C-3030 Test ImagesReview First Posted: 5/18/2000
|We've begun including links in our reviews to a Thumber-generated index page for our test shots. The Thumber data includes a host of information on the images, including shutter speed, ISO setting, compression setting, etc. Rather than clutter the page below with *all* that detail, we're posting the Thumber index so only those interested in the information need wade through it! ;)
|*Special Category*
|Movie Audio: Well, we won't be winning any Oscars, but we did get a shot of two people talking (myself and Marti, my wife and long-suffering IR model). This was shot in a quiet environment, so no idea how the camera would do with more backgroud noise, but it should nonetheless give you some idea of what to expect. This was shot in the "HQ" recording mode, and is about a 2MB download.
|Outdoor portrait:
(1768k) This is a tough shot for many digicams,
due to the extreme tonal range (which is why we set it up this way).
The trick is to hold highlight and shadow detail without producing
a "flat" picture with muddy colors. We shot with both the
automatic (1751k) and
daylight (1768k) white
balance settings for this image, choosing daylight because it produced
the most accurate color balance. (The automatic setting appeared just
a little bit cool.) Nice color balance overall, although the blue
flowers and pants look a little dark, and also show some signs of
the "purple blues" problem. (Many digicams have a tendency
to reproduce this tone with a purplish hue. The C-3030 does this slightly,
and also darkens the tone somewhat.). We shot our main image at +0.7
EV which gave us the best overall exposure, even though the highlight
areas are rather "hot". - The C-3030 produces fairly high-contrast
images, with strong highlights and deep shadows. Shadow detail is
very good though, with very little noise: With high-contrast subjects
like this, you'll generally want to underexpose slightly to preserve
highlight detail, and boost the midtone values after the fact in an
imaging program. Resolution and detail are excellent, with what looks
to our eyes like a just-right amount of in-camera sharpening. The
table below shows the results of a range of exposure settings from
zero to +1.3 EV in the daylight white balance setting.
Exposure Compensation Settings:
|Closer portrait:
(1712k) The C-3030 does an excellent job with
this "portrait" shot, thanks in part to the camera's 3x
zoom lens. (Shorter focal length lenses tend to distort facial features
in close-up shots like this and the availability of longer focal lengths
is a key feature if you're going to be shooting close-up people shots).
As usual in this test, our main shot (1712k)
didn't require any exposure adjustment. Resolution and detail
again look nice and crisp, with very little noise in the shadows.
The table below shows the results of a range of exposure settings
from zero to +1.3 EV in the daylight white balance setting.
Exposure Compensation Settings:
portrait, flash: (1570k) The
C-3030 did a really excellent job in this category as well. For our
first series, we pointed the camera's built-in flash directly at the
subject and varied the flash intensity setting (which is adjustable
from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 increments). Keeping the flash at the
normal intensity setting produced this
(1606k) slightly dark image which has a moderate
magenta cast and bluish highlight areas. Boosting the flash intensity
to +0.3 EV (1616k) produced
a slightly brighter image, though still with a bit of an overall magenta
color shift. Next, we increased the flash intensity to +0.7
EV (1615k), which gave us a much nicer exposure
with a better color balance. The subject is well-illuminated with
no harsh shadows. Finally, we set the flash intensity to +1.0
EV (1642k), which is about the brightest
we'd recommend for this setup. Here, the image is much brighter, but
we begin to see harsh shadows against the background. Still, the highlight
areas aren't too hot and the color balance looks good overall. (Although
the camera still shows some of the blue/purple problem that seems
so common with digicams.) We also tried setting the camera's ISO to
400 (1514k) and boosting
the flash sensitivity to +0.7 EV, which gave us a very nice exposure
with only a little noise (due to the higher ISO setting). We then
utilized the camera's Slow Shutter (1570k)
setting (also at the +0.7 EV sensitivity level), which gave
us the best exposure overall, and the image we selected as the main
one for this category. Both the ISO 400 and Slow Shutter images gave
us nicer exposures by letting in more ambient light, but we preferred
the Slow Shutter version because of its lower noise level. (Although
the noise level at ISO 400 is not bad at all, much better than many
digicams we've seen).
The C-3030 supports the dedicated Olympus FL-40 flash unit, which of course would produce far superior images than those obtained with the onboard flash. We didn't have an FL-40 available while testing the 3030 though, so you'll just have to use your imagination... (We've worked enough with internal/external flash setups that we're pretty confident in recommending the FL-40 for use with the 3030, even though we only tested that flash on the Olympus C-2500: If you're planning extensive indoor photography, the importance of an off-camera flash unit can't be overemphasized!)
portrait, no flash: (1586k) This
shot is a very tough test of a camera's white balance capability,
given the strong, yellowish color cast of the household incandescent
bulbs used for the lighting and the C-3030 did a very nice job. We
chose the incandescent (1586k)
white balance setting for our main shot, which was achieved
with a +1.0 EV adjustment in the exposure. The automatic
(1599k) white balance setting resulted in a
much warmer image (also shot at +1.0 EV). The C-3030 does a great
job picking up detail in the shadow areas and the noise level is very
low. We also shot at the camera's 100 (1693k),
200 (1582k) and 400
(1524k) ISO settings and we're pleased to note
that although the noise level does increase somewhat with the higher
settings, it still remains very low and quite acceptable (IMHO) even
at ISO 400. The table below shows a range of exposure settings from
zero to +1.7 EV in the incandescent white balance setting with an
automatic ISO setting.
