My favorite post was the one on the Minolta Miniflex (http://www.kehblog.com/2010/06/minolta-miniflex.html) I thought it was a great little feature on a unique item. Of course, I'm one of those junkies who loves unique old cameras, so it's right up my alley!ReplyDelete
Congrats on the 6 months!
I've been trying to cut back on the number of blogs I read, but not this one. The whole KEHblog website has been a valuable resource so it's tough to pick one post that has been my favorite. Instead, I'll say that my favorite resource is putting the PDF's up on the website -- like the roadshow and the "gone green" catalog. Keep up the great work!ReplyDelete

Great site. I just posted the following tweet about the current contest...ReplyDelete
Keh Camera Blog is giving away $50 http://bit.ly/boDvop #contest #photography
Favorite post.. I would have to say it's 'Reasons to Buy Used'. As much as I love digital, I still find myself drawn to the equipment I wanted at a time in my life when I was unable to afford it.
I personally not have purchased anything from KEH.com but I have heard it is the place to go to buy used equipment. I definitely have my eye out on a few items so I am sure I will be purchasing from KEH in the future.ReplyDelete
As a strobist, my favourite post has been about flash and lighting. Especially the tips about the PC cords.ReplyDelete
I'm hoping to see more of this as I know a lot of the younger kids on here will appreciate it.
Keep up the good work!
I like "jumping off for creative lighting". It's very informative, and I like the example photo.ReplyDelete
Alright, here's my second entry.ReplyDelete
Here's my tweet:
My favorite post is the one about Vintage Ads (http://www.kehblog.com/2010/05/vintage-ads-summer-part-1.html). I like looking through these old ads and seeing how things have changed since then.ReplyDelete
I've learned that used equipment is perfectly fine and that KEH is the best place to buy it.
I like the vintage ads posts as well.ReplyDelete
I've really enjoyed the blog, especially the links posts. One of my favorite posts was Filters 101, http://www.kehblog.com/2010/03/filters-101.html.ReplyDelete
I like the behind the scenes photos - seeing a repair desk was interesting.ReplyDelete
I liked the "tips for keeping gear clean" post:ReplyDelete
Honestly I think you've got a good mix on this blog of general photography info, gear, tips, and "behind the scenes at KEH," all of which I enjoy.
http://www.kehblog.com/2010/04/vintage-camera-ads-spring.html Was my fave post, just looking back from there to now, nothing has changed just the brands and the features.ReplyDelete
john @ levelredphotography.com
Found your site searching for my first camera. Love the large selection of used.ReplyDelete
What has your favorite post been?ReplyDelete
Brief history + old photos
It was really interesting to see what the layout is. Maybe you could run a contest and the winner gets a tour of the warehouse?? That would be incredible to see all that gear in one place!

My favorite blog post is one that is very informational for me as I prepare myself to make my first purchase on Keh!ReplyDelete
Here is my Twitter update: http://twitter.com/photosbyrowell/status/16717640404
My favorite post has been "Reasons to Buy Used". I am in the search of buying a used DSLR and a friend recommended me to this site. I have learned that buying a used DSLR is the way to go for me.

I liked the post about how you grade equipment. I plan to upgrade equipment soon!ReplyDelete
My favorite posts are the "behind the scenes" series - shocking, I know! :) If I had to pick one.... I think the most recent one - "Day of a Repair Clerk" (http://www.kehblog.com/2010/06/day-of-repair-clerk.html). It has the most personality!ReplyDelete
Clever way to gather feedback & exposure btw!
Also, I tweeted! http://twitter.com/reidprReplyDelete

Your blog is fun which is great because photography is fun, too! Too many blogs and sites are far too serious and bogged (blogged) down by too much techie stuff that takes away from the magic of photography. I came across your site very recently on the hunt for good, used gear and am impressed by the amount of cool stuff for sale (not to mention the grading chart) as well as the cool stuff to read. Me thinks I might need a mini digital camera or a Zeiss Ikon with blue leather! So fav posts so far have been the unique cameras as well, vintage posters as well as the behind-the-scenes.ReplyDelete

