If you are a football player you should not be bulking and cutting. You should be trying to get stronger and be doing plyos, agility drills and sprints. Unless your coach tells you to lose weight you should not be bulking and cutting, that is Bodybuilding. It is a completely different sport than football.
And some kids are in high school and just want to play good football and still get a date on Friday night (LOL).

Tax Savers
Farming businesses can benefit from increased Section 179 expense deduction and extension of bonus depreciation.
| By David P. Webb
and D. Nathan Smith
President Obama signed into law the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 on Sept. 27, 2010 (the "Act"). The Act extended or introduced provisions designed to lessen the tax burden of small businesses. Many of these tax-saving provisions will be available to assist in the farming business. The two biggest ones will be the increased Section 179 expense deduction and the extension of bonus depreciation.
Increased Section 179 Expensing
The Section 179 expense deduction typically available to businesses is $250,000. However, the Act increases the deduction to $500,000 for qualified property purchased and placed in service in 2010 and 2011.
Note that the Section 179 expense deduction begins a dollar-for-dollar phase out when qualifying property of $2,000,000 or greater is placed in service. If qualifying property exceeding $2,500,000 is placed in service, the expense deduction will be completely phased out. The Act also extends the definition to include "qualified real property." Importantly for farmers, qualified real property includes leasehold improvement property used in the trade or business. Up to half of the $500,000 expense deduction may be qualified leasehold improvement property.
Extension Of Bonus Depreciation
Because property that qualifies for Section 179 expensing also typically qualifies for bonus depreciation, the two deductions may be combined for qualifying property. The interaction of the two deductions is demonstrated in an example shown in the yellow box.
Other Provisions
Five-Year Carryback Of General Business Credits
Removal Of Cellular Phones As Listed Property
Deduction For Health Insurance Costs In Computing Self-Employment Tax
Relaxed Penalty For Failure To Disclose Reportable Transactions
Currently the mandatory penalty for failing to disclose a reportable transaction is $10,000 for individuals and $50,000 for all others. Listed transactions carry a mandatory penalty of $100,000 in the case of individuals and $200,000 for all others.
Under the Act, the penalty is made proportional to the actual tax savings that were the object of the transaction. Failure to disclose a reportable transaction now results in a penalty equal to 75 percent of the reduction in tax reported on the taxpayer's return as a result of participation in the transaction. A minimum penalty of $5,000 for individuals and $10,000 for all others is established, and the maximum level for all penalties is capped at the levels of the mandatory penalties prior to passage of the Act. The revised penalty structure is effective for all Section 6707A penalties assessed after Dec. 31, 2006.
In conclusion, the Act creates the opportunity for substantial tax savings for farmers who have been contemplating purchases of equipment or other property for the trade or business. Bonus depreciation will only be available for property that is purchased in 2010, but the increased Section 179 expense deduction will be available for property purchased in 2010-2011. Farmers also should consider if other tax-saving provisions of the Act may be applicable to their business.
David P. Webb and D. Nathan Smith are tax attorneys with Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, PC in its Jackson, Miss., office.

Amanda and I are working hard to get the survey results ready for release. Hope to have something out in May if not sooner. The data is almost overwhelming and the information coming out of it is very interesting. It tells us a lot, especially how different people are when they leave religion.
I'll be talking a couple of times in May on the results.

SXSW is just around the corner, and for those who are headed to Austin here are a couple of must sees from our chart.
On top this week is RDGLDGRN (Read that Red Gold Green), a DC band whose sound can be described as Go Go indie pop. The trio are signed to Fairfax Records and released their self-titled debut EP in early February, which they recorded at Sound City Studios (The subject of Dave Grohl's much-talked-about documentary). According to their social data the EP has been well received. In the past month they have seen almost a 100% increase in new Facebook page likes compared to the previous, about 30% of their total, more than 500,000 video views on VEVO, and are about to hit 50,000 plays all time on SoundCloud. RDGLDGRN will be playing Latitude 30 on Saturday March 16th.
Hip Hop duo out of Canada, The Airplane Boys, are also heading down to play the festival this year, and just snagged the second slot on our chart. Beck Motley and Bon Voyage have been making music together for several years now, but recently put out their third project, a 10-track mix tape entitled Brave New World, and saw a big spike in numbers around the release. With about 30,000 plays on SoundCloud in the two weeks surrounding, they saw a 172% increase from the fortnight prior, bringing their total to more than 150,000. They will soon hit 10,000 page likes on Facebook and have more than 5,000 followers on Twitter. The Airplane Boys will be playing Bar 96 on March 14th, but get there early as they are set to go on at 3 pm!
Tenth on the chart is a band that will be returning to SXSW this year. A revival rock six-piece band, Bronze Radio Return are from Hartfold, Connecticut. They dropped SHAKE! SHAKE! SHAKE! in March 2011, have been touring extensively since, and are about to release another album in the coming year. In the two weeks leading up to their Next Big Sound chart placement, the band saw a large increase across their social platforms. 8,500 new plays on SoundCloud meant a more than 70% boost in comparison to the two weeks prior. With close to 600 new Facebook page likes they reached the 10,000 marker, and are inching steadily closer to 4,000 Twitter followers. Bronze Radio Return will be playing several shows throughout the week, but their official showcase is at Rebels Honkey Tonk on Saturday March 16th (two hours after the RDGLDGRN show). More dates are listed on their Facebook event page.
These guys are the fastest rising artists across the internet, and if you're gonna be in Austin next week you should seize the opportunity. Be there or be really square.