Exposure Compensation Settings:
|House shot:
(1660k) NOTE that this is the "new"
house shot, a much higher-resolution poster than we first used in
our tests. To compare the C-3030 with previously tested cameras, here's
a shot of the original house poster at the automatic
(1598k) and daylight
(1592k) white balance settings.
For this test, we shot with the automatic
(77k) and daylight
(77k) white balance settings. The daylight
produced warm results, leading us to select the automatic setting
because of its more accurate color balance, although the final image
still had a slightly warm cast, and was slightly dark overall. Excellent
resolution and detail throughout though, especially in the tree
limbs above the roof and in the brick sections. We caught just a
slight amount of softness at the corners of the image, but not too
bad. Color saturation also looks great. The in-camera sharpening
is almost perfect, just barely given away by the very tiny halo
around the dark and light edges of the house. From a resolution
standpoint, the C-3030 is just the slightest notch down from the
very best digicams we've tested to date, and that small difference
can be largely made up for by a low-radius unsharp masking operation
in Photoshop(tm). (We thought 0.3 pixels at 100% crisped things
up very nicely.) We also detected only a very small amount of noise
in the shingles (possibly largely due to the texture of the shingles
themselves in the poster.) Overall, the C-3030 does a very nice
job. The table below shows our standard resolution and quality series.
We also shot with the C-3030's variable sharpness settings, which seem to alter the contrast a little to adjust the sharpness. The high sharpness setting is very bright and contrasty, in addition to being a touch crisper than the normal setting. Likewise, the low sharpness setting has less contrast and a touch less sharpening. The results are below.
Sharpness Variations:
|Far-Field shot:
(1641k) This image is shot at infinity to test
far-field lens performance. NOTE that this image cannot be directly
compared to the other "house" shot, which is a poster, shot
in the studio. The rendering of detail in the poster will be very
different than in this shot, and color values (and even the presence
or absence of leaves on the trees!) will vary in this subject as the
seasons progress. In general though, you can evaluate detail in the
bricks, shingles and window detail, and in the tree branches against
the sky. Compression artifacts are most likely to show in the trim
along the edge of the roof, in the bricks, or in the relatively "flat"
areas in the windows.
We shot this series with the automatic
(1641k) white balance setting, as it produced
the most accurate white values and overall color balance. This test
is the strongest test of detail of any we do, and the bright white
of the central bay window often tricks digicams into losing detail
in that area. The C-3030 did a wonderful job here and depicted all
the details of the bay window precisely. Resolution and detail look
great, as does color balance and saturation. We also shot at the
100 (1497k), 200
(1575k) and 400
(1599k) ISO settings, which did a nice job
of exposing the image without too much noise (although we did notice
that the 400 setting gave us a slightly darker exposure). The table
below shows our standard resolution and quality series at the automatic
ISO setting.
Again, we shot a series with the C-3030's variable sharpness settings, which gave us similar results as with the House poster.
Sharpness Variations:
|Lens Zoom Range: We've received a number of requests
from readers to take shots showing the lens focal length range of
those cameras with zoom lenses. Thus, we're happy to present you here
with the following series of shots, showing the field of view at full
wide angle, 3x telephoto and 2.5x digital telephoto. While the digital
telephoto trades off resolution directly for size, we felt that the
C-3030's digital tele didn't lose sharpness quite as quickly as some
do (Of course, the best use of digital tele is when the camera is
set to a smaller file size, for images used on the web, or for other
lower-resolution applications.)
poster: (1513k) We shot this
test with the automatic (73k),
cloudy (73k) and
daylight (73k) white
balance settings. The cloudy setting produced very warm results (as
you might expect), while the daylight was just slightly warmer than
the automatic setting. Thus, we chose the automatic white balance
for our main series, because it produced the most accurate skin tones
and overall color balance. Resolution and detail look great--we always
look at the subtle detail of the bird's wings and the tiny silver
threads on the Oriental model's robe, which look pretty sharp as do
the flowers in the blonde model's hair. The majority of the small
level of noise in the image seems to be coming from the poster itself,
so we're very pleased with the C-3030's performance in this category.
Below is our normal resolution and quality series in the automatic
white balance setting.
Resolution/Quality series:
As in some of the other tests, we shot with the camera's variable sharpness series with the results below. Again, the camera seems to be altering the contrast while adjusting the sharpness level.
Sharpness Variations:
|Macro shot:
(666k) The C-3030 does pretty good job in the
macro category, capturing a minimum area of 3.35 x 2.52 inches (85.21
x 63.91 mm). This is about an average minimum coverage area among
digicams we've tested, but the body threads of the C-3030 in conjunction
with Olympus' CLA-1 filter adapter permit the addition of external
macro lenses for much tighter focusing. Resolution, detail and color
all look good, although there's just a slight amount of softness on
the brooch (probably due to the limited depth of field when shooting
this close). On the 2.5x digital telephoto
(555k) setting, the C-3030 captures a minimum
area of 0.94 x 0.70 inches (23.77 x 17.03 mm) but the image is rather
soft as a result of the digital zoom. Still, the digital telephoto
manages to do a good job of capturing a very small area with fair
resolution. The C-3030's flash (693k)
does a reasonably good job of throttling down for macro images, although
the shiny coin proves to be a bit tricky (as is the case with many
digicams). Overall, though, we're pretty pleased with the results.
test target: (2070k) The C-3030 performs
nicely on this test as well. We shot with the daylight
(58k), cloudy (59k)
and automatic (58k)
white balance settings, choosing automatic as the most accurate overall.
