Fluoridation is the absurd, contemptuous and deliberate adding of an industrial toxic waste to our water supply as a public health measure for the spurious claim of reducing the incidence of cavities among the treated population. "Fluoridation goes against all principles of modern pharmacology. It's really obsolete" (Dr. Arvid Carlsson, Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2000).
Fluoridation uses an industrial toxic waste that also contains arsenic, lead, mercury and other elements noxious to our health because they are not bio-available, as well as uranium238, polonium and other radioactive elements. They are dumped into our water supply unpurified, unregulated, unapproved and untested and passed off as tooth medicine. That's amazing!
It's important to understand that this fluoride, hydrofluorosilicic acid, is not a natural mineral, nor a pharmaceutical grade fluoride. Instead, the chemical used is the highly hazardous, industrial toxic waste from phosphate fertilizer industry who extract the phosphate in the mining process that produces it. It contains an alarming number of harmful elements in solution.
How did the use of HFSA (hydrofluorosilicic acid) avoid getting our personal consent to be medicated or to at least have us be notified that we are being medicated?
How did the mass-medication with HFSA get away with providing no information while exposing an entire population to it's fraudulent medicinal claims but harmful health effects?
How did HFSA avoid having toxicology tests performed before being used as mass medication masquerading as a water additive yet being promoted as tooth medicine?
The decision to fluoridate a water supply is made by the local municipality, and is not mandated by any provincial or federal entity.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Health Canada provide recommendations about the optimal levels of fluoride in drinking water in order to allegedly prevent tooth decay.Information about CDC's recommendations can be found at: http://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/.
Health Canada spent millions of dollars on a ludicrously biased and incomplete study claiming that it was extensive and complete and that "the balance of evidence" showed that there was no convincing evidence of harm form water fluoridation. Why did their conclusion differ so drastically from an even more thorough review completed by a well balanced panel of the U.S. NRC in 2006?
Only six panelists were enlisted to review the literature in Canada. All were avid supporters of fluoridation and from the dental profession. None were sufficiently qualified or took the necessary time to fully assess all of the literature available and presented to them for review. This makes a farce out of scientific reviews; it's a waste of tax dollars and shows that Health Canada does not truly care about fulfilling its mandate to work for improving the health and well being of Canadians when the financial interests of the dental profession is put in the balance.
As much as I would like to believe that most of our highly paid medical bureaucrats with all those letters after their names know what they're doing and talking about in medicine, that's not the case when it comes to that contaminated acid pollutant banned by the EPA used for water fluoridation. This has been shown time and again whenever they are questioned about the subject. Yet they claim to be experts. They all claim and repeat that: it's safe and effective. Unfortunately, that's a false claim based on lack of knowledge and misinformation in the case of water fluoridation chemicals that they disparagingly call fluoride.
Here's one claim that finally admits how ridiculous fluoridation really is. On January 25, 2012, Dr. Bryna Warshawsky, Associate Medical Officer of Health for London-Middlesex, stated in a municipal hearing in London, Ontario: "The main effect from Fluoride is a topical effect" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POdUUPBcSDI). That should be the end of the fluoridation debate and it should end the practice of fluoridation.
No one should have to drink water that has been first purified for drinking, then contaminated with the hydrofluorosilicic acid stew used for fluoridation in any city's tap water. Any tourist that visits Ottawa and drinks our water is getting medicated with this toxic waste without knowledge or consent, and so without the possibility for follow-up for side effects by a health professional of any kind.
With this most pertinent information, can anyone NOT see that fluoridation of the water supply is a blatant, illogical absurdity that has to stop? Please do something to stop the insanity of fluoridation. Please write to your municipal Councillor today and ask that they bring an end to water fluoridation. Contact me today to find out how you can help end water fluoridation at email@example.com.

I was never able to achieve an orgasm through intercourse. I realized something was missing but didn't realize it was my foreskin until now. I first tried extenders, which work for their purpose, but didn't add any satisfaction on my end during intercourse. I saw there were hundreds of guys like me then I realized the length might not actually be the problem they were looking to solve. I bought my extender about 4 months ago in August and have been using it religiously. I've gained 1/2 and inch a some girth. I've had sex a few times and everything goes smoothly, except one thing. I don't feel any difference, and I don't feel more masculine. It's not like I have more feeling in my penis.
We as men realize that we are lacking something in the genital region. If you bought an extender you showed your bodily awareness and intuition that there is something MORE you want. I believe were all looking for something in addition to the extender. Sadly this is because of the mutilation that took place when you were just an infant. Yes circumcision. An uncircumsized male has a max of 24,000 nerves in his penis, while a circumsized male has a max of 4,000. When you're circumsized you lose well over half of the nerves you need to have a strong and enjoyable sexual experience – fine touch nerves, erogenous zones, specialized mucous membranes – all GONE! Have you noticed a decrease in sensitivity in your glans? It's because the man's glans was
never meant to be exposed. It's supposed to stay inside the foreskin and keep its sensitivity for life. I realized that my need for something more sexually gratifying wasn't because I needed a bigger

