Great day for a Glacier Cruise
... and interesting conversations along with exciting scenery!
We left Whittier after the cruise and camped at Wiiliwaw CG. A beautiful and magnificent location! We came here on the recommendation of Linda and Roger, who we meet when camping in Sarah Palin's backyard (Wassilla). Linda and Roger also recommend we go to the Begich Bogg Visitor center.
On a cliff overlooking Cook Inlet
We arrived in Kenai with scattered sunshine and our campsite is on a bluff overlooking the mouth of the Kenai River that flows into Cook Inlet. Kenai is the largest city on the Kenai peninsula. We are staying here a few days.
We arrived at low tide with high tide around 7 pm. If there are Beluga Whales to see, it will be a couple hours before ...
Day 1
The day started off pretty crazy when all of us woke up to a moose and black bear in our yard. We were in awe at the sight of the two animals. Today we went bear watching and fishing. The family left at 6 in the morning and after 3 hours of scenic driving we arrived at the plane station. Our family took a floater plane for a half hour ride through mountains and over glaciers to the flat bottom boats. The bear area was extremely crowded with ...
Day II Fishing on the Kenai
Another roll out in early morning . . . with breakfast at Sal's Alaskan Diner! BTW, nearly every restaurant and retail establishment we have encountered in Alaska has a HELP WANTED sign on the door. Fred Meyer (a large retail operation, groceries, electronics, and food) has a huge banner on it . . . NOW HIRING!
We were with a different guide this morning, Al, and two ...
A little fishing & a little hiking in the sunshine
Wayne got up this morning and walked over to the landing where we saw all the fishing going on the last couple days. It was only about a block from the camping spot we had so very convenient. I noticed when I got up that he hadn't eaten breakfast so figured he must not plan on staying very long. Wayne does not skip meals ever! However, I asked him when I went over if I should bring him something and he said he was okay for ...

We live in Fairbanks and have traveled to Wasilla frequently over the years , always staying in one of the hotels there. Lake Lucille Bed and Breakfast is much, much nicer, and we will definitely stay there again. It was roomy, comfortable, and convenient. The breakfast was much nicer than I had expected. We were able to watch the Olympics while there, and our teenage girls were very happy with the wifi.

Stayed for a week last summer and long to return. So beautiful. Clean. Did not take advantage of the breakfast....too early for me, but I could smell the wonderful bacon etc. Really enjoyed the quiet late evenings by the lake and watching the loons, ducks etc. What a wonderful place to live.

Westminster Abbey with the Fuji X100S & X-Pro1 | Olaf Sztaba
In our last blog entry, "Photography is easy. Really?" we wrote about the importance of concentrating on the art of crafting an image. Nowadays it doesn't come easily because the constant need (and in some cases addiction) to be connected doesn't allow our minds to calm down and settle on ONE task. However, there are some places where quietness comes naturally, concentration comes easily and your artistic inner self can show itself without any outside disruptions. For me, Westminster Abbey in Mission, BC is one such place. I find that a stunning location and beautiful grounds always calm me down. They allow me to put aside all the noise and just wander around with my camera. There's no pressure, no purpose, no distractions! I have visited this place many times and each time I encountered stunning views and different conditions which created a magnificent mood. All images were shot with the Fuji X100S and Fuji X-Pro1 with XF 14mm F2.8 and XF 60mm F2.4. Processed in Iridient Developer and NIK Silver Pro……

For my girlfriend (who loves mushrooms I must add) I decided to create something "special". So, I thought to myself, why not take some photos of her favourite thing. I don't own studio light or a studio style background, to create the photographs I would have to rely on natural light and a little bit of creativity. My studio was basically a cardboard box, painted black inside and on the flaps to diffuse the natural light a little. All the light is coming from the window behind. The Fujifilm X-Pro 1 was then tripod mounted and put into Macro mode, sadly I do not own the Fujifilm 60mm macro lens……