My favorite post?ReplyDelete
Well, considering I just found your awesome blog, (and will be bookmarking it) I'd have to say the "Reasons to buy used" http://www.kehblog.com/2010/06/reasons-to-buy-used.html definitely raised an eyebrow.
I never realized that manufacturer's recalls were 2%! The post was super informative and has persuaded me to buy more used equipment.
I have only purchased new lenses from KEH in the past, but I've decided today to sell a few of my pieces and to buy a used lens that I've been pining away for.
One last thing, you guys are so extremely pleasant and actually "fun" to deal with over the phone and in person... not like one of your competitors. KEH rules. Thanks for not being snobby.
Oh, and I'm so blogging about your site.
Fave post.....Simple Table Top at Home. Being a beginner, I need all the tips I can get!ReplyDelete
Entries are now closed. Winner will be announced later today.ReplyDelete

Matt Barnes Will Not Appear On 'Basketball Wives LA', Said It Ruined His Relationship
If 'Basketball Wives LA' fans think that they are going to get all up in Matt Barnes and Gloria Govan's business this season, they have another thing coming. Matt says that he has learned his lesson and he won't be taking part in the show anymore.
This week, he stopped by Power 105.1fm's Breakfast Club morning show, and chatted about finally rekindling with Gloria as well as the negative effect the show had on their relationship. He also revealed that he will always love Gloria and although he's made quite a few mistakes since they've been together, he now realizes what's important to him.
Check out a few highlights:
On Not Returning to Basketball Wives This Season
I'm not on this season. We already opened up our relationship enough and we went through our drama last Summer so you know I fell back and let her do her thing and we're going to keep our situation a lot tighter this time around.
On Reality TV Hurting His Relationship
Gloria and the kids mean everything to me.[…]There was things I did to previously hurt her, being young and dumb, but I think opening our relationship and family up definitely put a strain on our situation.
On Taking an 8 Month Break From Each Other
We both dated and talked to other people while we were separated and now we're bringing things back together.[…]It's always hard when you have some sort of celebrity behind your name and everything you do is in the media's eye or you talk or mess with other celebrities. It gets messy.
On Working Out His Relationship With Gloria
It comes to a point where you wake up and realize what's important, you know? Women are out there for men, men are out there for women. It kind of goes back and forth but once you go through it enough and realize what's important, you wake up.
On If Reality TV Was a Distraction To His Career
I was never too heavy into 'Basketball Wives' enough to cause me any distractions. Not to say Lamar [Odom's] show caused him distractions because you know everybody has a lot on their plate, but I don't think teams look to highly on reality shows. Especially the reality shows that are out now.
On Whether A Guy Cheating Gives His Woman a Pass to Cheat Too
It never gives them a pass but you know karma is a mutha, boy. It's a part of growing up, it's a part of relationship, it's a part of life. There's no book on how to run this game, you just have to figure that [out] yourself and work on doing that.
On Twitter Beefing With Other Dudes Who Claim to Have Hooked Up With Gloria
No matter what, whether we're together or not, I'm always going to love her. She's always going to be the mother of my children. I'm not going to let anybody disrespect her.
Check out what else Matt had to say in the full interview below:

Wegerzyn Gardens MetroPark
Editor's Review
Even if you're not traveling with kids, the Children's Discovery Garden just inside the entrance to Wegerzyn Gardens Metropark is worth a visit. The first thing you'll see as you enter is a small cottage with a rainbow-hue forest for a roof. The whimsy only increases. A limestone grotto with a gentle waterfall and meandering moat beckons the littlest park visitors, who come in bathing suits for a free mini water park experience. There's also a music maze, wetlands area with a swampy pond and even an interactive vegetable garden.The adult-size gardens are just as fanciful. Through May 2013, a free-standing willow-branch sculpture (designed by artist Patrick Dougherty and crafted with the help of volunteers) beckons visitors. It's a swirling maze of twigs, bent and twirled into small paths ripe for exploring. Just beyond are the formal gardens, including a Victorian Garden and the Federal Garden, where European beech trees have been trained into beautiful plump, leafy arches. And for a walk on the moderately wild side, head onto the wooden boardwalk that deposits visitors on a 1-mile circular footpath through forested swampland.

