Patient: We are trying to conceive from past 3 months. But past 2 months my periods were abnormal it was just a little brown discharge and this months it was orange in colour for only few minutes a day. I'm worried wat's happening to me?
Doctor: Hello,Thanks for the query to ATD,The very fact that you have had earlier normal flow menses and that since last two months the menses have been scanty, it shows that either you have been too stressed out these day regarding pregnancy that it has affected your hormonal balances and have hence caused a progesterone excess leading to scanty menses following scheduled withdrawal.Or if any organic cause need to be ascertained then you may get a hormonal profile done for thyroid, and prolactin and day 21 serum progesterone levels which can help understand the cause / deficiency associated and can be treated accordingly. You may visit your physician for an examination and opinion.I hope I have answered your query in detail,Wishing you good health,Regards

Made Coma for the 2nd YYGGMCIRCRDC, which placed FIRST OUT OF SIX HELL YEAH. Well actually it's not that great because a lot of people came in during the middle of the competition and therefore didn't have a chance to do a full-blown game. It was a tie between my game and creativebunch's until the tiebreaker judge leaned it to my side. The game actually sucks a fair amount; my favorite in the compo was by far Goebbels' entry. He makes a bunch of art games, they're all pretty cool. That one's his best, easily.

Is Emotion Tracking the Next Big Thing?
Is Emotion Tracking the Next Big Thing? It seems we're entering the age of emotion tracking. There's been some activity in facial tracking and emotion recognition for a while. Particularly in advertising. But it's never really been on a consumer level. Until now…
Written by Cate Trotter
Imagine if retailers had access to emotional data for every customer. How could they respond? If a customer entered the store feeling stressed, it could be that they are in a hurry or need something urgently. The retailer could recognize that emotion and send an assistant over to help them get what they need quickly. If a customer came in feeling sad, the retailer could send them a personalized offer to try and lift their mood. If a customer is tired they could open up another till or send an assistant over with a mobile POS system to stop them waiting around in-store. And if a customer is already happy it could be the perfect time to show them a new product they might like.
Or it might be that a retailer can recognize how a customer's mood changes as they travel around the store. If they become annoyed when looking at a certain item it could be that it's not in their size. This presents an opportunity for the retailer to send an assistant over who could offer to order the item in or transfer it from another store. Or the retailer could send an email to the customer enabling them to order that item online.
This also works if the customer grows happy in certain parts of the store. Retailers can pinpoint the products that lifted their mood and suggest other items they might like. It could provide insights into the ranges that people want to see and those they don't.
Or it may be able to show retailers what works when it comes to store design. What are customers responding to – whether in a good or bad way? And it could help them know exactly when pressure points such as queuing start to impact on customer moods. How long a wait is too long?
Within a shopping centre or area with lots of stores, retailers could use emotion tracking to direct customers towards them. For example, if the customer seems to be tired a nearby coffee chain could ping them an offer or remind them they have their favorite product available.
Of course having access to the data is one thing. Customers would need to choose to share the data with retailers. The highly personal nature of data is one barrier to sharing it. Customers would need to see an extremely strong benefit in doing so.
Likewise, the thing missing from emotion tracking is context, which is key to understanding why customers feel the way they do at any particular time. As mentioned, facial recognition is an area that has been connected to emotion tracking for some time. And just this year Apple bought Emotient, an AI start-up that reads emotions by analyzing facial expressions, showing even tech giants are looking at the space. This area could lead into analyzing body language as well.
It could easily be incorporated into in-store mirrors and digital displays to let retailers track how customers respond to what they see. In turn this could help retailers change their adverts to resonate with certain groups of customers.
There could even be scope for retailers to provide in-store emotion trackers that customers can wear while they shop. They could then analyze the data and help guide customers on their purchases. For example, when clothes shopping they could see which colors or styles made the customer happier.
With so many potential applications, emotion tracking could be a key element of future retailing. After all, the role they already play in many purchases shouldn't be ignored. And it may not be that long before retailers can harness them as well.

text: Hi all, I went through the classical problems with the TOD files and the wish to work on them with IMovie 09 on my Mac. I now have found Iverio, a small program (expensive!) that converts the TOD files to a range of other files, but typically .mov. That makes it possible to import them in IMOvie. Problem is that so many resolutions are possible. What is for regular all day family use the best compromise: I can film in Full HD, 1440 CBR and SP. Some say only 1440 CBR should be used for Mac. Then, I can convert to .mov files as HD, but when I choose the Mac compatible resolution I have to choose between a whole raft of resolutions from 480x360 right through to 1980x1080 and each resolution can be converted to i or p as well. What should I do, can you please help? I want to make some good looking DVD's but realise if I want to burn it to DVD then space is a premium ?Thanks !!

