To clean up the presentation, prepare the food separately and transfer it to a clean bowl for the photo. Then with this particular dish, you might put a few fresh capers in the center of the pasta to contrast with the red sauce and to create more of a visual focus--something for the eye to latch on to.
Posted 08 January 2012 - 02:11 PM
I agree 100%.
Also, a different color bowl (or white) may make the pasta standout more.
I rotated the picture 3 degrees counterclockwise.
Yummy looking dish!

I can definitely use some advice from your eGullet shutterbugs. I've been following this thread closely, reading up on food photography on the web, and Prawncrackers gave me some good tips in the Dinner thread.
I have Leica P&S - the D-Lux 4, which is really a more expensive Panasonic Lumix from a couple years ago. I shoot in RAW, in Aperture priority, usually f2.0-3.5, +2 sharpness, +2 contrast, +2 saturation, noise reduction -1. I aim to shoot in 100-200 ISO and to keep the shutter speed at 1/60, keep the camera as steady as possible (I don't have a tripod). I shoot in 4:3 mode for food.
It's almost always dark out when I take food pictures, and the best source of light is directly underneath an under-cabinet halogen lamp above my dish-drying rack. I set the white balance on the camera to AWB or to Halogen, and then correct in Photoshop.
Below is first the picture of last night's pasta puttanesca that I posted on the Dinner thread, and then a version from this morning. Both of them I post-processed in Photoshop - mainly by using Gaussian blur on the dishrack in the background. The second one has been cropped more tightly and has a bit more saturation added in Photoshop, and is sized to 516 px width in 72 dpi, which seems to be the eGullet default thread width (otherwise the board software does additional resizing, which might result in image degradation - I'm not sure).
I didn't do a whole lot to the white balance or the colors in either one. I tried Color Balance in the second one, but none of the sliders seemed to have a huge effect on the overwhelmingly warm, yellow effect. Maybe I should have tried correcting WB first.
Any and all criticisms gladly received, from equipment to presentation of the food to composition to post-processing. I want to learn.
[edit: taking note on the comments about focal length above, I zoomed in a bit to take the photo. I don't know how close I got. The lens is 24-60mm 35 equivalent, but in reality 5-12mm, so I think shallow depth of focus is impossible, but maybe the photos look less distorted to you professionals if they're less wide-angle?
You did a great job on the blur in the first photo. Not so much in the second.
I agree with the others on the dish rack. I too have only one spot with suitable light (after dark), mine is on the stop top under the hood lights. Sometimes with enough shallow dof, the stove racks compliment the photos. When they don't I whip out my cutting board. Or, take extreme closeups where the food fills the frame. Remember, you don't have to include the whole serving dish to convey your vision.

I do try this, but it's not always so appetizing, especially with stews, curries and so on - there's just a big mound of food and you don't get a sense of the scale. At least in my experience so far.

You could always try photographing things head-on.
Like so:
Okay, perhaps not a good suggestion, but you get the idea.

In reality, a cell phone's camera is a very capable optical device. I have used my cell phone to take pictures for many of my past posts here. Used properly you will be amazed what a cell phone camera can do.
All the following pictures were taken with my cell phone.
Pictures of my dish of gulf shrimps with fiddlehead fern and beet stems.
- Picture C – Elephant garlic. Giant gloves, (compare them with the peppers), not a bad shot?
- Piture D - a macro shot of strawberry seeds.
- Picture A – a macro shot of a single brown rice.
- Picture B – a macro shot of two sesame seeds, one black and one white.
Macro shots were done by putting a magnifying glass in front of the lens.
Two important things will get you very good pictures with a cell phone camera:
Good bright lights and steady tripod.

My current phone camera takes ok pics, but I'm thinking about upgrading because I do spend a lot of time taking food snaps on my phone in this way. Does anyone here have any suggestions for a phone with a superior camera? I hear the latest offering from HTC is supposed to be pretty good in this area.

I don't expect a mobile phone to take photos as good a proper fancy camera. I don't expect my photos to be the best of the best! But I spend a lot of my time seeking out good eating places, especially of the non fancy kind, and as part of my reporting back I do like to include a basic photo of what I ate, whenever it's possible. I don't want to attract a lot of attention and make people feel uncomfortable, so my standard method is to use my mobile. Mobiles are not eye catching and exciting, they don't make people stop to see what you are doing. I like the method, I just need to get slightly better equipment and I know it's available because at the moment I'm using a comparatively basic phone camera.

what type of cell phone are you using? photos look great. what are the silver handled things in the first two photos? they look like forks, but i see the bamboo skewers seem to protrude from them--skewer handles??
Just your normal Blackberry cell phone camera.
Those are skew holders. They hold two skewers so that food will not flop around.

My trusty Canon SD800IS is starting to have issues - like I broke off part of the dial on the back. Figure it is time to investigate today's crop of pocket cameras. I use mine mostly for restaurant and restaurant food shots for my site and for twitter and facebook; tote it in my pocket most days. Looking for a replacement that is rugged, good in low light without flash and has good white balance.