Wow...what an awful call. How else do you play that out?
Wow...what an awful call. How else do you play that out?
Choo got it, dude.
The Bengals are dominating everywhere but the scoreboard. A nine-point leads feels like it should be 20+.
LOL @ Livings just giving up.
Choo got it, dude.
And a silly penalty by A.J. Not his finest game. Here's to hoping he makes a big play to make up for it.
Yeesh. Catch the freakin' ball!
Marvin playing not to lose drives me crazy! Especially with Pitts losing today.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
Zimmer and his D need to come up big, perfect time for a turnover.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
Cue up the pieces about an emotional Cowboys team overcoming a poor performance to win one for a fallen teammate...
Marvin's lack of time out management is going to cost them a chance to win this game. 3-1, if Dallas gets this 1st down, all they have to do is run a couple of plays to get a little closer, then kick the field goal as time expires.
I hope I'm wrong.
Why is the law firm sitting on 12 carries. I've been listening to the game, unable to watch it. Unless they've stacked the line of scrimmage, he needed 20+ carries today.

CHURUBUSCO — The "black division" team championship of Saturday's Turtletown Classic girl's track meet came down to the final two races.
When the smoke cleared, the Whitko Lady Wildcats topped host Churubusco by a narrow, 90-83, margin to claim the team title, while in the Gold Division for larger schools — the Columbia City Lady Eagle squad placed third behind Warsaw and Bellmont.
The Wildcats and Churubusco paced an 11-team black division that included teams from Woodlan, Fremont, Westview, Central Noble, Manchester, Canterbury, Culver, Garrett and Prairie Heights.
Columbia City competed in the 12-team, large school, gold division, finishing ahead of Leo, Angola, Dekalb, East Noble, West Noble, Fort Wayne North Side, Wawasee, Lakeland and Heritage.
Although Whitko had only one individual win, Miranda Terrill, who took the black division high jump title, clearing 5 feet, 1 inch, the Wildcats were able to take enough placings to take the team title.
Terrill also placed seventh in the 400-meter dash. Taylor Zwick gave the Wildcats a fourth-place finish in the discus with a toss of 85 feet, 5 inches, just ahead of teammate Dana Hobbs who placed fifth.
Zwick also took fifth in the long jump, a place behind the Lady Wildcats' Reghan Craig who was fourth with a leap of 14 feet, 8.75 inches.

It has been a year since my miscarriage at 9 weeks and I found out yesterday that I'm finally pregnant again!!! I haven't been on the boards lately since I didn't have much to talk about, but I'm back! Praying that this is it!!
So, my OB left a message for me today instructing me to get hCG testing every 3 days with a progesterone added to the first test. I'll have to call him tomorrow, but how many times do I have to do this test? I'm 4 weeks right now (conceived Nov. 25-27) I haven't had this checked before but had read about it last year and am glad he suggested this.
I had to tell everybody at work since there are occupational hazards I need to avoid, but my job ends on December 29, so I'm less worried about that.
It is going to be soooo hard to wait until January to tell my immediate family, but I don't want them to go through the disappointment again if I happen to miscarry. I'll try to make it to 8 weeks until I tell them. I'll have a vaginal ultrasound in about 2 weeks.
I just so happened to get my kidney numbers checked about 1 month ago and they had actually improved since last year!
So excited!!!

Willy Wonka Chicken?
There used to be this candy bar named Chicken Dinner! It didn't contain chicken or stuffing or vegetables, though… it was a chocolate-covered nut roll. And they delivered them to the stores in these snazzy trucks: Wouldn't it be swell to tool around in such a bad-ass truck? How great it would be to have it in your driveway!