What I'm Going to Tell the Chinese Tonight
Sometime around 9 PM this evening Eastern time I'll be live via satellite on Chinese national television from Beijing.
Given the time difference, I'll be appearing in the slot before the markets open in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
The point of departure for my appearance is what we just discussed in Tuesday's issue: Namely, that the Asian need for crude oil is accelerating and solving the problem may require $11.7 trillion in new investments.
That fact hasn't been lost on the Chinese who are coming to the realization that the energy balance demanded in Asia is rapidly changing.
Of course, those changes will have consequences – some of which are going to be very profitable.
So I thought I'd fill you in first on what I'll be telling the Chinese tonight…
Trying to Quench a Very Thirsty Dragon
For Beijing, these new demands will mean an energetic mix of upstream acquisitions worldwide, an increasing dependence on imports, and belated attention to possible unconventional tight (or shale) oil reserves at home.
Here's why.
Despite an attempt to move from coal for power production, China is going to become even more increasingly reliant on crude oil between now and at least 2035.
And the options abroad are becoming more limited.
Of course, large acquisitions are possible for a nation with more than $10 trillion available hard currency reserves, especially when the government has instructed national oil companies to hasten asset purchase in other countries.
But the sheer size of China's domestic needs will make it increasingly difficult to find enough available crude in new fields they can control. That means the Chinese will come to have a greater reliance on sources beyond their direct control.
This is one of the two forces likely to have a major impact on crude oil availability and pricing.
The other is the suddenly more optimistic view of a rapprochement between Washington and the Iranians. As it stands, Chinese demand means more competition for available crude, accentuated by similar increases in demand from other Asian countries, especially India.
However, should Tehran agree to change its nuclear ambitions that would mean substantially more oil will be coming onto the market. This volume of "new" crude would comprise a pricing pressure in the other direction.
Well, the simple answer to all of that is this: Expected demand increases will be kicking in – and are already in evidence in other parts of the world – that will put a strain on supply even if the sanctions against Iran are lifted.
Now such a move is not going to be happening anytime soon. There is simply too much in the way of diplomatic, monitoring, and verification agreements required between two long-time adversaries.
But by the time it does happen (if it happens), the global supply-demand dynamic will have already compensated for it. And absent a geopolitical crisis someplace else, we will not be experiencing major spikes in oil prices.
My Advice to the Chinese is Simple…
However, that is not where the profits will be made in oil investments moving forward.
I'll be telling the Chinese this evening that the real opportunities will be found in the mix.
As the development of a genuinely new energy mix expands worldwide – encompassing a range of energy types and sourcing – even in a world increasingly reliant on crude oil, there will be several enticing ways to profit from a broader energy range.
Here, China is already rapidly moving into a dominant position…
It is already the world's largest importer of oil. But it is also a leader in renewables (solar and wind), has started an energetic campaign in shale gas production, and is investing heavily toward becoming a world leader in smart grid and energy efficiency technology.
Aside from the obvious recognized by everybody – the expansion of domestic demand and overall industrial/economic — there are two keys to the Chinese energy picture moving forward.
Both are decisively directed toward larger trade issues.
First, as its energy needs increase, China will become an even bigger import giant for an array of energy sources, including crude oil, pipelined natural gas, and liquefied natural gas (LNG). On the other hand, the negative impact that normally has on trade imbalances and balance of payments concerns in most countries will be offset by the second key.
In this case, Beijing will be able to pay for oil and gas largely through exports of its own goods and services to those sources abroad not controlled by Chinese companies.
And by having a trade surplus with virtually everyone on the globe, the usual negative consequences associated with an increasing reliance on energy imports will be much milder in China.
Opening the Door to New Opportunities
The final element of note is one that could only happen with an economy on the scale of China's.
It involves a new way of looking at transfer pricing which has become a staple in the planning of transnational companies and has been a major element in the cross-border expansion of mega-nationals.
Transfer pricing simply boils down to this: If a company controls major distinguishable stages in an industrial process, they can save money (and thereby increase profitability) by not having to pay market prices for goods and services.
Rather, the transfer price/cost from one entity to another is calculated on the corporate level to the effect that bottom line is necessary for the entire sequence. This has been one of the driving forces in the move to establish vertically integrated corporate structures that include assets in several stages of a process.
Certainly, this is a primary consideration in field and production acquisitions abroad. Simply put, if China already owns the oil being imported, China does not have to pay market prices for it.
Yet I will suggest this evening that the orchestration of transfer pricing and payments for imports in kind will not be enough. To design an energy plan that allows for the consolidation of domestic and international components, one other ingredient is essential.
China needs to develop a massive in-country base for energy technology and equipment design, development, and production.
And that is going to open the door for a range of outside companies…and increase the profits for people like us.
PS. Here's the scoop on a $43 trillion oil find you could make big money on right now. Bar none, it's one of the biggest discoveries ever recorded. And here's the key: Every drop of oil it produces hinges on a small Western company that is about to go ballistic. I have all the details right here.