Coincidentally I researched cameras with almost the exact same requirements in December of last year. Ended up with the Nikon Coolpix P300. Not a camera guy so proceed with caution.
This camera was initially suggested to me as a lower-cost alternative to the Canon Powershot S100, which was my first choice, based on the advice of people who -are- camera guys. The S100 is supposed to offer serious photographers the same quality and control they get from a DSLR, in a pocket-sized package. Having played around with an S100 since then, I feel the P300 not in the same category:
-P300 does not save RAW images, S100 does.
-P300 has smaller sensor compared to S100, resulting in less control over depth of field.
-P300 has less control immediately available to the operator, compared to S100.
On the other hand, it does offer a lot more control than other comparably-priced pocket cameras and low-light performance is IMO better than the S100. In fact I don't think I've seen a camera that takes better photos in iffy light.
The case that came with the P300 was a disappointment. I think it must be "generic Nikon pocket-sized" rather than made for this model. However, 15 minutes at a Best Buy netted me a perfectly good case for under $10 USD. Other than that, the accessories are pretty much what you'd expect.
Another feature I wanted was a short lens; one of the shortcomings of my old camera was that I often couldn't get everything I wanted into a frame with landscape-type photos. On close-up photos, however, the short lens gives you somewhat disconcerting results at first. This is easily avoided by using a bit of zoom. It's also fun to faff around with for artsy shots.
The P300 uses a proprietary battery rather than AA or AAA. You can get a spare (I did!) but recharging is done in the camera body, so you'll be out of luck if you forgot to recharge the batteries at the hotel and run out of juice right when you could get a fantastic shot of the Nepalese Royal Guard on parade.
Overall I think it's a very good camera for taking quick snaps in situations where you might not have the greatest control over light, but you might miss the fine control and RAW capabilities if you're used to a DSLR.
Posted 18 June 2012 - 09:52 AM
I was leaning towards the S100 but there are numerous customer complaints on both Amazon and Canon Store site re lens error with lens not closing and blurry pic - comments about quality control issues. Wondering if I'm smarter going with a S95?

Regarding the P300's low-light capabilities: This photo was taken in an extremely dark living room. Most of the light was coming from a rather dimly lit kitchen (you can see the fluorescent tubes reflected in the window) or from a single weak bulb outside (you can see it illuminating the leaves, I think). Anyway, look at the child's face; that's illuminated by the smartphone her daddy is holding. This thing practically has night vision.
Colors are pretty wacky but in this light, I'm not complaining too loudly. Nothing you can't fix in 2 minutes of photo editing, right?
Edited to add: Yeah this isn't the world's best pic but I'm just trying to illustrate a point, etc.

The usual set-up for me, a flash gun bounced off the ceiling. The first shot came out exactly how i wanted it, everything nicely framed and in focus:
The second shot was a bit soft, i must have been moving and the only thing in focus seems to be the very tip of the bacon. As the first shot was what i was looking for I left it at that and got stuck in before the pancakes got cold:
Loading these shots onto my pc, I brightened them up a little and I couldn't help but to love the second shot more. It's one of those situations where my head says the first shot is better but my heart says the second. There just seems to be more "emotion" in the second, more a feeling that I want to eat it again. I admit the colour temperature is slightly warmer in the second but that can't be the only reason that the first seems now more cold and clinical in comparison.
So questions are: which do you prefer and why; and how do I actually recreate something like the second in future because it was a complete fluke!?

I do have some personal preferences, because they are just preferences, they are not that important.
Rotated the picture 2 degrees clockwise. (May be 3 degrees would be better)
Enhanced contrast a tiny bit
Enlarged the backgrond so that the picture is less crowded
The bacon is more interesting than the pancakes, they are not recognizable as bacons.
Enhanced contrast
Made the background a little darker