Please join the Shambhala community for a facilitated contemplation and discussion of difficult conversations around illness and death. How do we know what to say, and more importantly, how or when to say it? How can we speak so that others will truly hear us? And most of all, how can we infuse our speech with clarity and kindness, no matter what words we choose or how much time we may have?
The evening will include an exploration of the kinds of conflicting views that can arise between family members at the end of life, and practical communication tools to help relate to and resolve such issues. Participants will have the opportunity practice listening in an active, non-judgmental way. Meditation, contemplation and small group discussions will deepen our exploration of the topic. Participants are invited to bring examples of difficult issues to explore in the program.
Co-facilitated by Susan Piver and Maryl Schapiro. Susan Piver has spent her life exploring and using the power of speech. She is the New York Times bestselling author of seven books, a workshop leader who teaches internationally, and a blogger who write daily for her 7500+ subscribers. Susan is a student of Sakyong Mipham and an authorized meditation instructor who has been practicing in the Shambhala community since 1995. Maryl Schapiro is a long-time student of Chögyam Trungpa, and has served as a hospice volunteer with Hospice of the Good Shepherd for the past five years. She co-facilitated the year-long contemplative end of life group at the Shambhala Center over the past year.
This is the second of a three-part series on End of Life issues. The first one (March 7th) explored choices at end of life. The third (Friday evening, July 12th) will be on Buddhist teachings and rituals about death and dying. Feel free to invite family and/or friends to these events.

How Many ARM's Set To Reset in 2008...?
A: You wonder quietly to yourself? Thanks to the RealEstateJournal.com we have an idea of what's to come in the ARM reset category of the housing equation for the next 3 years.
In 2007 (from July 1 - December), there are just over $200B worth of home mortgages that are expected to reset into higher interest rates; that is, adjustable rate mortgages or ARM's. Of that $200B, abut $150B was subprime loans, $30B or so of Alt-A (in between subprime and prime, or near prime loans) loans, and about $30B of loans backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
So, whats expected for the next year? Let me break it down for you in comparative purposes to 2007; or just look at the chart.
EXPECTED VALUE OF ARM's RESETTING IN 2008
Subprime - Aprox. $260B of loans set to reset into higher rates
Alt-A - Apox. $30B of loans set to reset into higher rates
Prime - Aprox $15B of loans set to reset into higher rates
Fannie/Freddie Backed - Aprox $50B of loans set to reset into higher rates
TOTAL VALUE OF HOME LOANS SET TO RESET TO HIGHER RATES ---> Aprox $355B
Luckily, according to this study by Deutsch Bank Securities, the dollar amount of home loans expected to reset into higher interest rates for 2009 & 2010 drop significantly. It's 2008 that we have to worry about and how that may or may not further change the lending environment and ultimately housing.
Since banks and lenders have smartened up in the past 6-10 months or so with tighter lending and underwriting standards, less of these adjustable rate loan products were being committed to which explains the drop off expected in 2009 and 2010. Most adjustable rate mortgages are for three or five years; so we are really talking about those who purchase homes between 2004-2006 that we still have to worry about.
There should be some great buying opportunities in the coming year or two as the smoke clears from the mistakes made that led us into this credit/liquidity squeeze. Contrarian investors unite, especially outside Manhattan. As with every recovery, you won't know we are in one until it already happened!
Interesting insights, Noah. I enjoy reading urbandigs.com but I think there's been too much macroeconomic analysis recently. You've built your readership on being Manhattan real estate focused - the bricks and mortar stuff. Not ignoring the very important macroeconomic developments of course, but would love to see a "return to basics" for urbandigs.
Thx for suggestion Sydney! Last 2 weeks has been mostly macro updates given the enormous change in fundamental macro economic conditions. very important to discuss the quickchange in credit markets and how that affects investors.
I'll certainly go back to local market updates and tips in coming weeks!!
I disagree with Sydney. I believe the macro analysis to be as useful if not more useful than the Manhattan real estate information. Reason is that macro ends up affecting everything from your job, mortgage rates, to your property in the end. It is somewhat limiting to just focus on one aspect, while totally ignoring what is happening on the world outside you. I appreciate Noah's insights on the macro since they are much more easy to understand and comprehend than many other bloggers who write about macro.
Thx Johnny! My true passion is the macro, and now that I think I got readers up to date with what is happening, Ill start to slowly add in more local real estate updates as I see changes occur.
But macro will definately be more heavily weighted as the world continues to change so that investors can properly understand what is happening and how to adapt to it for future decisions.
Appreciate the positive feedback!
Micro, Macro... I just like hearing your take on markets.
Thanks for all the insight.
I like the macro - it's useful info and I haven't seen another RE blog that provides this explanation of the markets as it relates to Manhattan RE. Maybe it's too academic for some readers but you can't be all things to all people.
Yeah, macro analysis is key to nyc real estate, perhaps now more than ever. This is a scary time to contemplating one's first home purchase.
good to hear guys! I like that readers of this site share the same interests!
How can all of these adjustable rate mortgages be adjusting UP?
Aren't they tied to the one year treasury? Isn't the one year at 1.4%?
I thought the standard loan was 2.75 over the index with an annual cap of no more than 2% per year and a life of the loan cap at 8 or 10%.
It's interesting how most analysts seem to ignore what may be the biggest category of resets of all. After the pay option arms, which allow for negative amortization (which from what I've been told is a bigger portfolio than subprime was) comes FNMA/FHLMC 30 year fixed interest only. Although these loans have a fixed rate, after the first ten years they convert from an interest only payment to a 20 year fully amortized loan, which will raise the monthly payments 30-40%. As a lender for the past 15 years, I can tell you that I (and everyone) did a ton of these and we can no longer refinance people out of them because they're upside down. Big!!!!!
What about the option-ARMS? Those are going to be worse than subprime and ALT-A, since they have negative amortization built into them.
Exactly - Option-ARMS are bigger then almost everything put together - this article completely ingores those - and those don't taper off until 2012'
Option ARMs are going to blow up in 2010-2011! Click my name for the chart. I'm not buying a house until at least 2012.
A few things missing...
1) Negative Equity Effect across all borrower types. Resets are not all they are cracked up to be especially loans resetting in the past several months when the underlying index values on the T, MTA and LIBOR are historically low. These loans should not be defaulting in such great degree if it were due to resets because many are resetting the same or lower. Granted, when many intermediate-term arms reset they go from interest only to fully amortized, but still nearly 65% of all defaults are coming PRIOR to resets and have for quite some time.
2) The ALT-A universe and larger than the subprime universe in some of the bubble states, CA being one. However, the loan make up looks almost exactly the same as subprime when you compare the two universes side-by-side. http://mrmortgage.ml-implode.com/2008/04/16/mr-mortgage-alt-a-exposedmuch-worse-yet-to-come/
3) Stated Income, No Ratio and No Doc loans. Deutsche put out a report last year saying 90% of those with a light-doc loan lied on their income, 50% by more than 50% and 50% by more than 5%. This is not an ARM exclusive problem, but will also cause defaults across the fixed space for conforming and jumbo loans. Defaults will even be greater on those that could not afford it in the first place couple with negative equity.
4) Shadow inventory driving down prices http://mrmortgage.ml-implode.com/2008/05/09/82/
5) Home equity lines of credit and loans that from 2004-2007 were offered to 100% CLTV by the nations largest banks that have forced most takers into a negative equity position, weakening the risk profile for the first mortgage forcing defaults. http://mrmortgage.ml-implode.com/2008/04/21/home-equity-loan-delinquencies-surgesp-bofa-and-fitch-concur/
6) Pay Option ARMs that reset hard after 2010 through 2012 that cuts across all socio-economic boundaries and are a total loss for the borrower and bank in most cases. http://mrmortgage.ml-implode.com/2008/04/30/the-pay-option-arm-implosionsubprimes-big-brother/
7) Most affordable jumbo loan programs suddenly gone making real estate in the states that drove the real estate boom from 2002-2006 significantly over valued still. To regain the affordibility lost when exotics went away, 30-year fixed rate mortgage must drop below 2%. http://mrmortgage.ml-implode.com/2008/04/29/how-much-house-can-you-afford-are-you-sure/
Perhaps in Nebraska and Wyoming the housing crisis is coming to an end but not in the half dozen, or so, states that were the housing bubble. These states just so happen to hold 70% of the US population and are responsible for most of the US GDP as well. Dennis Kneale love to talk about how this is NOT a national problem because it only effects so few states. Take CA, NV, AZ, CO, OH, FL etc out of the United States and everything would look much different Dennis.
Best, Mr Mortgage
According to this study by Deutsch Bank Securities, the dollar amount of home loans expected to reset into higher interest rates for 2009 & 2010 drop significantly.

