least 7 bottles of water a day.I have went down a size in pants.I would recommend this. Will comment back after week two.
I started this alli diet on january 10th, 2010 and as of today april 9th 2010 I have lost an AMAZING 56 pounds!! i am 23 pounds away from my goal!! i feel great and look wonderful!! i'm on a low calorie, low fat, low carb diet and i eat alot of lean pockets & veggies and drink alot of crystal light and water. this little blue pill is OUTSTANDING!!!
Started seriously taking it in Dec. Have lost 40 lbs. as of April. I wasn't taking them religiously though and a have been through some tough times where I did not pay any attention to my food intake. So I think I could have lost more if I had stayed on track. When I am on track the weight comes of well. I know Alli has helped with me because I have never seen a loss like this before.
It isn't magic but it has helped me. If you stick to the program, it's great. I will continue to use this product and have recommended it.
I tried it and it did not do a thing for me
I want to take alli but I am scared of the side effects. Can anyone tell me if they are so bad that I won't be able to have a normal day at work? Will I be running to the bathroom every five seconds? Will I have to wear a diaper with my pencil skirts? I'm sure that would be attractive...I just really need to supress my appetite. I work at a job where food is rampant. Free, good food. I have been trying to make myself withstand it but I can't without some sort of incentive. If i KNOW that I have to keep it under 15g, I think I'll be able to do it. But I hear that other people are having the runs even when they do keep it under 15g. All in all, I just want to do if anyone has taken it while they are working 8-5.
I have been taking Alli for 3 weeks and sticking to the plan. I have lost 8 pounds. No kind of leakage. I also don't excercise. Great pill to take, but expensive. Will keep taking it until I lose 13 more pounds
i have been on it for over a month. dont eat a lot. eat healthy. got my sketchers shapeups. i havent lost shit. in fact i've gained weight. ive always eaten healthy. i thought this would help and it didnt. waste of my time
Warning: Alli Linked To Liver Damage
The anticipation for a new diet pill is over as the FDA recently approved Alli (pronounced Al-eye). It's the weight loss newcomer that is quickly finding its place on drug store shelves. Alli is the first FDA-approved diet pill available without a prescription. Alli is actually a low-dose version of Xenical, a prescription drug that successfully assists obese individuals losing weight. Xenical is taken under a doctor's care while following a low-calorie, low-fat diet. Alli has the same active ingredient (Orlistat), but in a much lower dosage, and is available without the prescription.
Alli can help you lose a few pounds more than just dieting and exercise alone. It works by suppressing the body's ability to absorb fat in the intestines. By reducing fat, you reduce calories. When the body is unable to absorb these fats they become undigested waste.
Alli works best when it is used in conjunction with a low-calorie, low-fat diet and a regular exercise program. But since sticking to a reduced-calorie diet is tough and since certain foods need to be avoided while using the diet pill, Alli has partnered with eDiets, a meal delivery service that delivers Alli-specific meals to your door every week.
While some may view Alli as a controversial solution to weight loss, the manufacturers of this product have gone to great lengths to offer a comprehensive program to its users in order to make weight loss as easy and approachable as possible.
Although studies on the amount of weight loss you can lose with Alli are limited, you can expect to lose three to five pounds more than just relying on diet and exercise alone.

Alli contains 60 mg of Orlistat.ADMINISTRATION
Alli is a 60 mg tablet taken three times a day with meals that should not exceed 15 mg of fat.DIET and EXERCISE
A low-fat and low-calorie diet must be followed while taking Alli. Since the success of Alli depends so largely on what you eat, how much you eat and when you eat, you have two choices for designing the most effective meal plan for your weight loss needs:
- You could consult with your physician or a registered dietitian to design a well-laid out diet and exercise plan.
- You could sign up for Alli's partner eDiets, a meal delivery service that creates special Alli-approved meals and delivers them to your door each week.
With the eDiets plan, you eat three meals a day plus snack and desserts. Menus can be personalized to reflect your tastes and preferences and you also have access to a registered dietitian, an online community of other Alli dieters and fitness and exercise support.
