Best budget astrophotography lens for nikon d5100
Posted 06 March 2013 - 06:02 PM
Just got the above camera with kit lenses 18-55 and 55-300....was hoping for advice on a prime lens solely for astrophotography use that would be a good all rounder and I could use for comet ISON later this year.
Was thinking either the 35mm 1.8g, or 50mm either 1.8d or 1.8g, but have read conflicting reports on whether the 1.8d is useable with the d5100 due to focus inability. I'd prefer the d as it costs $100 less than the others, and I'm used to manually focussing for infinity with my kit lens.
Appreciate any advice! Budget is max AUD 220. Any third party alternatives?

Or Nikon 105mm F/2.8 Macro (either VR or non-VR version), but a bit more $..
Or, if you like manual focus lenses, the older Ai lenses are great.. particularly the Nikon 50mm F/1.4 Ai, 105mm F/2.5 Ai, 200mm F/4 Ai..
And these can usually be had fairly cheap, and you could probably pick a couple up for ~$100-150..
Now, any lens without a BIM(built in motor) is not going to allow AF on your D5100...that is what comes with the territory on the lower end models with Nikon..which I have never understood..Canon puts motors in ALL of their lenses(EF and EF-S), why cant Nikon??
Just a way to get more $ out of us! lol
The 50/1.8G is awesome. I love it. Though I prefer my Sigma 50/1.4 for actual daytime, the MUCH larger Sigma will not allow me to attach my 48mm filters for imaging like the Nikon F/1.8 will. the Nikon /1.4 version SHOULD allow this as well..though I do not have firsthand experience with this model(either D or G)..
the 35mm F/1.8 G I have heard really great things about. And if you do not have a prime lens in your collection, I would STRONGLY advise getting this one. It would probably become your most used lens..
Though, I do not know if 35mm will be very fun/useful for AP...it is a quite large FOV(equivilant to ~52mm on Full Frame). That is a bit too wide for me. 85mm to 105mm(35mm equivilant) is kinda my sweet spot/favorite for wide field..
Good luck!

I'll keep my eye out for a good 2nd hand version of the 50 g, if no luck I can get new for around $220...

Also you can consider a Nikkor 180mm F2.8.A very good and sharp lens but you have to pay the price, it is not a budget lens but a lens you own your whole life. Here on CN you can find very fine results with it.

I am getting the newer AF-D version(~$400-500 MINT used) as I own Nikon DSLRs and would like the AF for daytime!
I have seen the older Ai/AiS versions go for less than $200..crazy since optically they are all the same=brilliant!

There is a rumor about the Nikkor 180 mm lens without the ED marking, already uses a low dispersion lens in the lenssystem...(Peterson's Nikon system handbook).
Do you have a screen capture of the material? It will be great if someone can prove this.

There is a rumor about the Nikkor 180 mm lens without the ED marking, already uses a low dispersion lens in the lenssystem...(Peterson's Nikon system handbook).
Do you have a screen capture of the material? It will be great if someone can prove this.
According to Ken Rockwell, ***HERE*** the first Nikkor 180 to get the true ED element was the pre-AI version ....AFAIK anything else is speculation...though I could be wrong...
Of course youwould probably not have to spend much more$ to get the"real" ED version..
For anything DX, the absolute best lens I have ever bought was the Sigma 30mm F/1.4, which at ~$200-250 used it is a real bargain and I guarantee it will become your favorite daytime lens....
And unlike the rokinon,it DOES have AF and everything else..
And for LESS $ than the Rokinon, though the Roki could be used on FX unlike the Sigma.
For longer F/L, look at the Nikon 105mm F/2.5 AIs..for <~$100-200 ,trust me, you will not find a better lens for the$, or even in the same focal range.
My absolute best a d favorite lenses are,in no particular order;
Sigma 30/1,4
Sigma 50/1,4
Sigma 85/1,4 (see a trend?
Nikon 35/1,8 G
Nikon 105/2,5 AIs or 102/2,8 macro D(non-VR version)
Sigma 70-200/2,8 BE
Nikon 180ED AF(only bought the AF version because I also us it for daytime...if I'm gonna buy a lens of that cost, it may as well be useful for more than just one use/type of imaging, otherwise get the AIs version)
Finally, Nikon 300/4 AF-D
Other than the 300 and sigma 85, I currently own everything above....though in all honesty the sigma 30/1,4 & 50/1,4 are glued to my cameras..those and the 70-200/2,8 Sigma..
For AP, wide would be easily done with the Nikon 35G (on the VERY cheap side, but again, I would go for the sign due to its better optical and build quality, AND having a half stop more aperture..
The Sigma 50 would be perfect also
As would the Nikon 105/2,5 (my favorite so far for the mid-Tele range, even though it does not have AF..)
Or there is the ever popular 180ED which ha been mentioned quite a few times...it really is that good...and for ~$200(AIs) to ~$350(AD) to 450(AF-D newest version)
Good luck...
Btw this is all IMHO, AFAIK, and YMMV