Cloudy produced very warm results, as did the daylight setting, which
was just a little bit warmer than the automatic. Even the automatic
setting had a warmer cast than we'd like though. We did find though,
that the image cleaned up wonderfully in Photoshop with a simple levels
adjustment, as seen here. The large color
blocks on the left side of the box look very good, although the yellow
is slightly weak. The C-3030 wasn't fooled by the sometimes tricky
red and magenta color blocks on the middle, horizontal color chart
(many digicams have trouble here and try to blend the colors into
one) or the subtle tonal variations in the "B" range of
the Q60 chart, which are completely visible. The shadow area of the
briquettes shows a lot of detail and there's barely any noise. Other
than the overall slightly warm cast, color balance overall is very
nice. Following is our standard resolution and quality series.
Resolution/Quality series:
We again shot a sharpness series with this test and found similar results as above. We paid close attention to the mini resolution target though, which did seem quite a bit sharper in the high sharpness setting than at the normal sharpness level.
Sharpness Variations:
|Low-Light Tests
The C3030 Zoom performed very well in our low light tests, producing very usable images down to light levels of 1/8 of a foot-candle. (We're chiding ourselves for not having gone down to 1/16 of a foot-candle, since it's our guess that we would have obtained usable if not somewhat dim pictures at that level as well.) At these low light levels, with exposure times of 2 to 10 seconds, there is a moderate amount of noise present in the images. (We direct readers to Mike Chaney's excellent Qimage Pro program, for a tool with an amazing ability to remove image noise without significantly affecting detail.) To put the C3030's low light performance in perspective, an average city night scene under modern street lighting corresponds to a light level of about 1 foot-candle.
We've recently changed our test procedure to insure that the cameras we test are at a uniform 70 degrees F (~21 C) when we shoot the low light tests, and we proceed from the lowest light levels to the brightest. This insures that the camera electronics and sensor are at their lowest temperature when we test under the most sensitive conditions (longest exposures, highest ISO settings). CCD noise levels are very sensitive to temperature, doubling every 6-8 degrees C. Thus, if you attempt a low-light shot after running the camera continuously for an hour or two, you'd probably get drastically worse results than those shown here. Likewise, if you were taking pictures on a winter night and the camera had equilibrated to the low air temperature, your results could be substantially better.
|Flash Range Test
(This test was added in August 1999, so cameras tested before that time won't have comparison pictures available. As we go forward though, all the new models will have similar tests available). Olympus rates the C-3030's flash out to a maximum of 18.4 feet (5.6m) under its normal intensity setting, which is consistent with our findings. We shot this test using the normal flash intensity setting combined with the auto, 100, 200 and 400 ISO levels. Under the automatic ISO setting, we found the flash still very bright at the 14 foot mark, with no noticeable reduction in brightness. At ISO 100, the flash was still effective out to 14 feet, although not quite as bright. ISO 200 produced similar results to automatic and ISO 400 was noticeably brighter with a slightly higher noise level. Below are samples showing range of distances for each ISO setting from eight to 14 feet.
Flash Range/Distance, Automatic:
Flash Range/Distance, ISO 100:
Flash Range/Distance, ISO 200:
Flash Range/Distance, ISO 300:
resolution target: The Olympus C-3030 performed toward the
top of the current range of 3.3 megapixel digicams in the resolution
department, with a resolution that we "called" as between
850 and 900 lines per picture height in both the horizontal and vertical
directions. While just a hair off from the sharpest performance we've
seen to date, the 3030 deserves credit for not applying heavy-handed
in-camera sharpening in an attempt to boost the apparent resolution.
Overall, we by far prefer a more understated approach to in-camera
sharpening, as practiced in the C-3030: If we want heavier sharpening,
it's always easy to add after the fact in an imaging program. If there's
too much to begin with though, you're stuck, and there's nothing to
do... Overall, we rate the C-3030 quite well in the sharpness/resolution
area. In the resolution series below, we exercised all of the
camera's resolution settings (a total of five), leaving us grasping
for adjectives to describe the various size options. We finally settled
on calling the images Giant, Large, Medium, Small, and Tiny, the largest
being the full-size 2048z1536 dimension, and "Tiny" corresponding
to the 640x480 "VGA" resolution. (It wasn't very many years
ago that 640x480 was the biggest a digicam image got - We're sure
progressed in the intervening time!) See the tables below for a full
assortment of images shot in all size/quality settings, at both wide
angle and telephoto focal lengths.
Resolution/Quality series, Wide Angle:
Resolution/Quality series, Telephoto:
Resolution/Quality series, Digital Telephoto:
Sharpness Variations:
|Viewfinder accuracy/flash uniformity
target: We found the C-3030's optical viewfinder to be a little
tight, showing approximately 82 percent accuracy at wide
angle (649k) and about 81 percent at telephoto
(641k). (Note that we've changed our nomenclature
on this to better reflect what you see looking into the viewfinder:
We previously would have referred to the C-3030's viewfinder as "loose"...)
These numbers are from the 2048 x 1536 resolution size but the smaller,
640 x 480 resolution size numbers are similar at 83 percent accuracy
for both wide angle (56k)
and telephoto (51k).
We also noticed that the framing here slants just a little to the
left vertically, possibly the CCD on our test model was shifted a
little. The LCD monitor proved to be much more accurate, showing about
97 percent frame coverage at wide angle
(641k) and slightly over 100 percent accuracy
at the telephoto (632k)
setting. (The covered area is just barely inside the darker lines
we use to frame the viewfinder accuracy target). As with the optical
viewfinder, the smaller, 640 x 480 image sizes weren't too far off
from the larger ones (about 96 percent accuracy at wide
angle (55k) and over 100 percent accuracy
at telephoto) (51k).