Brandenburg Light
Classic Capped Toe Brogue Shoe
The Fit Expert
Shawn and Catherine from our Washington DC store says:
Because the Brandenburgs have a tapered toe, most people size up a half size for the best fit (especially in the women's sizes).
More Colours
A subtle banker's shoe with a trimmed leather sole, The Brandenburg Light is the unisexy shoe for those seeking to be victorious on the battlefield of bowling alley board meetings and boardwalk barbeques. Produced in our favourite Vietnamese factory, owned by Japanese shoe-makers, who were trained in England using 19th century traditional methods, the Gateway Family as a whole are some of the most classically fabricated shoes we have made in recent years. Featuring Italian leathers and suedes in casual colours that glow of cocktail antiquity, with a classic capped toe pattern, the unlined Brandenburg Light ensures you walk home with your head held high (and hopefully all three points).
Instagram @fluevog #vog_brandenburglight
*Leather soles can be slippery at first, and should not be worn in heavy wet weather, or on salted sidewalks as they may compromise the strength and structure of the sole. Many buyers choose to topy leather soles to remedy this.

Branden Stunning Burg Lights in Shiny Teal - Shine Baby
I went with a U.S. Size 11, on the tight side to begin with, has come good, but it has taken some time and bloodshed. Was it worth it? dam straight it was....
I never not get a comment when wearing these stunners. Shoes makith the man...
Being in New Zealand and having the service from the LA Fluevog shop, the future is very bright for myself and Fluevog Shoes....
walking on air
Sizing: well...Given that I have long toes, and the shoes taper, and that patent leather doesn't stretch, and all the advice about sizing even larger, I got a half size larger than I usually do, from 11 to 11.5. They're too big. I had to put in an extra insole to take up more space. So, careful. They make big feet look even bigger, sadly, though I think the glorious pink shine of the patent leather deflects all uncharitable thoughts.
The tops of the shoes, where the leather from the caps and the lacing part is sewn in also rubs a bit; blood was drawn. But surely that will stretch too with time. Right?
All the niggles aside, though, they are very comfortable to wear, and, perhaps more importantly, they put a jive in my step.
Literally my favorite pair of shoes (and I have quite a few)
If, like me, you wear a women's size smaller than a size 9 and want these, they currently (April 2015) have them on Amazon. I was SO happy, because I really wanted these shoes, and they only start at size 9 for women on fluevog.com (what's the dealio with that, John Fluevog?). If you're a woman who wears a size smaller than a 9, get them while you can at Amazon.
Regarding the fit, they aren't narrow through the heel or across the arch, but right at the toes, where the cap starts, they become really narrow really fast. I read another review where the reviewer said she has narrow feet and went 1/2 size up, but I have wide toes, so I went a full size up, and I don't regret it. I will say I have a space the width of my thumb between my big toe and the end, but looking at the shoes, I am sure my toes would have been squeezed if they were any closer to the end. Therefore, if you have narrow feet, go 1/2 size up, but if you have wide toes and a high arch like I do, consider going up one full size.
My favorite shoes ever.

