Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Nikon D600 with 3.5X Zoom Lens by Woody Sherman Develop your photography hobby You don't have to be an expert photographer to use an SLR they all offer easy automatic shooting. Because of their build quality and the physics of good glass and large sensors, even their built-in automatic settings will get you better pictures than most point-and-shoots or mobile devices. But experienced photographers and budding hobbyists can get more creative by manually adjusting settings like aperture and shutter speed. SLRs let you expand your shooting options with additional lenses and flashes to suit just about any situation. If you'd like to record the occasional video, look for a model with high-def movie mode. It's got the look Is there anything that can rival that arresting full-frame look? Something about the way a big sensor interacts with well-tuned, big aperture optics makes you stop and look at every image that's generated. The Nikon D600 combines the wonderful creative options of this pairing with an attractive price point. From the moment we saw all the value this product offers, we knew we were going to have a challenge keeping this bad boy in stock. The Nikon D600 full-frame DSLR with on-board flash deployed And the envelope goes to... Let's start with an exciting feature video shooters will appreciate. Building on the success of this camera's big brother, the D800, Nikon chose to once again offer an uncompressed HDMI output on the D600. This gives you the ability to route a pristine broadcast-quality signal to an external recording device or to a high-end critical evaluation monitor. Add the on-board headphone output, audio metering, and external microphone in jack, and you're well on the way to directing your next film festival short. Details we can appreciate At 24.3-megapixels, you'll have plenty of definition for even your most demanding subjects, and with a fast 5.5 frames per second continuous shooting rate at full resolution, you won't miss the perfect moment either. The D600 has twin SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card bays, so you'll be able to keep on shooting with media that's easy to find. And with the high-resolution, 3.2-inch LCD display, you'll be able to compose those shots with ease, especially with the incorporated electronic level keeping everything well-aligned. Making the most of the things you have You'll have more "keepers" as well, because the 39-area autofocus system will lock you in sync with your moving subject, even in low light. And while this camera is optimized for full-frame Nikkor lenses, if you've had an APS-C sensor camera in the past, this camera is compatible with Nikon's DX format lenses as well — using a special crop mode to keep your investment useful. It also has an in-body autofocus motor, so it can use older, non-AF-S lenses. It's an airwave traveler One of the exciting options available for this model is Wi-Fi® camera control and mobile sharing, made possible by the optional WU-1b wireless mobile adapter. Apps are available for your Android™ or Apple® smartphone or tablet. You can share your photos with any compatible Wi-Fi device. Essentially, this allows you to control your camera's shutter from a distance while you view what the camera is seeing, and share those files later. Not only is it awfully handy when you want to be in the picture, it's a big time saver when it's time to get your files in a safe place for storage. Versatile glass This camera includes the versatile AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR zoom lens. With a 3.6X zoom range, it's a multipurpose tool that's sure to make it one of the favorites in your camera bag. This lens will take you from tight interiors and group shots, through great portraits and nicely isolated interview head shots, all with a quick tweak of the zoom control. Take a look at some of the bullets below. Now take a look at the price above. See if you don't agree that this is one of the best values the photography world has seen in a while, feature for feature. To make sure you get the full impact, come back and look at the "details" tab above when we've had a chance to get one in our labs to give it the real shakedown. Quite frankly, we can't wait.

Recording Features Included Lens Optional Accessories Play, Print and Edit Features Battery Information Computer Requirements Recording Features Overview: The D600 is Nikon's new full-frame high resolution DSLR, but in a slightly smaller package than the D800 or D4. This D600 package includes the camera body with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery pack and battery charger, and the AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR high-quality standard zoom lens. Image Sensor: The D600 is equipped with the Nikon FX-format, 35.9 x 24.0mm CMOS image sensor with 24.7 million total pixels (and 24.3 million effective pixels). The Nikon FX format enables photographers to take advantage of the familiar perspective characteristics of 35mm film photography. You can choose to shoot in the FX format, or switch to DX format. Magnesium Alloy Body: The D600 features rugged, durable and lightweight magnesium alloy for the top and rear frames, to achieve better durability and lighter weight. Extensive weather sealing gives the D600 dust- and moisture-proof protection, allowing you to work in harsh environments. EXPEED 3 Image Processing: Nikon's EXPEED 3 technology provides superb image fidelity and reduced noise, even at high ISOs. EXPEED 3 can also handle data-intensive tasks, like Full HD video recording at broadcast quality 30p, with ease.Dual Media Slots: The D600 has dual slots that can accommodate SD, SDHC, and SDXC Memory cards, including UHS-1 cards for faster data transfer. Class 6 or higher write speeds are recommended for movie recording. No memory card is supplied with the camera. When two cards are used, you can choose the role played by the card in slot 2: Overflow: Card in Slot 2 is used only when the card in Slot 1 is full. Backup: Each picture is recorded onto cards