We generally like to see the LCD monitor as close to 100 percent accuracy
as possible, so the C-3030 does a pretty good job in that respect.
We also shot at the 2x digital telephoto
(516k) setting (our studio wasn't long enough
to accommodate the full 2.5x), which probably would have produced
close to 100 percent accuracy if framed properly. One problem with
the digital telephoto is that framing is difficult because of the
softer, slightly distorted image on the LCD. Additionally, the resulting
image is somewhat soft, which is a usual side effect of the digital
Geometric distortion on the C-3030 was moderate at the wide angle
end, as we measured a 0.76 percent barrel distortion. The telephoto
showed a smaller, 0.29 percent pincushion distortion. Both numbers
are about typical among digicams we've tested, but we do prefer
to see lower distortion at the wide angle end. (Just to be clear,
roughly 0.8 percent is pretty typical, we'd just like to see *all*
digicams have lower barrel distortion.) Chromatic aberration was
fairly pronounced at wide angle settings, with several pixels of
color showing at the edges of elements on our resolution test target.
At the telephoto end of the lens' range though, chromatic aberration
was essentially invisible.. (This distortion is visible as a very
slight colored fringe around objects at the edges of the field of
view on the resolution target). The chromatic aberration was more
severe at the wide angle end than the average for cameras we've
tested, while it was much better than average at the telephoto end.

BioWare's Emmanuel Lusinchi, lead designer on Star Wars: The Old Republic, tells gamesTM that the quality of some competing MMOGs is more of a factor than how they are free-to-play as something that has caused them to rethink their approach to their MMORPG. Along the way, he does admit that they are "looking at" F2P: "The MMO market is very dynamic and we need to be dynamic as well," he says. "Unless people are happy with what they have, they are constantly demanding updates, new modes and situations. So we are looking at free-to-play but I can't tell you in much detail. We have to be flexible and adapt to what is going on."

The planet Venus, which shines as the brilliant "morning star," will pass just a whisker away from the star Regulus, the "heart" of Leo, the lion, this week. The two will be closest on the morning of October 3.
You are here
Venus and Regulus
Like a train barreling down the track, Venus is sliding eastward along the ecliptic — the Sun's path across the sky. And that trip will carry the brilliant planet past a bright "station" the next few mornings: Regulus, the leading light of Leo, the lion.
The ecliptic also is a close approximation of the paths of the planets. That means that if the Sun were sitting in the middle of a big table, the planets would roll around it on the same tabletop.
Since the ecliptic is viewed from Earth, Earth would fit precisely on the tabletop. But the orbits of the other planets are all tilted a tiny amount compared to Earth's orbit. Venus is tilted by a little more than three degrees, which means the planet can appear up to that distance away from the ecliptic.
Right now, though, it's almost directly atop the ecliptic, which is why it's passing so close to Regulus. The star always maintains the same position relative to the ecliptic. So as the planets pass by it they snuggle close, but just how close depends on where they are in their orbits. At their closest, they can even pass directly in front of Regulus; we'll have more about that tomorrow.
Look for Regulus just to the lower left of Venus, the brilliant "morning star," in the hours before dawn tomorrow. They'll be even closer the next day, with Venus a fraction of a degree below Regulus. After that, Venus will keep on rollin' down the ecliptic — leaving Regulus behind.

If you're ready to take advantage of the equity in your home, start the application process by reviewing what to expect and what you'll need for the home equity application process. We'll help you through each step when you apply.
For details about home equity rates, eligibility requirements and other information, view important disclosures.
To apply for a home equity line or loan, you'll first complete an application, including information about yourself, your finances and your home. Depending on your situation, you could be conditionally approved immediately.
As a reminder, some Citi home equity products have eligibility requirements. Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOC) with an interest-only draw period require you to have $200,000 or more in personal assets with Citi, or $1,000,000 or more in combined personal assets with Citi and other financial institutions. The Fixed Rate Home Equity Loan requires that you have an existing balance on your mortgage. If you don't meet these requirements, the HELOC with a principal and interest draw period may be right for you.
Ready to apply for a home equity line or loan now?
After you apply, your lender will need documentation to verify your information. These documents typically include:
Depending on your situation, you may be required to submit more or less information.Download our full document checklist
Before approving your home equity line or loan, Citi will order an appraisal to determine the estimated market value of your property. We will take the appraised value into consideration when determining the amount and terms of your financing. Citi will also evaluate any other outstanding mortgages on the property and order a title report to verify ownership.
Once you've received final approval, Citi will verify your employment and homeowners insurance coverage. If you're opening a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), your processor will work with you to determine your initial draw amount and arrange any debt payoffs, if needed.
At closing, you'll need to present a photo ID and review and sign some closing documents. You'll also decide if you'd like to receive your funds by wire transfer, direct deposit or check. Funds are held for 3 days, during which you can cancel your line or loan for any reason. This is called the Right of Rescission period. Your funds will be available to you on the fifth day after your closing. For properties in California, this may take 1 additional day.
Terms, conditions and fees for accounts, programs, products and services are subject to change.
For Home Equity Lines of Credit with an interest-only draw period: Your monthly minimum payments during the draw period can be as low as "interest-only". If you choose to pay only the amount of interest due, then at the end of the interest-only period you will still owe the original amount you borrowed and your monthly payments will increase because you must pay back the principal as well as interest. Your payment could increase even more if your variable rate increases. Home Equity Lines of Credit with an interest-only draw period are also available in combination with a Citi mortgage. Please speak to a personal banker for more details.