Best Parks in many ways emulates the Leading Hotels of The World network and we are learning more every day from that operation," said David Gorin, BPA President.
McLean, VA. (PRWEB) September 11, 2012
Best Parks in America, the industry's premier association of highly-rated RV parks and campgrounds, has announced that it will hold its inaugural National Network Conference in Orlando, Florida, November 13 – 15, 2012. In previous years, Best Parks has held its network meetings in conjunction with the annual convention of the National Association of RV Parks & Campgrounds but as the network has grown and as the industry evolves the association leaders felt the time was right for Best Parks to hold a stand-alone conference.
The conference is scheduled in Orlando to enable park owners to also attend the annual exposition of the International Association of Amusement Parks & Attractions (IAAPA) held each year at the Orange County Convention Center. Best Parks arranged a discounted show admission for parks attending the BPA show.
The conference will feature a kick off Keynote Conversation, a new meeting format created by Best Parks to enable the speaker, select panelists and the audience to participate actively in a conversation on the important issues facing the Best Parks system. The Conversation will begin with a presentation by Paul McManus, recently-retired President & CEO of Leading Hotels of the World, who will address how independent hospitality businesses are addressing three key issues – competition from large chains and franchises, incorporating state of the art technology into their business, and how properties are adapting to today's travel and outdoor recreation consumers.
A panel of hospitality industry experts will expand on the three key areas of discussion and an open conversation with all present will allow exchange between affiliate park owners, McManus and the panel experts.
"We're very excited about our first National Network Conference and having Paul McManus will be great kickoff the event. Best Parks in many ways emulates the Leading Hotels of The World network and we are learning more every day from that operation," said David Gorin, BPA President.
On the first evening of the conference, President Gorin and Vice President Deb Kohls will present Best Parks in America 2013…. and Beyond, a look at the upcoming marketing and brand building activities coming in 2013.
Building on one of the most important Best Parks core values to deliver the best facilities, amenities, services and hospitality experiences in the outdoor industry, a featured conference session is entitled Best Practices: Taking Your Park from Good to Great which will include presentations by successful Best Park entrepreneurs on best practices they've developed to take their parks to success. Among topics to be is park expansion, seasonal operations, operations, investor-owned parks, ownership parks and, driving revenue through technology.
Other featured sessions will include Making Data Driven Decisions and Using Soft Branding to Drive Business. Presenters include Blake Ashdown of Sure Vista Solutions (a Best Park partner) and Joe Opp, retired Senior VP of Branding for Leading Hotels of the World.
Both evenings of the conference will offer networking dinner receptions for all attendees to get acquainted build relationships and offer opportunity to do business together.
The final morning of the conference is set for affiliate workshops during where attendees will help shape the Best Parks brand and experience. Workshop topics include In Park & External Marketing & Advertising; Crafting the BPA Consumer Experience; Training Staff in the BPA Way; Features of the BPA Loyalty & Rewards Program; Internet Reservations: Critical or Not?
Parks not currently affiliated with Best Parks in America but believe they are highly rated and would like to learn more about affiliation or attend the conference as guests are invited to contact Deb Kohls for details. Deb can be reached at 714.698.9509 or at [email protected]
Best Parks in America is the leading national network of premium-level outdoor hospitality properties representing the finest RV resorts and campgrounds in the US. Its mission is to organize and promote an exclusive group of independent outdoor resorts, including destination campgrounds, luxury RV parks, romantic cabins and expansive self-contained RV resorts. Established in 2003 by forward-thinking leaders in the outdoor hospitality industry, it started with 21 initial members. Today, the current affiliated Best Parks in America are independent and unique and all are committed to delivering rich, authentic experiences their guests have come to expect in their vacation experience. To be welcomed into the Best Parks family of outdoor destination resorts, each property must adhere to strict quality standards and be committed to offering the best in hospitality services.

Mercury is almost out of retrograde, but don't celebrate too much just yet. This is still an excellent period for us to be pragmatic in our choices. Make sure to have as much information as possible before committing to anything through Oct. 9. Avoid any legal entanglements. We should be aware of our emotions and how we respond to others. Our feelings can guide us to what we most desire or what we no longer need. Pay attention to communications, and ask questions if anything is unclear. We should remain vigilant about our mercurial mood swings.
LIBRA – Brainstorm
September 23/24 – October 22/23
Stay grounded during your birthday month. Keep partying and general tomfoolery to a reasonable level. Use this time to plan for the future by brainstorming and daydreaming. Don't rush anything the rest of this year. Enjoy the process of discovery. Muse over any conflict before rushing in to fix problems as they arise. Collect your thoughts and balance your wisdom with experience and common sense. You might feel anxious and worried about the unknown. Relish the unexpected by embracing the surprising twists of fate. There's plenty of time to deliberate.
Brainstorm at Museums.
SCORPIO – Compare Contrast
October 23/24 – November 22
Compare and contrast will be the underlying themes for Scorpions this month. You'll want to gather estimates or information before deciding on any one thing. Weigh the benefits beyond just the monetary. Approach offers from sources with guarded enthusiasm but stay curious. A major life event like relocating or a new job could challenge your daily routine with uncertainty. Look at this as a chance to spread your wings and soar to greater heights. Consider your position right now and ask yourself if it's time to move on, venture forward or stay the course.
Compare good deals on our Shopping Page.
SAGITTARIUS – Silence is Golden
November 23 – December 21/23
No contact could be the solution for a tricky relationship issue. Avoid over-explanations now. Your emotions will be a reliable gauge this month, so rely on how you're feeling. Pay attention to the way others make you feel too. Keep your opinions to yourself. Resolve conflicts with silence. The less you say the better. Negotiate if you must, with conviction. Settle for nothing but the best deal. Surround yourself with anything that inspires wonder and general well-being. Make family a top priority and it could help you see what matters most and isn't worth sacrificing.
Stay silent seeing a Film.
CAPRICORN – Slipping Masks
December 22/24 – January 20
The masks you wear could be slipping. Be mindful of how you compartmentalize your personality to suit various areas of your life. At work, you act one way, at home, another. The friendly face you wear could be as different as the one you put on in times of trouble or stress. We all have multiple facets to our personalities, but you might find yourself confused by the roles you've been playing. Wear the corresponding expression to match the corresponding emotion without fear or shame. Be in sync with who you really are and your outward portrayal.
See others wear masks at the Theater.
AQUARIUS – High
January 21 – February 18
Open yourself up to innumerable opportunities this month. Get out and about with zeal. Strange situations and welcome surprises could occur, especially among friends and colleagues. Go with it, and have confidence in whatever arises. Your calendar will be filled with special events, meetings, and anything that interests you. Activities specially tailored to your predilections can inspire your creativity and intellect. Align yourself with birds of the same feather. Keep your social circle free of toxicity or clingy folks as they'll only bring you down from your high, AQ.
Get high with Nightlife.
PISCES – Fretting Over Finances
February 19 – March 20
Finances can be a major stressor this month. An upcoming trip or big expense could have you fretting over your expenditures. Relax, but do be frugal the next few weeks until it is resolved. Legal issues may also arise unexpectedly. Stay impartial and reasoned. Don't fan the flames. Your home life is still a bit too hectic in spite of your best efforts. Try to find a way to maintain equilibrium to better help you accomplish your goals. Accept that this year may be a growing pain or spurt depending on your perspective. Reach out to old contacts for advice or banter.
Don't fret with Comedy.
ARIES – Coalesce
March 21 – April 20
Stay away from anyone who makes you feel uncomfortable. Maintain good boundaries over the next few weeks. Don't be a push over. Push back when tested. Avoid overindulgence too. Keep a clear mind and eat healthily. Explore holistic methods and homeopathic remedies for small physical issues. Low impact exercise can help your body as well as your spirit. Be expressive with your feelings. Spend time with family and loved ones in a nurturing environment. Reflect during this period on your goals, dreams, ambitions, and immediate needs. Do they coalesce?
Get it going with Health & Fitness.
TAURUS – Cloud Nine
April 21 – May 20/21
You're on cloud nine. Everything is coming up for the Bulls lately. New relationships, maintaining old friendships, a new job, more money and more have been popping up all over. If this doesn't sound entirely accurate, then either there's a glass half empty attitude distorting your good fortune or you're just in time to start experiencing all these benefits and bonuses. Sure, nothing is 100% perfect or easy. There will be stressful situations in all areas of life. For right now, things are pretty good wouldn't you say? Practice gratitude and appreciation now.
Stay on cloud nine at Festivals.
GEMINI – See Both Sides
May 21/22 – June 21
It'll be hard making difficult decisions this month. You're likely seeing both sides of the problem. Use this ability to your benefit. Somewhere in the middle, might be the best solution. Reflect on similar situations in the past. Examine how you handled it and take this as an opportunity to do better or learn from previous mistakes. Handle relationship rows with diplomacy. Simply walk away if the disagreement becomes too heated. Maintain composure, and others will follow your lead and act accordingly. Expect kudos and high praise at your job. You deserve the credit.
See both sides with Tours & Excursions.
CANCER – Boundless
June 22 – July 22
You're seeing all the sights your pair of eyes can take in. Boundless energy is pushing you to explore, navigate and experience everything life has to offer. It's a true joy to find happiness in the simplest pleasures, but also invigorate the everyday with curiosity and zest for anything. A transitional life event could throw a wet blanket on your buoyant mood, however, but it is up to you if you'll let this spoil your fun. Embrace your closest friends and allies. Keep them close. Be grateful for what you have had and for what you will gain in the future. Let go of any anxiety.
Be boundless with Dance.
LEO – Control Other People?
July 23 – August 22/23
Don't try to control other people's behavior this month. Let dynamics play out naturally. This doesn't mean you need to slink off into the shadows or be a doormat, but if your attempt to anticipate every reaction among your nearest and dearest, you could be disappointed. Be straightforward and direct. Express your opinions with that regal confidence. Back down from a fight only if you stand to win the battle but lose the war. Avoid any co-dependents or anvil hanger-on's, nere do wells and manic personalities. You cannot handle the theatrics right now.
Control yourself with Books & Readings.
VIRGO – In Knots
August 23/24 – September 22/23
Irritations on the home front will see you depleted of your good mood. Difficult decisions concerning your finances and future may also have you tied up in knots. Tackle on thing at a time, and try to find the humor in any situation. Anxiety about the future should be tabled for the time being—it can wait. Stay in the moment in the meantime. Avoid doing more than you're feeling up to as your well-being should be your first priority. Treat yourself to an updated look. A sassy haircut or a fresh wardrobe can boost your sagging spirits. Look the way you want to feel.
Untie yourself with Fashion & Style.