There are certain iconic symbols that come to mind when one thinks of San Francisco and for beer lovers it is the Anchor Steam® logo. Combining the classic art of brewing with modern methods, Anchor Brewing Company's line of beers are hand-crafted from an all-malt mash in their traditional copper brewhouse. Tracing its roots back to the California Gold Rush, Anchor Brewing is America's first craft brewery and continues to thrive in the craft beer market. Much like many of San Francisco's landmarks, the Anchor Brewing product line has captured the hearts of many. Here are some of our favorite selections from this iconic brewery.
Anchor Steam®, A San Francisco Original
Much like the beautiful city where it was conceived, Anchor Steam® is rich in history and culture. With its gorgeous amber color and luscious, creamy head, Anchor Steam® is considered by many to be San Francisco's signature beer. It's name is fitting as it was inspired by the brewing process on the West Coast in the 19th century. "Steam" was the name for beer brewed during this period under which brew masters had to work under primitive conditions and without ice. It is believed that the the origin of the name "steam" came from the practice of fermenting beer on San Francisco rooftops in a cool climate. San Francisco's foggy air cooled the warm, fermenting beer and thus created steam. Today "steam" is a trademark of Anchor Brewing Company and is only associated with the flavor of their flagship brand, Anchor Steam® Beer.
Liberty Ale®
Known as the first modern American IPA brewed after prohibition, Liberty Ale® has a distinctive hop bouquet and champagne-like bubbles which both lend to the balanced characteristics of this single-hop ale. Born in 1975, it is made with only natural ingredients and is brewed strictly according to traditional brewing methods. Just like San Francisco sparked a revolution of love in the 1960's, Liberty Ale® is the original craft ale that started a beer revolution.
Summer® Beer
Crisp and refreshing like the cool breeze over San Francisco bay, Summer® Beer's light and refreshing taste captures the essence of summer in the city spent with good friends and delectable bites. Conceived in 1984, it is one of of the first American wheat beers of modern times. Ideal for those seeking something on the lighter side without sacrificing tradition Summer ® Beer is a perfect match. Available April through October, it coincides nicely with America's favorite pastime and pairs well with ball game fare.
Old Foghorn® Ale
Barleywine style ale is to beer what port is to wine: sweeter, thicker and richer. Based on traditional English barleywine methods, Old Foghorn® Barleywine Style Ale is hoppy, sweet and fruit forward. First introduced in 1975, Old Foghorn® was the first modern American barleywine that sparked a renewed interest in barleywine ales domestically. Ideal for sipping on after a meal, Old Foghorn® is a San Francisco classic. Sip on it at Boxing Room in the Hayes Valley neighborhood. Known for their Cajun and Creole dishes of New Orleans and coastal Louisiana, coupled with seasonal Northern California ingredients, Boxing Room is a recent addition to the city's eclectic dining scene. Occupying the former 19th-century Standard Shirts Factory, it is the ideal place to enjoy one of Anchor Brewing's most iconic brands in a historical setting.