If we had normal northern Vermont weather, we would have had ideal conditions for testing metal-edge waxless touring skis. Meaning within ten days we'd see powder, rain, ice, glop sludge, corn. What we got? A couple of weeks of cold pow, some of it wind-stiffened—sifted, you might say, if you're a baker.
But the rides were good. As I wrote in the February issue of BCM, the game changer for the ski industry was the Karhu Guide. They sold numbers that made competing companies take notice.
So for this year's testing we had the perpetrator—the Karhu Guide that's now the Madshus Annum, altered only in its graphics and a new bevel for better edge hold—and the contenders: the Fischer Sbound 112 and Sbound 98, along with Rossignol's big BC125—all named after tip size. We also had—as a curiosity—the stubby form of the Marquette Backcountry ski. All were mounted with the venerable—and just re-introduced—Voile 3-Pin Cable tele binding.
We skied on an array of touring boots, three of which (Alpina's BC 2175, Fischer's BCX 875, Rossignol's BCX 875) incorporate the hinged plastic cuffs of Cross Country skate boots, along with them, the all-plastic Garmont Excursion. We weren't doing a simultaneous boot test, but all were capable of powering the biggest skis.
We ran all the rigs up and down Cote Hill, a notable, tree-studded slope north of Stowe, Vermont whose 20-30° pitches my neighbors and I have been skiing for 20 years: Prime backcountry terrain, though close to a road.
Here's the quick take after several hours of testing: the Fischers climbed the best, the Rossis floated the best and the Madshus melded those two capabilities. Click the skis below for a review of each.
125-90-115mm | 6lb. 6oz. | $400
The Rossignol 125 drew nearly unanimous praise for their turnability. "They turned easily," said one female tester. Another added, "They almost turned themselves." And the floatation of these widebodies was also noticed. "In this slightly heavy snow it's amazing what a difference an extra 12mm [underfoot] makes," said one tester, comparing its waist to those of other skis.
112-78-95mm | 5lb. 11oz. | $395
The Fischer Sbound 112 climbed like crazy, largely, we thought, due to a waxless scaled pattern—inset in a sintered base—that was about three inches longer than those on other skis. But they turned with alacrity. "On the descent they were very quick—and suggested shorter turns," said one tester. Could we feel their "Nordic Rocker?" Hard to tell, though the fore body seemed to have a long, even flex.
109-78-95mm | 5lb. 13oz. | $340
We're with David Byrne on the Madshus Annum: "Same as it ever was." Karhu to Madshus, no disruption. Same thing with the ski: an overall smoothie. As one tester put it: "The Madshus was by far the nicest descending ski. It's fast, quick to turn and the radius seems right. The climbability was not overwhelming but adequate, and the lightness in a tour is nice—I'd take these out."
99-68-84mm | 5lb. 9oz. | $310
98-69-88mm | 5lb. 9oz. | $350
We also got on the Madshus Epoch and the Fischer Sbound 98 with predictable results. In Vermont, the Madshus had the edge on glide while the Fischer was a slightly better climber. Biff America had the Fischers in the Breckenridge backcountry and concluded: "Breaks trail like a champ and floats and carves in fluff. Turns superbly and climbs like a goat."
150-135-140mm in a single 135cm length | 9lb. 4oz. | $179
Then there were the Marquette Backcountry ski. The company bills it as "30% snowshoe, 70% ski, 100% fun." One tester inverted the first two figures, exclaiming "snowshoeing has never been so much fun!" As another said, "None of us skiers can figure out what this is." Despite climbing scales half the size of dominos, grip was indifferent. Going down a figured 40° pitch might get them running. Or a crust rendered by freezing rain—but then there are no metal edges. "Backcountry skis?" asked another tester. "They're backyard toys."
A final note: Waxless skis work best in powder less deep than what we had. And they shine in wetter snow—consider them corn snow cohorts, Sierra sneakers. I really got the point a few years ago when I skied the same areas and lines in the Sierra that I'd skied 15 years earlier. Only I wasn't ripping and reattaching hides with the maddening frequency that I had before. Paired with light Garmont AT boots and Silvretta Pure bindings, waxless Karhu Guides were a joy. Think of this as a premlinary test. Check the BCM website; we'll be updating. And more models are on the way.
Many thanks to my fellow Trappazoid testers—all of us associated with the Trapp Family Lodge Ski Touring Center—Charlie Yerrick, Bill Henchey, Tim Griffin and Sam von Trapp, along with testers Holly Howard and Carrie Cook. And a big mahalo to my neighbors for favors great and small: Doug Cross, Brian Cote, Tom Cote and John Monett, the latter for some deft plowing that let us stash gear-laden cars. —JD

Comments about COLUMBIA Girls' Lake of Lace Jacket:
This jacket came on time for our trip to Alaska - thanks to the fast delivery. My girl wore it every day there - it works as both a rain jacket and a wind-breaker. The "very pink" color is her favorite and the design is stylish. I bought one size up so that she can grow into it. Very happy with this purchase.