Piracetam Pills, Tablets, Capsules and Powder, How Long do Piracetam Pills Last?
If you've been searching for a supplement that will enhance the function of your brain, chances are you've heard of Piracetam. The substance was created in Belgium in the 1960s, and can significantly improve your memory. Before you make this supplement a part of your health routine, here are some things you should know. Piracetam pills are very widely used and are actually quite strong. For more information, subscribe to our blog for a free sample of nootropics worth over fifty dollars, comment down below with your questions or concers and we'll get back to you within one business day, and be sure to checkout the categories on the right hand side of this page for more information on dozens of other potent nootropics!
What Is Piracetam, and Why Are Piracetam Pills So Popular and Effective?
Piracetam is a recurring substance that is similar to GABA. It can be used to enhances your memory and to reduce cognitive impairment. In addition to using the supplement to improve brain function Piracetam can be used to alleviate depression and anxiety, and can reduce the symptoms of alcohol withdrawal. Piracetam can also be used for individuals with Down Syndrome, since it keeps the brain from aging so rapidly, and is beneficial for preventing seizures and epileptic episodes.
Benefits of Piracetam Pills, and Review of The Pills on Longecity
Piracetam can improve sensory reception, since it contains acetylcholine, which is connected to the sensory perceptions of smell, sight ant touch. People who use Piracetam for the first time report an improvement in utilization of the senses fairly quickly, which speaks to how potent the supplement is.
Better memory is also a benefit of Piracetam. Since the receptors for glutamate and acetylcholine are working better in the body after taking Piracetam, details from stories and events become more noticeable, and it's easier to remember detailed information from a lecture or meeting. Piracetam also make studying and learning easier, which is why a number of students turn to this supplement, particularly during exam season.
Piracetam can also improve your mood and give the body more energy. The supplement can ward off feelings of depression and laziness, which can raise your motivation and give you the push you need to study or go over important material.

What is the Best Dosage of Piracetam Pills?
Piracetam can be taken in capsule or powder form. The capsules usually contain between 400 and 800 mg per pill. The ideal dose for Piracetam is between 500 and 5000mg daily, depending on your needs. It's best to take Piracetam two or three times a day, instead of taking the entire recommended dosage at once.

Side Effects of Piracetam Pills
Piracetam is generally safe for most people, but there are still some side effects to look out for. While no side effects from Piracetam have been fatal, some individuals experience headaches after taking the supplement. This can often be remedied by taking choline with the Piracetam dose.
How to Use Piracetam Pills Properly at an 800mg Dosage
If you're only looking for the cognitive advantages Piracetam provides, it's best to abide by the general dosage recommendations.
If you're using the supplement to prepare for a night of partying, take the dose right before going out for drinks. Then take another dose as soon as you return home. This will shield the brain from alcohol-related damage and can eliminate hangovers. Just remember that Piracetam makes alcohol more potent, so don't drink as much as you normally would if you're taking the supplement.
Piracetam pills, due to their potency and effectiveness as a Smart Drug supplement, are very commonly stacked with a wide variety of other nootropics. These generally include:
Aniracetam-Five times more potent than Piracetam and with a host of other beneficial effects that Piracetam lacks such as anti-anxiety. The drug's anti-anxiety effects have made it hugely popular among entrepreneur's and nootropic biohackers, especially among successful users like Tim Ferris and Dave Asprey, of who have claimed they use the drug for speeches atop Modafinil, because of the potent stimulation that it gives them. If that's not proof that Smart Drugs work then I don't know what is!
Oxiracetam-The speedy racetam, is around fifteen times more potent than Piracetam overall!
Pramiracetam-Thirty times more powerful than Piracetam, and with some very noticeable effects on memory, mood, focus and energy levels. The most powerful natural Racetam on the market without any added isomers!
Phenylpiracetam-One of the strongest stimulant nootropics known to man. Phenylpiracetam is essentially the original Smart Drug Piracetam, with an added Phenyl molecule to its base, meaning that it increases dopamine fairly significantly alongside acetylcholine. It still requires a choline source in order to function properly, however has very potent stimulant and euphoric effects on par with that of Adrafinil and Modafinil.
Adrafinil-A very potent stimulant Smart Drug and pro drug of Modafinil. Adrafinil is a legal analogue of the drug in the United States, Most parts of Europe, China and India, and is one of the most popular nootropics currently on the market.
Hydrafinil-Another stronger analogue of Modafinil that is so strong that I wouldn't really recommend stacking it with anything. Hydrafinil is four times stronger than Provigil and Modafinil, twice as strong as Armodafinil, ten times stronger than Adrafinil, and is deemed "the real Limitless pill" on many popular nootropics websites, blogs and internet forums.
Tianeptine-A potent anti depressant and legal nootropic in the US. It is quite dangerous and addictive and we would not advise that you take the drug. There was actually just a recent lawsuit in the United States by a top company Powder City that forced them to close down, and to the best of my knowledge they are still hashing out the lawsuit in litigation at the moment of me writing this blog post.
Fladrafinil-A potent Modafinil analogue that is also legal and that is about 2 steps up from Hydrafinil and Adrafinil, though it is very difficult to find a reliable source of it.
Modafinil-The grandaddy of all stimulant based nootropics and analogues, Modafinil is called the "CEO's drug" due to its very potent stimulation effects and benefits it can have on users.
Provigil-A brand name for Modafinil and a popular and widely prescribed one at that.
Armodafinil-Twice as strong as Modafinil, and is the strongest wakefulness promoting stimulant currently on the market. Brand new FDA approved and recently minted nootropic.