Greetings everyone, this is the seventh issue and the second part of Entities. This is going to be a long one, so bear with me! The second half of the segment will be talking about the races that exist in the universe rather than the stand-alone entities that we recognize in the astral realm. I will be stating the ones that are mutually agreed on amongst the spiritual community and have proof from more than a couple sources for their existence. There may be more than what I state here, but I just want to give a general idea of what these beings may be like in comparison to us. But first, our lucid lesson:
Lucid Lesson
Last week we sort of moved away from Robert Waggoner's Lucid Dreaming to get a broader view of the types of dream figures. There are many categories among the ones I stated, but to a beginner lucid dreamer, it won't matter just yet. Today we will be going back into Waggoner's material on how to converse with dream figures. The eight guidelines for speaking with a dream figure according to Robert Waggoner are:
- Don't limit the dream figure by expressing prejudiced assumptions, such as "You're a creation of my mind!" or "Do you know I'm dreaming you?" Most dream figures just stare at you when you say these things. Instead, ask them an open-ended question, like "Who are you?" or "What do you represent?" or "Why are you here?" Then listen for their response.
- When you have a choice, look for the most appropriate, aware, or intelligent dream figure to talk with. If you see Aunt Nelly but remember that Aunt Nelly was always confused, asking her questions will, most likely, lead to questionable results.
- Develop your most important question, or series of questions, in the waking state. Sometimes in the excitement of being lucid, you may be unable to think of anything appropriate to ask.
- Recognize the expectation effect and your influence in the process. If you expect a nonsensical reply, don't be surprised when you get it. If you get something unexpected, don't toss it away and ignore it. Don't be blind to what you don't expect (or want) to see.
- If confused by the dream figure's response, ask for clarification!
- See the answer in broad terms. It may come as a feeling, an image, words, a symbol, or all of these at once.
- Asking general questions ("what is my purpose in life?") may lead to cryptic responses ("To live."). Instead, ask specific questions such as "What does this white horse symbolize?" or a question that has an unknown answer, as in "When the Cubs play next, what will the final score be?" Or, get some advice about how best to manipulate the dream.
- Come to the conversation with a sense of openness. Come with a desire to learn, not a desire to tell. Experience the magic of consciously being aware in dreaming.
I did not paraphrase these guidelines because I felt the author explained them in the clearest way possible. From experience, I can say I've put these into action or felt a place in which they could have been. This is an example from one of my lucid dreams:
It seems I had wandered into a facility that was used by vampires to feed on people, sort of like a party or feast. I think I got there from a beach where I was with a few friends. While in this facility, I was trying to evade them and also act inconspicuous so I could get out. At some point I realized it was a dream, making me lucid. I had no idea what to do or say at this point (#3), so I said, "unconscious mind, speak to me." A young woman appeared before me, complaining about a roommate that didn't belong in our dorm with us. I don't live in a dorm, so I recognized this as symbolic. I asked who the roommate represented (#1, #5), and she said "Okeanos." Along with these words, I felt a feeling that came from her (#6), basically stating that she was a manifestation of Aulphur, one of my higherselves. This made sense to me, but puzzled me as I was confused as to why Okeanos, my other higherself, 'didn't belong'. At this point I just went back to the facility, fought all the vampires for fun, and woke up.
In waking reality, I pondered what Aulphur had said to me and came to the conclusion that the dorm represented the soul we share as one being, and that Okeanos was not a higherself, but something still connected to me in a sense. We won't go into detail about it, but I came to some revelations, as many lucid dreams bring. Conversation is a very important aspect of lucid dreaming, because you can learn so much from yourself. I encourage you all to try it.
A Theory
To start off today's main topic, I want to talk about a little theory I have. It starts off at the beginning of creation. Let us use SS6's creation depiction to aid us with this (starting at 1:50, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7GJ-8SY068 )
Source, Spirit, God, the Absolute, is all there is in the void. They contain all of the potential in the universe. This is the first consciousness. Through quantum mechanics, we have defined consciousness as something that creates through perception. We ourselves are conscious, because we create our own realities through our own perceptions. This also implies that consciousness can create more consciousness through the act of reproduction. If we go back to the beginning, this presents a paradox, as the first consciousness does not have something to create itself. The only way we can make sense of this is that Source is able to perceive itself, because it exists outside of time and the concept of precedence does not exist. I am that I am. It then began to create through the geometry of consciousness or the way that consciousness moves and perceives. Out of this came basic matter and all of that mumbo jumbo, but more importantly, came life. Light, or stars, was the supposed first of these, and soon after came planets. These two life forms complimented each other, planets rotating around stars and the stars essentially sharing their light oriented qualities with the planets. The result of this for some planets was the birth of other life forms on their biosphere. We all know the evolution story with the primordial waters and such (this happens on all habitable planets), so I'll skip ahead a bit. When planets get to a state of biodiversity, there is something I believe occurs to promote more creation throughout the universe. We've already talked about plants being the extension of the planet, but what about animals? They support the biosphere in a circle of life, but their evolution process has allowed them to have a more balanced level of male and female energy. They are a part of the earth, contributing and sustaining the biosphere, but understand their own individuality.
Now, on every habitable planet, I believe there is a particular species that has developed their mental capacity beyond the rest of the biosphere. On our planet, it was primates. When this particular species is defined as having the best capacity to grow, I believe a new species is seeded on these planets, taking aspects from the origin species' DNA to evolve in a different way. Most evolution works in a way that adapts to climate. As a species, we have grown past this stage of natural selection and into a new type of evolution, Ascension. Instead of evolving laterally, we evolve upwards. Our minds evolve instead of our bodies, allowing us to perceive things higher than our current dimension. In other words, we are given 'the divine spark'. This does not mean we are better than other life forms; just that we have a different purpose. On other habitable planets, I believe this happens as well, and I think these are the races that are highly advanced technologically and spiritually. These appropriately dubbed 'Ascendi' races are what we will be talking about today.
Resonant Races
Resonant or Harmonic Ascendi races are races that allow prana or life energy to run through them from source. To ascend, these races need to walk the path of light, increasing in frequency and balancing male and female energies. Many of these races are benign, or service-to-others. Here are some examples:
In most accounts, Sirians are depicted as cetacean (whales, dolphins, or porpoises), implying that cetacean creatures were the most advanced on their planet. In many accounts, such as in the study of the Dogon tribe, they have communicated with us and specified their origins to Sirius B, the star rotating with the brightest star in the sky, Sirius A. Throughout history they have made appearances to ancient civilizations and some confuse them as having been Atlanteans. From my understanding and experiences, they are adept with the use of vibrations, as are whales and dolphins on Earth. Some theorize that the cetaceans on our earth came from Sirius B. Most Ascendi races can appear in higher dimensions as their origin race to allow you to understand them better, or in a bipedal form, due to the proportions being geometrically efficient. From what's been told to me, they exist mostly on 6D, are in 'Christ Consciousness' and are very spiritual rather than technological.
From pretty much all accounts, Pleiadians appear to be humanoid in origin,
which may mean that their origins are similar to ours. Their appearances seem very similar to elves with slightly more pointed ears and very delicate facial features. They come from the star system of Pleiades, as their name denotes, and are equally as technological as they are spiritual. They are very expressive of love and sexuality, as these are of utmost importance to them. There is a particular YouTube series of someone channelling the Pleadians known as Bringers of the Dawn. To learn more about the Pleiadians, I suggest watching it here. It begins a little cheesy at first, but it has a lot of solid information if you continue to listen. It's up to you what you want to take from it, but it's all worth learning about.
From what I've learned about them, it is not too clear as to what they look like ethereally. Accounts say something similar to humanoid form but shorter. The reason that there is not much information on this is because they are more technological and use those means of transportation rather than etheric travel. They are said to be primarily 5D beings, residing in the star system Arcturus. They are very disciplined and rule-oriented, but all of their actions are in order to raise frequency closer to Source. Love is very important to them, and they are some of the greatest protectors in the universe due to their technological advancement. Many mistake them for the Grays. Edgar Cayce is known for his writings on the Arcturians. The main writings about them are here.
I'm sure there are more Resonant races out there, but these are the ones who have made the most appearances in our history.
Dissonant Races
Dissonant Ascendi Races are beings who have chosen to take part in the 'Lucifer Experiment'. They are duality-based, left-brained races who have cut themselves off from Source. As prana does not run through them constantly, they must consume energy from other beings to survive. They mostly are technology oriented, have little emotion, and only wish to benefit themselves. They can achieve power and ascension quickly and efficiently with the consequences of cutting themselves off from the rest of consciousness. Here are some main ones we know about:
I'm not entirely sure whether these were Grays or not, but they seem to have their characteristics. In the 5 parts of SS 12, they are talked about thoroughly. In short, they were habitants of Mars when it was a habitable planet, but many wars lead to the destruction of the ozone layer. In order to survive, they came to Earth and radically altered our evolutional process. They understand the mechanics of sacred geometry, but failed to apply the prana that is needed for it to work. It is said that they caused the Bermuda triangle to become the mysterious void it is today.
Reptillians/ Draconians/ Dracos
These are beings that have supposedly come from a variety of places, most prominently the Alpha Draconis star system or the planet Nibiru that occasionally enters our star system in a strange, oval-like orbit. I believe the original race they came from were something synonymous with our understanding of Dragons. There are many mutations of this race; some keep the original races form with superior intelligence (Draconians), some are humanoid reptiles (Reptillians), some are humanoid reptiles with wings(Dracos), etc. They are known to have a great interest in gold, maybe for its metaphysical properties, and are known for their deception and persuasion. They are also known to shape shift or take different forms as well. But, there is more to them than people realize:
Anunnaki, Elohim, and Nephilim
Let's clear up who these guys really are. Anunnaki in ancient Sumerian means 'Those from heaven to earth came'. They were essentially Angels that partook in the Lucifer Experiment, disconnecting from Source. The word Elohim is a Hebrew plural word, deriving from the singular word El, meaning God or Mighty One. The plural essentially means Mighty Ones or Gods, which is actually referring to these angels. According to the book of Enoch (a biblical text found with the Dead Sea Scrolls), these fallen angels came to Earth, told the people that they were their gods, mated with human women, and had hybrid offspring. These offspring were mutated in many ways, some appearing mostly human and some of which were the Giants we hear about in ancient history. These giants were known as Nephilim or "fallen ones". A lot of royalty in the past claimed to be related to dragons to promote their divine right to govern, and many believe that today, these beings are still in power. Hebrew lore states that the spirits of these giants became demons, as it was an unnatural reproduction. The fallen angels were venerated by many ancient societies and a lot of pagan deities were based off of them. Lucifer is shown as the snake and the dragon for this reason, because these fallen angels took this form when they were stripped of unconditional love. If you want to read what's in the book of Enoch, the link is here, but it is a dense text, directly translated from Hebrew. The whole book is basically Enoch being shown by angels the higher dimensions or heavens and taught about many things. Some speculate that Enoch actually transcended into the being or angel known as Metatron, so researching on that topic would be beneficial as well.
This doesn't necessarily mean that all reptillians are fallen angels, nor does it mean that all of the Dissonant or Resonant Races do not have individuals who chose a different path. I am just showing what is portrayed in history and through broad speculation. This information is all for you to discern, so I suggest you look into it yourself if you really want to be sure. Come to your own conclusion. Next issue will be about how to conduct yourself when faced in a hostile situation in Astral (which I'll be honest I've been really waiting for). Namaste, and all will be revealed.