Maitresse Narrow Garter-Belt

Maitresse Narrow Garter-Belt
In the 1950s, it was common to find both narrow and deep garter belts. Which you flavor is entirely a matter of personal preference, so the choice up to you! This cute little belt is only 3.5 inches deep, and is primarily made from stretchy powermesh, with a non stretch satin panel at the front. The narrower style is easier to wear knickers over, which in turn makes calls of nature a breeze! Waist sizes from small to 3x Large. The six Garters have metal clips, and will both hold your stockings up securely, and stop your seams firmly in place. Imported from the UK by Girdlebound for our discerning clients.
Maitresse Thong
Code: L5031
Price: $19.00
Quantity in Basket: none
Maitresse Thong
Although thongs weren't common in the 1950s, they were certainly a key item in burlesque artistes' lingerie drawers! We were inspired to add a version to our Maitresse collection in homage to those glamorous vintage queens of erotic dance. Lower-rise than the deep Maitresse panty, the thong features a satin section at the front and a flirtatious frill around the top, as stretchy powermesh for a comfortable fit. Available black. Waist sizes from small to 3x Large. Imported from the UK by Girdlebound for our discerning clients.
Maitresse Bullet Bra
Code: L6001
Price: $50.00
Quantity in Basket: none
Maitresse Bullet Bra
A beautifully crafted soft-cup bra that is supportive, comfortable, 100% period perfect, and definitely What Katie Did's signature product. Unlike modern bras, which push the breasts inwards and upwards, The Maitresse Bullet Bra gently coaxes your breasts into the perfect 1950s conical shape. It's actually very healthy to wear non-wired, soft cup bras on a day-to-day basis, and our bullet bras are deemed to be so supportive that one customer even wears hers to the gym in lieu of a sports bra. We wouldn't recommend everyone does the same, of course! What Katie Did was the first company in the UK to revive the bullet bra over a decade ago, adapting an original 1950s pattern and adding several more cup sizes to suit modern figures. We seem to have 'inspired' several other companies to produce their own since then, both here and in the US. We firmly believe that due to our strict quality control process and the consummate skill of our seamstresses (the technique can take up two years to learn to perfect the intricate spiral stitching required for each bra), our original version is still the best by far! Available in either black or white and cup sizes: 32 BCD, 34 BCD-DD, 36 BCD-DD, 38 BCD-DD and 40 BCD-DD

