Overview Reviews Details Accessories Staff Reviews Articles & Videos by Woody Sherman DSLR features in a pocket-sized package It's not often possible to be all things to all people, but Sony keeps pushing the envelope with its innovative NEX hybrid cameras. This latest iteration, the Sony Alpha NEXC3A, has managed to shrink the body size from that of its predecessor, while increasing the pixel count and sensitivity at the same time. The NEX cameras made a big splash when they first appeared on the scene, and for good reason: they give you a large, pixel-dense APS-C sensor, the added benefit of interchangeable lenses, and a form factor that fits neatly into a pocket. Consequently, this little dynamo gives you the tools for clean, vibrant images and video, even in subdued light. Something to hold on to Thoughtful touches that enhance the user experience are evident everywhere. The right hand grip is subtly textured to improve hand-held work. The generous 3" LCD display on the back tilts up or down so that you can explore a variety of angles (and avoid glare on sunny days). The supplied flash is detachable to keep things streamlined when you're working in well-lit environments. And the controls are sensibly placed and easy to decipher. Low profile, wide angle The 16mm lens (24mm equivalent) on the front of this camera gives an expansive, wide view, and is perfect for landscapes or group shots on family vacation. It's also ideal for real-estate photography, where it's always desirable to show as much of a room as possible, or get the whole house into the frame without having to cross the highway. At its maximum aperture of f/2.8, this lens has the light-gathering ability to work well indoors or at night. Its "pancake" size makes the camera even more portable. You'll need to pick up an SD card or Memory Stick PRO Duo as this camera has no internal memory and does not come with any included media. Don't forget to explore other available lenses like the 18-55mm SEL lens. You'll make an incredibly useful camera even more so.

Try a mirrorless camera. These digital cameras combine the creative options of a DSLR with portability that's more like that of a point-and-shoot. Their automatic modes will help you take striking pictures from day one without having to be an expert. However, like DSLRs, mirrorless cameras have interchangeable lenses, and advanced control and processing. You can explore these features for even better results as you take time to learn more about the hobby. Cameras in this class have large image sensors for beautifully detailed pictures, but their mirrorless design means the camera bodies and matching lenses can be smaller, lighter, and more portable great for snapping memorable pics when you're on the move.

Light...small...16M...easy to use. Was this review helpful? Yes No Returned the C3 , bought the 5n Written By Zeegee, Upstate NY on Saturday, March 03, 2012 WOW...However I returned the C3 and purchased the NEX 5n for three reasons. 1. The grip and body covering on the C3 screams " bet you can't hold on to me ..I am VERY slippery" 2. The shutter on the C3 is very loud as compared to the 5n electronic first shutter curtain design. 3 Shutter release button on the 5n is placed so that the trigger finger naturally engages it . Pros: Ergonomics , size & weight , image quality , quiet shutter , use of legacy lenses Cons: Sony needs more E mount prime lenses 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