GlutaMAX™ vs. Glutamine
Get the most from your cell cultures with GlutaMAX™-I
L-glutamine is an essential nutrient in cell cultures for energy production as well as protein and nucleic acid synthesis. However, L-glutamine in cell culture media spontaneously degrades, generating ammonia and pryyolidone carboxylic acid as byproducts.
GlutaMAX™-I is a dipeptide, L-alanine-L-glutamine, which is more stable in aqueous solutions and does not spontaneously degrade. GlutaMAX™ media and media supplemented with the GlutaMAX™-I supplement are suitable for both adherent and suspension mammalian cell cultures with little or no adaptation required.
The mechanism of dipeptide utilization involves the gradual release of peptidase during culture to allow the gradual hydrolysis of the dipeptide in the medium (Figure 1). This can be compared to the strategy of a fed-batch culture in which L-glutamine is continuously fed into the culture but maintained at low concentration. The result is an efficient energy metabolism and a high-growth yield.
|Figure 1: Controlled delivery of L-glutamine from media to cells in culture.
How does GlutaMAX™-I work?
Figure 2: Human mesenchymal stem cells cultured with GlutaMAX™ media and stained with DAPI nuclear stain and primary CD105 antibody bound to a secondary Alexa Flour® 488 antibody.
Figure 3: Human mesenchymal stem cells cultured with GlutaMAX™ media under adipogenic differentiating conditions and stained with Hoechst 33342 nuclear stain, LipidTOX™ Green neutral lipid and MitoTracker® Red.
How does GlutaMAX™-I improve your cell culture?
Using GlutaMAX™-I supplement in place of L-glutamine in cell culture can improve cell viability and growth, potentially increasing productivity levels.
Results may vary depending upon the cell line used. In an application-specific example, figures 4 and 5 show an AE-1 cell growth curve and recombinant IgG1 production. The GlutaMAX™-I culture demonstrates improved cell numbers and productivity.
Figure 4: Cell Growth. AE-1 mouse myeloma cells were seeded at 1x105 cells/ml. Samples were taken daily after three days and evaluated in triplicate for cell density. Cell viability was determined by trypan blue exclusion. Cell density continued to increase in samples containing GlutaMAX™-I past the point when L-glutamine containing samples decreased in cell density.
Figure 5: IgG1 Production. The samples from figure 4 were also examined by ELISA for IgG1 production. GlutaMAX™-I containing samples outperformed L-glutamine containing samples.
GlutaMAX™-I supplement can extend cell culture life, which may reduce the number of times the cells must be passaged and saves you time AND money.
Figure 6 compares MDBK cells cultured in D-MEM with 10% FBS and L-glutamine or GlutaMAX™-I supplement. Cells cultured in GlutaMAX™-I reach peak density two days later and viability declines less rapidly than that observed in cultures with L-glutamine supplementation. The slight increase in lag phase is attributed to the time needed to release the peptidase and digest the dipeptide.
This allows a gradual increase in availability of L-glutamine to the cells.2

I have been writing a Delphi library for StackApps API.
I have run into a problem with Indy. I am using the version that ships with Delphi 2010. If you pass invalid parameters to one of the StackApps API it will return a HTTP Error Code 400 and then in the response it will contain a JSON object with more details.
By visiting http://api.stackoverflow.com/0.8/stats/?Key=BadOnPurpose in Chrome Browser you can see an Example. I.E. and Firefox hide the JSON.
Using WireShark I can see that the JSON object is returned using the code below, but I am unable to access it using Indy.
For this test code I dropped a TIdHttp component on the form and placed the following code in a button click.
procedure TForm10.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
SS : TStringStream;
SS := TStringStream.Create;
Memo1.Lines.Text := SS.DataString;
I passed [400] so that it would not raise the 400 exception. It is as if Indy stopped reading the response. As the contents of Memo1 are empty.
I am looking for a way to get the JSON Details.

Plan Could Affect Ohio School Levies
June 23, 2013
It is becoming more and more difficult for school officials to convince Ohio voters to accept property tax levies. Last August, just 10 or the 26 school issues on Buckeye State ballots were approved....
If local tax dollars cannot support local schools, the schools should merge or close.
Only property owners in a school district should have a right to vote on levies.
End federal and state funding for schools. Educating your child is YOUR responsibility. Homeschooling and cyberschooling are very popular now because of the poor job done by public schools, both in terms of actual education and in the allocation of resources.
1 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
My personal opinion is a public school should be 100% financed by the state government. Any tax on the local level should be some sort of consumption tax. it isn't fair to only tax those who work and or those who own property. a lot of people fly under the radar and work for cash while collecting government assistance and these people pay nothing. These people also have a huge amount of children in school. the only way to make them assist in paying is when they spend their cash.
0 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Housing, health care, education, food, clothing and transportation are YOUR responsibility. Thus, these things should also be provided for your children-BY YOU.
I should not be under obligation to subsidize other people nor should they be obligated to subsidize me.
Those who demand that others pay their way are usually the type who don't pay for anything.
If you cannot afford children and are receiving public assistance, you should be on mandatory birth control until such time as you get off the dole.
We have too many welfare idiots pushing out too many children and, as a result, our society is being dominated, more and more, by morons who lack discipline, respect, morality, intellect or a work ethic.
It is destroying this country.