Chicago's population had barely reached 5,000 in1840. Twenty years later, the city's census recorded more than 109,000 residents. Chicago's population increased more than 20 times over two decades. Most of the increase was due to an influx of young men; census data from 1850 showed that almost 50 percent of Chicago's male population was between the ages of 15 and 39.
The city was in need of a place for young men to socialize and improve themselves. Several societies were founded: Chicago Lyceum, the Mechanical Institute and the Young Men's Association among others. Most notable of these groups, the Young Men's Association was created as a place for leisure and amusement away from the vices of gambling halls and saloons. Despite their good intentions, these organizations were unable to provide any answers to the problems young men faced. They were refuges for their constituents, but little more.
In 1853, after learning of Young Men's Christian Associations (YMCA) in other cities such as Boston, New York and Buffalo, Reverend Luther Stone published a series of articles calling for the creation of a YMCA in Chicago. According to the constitution of the YMCA, originally founded in London in 1844, the goal of the organization was "the spiritual and mental improvement of young men by any means in accordance with the Scriptures." Stone, editor of a religious paper called the Watchman of the Prairies, brought together laymen from the Episcopal, Methodist, Congregational, Baptist and Presbyterian churches to discuss the creation of a YMCA in Chicago.
Despite their best efforts, the laymen were met with great opposition. In the summer of 1854, Chicago faced a cholera epidemic that left more than 1,400 people dead. This turned church officials' attention away from the possible creation of a YMCA to the tragedy at hand. In addition, competition from the already well-established Young Men's Association left little support for the hopeful YMCA backers.
Chicago, still in recovery from the cholera epidemic, faced a new crisis a few years later—this time, a financial one. A great recession swept the country, crippling the railroad and other previously booming industries. In response, the city experienced a religious and spiritual revival. Laymen and YMCA members in cities such as New York met to discuss ways of lessening the poverty that so many faced during the country's recession.
On March 22, 1858, Chicagoans again gathered in an attempt to form a YMCA. After a series of meetings, a constitution was written and the first YMCA of Chicago was officially formed.

More InfraGard FUD and misinformation
Barnett first goes wrong when he writes:
First, there isn't a "distinct tradeoff." There is no "quid pro quo" required of InfraGard members. All InfraGard members get the same access to bulletins as the others, regardless of whether they share information back. There are some specific sector-oriented subgroups that share information only with each other (and such private groups also exist independently of InfraGard, such as the sector Information Sharing and Analysis Centers, or ISACs). The FBI may come to a company from time to time with specific threat information relevant to them (I've seen this happen once with respect to my own company), but that happens whether a company is a member of InfraGard or not. (Where InfraGard membership might give added benefit is that the FBI knows that the InfraGard member has undergone some rudimentary screening. There are companies that are set up and run by con artists, as well as by foreign intelligence agents, believe it or not, and where there is apparent risk of such a setup, the FBI is obviously going to be less forthcoming than with somebody they already know.)
InfraGard's stated goal "is to promote ongoing dialogue and timely communications between members and the FBI." Pay attention to this next part:Infragard members gain access to information that enables them to protect their assets and in turn give information to government that facilitates its responsibilities to prevent and address terrorism and other crimes.I take from this statement that there is a distinct tradeoff, a tradeoff not available to the rest of us, whereby InfraGard members are privy to inside information from government to protect themselves and their assets; in return they give the government information it desires. This is done under the auspices of preventing terrorism and other crimes. Of course, as usual, "other crimes" is not defined, leaving us to guess just what information is being transferred.
Second, "not available to the rest of us" suggests that InfraGard membership is difficult to come by. It's not. I suspect Mr. Barnett himself could be approved, as could whoever does IT security for his company.
Third, there's no need to guess about the "other crimes." The FBI's own priority list tells you:
1. Protect the United States from terrorist attack. (Counterterrorism)
2. Protest the United States against foreign intelligence operations and espionage. (Counterintelligence)
3. Protect the United States against cyber-based attacks and high-technology crimes. (Cyber crime)
4. Combat public corruption at all levels.
5. Protect civil rights.
6. Combat transnational/national criminal enterprises.
7. Combat major white collar crime.
8. Combat significant violent crime.
9. Support federal, state, local, and international partners.
10. Upgrade technology to successfully perform the FBI's mission.
Some might question this list, in particular #5, on the basis of the FBI's past record, but my interactions with law enforcement lead me to believe that there are many who do take #5 quite seriously and would challenge and speak out against actions contrary to it. I was at an InfraGard conference in New Mexico yesterday at which an exchange occurred that went something like this:
Me: I work for a global telecommunications company.
He: You're not one of those companies that's been eavesdropping on us, are you?
Me: No.
He: Good.
"He" was a member of New Mexico's InfraGard--and a member of law enforcement. I'll have more to say about warrantless wiretapping in a moment.
The real issue with this list is that the top two are probably misplaced, and 6-8 (and #10!) have been suffering, as I've previously written about.
Barnett goes on:
Since these members of InfraGard are people in positions of power in the "private" sector, people who have access to a massive amount of private information about the rest of us, just what information are they divulging to government? Remember, they are getting valuable consideration in the form of advance warnings and protection for their lives and assets from government. This does not an honest partnership make; quite the contrary.There are several key ways in which private industry helps the FBI through InfraGard. One is securing their own infrastructure against attacks so that it doesn't create a problem that the FBI needs to devote resources to. Two is by bringing criminal issues that are identified by private companies to the attention of the FBI so that it can investigate and bring prosecutions. Three is by assisting the FBI in its investigations by explaining what evidence that requires technical skills to understand means, and giving them guidance in how to successfully track down criminals.