Since the fat content of each meal must be closely monitored while using Alli (no more than 15 mg each day), eDiets special Alli-approved meals meet these requirements so that your risk of side effects is kept to a minimum.
The eDiets menu includes a wide variety of delicious meals, including:
- Maple Apple Oatmeal
- Denver Style Potato Skillet with Turkey Ham
- Rosemary Pork with Brown Rice
- Oven Roasted Turkey with Savory Sweet Potatoes and Mixed Garden Vegetables
- Blackened Chicken served with Seasoned Spicy Brown Rice
- Peach Cobbler
- Sugar-free Pudding
Irrespective of which meal plan you follow, since Alli inhibits the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, it is important to take a daily supplement that includes Vitamins A, D and E.
In addition, for the best results, a regular exercise program should also be followed that includes 30 minutes of exercise on most days of the week. If you decide to sign-up with eDiets meal delivery service, you have access to a live fitness trainer to help you customize an exercise plan to compliment your weight loss needs.CONCLUSION
Many people have seen positive results with Alli. However, those considering taking Alli should note that side effects can include gas, and uncontrolled urination and bowel movements, especially when not following the guidelines prescribed by Alli.
Alli is not a magic pill to lose weight, but its special partnership with eDiets, a meal delivery service, makes eating and meal planning simple and convenient.
Do keep in mind that the effects of taking Alli in comparison to just dieting and exercising alone are just the difference of a few pounds. It is necessary that you consult with your medical practitioner before taking Alli.Common Misspellings

Eight-radiologist Casper Medical Imaging in Casper, Wyo., has joined the Palmetto, Fla.-based Strategic Radiology, becoming the first small, rural affiliate of the 18-practice collaborative.
Arl Van Moore Jr., MD, chairman of Strategic Radiology, which now encompasses more than 1,300 radiologists in 15 states, explained the fit. The addition "represents a significant first step toward our goal of including independent radiology groups of all shapes and sizes as an integral part of our independent group practice collaborative," Moore said in prepared remarks issued Oct. 20. "We believe SR has much to offer to CMI, but perhaps more importantly, we also expect their team's knowledge base and expertise will enhance the SR value for all member groups and the specialty of radiology."
RadiologyBusiness.com spoke with Geoff Smith, MD, president of Casper Medical Imaging, about what led up to the decision to join and where it goes from here.
RadiologyBusiness.com: What made joining with Strategic Radiology a good decision for you?
Smith: It doesn't come as any mystery, if you follow what's happening in medicine and in radiology, that, as time has gone on, there is the need—and also some market and other pressures—for groups to offer best-of-breed subspecialized care as a standard offering with whatever they're doing in the community. And certainly, we haven't been immune to that.
You have to have physicians who have their feet on the ground. They have to be participants in the local medical community. You can do some things remotely, but there are a lot of services that require a physician with boots on the ground and hands on the patient and interacting with medical staff. So, for us, there is still a compelling need to service our marketplace as a local radiology group. But we recognize that, as the world continues to evolve, it's going to be necessary for us to ally ourselves with larger and more diverse groups and other locales, both to augment our fund of knowledge and to help us with business management. [So we are open to] alliances that will help us leverage the experience and talents of other groups around the country to basically further our goals and meet our obligations as a local group of physicians.
RadiologyBusiness.com: Will there be cross-pollination between you and SR with professional services as well as business expertise?
Smith: Yes, a little bit of both. I think that Strategic Radiology, like everybody else in all of medicine and in the radiology "industry," is evolving over time. They've got a variety of different things that allow us to control costs through things, for example, as simple as purchasing agreements, shared business expertise for groups that are dealing with the same kinds of issues with billing and government regulation and advocacy and everything else that everybody is dealing with.
There are also quality issues. We have increasing requirements to perform active peer review and monitor quality of services, not only in terms of read accuracy and things as simple as, say, mammographic callback rates, but also more sophisticated indicators like wait times for patients and other things that you need to tend to in terms of patient access. And the kind of quality that people perceive through those kinds of things.