in both slots simultaneously. RAW/JPEG: NEF/RAW images are recorded only to the card in Slot 1 while JPEG images are recorded only to the card in Slot 2. Memory Buffer: The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage, allowing shooting to continue while photographs are being saved to the memory card. Up to 100 photographs can be taken in succession. LCD Monitor: The Nikon D600 features 3.2-inch, 921,000-dot (VGA), color TFT LCD monitor with a 170° wide viewing angle and 100% frame coverage. The monitor has adjustable brightness control using an ambient brightness sensor. The D600 features a Live View that lets you use the monitor in place of the camera's viewfinder to confirm your subject and composition while shooting. Optical Viewfinder: In addition to the LCD monitor, the D600 has an eye-level pentaprism single-lens reflex viewfinder with approximately 100% frame coverage in FX format (97% in DX format). It has a diopter adjustment knob so you can set the viewfinder to your personal eyesight (with or without eyeglasses). The bright and sharp viewfinder makes focusing in low-light situations possible. The viewfinder offers approximately 0.7x magnification. The viewfinder uses a Type-B BriteView Clear Matte Mark VIII screen with superimposed AF brackets and on-demand grid lines for clear and accurate focusing of your subject. The camera comes with the DK-5 eyepiece cover to prevent light from entering the viewfinder when shooting self portraits on a tripod. Still Image Size/Quality: The D600 records still images in JPEG and NEF* (RAW) formats. It can also record in both NEF (RAW) + JPEG formats simultaneously. JPEG images can set to fine (1:4 compression), normal (1:8), or basic (1:16) image quality. Depending upon the selected format (image area), you can choose from the following image sizes: Format (Image Area) Large Medium Small FX (36 x 24) 6016 x 4016 4512 x 3008 3008 x 2008 DX (24 x 16) 3936 x 2624 2944 x 1968 1968 x 1312 FX format (Movie Live View) 6016 x 3376 4512 x 2528 3008 x 1688 DX format (Movie Live View) 3936 x 2224 2944 x 1664 1968 x 1112 * RAW data from the image sensor is saved directly to the memory card in Nikon Electronic Format (NEF). Once transferred to a computer, NEF (RAW) images can only be viewed using compatible software such as the supplied ViewNX2 software. Movies: The camera can record broadcast-quality movies in MOV format with MPEG-4/H.264 advanced video coding and Linear PCM audio. Audio is recorded using the built-in monaural microphone, or an external stereo microphone. Image quality can be set to High or Normal. The maximum length of movies are up to 29 min 59 sec (20 minutes for High Quality movies). The available movie options include: Frame Size Frame Rate Maximum Bit Rate 1920 x 1080 30p (progressive) (29.97 fps) 25p (25 fps) 24p (23.976 fps) High Quality: 24 Mbps Normal Quality: 12 Mbps 1280 x 720 60p (59.94 fps) 50p (50 fps) High Quality: 24 Mbps Normal Quality: 12 Mbps 30p (29.97 fps) 25p (23.976 fps) High Quality: 12 Mbps Normal Quality: 8 Mbps 39-Point Autofocus System: The D600 is equipped with the Nikon Multi-CAM 4800 autofocus sensor module with 39 focus points, including 9 cross-type sensors. The center 33 points are available at apertures slower than f/5.6 and faster than f/8 while the center 7 focus points are available at f/8.AF-Area Modes: The D600 offers a choice of four focus area modes that together cover a wide area of the frame. The AF-area mode determines how the focus area is selected and what happens if the subject moves out of the selected focus area while the camera is still focusing. You can choose one of the following AF-area modes: Single-Point AF: The camera will focus on the subject in the selected focus point only. Dynamic Area AF: The camera offers a choice of three different size areas to match the movement of the subject, using groups of 9, 21 or all 39 focus points. 3D-Tracking: In AF-C focus mode, the camera will track subjects that leave the selected focus point and select new focus points as required. Auto Area AF: The camera automatically detects subject and selects focus point. If a face is detected, the camera will give priority to the portrait subject. Focus Modes: You can choose from the following focus modes: Single-servo Autofocus (AF-S): camera focuses automatically when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The focus remains locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The picture will only be taken when the in-focus indicator is displayed. Recommended for stationary subjects. Continuous-servo Autofocus (AF-C): camera focuses continuously while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Photographs can be taken whether or not the camera is in focus. Recommended for moving subjects. Auto-servo Autofocus (AF-A): camera automatically selects single servo autofocus if staionary, continuous servo autofocus if subject is moving. Manual (MF): focus must be adjusted manually using the lens focusing ring Predictive Focus Tracking: In continuous-servo AF, the camera will initiate predictive focus tracking if the subject moves toward or away from the camera while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway or the AF-ON button is pressed. This allows the camera to track focus while attempting to predict where the subject will be when the shutter is released. Focus Lock: Focus Lock can be used to change the composition after focusing, making it possible to focus on a subject that will not be in a focus area in the final composition. Electronic Range Finder: If the connected lens has a maximum aperture of f/5.6 or faster, the camera's Electronic Range Finder can be used to confirm whether or not your subject in the selected focus point is in focus (the focus point can be selected from any of the 39 focus points). AF Assist Illuminator: The built-in AF assist illuminator enables the camera to focus even when the subject is poorly lit. The illuminator has a range of approximately 1'-8" to 9'-10". Release Modes: The release mode determines how the camera takes photographs. You can choose