You've seen the promotional clips, you've heard the oddsmakers' verdict. This Saturday night in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Stephan Bonnar will attempt to pull off a historic upset when he faces pound-for-pound king Anderson Silva in the main event of UFC 153.
If "The American Psycho" does beat "The Spider" in his home country of Brazil, he will undoubtedly find his way to this varied list of upsets. But despite the diversity on display below, the one thing all the winners had in common is that they didn't care about the odds or public perception; all they cared about was winning the fight. And when the gloves are on and the Octagon door is shut, that's all that matters.
In chronological order…
UFC 1 - Royce Gracie-Ken Shamrock I (Watch Video)
All you needed to do was look at Royce Gracie and Ken Shamrock side by side to wonder 'how in the world is this skinny kid from Brazil' going to beat this monster?' Throw in the fact that Shamrock knew the "mysterious" submission game employed by Gracie as well, and the odds in his favor shot even higher. But on this night, Gracie was not to be denied as he put a new sport on the map with a brilliant three fight / three win performance that was epitomized by the win in the middle over Shamrock.
UFC 3 - Keith Hackney-Emmanuel Yarborough
In the early days of the UFC, it was hard to get a read on some of the competitors in this brand new fighting venue, so you usually judged fighters by their appearance. And when 200 pound Keith Hackney faced off against 600 pound Emmanuel Yarborough, you feared for Hackney's safety. Well, at least you did until the fight started and Hackney dropped his opponent with the first strike he landed. From there, it was all Hackney as he halted Yarborough in less than two minutes.
UFC 14 – Maurice Smith-Mark Coleman
Just as jiu-jitsu ruled the early days of the Octagon, wrestling had taken over in 1996, and as 1997 dawned, the man on the top of the heap was "The Godfather of Ground and Pound," Mark Coleman. But kickboxing star Maurice Smith was about to turn the MMA world on its ear, and at UFC 14, he stunned observers with a style that was soon to be known as "Sprawl and Brawl," as he tossed off Coleman's takedown attempts and pounded out a decision win that earned him the UFC heavyweight title and handed "The Hammer" his first ever loss.
UFC 15 - Randy Couture-Vitor Belfort I (Watch Video)
As you can tell with a quick glance of this list, Randy Couture made a career out of beating the oddsmakers, and it all began with his October 1997 thrashing of then-unbeaten Vitor Belfort. At the time, the question wasn't who would eventually beat "The Phenom," but if he would lose at all. Couture took all of eight minutes and 17 seconds to answer both questions as he pounded out a TKO victory.
UFC 35 - Jens Pulver-BJ Penn I (Watch Video)
Despite his status as UFC lightweight champion and a veteran competitor of the sport, Jens Pulver was a prohibitive underdog when he took on "The Prodigy," BJ Penn, at UFC 35 in 2002. And for two rounds, the oddsmakers were right, as Penn dominated and almost submitted the champion at the end of round two. But for the next three rounds, "Lil' Evil" emerged, pounding out a five round majority decision that was the time capsule moment in the career of the UFC's popular (and first) lightweight champion.
UFC 38 – Ian Freeman-Frank Mir
In 2002, Frank Mir was the UFC's Golden Boy in waiting, a charismatic young heavyweight with off the charts talent. Ian Freeman, competing in front of his countrymen in the UFC's first visit to England, was a grizzled veteran fighting with a heavy heart due to the illness of his father. Inspired, Freeman shocked Mir and the world with an emotional first round TKO win. But the celebration was tempered by the news that Freeman's father had passed away shortly before the bout, with "The Machine" not being told until after the fight concluded.
UFC 43 – Randy Couture-Chuck Liddell I (Watch Video)
After taking back-to-back losses at heavyweight to the much bigger Ricco Rodriguez and Josh Barnett, Randy Couture's drop to the 205 pound weight class was seen as a move of desperation to save a career on the downswing. Facing the feared Chuck Liddell in his first light heavyweight bout was just going to hasten Couture's demise. But the one person not counting Couture out was the man himself, and he not only beat Liddell, he stopped him in the third round and began the second act of one of the fight game's most amazing careers.
UFC 46 – BJ Penn-Matt Hughes I (Watch Video)
BJ Penn came up short in his two previous shots at UFC gold, losing to Jens Pulver and drawing with Caol Uno. What made him think that he could beat Matt Hughes, and 15 pounds north at welterweight to boot? It's the confidence that made "The Prodigy" one of the greats, and he delivered a defining performance in submitting a stunned Hughes at 4:39 of the first round to win the UFC 170-pound title.
UFC 57 – Marcio Cruz-Frank Mir I (Watch Video)
Less than two years removed from a serious motorcycle accident that took his UFC heavyweight title and almost his life, Frank Mir returned to the Octagon in February of 2006 to face jiu-jitsu specialist Marcio Cruz at UFC 57. But this wasn't the same Mir that was on top of the world a couple years earlier, and Cruz proved it by bloodying and stopping the former champion in the first round. It wouldn't be until 2007 that the "real" Mir once again made his presence known.
UFC 68 – Randy Couture-Tim Sylvia I (Watch Video)
Sure, it was Randy Couture, but after the former heavyweight and light heavyweight champion's year long layoff (and knockout losses in two of his previous three fights), finding someone who was picking "The Natural" to beat the 6 foot 8 Sylvia was near impossible. But he pulled off yet another miracle in winning a shutout five round decision, delighting a packed house at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, in the process.
UFC 69 – Matt Serra-Georges St-Pierre I (Watch Video)
2007 was the year of the upset, but when it came to a fighter who was given virtually no chance to take down a champion expected to reign atop his division for as long as he chose to, Matt Serra's stoppage of Georges St-Pierre was not only the biggest upset of that year, but of All-Time. And the Renzo Gracie Jiu-Jitsu black belt did it with his fists, not his ground game, as he clipped GSP early and kept punching until referee John McCarthy halted the bout and raised the hand of the new welterweight champion.
UFC 70 – Gabriel Gonzaga-Mirko Cro Cop I (Watch Video)
Sure, Gabriel Gonzaga was an underdog against the feared Croatian striker, but there were more than a few people who figured the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt had the right stuff to beat Cro Cop – on the ground. Beating Cro Cop with a single kick to the head? Those are the kinds of odds that wouldn't even show up in Vegas. But Gonzaga pulled it off, earning himself a shot at the heavyweight title and a permanent spot in UFC highlight reels.
UFC 76 – Forrest Griffin-Mauricio Rua I (Watch Video)
No one thought Forrest Griffin was going to lie down and take a beating from high-profile PRIDE import Mauricio Rua when they met in Anaheim in 2007. Griffin was going to show up, be competitive, swing for the fences, and eventually get put away by 'Shogun' – at least that's what the Hollywood script called for. Griffin didn't get the memo though, and he not only beat Rua, he dominated him, putting the icing on the cake with a submission in the final minute to cap the upset victory.
UFC 95 – Paulo Thiago-Josh Koscheck
At the time of this 2009 bout, it was assumed that the unbeaten but unknown Paulo Thiago would be taken care of fairly easily by highly-regarded contender Josh Koscheck. Now the Brazilian had his supporters, but it would be safe to guess that not even Thiago's biggest fans would have expected their man to score with a right uppercut followed by a clean-up left hand to win by first round knockout. This one stunned everyone, especially Koscheck.
UFC 112 - Frankie Edgar-BJ Penn I (Watch Video)
Few outside of his native New Jersey gave Frankie Edgar a shot at defeating BJ Penn for the UFC lightweight title in their April 2010 bout. But with crisp striking and effective movement, as well as a couple points-scoring takedowns, Edgar stunned fans at Abu Dhabi with a unanimous decision win. And if that wasn't enough, Edgar repeated the feat in more dominant fashion four months later at UFC 118, proving that the first win was no fluke.