Bullish engulfing highlights a likely reversal for FTSE
Yersterday saw the 38.2% Fibonacci support hold as the bullish signals across many of the markets held up to push markets into a new move high. The MACD histogram bottom, coupled with yesterday's cross on the stochastic in an oversold region, points to a period of upside to come.
However, I would be aware of the signs that possibly indicate we may have seen the beginning of a more protracted move lower. The trendline breaks, accompanied by a failure to create a new higher high and higher low means that this bounce could fall short of the 7065 mark. Thus I am bullish and see the major support for the FTSE 100 coming in at 6808, yet any upside could see sellers come in at the 20/100-day SMA confluence or the 50-day SMA and 6975 resistance zone.

Australian scientists set a milestone in solar cell efficiency by claiming a new solar cell array which is 34.5 percent efficient at converting unfocused sunlight into electricity, edging closer to the theoretical limits of sunlight-to-electricity conversion of 53 percent by solar cells.
The new record with a 28 cm2 mini-module embedded in a prism, according to the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory, is a 44 percent improvement over the previous record made by Alta Devices of the USA, which reached 24%, over a larger surface area of 800-cm2.
Mark Keevers and Martin Green of the University of New South Wales (UNSW) say the new solar cell array is far beyond most commercially available silicon photovoltaics, the types found on rooftops and in solar farms, which top out at around 16 to 18 percent efficiency.
The record-setting device combines a silicon cell on one face of a glass prism, with a triple-junction solar cell on the other. The triple-junction cell uses three layers of semiconductor materials to target different wavelengths of sunlight: indium-gallium-phosphide, indium-gallium-arsenide; and germanium. Additional wavelengths are reflected toward a fourth layer made of silicon. This causes the cell to handle much wider range of wavelengths than is possible with a silicon cell alone, leading to increased conversion efficiency.
"The cell shaped like a prism passively gathers light coming from a wide range of angles. The prism also guides the light from the triple-junction cell on one side to the silicon on the other", Martin said.
Although the device is costlier than conventional solar cells due to the complexity of the design and the cost of the materials, the manufacturing cost may be offset by increased efficiency. Materials such as copper-zinc-tin-sulfide and perovskites well suited for photovoltaics can result in reduced costs, he added.
Further, the researchers say they are aiming for a cell with a conversion efficiency of 40 percent. They'd already achieved that with a cell that used a lens to concentrate sunlight, but this design would not require a lens.

HOLLYWOODREPORTER.COM – TNT is moving ahead with dramas Animal Kingdom and Good Behavior.
The Turner-owned cable network announced Thursday that it has picked up both pilots to series. Both 10-episode dramas are expected to debut in 2016; formal premiere dates have not yet been determined.
Animal Kingdom is a family crime drama set in a gritty surf community that brings John Wells (Southland) back to TNT. The Warner Horizon Television/John Wells Productions drama hails from Wells, Jonathan Lisco, Andrew Stearn, David Michod (the Animal Kingdom feature) and Liz Watts. Wells will direct the pilot from a script by Lisco. The project is inspired by the feature film produced by Watts and written and directed by Michod, and originally developed for Showtime in 2011. Ellen Barkin, Scott Speedman and Shawn Hatosy topline the cast. The pickup gives Wells two dramas on cable, with Animal Kingdom joining Showtime veteran Shameless.
Good Behavior, meanwhile, is based on the Letty Dobesh books by Blake Crouch. It reunites the author with Wayward Pines EP Chad Hodge. Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey) stars as Letty Dobesh, a thief and con-artist whose life is always one wrong turn, one bad decision from implosion — which is just how she likes it. Fresh out of prison, Letty is attempting to stay afloat — but when she overhears a hitman being hired to kill a man's wife, she sets out to derail the job, setting her on a collision course with the killer and entangling them in a dangerous and seductive relationship. Juan Diego Botto co-stars, with Crouch, Adelstein and Becky Clements attached to exec produce. Hodge, who will not be involved in the second season of Fox's Wayward Pines, is set as showrunner.
"Good Behavior and Animal Kingdom are muscular, distinct dramas that will define the new direction of TNT," said Sarah Aubrey, executive vp original programming at TNT. "We believe audiences will love watching Michelle Dockery trade in her manners for the life of a sexy, complex ex-con in Good Behavior and Ellen Barkin and Scott Speedman command an unruly family of criminals and adrenaline junkies in Animal Kingdom."
The dramas mark the latest pickups for TNT under network topper Kevin Reilly and come as the executive has been looking to make noise and cut through the clutter with edgier fare that pushes the cabler's envelope beyond stalwarts including Rizzoli & Isles.
Good Behavior and Animal Kingdom join a roster of original scripted dramas including Alienist, Transporter: The Series, The Librarians, Major Crimes, Legends and more.