from the following shooting modes: Single Frame: camera takes one photograph each time the shutter-release button is pressed Continuous Low Speed: while shutter-release button is held down, the camera records at 1-5 frames per second. Continuous High Speed: while the shutter-release button is held down, the camera records up to 5.5 frames per second. Quiet Shutter-Release: during single frame shooting, noise is reduced by disabling the beeps and minimizing the sound produced when the mirror drops back into place. Self-Timer: use self-timer for self-portraits or to reduce blurring caused by camera shake; you can set the self-timer to 2, 5, 10 or 20 seconds Remote Control: shutter is controlled using the shutter-release button on the optional ML-L3 remote control Mirror Up: choose this mode to minimize camera shake in telephoto or close-up photography or in other situations in which the slightest camera movement can result in blurred photographs Interval Timer Photography: The D600 is equipped to take photographs automatically at preset intervals. Shooting will begin about 3 seconds after the interval is set or you can set a start time. You can select the number of intervals (up to 999), and the number of shots taken per interval (up to 9). Exposure Modes: The Exposure Modes determine how the camera sets shutter speed and aperture when adjusting exposure. You can choose from the following Exposure Modes. Programmed Auto (P): camera sets shutter speed and aperture for optimal exposure according to a built-in program; recommended for snapshots and other situations in which there is little time to adjust camera settings Shutter-Priority Auto (S): user chooses shutter speed while camera sets aperture for best results; use to freeze or blur motion. The shutter speed can be set from 30 to 1/4000 seconds. Aperture-Priority Auto (A): user chooses aperture while camera sets shutter speed for best results; use to blur background for portraits or bring both foreground and background into focus for landscape shots Manual (M): user controls both shutter speed and aperture for complete control over exposure User Settings: The Mode Dial has two positions, U1 and U2, for assigning frequently-used settings. Settings can be saved in the following: flexible program (mode P), shutter speed (modes S and M), aperture (modes A and M), exposure and flash compensation, flash mode, focus point, metering, autofocus and AF-area modes, bracketing, and settings in the shooting and custom settings menus. Scene Modes: When the Mode Dial is set to "Scene", you can choose a scene mode that automatically optimizes settings to suit the selected scene. You can choose from: Portrait, Landscape, Child, Sports, Close-up, Night Portrait, Night Landscape, Party/Indoor, Beach/Snow, Sunset, Dusk/Dawn, Pet Portrait, Candlelight, Blossom, Autumn Colors, Food, Silhouette, High Key, and Low Key. Long Time-Exposures: When Bulb shooting is selected, the shutter will remain open while the shutter-release button is held down. Bulb shooting is used for long time-exposure photographs of moving lights, the stars, night scenery, or fireworks. An optional tripod and optional remote cord (MC-DC2) are recommended to prevent blur. Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -5.0 to +5.0 EV in steps of 1/3 EV. Metering: The D600 utilizes through-the-lens (TTL) metering using the camera's 2,016-pixel RGB sensor. You can choose one of the following metering methods: 3D Color Matrix II: If using a type G or D lens, you can utilize 3D Color Matrix Metering II (or Color Matrix Metering II with other CPU lenses). The camera meters a wide area of the frame and sets exposure according to distribution of brightness, color, distance, and composition for natural results Center-weighted: The camera meters the entire frame but assigns greatest weight (75%) to the area in the center of the frame. The diameter of the circle can be set to 8, 15, or 20mm, or weighting can be based on the average of the entire frame. (Non-CPU lenses use a 12mm circle or average of entire frame.) Spot: The camera meters inside a 4mm diameter circle (approximately 1.5% of frame). The circle is centered on the selected focus area, making it possible to meter off-center subjects. Multiple Exposure: This feature records a series of two or three exposures in a single photograph. Multiple exposures can be recorded at any image quality setting, and produce results with colors noticeably better than photographs combined in an imaging application because they make use of RAW data from the camera image sensor. White Balance: White balance ensures that colors are unaffected by the color of the light source. You can choose one of the following white balance options: Auto: Choose from Auto, Normal, or Keep Warm Lighting Colors Incandescent Fluorescent: Choose from Sodium-Vapor lamps, Warm-White Fluorescent, White Fluorescent, Cool-White Fluorescent, Day White Fluorescent, Daylight Fluorescent, and High-temperature Mercury Vapor Direct Sunlight Flash Cloudy Shade Color Temperature: Choose a color temperature from a list of values (2500K-10000K) Preset Manual: manually set the white balance using the subject, light source, or existing photograph in the memory card as reference Bracketing (P, S, A, & M modes): Bracketing automatically varies exposure, flash level, Active D-Lighting (ADL), or white balance slightly with each shot, "bracketing" the current value. You can set the increment used and the number of shots. Bracketing can be combined with continuous shooting or the self timer modes. ISO Sensitivity: ISO Sensitivity is the digital equivalent of film speed. You can set the ISO Sensitivity to Auto or Manual. You can manually select settings of ISO 100 to ISO 6400 in steps of 1/3 EV or 1/2 EV. For special occasions, expanded settings of Lo 0.3 (equivalent to ISO 80), Lo 1 (50), Hi 0.3 (8000) and Hi 2 (25600) are available. Preset Picture Controls: The camera offers six preset Nikon Picture Controls. You can choose a Picture Control according to the subject or type of scene: Standard: standard processing for balanced