EDMONTON - A group of philanthropists and business leaders reassured council Monday that a proposed new downtown academic and cultural centre will not be a burden on the city.
The plan calls for four new theatres surrounding a large glass-covered plaza just north of City Hall and the new Royal Alberta Museum. The University of Alberta's music, art and design departments would be a major tenant, and ongoing operations would be paid for with revenue from a new office tower and retail space incorporated into the public plaza.
Any debt needed to build the project would be taken on by the project proponents, said Jim Brown, a local developer and member of the foundation developing the project.
"The intent is for it to be a self-sustaining model," he said.
He didn't give a price for the project. The group is due back at City Hall April 29 with a business plan and governance model.
Brown has previously said $50 million will come from private donations, and of that, they've already raised $32 million.
"It's a P4 (a philanthropic public-private partnership). The profits from this project will be put back into supporting the project," said Dianne Kipnes, the foundation chair. "It's a new concept. I don't think it's ever been done before and I think it's amazing. I'm not surprised that it's come out of Edmonton."
Kipnes was co-chair of the Mayor's Arts Visioning Committee, where the need for a series of smaller theatres was first identified. The theatres proposed in this development range in size from 200 to 1,600 seats.
These spaces won't complete with the Winspear, Citadel or Jubilee, said Kipnes. "I see them as adding to the Winspear. The people that we're looking at don't have available space. The Cite Ballet, they don't have a permanent place to perform and a lot of the community groups, they're working in substandard locations, places like church basements.
"We're looking to be able to house those artists who don't have a home and to give them a space where they can be as creative as they can be."
University of Alberta president Indira Samarasekera also spoke before council, promising that "if the city will support it, we certainly will be a strong partner."
The province has been pushing them to find other funding models, alternatives for renewing their existing cramped and aging facilities on the north campus. The university would count on provincial support to pay rent in the building for the long term.
Being downtown would also be great for students, Samarasekera said. "When we do performances on campus, critical musical performances, we don't get to showcase that to members of the city. I see having practice and performance space downtown means we'll draw other people besides the university community to come."
Several councillors questioned the lack of hard numbers in the presentation, but were assured those would come in April. They made no commitments today.
Mayor Stephen Mandel praised the work done so far, especially the financial model.
"You've got to give a lot of credit to (board member Irv) Kipnes and his business acumen in finding ways to do things that make sense. He's a business person first and a philanthropist second. His business person took the lead in finding a way to make this work," said Mandel.
"This is something that (Irv and Dianne Kipnes) have spent hundreds and hundreds of hours on and a fair amount of their own personal money."

As I spent my Saturday shopping in the unacquainted sun, the season's newfound heat drove me into an air conditioned shop on the corner of Broome and Mercer. With eclectic décor and racks of unique pieces arranged by hue, Runway SOHO had a one-of-a-kind feel, despite its dangerous proximity to Broadway's mass-market stores.
The engaging sales associate immediately approached, asking if we needed anything to drink – and he clearly implied "anything", considering there were bottles of champagne with the appropriate stemware on cue for whoever requested. He took us through the boutique, explaining the concept of Runway SOHO and highlighting some of their exceptional pieces.
The store's objective is to offer clients distinctive apparel that is locally designed and produced. In fact, the clothing's origin is so local, that almost everything is created inside the shop. Runway SOHO employs a team of qualified stylists, personal shoppers, and in-house tailors who are prepared to improve your wardrobe while maintaining your personal style.
So, I decided to give this a whirl:
I was looking for a long, casual dress that was not dry-clean only. I wanted a flowing summer look that was safe against Water Street winds and impromptu boat excursions. Lastly, it had to look appropriate with stilettos…
Lynn Cohen, the designer and owner of Runway SOHO, will be one of your accommodating fashion guides at 450 Broome Street. Having designed apparel for 35 years, you can be assured you are in competent hands. So sit back, grab a glass of bubbly, and prepare to be impressed in Soho.

The Government of Japan do offer the Farmers, who were trying to keep their livestock alive, a choice.
Euthanasia OR
KILLED Mother and baby. : Method : Injected with large amounts of muscle relaxants. Prolonged agony before death.
Who says that the Government of Japan is not a Democracy. One that cares for their citizens. One with compassion for those individuals that have suffered loss from the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Farmers that wanted to keep their livestock alive were given a choice by the Government of Japan, in regard to the disposition of their livestock. Euthanasia or Starvation. Who can't be impressed with how the democratic government of Japan works.
The officials that are part of the active or passive killing of animals can count on those "karma" points adding up.

This all began over fifteen years ago as a weekly email newsletter called "Musty TV" in which I told subscribers about good movies airing that week on cable. Perhaps you were a subscriber. Then I started this blog. Then I started writing about TV for some other Web sites, too. Then my computer broke and I lost all my old "Musty TV" write-ups, and cried and cried--but perhaps I'll be able to recover them some day. And during it all, I watched a hell of a lot of TV.