Barnett goes on to talk about Rep. Jane Harman's bill in Congress, HR1955/S.1959, which I've also briefly commented on at this blog, and makes some significant errors of fact. He writes this this bill "if passed, will literally criminalize thought against government." That's false--the bill doesn't criminalize anything, it just creates a commission that will write a report and make recommendations. That commission has no law enforcement powers of any kind, not even the power of subpoena. Barnett also mistakenly thinks that this bill contains a reference to InfraGard. He writes:
S.1959, if passed, will be attached to the Homeland Security Act and InfraGard is already a part of the Department of Homeland Security. This is not a coincidence. Under section 899b of S.1959 it is stated:Preventing the potential rise of self radicalized, unaffiliated terrorists domestically cannot be easily accomplished solely through traditional Federal intelligence or law enforcement efforts, and can benefit from the incorporation of State and local efforts.
This appears to be a direct reference to the InfraGard program.
The reference to "the incorporation of State and local efforts" into "traditional Federal intelligence or law enforcement efforts" in counterterrorism contains no reference to private partnerships, only to combining law enforcement efforts at federal, state, and local levels. This is a reference to what are called "fusion centers," like the Arizona Counter-Terrorism Information Center (ACTIC). The people who work in those centers are people from government agencies (at the federal, state, and local levels) with government security clearances. InfraGard in Phoenix does partner with ACTIC, which in practice means that ACTIC representatives give presentations to InfraGard (all of which I believe have also been open to the general public), ACTIC shares threat information with InfraGard much like the FBI does, and that InfraGard members are encouraged to report potential terrorist tip information to ACTIC. (ACTIC also encourages the general public to do this, which I think is far more likely to waste resources than identify any actual terrorists.)
Note that Barnett is mistaken when he writes that InfraGard is part of the Department of Homeland Security. InfraGard is not a government agency or part of a government agency--it is a non-governmental organization, or actually a collection of non-governmental organizations, which are 501(c)(3) nonprofits, with leadership provided by board members who are InfraGard members. Each chapter has a coordinator from the FBI who is not on the board. The FBI provides guidance and suggestions, but the organizations are run by the boards.
Now Barnett goes into Matt Rothschild territory when he writes: "I'm just speculating, of course, but is it possible that InfraGard will be a domestic police and spying arm for the government concerning "thought crime"?" It's not just speculation, it's uninformed speculation. InfraGard is not part of government and has no police powers of any kind. I've previously addressed the degree to which I think the "spying" is a risk--I think it's relatively low, but worth talking about.Barnett continues in a Rothschild vein when he says "InfraGard, on the other hand, is an organization cloaked in secrecy. It holds secret meetings with the FBI." This talk of InfraGard being "cloaked in secrecy" is grossly exaggerated. The group has fairly open membership and most meetings are open to the public. When there are meetings restricted to membership, those typically wouldn't be accurately described as "secret meetings with the FBI." I and other members of InfraGard have had private meetings with FBI agents with respect to particular investigations, but it would be inaccurate to describe those as "InfraGard meetings." Law enforcement by its very nature requires a high degree of confidentiality for ongoing investigations, but it is a mistake to infer that this means conspiratorial plotting or spying.
Towards the end of his article, Barnett talks about warrantless wiretapping, telecom immunity, and the secrecy of InfraGard membership:
Considering the recent attempts by President Bush and his administration to protect many telecommunications companies and executives from prosecution for releasing private information, how many of the top telecom executives are members of InfraGard? I, for one, would be very interested in this information, but alas, it is not public information; it is secret.What's the sense in which InfraGard membership is secret? Only in that it's not made available to the general public. Barnett writes that "no one outside InfraGard is to know who is a member unless previous approval has been given," but this is his misinterpretation of a guideline he quotes, not what it says. There's nothing prohibiting an InfraGard member from identifying themselves as such, only from identifying others as such without their consent. And if you're going to speak on behalf of InfraGard, you need to get approval from the organization first. (And note that I'm not speaking on behalf of InfraGard here, and have had no approval from InfraGard for what I've written on my blog.) If you're an InfraGard member, you have access to the online directory of InfraGard members. If Barnett is really interested in knowing who is a member, all he has to do is join.
As for "how many of the top telecom executives are members of InfraGard," I haven't looked, but I would be willing to wager that the answer is none. I know that none of the members of the "Senior Leadership Team" of my company are members of InfraGard, though my boss, our VP of Global Security, heads the Rochester, NY chapter of InfraGard. Senior executives of large corporations don't have time or interest to belong to InfraGard, and it's not really geared to them, as opposed to members of their physical and IT security organizations.
And as for warrantless wiretapping (I said I'd get back to it), InfraGard has nothing to do with that and it's foolish to think that it would. That activity has involved direct relationships between incumbent telecom providers (AT&T certainly, and probably Verizon as well) and the National Security Agency, with information restricted to employees holding government security clearances on a "need to know" basis, as the ACLU and EFF lawsuits have revealed. These relationships also probably include commercial relationships, and have included movement of personnel from one to the other--for example, AT&T has a Director of Government Solutions who came from the NSA. InfraGard members, many if not most of which hold no government security clearances, are not in the loop on that activity. (For that matter, I suspect few FBI personnel are in the loop on that, either.)