results; recommended for most situations Neutral: minimal processing for natural results; recommended for photographs that will later be extensively processed or retouched Vivid: pictures are enhanced for a vivid, photo-print effect; recommended for photos that emphasize primary colors Monochrome: takes monochrome photographs Portrait: process portrait for skin with natural texture and a rounded feel Landscape: produces vibrant landscapes and cityscapes Picture Control Settings: The Preset Picture Controls listed above can be modified to suit a particular scene or your creative content. The following manual adjustments can be made: Quick Adjust: allows you to reduce or exaggerate the effect of the selected Picture Control Preset from -2 to +2 Sharpening: controls the sharpness of outlines from 0 to 9; you can also select Auto which adjust the sharpness automatically according to the scene Contrast: adjust contrast automatically according to the type of scene or chose from values between -3 to +3 to increase or decrease the contrast of your subject Brightness: reduce or enhanced brightness level from -1 to +1; this does not affect exposure Saturation (for non-monochrome): automatically adjust saturation according to the type of scene or choose from values between -3 to +3 to lower or increase your subject's saturation Hue (for non-monochrome): adjust your subject's hue from -3 to +3 to change the level of Hue Filter Effects (for monochrome): simulate the effect of color filters on monochrome photographs from yellow, orange, red, green or off Toning (for monochrome): choose the tint used in monochrome photographs from B&W, Sepia, Cyanotype, Red, Yellow, Green, Blue Green, Blue, Purple Blue, or Red Purple. Color Space: The color space determines the gamut of colors available for color reproduction. You can select either sRGB for photos that will be printed or used "as is" with no further modification, or Adobe RGB for images that will be extensively processed or retouched after leaving the camera. Active D-Lighting: Active D-Lighting preserves details in highlights and shadows, creating photographs with natural contrast. Active D-Lighting offers the following application strength levels: Auto, Low, Normal, High, Extra High and Off. Built-In Speedlight: The D600 has a pop-up flash that provides coverage for the angle of view of a 24mm lens (or 16mm lens in DX format). The available flash modes vary with the shooting mode. The following flash modes are supported: Auto Flash: When lighting is poor or subject is backlit, the flash pops up automatically when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, and fires as required. Red-Eye Reduction: The red-eye reduction lamp lights for approximately one second before the flash fires to reduce the red-eye effect. Slow Sync: Flash is combined with shutter speeds as slow as 30 seconds to capture both subject and background at night or under dim light. (Tripod recommended) Rear-Curtain Sync: The flash fires just before the shutter closes, creating effect of stream of light following moving subjects. In programmed auto and aperture-priority auto, slow rear-curtain sync is used to capture both subject and background. (Tripod recommended) Flash Compensation: Flash compensation is used to alter flash output from -3 EV to +1EV in increments of 1/3 EV to change the brightness of the main subject relative to the background. Flash output can be increased to make the main subject appear brighter or reduced to prevent unwanted highlights or reflections. FV Lock: This feature is used to lock the flash output, allowing photographs to be recomposed without changing the flash level and ensuring that the flash output is appropriate to the subject even when the subject is not positioned in the center of the frame. The Flash output is adjusted automatically for any changes in ISO sensitivity and aperture. Included Lens Lens Overview: The AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm, f/3.5-4.5G ED VR is a wide angle-to-medium telephoto zoom lens, optimized for use with FX-format Nikon digital SLR cameras. Construction: The Extra-low Dispersion (ED) element and three aspherical lenses control chromatic aberrations while enhancing sharpness and contrast even at the widest aperture settings. Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC): SIC offers superior color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare. Built-in CPU: The lens has a built-in CPU which allows it to communicate with the camera body for focus and exposure functions. A set of CPU contacts is located on the lens mount for interfacing with the camera body. Auto Focus: Nikon's Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables ultra-high-speed autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and super-quiet operation. The manual/auto focus mode switch allows quick response to situations requiring manual focus operation. Zoom Control: The lens features a large, textured manual zoom ring for easy zooming control. Vibration Reduction (VR II): Vibration reduction minimizes the effects of camera shake allowing you to shoot handheld at as many as 4 shutter speed stops slower than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images. VR II also includes tripod detection, which automatically recognizes when the camera is mounted to a tripod, and delivers a specialized VR correction that is ideal for HD video recording. You can turn vibration reduction on or off with the switch on the side of the lens. Aperture: Because there is no aperture ring on this lens, the aperture must be set on the camera. Diaphragm: The lens is equipped with a fully-automatic, 7-blade diaphragm that produces a nearly circular aperture. Out-of-focus images in front of or behind the subject are rendered as pleasing blurs. Lens Hood: The lens includes the HB-63 lens hood to protect the lens and block stray light that would otherwise cause flare or ghosting. The lens hood can be reversed and mounted on the lens when not in use. When installed, the lens hood adds approximately 2" to the overall length of the lens.