McGinnis: Getting It RightWritten by Jeff McGinnis | | email@example.com
A pair of men standing on a vast white expanse of frozen lake. From a distance, it appears they are engaging in that most northern of winter traditions, ice fishing. But when the camera cuts closer, it's apparent that removing things from the frigid waters below is not their goal. Both men are trying to force something — someone — through a hole in the ice. The corpse's legs stick straight up like a pair of morbid handles.
"Hole's too small," the first man says — in sign language — to his partner.
"Guy's too fat," comes the gestured reply.
The camera cuts back to a distant shot of the pair as one of them proceeds to walk to the shack behind them. A revving sound — a chainsaw — commences as words are superimposed over the scene. "Fargo. An FX Original Series."
Yes, the commercial is the first of many teasers for a new show that will be broadcast in April — inspired, at least in theme and location, by the classic Coen Brothers' crime story from 1996. The original film garnered rave reviews and earned Francis McDormand an Oscar for her portrayal of iconic police chief Marge Gunderson. The movie's black comedy and knowing portrayal of Minnesotans and their culture, not to mention its tense tale of a kidnapping plot gone disastrously wrong, helped establish "Fargo" as one of the best films of its decade.
There have been talk for years about adapting the film, in some form or another, to the small screen. As far back as 1997, rumors swirled of a version being developed for various cable channels, but a pilot filmed with Edie Falco in the role of Marge was never picked up. Wasn't it better to leave well enough alone, anyway? How could the original movie's story and characters be captured in a small screen version?
The answer, if the details of the new production are to be believed, is that they can't. The new show isn't aiming to adapt the tale of small time car salesman Jerry Lundegaard (played in the original film by William H. Macy) and his efforts to hire a pair of kidnappers to abduct his wife in a pitiful scheme to extort money from his father-in-law. More importantly, it appears the new series will not feature any version of McDormand's Marge, either — the central character everyone thinks of when they think of "Fargo." No characters will be emulated at all from their screen counterparts, in fact.
Rather, the new show is pitched as an anthology series, a la "American Horror Story," with each season telling its own tale of crime and loose morals in the snow-covered desolation of the original film. The show will star Billy Bob Thornton as a drifter who runs into a salesman played by Martin Freeman, inspiring him to acts he never thought of committing before. Colin Hanks, Kate Walsh and Bob Odenkirk — Saul Goodman himself — are also starring in the show.
The idea of adapting the tone and feel of the original film, as opposed to simply lifting the story wholesale, is certainly a welcome concept. It opens up this new show to follow its own path instead of simply rehashing what the Coens did so successfully. (The brothers serve as executive producers of the series.) But there is still an odd feeling in my gut about the experiment, one which will not shake even as more promising details emerge about the project.
The thing is "Fargo" is one of those rare pieces of entertainment that is practically perfect as it stands. Few films ever have captured a sense of place as wholly as that film. So set is its vision of Brainerd, Minn. that I think of the movie every time winter arrives. So many images and pieces from the film have cemented themselves in my mind as cinematic markers, moments never to be forgotten. The beautiful, haunting theme music. "I'm not sure I agree with you on your police work there, Lou." The hilariously awkward interrogations between Marge and Jerry. The wood chipper.
Of course, that is not to say that the new project is without merit, or could not stand as an amazing work of its own accord. Toledoans only need to hear the title "M*A*S*H" to be reminded how a classic film can be adapted into an equally classic series. Still, it's a tricky proposition to capture this kind of lightning in a bottle once more. I hope the producers of this new "Fargo" can do it.

Nick Diaz has no showed the last three "countdown" tapings
Update: Diaz Camp RespondsDana said Nick Diaz has already no-showed three planned "Countdown" tapings. Said he's costing them a sh*tload of money but isn't worried.
When the Diaz camp learned of White's assertion that the fighter had missed three Countdown interviews, they insisted that Diaz did not blow off the interviews, he simply didn't know about them.
"Dana is mistaken. There is no 'crew rolling around Stockton' and Nick did not 'miss' three interviews," Jonathan Tweedale, a lawyer with the Nick Diaz camp, told MMAWeekly.com on Sunday.
"In fact, several earlier dates were arranged without Nick's knowledge and with no notice to Nick. When Nick learned what had happened, I assisted him in arranging a date and time directly (Thursday, Feb. 14). Nick arrived early and was in good spirits at that Feb. 14 date – the one and only date he knew about in advance.
"Nick requires things to be done in an organized and orderly manner. That is the kind of professional he is."
I can't believe that he would no-show a promotional event. It just doesn't seem like him. If only there had been some kind of hint, some form of foreshadowing in his past behavior...