Today it was unbearably hot. Too hot to run, too hot to move, and my window air conditioning unit just wasn't cutting it. And so, I dragged a friend with me to Over the Rhine to visit Street Pops.
For $3 dollars, you get an all-natural popsicle that tastes better than anything you'll buy in a store. This trip I had the kaboom pop which was made in honor of the Fourth of July and reminiscent of the bomb pops I used to buy from the ice cream man. The top layer was made of raspberry lemon. The middle layer was made lemon buttermilk. And the bottom layer was made of blueberry lemon. The lemon buttermilk was my favorite part. It was rich and creamy. I would mind an entire popsicle made of that flavor. Overall the popsicle was very fresh. There was no artificial blueberry or raspberry flavor here.
I'm not sure how much longer the kaboom pop will be available so it's best visit the shop sooner rather than later. Street Pops has a brick and mortar store on Main Street in OTR. And they usually have a cart set up for special events in Washing Park. But look here for a definitive list of Street Pops locations.
Check out the long list of flavors here. I need a few more ways to beat the heat this summer.

Estate Law
Estate Law Questions? Ask an Estate Lawyer.
First of all just because family members named in a Will pass away, does not invalidate a Will. If the only Will that can be found is from 1992, and that Will was properly executed, it is a valid Will and must be admitted to the Court. The house title cannot transfer without Probate either. If the 1992 Will states that surviving sons inherit, then all the sons take per the Will. No one has the right to live in the house, rent free, and the Executor named in the Will, has a duty to admit the Will to Probate. Whichever way the Will distributes property is how the Court will order the property distributed.
You as an interested party and beneficiary should seek a probate attorney in the County where your Mother lived at the time of her death immediately. Unfortunately, if you cannot find an updated Will, her intentions to disinherit will not be honored.
Please seek a consultation with an attorney, even if the 1992 Will was invalid the intestacy laws of Idaho would prevail in this situation. Intestacy is when you die without a will.
In Idaho the intestacy law states:
15-2-103. SHARE OF HEIRS OTHER THAN SURVIVING SPOUSE. The part of theintestate estate not passing to the surviving spouse under section 15-2-102 ofthis part, or the entire intestate estate if there is no surviving spouse,passes as follows:(a) To the issue of the decedent; if they are all of the same degree ofkinship to the decedent they take equally, but if of unequal degree, thenthose of more remote degree take by representation;(b) If there is no surviving issue, to his parent or parents equally;(c) If there is no surviving issue or parent, to the issue of the parentsor either of them by representation;(d) If there is no surviving issue, parent or issue of a parent, but thedecedent is survived by one (1) or more grandparents or issue of grandparents,half of the estate passes to the paternal grandparents if both survive, or tothe surviving paternal grandparent, or to the issue of the paternalgrandparents if both are deceased, the issue taking equally if they are all ofthe same degree of kinship to the decedent, but if of unequal degree those ofmore remote degree take by representation; and the other half passes to thematernal relatives in the same manner; but if there be no survivinggrandparent or issue of grandparents on either the paternal or the maternalside, the entire estate passes to the relatives on the other side in the samemanner as the half.
So in your case, all surviving sons share in the Estate equally, with or without a Will. You have a 1/4 interest in the house, and belongings. It is to your benefit to seek legal help right away.

Australia Law
Ask an Australia Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Dear XXXXXsy,
You should contact your union. If they do not assist, you should really go and speak with a lawyer. I do not know what your employer is trying to do, but the first thing that needs to be rectified is wages from 2006/07. The longer you leave it, the harder it will be to explain why you took so long to do somthing about it. Also, I would be asking about training on the new software program. As long as you are not trained, they can push you out of the loop. Again, raise this issue with your Union.
You could consider raising ALL of your suspicions with your Manager and when he says nothing going on, push him on that, ask him abou the CV and why your job has been changed, etc. Do not just let this situation unfold without you having any control.
Good Luck

Que Pasa? Mexican Restaurant now open
The award-winning Que Pasa? Mexican Restaurant at the Lighthouse Cove Resort complex in Dewey Beach has reopened for the 2014 season. Que Pasa is operating on weekend hours until Memorial Day weekend: Fridays, 4 to 11 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Que Pasa will transition to a 7-day operation after Memorial Day.
The popular bayside Dewey Beach establishment offers delicious Mexican cuisine with beach flair and is well known for its premium margaritas, homemade guacamole and salsa, and offers the best sunset dining in Delaware, situated on the shoreline sand of Rehoboth Bay.
"Along with reopening of the Lighthouse Restaurant, having Que Pasa in operation signals the start of summer 2014," said E. Thomas Harvey III, president, Dewey Beach Enterprises, which owns the Lighthouse Cove Resort.
Lighthouse Cove will announce future plans for the third on-site restaurant, Crabbers Cove, within the coming weeks.
The Lighthouse Cove resort encompasses the Hyatt Place Hotel; penthouse and bayside residential condominiums; retail stores and restaurants; a future conference center; and an array of public amenities. The resort redevelopment project has created hundreds of construction and permanent jobs; and is helping Dewey Beach transition to a family-friendly, 21st century year-round resort.
For more information, and for individuals seeking seasonal and summer work at the restaurants, contact Kostas Kalogeropoulos, Meyer Jabara Hotels, at 610-730-7447. For more information on these restaurants, go to www.lighthousecovedewey.com.