Welcome to
Lewy Physical Therapy Baton Rouge and Denham Springs
0%of our patients rate their overall experience as exceptional or above average
Danny and Shannon Lewy started Lewy Physical Therapy in 2001 with the intent of providing the highest quality of Physical and Occupational Therapy for those in the Baton Rouge and surrounding areas. Understanding that it was difficult for working patients to attend therapy during normal business hours, an after-hours program was established along with Saturday morning clinics. They also noticed that many patients have a difficult time performing traditional exercises with typical equipment while suffering from acute pain.
We know how to handle acute pain. But, don't just take our word for it.

Republican group to caucus
I encourage all Republicans to attend the upcoming Republican precinct caucuses being held Feb. 13. Unlike the Democrats, who are not holding precinct caucuses, Republicans value the input of all Republicans and encourage the grassroots to guide our political path by electing delegates to our county convention and crafting our party's platform. These caucuses provide the opportunity for Republicans to come together at various locations to discuss pressing issues facing our local communities, state and country.
So, if you are a Republican — conservative, moderate or mainstream — and want to return common sense principles and integrity back to our government, come to the Republican caucuses this Saturday. We will be holding meetings in Bremerton, Port Orchard, Poulsbo, Silverdale and Bainbridge Island. To find your caucus location based on where you are registered to vote, go to http://www.kitsaprepublicans.com.