This hummus recipe is a great one. I like to add cumin.
1 cup pecans or walnuts
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup almonds
1 medium tomato
1 cup onion (chopped)
3 tablespoons flaxseed
1-to-2 teaspoons sea salt
1. Add all ingredients to food processor. Process well, until quite well blended but still chunky. 40 seconds or so.
2. Spread onto two dehydrator sheets. Use parchment paper or Teflex sheets. (For the love of God, never use waxed paper!)
3. Dehydrate for 1 hour at 115. After one hour score the crackers with a knife so that they'll be easier to separate later. Dehydrate for another 6 hours at 105. After 6 hours flip crackers and remove parchment paper or Teflex sheets. Dehydrate for one more hour at 105 until dry and cracker-like!
Do not use a high-speed blender for this recipe. A food processor will work much better. Dehydrating times can vary wildly depending on the season, the humidity and your dehydrator. The best thing to do is hang out at home and check on them every couple of hours until you get the hang of making crackers. Try not to nibble too much on these raw flax crackers before they're done!
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
Raw flax cracker recipes... Yeah, I know, there are a zillion of recipes for raw flax dehydrator crackers online. But how many of them are actually really good standby recipes that you want to make again and again? For me, this is my favorite raw flax cracker recipe -- hands down.
What makes this recipe special? As always, I like how there aren't very many ingredients in it. But somehow, I think because of the walnuts, these crackers have a very nice, hearty, satisfying weight to them.
I like to eat one or two of these crackers when I'm feeling as though I need a raw flax cracker recipe that'll really fill me up... and that tastes great, too.
Raw flax cracker recipe inspired by the Boutenkos!

Soak 2 cups chick peas o'night
Allow to sprout until shoots are 1 cm long {rinsing 1 -2/day}
Blend or use juicer
Add 1/2 cup lemon juice
1 cup Tahini [sesame paste]
pepper & salt
Optional: cumin pwd [optional]
aesophotida [garlic substitute from Health or Asian stores]
My dehydrator is arriving tomorrow so I'll be trying these.....The only thing is that I don't have a food processor, but I do have a food mixer and liquidiser, so I'll have to see how they turn out.
I plan on making these soon. The only thing I plan on changing is adding some chia seeds to this as well. Other than that, sounds great!
Thanks for the recipe! I added a few kale leaves to bring some color into the mix. I also used chia seeds and pumpkin seeds in place of walnuts. I'm very excited to try these, as well as a few other recipes I found on your site. Thanks again!!!
I am about to embark on these with a touch of chilli and another lot with wasabi :-) Keep you posted !
I just received my new dehydrator and this was the first recipe I tried. They really are delicious and will be a great snack for pre or post-workouts, hiking, and mid-workday doldrums. I look forward to experimenting with other recipes on your site. Thanks!
is there anything that can be substituted for the sunflower seeds? maybe more nuts? dont have any on hand right now... would a small amount of olive oil work?
I have made your moist bread recipe, your zucchini bread recipe and the flax crackers and all are absolutely delicious! I am so grateful for your site. You are such a source of inspiration to me, especially because myself and my family are very new to eating raw foods and need information and ideas all the time. Thanks again:)
Quick question....
Do you ever make a couple of different batches for the dehydrator at the same time? I wonder if the flavours would overlap, making it inadvisable. I am dehydrating some crackers and would like to make some fruit leathers also. Am I better off doing them separately, or can I dehydrate on separate trays at the same time? I surely do not want my leathers tasting like onions!
Totally delicious! I used slighly reconstituted, chopped sun-dried tomatoes instead of regular tomatoes and it is yummy:)
These really ARE outstanding. Have been making flax crackers for over ten years, and truly, none even come close to being this delicious. Thanks for the recipe!!!

Senator Paul Questions Tim Geithner
During a subcommittee hearing today, Senator Paul was able to question Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on the "wisdom" of central bankers determining interest rates instead of market forces. He asked Geithner what he thought caused the housing bubble, and not-so-subtly-hinted that the NYFed and the FOMC played a role. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqLfwyCTIyc As an aside, here's an article [...]

Comments On Dec 10, 2012:I used this to replace the seals on my stock Showa shocks. Not only was the fit perfect, the manufacturing left no burrs or defects that could scratch the shock tube. I store this in the package, but during the install, with tools being tossed around, the driver was undamaged. If you are going to change seals yourself, I would highly recommend using a seal driver. The expense is well worth having the seals seat perfectly and undamaged, and it also will save a great deal of time and frustration due to ease of use.

Most people probably think of salt as simply that white granular food seasoning found in a salt shaker on virtually every dining table. It is that, surely, but it is far more. It is an essential element in the diet of not only humans but of animals, and even of many plants. It is one of the most effective and most widely used of all food preservatives. Read more...

The world of salt is fascinating! Throughout human history, salt has been the subject of wars, used as currency and been as expensive as gold, because it is essential for life. In recent years, salt has become the "bad boy" of ingredients because, like most things, you can have too much of a good thing. And as such, salt has attracted a lot of press, both good and bad.

Australia's Answer to Fleur de Sel
The ancient tradition of making sea salt into flakes is a closely guarded secret and has taken over a decade for Olsson Pacific to perfect. Olsson's Sea Salt Flakes are made in the Spencer Gulf in South Australia. Olsson's are the first company in Australia to produce "flat" Sea Salt Flakes (similar to the French "fleur de sel" sea salt flakes), an extremely delicate sea salt flake, easily crumbled in the fingers. Many other salt flakes have a "pyramid" shape, making their structure more durable and as a consequence, less delicate.