You cannot set Steady Shot when the included 16mm F2.8 E-mount lens or an A-mount lens is attached. 25-Point AF System: The NEX-C3's high-performance auto focus system uses 25 focus points to deliver fast and precise focusing. You can choose from the following Auto/Manual Focus Modes: AF/MF Select: You can choose from these three focusing methods: Auto Focus: The camera focuses automatically. Direct Manual Focus: After focusing automatically, you can make fine adjustments to the focus by turning the focusing ring. Manual Focus: You can adjust the focus manually by turning the focusing ring. AF (Auto focus) Mode: You can select between 2 modes: Single-Shot AF: The camera focuses and the focus is locked when you press the shutter button halfway down. Continuous AF: The camera continues to focus while the shutter button is pressed and held halfway down. AF (Auto focus) Area: You can select between 3 settings: Multi: The camera determines which of the 25 AF areas is used in focusing. When Face Detection is active, AF operates with priority on faces. Center: The camera uses the AF area located in the center area exclusively. Flexible Spot: You can choose a focus area from the 25 areas using the controller. Focus Lock: If a subject is off-center and outside of the AF area, you can lock the focus of the camera. AF Illuminator: When you press the shutter button halfway down a red illuminator is emitted until the focus is locked. Under dark lighting conditions or when you shoot a low contrast subject, the AF illuminator allows the camera to focus more easily on the subject. Drive Modes: The camera offers the following shooting modes: Single Shot Advance: Default setting for standard picture taking--shoots one still image. Shooting Continuously: When you press and hold the shutter button, the camera records the images continuously at a maximum 2.5 images per second. Speed Priority Continuous: When you press and hold the shutter button, the camera records the images continuously at a maximum 5.5 images per second. Self-Timer: You can set the camera to two different self-timers: 10 Second: After you press the shutter button, the shutter will be released about 10 seconds later. This is convenient when the photographer wants to appear in a photo. 2 Second: After you press the shutter button, the shutter will be released about 2 seconds later. This is convenient to reduce camera-shake. Self-timer Continuous: After you press the shutter button, the camera will continuously take 3 or 5 images after a 10-second pause. Exposure Bracket: The camera can shoot three continuous images with the exposures shifted automatically. This setting shoots images continuously with exposure value shifted by plus or minus 0.3 EV or 0.7 EV. Exposure Modes: The camera offers the following exposure modes: Intelligent Auto: The camera analyses the subject, and allows you to shoot with appropriate settings. It recognizes and automatically switches to Night View, Tripod Night View, Night Portrait, Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Portrait, Landscape, or Macro. Scene Selection: You can select an appropriate mode for the subject or the shooting conditions to allow you to shoot the image with a suitable setting for the subject: Portrait: blurs away backgrounds and sharpens the subject; expresses skin tones softly Landscape: shoots the entire range of scenery in sharp focus with vivid colors. Macro: for shooting close subjects such as flowers, insects, dishes, or small goods. Sports Action: for shooting moving subjects outdoors or in bright places. Sunset: for shooting the red of the sunset beautifully Night Portrait: for shooting portraits in night scenes. You should attach and use the supplied flash. Night Scene: for shooting night scenes without losing the dark atmosphere. Hand-held Twilight: for shooting night scenes with less noise and blur without using a tripod. A burst of shots are taken, and image processing is applied to reduce subject blur, camera shake, and noise. Anti Motion Blur: This mode is suitable for indoor shots without using the flash, to reduce subject blur. The camera combines six shots at high sensitivity into one still image. Sweep Panorama/3D Sweep Panorama: You can create a panoramic image from composed images. To shoot, pan the camera horizontally or vertically while holding down the shutter button. You can select from the following modes of panorama shooting: Sweep Panorama: Standard: Vertical--3872 x 2160; Horizontal--8192 x 1856 Wide: Vertical--5536 x 2160; Horizontal 12416 x 1856 3D Sweep Panorama: 16:9: Horizontal--1920 x 1080 Standard: Horizontal--4912 x 1080 Wide: Horizontal--7152 x 1080 Program Auto: This mode allows you to shoot with the exposure adjusted automatically (both the shutter speed and the aperture value), while keeping the custom settings for ISO sensitivity, Creative Style, D-Range optimizer, etc. Aperture Priority: This mode allows you to shoot after adjusting the aperture value manually, letting the camera set the appropriate shutter speed. This mode gives you greater control over the depth of field. Shutter Priority: This mode allows you to shoot after adjusting the shutter speed manually, letting the camera set