Rails Authorization With Pundit
I've completed a new tutorial on Rails authorization with Pundit.
RailsApps subscribers are getting tutorials every month:
- June - Pundit Quickstart Guide
- May - Devise Quickstart Guide
- April - RSpec Quickstart Guide
- April - Learn Ruby on Rails for Rails 4.1
- March - Bootstrap and Foundation Guides
You can join RailsApps to get the tutorials and support the project. Coming next is a tutorial on OmniAuth.
Role-Based Authorization
The new tutorial covers role-based authorization, showing how to use the Active Record enum feature in Rails 4.1 to add a role attribute to a User model. You can set up roles for administrators, users with free or premium plans, or any other system of privileges. The tutorial shows how you can set up simple role-based authorization without any extra gems. For more complex applications, the tutorial introduces the Pundit authorization gem.
Pundit or CanCan?
The CanCan authorization gem has been popular since Ryan Bates released it four years ago (it's been recently replaced by its successor, CanCanCan). CanCan provides a domain-specific language that isolates all authorization logic in a single Ability class. As an application grows in complexity, the CanCan Ability class can grow unwieldy. Every authorization request requires evaluation of the full CanCan Ability class, adding performance overhead. Like CanCan, Pundit offers the advantage of segregating access rules into a central location. In Pundit, it's a folder named app/policies/ containing plain Ruby objects that implement access rules. Pundit policy objects are lightweight, adding authorization logic without as much overhead as CanCan. Pundit is well-suited to the service-oriented architecture that is growing in popularity among Rails developers, emphasizing object-oriented design with discrete Ruby objects providing specialized services.
In-Depth Pundit Tutorial
For a small gem, Pundit has a surprising number of features. The RailsApps tutorial goes into depth, covering:
- set up with a starter app
- adding roles to the User model
- access rules in a policy object
- authorization in controllers
- authorization in views
- scoped database queries
- strong parameters
- adding RSpec tests for authorization
It's the only in-depth guide to Pundit. I appreciate the support from RailsApps subscribers that made it possible to release this tutorial.

Three out of the five bands listed as their "influences" on FB are ones I've seen around lately so it makes sense that I felt like I had been missing something when I saw them with Advaeta and YVETTE at Shea in January. I haven't gotten to see them since, but apparently they have some ties with Sofa Club that I will investigate further when I get to that post.
Honestly, I took a pass at their bandcamp and didn't really go back (could also be because January was a hellacious work time for me) so I don't have MUCH to say which means check it out for yourselves.
I also can NOT find a video, but FORTUNATELY the video for their track The Street (also embedded below in lieu of flashy movie) drops this weekend so I'll add it once its avails
EDIT: avails.

"It has been a long two months and the Council has worked through some difficulties but in the end Metro Louisville will see a new arena built," said Budget Chairman Rick Blackwell (D)12. "We never lost sight of that goal."
Leader Jim King. (D) 10. "Our primary responsibility was to review and approve a resolution for a downtown arena. We have saved taxpayer dollars and ensured that all who want to can work on this project."
In a special meeting, the Council acted on a revised Memorandum of Agreement identical to the one approved and later vetoed.. A compromise was worked out between Democrats and Republicans giving unions a role in monitoring work conditions and safety for the project.
"We have set aggressive goals for minorities and women employees and contractors," said Council woman Cheri Bryant Hamilton (D)5. "We now look to the Arena Authority and the state to fulfill its promises."
The Metro Council began its review of the original Memorandum of Agreement in early June. The Budget Committee spent many hours reviewing the cost and provisions of that agreement.
The Committee found a way to save a potential $100 million in taxpayer dollars over the life of bonds in the project.
The vetoed resolution included a requirement that unions and non unions be allowed to work on the Arena project as well as these other goals:
In approving the revised resolution, the Council has given a green light to having a union representative join the special committee that will monitor the project by unions for safety and prevailing wage.
"This project is good for all of us," said Councilman Bob Henderson (D) 14. "It does not matter where you are in Jefferson County, we have come together to make this project work."
The resolution moves on to Mayor Jerry Abramson for his signature.Sponsor(s):David Tandy (D) 4Cheri Bryant Hamilton (D) 5Rick Blackwell (D) 12Bob henderson (D) 14

The repeal-monger hypocrisy continuesPosted on November 29th, 2010 by HCAN California in Action
On the campaign trail, Congressman-elect Andy Harris (R-MD) railed against "government take-over" of health care and then the very first thing he did upon coming to Capitol Hill for freshman orientation was to ask for his.
And when Harris was told he had to wait for his tax payer-sponsored health care, he did what you'd expect all conservatives who ran against health care to do: he got cranky! Harris, who's also a physician, even asked if he could get coverage from "some government-sponsored insurance" until his Congressional coverage kicked in!
Click here and join the fight against the Republican repeal hypocrisy. Don't let them accept health care from tax-payers while they try to take ours away.
The repeal-mongers want to let insurance companies deny people coverage due to pre-existing conditions and drop people when they get sick. They want to get rid of the small-business tax credit and repeal measures to cut down waste, fraud and abuse in Medicare. In short, they want to revert back to the way things used to be!
If Republicans have their way, the insurance companies will get the profits and we'll get the shaft. HCAN-California will stand alongside the thousands of activists already calling for an immediate end to this deplorable and selfish behavior from the conservatives who support repeal.
Your voice will show that Californians are committed to protecting the gains we've already achieved under the health care law and that we're united in standing firm to get the best health care possible!

Chicago police hunt for gunman after bank standoff
The Chicago Tribune
A SWAT unit left the area about 1:15 p.m., and a principal at a nearby school that had been on lockdown for hours said police had told him the hostage situation had ended. There were still street closures in the area, however.
A standoff with at least one armed robber, thought to be male, began about 9:42 a.m. at the First Commercial Bank branch, 6945 N. Clark St., authorities said.