I find it discouraging that articles like Barnett's are written and published. Such inaccurate information serves to distract from real issues and real government abuses and to discredit those who repeat it, when they have other things to say that are worth hearing, paying attention to, and acting upon. I hope that Barnett and FFF will strive for greater accuracy in the future.

May is Asthma Awareness Month—a perfect time to raise awareness about asthma and how it affects millions of people in the United States.
May is Asthma Awareness Month—a perfect time to raise awareness about asthma and how it affects millions of people in the United States. Asthma is a serious, sometimes life-threatening respiratory disease that affects the quality of life for millions of Americans. Although there is no cure for asthma yet, asthma can be controlled through medical treatment and management of environmental triggers.
In the United States alone, almost 7 million children have asthma, which is one of the most common serious chronic diseases of childhood. In addition, asthma is a leading cause of hospital emergency department visits and school absenteeism. Asthma is the third-ranking cause of hospitalization among children under 15. Additionally, an average of one out of every 10 school-aged children has asthma. Asthma continues to be a rapidly growing public health problem.
Asthma has a significant impact on the learning of our children. 13 million school days are missed each year due to asthma. This can be a real issue for school districts as they work to increase student achievement. School districts face the ever increasing challenge of making sure school buildings are healthy for all students, especially those with asthma. Research by the Environmental Protection Agency and other groups has shown that dust mites, molds, cockroaches, pet dander, and secondhand smoke trigger asthma attacks. In many of our old school buildings, school administration must work tirelessly to ensure they are addressing the needs of students with asthma.
On a day to day basis the school nurse frequently plays a key role in helping students manage asthma in the school setting. If significant needs arise, regional specialists at the SW/WC Service Cooperative are available to assist the schools special education teams by:
· working with school teams to review medical and educational reports and records to determine how and if asthma is impacting student learning,

When it comes to racing games, the cars are the star of the show. This is no more true than with the Gran Turismo franchise. Polyphony Digital's adherence to realism is unparalleled, giving you the closest thing to sitting behind the wheel of the real cars this side of a test drive.
To give you a taste of what'll be in the full Gran Turismo 5 release, we're going to run through the vehicles of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue. Every day we'll have a new car for you to drool over, complete with an in-car shot and a snippet of a race replay so that you can see it in action.
Today's car is the 2002 Mercedes-Benz SL 55 AMG (R230). Have a look.

Influenced by an expansive range of artists, genres and styles, Alan Grosvenor and Scott Worley of Jatun learned to interpret and appreciate sound from a broad perspective. Such open ears have facilitated an understanding of sonic interplay, and acute attention to arrangement and detail. Armed to the teeth with an arsenal of quality, vintage gear and a penchant for capturing the resultant noises, they craft music thoroughly and thoughtfully. Lush, enveloping and hyper-textured, Jatun's songs blanket themselves around your ears and saturate your head with warm and intoxicating, Orange-tinged tones.
"Other Electricities delivers once again! Take all the good things you like about M83, add some Album Leaf, throw in some delicate vocals, record it and play it back through Soundwave (Transformer's reference guys) and you have Jatun." -Insound
"'Ghost and Grey,' is one of the best songs of the year with its sweet shoegazing ambience, electronic beats, synths, and catchy vocals. The rest of the album is pretty much in the same vein. So if you'd like to hear a 65daysofstatic/Hammock hybrid with My Bloody Valentine-esque vocals, then check out Jatun." -Decoy

I'm curious what the community thinks about the ouster (under pressure) of Brendan Eich from Mozilla.
Should someone be deprived of their livelihood for contributing to a candidate or cause with which we don't agree? Is it OK for a company to push someone out for personal views contrary to company policy that are not expressed on company time? Is it OK for people to try to force a company to fire someone because they don't care for the person's personal views or contributions?
In all cases? In some cases?
For those not familiar, here's a blog that sort of gives both sides of the argument, in that it quotes heavily from one while presenting another.
Eich, for those who are not aware, was the co-founder of Mozilla, its chief technical officer, and the developer of Javascript which is used across the web.
Views: 570
People vote at the polls, but also with their dollars. We forget how much power consumers can have. Corporate officers have a responsibility to promote the company; not cause damage. He let his personal beliefs conflict with his public business responsibility, and realized it and did the right thing.
Apparently you can have those beliefs and still sell fried chicken. That's OK with me. I had chicken once. It tastes like possum.
If Eich said "I wouldn't want my son to marry a black woman" or "I'm glad my son isn't a Jew" or if he donated money to organizations unsympathetic to Black equality ... he would never have made CEO in the first place. Gay equality is still not taken as seriously as other equality in the United States.
And there's a reason for that. It's hard to raise gay marriage to the same level as black equality or Jewish acceptance for two major historical reasons: slavery and the holocaust. It's not like he endorsed putting people in chains, working people to death, or exterminating gays in death camps.
I disagree with him, but to claim some sort of parity with the situation of the blacks and Jews simply doesn't hold a lot of water.
1. All discrimination is wrong. A gay guy not being hired at a job for being gay is just as repugnant (and just as illegal) as not hiring a black man for being black. And the gay guy deserves to be defended just as much as the black man. We wouldn't because gay people weren't slaves in the past? They get less protection? If a CEO publically said "I don't want my son to marry a black woman" he would be out before the end of the day. This guy donates money to an organization against equality and says he wouldn't want his son to marry a man and it's "free speech". Black people can get married because they were once slaves but gay people can't because they weren't? Gag.