the appropriate aperture. With a high shutter speed, the moving subject appears as if it is frozen on the image. With a slow shutter speed, the moving subject appears as if it were flowing. Manual Exposure: This mode allows you to shoot after adjusting the exposure (shutter speed and aperture) manually. Bulb (Long Exposure) Shooting: In this setting as long as the shutter button is pressed, the shutter remains open. You can shoot trails of light, such as fireworks. Exposure Compensation: Exposure compensation is used to alter the camera's standard exposure setting. You can make the image look lighter (increased exposure) or darker (decreased exposure). The exposure compensation amount can be set up to +/-3 EV in 1/3-step increments. AE Lock: You can fix the exposure before deciding on the composition when taking a picture. This is effective when the metering object and focusing object are different or when you want to shoot continuously while keep the same exposure value. Face Detection: When activated, the camera detects the faces of your subjects and adjusts the focus, flash exposure, and white balance settings automatically. You can also select the priority face to be focused on, or register the faces on which to automatically focus upon. Metering Mode: An advanced 1200-zone evaluative sensing system provides multi-pattern measuring for superior exposure control accuracy in a wide range of lighting conditions. You can select the method for measuring the brightness of a subject from the following three methods: Multi Pattern: This method uses the whole screen divided into multiple areas to determine the proper exposure of the entire screen. Center Weighted: While emphasizing the central area of the screen, this method measures the average brightness of the entire screen. Spot: This method measures light only in the spot metering circle in the center of the frame. White Balance: You can adjust the color tones according to the lighting conditions. You can choose from the following WB options: Auto WB: This mode adjusts the white balance automatically. Daylight: This mode adjusts for outdoors and sunlit subjects. Shade: This mode adjust for shady conditions on a clear day. Cloudy: This mode adjust for a cloudy sky. Incandescent: This mode adjusts for incandescent lighting. Fluorescent: This mode adjusts for fluorescent lighting Flash: This mode adjusts for flash conditions. Color Temperature: This mode adjusts the white balance depending upon the light source (color temperature). It achieves the effect of color compensation (CC) filters for photography. Custom: In a scene where the ambient light consists of multiple types of light sources, use of the custom white balance is recommended in order to accurately reproduce the whiteness. Creative Style: This camera is pre-programmed with image styles optimal for various scenes and purposes. For each setting, you can adjust the contrast, saturation, and sharpness. You can choose from the following settings: Standard: This setting reproduces various scenes with rich gradation and beautiful color. Vivid: This setting reproduces memorable scenery such as blue sky, sunsets, spring greenery, and autumn leaves with deep and vivid colors. Portrait: This setting accentuates the subject and softly reproduces skin tones. Landscape: This setting reproduces the scenery with vivid and sharp colors. Sunset: This setting beautifully reproduces the red of the sunset. B & W: This setting is for monochrome images. ISO Settings: ISO is a unit of measurement of sensitivity to light. The larger the number, the higher the sensitivity. The camera's ISO can be set manually or automatically at ISO 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400, or 12800. Flash: In a dark location, using the supplied HVL-F7S flash allows you to shoot the subject brightly, and it also helps prevent blurred photos due to camera shake. The NEX-C3 features a special multi-pin jack for attaching the flash. When attached, you can turn the flash on or off by raising or lowering the flash head. When the flash is attached, it adds approximately 1/2" to the overall height of the camera, and adds 1-1/4" when raised. The NEX-C3 offers the following flash modes: Autoflash: In auto mode the flash automatically fires if it is dark or against light. Fill-Flash: In this mode the flash fires every time the shutter is released. Slow Sync: Slow sync shooting allows you to shoot a clear image of both the subject and the background by slowing the shutter speed. Rear Sync: In rear sync mode, the objects illuminated by other light sources are captured first, then the flash is fired right before the exposure is completed. Flash Off: The flash does not fire, even if the flash is raised. Noise Reduction: The camera offers Long Exposure and High ISO Noise Reduction (NR) to automatically reduce the grainy noise found in photos during long exposures or high ISO settings. Included Lens Optics: The Sony E 16mm F2.8 lens is compatible with the Sony α NEX-series interchangeable lens cameras. The lens has a 35mm equivalent focal length of 24mm, and an 83° field of view for excellent low-light performance. It also has a smooth and quiet Auto Focus operation.