And then there are also access issues in terms of having availability of subspecialists who do rather esoteric exams that are commonly done in an urban locale with a population of a couple million people—for example, cardiac MRI or some other kind of uncommon procedures. Some of these things can happen at any time of the day or night, almost, and for a group of our size it is just not feasible to have direct access to a given subspecialist all the time.
So in terms of cost, trying to run our business efficiently, and in terms of quality—patient access and service access—we saw it as a winning proposition to become an affiliate.
RadiologyBusiness.com: Will you use the affiliation for branding or marketing? Some websites of SR affiliates prominently display the SR logo while others don't show it at all.
Smith: I believe we will. I think that's one of the things SR has been working on. They're basically doing a lot of the things that groups do individually, except doing it across the whole consortium now. They've got marketing tools similar to the ones that some of the professional societies have taken a run at, but these guys have done it with somewhat of a different spin in terms

Dragon Ball Z : Broly Second Coming English Dubbed Movie
The movie is set at the time when Goku is still dead and Gohan has fallen in love with Videl. Goten and Trunks go looking for the Dragonballs together with Videl. The Legendary Super Saiyan is back, and stronger than ever. Apparently at the end of the first film Broly's body wasn't completely destroyed; although that appears to be what we clearly saw. Gohan is the main character here instead of Goku. Goten and Trunks provide some light-hearted laughs and it is good to see Videl step it up. The fight scenes are good also. The ending scene is great that hearkens back to a classic DBZ moment also involving Gohan.This is the 10th Dragon Ball Z movie, being released in Japan as 'Doragon Bōru Z Kiken na Futari! Sūpā Senshi wa Nemurenai' which means 'Dragon Ball Z: The Dangerous Duo! Super Warriors Never Rest', The FUNimation title is 'Broly: Second Coming' this is a very good movie where it is the second appearance of Broly in the film series. Well Broly appears and proceeds to track down Goten and Trunks as Goten's crying reminds him of Kakorot's which really ticks Broly off. Well Gohan soon appears and though at this point he has the power to go Super Saiyan 2 he instead stays level one. dbz broly second coming full movie on moviesdbz and film more details on wikipedia.

Causes of wrist drop
The radial nerve initiates in your upper arm and extend to your wrist and fingers. It coordinates with the brain to transmit impulses and henceforth brings about movement in the wrist. Injury to the radial nerve and wrist drop can happen under the following circumstances...
- Fracture or injury to the wrist, shoulder, elbow and joints of the hand
- Deep bruises or cuts in your wrist that reach the radial nerve
- Tumour, lumps, cysts that can exert pressure in the nerve
- Improper handling of crutches
- Pinching of radial nerve from wearing tight bands, watches around the wrist for long time, sleeping over the wrist or shoulder, etc.
- From medical conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, multiple sclerosis

Complications of wrist drop
- Chronic pain, loss of movement or feeling in your wrist and hand
- Mild to serious deformity of hand
Diagnosis of wrist drop
The diagnosis begins with a physical examination of your wrist and shoulder. Your doctor will ask you question regarding the probability of its occurrence and if you have a medical condition.
Movement of your arm will be tested by your doctor to figure out injury in radial nerve. You should also explain the symptoms properly. Following this, you have to undergo X ray of your hand and CT scan, MRI and ultrasound of your head, neck, and shoulder.
Problem in nerve impulse conduction will be detected by Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction tests, which you have to undergo. In rare cases, a nerve biopsy might also be recommended to look for nerve damage.
Apart from those, specific blood tests might be suggested depending upon your medical condition.
Treatment of wrist drop
The treatment would certainly vary as per the injury that had led to wrist drop. If the problem is minor then it would go away with home remedies and exercise.
Your doctor would prescribe different types of medicines to manage the condition and restore the movement of your wrist. OTC analgesics, painkillers, anaesthetic patches or steroid injections are the fine line of approach. Anticonvulsant medicines and tricyclic anti-depressants are prescribed to manage stabbing pain and tingling sensation.
You might need to wear braces or splint to support your wrist.
Other treatment options for wrist drop include transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) or a surgery to treat the damage when the aforementioned treatments fail to bring about improvement.