Kunst gegen Bares – A night at the Filmcasino Munich |
Andreas Kandsberger
For my recent job – a shooting at the Filmcasino Munich – I decided to take the Fuji X-Pro1 as my only camera. No DSLR back up, so I was a little nervous how the camera will perform. I knew that the conditions would be very challenging, so I only took my fast primes (the FUJINON XF 35mm 1.4 and the XF 60mm 2.4) with me. As the show begun, pretty soon it was clear that there was no chance to shoot much lower than ISO 2500. For this kind of job flash is no really a opportunity because it will ruin most of the low light atmosphere. So let´s have a look at the pictures. You must click on them to enlarge. One last word to focusing: Most of the pictures were taken using autofocus. And yes, sometimes it was hard to focus at all – especially with the XF 60mm. But the XF 35mm lens really was a joy to use (make sure you get the latest firmware for camera end lens!)……

In Photo : Avalon Guitars | David Cleland
Learning to play guitar is road travelled by many but mastered by only a select few. It is an enduring journey where an obsession with the fine detail is the only route to success. Like mastering playing the guitar the actual construction of an acoustic guitar is an art form in its own right. Unlike playing the instrument few learn how to make a guitar and fewer still master the craft. Avalon Guitars in Newtownards is home to some of the finest guitar luthiers in the world, this bold statement isn't mine but the endorsement of a number of the world's best guitar players. I have been visiting the Avalon guitar factory for over twenty years and the same faces remain, masters of the fine detail they are the unseen artists behind many of the best guitarists and singer songwriters…..
Camera wise I started jumping between the X-Pro1 with 35mm lens and the X-E1 equipped with the 60mm macro. I was shooting wide open (f/1.4 and f/2.4 respectively) in an attempt to create focal points to each image. I was shooting RAW and converting each image to mono to draw out the detail of the woodgrain.

Man folgt einer kleinen, rau asphaltierten Straße. Vorbei am verlassenen Sportplatz, wo sich noch immer die Hitze des Tages staut. Auf der Fahrt Richtung Süden findet das Auge automatisch den Weg zu der am Horizont verlaufenden Bergkette. Die Landschaft hier oberhalb des Ortes wirkt schon beinahe mediterran. Nur sind es statt Weinreben und Olivenbäumen, hier Maisfelder und Gemüseäcker, die das Landschaftsbild prägen. Aber die Sonne macht an diesem Tag keinen Unterschied.

See more pictures on www.robertpauljansen.com
I recently posed this question to colleagues because I have been experiencing the benefits of shooting wide open with one lens and the trials of relying on the variable aperture of the zoom lens. These experiences have led to results with which I'm really happy (portraits shot with the 60mm) and an unhappy photographer (me with the 18-55mm). Let me back up a bit. When the X-Pro 1 arrived on the scene last year, I purchased the three available prime lenses. For what I use them for, I have been very happy with all three. Of the three, the 60mm lens has been used far less than the 18mm and 35mm lenses, restricted to portraits, some close up work and more portraits. That said, despite the focusing quirks of the lens, the results have been very good and recently, as I have better understood how to use it, the results have been outstanding. Having used all three lenses on the X-Pro 1 for work and freelance gigs, plus the X100 on occasion, I was feeling that I needed/wanted to have the 18-55mm f/2.8-4.0 zoom lens to shoot events. The zoom simplifies, to one way of thinking, lens and camera choice and since I shoot with flash indoors and don't have to worry about a fast aperture shooting outside, you would think that this is the ideal event lens. Well, I'm not so sure about that. Earlier this week, I shot an indoor event, an awards dinner and presentation for a freelance client. The end result was that the photos turned out well and I rarely missed a shot, but it wasn't the best shooting experience. And I have to take a good portion of the responsibility for the poor experience part. I will give all of the credit for the good shot results to the lens and camera. So what went wrong you ask? Since I shoot with primes most of the time, using the zoom complicated things. It did give more reach or a wider field of view than with a prime, but I felt like a klutz most of the time. Also, the variable aperture is a pain. Tempting as it might be to set the lens to f/2.8 at the wide end and let the lens stop down as I zoomed to the 55mm end of things, this plays havoc with exposure when I'm shooting with a non-TTL flash. Instead, I set the aperture between f/4 and f/5.6 and left it there, no matter which zoom range I was in. Again, this worked well and I have no complaints with the results, except for those rare occasions when the ambient light was right and I switched off the flash and tried to shoot as wide open as I could. Then, the ISO zoomed to uncomfortable levels, which wouldn't have happened if the lens had a constant aperture of at least f/2.8 or better. Couple this with needing to shoot with the EVF most of the time rather than the OVF and using Auto Focus instead of Automated Manual Focus, which is my preference, it was a frustrating night of shooting. Poor me you say? Well you might. The AF worked as well as can be expected of any lens in the dim light of the event, but it wasn't street fast, which is what I wanted this to be. It wasn't rangefinder fast. So, therein lies the problem. The 18-55mm lens is a really good all around performer (I have made some gorgeous long exposures with it) but not as easy for me to use. There, let me put it this way, the problem is really me and I know it……