The announcement of the D610 is Nikons way of saying - yes we know there is a problem with the shutter assembly on the D600 and no we are not going to support those that purchased it. Do not buy this camera. Pros: Had great potential Cons: Defective shutter assembly, no support from Nikon. Was this review helpful?

Love this camera and Crutchfield was awesome to deal with!!! Pros: Camera picture quality Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Ease of Use Features Picture Quality Value 5 out of 5 Nikon D600 package Written By RR, Washington State on Monday, January 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this for my son who is in his second year, working on his bachelors of fine arts in digital photography. He moved up from the D90 (which he really liked) and is amazed at the difference in the full-frame camera. I originally purchased from Dell and had problems (way too many problems) and returned it and bought from Crutchfield. Faster shipping, MUCH better customer service, AND a better price overall. This is a camera that will last through college and into career. It has only been a month so the review is a bit scarce, but if the opportunity presents itself, in 6 months I would like to update. Pros: Full frame, more focus points, more options Cons: older lenses not made for full frame will crop. Not a big deal as the photographer should know their gear, but worth mentioning. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Ease of Use Features Picture Quality Value 4 out of 5 Great camera! Written By Sal, Bayville, NY on Saturday, January 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great pictures, low noise at high ISOs. I moved up from a Nikon D80 so this a huge improvement in picture quality for me. Pictures are very clear. Movie mode works very well, you can even capture any frame and save it as a photo. Unfortunately, my camera came with a problem: the autofocus did not work, except in Live View (many features though do not work with Live View). For that matter, the flash did not work well, either, blasting at full strength; I am guessing that this is related to the lack of focus (camera-to-subject distance); however, the noise was so low at low light that I was able to get by without the flash for most shots. I was stuck with this situation for two weeks as I had to leave overseas on vacation, but the pictures I took were absolutely awesome. The camera has great features, such as bracketing, HDR, and multi-exposure. Once I get a replacement camera I will be able to fully test this camera. Pros: Picture quality, largely intuitive for Nikon users, low-noise, HDR Cons: Auto Focus does not work out of the box, along with dysfuntional flash. Almost ruined my vacation until I discovered that Auto Focus works with Live View. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Pros: a great cheap full frame camera, better than those dx cameras. Cons: you cannot change the aperture while shooting video, the grip is not exactly fit on my hands, the grip is a little small. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Ease of Use Features Picture Quality Value 5 out of 5 A Must Have Written By Kenneth, Silsbee, TX on Friday, September 28, 2012 I Love This Camera, NO DOUGHT ABOUT IT! But I do not recomend it for for Beginners if you moving from point and shoot. I would recomend a lower end camera such as D3200, D90, D5100 and so on, cause this is a somewhat complicated Camera to use as there many more Menu items to go thru then lower Caliber Cameras. I myself started on a Canon AE-1 20 plus years ago and have slowly worked my way up, have had Nikon D40, D60, D90, Pentax ist DL, Canon Rebel XSI and so on. and all those were APS-C Sensor or Crop Sensor, and the D600 is my 1st Full Frame or 35mm Frame in many years, and I looking forward to many years with it. Pros: Not to Heavy, Better Grip then D7000, which I thought was to small for a Prosumer Camera 5 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

As soon as it became clear on election night that Prop. L had passed, I wondered if opponents would organize some sort of mass sit-down or sleep-in as a response. Today, it appears that some San Franciscans are orchestrating just that. I've been alerted via Facebook to two different sidewalk sits in response to the passage of Prop. L. Read more »
Sipping an egg cream soda is an all-American, very New York pastime, but nowadays the nostalgic sodas are popping up in increasing numbers in our fair city. I rounded up a trifecta of perfect SF spots to get your cream on, but first a historical rundown.