'Vikings' Season 4: 10 Spoilers We Learned From The Show's Comic-Con 2015 Panel And Trailer
DESIGNNTREND.COM – "Vikings" stars Travis Fimmel (Ragnar), Katheryn Winnick (Lagertha), Clive Standen (Rollo) and Alexander Ludwig (Bjorn), along with series creator Michael Hirst, raided this year's San Diego Comic-Con on Friday, July 10, to tease the upcoming season 4 of the historical drama. The panel, which also featured History executive vice president Dirk Hoogstra, debuted a brand new trailer for the new installment, which will premiere next year. Below are 10 things we learned from the show's panel and trailer:
10) There will be a time jump.
As seen in the one and a half minute trailer, Ragnar's younger children have aged. And in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hirst confirmed that they have indeed recast some of Ragnar's sons, who "will play a bigger and bigger part in season 4."
"This has never been the Ragnar Lothbrok show, this is a show about Vikings. And again historically speaking, a couple of Ragnar's sons did become more famous than he was," explained Hirst of why the time jump is necessary. "I'm thinking particularly of Bjorn and the wonderfully named Ivor the Boneless. Ivor's story is a crucial and amazing part of season 4."
9) Ragnar will be fascinated with death.
After faking his death in an attempt to infiltrate Paris in the season 3 finale, Fimmel said during the panel that the weakened King of Denmark will be "intrigued by death" when the show returns next year. "He's got very close to death," the actor said. "A lot of this year is his fascination with death. Like Odin, who hung himself to feel how it felt to be dead."
Hirst further explained Ragnar's season 4 storyline during his interview with The Hollywood Reporter, saying that even though Ragnar has managed to return to Kattegat after a fairly long journey from Paris, "he's still desperately ill — he's at death's door."
Hirst added that "some of the early parts of next season are about the possibility of him dying and what are the ramifications of that. Who's going to rule and what will it mean if the great Ragnar Lothbrok dies now? It sets up all future possible conflicts about the consequences of him dying. You can see the people cueing up to claim power."
8) Bjorn will go on a spiritual journey.
Ludwig revealed during the panel that Bjorn will embark on a spiritual quest to become more of a man while mourning the departure of his wife Porunn (Gaia Weiss).
"He decides to figure out his life and go out to the woods. And while he's there, this bear starts stalking him," the 23-year-old Canadian actor teased. "Ironically, the bear had a bigger résumé than anyone else on the set. It was the 'Anchorman' bear. I was starstruck."
7) Rollo will marry Princess Gisla.
As seen in the trailer, Rollo accepts Emperor Charles' (Lothaire Bluteau) offer to marry his daughter, Princess Gisla (Morgane Polanski). And in return, the Viking warrior appears to turn against his own brother, Ragnar, and helps the Franks defend the city against the Northmen.
But in an interview with IGN, also at Comic-Con, Standen suggested that Rollo's allegiance to the Franks might only be part of a bigger plan for the Vikings to finally break into Paris. "The real question is: is Rollo really gonna betray his brother? Or is this gonna be another route into Paris again?" Standen teased.
6) England will still be a big part of season 4.
Even though the series has significantly expanded its "world" with the addition of Paris as a major setting, fans will still see more of Linus Roache's King Ecbert and other characters in England.
"He's a fascinating character," Hirst said of King Ecbert during the panel. "A good foil for Ragnar. There are many things they have in common, which they recognize. They may well, ultimately, get the chance to talk about some of the things they have in common."

Herpex Simplex Blepharitis
Signs and Symptoms: Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections involving the lid may present in one of two forms. The classic appearance involves an accumulation of small vesicles or pustules along the lid margin and/or periocular skin. These lesions typically have an inflamed, erythematous base. Within the first week of infection, the vesicles may ulcerate or harden into crusts.
A second "erosive-ulcerative" form of HSV blepharitis has also been described. This presentation is characterized by erosions of the lid at the Gray line or ulcers along the lid margin, or a combination of both. The lid typically displays generalized swelling and redness associated with these lesions.
HSV blepharitis is encountered primarily in children, although adults may also manifest this disorder. Presenting symptoms include pain and tenderness upon palpation, as well as increased lacrimation in severe cases. If the conjunctiva is involved, tarsal follicles may be observed along with bulbar injection and chemosis. Swollen pre-auricular nodes (pre-auricular lymphadenopathy) on the involved side is common.
Herpes simplex is actually the most common virus found in humans. A member of the Herpetoviridae family, HSV is a double-stranded DNA virus that replicates within cell nuclei. As it leaves the host cell, it becomes encapsulated and can lie dormant for extended periods. Several trigger factors, including fever, trauma, emotional stress, menstruation, exogenous immunosuppressive agents, and overexposure to UV radiation can activate the virus. Transmission typically occurs by direct contact with an open epithelial lesion or contaminated bodily secretions. Rarely, the virus may be spread by contaminated materials such as towels or tissues.
Primary ocular infections occur most often in children between the ages of 6 months and 5 years, and almost invariably present as blepharitis or blepharoconjunctivitis. In recurrent attacks, the virus usually reappears as a dendritic keratitis. Several reports of recurrent HSV blepharitis have been reported in the literature, however.
There is no specific treatment for HSV blepharitis, and most often the course of the disease is self-limiting. The use of warm saline compresses with a topical drying agent (e.g. 70% alcohol) is usually sufficient to palliate the patient. If the lesions are extensive, concomitant use of topical antibiotic ointment is prudent to prevent a secondary opportunistic bacterial infection. The use of topical or oral antiviral agents has not been proven to enhance the recovery of patients with HSV blepharitis, although it is advocated by some practitioners for more severe cases. However, topical trifluridine (Viroptic 1%) is absolutely indicated in cases presenting with corneal involvement.
The use of topical steroids on HSV lid lesions may be unwise, particularly if there is other ocular involvement. Although corticosteroids may be used without fear in cases of herpes zoster (HZO) blepharitis, their use in cases of HSV infection may predispose the patient to the eruption of a dendritic keratitis.
• Always include HZO in the differential diagnosis of HSV blepharitis. Keep in mind, however, that HZO typically affects elderly patients over the age of 70. Younger patients who present with HZO are often immunocompromised secondary to disorders such as AIDS or lymphoma. HSV blepharitis is usually encountered in children, but can occur at any age.
• Although herpes simplex is known as a sexually transmitted disease, the vast majority of ocular herpes infections are not contracted via sexual contact. This is very important to recognize when considering pediatric cases of HSV blepharitis.