Make-A-Wish South Carolina has helped the dreams of another local child come true.
Payton Carraway, 6, of Aiken, received a free trip to Disneyland in California with his family. The family went on the trip earlier this month shortly after Make-A-Wish volunteers John and Debbie Haupert told them the exciting news.
Payton is an energetic, happy little boy who loves race cars, so he spent some time in Cars Land, which is an amusement park based on the Disney movie "Cars." When the family arrived at their hotel, he could see Cars Land from the window.
"Oh, he was excited," said his mother Stephanie Carraway. "He was beside himself with excitement."
Payton's parents and his 7-year-old brother Gavin spent their trip enjoying amusement rides and dancing with Mickey Mouse himself.
"He was cool," Payton said smiling.
They also had passes for other theme parks like Medieval Times and Knott's Berry Farm. Payton got VIP treatment while he was going through the parks.
Stephanie said everything was in walking distance and the trip was a lot of fun.
The highlight for Payton was seeing "Cars" main character Lightning McQueen, a personified race car.
The brothers also got to build their own toy race cars.
Anthony Carraway, Payton's father, said that the program is excellent.
"It's amazing, in general, to be able to give a kid something that we couldn't give him straight out," Anthony said. "Being able to provide that for him, something that he wanted to do so long, is just great."
John Haupert said that he and his wife, who have been involved in the program for several years now, enjoying having a hand in brightening a child's day.
"It's not work," Haupert said. "It's a pleasure to do it."
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants a wish of a child diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition. Payton suffers from hypoplastic left heart syndrome, and has had three open heart surgeries, said Stephanie Carraway.
Make-A-Wish South Carolina makes an average of 140 dreams come true across the state each year.

Apple reportedly orders 10 million iPad mini's ready for fourth quarter release
Apple has reportedly placed orders for around 10 million iPad mini tablets according to The Wall Street Journal. The information on the huge order quantity number comes from various Apple supply chain vendors in the Asia region who claim to have received orders specifically for the iPad mini.
Some component suppliers to Apple in Asia say they have received orders to make more than 10 million units of the smaller tablets in the fourth quarter. That is roughly double the order that were placed for Amazon's Kindle Fire tablets in the same quarter, these suppliers say. The figure indicates that Apple believes demand for the product will be strong, despite stiff competition in the market. Apple hasn't responded to requests for comment on the smaller tablet dubbed by the industry as the iPad mini.
Apple already owns the majority of the tablet space with the current iPad but there is definitely a small chunk of that market looking for a slightly smaller or cheaper tablet; especially if it comes with all the features of the current iPad. For some buyers, the current entry price point for an iPad of around $500 is a little too high, for others it is the 9.7-inch size which puts them off. If Apple addresses both of these issues with the iPad mini then it could well be game over for everyone else.
The rumor mill has certainly gone a little quiet regarding the iPad mini over the past few weeks however we expect that to start building again very soon. We have already heard that the iPad mini is in mass production from another source and we expect it to be formally announced sometime this month.

Apple reportedly orders 10 million iPad mini's ready for fourth quarter release
I know it's Apple, but if all the rumors are true with non-retina, ~8", 4:3 aspect, etc, I'm still surprised at those numbers. I'm wondering if they are planning a cut-throat price to go head to head with Amazon and Google?
Should be interesting. After all I never saw the appeal in the original iPad and look what they did with that.
I would love to see it at that price point also but, it would not fit into the iPod Touch pricing. It doesn't seem logical to price an iPad Mini for less than the entry point of an iPod Touch. But… it is NOT Apple's style to release a stripped down version of any product just to bring the price down. It will be a dark day for Apple to do something like that.
The new iPod Touch starts at $299 with 32GB and the iPhone's display. If this has 8GB at the entry level, and a non-retina display, it can have the A5 internals and I think it could be $249. It could even start at $279. I am pretty sure Apple has used $...79 prices before. Anyway, if what has been on the web is true, this is supposed to be a thin and light device. I don't know if they can get the GPU power and the requisite battery required to drive a Retina display that size in a really thin and light form factor. Apple has a priority in maintaining battery life and touch performance.
When was the last time you saw Apple put out a budget device like that? Apple is the premium brand and there is no way they're changing that now. This thing is going to be $350 at the very least, probably $399.
Apple charges a rather consistent margin over the cost of components. ~25% to ~%40. Usually, they are at the lower end of the spectrum for the cheaper products and at the higher end for, well, the iPhone. If the components are similar to the ones being rumoured, then $399 would be well over 100% mark up. That is not going to happen. The most likely price will be $299. But, I personally hope for $249.
You mean it's not like apple to charge aggressive prices. Apple only sells it products at full retail markup. Other companies offer more bang for the buck because they don't charge the margins that Apple does. Not saying it hasn't been good for them, but the only Apple product I'll buy is the phone which is discounted by the carriers. The laptops and iPads are over priced and over hyped.
You may consider the products over priced and over hyped, but I like that they have built the long term stability of the company into the price of the product. I also appreciate that warranty work is usually easy to get and they are sometimes generous with it. There are some trade offs for the price.
There is absolutely no way it is going to be in the $200 range. The best you can hope for is that it'll be in the mid-$300 range but I think we're looking at a $399 product.
GPU resources at that resolution would be prohibitive to battery life and heat. It can't happen until the processing power is ready. At Retina resolution (same as iPad 3), you are looking at 3 to 4 times the number of pixels as the iPhone 5. Something would have to give. The trade off is going to be thin and light for lower resolution.