Chiropractic and acupuncture therapies also prove beneficial in recovery of wrist drop.
Self care for wrist drop
- Do not move your wrist randomly and avoid pressure on your upper arm, shoulder or wrist.
- Physiotherapy- Your doctor will teach you several exercise techniques to restore flexibility and strength of your wrist. It includes some grasping, rotating and passive exercises which you have to practise everyday

So... I usually have to convert/bake 3d textures down to 2d space because well other render engines often do not have a direct 1 to 1 interpretation of the 2d/3d procedurals.
Today I was thinking that I have a 2d tile'able texture mapped on the uv of an object and it repeats x' odd times. I want to turn that into a projection map, just like creating a file node with the projection locator.
Is there a way to convert the 2d filenode texture map into a file texture map with a projection node that will size it self in 3d space based on the UV repeat number I am using?

Getting the most out of the Olympus E-M5
During the process of preparing the review of the Olympus OM-D E-M5 we spent quite a lot of time trying to work out how every little setting worked. Also being in the fairly unusual situation of having tried to describe the menu options of most Olympus cameras over the past couple of years, I thought it'd make sense to share the things I've found, alongside the findings of dilligent E-M5 owner Timur Born.
Some of these are fairly obvious and some are a matter of taste, but they're all things that we think most E-M5 owners will at least want to be aware of. So please join us on a journey through the settings you might want to play with on the E-M5.
Throughout this article, all menus and item names are stated in bold and any symbols in the menus replaced with a [description] in square brackets.
First things first:
When you first insert a battery into the E-M5, it'll try to behave like a DSLR - showing the Super Control Panel settings screen on the back of the camera and using the electronic viewfinder for previewing the image. Which strikes me as odd - one of the main things the E-M5 offers over a DSLR is seamless operation, regardless of whether you shoot with the rear screen or the viewfinder. Pressing the Live View button on the side of the viewfinder hump pushes the camera into live view mode, allowing use of the EVF and rear screen interchangeably.
The other thing you might wish to do, when you enter the menus for the first time, is press 'INFO' to stop the camera hiding most of the screen behind very slightly extended versions of the current menu item's name. If you're ever uncertain about an option's function, you can always hit 'INFO' again, just to see if the lengthier wording helps clarify the matter.
The other thing to remember is that the menus tend to require you to press 'OK' to confirm - it's easy, especially when you're trying to go on an change another setting, to select an option and the press 'left' to move back through the menus, only to find your setting change hasn't stuck.

User interface tricks and tips
Enabling the Super Control Panel for fast settings changes
The Super Control Panel is one of our favorite user interfaces - it puts all your key settings on a single screen, making it easy to check or change your setup. On the E-M5 it's been made even better by being made touch sensitive, meaning you can simply hit OK to bring the screen up, tap the setting you wish to change, then spin the dial to change it. Alternatively, you can press 'OK' to see a list of available settings.
Strangely, though, Super Control Panel isn't enabled, by default, in the E-M5's live view settings. We think this is one of the most important single changes you can make for making the shooting experience faster and more enjoyable.
|The Super Control Panel gives easy access to the camera's key settings
To enable the Super Control Panel, you need to go to the '[Camera] Control Settings' option in Custom Menu, section D. From here you can decide which user interface is available in the difference exposure modes. You can have more than one interface available in each mode. In general we'd suggest the Super Control Panel - marked as LIVE SCP in the menus - as being ideal for giving you the quickest access to the most functions, all on a single screen.
Once you've made LIVE SCP available for the shooting mode you're using, simply press the OK button from live view and the Super Control Panel should be overlaid as in the screen shot above. If you have left 'Live Control' engaged, you can switch between the interfaces by pressing INFO when the settings are displayed on the screen.
Choosing live view displays and configuring Highlights & Shadows
There five main live view display types available on the E-M5, four of which are optional. As with Super Control Panel, the one we think is best is disabled by default. The available views can be selected by visiting Custom Menu D, '[Thumbnail]/Info Settings' - 'LV-Info.' We'd suggest disabling the histogram, which is rather small and hard to read, and enable the 'Highlights&Shadow' view.