The blepharitis treatment by tarcical. It is not the eye drops but they are tablets that are made by 100% herbal ingredients. It maintains the health of the eyes and reduces the pain. It also eradicates the itching. Tarcical is available at herbal care products. Its ingredients are Ashwagandha, Liliaceae, Gum Benjamin, Ammonium Chloride and Myrobalan. It has no side effects.ReplyDelete
Both cases, nonetheless, can be viably treated at home with the Blepharitis Natural Treatment. Here are probably the most popular home remedies for blepharitis in people.ReplyDelete
The Blepharitis Treatment begins with thorough eye examination to determine the exact cause of the eyelid inflammation.ReplyDelete
Blepharitis is normally a chronic condition connecting the inflammation of the edges of the eyelids. Coconut Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Chamomile, Honey, Aloe Vera and Potato Slices are the most useful component for Blepharitis Natural Treatment .ReplyDelete
The prognosis is good if the above Natural Remedies for Blepharitis is followed. The eyelids should continue to be cleaned to stop repeat episodes. If blepharitis symptoms worsen or continue for numerous days, it is advisable to call your health care provider.ReplyDelete

I can't believe that MES (Malaysian Examination Syndicate) actually proposed to abolish PMR and UPSR and replace it with assessment tests! Though it wasn't a heart-attack issue, it's just so... unfair. That I had to study so hard for UPSR (okay, maybe not that hard), but it's quite unfair still. I don't know why. Must I have a reason for feeling that way?
But I'm still shocked though. Ha! At least MES didn't voice out the abolishment of SPM. But I think perhaps they should do something about the English paper. Too easy.

Abolishing UPSR and PMR doesn't mean that your certificates are no longer valid, it just means that the future generation won't use it as a yardstick to measure whether a student has mastered the required subject matter, instead they will be tested continously. don't be so cemas la, it also means more work for teachers.

but also at the same time, it would mean that students can take things easily and not look forward to exams (not like the way we looked forward to UPSR, hoping that it could either pass by quickly so that we could be releived, or it would never come)

|Joe and I arrived early, and spent a little time checking out the displays in the Trail Interpretive Center.
We were joined by two regular Lake Maria volunteers, Steve and Nan. Our job was to assemble and install a foot brush station next to the trailhead, like those we have seen at other State Parks. The DNR is installing these at all parks - good idea, and a good volunteer project. There was also a crowd of Cub Scouts present to volunteer: they were put on Buckthorn-pulling duty.
First we assembled the sign. Nan had to tend to their dog, so it was just Steve, Joe and I working on this project. The instructions were for a completely different kind of sign, so we just winged it. I think that it turned out okay. The picture was facing upright, the brush was facing towards the front, easy peasy.
|Joe with the assembled sign
Our next task was to dig two holes in the ground for the posts to set in. As you can see from the above picture, the brush is well off the ground! We had to sink the posts so that the brush was right on the dirt. That meant digging two holes, about 18 inches to 24 inches deep. See that shovel and post hole digger on the left? We got to know them well.
Most of the time, Steve and Joe dealt with the shovels. I helped the Cub Scouts with the Buckthorn project. November is a good time of year to pull Buckthorn: it's one of the few bushes left that still has green leaves. So if it's green, it can be pulled up. Every once in a while I saw a Cub Scout walk by with what looked like small Aspen trees. Oh well...if they pulled 10 Buckthorns for every Aspen, we'd still be doing good.
|Begone, Buckthorn!
After a while, Joe and Steve started to tire out and we rotated digging duties. I had never used a post-hole digger before, but I got the hang of it fairly quickly.
Once the holes had been dug and all of the rocks had been pried out of them we had to mix concrete to hold the sign in place. The closest water was at a spigot about 100 yards away, so there was a bit of a rest while we dragged a few buckets back to the wheelbarrow and sign. We mixed up the concrete, held the sign upright, and filled in those holes. Every once in a while a curious Cub Scout would wander out of the woods to see what we were doing.
|Mmmm, concrete mixer
It took four bags of concrete to fill the holes. We made sure that the sign was upright by holding it into position with some framing boards and C-clamps, and we were done! Once the concrete was dry, the ground would built up a bit so that the brush rested on the dirt, instead of an inch above it.
|Joe and the completed project
Now people can brush their feet off before hiking at Lake Maria...people like me that may have brought invasive Tansy from the North Shore, or Buckthorn from across the state. Every effort helps.
|Brush off those boots, buddy

Hello. I've never been serious about dealing with my depression and anxiety. I make jokes to hide my feelings. It's exhausting. So I've come to the harsh realization that I've got to change my mind-erasing lifestyle: drinking to numb, drinking to forget.
I know the risks of drinking with depression and have read all the warnings about drinking while taking anti-depressants (I'm on Wellbutrin). But I drink. Daily. So...I'm hoping for some encouraging words or advice on managing my depression and being an alcoholic.
Quit drinking, right? Sounds like a realistic suggestion but my spouse is also an alcoholic. Co-dependency? Enabling? Yes and yes. I'm not leaving my husband so, now what?
Thanks for reading. And thanks for any suggestions/advice/criticism.

Where Is the Love?
Mother Teresa
Martin Luther King Jr.
Mahatma Ghandi
So, here's my question - who is the personification of love in our generation? Has there been yet someone to take Mother Teresa's mantle? It's kind of like asking who is the next Michael Jordan, but I am curious, where - or who - is the love?
3 comments:
- A said...
Good question, but you may not like my answer.
I don't think there is any one "Mother Theresa" -esque person, and I am glad.
When Michael Jordan is on the court, even other good basketball players tend to let him do his thing, and not necessarily give it their all.
Maybe if there isn't a worldwide "point person" for love, then everyone will take their individual responsibility to love others seriously.
In a world where Michael Jordan plays basketball, no one plays quite as hard.
In a world where Billy Graham is evangelising the world, no one shares their faith quite as much.
In a world where Mother Theresa loves everyone, no one feels the need to love their neighbor.
Maybe it is time that we all played basketball, shared our faith, and loved our neighbor. Maybe instead of having a franchise player in each arena, we need to have a bunch of hard working team mates that together accomplish more than one high paid big name could.
I'll begin by saying Yikes..to me even starting to do this...like I need one more thing to draw me in.
I love that you picked these people and while they represent some element of love, its the people they served, the people they represented, the people they died for that are the pics we should have. Millions who self-sacrifice--the millions who do only for simple goodness.
It follows exactly what "A" said...is a team without a point person possibly more effective in the long-run..folks to spread the word, folks to love big, folks through their everyday actions are all about Big Love.
No doubt Christ had an amazingly effective ministry when He was the point person, but look what He did to insure that it would continue after He was gone...some pretty amazing things happened beyond the Gospels as new point persons emerged and new teams were built.

the beatles came on in the other room just as a read this post, can you guess it was "a you need is love."