Scientists piece together remains of Mary Rose crew
Facelift for Mary Rose museum
The Mary Rose Musuem in Portsmouth will close next week until next summer as refurbishment gets underway. Over the next few months the main body of the museum and the hull will be closed to the public. The Learning Centre, cafe and shop will remain open to visitors.
One million visitors to Mary Rose Museum
It's only been open for two years but the Mary Rose Museum at Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard has welcomed its one millionth visitor.
The £35m building has re-united Henry VIII's flagship with thousands of the artefacts found when the 16th Century hull was raised from the Solent 31 years ago.
The Mary Rose Trust "delighted" to announce new Chief Exec
The Mary Rose Trust has announced the appointment of a new Chief Executive, Helen Bonser-Wilton. Helen will take over the post from Rear Admiral John Lippiett who retires this September after twelve and a half years in the position.
Helen, who previously worked at the National Trust said: "I am delighted to be taking the helm of the Mary Rose Trust to guide it through the next phase of development. Having visited as a teenager shortly after the ship was first raised, I have followed the Mary Rose story with interest over the past 30 years. I am very much looking forward to joining the Trust in September and to working with the team to ensure the next exciting chapter in this remarkable project is successfully delivered."
The Mary Rose Museum at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard has won multiple awards. Since opening in 2013 the new Mary Rose Museum has welcomed over 980,000 visitors.
City's rich history in line for top award
The Mary Rose museum is so much more than one of the most important pieces of Tudor History - it's the creation of a brand new building that's generating as much attention as the ship itself.
The unique boat shaped black structure creates a striking silhouette in Portsmouth Dockyard - and has pushed the boundaries of 21st century architecture.
As a finalist in this year's RIBA awards it's received praise from around the world - an incredible home for one of the country's greatest treasures. Stacey Poole has been to meet those behind the design.
Mary Rose Museum to welcome 500,000th visitor
The number of visitors to the Mary Rose Museum in Portsmouth is expected to hit the half a million mark today. The museum which is based at the historic dockyard opened in May last year.
The five hundred thousandth visitor will be greeted on arrival and offered a behind the scenes look at the collection.
Village museum joins Mary Rose in battle for art prize
A village museum in Sussex will compete with the new Mary Rose exhibition hall in Portsmouth, as well as Tate Britain, to be named the Museum of the Year.
The Ditchling Museum of Art and Craft reopened last September and could win an Art Fund prize worth £100,000.
The result will be announced on July 9 and we spoke to director Hilary Williams about the museum.
Mary Rose exhibition finalist of Museum of Year 2014
Portsmouth's new Mary Rose Museum is one of six national museums to make it to the final of a national museum competition.
The prestigious Art Fund Prize for the Museum of the Year 2014 recognises an exceptional standard of excellence and awards the winner a prize of £100,000 annually.
The Historic Dockyard's nomination comes after the centre welcomed 415,000 visitors since opening.
The museum displays the starboard section of the ship that served Henry VIII for 34 years, before spending over 400 years under the Solent.
Following the painstaking archaeological excavation and recording of the exact location of every find, the project team have been able to recreate the interior of the Mary Rose, where the ship has been reunited with the possessions of the crew and all the material of a Tudor warship.
The six museums which have been selected as finalists for the Art Fund Prize for Museum of the Year are:
Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft, East Sussex; Hayward Gallery, London; The Mary Rose Museum, Portsmouth; Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Norwich; Tate Britain, London; and Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Wakefield.
Mary Rose's new home proves popular
The Mary Rose as she was in her old home, where she was sprayed with water to prevent her timbers from drying out. In May she was re-located to a purpose built museum in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.
Visitors milestone for new museum
The new £27m museum housing the Mary Rose in Hampshire has welcomed its 250,000th visitor just 18 weeks after opening.
The centre, which brought the hull of the Tudor warship together with thousands of its artefacts for the first time, opened on 31st May 2013.

In life, it is important that you are happy and calm at all times. Even when you find yourself in difficult situations, you need to understand how to cope in a way that prevents your stress levels from going through the roof. Taking control of your personal wellbeing is a brilliant way for you to protect your health and happiness. Why make do with a less than satisfactory existence, when it is so easy for you to make positive changes? If you are wondering where to start, you should carefully consider the following seven steps.
Work through any bad habits
The first step is to work through any bad habits. In order to get your life under control, it is vital that you are exercising willpower at every turn. There shouldn't be any areas of your life where you are acting out of compulsion. Instead, you need to be making measured decisions that are certain to benefit your health and wellbeing. This will involve confronting your addiction head on. Have no fear, you don't have to complete this process alone. Why not reach out to The Recovery Village? This is a great way for you to take the first step on a road to a better life. With expert help working in your favor, it won't be long until you start to notice results. Then, once you have completed your recovery program, you will have a far greater chance of keeping your life in order.
Take up regular exercise
You can also keep your life in order by taking up regular exercise. Rather than working out sporadically, you need to get yourself into a routine. Not only will this help you to stay on top of your schedule, but it will also ensure your workouts are as effective as possible. You are more likely to see results if you pace yourself and repeat the same exercise activities over a long period of time. This approach is much better than running yourself into the ground and leaving large gaps between your sessions. If you are struggling to stick to your exercise goals, you might benefit from inviting a loved one to join you. Alternatively, you could sign up for a gym membership or work with a personal trainer.
Go on vacation
Although it is important that you spend your time getting fit and active, it is also important that you step away from your schedule every now and then. You can do this by organizing at least two vacations a year. Don't worry, they don't have to be exotic and expensive. Even a weekend away will still have the desired effect. The most important thing is that you enjoy a change of environment and embrace the opportunity to evaluate your life from an objective standpoint. You should use your vacations as an excuse to think about the kind of life that you are leading and to identify any areas where you want to make a change. You should also use it as an opportunity to relax your mind and body. Hopefully, this will allow you to return home happier, calmer, and determined to do more.
Declutter your living space
Another great step is to declutter your living space. Failing to take this step will make it impossible for you to enjoy a happy and calm existence. If you are going to manage your stress levels, it is vital that you are not surrounded by chaos and clutter. Instead of scrabbling around to find your possessions, you need to make sure that everything you own has a set place. You also need to ensure you are making the most of your available living space and that your furniture is arranged in a suitable fashion. Why not begin the process today by clearing out at least one room of your property? Then, you can sell everything you don't need at a yard sale or donate it to a charitable organization. Finally, you can invest in clever storage solutions that will take all of your remaining items.
Spend more time outdoors
The next step is to endeavor to spend more of your time outdoors. This is another brilliant opportunity for you to lower your stress levels by escaping from the demands of daily life. If you are lucky enough to own a private outside space, you will need to enhance its beauty. You can achieve this by setting up an outdoor dining area, introducing raised beds, or installing a new deck. On the other hand, if you don't have any outside space of your own, you should make an effort to visit your local parks, beaches, and hiking trails. You could even go all out and start walking into your place of work. This might involve a large lifestyle change, but getting out in the open air is an essential part of enjoying life.
Find a greater purpose
You can also start to enjoy your life by finding a greater purpose. If you are determined to take control of your existence, it is essential that you have something worthwhile to work towards. This could be anything from running a marathon to climbing a mountain. You should also try to make your life goal something that benefits the world around you. Perhaps you could get involved in a community project that helps out youngsters in your community. Or, maybe you could sign up for a volunteer experience abroad. Whatever you decide, you will surely benefit from setting your life on a clear path. Instead of floundering from one direction to another, you will instantly feel calmer and happier if you know where you are going.
Limit your use of technology
Finally, you should place a limit on your use of technology. In this digital age, it is likely that your tech plays a huge part in your life. While there are many benefits to using technology, there are also a lot of problems associated with overusing your devices. That is why you should try to put your devices down whenever you are talking to someone or sitting in their company. You should also keep your technology away from the dining table and switch it off at the end of the working day. Why waste your time comparing yourself to social media influencers, reading controversial tweets, or playing stress inducing games, when you could be living in the moment?