Criminal Law
Criminal Law Questions? Ask a Criminal Lawyer.
of course, the Parole Board can impose the remainder of any sentence when a parole is revoked. it will all depend on the recommendation of the parole agent as to is overall behavior - was he employed, etc.
you can contact his PO and see what type of recommendation they will make on your brother's behalf - it is possible that the PO can make a recommendation to continue him on parole, if he has been in compliance all those years and this is a non-violent crime he is charged with. so the best thing to do is contact the PO and try to get them on your side. they will play a huge part in what the Parole Board decides to do.
if your brother was employed, a letter of reference from the employer stating that he is a hard worker who is dependable.
if he has a family that is dependent on his salary, that will be helpful to have that noted a at the revocation hearing. also, he is entitled to have legal representation at the revocation hearing. so you might consider consulting with a local attorney who has experience in these matters to represent him and present him in the best possible light to the Parole Board.
if he has a life sentence then the Board can certainly impose that as a sentence, yes. however, it is rare they would do that, since he was paroled to begin with. they had to see some redeeming qualities in his behavior, etc.
but yes, they can. that is why if you want to help, you need to consider my suggestions. the Board will take all of that into consideration.
the Parole Board can revoke a parole merely on an arrest. it does not need a conviction - the Parole Board's standard is a preponderance of the evidence - not like in a court room where there has to be a standard of proof which is beyond a reasonable doubt.
so, i just want you to be aware that the Parole Board does not need a conviction. it can revoke simply on a charge.
however, with that being said, if he has done well while on parole, as i discussed earlier, and he is not convicted then the Board may continue him on his parole. additionally, when the Board revokes they are dealing with a "liberty interest" - that means that while there is no right to parole once the Board has granted Parole, they need a good and substantial reason to revoke it. in other words it cannot be arbitrary or capriciously
therefore, should his parole be revoked he does have a right to appeal it to the courts.
the botXXXXX XXXXXne is - it's 6 of one and 1/2 dozen of the other. if you can get a lawyer who can get the DUI dismissed that may carry weight with the Board - although it does not have to because as i explained the Board does not need a conviction
if you hire a lawyer to handle the revocation hearing they may be able to present your brother in such a good light, with employment references, community ties, good compliance with the Parole Officer that the Board would not revoke on a mere arrest.
perhaps, now that i have explained it all to you, you might consider a consult with a local attorney to discuss both the DUI and the Parole revo hearing. maybe you can get a lawyer who will handle both for a flat fee.
if you need a referral for an attorney i suggest you contact the CA Bar Association - here is that information
please follow up here, if you still have more questions on this matter.

The WS-24 is for those who want home theater speakers that look as good as they sound. When compared to traditional surround speakers the WS-24 is more refined taking up less space while still delivering the signature high-output low-distortion sound.
Klipsch engineers managed to generate excellent output and dispersion from this slim speaker by employing an all-new proprietary technology called the XT Tractrix Horn. XT engineering advances the company's classic, proven technology to new levels of sophistication by altering the surface geometry of the horn for a wide, consistent soundstage. Also, through exclusive Wide Dispersion Surround Technology, or WDST, the WS-24 provides crystal-clear sonic detail in listening areas with less-than-ideal configurations.
Stunningly beautiful, the WS-24 features a timeless wood veneer cabinet finished in cabernet. While most of the speakers in this category feature domestic veneers, the WS-24 has an exotic, non-endangered Berlinia veneer from West Africa. The WS-24 cabinet is carefully sanded, sealed and stained. Much like in high-end furniture manufacturing, the stain is then top coated with a polyurethane finish. This spray application involves 10 coats, with sanding in-between each coat to achieve the proper thickness.

This review is from: Klipsch WS-24 Icon-W Series Cabernet Surround Speaker
Pros: 1) - Klipsch quality in the cabinet construction, as well as the rich sound these speakers provide.
Cons: -Pricing-. I purchased my first set in early November during a "Black November Deal "promo, which I confused with the "Iron Egg" lowest price guarantee promo. 8 days after my first purchase the price was reduced again. Newegg does not guarantee lower pricing, unless the product has the" Iron Egg" shield logo demonstrated on the sales page. The lower price was significant for (2) speakers, which caused me some- angst-. Yet upon reflection, I have benefited from numerous Newegg.com product deals throughout the past few years, and my first set of WS-24's was a good deal anyway. The second set was an awesome deal.
Other Thoughts: When reading the specs (details) on theses speakers, a single WS-24 has the same components inside as (2) Klipsch WB-14's, with the exception of the crossover. The WS-24 is rated at 75 watts, yet I found their sweet spot to be with 100-125 watts of power, as like the WB-14. These are excellent front/rear surround speakers.

Don't listen to that other guy.
This review is from: Klipsch WS-24 Icon-W Series Cabernet Surround Speaker
Pros: I have owned these speakers for about a year, wall mounted, and have none of the issues that the other guy assumes he would have. The speakers come with bumpers you can place on the speaker to match the offset of the keyhole wall mounts. Super easy installation and they look wonderful in my home theater room. They lay perfectly flat on my walls and look/sound amazing. These are an incredible bargain!
Cons: absolutely none.
Other Thoughts: Don't listen to the other review on here. Honestly, who reviews something if they don't even own it and then speculates as to how they would mount to a wall?

Oversight in design
This review is from: Klipsch WS-24 Icon-W Series Cabernet Surround Speaker
Pros: Looks beautiful, good design, Klipsch quality
Cons: Wall mounting not very thorough?
Other Thoughts: I don't own these, nor do I plan to. However looking at the pictures, it seems these have an obvious flaw when mounted to the wall.

INDIAS ambitious dedicated freight corridor (DFC) project is lurching from one hurdle to another, as Japanese infrastructure firms enjoying exclusivity in bidding for several projects develop cold feet, reports Rajat Arora in New Delhi.
Almost a year after Indian Railways invited bids for the R2,000-crore Vadodara-Sachin segment of the western corridor and after the deadline for placing the bids was extended five times, the national transporter could not ensure multiple bids for the stretch. And the railways, sources said, is now putting pressure on the finance ministry to renegotiate the terms of the tied loan for the western corridor from Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) so that non-Japanese bidders could also be allowed to participate.
As per the JICA loan contract, the lead partner for any project has to be from Japan and 30% of materials should be sourced from Japanese companies.
Although Indian joint ventures in which a Japanese firm has 10% stake will be treated as a Japanese company, for this purpose, but there are few such players.
Analysts said Japanese' companies disinterest is because of their inability to take up many large projects at a time, and the fact that there are only three-four Japanese players in this area.
DFC's eastern segment is part-funded by World Bank and the Railways is free to call global bids.
Sources said although four consortia Fujita-IVRCL, Sojitz-L&T, Mitsui-IRCON and Marubeni- Tata- KEC-Gammon-GMR have been qualified for the 163-km Vadodara-Sachin project, none of them has since shown interest in bidding for the same. The railways has now set a deadline of June 2 for placing bids.
Last year too, the award of 322-km-long Iqbalgarh-Vadodara route of the western corridor had got delayed due to lack of bidder interest. A senior railway delegation visited Japan to take up the matter with Japanese authorities. Subsequently, Sojitz and Mitsui came in, and the project is now to be awarded in June.
There are only three-four serious Japanese players bidding for several slices of the 1,483 km western corridor from Dadri to Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT). Their capacity is also getting exhausted as the projects seem to too big for them to tackle. We need more companies to participate, said a senior railway ministry official. The national transporter has already awarded a 640 km stretch between Rewari and Palanpur in the western corridor to a consortium of L&T and Sojitz for civil construction. The