Fujinon XF 60mm macro nature photography review | Gergely Nagy
I am a happy owner of a Fuji 60mm XF macro lens for a month by now. Here I will write down the most common experiences what I had with it.
All of these pictures what you see, are the original jpegs. Just right from the fuji X-E1.
Lets start with the bad news. The autofocus is far from good. It is slow, and sometimes it has difficulties to find the focus even in normal light. It can struggle really hard. I found for the best solution if I switch to manual mode. Like that I can focus with the AE-L/AF-L button, and in the same time I can override manually. It worked quite well like this. The manual focus is really strange… But not as terrible as the people write it on forums. (Except when you need to focus from the closest of the fairest distance. That is awful.)
Before it I used a 105mm Vr Nikkor, so I can make some comparison….
It is a very well built, tough little lens. With very good sharpness and details. The autofocus sometimes is a pain, but in manual focus it's working well. Mostly when you use it for close subjects. (And for what else would you use a macro lens? By the way, it wouldn't be bad for portraits too. I will use, I am sure!) Actually the use of the manual focus and the electronic viewfinder together, was absolutely amazing for macro photography. I think, we will work very well together with this lens.

Nov 16, 2010Another "concept" album from Saddle Creek's other workhorse Tim Kasher. It has been evident for over a decade that once the Cursive and Good Life front man starts obsessing over an idea, he inflates it into a full scale arsenal on each album he puts out. Those who say this album is repetitive, well they are right, but how is that different from any of the past albums this man has released? The problem with this one is it seems a little half cooked at times and could have been fleshed out a bit more. But, the arrangements are at times gorgeous and when he gets it right, he really gets it right ("No Fireworks").… Expand
Nov 14, 2011I'm a fan of Tim Kasher's work from the band's Cursive and The Good Life, the lyrics are deep and I find very relatable. This album although not close to his best work, has some good songs worth listening too. The theme is similar to what has been sung before but there is passion and some moments that come alive. Probably the most difficult part of the album's lyrics are the lack of romance and pessimism, although life can suck its nice still to long and desire for something more or different but the songs have some reflective depth nonetheless. Recommended.… Expand
Dec 22, 2010In small doses, it's insightful and infectious, but after a whole album's worth of introspection Kasher starts to sound like a bit of a whinge bag. [Jan 2011, p.138]
Dec 22, 2010So far into his career this record might easily be overlooked, yet given the chance it's both a moving and rewarding listen.
Dec 21, 2010This is considerably more poppy than what you'd expect from Cursive, and it's clear: Kasher has never been content with playing it safe.