Information on
June, 1999, a time where everyone began to heat up with huge potential digital imaging may offer to the photo community, Nikon unleashed a new innovative lense type - a hybrid between Perspective Control (PC) and Micro-Nikkor. Very few people took notice of this launch as this is quite a specialized kind of a new breed and product information was quite scarce other than those conventional press releases via respective Nikon official sites and some localized promotions what can this new lense can offer photographers in exploring new grounds in photography.
A mini photo gallery of Nikon PC Micro-Nikkor 85mm f2.8D telephoto lens

"... This Nikon PC 85mm f2.8 D lens is optically and cosmetically. Virtually like new! Optics front rear and internal are perfect! This lens has the Nikon PC system, (perspective control with reproduction directly to 1:2 ) where it can make adjustments (tilt / shift) to influence depth of field and selective focus precisely -- great for table top product shooting, and nature etc. This lens is a fantastic, unique lens. It has the smallest aperture of any current Nikkor at f45!! Talk about depth of field!!! It is compatible and sharp on both your Nikon AF film SLR as well as the latest Nikon DSLRs, so your investment is safe either way! It comes with both front and rear dust caps, hard case and its Instruction manual ... " - Jeff from Photo Creative@EBAY-
Due to its extremely complex optical movement, and thus it is not designed as an AF-Nikkor lens-type but it does has a CPU embodied within and you can use the lense as a normal lense for metering prior to use some automatic exposure control. However, once the lense is being shift or tilt, data communication will be disengaged and thus, you ought to perform metering prior to adjust for shift or tilt control. The cameras exposure metering and flash control system do not work properly when shifting and/or tilting the lense, or when using an aperture other than the maximum aperture. Shifting and/or tilting the lens to a large degree can cause some vignetting.

From its exterior, it has a strong resemblance of the Hasselblad's short-lived Flex-Body / Arc-series cameras (1996/7). This unique Nikkor lense combines three major designing concept: - A Medium Telephoto with TILT/Shift Control and a Revolving capability. It permits shifting the lense parallel to the film plane as well as tilting the lens axis (shift: ±12,4 mm, tilt: ±8.3mm') in elimination perspective distortion and extension of focus for depth of field control. It is something that is exclusively found only on large format cameras with adjustable front lense plates. But the PC-Micro can actually performs TILT / SHIFT as well as REVOLVING (±90°).
A telephoto native of PC Micro is less distorted from a distance, where you can set up with other artificuial light source with its extended working distance.
Interim photo ONLY. Looking for contributing images to substitute this.
Note: This lens cannot be used with the Nikon PRONEAS series cameras. For older Nikon SLRs, you can use the conventional method to adjust apertures, but for the newer Nikon SLRs that employ with command dial(s), you have to adjust apertures via the preset aperture ring. For camera such as Nikon F5, F100 (or later models such as the Nikon F6 etc.), since autofocusing is not available, you can still use the electronic rangefinder to help determine left/right directions for precise focusing.

So, it performs and sound like more like an improved PC-Nikkor but why calling it a Micro lense then ? Simple, unlike the PC-Nikkor, this PC-Micro can focus all the way from infinity to an impressive reproduction ratio of half-life-size (1:2) at its closest focusing distance of 039m. Further, with its angle of view at 28' 30' , close-up pictures yields a more natural perspective than lense of shorter focal length. Yes. As long as you can live with some slight inconveniences (such as difficult o setup, lack of AF, stop down AE when shift/tilt ), overall, this lense is quite a versatile lense. It allows you to control certain levels in perspective in a picture, also brought a new dimension in microphotography as depth of field can be manipulated by extending or limiting slightly in particular for studio product shooting. So, a wide scope of photographic applications such as architecture, photomicrography, forensic, landscape, flora, scenic, flat field copying or even for portraiture as well as anything to do with a typical medium telephoto lense can offer. Sounds great huh ?
Weighing at 775g, the all-metal structure of this lense projects a very robust, high quality feel. It uses a rather complex optical arrangement of a massive 12 elements in 9 groups, the lense has a filter attachment size at n odd 77mm diameter. You may find it hard to get some original Nikon accessories such as filter for this lense. Even if it has, they are quite expensive. One of the key highlight is its extreme aperture of f/45 - the smallest working f-stop you can find in the entire Nikkor lense family where it is designed for truly full-extended depth of field control. The main issue is the operation of this lense as it has quite a few combinations in shift, tilt and revolving mechanism and may take a seasoned PC-Nikkor owner to handle it more easily in the setup process during shooting.
As the lense comes with a retail price at approx. USD1,200-00 (B&H Photo's suggested prices after rebate 03.2005), it is not entirely a cheap Nikkor, but it has extended a new ground of possibilities for Nikon photographers to explore in this segment where previously, one has to settled for the static use of all the available perspective control lenses in the Nikkor lense group.