Highlights & Shadow indicates the under- and over-exposed regions of an image by replacing them with blue and red, respectively. This gives an immediate idea of which detail you risk losing with your current exposure. They're also easy to interpret, even in bright conditions where you can't see fine contrast differences on the screen.
|Highlight & Shadow simulation
Better still, the threshold at which the camera indicates under- and over-exposure can be defined in Custom Menu D, 'Histogram Settings.' Depending on how you process your images, you're likely to want to experiment to find settings that suit you, but a setting of 250 - 5 usually provides a good safety-net.
The same options also exist for the electronic viewfinder and are customized in Custom Menu J - '[EVF] Info Settings'. This menu option only has an effect if you've selected Style 1 or 2 from the 'Built-in EVF Style' option at the top of Custom Menu J. These viewfinder styles offer a smaller image preview surrounded by a black or blue information panel but do have the benefit that you can choose a live view display independently of the one you've chosen for the rear screen. We've tended to stick with the default 'Style 3' which exactly mimics the rear display and uses the entire viewfinder area (but also means you have to use the same preview options you selected for the rear screen).
Buttons and dials
There are three primary configurable buttons on the E-M5's body, with the option of another two, if you're willing to give up direct access to AF point selection on the four-way controller. The three primary buttons - Fn1, Fn2 and REC have a wide range of options that can be configured in Custom Menu B - 'Button Function.'
If you also want to use the 'Right' and 'Down' arrows on the four-way controller as configurable buttons, you'll need to change the '[Four Way] Function' to 'Direct Function.' The two buttons can then be configured separately. With this option chosen, AF selection becomes a mode, accessed by pressing 'Left' on the four-way controller, and requiring a press of 'OK' to confirm each change.
A full list of the available button options is included in our Olympus E-M5 review
When configuring buttons, there are a couple of things to remember - Fn2, if set to 'Multi Function' allows access to four functions (including magnified live view), so you may find it the most useful option. To switch between functions, simply hold down Fn2 and spin a control dial. Also, only four of the functions that can be assigned to Fn1 are available in movie mode (AEL/AFL, Off, Digital Teleconverter and AF Area Select) - if you select anything other than these, Fn1 will act as focus acquire/hold when shooting movies. More detail can be found later in this article.

Discuss in the forums
Great article Richard, thanks!
Regarding JPEG compression, did you see much of a difference between "Large Fine" and "Large Normal" in your testing?
"Super Fine" uses 98-100% JPG quality, "Fine" uses 93-98%. "Normal" can go below 80%, but can also go above 90% (I saw up to 95%). The latter depends on the scene you are shooting and you may still not be able to see much of a difference, if any.
While differences can be very small, file sizes can vary a lot. "Normal" can have half the size of "Fine" and even only a third the size of "Super Fine". Again depending on the scene's detail.
This is better discussed in detail on the forum than here, though. So feel free to start a thread. ;)
Many thanks for a truly excellent guide. One question: how does one access the four "My Modes" ?
On the E-5 this is a simple matter of holding down the Mode button (on the camera's top plate to the left of the pentaprism) and turning the main dial which results in each of the four My Modes being displayed (both in the viewfinder and the Super Control Panel) along with P, A, S, M and B.
This permits very rapid change of shooting Modes each with numerous pre-selected options, for instance: from My Mode 1 aperture priority with IBIS at 1, single auto focus, Noise filter at off and ISO at 100 to My Mode 2 aperture priority with S-AF, NF at low and ISO at 800 or to My Mode 3 shutter priority with continuous auto focus, ISO at 1600 and IBIS off, and so forth
Does the EM-5 have an equally quick means to do the same? In the absence of a Mode button, can this be done only by designating either the left or down arrows for drive mode?
I've said it in emails to Olympus and on the forums here. They really need to totally re-think the user presets. They need to be namable. They should use standard English nomenclature like "save current settings to slot 1, overwrite existing saved settings in slot 1, clear existing saved settings in slot 1" for saving settings to the slots, and "load settings from slot 1 to camera (this will overwrite the camera's existing settings!)" etc.