ETSU Baseball's Caleb Moore among NCAA leaders
Tuesday, April 27, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Apr. 27, 2004) - East Tennessee State junior catcher Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.) is among the top-10 in two different categories in the NCAA Division I statistics, released Tuesday. Moore is fourth among all Division I hitters with a .460 batting average, just 14 points behind third baseman Ed Lucas of Dartmouth, who leads the nation at .474. Caleb is tied for sixth with .51 doubles per game, having hit 19 in 37 games this season. Vanderbilt outfielder Warner Jones leads the nation with .58 doubles per game after hitting 23 in 40 games. Moore leads the Southern Conference in both categories. Caleb is in the midst of a torrid streak the plate, hitting .667 (16-24) in his last five games. During that streak, he has hit nine doubles while driving in five runs and scoring seven others. The Bucs return to action this evening at 7 p.m. in the Kingsport Classic against Virginia Tech from Hunter Wright Stadium. ETSU then hosts Southern Conference rival The Citadel in a three-game weekend series from Cardinal Park in Johnson City.

About Me Classic Dresser
Comments about 7 For All Mankind Roxanne Original Skinny in New Rinse:
This new version of the Roxanne is way too stretchy. There is no support and the material stretches too easily. I loved the old Roxannes and owned probably 10 pairs in the past several years. Really disappointed in these new Roxannes. I have to find another brand of skinny jeans to buy!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: The fabric for this particular style is extremely stretchy so we do suggest to size down. Perhaps a different wash/fabric would be a better option.

too much stretch
By no name
from calgary
i have had Roxannes in the past and much preferred the older ones.I have had the new ones for two weeks, washed them once and did not put them in the dryer and they have already stretched out.On the positive side they are extremely comfortable and i live the dark denim but i would not buy them again as the fit is not good.
Love this fit!
By Anne
from Charleston, SC
Love the Roxanne. It has changed over the last couple years. It is a tighter fit, more like a legging...except for the pant legs. Loved the older version and the newer fit as well. Only thing is I had the legs tailored to fit like a tighter skinny beause I much prefer the fit of the Roxanne over the fit of the other skinny jeans!!

I love these pants. They are the most comfortable jeans i ever bought. The color is dark and classic. They are very flattering. I am 120 pounds and i always wear 24 size in skinny jeans and these fit perfectly. They have a good stretch even though they look small.

Not the same as old Roxanne's
By She422
from NY NY
The old 7 Roxanne mercer jeans were my favorite and I owned at least 10 pairs over the last 6 years. 7 has changed their jeans to be softer and have more stretch, which I find unflattering. I want my jeans to look tailored and support my body.