Though the identity of the creator of the original egg cream is somewhat debated, many credit Louis Auster, a Brooklyn candy store owner in the late 1800s. In his well-researched tome on the history of soda fountains, Fix the Pumps, Art of the Drink's Darcy S. O'Neil says the New York egg cream evolved as a variation on the original milkshakes served at soda fountains in the late 19th century. Read more »
It might have been unannounced, but there's a ritual aspect to all this the Giants-Halloween-Dia de los Muertos mayhem all the same. And like any great autumnal rite, the cathartic frenzy implies a greater narrative -- one last big harvest before the little death of winter, the rebirth of spring. How appropriate to the season then, was the Ragged Wing production "Persephone's Roots" a site-specific re-imagining of the Persephone myth at Berkeley's Cordornices Park. Read more »
Mayor Gavin Newsom seemed to jokingly endorse Giants closer Brian Wilson for mayor at the parade Nov. 3rd (and Wilson might have endorsed his BDSM-loving neighbor), but maybe the mayor's words have been misinterpreted. Maybe he was referring to another local player when he proclaimed the words "fear the beard." Just a thought.
With four of the five Board of Supervisors races awaiting ranked-choice voting tallies, the San Francisco Department of Elections says it will run a preliminary ranked choice voting tally tomorrow (Friday) afternoon.
The department says there are still at least 52,000 ballots left to count (14,000 provisional ballots and 38,000 absentee ballots dropped off at the polls), plus an unknown number of absentee ballots still arriving by mail, so tomorrow won't be the final word on who wins. But it will give a good idea where people's second choices are going.Read more »
OK somewhere between Giants madness and the election frenzy, this happened: one of our favorite, uniquely SF civic holidays went down in the Mission. Photographer Charlie Russo was there to capture all the morbid beauty, serene remembrance, and ghoulish fun.
As Mayor Gavin Newsom prepares to leave San Francisco for the Lieutenant Governor's Office in Sacramento, he has burned enough bridges here that he's not going to have much of a role in picking his successor. But he made a play today during the Giants World Series celebration at City Hall that just may resonate with local voters and elected officials alike.Read more »

Course objectives:
Is vulnerability the same as weakness? "In our culture," teaches Dr. Brené Brown, "we associate vulnerability with emotions we want to avoid such as fear, shame, and uncertainty. Yet we too often lose sight of the fact that vulnerability is also the birthplace of joy, belonging, creativity, authenticity, and love." On The Power of Vulnerability, Dr. Brown offers an invitation and a promise—that when we dare to drop the armor that protects us from feeling vulnerable, we open ourselves to the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Here she dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and reveals that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage.
"The Power of Vulnerability is a very personal project for me," Brené explains. "This is the first place that all of my work comes together. This audio course draws from all three of my books—it's the culmination of everything I've learned over the past 12 years. I'm very excited to weave it all into a truly comprehensive form that shows what these findings and insights can mean in our lives."
Guidance and Insights for Wholehearted Living
Over the past 12 years, Dr. Brené Brown has interviewed hundreds of people as part of an ongoing study of vulnerability. "The research shows that we try to ward disappointment with a shield of cynicism, disarm shame by numbing ourselves against joy, and circumvent grief by shutting off our willingness to love," explains Dr. Brown. When we become aware of these patterns, she teaches, we begin to become conscious of how much we sacrifice in the name of self-defense—and how much richer our lives become when we open ourselves to vulnerability.
"In my research," Dr. Brown says, "the word I use to describe people who can live from a place of vulnerability is wholehearted." Being wholehearted is a practice—one that we can choose to cultivate through empathy, gratitude, and awareness of our vulnerability armor. Join this engaging and heartfelt teacher on The Power of Vulnerability as she offers profound insights on leaning into the full spectrum of emotions—so we can show up, let ourselves be seen, and truly be all in.

BMC Racing Team's Thor Hushovd has withdrawn from the Tour of Beijing to attend to a family emergency.
Satisfied With 2013 Season
Hushovd left the race Saturday night to be with his daughter who has had to be hospitalized with an undisclosed illness. The Norwegian national road champion was sitting second overall after winning Friday's Stage 1 and finishing 27th in the race's longest stage earlier Saturday. "Obviously, it is a big disappointment," he said. "Of course, I wish I could finish my season in downtown Beijing on Tuesday." Hushovd said the unexpected turn of events that brings his season to a sudden close does not overshadow a host of accomplishments which include his third national road title, a pair of stage wins and the overall at the inaugural Arctic Race of Norway in his home country, and two stages of the Tour de Pologne. "I had my ups and downs in the beginning of the year," he said. "My classics (season) was a disaster. But I had nine wins, which is quite good. So in total, I am satisfied with my season."
Listen to Thor Hushovd's complete comments (in English and Norwegian) on the BMC Racing Team Audio Line.

Entertaining a crowd is a breeze when you have a culinary trick or two up your sleeve. Or, in this case, a box full of them! One of our favorite items to have in the freezer are pre-made French pastry and tart shells. Not that we don't appreciate a great handmade pastry dough, but it can be a bit messy and time-consuming to prepare it every single time, especially if you have guests coming and a flour explosion in the kitchen is not on the agenda.

Pretty in Pastry: The Beauty Of Pre-Made Tart Shells
We love the versatility of tarts shells, how they can be a great savory appetizer, a delicious lunch, or a sweet treat for dessert or with tea. Because we stock a really great variety of ready-made gourmet pastry and tart shells (we've done half the work for you, you're welcome!), we thought we'd give you some delicious filling options to try out this weekend!