Celebrity News
NEW YORK CITY—The former Nickelodeon actress was arrested in her New York City apartment on Thursday, May 23 for possession and tampering with police evidence. Bynes, 27, allegedly threw a bong out of her apartment window when police officers came to her door. She was then arrested for criminal possession of marijuana, reckless endangerment, as well as felony charges for tampering with evidence. Bynes was then taken to a local hospital and given a psychiatric evaluation before being taken to the police station where she was booked.
Following the arrest, Bynes has reportedly spoken up saying that the bong was actually a vase. She took to her alleged twitter account, saying, "I only smoke tobacco. I don't drink or do drugs. I've never had a bong in my life!"
The actress has also made claims that she was sexually assaulted by one of the officers who came to her apartment. On Twitter she wrote, "I was sexually harassed by one of the cops the night before last which is who then arrested me. He lied and said I threw a bong out the window when I opened the window for fresh air. I then called the cops on him. The cop sexually harassed me, they found no pot on me or bong outside my window."
NYPD is currently looking into the sexual harassment charges Bynes is alleging. The actress is still being charged on all counts since there were witnesses who report seeing Bynes smoking marijuana and that it was indeed a bong she threw out the window.

Real Housewives of New Jersey
Manzo'd With Children Premieres Fall 2014 — What Other Real Housewife Will Be On It?
Great news, Manzo fans! Not only has Caroline Manzo confirmed that her spin-off, Manzo'd With Children, will be premiering sometime this fall, but we also just learned that one of her former Real Housewives of New Jersey co-stars will be featured on the show, too. Both Caroline and Jacqueline Laurita are bidding the Real Housewives goodbye, but they are trading in drama for comedy!
Caroline took to Twitter to announce the Fall premiere.
"Thanks 4 all the love today, I decided 2 leave #RHONJ but I'll be back this fall on @bravotv with Manzo'd With Children! Love you guys!," she gushed.
Meanwhile, we pretty much already knew that Jacqueline was done with Jersey Housewives, but she took a moment to confirm the rumors.
"I can NOW confirm that I am NOT on season 6 of #RHONJ! I can't handle full time drama anymore, BUT I CAN handle part-time comedy. ;0) CYA soon," she wrote.
She then went on to explain, "U can still see me part time on #Bravo on @CarolineManzo new spin off #ManzodWithChildren I'm thrilled 2b on it! It's a lot of fun & hilarious."
Just in case anyone assumed, Jacqueline made it clear that her departure was completely her idea.
"I was not fired. I was burnt out from drama that didn't interest me. More important things on my mind. Im doing part-time on a show more upbeat," she updated.
In the end, she wished the show well and left on happy terms.
"I wish #RHONJ success! Make sure to also tune into @CarolineManzo new family spin off #ManzodWithChildren XOXO!" she concluded.
Are you surprised that Jacqueline will be on Manzo'd With Children? Sound off below!

Culture of unaccountability
United Nations forces deployed around the world on peacekeeping missions seem to have a problem handling conflict within their own ranks. A report the Government Accountability Project released Friday morning claims recent reforms in the UN's internal justice system may have improved the due rights process for employees but ultimately made it more difficult to discipline those accused of misconduct.
Over a two-year period, allegations of wrongdoing were dismissed 13 times out of 19—a rate of exoneration more than twice as high as before the reforms went into effect in 2009.
Current and former UN employees say that within the culture of the UN peacekeeping forces, there is hesitancy to report abuse or illegal activity—especially when it involves a staff member or police officer blowing the whistle on a superior.
"If staff members see misconduct in the field, most won't report it," a UN staff association representative told the Government Accountability Project. "You'll get a very brave one who will do it, but most will just close their eyes to it, because they're afraid of the consequences. They're unprotected."
One employee deployed on a peacekeeping mission said, "When there is clear misconduct, the perpetrator often gets promoted or moved. People say that it is the easiest way to get a promotion at the UN."
Currently, more than 116,000 UN troops, police officers, staff, and volunteers are operating 16 different peacekeeping missions. Recent cases of misconduct in employee ranks include the theft of UN computers, forgery of UN airplane vouchers, verbal sexual harassment, and the storing of pornography on staff computers, according to a July report from UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. When UN tribunal judges find cases of serious criminal activity, they send the perpetrators to national court systems for prosecution. Out of seven such recent cases, Ban wasn't aware of any that had been prosecuted.