Q: Our remodeling company has contracted to do a room addition that will be elevated over an existing concrete driveway. We will need to install a concrete footing at the edge of the existing driveway slab. I'm worried that when we excavate for the footing, the fill under the slab will cave into...
Q: During a countertop installation, one of the screws popped through and chipped off a 1/4-inch-diameter piece of laminate. Is there a way to make a repair without replacing the whole countertop?

Switcher Profile: Apple's 'halo effect' claims former editor of Windows Magazine
Cult of Mac writer Mike Elgan recently detailed the years-long process that convinced him to switch to the Mac. His story is fairly typical of many switchers: Once a die-hard PC evangelist, his first Apple product was the iPod, which he appreciated for its ease of use. The iPhone eventually...
Is Apple the new Microsoft?
So claimeth Mike Elgan of Computerworld in his article on PC World: "It's Official: Apple is the New Microsoft." Well, I'm certainly glad that is settled! On to the iPhone news... Wait a moment, on what grounds does Mike base his comparison? I'll break down the points and test their coherence....

A Dalton, Ga., man who had murder charges dismissed in November was found dead in his grandmother's basement.
A family member found Bryan Dennington on his couch dead on Friday, days after he had last been seen alive, Dalton Police Department spokesman Bruce Frazier said. Dennington has lived in his grandmother's basement for several years.
There is no evidence of foul play, Frazier said.
Last April, Dennington was charged with multiple charges including felony murder after he was involved in a fatal stabbing with his friend William Vaughn.
The men had been in an argument in the car before the fight started, authorities said. But after Dennington was arrested and spent six months in jail, the Whitfield County Grand Jury dismissed his case.
Prosecutors said the evidence showed Dennington was acting in self defense.

This shot
FLash left of rider at full power, flash right of right at 1/4 I think.
Under exposed the sky to get the most out of the dull day, flashes to help the rider..POP
I used skyports to trigger, sigma and vivitar flashes.
Was thinking the same thing...I know skys look more dramatic in mono, but would love to see the colour version of this....but love the shot. Really nicely done
again another cracking shot framing the subject with the dramatic landscape
There is a colour version on here somewhere in my pics etc but due to the miserable day it lacks the power of the black and white version.
Thanks for the comments. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread. Always nice to see different techniques etc.
Hey guys
Here is another upload from the set I did over at Hatfield Forest with my work friend...
Just a quick point...I don't think my last upload was THAT bad, yet I had very, very few votes and comments and thought that actually, it was one of my better shots.....
Is there a reason for this? Are they THAT bad? Here is the second one. Be honest. Again, I really like this one, but is there anything fundamentally wrong with it? I have seen recent uploads that I think are good, but they aren't utterly fantastic, yet get absolutely LOADS of votes and comments......am I doing something totally wrong?
Let me know what you think. Vivitar 283 on full power up high camera left, sunlight camera right, f8-9 ish, reflective umbrella......
Cheers people!
i really like it too mate. Had my first efforts when i started out down this path been as good as yours i would've been well happy. As for votes i think that its down to a combination of things. One being that there are not a great deal of users on here that understand flash and to that end don't appreciate the effort that can go into getting a good shot. You have so many balls to juggle with lighting and camera settings etc then finding locations and posing the model etc. Also i have noticed that portraits, environmental or otherwise notoriously just don't do that well on here. I could be wrong but it's just my tuppenceworth
No, fair points all around Dave. I don't get it sometimes. I don't mean to sound mean spirited and bitter, but sometimes I am amazed at the shots that get LOADS of votes and comments and I do feel that they really aren't that good, yet some shots on this site that are just utterly out of this world, or shots that push the boundaries or are totally original, get absolutely diddly.....I don't put my images in any of those latter categories to be honest, but I do feel they have an edge over "some" of the images of a similar vein, yet THEY get loads of votes....it does make you wonder if you are doing something really quite fundamentally wrong and can be quite demoralising.....but I guess you have to take in all the considerations you have mentioned above. I should stop being so sensitive and just enjoy and love what I do I guess......lol!
Thanks for the feedback though Dave. Glad you liked the image
yeah its a bone of contention on the site mate, and certainly has been for as long as i have been here which is only a few years. If i am honest in the beginning i think i was a vote monger but as my work has matured and i am comfortable with where my photography is now it is no longer important to me. Maybe it's just phases we all go through i guess
Yeah, I know, I shouldn't let it worry me and just be happy with what I do....and this last set, I am definitely that!
OK guys, just found this thread and thought I'd join in as I'm trying my best to improve my off camera flash technique. I've put this shot in my pf so I hope you all don't mind me posting it here for comment as well.
My friends daughter in her wedding dress on a jetty on Coniston last night. We were hoping for a nice calm sunset but got cloud and wind so had to change our plan. I under exposed the background by about a stop and lit Steph with a bare speedlight on 1/4 power hidden behind the jetty post, trigerred with Pocket Wizards.
I'd love to hear your comments on this shot.
Wow! Its dramatic, will give you that! I think maybe the case as with my first upload is that there isn't quite enough light on the face and its a bit "focused"....but the sky, the idea, the lines, the look and idea are superb! I love this image! What a cracking idea and NEARLY perfection.....superb stuff!
i agree with Johnny, i think because you have lit from below you have got a little bit of heavy shadow on the side of the face and around the eye sockets. Not sure what you could've done really to soften that light Darren as there is no where else to hide the strobe. The only thing maybe would've been to put the strobe behind and above you and zoomed to 200mm and through a diffuser of some sort.
These are all minor things and there is no doubting the impact of the shot mate and it is still a top notch effort, anyway i am still learning so i am no authority on it either
Cheers guys. I accept the comment on the dark face and this is actually my second attempt for that exact reason. I then angled the strobe up as much as I could to try to get more light on Stephs face but was restricted as to where I could place the strobe. I also had a 2 stop ND Grad on for more drama in the sky so that may have encroached over Steph's face a little.
Yeah, not always easy really when circumstances tend to bugger up your plans! lol! Had it a lot and had to compromise and its a bit of a pain, so we do our best. The ND grad did have a cracking effect on that sky though...love that!