Instead they just say "Set" for both operations and don't warn you when you're about to overwrite existing settings.
Yes, it's not well thought out at all. I did manage to figure it out, but by the time I next need it I will most likely have forgotten. And they really do need to add the ability to name your modes - they have keyboard code for entering copyright info, so it would be a trivial matter to do. I've already forgotten what I've set modes 2 & 3 for!
Have to agree here. The Mymodes are terrific and they did improve the logic of getting at them and the even more confusing RESET in moving from the E-3 to the E-5, but it would be so much easier if we could input a name, notres or a Mnemic.!
With the generous LCD's, there just is no place to put stickies or masking tape anymore!~ ;-)
Great writeup! I learnt a thing or two myself, especially about video shooting :).
DPR, please ignore this. Thank you for a very informative article and taking the time to share what you learned during your review of the camera. Invaluable.
Absoluitely agree that your article is very helpful. Reviews, even very detailed ones, cannot possibly explore in detail every function of a camera as complex and versatile as this. Your article is very mach appreciated by those of us interested in making the best possible use of such a complex imaging instrument, especially when it will likely be some time before a book or video will actually be available.
Oner request: could you produce a more printable format?
The article is excellent - more like this please DPReview!
Really very good, and I already changed a few settings. The info over the super control panel is great; hadn't found that yet...
Q; how do you set the camera to have the super control panel overlap the live view image? I don't seem to be able to do that...
If you've switched into standard live view mode (the first step described), then, once you've engaged Super Control Panel, it will be overlaid on top of live view.
Thanks, Richard and Timur! This guide clearly shows that you think the E-M5 is a special camera.
On the other hand you might also say that it's a complex camera lacking beginners-friendly (as in new to this camera) documentation. ;)
No, it isn't. The image relates to the second aspect (defining the shutter speed at which the camera increases the ISO).
I've got 2 questions:
1. The HLD-6 battery pack/holder has a AC power adapter, AC-3, as an option. Does it provide a standard jack or a proprietay one? I found that AC-3 costs almost $300 - tooooo much for just a simple power adapter, i think.
2. Is it possible by any way to shoot video with FL-600R flash with video LED light on while using the EMA-1 audio input accessory on? Thing is that EMA-1 blocks the hotshoe.
P.S. thanks for a great article!!!!!
Since the FL-600R is not available for me yet and I could not find a manual I don't know the definitive answer. But as a 'standalone' unit coming with manual controls and being powered by its own batteries I don't see why it should not be possible.
thanks ppl
Very helpful! Thanks!
BTW, the first picture on the movie page has the Fn1 and review buttons switched. Is this the English driving version? ;)
Ah! That was a shot of the pre-production camera we had when preparing the preview (the button functions were swapped pretty late in the process, I believe).
Image stabilisation in the viewfinder would be a Godsend after trying to frame shots using an old 200mm tele on my E-PM1. I imagine that with IS built into the lens that this is standard on Panasonic M4/3 cameras - correct?
Yes, on Panasonics if the O.I.S. is turned on, then it's on during the preview as well as during the shot, and this setting was available from day 1. In the earlier models there was an option to have it off during the preview, and on during the shutter release, but now this option has been removed.
I actually often use O.I.S. for manual focusing, and turn it off for the shot, so I was very surprised to learn that Olympus did not have it available during the preview.
Vlad S - Just curious... *why* do you use OIS to focus and then turn it off for taking the shot?
The link from page 2 to 3 goes to the preview home page, the url is http://www.dpreview.com/articles/9115179666/user-guide-getting-the-most-out-of-the-olympus-e-m5/2/3/ instead of http://www.dpreview.com/articles/9115179666/user-guide-getting-the-most-out-of-the-olympus-e-m5/3
thanks for all of the great info!
Oddly that's not how it works for me, but I've made the link less ambiguous, so it should now work.