Just a few years ago, not many people would believe that an independent film director would be put in charge of resurrecting one of the most popular superheroes of all time on the big screen.
Yet Marc Webb, best known for "(500) Days of Summer," rebooted "The Amazing Spider-Man" on the big screen: a gamble which paid off to the tune of $262 million in the U.S. this past summer.
With Jamie Foxx already rumored to play the villain Electro in the 2014 sequel, Webb spoke to CNN about the experience making the hit movie (out on Blu-ray this Friday), and looked ahead to the next installment.
(If you haven't seen the movie, be forewarned there are spoilers ahead.)
CNN: Now that you've had a little time to the reflect, what surprised you most about the reaction?
Webb: We did a big press tour around the world and it was extraordinary to see the level of enthusiasm. In Europe, Asia and everywhere else, it's staggering the pervasiveness of Spider-Man.
People reacted well to the Peter (Parker) and Gwen (Stacy) storyline. That was great. More than action, spectacle, superheroes or anything else, what goes on between two people in a room, whether it's anger or love or sometimes both is important. Creating a relatable, emotional space with the characters was crucial. That breakup scene -- Andrew and Emma were really great in that. I have to take my hat off to those actors for that.
What was fun was how curious people were about Peter's parents. The long shadow of that mystery was cast over the film. It was really encouraging that that gamble paid off. Even though we didn't quite solve it.
CNN: What was your favorite reaction to the film?
Webb: In Japan people were really moved by the crane moment. They felt inspired by people coming together. It was nice that it came across. It came across stronger in Japan than Korea. Different parts of the world reacted differently to different things.

While "we must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit," he said, "we reject the belief that America must choose between caring for the generation that built this country and investing in the generation that will build its future."
In particular, he defended the need for popular entitlement programs that provide government benefits to senior citizens, the poor and the disabled, saying they were part of the American fabric.
"The commitments we make to each other -- through Medicare, and Medicaid, and Social Security -- these things do not sap our initiative; they strengthen us," Obama said. "They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great."
On Monday, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, one of Obama's harshest critics, called the president's second term "a fresh start when it comes to dealing with the great challenges of our day; particularly, the transcendent challenge of unsustainable federal spending and debt."
Other issues also appear difficult, if not intractable.
Obama made a reference to gun control, saying that the nation needed to ensure that "all our children, from the streets of Detroit to the hills of Appalachia to the quiet lanes of Newtown, know that they are cared for, and cherished, and always safe from harm."
However, congressional Republicans and some Democrats, as well as the powerful gun lobby, have rejected proposals Obama recently announced in response to the Connecticut school shootings that killed 20 Newtown first-graders last month.
In citing climate change as a priority, Obama raised the profile of the issue on the national agenda after a presidential campaign in which it was almost never mentioned.
"We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations," he said, warning of a "long and sometimes difficult" path to sustainable energy sources in a nation dominated by its fossil fuel industries such as oil and coal.
"America cannot resist this transition; we must lead it," Obama said. "We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries -- we must claim its promise."

Good time
The story dates to the early 1980s, when Godbold and her husband saw Griffin at an orphanage near their Sacramento home.
The smiling child seemed to fit perfectly with their family: Godbold is white. Her late previous husband was black, and the couple had two children who were, like Griffin, biracial.
The couple took Griffin in as a foster child. He quickly bonded with their sons, Gideon and Spencer.
"We were best friends," Griffin said. "We'd run around, we did mischievous things and fun things. It was a good time."
He lived with the family as a foster child for four years, until he was 13. Then, just two months shy of being adopted by them, it all fell apart.
Griffin said wanted to be treated like a "real" son: He wanted to be disciplined like the couple's other sons. He wanted to be spanked, he said.
So he innocently told a social worker that was what was going to happen.
The social worker then told her superiors, and soon Griffin was about to be removed from the household, he said.
Family ripped apart

Trade rights to kostas Papanikolau and 2 2nds for the 13th pick. If mavs are planning on drafting an international player to stash, we might as well give kostas to mavs, because theyre trying to clear space to get dh12 or cp3 to play for them. The...

As much as I would love this to happen Batum and multiple picks in this draft will not come close to getting Sanders

Well said Cmeese
I would not give up LA for #1 and Thompson, especially an injured Noel as the likely choice, however, If I can get Waiters or some extra picks not in this draft like one next year and one later I would do tha...

Get rid of Batum and find some cheaper pieces it only takes one sucker and we can be free of his Albatross contract

I have Batum below Harris Butler Kirilenko and Kwahi Leonard. Probably won''t take long before he below Otto Porter and Shabazz Muhammad as well.

Prologue to Farm Country Tales
Imagine an era
that's diff'rent from now,
When times were not better,
but pleasing, somehow.
It's the year 1950,
when farming was done
By Mother and Father
and Daughter and Son.
by Gordon W. Fredrickson