UPDATED: Kidnap Attempt Thwarted By Fast-Footed Victim [1]
UPDATED 5:54 p.m. Friday. A suspect arrested Thursday morning for the attempted kidnapping of a 13-year old boy will not be charged, according to the Los Angeles District Attorney's office.
Javier Benetiz Garcia, 56, was arrested at 7 a.m. Thursday and booked at the Santa Clarita Valley sheriff's station. The District Attorney refused to file charges because of a lack of evidence that Garcia is the actual suspect.
The victim was walking north on Camp Plenty Road near Soledad Canyon Road when he was approached by a man he described as as a male Hispanic in his late 30s. The victim escaped by running toward Sierra Vista Junior High School, where he is a student.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking news alerts delivered right to your inbox [3]
School officials reported the incident and deputies immediately began a search of the area, looking for the compact car that they boy described.
Sierra Vista Principal Mark Crawford kept in touch with parents of his students, sending an email out Thursday advising them of the arrest and thanking them for being vigilant. The morning of the attempt, he also sent this message:
"Early this morning, well before the beginning of school, there was an incident involving one of our students as he was walking to campus. The student was unharmed and is safe. The Sheriff Department was contacted immediately and they are currently investigating the incident. The student did the correct thing by running away from the situation and coming directly to school.
Safety of our students is the #1 priority here at Sierra Vista. With that in mind, please exercise the following safety tips for coming to and from school:
- When walking to school always have your student walk with a friend or group.
- When driving your student to school, make sure your drop off/pick up point is as close to campus as possible.
- And finally, try to make sure your drop off/pick up times are as close to the beginning or end of the school day as possible.
By working together and following these safety tips, we can best ensure the safest possible environment for our students."

Dear Kini,
32-year-old Mark Carson was walking down a street in New York City on Friday evening when a man came up to him and his friends, yelled "f—-ot" and "queer," and shot him in the head.
Mark's horrific death is part of a string of anti-LGBT violence in New York City and bias-motivated crime around the country. It could have been you, your friend, your son or daughter.
Hate crimes are sadly nothing new, but we've written an open letter to the mayors of every major U.S. city and all 50 governors to capture the spirit we're all feeling right now: horror, outrage, and a determination that love will conquer hate even in a moment as awful as this one.
If you agree, I'm hoping you'll sign on.
Dear Human Rights Campaign:
How dare you ask me to donate after years of pleading and begging for your help? For years, I contacted your agency and you allowed the hatred to spread! You're request should read:
45 year old Kini Cosma was walking down a street in Napa, California on Friday evening when the above female police officer, Debbie Peecook, decided to arrest Cosma because she looked like a lesbian. Matter of fact, Cosma was arrested over 25 times by the same above female officer just for walking down the street. Cosma was not allowed to travel any further than a 2 mile radius.
The above female officer sent Cosma to prison to get her ass beat, then, sent her to Susanville, California to get her ass beat there. Not satisfied that Cosma was not beat to death, the above female law enforcement officer intended to indirectly cause Cosma's death by a third party. After pilfering her $100k rightfully inherited trust fund and "legally" abducting her two minor sons, California officials ran her out of the State of California to Klamath Falls, Oregon where the female officer had others beat her ass at the High Lake Apartments. The above female officer then had other's beat Cosma's ass at the Harlen Drive property.
Knowing that Cosma was always self-employed, Oregon law enforcement were told to confiscate all of Cosma's business vehicles so she would have to depend on and service American men. One KIamath County Sheriff confiscated her residential van and threw Cosma's underware all over the Fairgrounds property…These very real stories can go on and on and on…To this day, Cosma is not permitted to travel any further than a 2 mile radius.
Cosma's horrific human and civil right violations are a part of a string of anti-LGBT violence in Napa, California and bias-motivated crime around the country. It could have been you, your friend, your son or daughter.
Sadly, arbitrary arrests and malicious prosecutions are nothing new, but we've written an open letter to the mayors of every major U.S. city and all 50 governors to capture the spirit we're all feeling right now: horror, outrage, and a determination that love will conquer hate even in a moment as awful as this one.
Please sign this petition:Shocking violence in Napa, California: Act now!! If you agree, sign on to the letter below to demand equality now.
To our elected leaders:
Kini Cosma didn't do anything wrong. She didn't break any laws, start any fights, or harm anyone. She was simply open about who she was. And for that, she was ordered to be beaten up by law enforcement and other U.S. officials.
Horror and outrage don't fully capture what we're feeling right now. Every LGBT person and ally who hears about this deliberate indifference and the covering up of exculpatory evidence would even have a deeper reaction: That could have been someone I love.
Imagine growing up knowing that your life could be over in an instant. That walking down the sidewalk on an ordinary Friday night, you or your friend could be alive one minute and gone the next. That's the reality. And if it can happen in Napa, California, it can happen anytime, anywhere.
But the real question is what we – you, me, all Americans – are going to do about it.
The answer is that we must not be silent. You pledged to uphold liberty and justice for all, and today I urge you to make those words a reality.
Discrimination remains embedded in this nation's laws. And as long as it trickles down into our schools and our communities, your constituents will continue to suffer from these crimes and the terror they instill. We all have a duty to stand up, ordinary citizens and elected officials alike. Passive support isn't enough.
The next Kini Cosma is out there right now, running out of time. We cannot, must not stop until our nation's laws – at every level – treat all Americans equally, in every aspect of life, with the dignity we all deserve.
We'll do our part. But we need you to do yours. We cannot wait another day to demand her settlement check. We will not let another LGBT, person of color, or a disabled member die at the hands of Debbie Peecook.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family of Kini Cosma, and my heart dwells on the future: a future that allows all people, LGBT or not, to live peacefully and without fear.