SHOP Pre-Made Pastry and Tart Shells >
So Cute You Could Eat Them Up…(and should!): Mini Raspberry & Chocolate Tarts
Our sweet selection comes from Naomi Robinson Bakersroyale.com. Guys, she made a NO BAKE dessert. We love her, just because of that! She started with pre-made tart shells, added chocolate, followed with a yummy layer of pureed raspberries, and topped it all off with decadent raspberry mousse. If you're not drooling by now, take a look at the picture below. A touch of cassis liqueur make these utter perfection!

Deliciously Good (and good for you!): Pesto and Avocado Mini Tarts
For our savory tart, we sifted through a lot of heavy, cream-filled options, but we fell in love with this super healthy recipe from TalesofaKitchen.com. As great believers of a healthy approach to gourmet eating, we loved the mixture of gourmet ingredients in a good-for-you recipe. Chris made her own tart crust (which is vegan, by the way!), but we loved the idea that you could also just whip up the pesto and avocado filling and put it in pre-made savory tart shells. You can serve these at any cocktail party, but feel good about yourself (and your diet) the next morning!

Category:General Pain Management
From Pcwiki
PC causes a unique type of chronic pain unlike that of most other syndromes. Further, PC pain is a very individual matter and varies greatly from day to day, season to season. However, as one PCer stated "we want PCers to be able to connect to the pain management community so they don't have to deal with pain in isolation." Dr. Sancy Leachman emphasized "we want any pain management to be safe, credible, well-defined and something as a group we feel comfortable referring to."
The 2007 PAB Patient Outreach Working Team noted that often "CARE = pain management" and Dr. Sancy Leachman has also noted that regular care for the feet is the very best pain management tool for PCers.
Exercise and pain management
K16 patient "Swimming makes feet sore but has never made their condition any better or worse."
??? patient "Swimming in a pool that has chlorine helps feet"
K16 patient "Try to keep fit by swimming, cycling â overall good condition probably helps manage foot pain"
Airline foot exercises
K16 patient "Pain relief. Do âairline foot exercisesâ
For examples, see United Airlines Inflight Exercises
Intense pain that comes for no specific reason
Patient Comments
K6a patient "this past fall, for no reason that I could find, my feet became incredibly painful - all the time - even when I wasn't walking. My calluses looked just fine and I had no blistering. I couldn't understand why they hurt so incredibly bad. It made me want to do nothing. For me, pain becomes as much a mental issue as it is a physical issue. My whole mentality gets wrapped up in the pain. The reason I'm telling you this is not to feel badly for me. I am no doctor, but sometimes I wonder if part of PC includes having this unexpected, unexplained pain. This wasn't the first time it's happened. I remember the first time I do remember it happening, many years ago. I went to my doctor, who knew my feet very well. He looked at my feet and said, "But they don't look bad." My doctor had seen my feet much worse and so when I made that emergency appointment because of the pain, my doctor expected to see my feet in worse shape. I felt a little badly at his comments, but also realized there was nothing he could do and that my feet for no reason that any of us could figure out just plain hurt - more than their usual PC pain. This happens to me maybe several times a year - not sure - but this last time, it lasted about a month. Something that helps me with the pain is to get circulation in my feet and my legs. This will sound so strange, but sometimes when my feet are really sore, I ride a stationary exercise bicycle. I don't have calluses on the arches of my feet so I can pedal the bike quite comfortably. For some reason, this seems to help my feet feel better. If it's in the middle of the night, I often do leg lifts, or raise my legs off the bed and bend my knees - just anything to get the blood flowing. There's a ton of leg exercises that I can do while on the floor and they all seem to help. I don't know if it's because I used crutches a lot and also a wheelchair in my home - I have a nifty electric one - but my feet can get extra sore from not using them. Which is difficult since, well, our feet hurt! It's hard because when I'm hurting really badly, I often want to just lie down and not move. And that's true that sometimes rest is the only help. But getting the circulation going has been a big help for me."
??? patient "I too get the sudden un-explained bouts of pain especially with my feet. even when i havent been walking about or putting my feet under stress. i still get really bad pain associated with the pressure point in my feet. Prof E O'toole has just started me on a treatment of local anaesthetic (Linocaine 2% gel under a hydrocolloid plaster) this has done wonders to take the pain away but i would advise not using over the entire foot as this can cause balancing problems caused by the loss of sensation in the foot. and we need a level of sensation to actually know where and on what our feet are walking."