Volkswagen to invest EUR 85.6B in new models, technologies over five years
The Volkswagen Group will invest a total of EUR 85.6B in new models, innovative technologies and its global presence in its Automotive Division over the coming five years. Around two-thirds of the total investment amount will flow into increasingly efficient vehicles, drives and more environmentally friendly production. This is the result of the Group's investment planning for 2015 to 2019 discussed by the Supervisory Board of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft at its meeting. "We will continue to invest in the future to become the leading automotive group in both ecological and economic terms – with the best and most sustainable products", said Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, Chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, in Wolfsburg. "Development costs will remain high in the future as a result of high innovation pressure and increasing demands on the automotive industry from CO2 legislation. As a Group, we have the expertise and financial strength to continue to extend our technology leadership and to reach our goals for 2018." Investments in property, plant and equipment, investment property and intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs in the Automotive Division will amount to EUR 64.3B across the planning horizon as a whole, on a level with the planning approved in the previous year for the period from 2014 to 2018. In addition to spending on capex, the plans also include capitalized development costs of EUR 21.9 billion and proceeds from asset disposals of EUR 0.6B, net of investments in financial assets. The Group will spend most of the total capex in the Automotive Division on modernizing and extending the product range for all its brands.

Hi: 7° Lo:1°
By Tim Clarke Wednesday 31 October 2012 Updated: 02/11 13:56
RED poppies rained down from the sky as the Last Post rang out to mark the launch of this autumn's Poppy Appeal in Worcestershire.
A large crowd of people gathered outside Worcester Guildhall on Saturday (October 27) to join those including dignitaries, veterans, cadets and Royal British Legion officials for a short but poignant ceremony.
Among those present was former Worcester soldier Tom Neathway who lost both his legs and an arm in an explosion while on a tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2008.
Hundreds of poppies were released from the top floor of the Guildhall as a bugler sounded the Last Post and a two minute silence was observed in remembrance of those killed in conflict.
RBL County chairman Tony Hartley-Woolley said: "It was lovely to see people come out and support us.
"Despite all the newer ex-service charities that have started in the last few years we still have huge support for the Poppy Appeal and we have been very fortunate to get something in the region of a nine to ten per cent increase in donations each year in Worcestershire.
"That is tremendous when you consider there has been a recession and so many people are struggling for money."
Mr Hartley-Woolley said they hoped to raise as much as £600,000 in the county this autumn to help support ex-servicemen and women.

I'm new, so anxious for a good sign

I'm new, so anxious for a good sign
|Wed, 08-13-2003 - 9:16am
Well I'm 8w 3d now. I had a terrible m/c in April at 14w with mini labor and hospital and all that. I didn't have my first u/s until 13w last time ( because I was measuring small) and they couldn't find the baby, just the gestational sac. It's so strange, my body must have been really fooled. What I'm worried about right now is how to get some "proof" from my doctor that there is a baby there this time. My first appt is on Friday and I will be 8w 5d. I've been told that I might not be able to get an u/s unless there's some problem like bleeding. I would appreciate anyone's ideas a lot!
|Wed, 08-13-2003 - 12:31pm
Make your history known first of all. Ask for an u/s and honestly if you're told no I'd look for a new ob! I m/c in Jan the same way as you told my Dr about it(I moved so had to have new dr)and had a u/s at first visit at 5 wks w/no problems. remember the dr is for you and if they aren't doing what you want and need find someone who will!!!!

Phoronix Test Suite 1.6.0 "Tydal" Beta 2
Published on 02 January 2009 01:14 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
Comment On This Article
As what will likely be the last development release in the 1.6 "Tydal" series, Beta 2 has now been made available. Among the changes to pts-core are a few hardware and software detection improvements, test installation logs are now archived within the test installation directory, an install-all-dependencies option has been added, and there is now support for reading the CPU usage of individual processing cores (and is also supported through the system_monitor module).
When it comes to the tests, a build-mysql test profile has been added that will time the build of MySQL 5.1. A graphics-magick test profile has also been added that tests various GraphicsMagick functions. Due to its use of OpenMP, the graphics-magick test profile is great for multi-core environments. The specviewperf10 test profile for SPECViewPerf10 has also been updated. With suites, a system-disk test suite has been added.
The bilde_renderer drawing API that's used to generate the result graphs has also received several improvements. Operations for draw_polygon() and draw_ellipse() have been added to the API and have been implemented within the available renderers. An experimental renderer has also been added to render the graphs to an Adobe Flash / SWF file. This SWF rendering is done using the Ming library. The bilde_renderer API has been fully implemented with SWF, but there is currently an odd alignment bug causing some drawing objects to be offset. A JPEG renderer has also been added for those that prefer to use JPEG files instead of PNG as the default format.
Besides the above mentioned work there is quite a few other changes too. The Phoronix Test Suite 1.6.0 Beta 2 change-log is listed below. The final release of Phoronix Test Suite 1.6.0 "Tydal" will likely come later this month. To download the latest development release visit