Very, very, helpful. Having had the e-pl1 and the help of "The Olympus Pen E-PL1 for Dummies" were big helps in understanding the options in the E-pl1. I thought the E-PL1 menus and buttons were daunting until I got a GH2. Now with the EM5 coming, with even more options, at least I'm prepared!!! Thank you very much for this helpful guide.
Thanks. A really outstanding feature I would like added to the OM-D is the ability to buy one. I find this the biggest impediment to use.
Thanks! I'll definitely be playing with some of these settings when I get home.
regarding EVF. i have E-M5 and without changing any EVF settings when i have it hanging around my neck EVF is not always on,because camera goes to sleep quickly ( a minute or two). so it's not really draining the battery (firmware of the camera is 1.0)
sorry..but we need a guide on how to get a e-M5 before we know how to use it ;)
I just stopped by at Focus Camera to hold one. They had none on display, but he did have some in stock. Getting back home I find on their website they list the black body with the kit lens as being in stock.
I wanted to hold one as I have a contact that is arguing it is too small and I should wait until the June or September ones come out. Presumably he's referring to the next Panasonic models.
Wow, nice guide.
I'm very impressed by the level of customization available.
I suspect that it is probably that same high level of customization that is flumoxing people..Adn the problem with the thick, detailed manuals that feel so good in the hand is that they also require a lot of resources to update and correct, should you want to add a new feature, or enhance or change an existing one.
Just finished a couple of days with the camera and the manual, and I thank you for this article. The manual is just plain awful and, like someone else, I definitely had second thoughts about whether I really wanted to keep the camera. All I want to do is shoot and basically be able to change focus, quality, iso, white balance, and metering and all of this is complex with this menu system. Just sold my G1 x in anticipation of buying this and must say that the G1 x with its external buttons is a lot easier to use than this Om-D Having said all of that, I do like the camera!

|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-4406) Wrong order when using ORDER BY on non-deterministic function
|Fri, 02 Apr 2010 23:51:27 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4406?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12853009#action_12853009 ] Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-4406: ---------------------------------------- Hi Nirmal, I think you will find that the handling of random() is fairly tricky, because I think it is a Derby-specific behavior in which the SQL statement gets compiled into something which is able to call java.lang.Math.random() at run time, via some special Derby-Java glue code. I think that the object in question may be a "UserType", which is a class that knows how to invoke user-defined Java code that has been defined as an extension data type, which is what random() is. I suspect it may be easier to get an understanding of the data structures if you first have a close look at simpler situations, as you have been doing so far. In particular, I think you could probably work up to the problem like this: 1) select x from t order by x 2) select x, x*2 from t order by x*2 3) select random() from t order by random() The goal in all 3 cases, I believe, is to enhance Derby so that it can recognize that the OrderByColumn is referencing an expression which is equivalent to a ResultColumn that is already present in the SELECT, and so we don't need to duplicate the processing for the OrderByColumn at runtime, but can rather arrange to have the OrderByColumn directly reference the ResultColumn. Once we have arranged for the OrderByColumn to directly reference the ResultColumn, the original script (select random() order by random()) will be solved, because at runtime there won't be two random()s, only one). However, note that sometimes we *can't* have the OrderByColumn directly reference the ResultColumn, because we will see legitimate statements like: select name from employee order by id In such a case, the two columns are distinct and have to be processed separately. > Wrong order when using ORDER BY on non-deterministic function > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-4406 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4406 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 10.5.3.0, 10.6.0.0 > Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen > Assignee: C.S.

Derby does however generate a second, hidden random() column by which the rows are ordered. > ij> create table t(x int); > 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted > ij> insert into t values 1,2,3,4,5; > 5 rows inserted/updated/deleted > ij> -- wrong result, not ordered by r > ij> select random() as r from t order by random(); > R > ---------------------- > 0.1285512465366495 > 0.5116860880915798 > 0.21060042130229073 > 0.2506706923680875 > 0.6378857329935494 > 5 rows selected > ij> -- correct result, ordered by r > ij> select random() as r from t order by r; > R > ---------------------- > 0.0749025910679918 > 0.07694931688380491 > 0.1724114605785414 > 0.2268758969382877 > 0.31900450349277965 > 5 rows selected -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