K16 patient "I find the only thing that works for me is not to walk, or walk very little for a few weeks, it seems that even if I've not been on a 'long walk' sometimes I think you can over do it over the course of a few weeks or months and it eventually catches up with you. To me it seems that I am doing unseen damage below the surface of the skin and that's got to come out sooner or later. Also tension or stress makes pain worse for me so a few relaxation treats help too. "
K6a patient "I use Tiger Balm (full strength Thai mixture) and remember rub it into ankles so it feeds the whole foot"
K16 patient "Sometimes for nor reasons i have a big pain. I have to Hydrate my skin. First step, i put my feet directly in very cold water, immediately, the pain go away for 80% at least, but it come back a little back after some moment. After I put some "Vaseline" ( a grease cream : dont know the real name all over the world but in France that's it) all over the feet to hydrate it. And I do not put any sock or shoe for a moment. and take some drugs, in France its some paracetamol or around like this. I hate to hear that someone have lot of pain and do not know why. If i walk and i have pain, I know why at least."
K6a patient "I manage most of my pain w/ over-the-counter pain relievers...like acetominophen (Tylenol) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (like ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin). I know that not everyone is keen on taking pills, though. It's my understanding that it's physiologically easier to PREVENT pain than to GET RID OF pain, so I typically take them before doing excessive walking...or if I'm not having a good week, I'll take them first thing in the morning. The anti-inflammatories are especially helpful when there's actually blistering...seem to make the areas less "angry" (red, hot, painful)."
K6a patient "Yes, sometimes for no cleared reason for me, my feet get in deep pain.
The only thing that really helps is to avoid walking for a few days. During this period I will give time to my feet to relax, in order to close the open sores, and in general get access to drain the blisters. In my case, I have already registered some facts, besides walking too much, which makes my feet worst:
- Specific foods: too much spice, chocolate, industrialized food, etc.(everything that brings pain cists to my body, will bring blisters to my feet)
- Stress; few hours of sleeping.
- Dry weather (since I live in a warm country, my feet is used to warm weather, and it will go really bad if I move to a dry weather)"
K6a patient "The best treatment I have experienced to reduce pain for blisters and calluses are: BLISTERS (appear on every travel, christmas period which coincides with summer in chile, etc)
- 1-Puncture the blister with a needle and thread. Leave the thread to allow draining for hours.
- 2-Soak the feet in a solution with permanganate of potassium. Will leave the skin black (If you don't want to have your feet black, you can replace the permanganate with marine salt and you should repeat the soaking for several days.), specially the blisters, but will help to dry them in one day. (one time is enough)
- 3-On the blister apply celullase with mesmicin to prevent infection and help regimarating the skin.
CALLUSES Go to a podologist. In Chile they study only for one year and I always thought it was normal to leave their office with a lot of pain because they trimmed to much. Now, I found a podologist who studied in Argentina, where they obtain a university degree. You can feel the difference. What he does is to put a soften liquid, then with a bisturi cut a part and then uses an electric disecator which burns the root of the callus and remove the callus with the bisturi with only one cut. He has an assistant who hold the leg still. He repeats the procedure for every callus. At the end of the session we finish all tired but with no pain on my feet. He always give me the last hour because he must have all the required time to do his job slowly and also because he says the need to rest after working on my feet. I am now using a cream that helps me a lot: Laboratiner vichy - podexine - podiatric care - reconditioning care for dry feet - restructuring ceramides"
K6a patient "Anti inflammatories or enzyme inhibitors such as Vioxx or Celebrex. Takes one each night before going to bed. Cannot function without them."
K6a patient "An anti-inflammatory medicine that helped his feet for long walks and every day use of feet. Worked extremely well."
TENS Machine
From Wikipedia "Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, more commonly referred to as a "TENS" is defined by the American Physical Therapy Association as application of electrical current through the skin for pain control (APTA, 1990). The unit is usually connected to the skin using two or more electrodes. A typical battery-operated TENS unit is able to modulate pulse width, frequency and intensity. Generally TENS is applied at high frequency (>50 Hz) with an intensity below motor contraction (sensory intensity) or low frequency (<10 Hz) with an intensity that produces motor contration (Robinson and Snyder-Mackler, 2008).
TENS is a non-invasive, safe method to reduce pain, both acute and chronic. treatment of pain. While controversy exists as to its effectiveness in the treatment of chronic pain, a number of systematic reviews or meta-analysis have confirmed its effectiveness for postoperative pain, osteoarthritis, and chronic musculoskeletal pain ([1]. Recent clinical studies and meta-analysis suggest that using adequate intensity of stimulation is necessary to obtain analgesia with TENS (Bjordal et al., 2003; Rakel and Franz, 2003)."
Patient comments
K6a patient "Good old mum borrowed a TENS machine for me to use and have had a go this week with it unfortunately I didn't think it was that good, but perhaps I had the wrong mindset as I thought it was going to take away all my pain plus I have a particularly painful foot at the mo as its infected badly. My mum borrowed it for me as it was mentioned at this years PC conference. It was mentioned that some people with PC use or have used them so that is where we got the idea from."
K16 patient "I've tried a TENS machine, but wasn't sure where to place the pads so asked at the PSM... think the ankle was the best place. Didn't get much joy from it before so maybe was not using it properly."
K6a patient "ankle now that is interesting as I had it around my waste. mmm dont think it has a long enough cable for the ankle will try"