84-year-old knits successful support for soldiers
City of Oconomowoc - The Ralph Waldo Emerson quote on living a successful life includes the line "to leave the world a better place."
Oconomowoc's Ginny Gallauer is doing just that.
Inspired by her grandsons' service in the military, Gallauer undertook a modest project in 2010 that she hoped would be a small benefit to wounded soldiers and has kept it moving forward since then.
When she first began with her plan, Gallauer was not sure what kind of an impact she could have on such a great need, but she did not let that stop her from doing all she could.
The now 84-year-old Oconomowoc woman began an endeavor that would turn her hobby of knitting into purposeful action.
She enlisted the aid of area church groups and others and they began to knit dishcloths which are sold in many stores around the area. All the proceeds from the sale of the cloths go to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Having just marked the second anniversary of her charitable project, Gallauer has now raised more than $6,000 as of the middle of November to benefit the cause.
"The handmade dish cloths sell for $2 each or three for $5. There are some large cloths that sell for $3," Gallauer said.
"With lots of help from knitting clubs and church groups in the area, we are proud to say we have sent to the Wounded Warrior Project, based in Jacksonville, Fla., $6,227. Whoopie!" she exclaimed.
The Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) "exists to honor and empower Wounded Warriors who incur service-connected wounds, injuries, and illnesses on or after Sept. 11, 2001. With advancements in battlefield medicine and body armor, an unprecedented percentage of service members are surviving severe wounds or injuries. For every US soldier killed in World Wars I and II, there were 1.7 soldiers wounded. In Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, for every US soldier killed, seven are wounded," the organization noted on its website, www.woundedwarriorproject.org/.
The cloths are sold at the following locations: Amalia's Restaurant, J.C.'s Café, Sweet Dreams, Olde Towne Comfort Shoes, Knitch (in Delafield), Fresh & Green Market, Cooney Sports Locker, Hair Benders, Schwefel's Restaurant, Tips and Toes, Beverly's Designs, Laci Boutique and Vignettes.
For more information on her dish cloth project, or to help Gallauer with fundraising, please contact her at (262) 569-7110.

Skin Problems & Treatments Health Center
Surprising Household Irritants
In less than a month, three patients walked into the dermatology office of Lisa A. Garner, MD, complaining of red, irritated skin that later developed brown streaks. Garner quickly figured out the cause. After accidentally spilling lime juice on themselves — "Margaritas, anyone?" — each patient developed a case of sun-induced dermatitis after going outdoors.
Many of us know that harsh cleaning products are common skin irritants around our homes. But what about the odd culprits—not just lime juice, but tulip bulbs, hand sanitizers, antibiotic ointments, and even metal zippers or snaps?
Recommended Related to Skin Problems & Treatments
Read the Cafe au Lait article > >
If your skin flares up after touching something, the resulting contact dermatitis takes one of two forms, says Garner, a clinical professor of dermatology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and a fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology.
First, in a true allergic reaction, your immune system responds to an offending substance and your skin may turn red and itchy. Second, you might not have an allergy at all, but rather, irritation, which typically causes pain, stinging or burning.
A wide range of substances can cause contact dermatitis, but not in everyone. "Irritation is an interesting concept," Garner says. "It's exceedingly variable from person to person and really has to do with a threshold response to some particular ingredient."
Some surprising offenders:
Hand sanitizers: When swine flu fears were in full swing, Garner saw lots of patients with irritant hand dermatitis after rubbing on way too much hand sanitizer.
"Everyone's afraid of germs, but our skin can't tolerate [hand sanitizer] as much as some people are using it," she says.
In most cases, the active ingredient, ethyl alcohol, is probably causing the irritation, but it's possible that some people are sensitive to other ingredients in the product, she says.
Personal care products: Hair removal products, antiperspirants, and eye cosmetics top Garner's list of potential troublemakers in the bathroom cabinet.
"Hair removal products can be very irritating. It's truly an individual thing, and it depends on what part of the skin you're doing," she says. "If you do hair removal on your face or bikini line, you're much more likely to have irritation than if you do your legs."
The underarms pose another sensitive zone for some people who use antiperspirants. "Their job is to actually clog your sweat glands—that's how they work," Garner says. "It's an area that's warm and sweaty. You've got skin on skin, which always increases your risk of irritation."
Furthermore, Garner has lost count of patients with inflamed eyelids from using too many products. "Not a week goes by that I do not have someone in my office with eyelid dermatitis. The majority of time, this is going to be an irritation reaction."