Google CEO Eric Schmidt is all over Microsoft -- but not as in "the Fat Lady sings."
He foresees Microsoft breaking the Internet: not crushing competitors -- literally obliterating the Internet. Schmidt's "not aware" of a Google proposal to buy the New York Times but "doesn't rule anything out."
Russ Mitchell's Portfolio interview with Google CEO Eric Schmidt is a must-read.
Read it now -- or this weekend -- before you arrive in NYC for SES -- or follow the conference via live blogging and video interviews.
Schmidt says that the "concentration of Microsoft's resources and its history, combined with the very large share that it would have in certain applications—like instant messaging and email—that could be used essentially to break the internet and diminish choice."
The entire April issue will be online Monday -- the first day of Search Engine Strategies New York -- with Portfolio magazine on newsstands in New York on Wednesday, April 19th -- day 3 of SES New York.
Portfolio blogger Kevin Maney says "Google has won" -- except Eric Schmidt doesn't know it.

5 Things To Know After Seahawks Win Super Bowl
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Pete Carroll stood in the center of the locker room and gathered his Seattle Seahawks around him. They were Super Bowl champions, and they had the Lombardi Trophy after routing the Denver Broncos 43-8 on Sunday night.
Keidel: Manning's Manifest Destiny?
What will matter most? The fact that Seattle has no players with Super Bowl experience, or their youth and speed and top-ranked defense? Or will the game be won by Denver's suddenly stout rush defense and Peyton Manning's blessed right arm?
Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer Previews The Superbowl
Sporting News' NFL writer Vinnie Iyer joined Frank and Yarbs to preview the Superbow. Is is going to be the Seattle Defense that prevails or the Denver Offense?

Owner Of Pro Football Reference, FootballGuys.Com Staffer and NY Times freelance writer Chase Stuart Previews The Super Bowl. Can Peyton win his 2nd or will it be Russell Wilson and the Seahawks?
Keidel: Who's Manning The Helm Better Than Peyton?
It's not as toxic a topic as the New York/New Jersey border war, or as socially inflamed as the Richard Sherman saga. But, in a strictly sporting sense, it really is the topic du jour. If he wins Sunday's Super Bowl, is Peyton Manning the greatest quarterback in NFL history?
Seattle's Defense To Face The Most Elite Offense In Recent History
While these two teams did play each other during pre-season, it's safe to say that only a fool would look at that game footage in August for an inside edge.
Last Ride? No Plans To Retire For Broncos' Manning
JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) — Peyton Manning would love to go out a champion. Just, not yet.

Which Has MORE Potassium?
by Fitness 13 Reactions 12 Shares Print
We've all heard that potassium is good for us. It's an essential mineral that is necessary for muscle function, the transmission of nerve impulses and for carbohydrate and protein metabolism.
Your RDI of potassium is 4,200mg, so let's test your knowledge to make sure you're getting enough.

Anonymous is correct - this web page is flat-out WRONG. Google any other REPUTABLE nutrition site and you'll find a medium-sized baked potato with skin always has around 800-1,000 mg of potassium. It's a shame this is one of the first URLs people find on Google, but if people are careful, they will find every other legitimate site contradicts this page's false "data."
4 years
This information is incorrect. A medium-sized baked potato with the skin has over 900 mg of potassium. While some avocados have slightly more potassium than a baked potato, some have slightly less depending on the variety and size. Haas avocados, the most popular variety in the US, have much less potassium, because they are so small compared to most other varieties.