Silverquine Animal Wound Dressing Gel #Review #silverquineforpets
Silverquine Animal Wound Dressing Gel is a water-base hydro gel wound dressing for use in moist wound care management for animals. The gel contains silver that may help inhibit the growth of microorganisms within the dressing. SILVERQUINE Animal Wound Dressing Gel has been evaluated in standard tests that show it can reduce the level of common microorganisms. This dressing is safe for dogs, cats, horses or exotic pets. It can be used for minor cuts, lacerations, abrasions, 1st & 2nd degree burns and skin irritations. I had the opportunity to received this dressing gel in return for my unbiased review. This gel was ideal for my dad to keep on hand. He has hunting dogs and they're always getting scratched up. This is a nice dressing for him to keep on hand in the truck or at home to treat any wounds they may receive. With them running through the woods, he never knows if something may happen. This dressing is a very nice at-home treatment for wounds whether a vet visit is or isn't necessary. He is very happy with the results he's seen from this gel. It helps to heal wounds and keeps them from getting infected. Compared to other products he's used, this one works more quickly and seems to be more effective. He highly recommends it!

Skip to comments.TEMPLE OF DEM ON MT. O-LYMPUS
Posted on 08/28/2008 6:18:58 AM PDT by Zakeet
Democrats will kneel before the "Temple of Obama" tonight.
As if a Rocky Mountain coronation were not lofty enough, Barack Obama will aim for Mount Olympus when he accepts his party's nomination atop an enormous, Greek-columned stage - built by the same cheesy set team that put together Britney Spears' last tour.
John McCain's campaign mocked the massive neoclassical set created for Obama's speech at 75,000-seat Invesco Field. Some Republicans have dubbed it the "Barackopolis," while others suggested the delegates should wear togas to fit in among the same Doric columns the ancient Greeks believed would stroke the egos of Zeus and Athena.
"It's only appropriate that Barack Obama would descend down from the heavens and spend a little time with us mere mortals when accepting the Democratic nomination," said Republican National Committee spokesman Danny Diaz.
The McCain campaign quickly dispatched a memo calling the stage the "Temple of Obama."
"We would have expected to read something like this in The Onion. Fortunately for us, it's true. Unfortunately for Obama, it's true," a McCain adviser told The Post.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
I think the green and pink things on either side are dry ice machines. I saw Pink Floyd use them.
...And has the ears to with it..
The guy in the red shirt is not long for the world.
One of our Photoshop wizards needs to put BHO's face on Apollo. It would be just so fitting.</s>
Yes, the guy in red is always toast........I wish I had time to do Photoshop!................
Fauxbama wrapped in an upside-down American flag.
As an aside...
WBAP's Mark Davis reports from the "greenest convention" ever,
That the jumbotrons behind the podium from last nights speech's are still on! Though there is no one there!
He also reports that they have recycle bins through out the convention. "recyclable","compostable" and "landfill".
Mark reports that when they are full...you guessed it...
A guy comes by with a dumpster on wheels and they all get dumped in the same dumpster!
Ah yes, MLK that well known REPUBLICAN.
I hope the McCain camp plays off that if Obama tries to come off as the Second Coming of MLK.
The interpretation of the Lincoln Memorial looks like it was made in Hollywood.
But that isn't the point, is it?
Obama will hit a homerun tonite.
The 'rat media have ALREADY written and filed their stories for tomorrow.
I love the NYP :)
You're right.
It isn't the Lincoln Memorial.
Not on the anniversary of orator MLK's historic speech at the Lincoln Memorial on August 28 1963.
With the first black presidential nominee (and acclaimed orator) in history to give his acceptance speech on August 28 2008.
It's a greek temple.
My opinion is simple, if McCain and Obama go in to the election booth tied in the polls, McCain will win going away. And I say that with my eyes wide open.
"I believe it's supposed to resemble the Theater of Epidauros."
That's the kind of obscure reference I'd expect from Dennis Miller. No matter what it's supposed to be, its going to be a lead balloon.
"Empty" implies a "vacuum". The obama-false-messiah has filled that vacuum with something - and it ain't pretty.
Obamma-false-messiah is what happens when The Weird Becomes Flesh
The rat media will EAT THIS UP!
Yes, and they will use this, RIGHT ON CAMERA:
...So who's the lyre-playing dwarf in this remake?

UHHH!! 7:00 is early,but yea g-son went right back to sleep when we put him in my bed,but not me,I was afraid he would role out of our super high bed so I just snuggled down and enjoyed the really cool morning.He woke up at 9:00 and the first thing he said was "where's Bernie"? Bernie appeared from under the covers and then they both went under the covers and had a blast playing together for 30 minutes.We had breakfast and then g-son wrapped in a blanket and watched TV for a while.I made some phone calls to get some more estimates on our roof and maybe a new porch cover on the front of the house.One of the guys I called said he was out in this area and would be here in about 30 minutes to look it over,the other will be here at 5:00 tomorrow.G-son played outside while I talked to the man who came and when he left we were ready to come inside to warm up,it is 45 and the wind is blowing hard.G-son had a pretzel snack and I started carrying laundry downstairs. I did some housework and fixed lunch,I keep putting my jacket on and off even inside the house as it is still pretty cold and I still have my windows open.Scooby Doo came on TV and occupied g-son good enough for me to sneak downstairs and start a load of laundry without him following me down the stairs.Got a call from a friend with 2 more names of roofers and builders that I should call.
His mom came early and picked up g-son,he'll be back in the morning.I did another load of laundry and took a long cool walk ,wow it's hard to believe how cool it has gotten all of a sudden.After my walk hubbie and I rode over to a near by condo complex to buy a bike from a lady who is selling everything and moving.We need to start riding more often,I love riding bikes,but it is hard to find a place around here that's safe.Daughter came home not feeling well and went to bed.I baked 8 layers and 5 other cakes tonight,with this cool weather I have a feeling it will be a slow Thursday at market. I stuck my hand to the element in one of my ovens,I now have 2 practically cooked places on my left hand,I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.I'm listening to the news,they are talking about another tsunami that hit the American Samoa island in the Pacific ocean,I pray this one was not as bad as the one several years ago.
I have some shrubs in my yard that really stand out this time of year,most plants flowers are the attention getters,but not this one,its the berries!This is a BEAUTYBERRY BUSH ,it has small flowers in summer and then almost overnight it is covered with these gorgeous purple berries.This plant is native to the southeast,but is found elsewhere if it has been transported there.The berries are edible,they are flavorless raw,but can be made into delicious jelly that has a taste of cranberry/plum,they also make a good spicy sweet wine.The leaves of the plant when crushed have a unpleasant odor and make a very good insect repellent for mosquitoes and even ticks.Indians made a tea of the leaves and roots to treat fevers.The berries are so small I think I'll just leave them for the birds,who just love them as they do not fall off the bush and last well into winter.
Speaking of winter a sure sign of colder weather in this picture the head and ears and the feet and tail do not belong to the same dog!! Bernie and Dollie are like best friends most of the time and they both love to cuddle, even with each other.Wow it is going to get colder tonight than it was last night,brrrrr.Makes it harder to crawl out of that good warm bed in the mornings.
But I still love it!! I have this old horse collar hanging on my porch by my front door and change the decorations on it with the seasons.I love fall decorations they just make me smile! HAPPY FALL YA'LL