Earlier this year, Kendra Wilkinson was involved in a fairly-serious head-on collision while driving in California, and now it seems she actually had a stroke following the incident.
According to a report, the former "Girls Next Door" dame suffered a minor stroke a few days after the accident as confirmed by her doctors through a CT scan.

It's one of the hottest shows on television, and Kendra Wilkinson is slated to make an appearance on "The Mindy Project" this season.
While she's always one to enjoy some laughs, Kendra Wilkinson's WEtv series "Kendra On Top" is showing a more dramatic side of the former Playboy Playmate.
During a promo for the upcoming season of her reality series, it seems marriage life isn't appealing as it used to be with the constant fights between her and her husband, Hank Baskett.
Stepping out for an evening of fun, stars turned out in droves at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood for the premiere of "Planes" on Monday (August 5).
Voicing the role of Dottie in the animated comedy, Teri Hatcher looked lovely on the arrivals carpet in a strapless gold frock, while Hilary Duff chose a more casual black jumpsuit with a Donatienne clutch for the event.
Making the return to her roots for the night, Kendra Wilkinson attended the Playboy Radio's Hollywood Casino Night at the West Hollywood Hotel last night (August 1).
While donning a gorgeous blue long-sleeve dress with black heels, the former bunny was all smiles as she walked the red carpet of the benefit.

Getting her drink, dance, and gamble on, Kendra Wilkinson hosted the Hard Rock Heatwave Pool Party at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa, Florida on Friday night (July 26).
Ready to party, the former "Girl Next Door" put on her best sleeveless little black dress with heels as she tried to pose for photos while concentrating on her table betting.

Showing off her super-fit figure, Kendra Wilkinson enjoyed her beach time with hubby Hank Baskett over the weekend.
The Hollywood pair spent their Holiday in Hawaii and the former Playmate looked amazing in a tiny bikini as she frolicked in the gorgeous waves.
They've had a blast being parents to their son Hank IV, and now Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett are ready for another bundle of joy.
The "Girls Next Door" dame and her football-playing hubby took a fourth anniversary trip to Big Bear Lake in SoCal, whereupon they decided it was time to give their son a sibling.

"Adjectives are frequently the greatest enemy of the substantive."
- Voltaire
"[I was taught] to distrust adjectives as I would later learn to distrust certain people in certain situations."
- Ernest Hemingway
"The adjective is the banana peel of the parts of speech."
- Clifton Paul Fadiman
"When you catch an adjective, kill it. No, I don't mean utterly, but kill most of them — then the rest will be valuable. They weaken when close together. They give strength when they are wide apart."
- Mark Twain
"The road to hell is paved with adjectives."
- Stephen King
"[The adjective] is the one part of speech first seized upon and worked to death by novices and inferior writers."
- J.I. Rodale
"Use no superfluous word, no adjective, which does not reveal something."
- Ezra Pound
"The adjective has not been built that can pull a weak or inaccurate noun out of a tight place."
- E.B. White
"[Whoever writes in English] is struggling against vagueness, against obscurity, against the lure of the decorative adjective."
- George Orwell
"Most adjectives are also unnecessary. Like adverbs, they are sprinkled into sentences by writers who don't stop to think that the concept is already in the noun."
- William Zissner

Social Business welcomes Rich Harris: father, artist, web ninja
Summary: What exactly a web ninja? Well, it's exactly what is going to give Social Business the kick in the pants it needs.
What exactly is a "web ninja"? It's someone adept a web marketing from the super complicated strategic development to the super granular execution of said strategy. A web ninja is also analytical and complex, though in a way that brings good questions and information to the surface. What better way to give Social Business a kick in the pants then to invite a web ninja onto the team?
Rich Harris, the ninja in question, has been a web marketer for more than 10 years and has been in the high tech industry for almost 15 years. He's worked in both enterprise and consumer spaces and he's currently running social media for a pretty big company. I've known Rich for about 10 years now and he is a brilliant writer, a hilarious commentator, a very good friend, and, as a bonus, an incredibly talented drummer. I couldn't think of one better person with whom to share this blog.
I truly believe that Rich is going to breathe some new life into this blog. Look for his mug and his posts here soon. He's already written some great guest posts here and he has some fabulous ideas for new content. We've already started talking about some great (and ridiculous!) ideas for collaborative projects, too.

Ray-Casted BlockMaps: Interactive Remote Exploration of Massive Cityscapes
Jul 27, 2009
The BlockMap data structure is an efficient and compact representation which stores in a small texture all the information to render city blocks. Developed at the Visual Computing Laboratory - CNR, it encodes color, normal and ambient occlusion term for the vertical facades and sloped roofs of the buildings. Using modern OpenGL and GLSL for preprocessing and ray-casted visualization, the BlockMap and its evolution are used to build a realtime multiresolution renderer for large urban models.

"Tim Hollier-1970 UK":
Tim Hollier was a folk artist with trippy psychedelic lyrics. Born in Brighton in 1947, Hollier was raised in West Cumberland, and at age 13 formed his first group, The Meteors, with a group of friends from school. He attended art college and played as part of a folk duo called The Sovereigns in the mid-'60s. He later moved to London to study graphic design, and got involved in the folk scene there, seeing some limited success as an opening act for such well-known figures as blues songstress Jo Ann Kelly and visiting American Paul Simon.
It was at UA that Hollier recorded his first album, "Message to a Harlequin" in mid-1968.
He left UA in 1969 and signed with Fontana Records, which issued his self-titled, self-produced second album in the summer of 1970.