2. Gay people have been persecuted (and nastily so) WAY before jews and African-american slaves ever existed. Would you like a beheading in Arabia? Or raped with a hot poker? Or being castrated for sodomy? Or hung in Iran. A pink triangle in Dakau? Set on fire in Kiev? How about being pummeled to death in Idaho? Having guys beat you up and piss on you in Moscow? Or your head bashed in by your father? Or dragged through the streets in Uganda? Or jocks forcing you to eat shit. Or a group of soldiers mouth raping you for looking efiminate? To just what degree to gay people need to have been persecuted to be protected?
First, illegality is beside the point because we're not talking the law, we're talking ethics. All discrimination is wrong? Not so. Discriminating against pedophiles is wrong? Discriminating against smokers in many situations seems proper enough. If the gay guy deserves to be defended just as much as the black guy, then by your logic the smoker (or pedophile) deserves the same, right? Make no mistake: I support gay marriage, but on a scale from horrifically offiensive to banally offensive, it's more toward the banal end (not AT the banal end), but that may be due to my attitude toward marriage.
Gays are not generally subjected to beheadings or rapes with hot pokers. Certainly violence against gays happens, as it does against elderly people, handicapped people, women, and men of the wrong race in the wrong place. Gays ARE protected here against that sort of thing, though like most such "protections" the "protection" consists of prosecuting offenders after the fact. I do feel sorry for gays facing the marriage problem. I wish I could find my magic wand. I'd wave it and make gay marriage legal everywhere. However, any attempt to equate it with slavery or the holocaust is actually rather laughable.
If you really think that gay people today don't get executed in the Middle East and that gays don't have their faces bashed in in Russia and that 100 years ago in America openly gay people were murdered, jailed or tortured ... then there's no point in continuing this conversation with you.
Whether gay marriage is a basic human right is not written in granite (only a god could do that). So, it's a legislative matter and legislation is based upon the opinions of the constituents in a political jurisdiction.
Who gets basic rights and what those rights are are contingent and historical. For example, sex between men and teenaged boys was entirely okay according to the Greeks, and happens as a matter of course in some other cultures in the Pacific islands and among some Native American tribes (at least, until the white man arrived).
Gays will have full rights when the public wants them to, which clearly is happening apace.
By now, you must know that I don't believe in human rights except insofar as they are legislated. Any other conception of them falls into the "imaginary" category.
It seems clear to me that Eich quit after realizing he was not a good "fit" with Mozilla's corporate culture to a degree that would make him ineffective in his role as CEO. It seems to me that was an excellent decision on his part.
And sometimes, it's discriminatory.
Well, discrimination (the ability to discern differences and distinctions) isn't necessarily bad.
Judgments of fairness are just as much a cultural artifact as aesthetic judgments. Fairness can be judged by the result or in terms of the process. In other words, we could decide to invalidate any process that treats Icelanders as equal to us or to be as deserving to us.
Anyway, "That's not fair!" is the sort of bleat one hears out of four year olds. It's a sign of weakness. The strong don't complain, they take what they want.
You forgot atheists, LOL. Unlike blacks (or 25% to 100% Jewish blooded persons living in Europe in the 1930s, for example) gays and lesbians could stay in the closet and have stayed in the closet to save themselves from the levels of persecution that blacks or Jews received. I think in many countries during various decades they were no less hated, just way more invisible.
But have it your way. You essentially claim that Icelandic marriage in the United States could be invalidated fairly.
Go ahead then. Present your case. Invalidate those undeserving Icelandic marriages and we'll judge the fairness of the process and result.
This sort of judgment involves attitudes, not facts. So, no "case" can settle the issue. In fact, all ethical arguments are about competing attitudes, not competing facts. The only facts involved are over what the attitudes are. Whether denying Icelanders marriage rights in the US is fair or not is a matter of perception and perceptions are colored by attitudes. Attitudes are a matter of fashion.
Seventy years ago, when I was under 10, the attitude was that interracial marriage was wrong. Today we find that idea ludicrous and backward. Who knows what attitudes we have today, thinking ourselves liberal, will be adjudged backward. Perhaps in the future people will a so-called "human right" to marry their pets and the days when people could not might be seen as "the bad old days."
Unseen, how can you reconcile your postmodernism with your Ubermesnch attitude and your indifference to gay rights. It doesn't make any sense.
@Gallup's Mirror - The issue is that you claim to have an argument which invalidates Icelandic marriage fairly, that is, by a process that is just, impartial and honest.
I made no such claim. But, once again, whether a process is just, impartial, and honest is subject to attitudes. Value judgments can't be elevated to the level of fact, whether it's your evaluation of whether Rush is the greatest rock trio of all time or whether Rembrandt's Night Watch is better than Vermeer's Lacemaker or whether giving Icelanders the right to marry is the right thing to do. The only way to come partway to settling any of those things is through various fallacious appeals, usually some sort of appeal to marjority thinking.

jmchood needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 142 designs submitted by 23 freelance designers.
Ten Day Close
We are a mortgage company with a ten day close guarantee. You can see our new site that just launched at tendayclose.com. We want a logo that has the same general color scheme as our site. You can see our site at http://www.tendayclose.com.
Our target audience is consumers, Realtors and other loan officers.
Logo needs to have the professional look that inspires confidence.
If possible, I would like to see an icon be part of the logo somehow that we can brand the icon and the words "Ten Day Close" seperately if needed.
For example, we may just want the icon on some things and when people saw the icon, they would immediately know it was for the Ten Day Close.
I don't have any files to upload, but you can see our website to get a feel for what else we have. The logo will go in the top left corner.