Important Notes: When using a camera body with an interchangeable focusing screen feature, Nikon recommends that the use an optional E-type focusing screen with grids type. (E-type focusing screen cannot be used with the Nikon Professional Digital SLR D1-series models.) This lense cannot be attached to the Nikon F5 with DA-30 AE Action Finder attached, F2 Photomic, or Nikon F3AF camera body since they interfere with the lense. This lense cannot be used with the AF PRONEA S, MF Nikon EM camera since both models do not have M (manual) exposure mode.
Below are some of the basic operational sequence in setting up the lense for each of its major functions:
Credit: Mr. Moses Goddard® <email@example.com> who took all the trouble to mail me these content. As I am not entirely familiar at this lense-type, if you have one of these (or good at it), do supply me some INSPIRING captured images and/or HIGH QUALITY images of the lense to beef up the content in this site (please use either the Nikkor's | Message Board | OR | Nikon F5's Message Board | for initial contact as I check it almost daily.
The Shift Function (±12,4mm') In this operation, the Ions is shifted horizontally (or vertically, when the Ions is revolved) parallel to the film plane. By shifting, you can recompose the frame of the shot without moving the camera. This lets you correct the perspective distortion of the subject or exclude unwanted objects from appearing in front of the main subject. Sea pages 72 to 76 for example photographs using the shift function.
1. Place the camera on a tripod and unlock the shift by turning the shift lock-release knob. 2. While looking through the viewfinder, shift the Ions by turning the shift knob. 3. After the lens is shifted the cleared amount. lack the shift by turning the shift lock-release knob.
Note: When the lens is shifted significantly, the periphery of the viewfinder image can sometimes become dim. To counteract this, close the aperture (choose a larger f-number) before shooting. When Shifting the lens, be Careful not to pinch your fingers between the lens and the grip of the camera body. Shifting and/or tilting the lens to d large degree can cause same vignetting but within approximately 1m (3.3 ft.) of the subject, in this case, no vignetting occurs.
The Tilt Function (tilt: ±8.3mm') In this operation, the Ions is tilted up and down (or right and left, when the lens is revolved) to the film plane. By tilting, you can obtain clear focus of the entire subject plane when it is not parallel to the film piano. Sea pages 78 to 80 for the example photographs using the tilt function.
* Note that tilting the lens also changes the viewfinder image. ** After the Ions is tilted to the desired amount, lock the Ions by turning the tilt lock-release knob. Once the lens is tilted, neither the depth-of-fleld scale nor the distance scale on the lens barrel can be used. Shifting and/or tilting the lens to a large degree can cause same vignetting but within approximately 1m (3.3 ft.) of the subject, in such case, no vignetting occurs.
1. Place tire camera on a tripod wit unlock the tilt by turning the tilt lock-release knob. * While looking through the viewfinder, tilt the lens by turning the tilt knob.
Revolving Capability (±90°) This operation rotates the lens. By revolving the lens, the shift function can be changed to operate vertically, and the tilt function can be changed to operate horizontally. The lens can be revolved up to 90 degrees right or left.
1. Place the camera on a tripod and slide the revolving lever to hold the lens. - Before rotating the lens, set the shift and tilt to 0 by rotating the shift and tilt knob. 2. Rotate the lens to the desired angle and take your finger off the revolving lever.
* Click stops are provided in 30' steps to both right and left. If revolving is executed with the lens Shifted, be careful not to pinch your fingers between the lens and grip of the camera body. Shifting and/or tilting the lens to a large degree can cause some vignetting but within approximately I m (3.3 ft.) of the subject, no vignetting occurs. Note:on the shift and tilt lock-release knobs The lens does not look completely by turning the shift and tilt lock-release knobs. This is not a malfunction, Turning the shift and tilt lock-release knobs too tightly to lack the lens or forcibly shifting/tilting the lens when it is locked can damage ft.
Aperture Control This lense operates via a preset aperture method. With this method, you must first set the aperture value via the aperture ring. Then, just prior to shooting, you must stop down the lens to the preset aperture using the aperture stop-down button. With this lens, the maximum aperture can be switched to a selected aperture via Mechanical push-button operation. The selected aperture is then held until the button is pushed again.
Focusing 1. Set the shift and tilt amount to 0 by rotating the shift and tilt knobs. 2. If the aperture is set to stop-down aperture, set the aperture to its maximum by pressing the aperture stop-down button. 3. Focus by rotating the focusing ring
Note that even at maximum aperture, the preset aperture value is displayed on the camera body.
Maximum aperture
Stop-down aperture
Camera's in-focus indicator does not appear properly in the viewfinder when manual focus with electronic rangefinder is performed while shifting or tilting. Focus using the focusing screen's clear matte field. However, when shifting or tilting is not performed, focus can be confirmed using the in-focus indicator . When you shift or tilt after focus is achieved, refocus using the focusing Screen's clear matte field. To confirm the depth of field at set aperture, refer to the depth of field scale on the lens barrel However, when shooting at close distance, correct depth of field cannot be attained from the depth of field scale.
Credit: Image courtesy of Mr. Moses Goddard® <email@example.com>. Image copyright © 2003. All rights reserved.
When the lens is tilted, neither the depth of field scale nor the distance scale can be used. (Both scales can be used when the lens is shifted only).
The aperture value displayed in the LCD panel or viewfinder of the camera may differ from the aperture value set with the lens aperture ring when the focusing ring is rotated. In this case. the aperture value displayed in the LCD panel or viewfinder is the effective aperture.
Determining exposure (using the camera's built-in exposure meter) 1. Set the camera's exposure mode to M (manual). - Set the shift and tilt amount to 0 by rotating the shift and tilt knobs. 2. Press the aperture stop-down button to Set the aperture to Its maximum value. Set the aperture ring to the maximum value f//2.8) as well, and set the shutter speed for correct exposure. When the aperture ring is set to a value other than the maximum (f/2.8), or the lens is shifted or tilted, correct exposure metering and flash exposure metering cannot be conducted. 3. Set the desired aperture by rotating the aperture ring and shift the shutter speed by the same number of steps. 4. Tilt and/or shift the lens, press the aperture stop-down button to stop-down aperture, and then press the shutter release button.
Set the aperture with the lens aperture ring even with a camera that you set aperture with using the command dial. With a camera body with custom setting menu of "aperture setting with lens aperture ring", you do not need to set the option. If the exposure mode is set other then M, incorrect display may appear in the LCD panel and viewfinder.
Note: When the lens is shifted and tilted to its maximum value, exposure compensation of approximately +1 step is required. Determining correct exposure with shift and tilt use requires experience. We recommend that you take a series of test shots until you feet comfortable with the operation.
Determining exposure (with an external exposure meter): 1. Set the camera's exposure mode to M (manual). 2. Tilt or shift the lens. 3. Set the aperture ring to the desired aperture and read the aperture value displayed in the camera's LCD panel. Then, input the aperture value to the external exposure Meter to determine exposure and press the shutter release button.
Note: When the lens is shifted and tilted to its maximum value, exposure compensation of approximately -1 step is required. Stop-down aperture when shooting. Determining correct exposure with shift and tilt use requires experience. We recommend that you take a series of test shots until you feel comfortable with the operation. When you are using a camera that does not have an LCD panel, read the aperture value on the aperture ring, set the value to the external exposure meter, and then determine shutter speed considering the effective aperture. The effective aperture becomes approximately 1 step darker at closest focusing distance.
Lens Care When the lens is not in use, set the tilt and shift amount to "0" since it has many moving parts, and can thus be easily soiled by dust or dirt. Clean the lens surface with a blower brush. To remove dirt and smudges, use a soft, clean cotton cloth or a lens tissue moistened with ethane (alcohol) or lens cleaner. Wipe in a circular motion from the center to outer edge, taking care not to leave smears or to touch other parts of the lens. If you use ether in cleaning the lens, smudges can sometimes appear on the surface of the lens. If this happens. wipe it again with a cotton cloth moistened with alcohol. Never use thinner or benzene to clean the lens.