Pulse Laser and Skincare CenterRead MoreWorking from their sole location at 149 Madison Avenue and unaffiliated with any other laser center or beauty lounge, owners Kimberly Schanzer and Michelle Moyer and their team of technicians have earned a top spot on Yelp's Best of list for hair removal in New York, and they've even been cited as experts on YouBeauty, a website co-founded by TV's Dr. Oz. The beauty experts are not only licensed aestheticians and certified cosmetic laser technicians, but also certified laser-safety officers. Coming from a variety of backgrounds, the women utilize their wide range of skills to make each client's visit to the boutique-style space personal and comfortable. The team has chosen some of the most advanced laser hair-removal technology available—Candela's GentleLASE, GentleLASE Pro, and GentleYAG lasers—which they can use on light or dark skin. They also diminish acne and deep wrinkles with Candela's Smoothbeam laser. Editor of American Spa Magazine Heather Mikesell tried out the center's Candela GentleLASE procedure. She said, "Although I've had my share of laser hair-removal sessions, I have to say this was one of the most hassle-free." Mikesell appreciated the system's ability to treat a large body area and its patented cooling mechanism, which relieves discomfort better than a blanket sewn from strings of frozen peas. Pulse Laser and Skincare Center has also received accolades from a variety of other press.436 Effey StSanta Cruz, California US

Adventure Sports UnlimitedRead MoreA class of scuba divers check over their equipment one last time before they paddle their kayaks off a beach in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. The divers have thoroughly prepared for this moment. They've trained within the controlled confines of Adventure Sports Unlimited's heated swimming pool and picked their certified instructor's brain during classroom sessions. Once the instructor gives the go-ahead, the divers plunge from the kayak and immediately enter another world. As they float weightlessly underwater, the divers marvel at the vibrant reefs and the abundant aquatic wildlife that fill the marine sanctuary. Afterward, the group travels back to the shore, where a breathtaking landscape awaits with white-sand beaches and glassy tide pools swirling with color. The scuba divers, at this point, have only one thing on their minds: dinner. Luckily, the area is teeming with natural cuisine and plenty of sand, which is really just sugar. Adventure Sports Unlimited's expert foragers show the group how to collect shellfish, sea vegetables, and clams. With a fresh smorgasbord in hand, group members scuttle back to the facility to transform their ingredients into soups and barbecue—and perhaps ponder taking a scuba trip to the South Pacific. In addition to outdoor excursions like these, Adventure Sports Unlimited also leads year-round swimming, scuba, and kayaking lessons, which take advantage of the facility's custom-built swimming pool.303 Potrero StSanta Cruz, CA US
Samba Rock Acai CafeRead MoreWhen owners Vanessa and Ron Wilkerson were opening Samba Rock Acai Café, they encountered many roadblocks along the way. For instance, the city assessed there would be a $30,000 traffic-impact fee for their restaurant. So the duo improvised. They built an indoor bike parking area, reducing the fee while still providing customers a place to park their wheels. This is just one example in which Ron has defied what some might see as a career-ending set-back. In 1988, the former professional BMX Freestyle rider fell into a coma after failing to land a no-hander, no-footer trick on his bike. Though some might have given up after a life-threatening experience like that—he suffered short-term memory loss and even forgot some of the BMX tricks that he had pioneered—Ron got back on his bike. And if he hadn't, he would never have traveled to Sao Paolo, Brazil, met Vanessa, married her, or opened Samba Rock Acai Café. The menu at Samba Rock Acai Café pays homage to the country where the Wilkersons met and where Vanessa grew up. Blended Brazilian berries and mix-ins, such as bananas and peanut butter, make up the base for their acai bowls. They crown this base with toppings such as fresh fruit, avocado, coconut cream, and granola. Their smoothies also feature acai, as well as organic ingredients, which have never been tainted by spray tanners to look more appealing to customers. To round out their South American-inspired menu, they serve yerba mate—steeped leaves of the mate plant—with acai to sweeten each sip.291 Water StreetSanta Cruz, CA US