Calopoly is a limited addition collectable Monopoly game that was made for the University of California Berkeley's alumni, students and friends. I received one of these Monopoly editions as a present from a family friend. He gave this specific edition to my family and I because my parents are both graduates of UC Berkeley. My family and I played this game on Wednesday and found it very amusing. The properties are all named after buildings on the campus, UC Berkeley is a huge school so it has more than enough buildings to name the 22 color property spaces on the board. The Railroads were named after streets on campus and the Utilities were named Sorority/Fraternity row. The Chance cards were called Contingency while the Community Chest cards were called Campus Mail. Jail was home that you went to for Academic Probation. Luxury Tax was a Car Fine and Income Tax was Increased Tuition. Free Parking was Spring Break. The tokens were various textbooks. Houses were Credits and Hotels were Diplomas.
The rule changes in this game were very bazar. The first was the fact that all tokens started in the center of the board. The person who rolled the highest number would then move counting Go as 1 and moving forward. This game also started out with $1200. This game was played with the rule of Free Parking. One of the strangest rules was the fact that you could not pay to get out of jail right away. You had to wait 3 turns and then whatever you rolled on the 3rd roll you moved, paying $100 if it was not a double. You also had to pay 15% to unmortgage properties but we didn't play with that rule because it was too hard to calculate and we always forgot.
What I like about this game:
By far the best part of this game is the Contingency cards. They say things like "Advance any token to any space of your choice" and "Lose 2 turns" and "All Campus Party! All tokens advance to Fraternity Row". While these cards completely violate traditional rules of the Monopoly game, they are really funny. We were laughing so hard every time a Contingency card was drawn that it almost made up for the fact that the game rules made no sense.
What I didn't like about the game:
I don't like that the colors of groups were changed. The prices were messed up as well, the first 2 properties in a group were $10 less than they should have been and the last property was $10 more. I don't really like rule changes in general, but it was interesting to play with a completely different set of rules, so I had to change my strategy.
By the way, despite everything, I still won the game!
P.S. Sorry if you cant see the pictures

I would like to get a copy of this game – do you know where to buy it?

Back To Reality
Looking at the many photos taken on the old laptop of mine while camping did not think there were many good ones. Looking at them on the big screen here at home my bud and I were just blown away by what we saw. It was rather bland for colors because of overcast sky's and being just the beginning of spring where we were at. Below are some samples of what we saw. There will be more of course.
I have not read anything or listened to any politics for almost nine days now and am having a hard time going there and am not sure I want to for awhile and probably won't for the next few days. My pictures are better than the political posts I put up anyway. We'll see as starting this week work will become very intense for at least a couple months.
What is going to happen is there will a couple short movies about what we did. One is on a very intense climb to a ruin that we revisited that even amazes us and one on cooking in the desert which may provide too many chuckles on old One Fly.
Will try to get the ruin video up today.
Always good to be home but my real wish is to do this type of thing all the time - if only.
I hope all of you are good!

Great pictures Fly.ReplyDelete
Thanks Holte. Wait till you see this ruin video. I'll be over.ReplyDelete
I didn't even pick some of the real good ones here.
I live in Az. and you are absolutely on target.ReplyDelete
The four corners is the most mind cleansing experience there is. And I have been to some far out places in my life.
But nothing brings me the serenity than that part of the country.
It truly puts ones soul at ease. One of my customers is Navaho. He said he would me take up this summer to places on the Reservation that not too many people have access to.
Peyote any one???? LOL
gorgeous pics thanks!ReplyDelete
Stunning photos. Love that area and can't wait to see the rest.ReplyDelete
So much time has passed since I've enjoyed that experience. Must do it again soon.ReplyDelete
Thanks Fly, for the rimeinder...
Truly we are surprised ourselves with these as it seemed the colors were just not there.ReplyDelete
Can I go along RZ?
But it's the video we finally got up that get me.
Glad you guys enjoyed this!!!
Wow! What awesome pics!ReplyDelete

Somewhere i read that according to the quality of wine, the winemakers choose what kind of cork they are going to use ( when they decided to use corks instead of screwcaps or glass stoppers). The long corks, made of only one piece, we're reserved for the better wines, while the short, composite corks are used in the cheap ones. Is this truth??? Read More

Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most popular and widely planted red grape varietals in the world.

According to Jose Vouillamoz, a bo... Read More

I've never messed around with any Bordeaux over the $15 price range, and I'm beginning to think Bordeaux is one of those wines that doesn't really have a satisfying "cheap" version.

Blanc de Noir is a French term for "white wine from red grapes."

An early morning visit to Joshua Tree National Park. (Much-visited in its prior life as Joshua Tree National Monument by Edward Weston.)
Photos: Joshua Tree & Rocks—Joshua Tree National Park, 1999; Rocks—Joshua Tree National Park, 1999
Ooooh, such beautiful light and intriguing shapes and textures.
Thanks! Alas, due to some fiddling on my part, the rocks pix won't enlarge.
BTW, yesterday I got record high traffic, due to my cleverly working my blog into a dpreview post.
Congrats! ;-)
I keep coming back to the top picture of rock formation, sky, light and tree.
THIS really gets me!
Hmmm . . . I should probably try to print it.
I am so used now to grainless digital files that even these (relatively) recent negatives somehow make me uneasy.