* To protect the lens surface from dirt or damage, we recommend using an NC filter at all times. The lens hood also helps to protect the lens. * Keep the lens cap in place whenever the lens is not in use. * If you will not use the lens for a long time, protect it from rust and mold by storing it in a cool, dry place. Also, do not store in direct sunlight, and keep it away from naphthalene or camphor. * Be careful not to get the lens wet or drop it in water. If water gets on the lens, this may cause it to malfunction.

6th Annual Street Hockey Tournament in Edmonton
Every year, we shut down the street outside our Edmonton studio and get our game faces on.
DIALOG's 6th Annual Street Hockey Tournament was another smashing success with 11 teams of 3 players, 3 goalies, and dozens of cheering fans on the sidelines.
The family-friendly event brings DIALOGers, their families, and the neighbouring community in downtown Edmonton together to watch our DIALOGers turn into amateur street hockey players and battle it out.
"I think it's a great idea. I love the team building, it brings the whole community together. I wish I worked for them!"
-Cameron Jordan, neighbouring business owner
We work hard, and we play hard. We're so serious about that, we'll shut down the street in rush hour to show it.

Happy birthday Billy!!
Today Billy turns 30! The birthday celebrations begin later today and will go pretty much right through the weekend. We'll be going to a local festival, getting together with friends for dinner and drinks, and seeing family too. Today is also my Sister-in-law Cassie's high school graduation, so it's a pretty major few days!
For now I just wanted to wish my love a happy birthday from me and Ben!
(Here are a few pictures from a little outing we took down to the Pier yesterday. How cute are they?)

Social Emotional Resources
District #12 Resource Page
Area Therapy Referral List
Mental Health
In a publication from Susan Wile Schwarz, June 2009, approximately 20% of adolescents have a diagnosable mental health disorder. To extrapolate that statistic and apply it to Cheyenne Mountain High School, would mean that well over two hundred students in our school will experience some form of a mental health condition while attending CMHS.
Adolescence is a critical period for mental, social, and emotional well being and development. During adolescence, the brain undergoes significant developmental changes, establishing neural pathways and behavior patterns that will last into adulthood.
Because their brains are still developing, adolescents are particularly receptive to the positive influences of youth development strategies, social and emotional learning, and behavioral modeling. But adolescents' developing brains, coupled with hormonal changes, make them more prone to depression and more likely to engage in risky and thrill-seeking behaviors than either younger children or adults. These and other factors underline the importance of meeting the mental, social, and emotional health needs of this age group.
Mental health and social and emotional well being – combined with sexual and reproductive health, violence and unintentional injury, substance use, and nutrition and obesity – form part of a complex web of potential challenges to adolescents' healthy emotional and physical development--a challenge that we must be up for!
Below, you will find a few web sites, and supports for dealing with mental health issues. This is by no means a comprehensive list for dealing with this very important topic. However, it should help you get started down a path toward obtaining strong mental health.