Stacy Levy
Cloud Stones
Mineral Springs Park
1500 N. 105th St.
Seattle Parks and Recreation 2000 Parks Levy 1% for Art
Stacy Levy's Cloud Stones reflect the sky, much as water would, and act as active visual spots showing the movement of clouds and providing impromptu seating within the grass areas along a path at Mineral Springs Park. Cloud Stones are polished black granite and white marble half domes of varying diameters and heights. Phrases sandblasted around the base of each stone reference various ways weather patterns are described. The stones interact with the daily environmental changes. They become white and "glowing" on moonlit nights while the black drops away. The black stones absorb the sun's warmth and release it as night falls retaining a connection to the day's weather. The artist responded to the site's curving path, creating a meandering artwork and referencing a spring that used to be on the site.

Vermont Maple Syrup

Pure Vermont Maple Syrup... How Sweet It Is!
- Sweet, full-bodied Vermont maple syrup is world famous
- It takes 30-40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of syrup!
We sell only 100% pure, organic maple syrup, made from the clear, sweet sap of Vermont's world-famous sugar maples. The sap is tapped in early spring on a 200-acre family farm and then boiled down over a roaring wood fire. The result is Grade A medium amber syrup with the full-bodied flavor preferred by most Vermonters. A favorite on pancakes, waffles or oatmeal, it also livens up baked beans, glazed carrots and ice cream!

- Can't Go Wrong With Syrup
- It's From Vermont
- Makes a nice gift
- Grade A Has Less Flavor
- Grade B Tastes
- Not Organic
- Over priced
Best Uses
- Pancakes Duh
Grade A is marketed as the premium syrup, but Grade B has more flavor. Still, this was a fun gift to recieve since we love maple syrup and live on the West side of the Rockies, where maple syrup isn't produced.
Don't like plastic bottles and packaging, but this was shipped, so maybe the alternative would have been too expensive.
- Was this a gift?:
- Yes
- Great maple flavor
- thin
Best Uses
Love the great maple flavor. The only negative comment I would have is that it is thin, not thick like "pancake syrup" but of course this is the real thing.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- delicious
- Maple Delight
- Too small
Best Uses
- Cookies
- Pancakes
- Replacment For Sugar
This maple syrup is so good we use it on acorn squash with butter instead of brown sugar. There is no comparison to the awful stuff the grocery stores pass off as maple syrup here in Houston. The genuine article is exquisite in flavor and texture. It brings back memories of sugaring in the spring when I lived in Vermont and got to pour fresh syrup over ice. Also this product is delicious over ice cream. Highly recommended!
- I would buy it again
Best Uses
A good flavor with no after taste. I enjoyed it on pancakes and french toast.
good and thick
Artificial pancake syrup might be ok, if you don't have real Maple syrup. Real Maple syrup is the best.