Stage Left Studio to Present HOME IN HER HEART, 10/16-12/17
Margaret Morrison's HOME IN HER HEART will open at Stage Left Studio on October 16 and run through December 17. The play with music originally opened last April as part of Cheryl King's 2012 Left Out Festival.
Set against a backdrop of 1939 Nazi-threatened London, HOME IN HER HEART is the emotionally charged story of a loving relationship about to be torn asunder, not by the pending German bombs, but by the bias, racism and homophobia waiting for the couple on the other side of the Atlantic. For three years, Mrs. Claire Hicks and Miss Jimmie LeRoy have been living and performing together in the clubs of London. Jimmie has a lifetime of experience as a lesbian and as a male impersonator. Claire, a talented pianist, is with a woman for the first time, and a white woman, at that. When Hitler threatens war on Great Britain, the Embassy orders all Americans out of England and the women must face the harsh reality of returning to a segregated U.S. As they pack to leave, the specters of exile, external hatred, and internalized homophobia make the very dream of their love seem impossible.
Written by Margaret Morrison and directed by Cheryl King, HOME IN HER HEART stars Ericka L. Hart and Miss Morrision.
The play's soundtrack of haunting piano solos has been performed and recorded by Cynthia Hilts. The play also features the songs "Lady Be Good," "Embraceable You," and "They Can't Take That Away From Me," by George and Ira Gershwin and "I'm Gonna to Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter" by Fred E. Ahlert and Joe Young.
The Sound Design is by Miss King and Joe Hutcheson. The Scenic, Costume and Prop Designs are by Miss King and Miss Morrison. Ellen Rosenberg is the Technical Director.
HOME IN HER HEART will play Stage Left Studio (214 West 30th Street, Sixth Floor) on October 16 & 24, November 2, 10, 13, & 27, and December 4, 11, & 17. All shows are at 7:30 PM. For tickets, priced at $20, and more information, visit www.stageleftsudio.net.
Margaret MorrisON (Author/Miss Jimmie LeRoy) is a rhythm tap soloist, playwright, actor, and dance scholar. Critics have called her "feather-footed and musically astute." Margaret's performance and research projects explore gender, race, sexuality, and history in tap dance, and she is currently developing a Queer Vaudeville, "Miss Bert Whitman Meets Dyke Astaire." She has performed her tap-theater works at Duke University, Philadelphia Fringe Festival, PS122, BAX, Nuyorican Poets Café, Symphony Space, and Stage Left Studio. She's thrilled to have worked with Cheryl King since 2009 as a director, dramaturge, and writing coach. From 1986 to 2007 she toured internationally as a featured soloist with the American Tap Dance Orchestra, directed by Brenda Bufalino, and Tap City on Tour, directed by Tony Waag. She studied acting with Carol Fox Prescott, received her MFA in Dance from Hollins University/American Dance Festival, and is on the faculty of the Barnard College Dance Department. Home In Her Heart is her first full-length play.
ERICKA L. HART (Mrs. Claire Hicks) is an actor, singer, model, dancer, and sex educator. She recently sang at Amateur Night at the Apollo and, in 2010, traveled to Ethiopia to organize HIV/AIDS awareness plays for social change. She has performed lead roles in productions ranging from Shakespeare to Grease. Home In Her Heart is Ericka's NYC theater debut. She received her BA with a Minor in Theater from the University of Miami. When she's not on stage, Ericka teaches sex education to teens at Union Settlement Association in East Harlem.
Cheryl King (Director) is the creator and producing director of Stage Left Studio, in NYC, was resident acting coach at All My Children from 2007-2010, and is a playwright, director and actor. A director since 1999, she has directed over 30 productions, including Frank Blocker's Drama Desk-nominated Southern Gothic Novel, 180 Days, Taren Sterry's solo show about hospice care, and Theresa Gambacorta's The Vegas Project. She most recently presented her second solo show, Grapefruit, by Sally Lambert, at Stage Left Studio.
CYNTHIA HILTS (Piano Solos) is pianist, vocalist, composer, lyricist, bandleader, recording artist, teacher, musical director, and poet. She performs solo, trio, and with her chamber jazz octet, Lyric Fury, across the US and abroad. Award-winning composer and critically acclaimed pianist/songstress, she has also received several grants and commissions. Ms. Hilts has recorded three of her own CD's, and various other artists' CD's. Her musical persona varies from sultry jazz diva to songwriter (aka "Cincha"), to iconoclastic bandleader, to musical theatre director. Her students range from young beginners to world-class musicians seeking to expand their horizons.

ISBN13:by Bourdain, Anthony

In this long-awaited cookbook, Anthony Bourdain reveals the hearty, delicious recipes of Les Halles and the provocative tricks of the trade that have made him a celebrated name across the globe. Before stunning the world with his bestselling Kitchen Confidential and A Cook's Tour, Anthony Bourdain spent years serving some of the best French brasserie food in New York. With its no-nonsense, down-to-earth atmosphere, Les Halles matches Bourdain's style perfectly: a restaurant where you can dress down, talk loudly, drink a little too much wine, and have a good time with friends. Now, Bourdain gives us his Les Halles Cookbook, a cookbook like no other: candid, funny, audacious, full of his signature charm and bravado. So bring a sharp knife, a big appetite, and a willingness to learn, as Bourdain teaches you everything you need to know to prepare classic French bistro fare. While you're being guided, in simple steps, through recipes like roasted veal short ribs and steak frites, escargots aux noix, and foie gras aux pruneaux, you'll feel like he's in the kitchen beside you-reeling off a few insults when you've scorched the sauce, and then patting you on the back for finally getting the steak tartare right. As practical as it is entertaining, Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook is a can't-miss treat for cookbook lovers, aspiring chefs, and Bourdain fans everywhere.
Author Biography

Fed recovery aid decisions await Sandy's departure
Track Sandy HERE Pennsylvania Storm News
HARRISBURG - Decisions about obtaining federal recovery aid for Superstorm Sandy are premature and will await damage assessments next week, Gov. Tom Corbett said Tuesday.
The key step involves a formal request for a presidential major disaster declaration covering specific Pennsylvania counties. This declaration is the gateway for several types of federal recovery aid.
"This is still an ongoing event for Pennsylvania," Mr. Corbett said, adding that damage assessments can start with Sandy's departure.
Mr. Corbett was among a half-dozen governors on a phone conference call Tuesday with President Barack Obama, whom the governor said is aware of continuing challenges from the storm.
"He (president) understands that Pennsylvania is still in play with the weather," said Mr. Corbett. "I want to thank the president and FEMA for what they have been doing on our behalf."
Mr. Obama issued a more limited emergency declaration Monday for Pennsylvania that provides federal aid to supplement state and local emergency preparations for Sandy starting last Friday.
A subsequent presidential major disaster declaration could pave the way for federal grants to individuals to meet disaster-related needs, housing for up to 18 months to displaced individuals and low-interest loans to businesses for property loss and economic losses or the opening of recovery centers. Such a declaration was issued in 2011 after Tropical Storm Lee.
The damage assessments done by state and county emergency management officials determine how comprehensive a declaration is, according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. It can cover individual assistance only, public assistance only, or both.