National Institute Health (NIH)
American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP)
Anxiety Disorder Association of America (ADAA)

Drugs & Alcohol
Illicit Drugs
According to the national Institute of Health (NIH) illicit drug use among teens continues at a high rate. NIH attributes this statistic due to the popularity of marijuana and the perceived lack of danger associated with this use. In 2012, 6.5% of 8th graders, 17% of 10th graders, and 22.9% of 12th graders reported using marijuana in the past month--an increase among 10th and 12th graders of 14.2%. NIH does report a decrease in the use of inhalants ( an all time low).
Alcohol use among teens has dropped to historically low levels. In 2012, NIH reported that 3.6% of 8th graders, 14.5% of 10th graders, and 28.1% reported getting drunk in the past month.
Cigarette use among teens has dropped to historically low levels. Cigarette smoking in high-school students peaked in 1996-1997 and has declined continually since. In contrast, marijuana use has been rising in recent years.
These are both good and alarming statistics. As we educate our Cheyenne Mountain community and students, we believe that it is prudent to address the trends of the day and provide support up to date information and support. The links below should aide you in process as well.
Military Support
In the attached link above, you will find a vast amount of thoughts and resources to aide you from the Military Child Education Coalition. This resource might be helpful to military families, but also it is a great resource for teachers, friends, family or classmates as they consider how to help a family who is living through military life.
Good Books for Parents
Raising teenager's can sometimes be challenging, humbling and often an amazing experience. Below, we have included a resource of helpful reads that may make your job a little easier. We hope that you might find a few of these books useful. Additionally, the counseling office has books on parenting in our office. Feel free to stop in and check out a book or two.

Four Bristol musicians combining Neo-Soul Down Tempo & Jazz. Formed in 2016, all four members of We Are Leif are established jazz musicians, they invite the audience into moments of exciting improvisational flights within the narrative of the song as a key component to their live performance.
Led by the songwriting team of vocalist Louise Victoria and drummer, Mark Whitlam, We Are Leif deftly span the balance of jazz sensibilities. Louise's voice sits comfortable alongside the company of Gretchen Parlato and Becca Stevens. Musically there are nods in the direction of Erykah Badu and Jill Scott whilst retaining a classic Bristol sound, steeped in the history of bands like Portishead, Massive Attack and Lamb.
Their debut album Breathe was released to a sell out audience at London's Pizza Express Live jazz club in September 2018, having also received extensive airplay on Jazz FM and BBC6 Music Introducing… Over the past two years, they have been invited to play major jazz festivals in the UK including Cheltenham, Manchester and London Jazz Festival and appeared at So What's Next? festival in The Netherlands.
'Soulful business from We Are Leif … a particular favourite of mine … look out for them!' Tony Minvielle, Jazz FM
'Well judged, well executed and based on some very accomplished songwriting, this is a fantastic slice of down-beat music for upbeat people' Tap The Feed

Why should George Osborne be made editor of the London Evening Standard?
George Osborne was born in London, and went to school there. He has been an MP for Tatton in Cheshire since 2001 and while chancellor of the exchequer, and since he left office, he championed the idea of a "Northern Powerhouse" - big English cities such as Manchester, Sheffield and Leeds being a focus for economic development. But on accepting the editor's job, he said there was no contradiction. He said:
I remain passionate about the Northern Powerhouse and will continue to promote that cause. Right from the first speech I gave about the North of England, I've said that London needs a successful north and the north benefits from its links to a global city like London. It's not a zero-sum game, but quite the opposite.
The paper's owner Evgeny Lebedev said Osborne's "political viewpoint – socially liberal and economically pragmatic – closely matches that of many of our readers... George is London through and through".
What is the current thinking about when interest rates in the UK will go up?
What kind of Brexit, hard or soft, does the chancellor of the exchequer Philip Hammond want?

"Blowing A Fuse"-A New Lesson In Horse Trailer Lighting
Posted by Allyson Hall on
As a mother, wife, and business owner, "Blowing a fuse" occurs occasionally throughout my many duties. This week, we have been preparing our pony for an upcoming horse show at HITS (Horse Shows in the Sun) in Ocala, Florida. We needed to trailer our pony to the local riding lesson barn this week for a practice lesson before the show.
When I hooked up the horse trailer, I went through my normal horse trailer hook up routine. Attached the trailer to the ball, fasten all wires, attach all cables, check the tires, and check the trailer lights. I noticed that my running lights on the trailer were not working with my truck lights on. The turning signal and break lights worked, but no running lights. I took a risk and shipped the pony, during the day, to the local barn. After I dropped the pony off, I took my horse trailer to the local trailer business in my area. Allen's Trailers does an excellent job working on all types of trailers and seem to know how to fix just about anything. I dropped the trailer off and asked them to service the trailer lights, tires, and axles. Today, I picked up the trailer and started with my horse trailer hook up routine. Attach the trailer to the ball, connect the chains, cables, and check the lights. I turned the truck lights on, no "sign of light" with the horse trailer running lights. A small sense of worry kicks in while thinking "how can we fix these lights?" Immediately, the owner of the business, asked for my truck manual. He opened the hood and went straight to the fuse box. Ford Fuse #28, a 25-amp fuse, was blown. This blown fuse is so tiny but caused a ridiculous big problem. We contacted the local auto parts store down the street to see if they had the microchip size fuse in stock. 15 minutes and $9.62 dollars later, the fuse is replaced. Truck lights on and voila! The horse trailer running lights lite up like a Christmas tree. Saved by the fuse! At age 43, I have now experienced "Blowing a #28 fuse." The show must go on……

'Doctor Who' thing of the day: crack in the universe, for real (and another in my ceiling)
British online newspaper The Daily Dust (which is now my favorite online news source, because it is recommended that one consumes it "with a nice hot cup of tea and a chocolate Hob-Nob") notes that NASA has discovered an absolutely for-real crack in the universe…
…or at least the "core of a thick, sooty cloud large enough to swallow dozens of solar systems [that] may be harboring beastly stars in the process of forming." Which sounds menacing enough, actually.
And this is the ceiling directly above my desk, where I sit and work all the freakin' time:
(My graphic-designer brother Ken, who posts comments here as one of the Kens, added the glow. But it's creepy enough without the glow, frankly, because one of these days, I'm gonna get bonked in the head with falling paint chips.)
For comparison:

THEY call themselves pyjamahideen. Instead of galloping off to fight holy wars, they stay at home, meaning, often as not, in their parents' houses, and clatter about computer keyboards. Their activity is not as explosive as the self-styled jihadists who trouble regimes in the region, and they come in all stripes, secular liberal as well as radical Islamist. But like Gulliver's Lilliputians, youthful denizens of the internet are chipping away at the overweening dominance of Arab governments.
Egypt | Bloggers may be the real opposition | Economist.com.
"Workers of the world, unite", is a rallying cry of socialism. Despite the fate of socialism, it called for power to the powerless masses. Today the powerless masses in the Arab world are making their voice heard in spite of governments' clamp down. Bloggers unite! Let it be our rallying cry.

Project Description
Demi Rose Mawby
Laser Eye Surgery patient
It's been a crazy two years for Demi Rose Mawby who was first catapulted into the spotlight in 2016 at the age of 21 when she was spotted with Kylie Jenner's ex Tyga, 28.
Since then, the birthday girl has firmly established a name in her own right thanks to her sizzling lingerie snaps.
Regularly flooding the official Demi Rose Mawby Instagram page with blisteringly-hot pics, the gorgeous glamour model who has posed for the likes of FHM and Zoo has netted an impressive following.
The Birmingham-born beauty now boasts an impressive 6.6 million followers on the social media platform and she regularly receives 100s of 1000s of likes for her photos.
Demi talks about her laser eye surgery experience.
Speaking before the surgery, Demi said:
"I actually switched off from learning at school because I hated wearing my glasses.
It's going to make the biggest difference in my life. At my consultation, they explained the procedure I felt more at ease and ready for it. The surgery didn't last long at all and after 24 hours could already see the benefits.
My vision is now perfect and it's amazing to no longer be short sighted. I don't need to worry about getting dry eyes from wearing contact lenses and I can go on a night out feeling much more confident.
It will also make modelling shoots so much easier. Wearing contact lenses and going through different weather changes or getting sand in my eyes could ruin the whole shoot."
After an initial consultation, Demi had her treatment at the Optical Express clinic on Harley Street, London. After the surgery, Demi took to Twitter and Instagram to tell her followers all about her recent surgery.
From just one store, since Optical Express opened in 1991 to more than 100 clinics, Optical Express have become the UK's only complete eye care provider.
Success is down to the fact that Optical Express built the company around patients, investing in the latest state-of-the-art optical technology and employing the most experienced surgeons and optometrists so that clinics are centres of excellence. Every member of each team is committed to delivering an outstanding clinical experience, each and every time.

It is quite the topic here in the studio; to gray or not to gray. For those of us who have voluntarily or involuntarily chosen to let our hair go that way, I want to offer encouragement. Gray is a magical color because it makes every other color next to it look better.
Photographers know this. Rolls of neutral gray back-drop paper are manufactured to set off still-life objects.
Graphic artists know this. The gray-scale in computer design software points to a 50% gray as the perfect tone for balance.
And nature knows this. Ever wonder why colorful autumn leaves look so intense on an overcast day? Or why an aging face looks so bright? It is that frame of gray that points out and showcases the color it surrounds.
This colorless color is the combination of all colors so it harmonizes with every color. Softened with light, it visually gives rest to the optic nerves so color can be perceived without distraction and helps to delineate form.
Color case in point; this spring's most popular color in fashion "rose quartz". Here it is all alone…pink but sort of flat looking.Here it is with a little gray…And with a lot of gray…now that looks pink, don't you think? Notice here that the photographer choose a gray background to photograph against …And in this photo the stylist accessorized with gray to punch up the soft tone of pink.
NOTE: I just created my own version of rose quartz here in the studio for lips…Tinted Sheer lip color in this all-natural lip-conditioning formula of plant oils and waxes plus loads of vitamin E keeps lips soft. $15.
Gray eye shadow teams well with soft lips and helps to shape the eye by letting its color be the focus in the picture. Because gray has red, yellow and blue in it, grays vary in tonation so there is a perfect shade for each skin color and eye color. Brownish gray, purpley gray, blue gray, silvery gray…want to know which shade is your gray? Book an appointment. email@example.com
So when the gray hair starts to come in, consider that this is a gift that nature gives us. It softens the changes in our skin color, showcases our eyes and blurs any wisdom lines. Love, Jane
Good skincare helps stimulate blood flow and helps your skin to renew and enlivens its color. Can I help you with a skincare routine or a facial? Can I help you with a new look at make-up? Or can I simply hold your hand if you decide to go gray. Let me know ….please reply or comment.

Why Choose a Professional Photographer?
Some Amateurs once in a while have the assets to create quality prints. The nature of the prints is regularly seriously corrupted by the novice when it comes delivering vast quantities of prints. Proficient picture takers prepare the computerized pictures in expert labs that build up every individual introduction for streamlined items. Amid this procedure, hues are changed, levels are balanced, and the materials utilized for printing are delivered to last. Corrosive free materials and chronicle quality papers are the sorts of advantages that expert handling conveys to the table.
Creative respectability may not be something that bounced to mind when a considerable lot of us consider fruitful photography. Be that as it may, when executed effectively, the subject of a photo is flawlessly converged with stylish bid. The most alluring photos are those that consider imaginative components, for example, musicality, creation, and adjust. Countless picture takers got their preparation through photography programs that are a piece of a human sciences degree.
At long last, there is the component of time and one's dedication to the specialty. A large portion of us don't have room schedule-wise fundamental for getting great, reproducible results. This impediment is the thing that frequently makes individuals depend on stock symbolism or unremarkable shots. Since the expert picture taker relies on upon their outcomes to keep up their expert notoriety, they are ready and ready to invest the energy important to make photographs that catch life taking care of business.