What is an abandoned vehicle?Vehicles are considered abandoned when they are left for twenty-four hours or longer within the limits of a highway, on property open to the public, or on private property without the property owner's consent. This definition excludes instances when an owner or operator cannot remove a vehicle and has notified a law enforcement agency and requested assistance. Some examples of abandoned vehicles include unauthorized vehicles that have been left on:
How do I get a title to an abandoned vehicle that is not being sold by a law enforcement agency or an authorized* tow company?
Contact the last titled owner and ask them to provide and assign the title to you. If any liens are shown on the previous title, they must be released by the lienholder. If you purchase the vehicle from the titled owner, be sure to get a dated bill of sale for sales tax purposes. The bill of sale must contain the following information:
* "Authorized" tow company means any tow company that (1) has towed the vehicle off of posted real property, or (2) has received authorization from a law enforcement agency to dispose of an abandoned vehicle that was towed under their direction.
How do I find out who is the last titled owner of a vehicle?For vehicles licensed and titled in Idaho, obtain the vehicle's identification number (VIN), usually located on the driver's door striker post or on the dash, and request a title record from your county DMV office. To do so, you must claim an exemption under the Driver Privacy Protection Act to qualify to receive this personal information. Many people in similar situations claim the Public Safety/Vehicle Operation exemption, but the responsibility for this decision is yours. The record will list the name and address of the last titled owner. The fee for this service is $7.00.
If the vehicle has a license plate from another state, you must contact that state's DMV office for owner information. To obtain the address and phone number for another state's DMV, contact your local county DMV office or the Idaho Transportation Department's (ITD) Vehicle Services Section at (208) 334-8663.
What if the previous owner has lost the title?The owner of record may apply for a duplicate title at any county DMV office. If the owner does not wish to take the time to apply for the title personally, ask him or her to sign a power of attorney form and have it notarized. This form will authorize you to sign a duplicate application and all necessary title documents on the owner's behalf. Blank power of attorney forms are available at any county DMV office, or can be downloaded from (dmv.idaho.gov).
What if the last titled owner refuses to provide me with a title?In this case, if the vehicle has been abandoned on your property, you may want to contact the small claims court to see if it is feasible to bring action against the owner for storage charges. This may be possible if the charges due are under $4,000. Check to see if the small claims court in your county will award judgments for vehicles. If they do and the value of the vehicle is under $4,000, attempt to obtain a judgment awarding you the vehicle. If not, you may try to get a monetary judgment.
If you bring legal action against the owner and are awarded a monetary judgment, you should request that the defendant (owner) pay the judgment. If it is too late to appeal the judgment and the defendant refuses to pay, contact the court clerk about obtaining a writ of execution. Forward the writ of execution to the Sheriff's office along with a copy of the DMV record and a letter from you informing the Sheriff that this vehicle is available to be seized.
The sheriff may then seize the vehicle and perform a sale to satisfy the judgment. You may enter a credit bid at the sale if you wish to gain title to the vehicle. If the vehicle is sold to someone else, the proceeds of the sale will be paid to you up to the amount of your judgment.
What if I can't locate the last titled owner or the last owner is unknown?If the vehicle was left on your property, you may wish to contact an attorney to file action in court. The attorney will let you know if you can attempt to quiet title (file court action to obtain judgment awarding the vehicle to you).
If someone other than a law enforcement agency or an authorized tow company is selling an abandoned vehicle, what documents must the seller provide?The seller must provide a title issued in the seller's name that has been signed over to you and a bill of sale for sales tax purposes. If the seller cannot provide you with a title in the seller's name, do not purchase the vehicle.
If I purchase a vehicle from a law enforcement agency or authorized tow company at an abandoned vehicle sale, what must I do to get a title in my name?If a law enforcement agency is conducting the sale, that agency should provide you with:
Who do I contact to have a vehicle removed from my property?Who you contact depends on whether or not your property is properly posted. You have proper posting if you have a sign or notice that:
If your property is not posted as described, you should contact your local law enforcement agency and report the vehicle as abandoned. If the vehicle is within city limits, contact the city police department, otherwise contact your local county sheriff's office.
Law enforcement should send an officer to tag the vehicle, and will attempt to contact the vehicle owner by telephone. If the vehicle has not been removed within 48 hours, the agency should instruct a tow company to remove the vehicle.
Do I always have to wait 48 hours to have a vehicle removed if my property is not posted?No. A law enforcement agency may immediately have a vehicle towed if it is blocking your driveway or is substantially interfering with the use and enjoyment of your property. Do not call a tow company yourself. If you do, you could be required to pay the towing and storage charges.
Are there any other circumstances where a vehicle can be towed immediately?Yes. Law enforcement agencies may have a vehicle towed in any situation where the vehicle:
If I purchase a vehicle at a sheriff's sale or an impounded vehicle sale, what must I do to get a title in my name?Take the following documents to your county DMV office:
POSSESSORY or MECHANIC'S LIENS
How do I get title to a vehicle that was left in my repair shop or storage facility, or was left in my tow yard following an owner requested tow?First, try to contact the last titled owner to have the title assigned to you. If any liens are shown on the previous title, they must be released by the lienholder or every subsequent title will carry the lien forward. Also be sure to get a bill of sale from the owner.
What if I cannot find the last titled owner, or he is unwilling to assign the title to me?You may still proceed with a lien sale under Section 45-805, Idaho Code, if:
When someone buys a vehicle at my lien sale, what paperwork does the buyer need from me to apply for title to the vehicle?
What if I, as the possessory lienholder, want title to the vehicle that is being sold at a lien sale?To obtain ownership of the vehicle, you must be the highest bidder at the lien sale. You must apply for title with the same documents you would have given to a buyer at the lien sale.
Is there another lien sale procedure that I may use to sell a vehicle?Yes. You may apply for a lien sale under Title 49, Chapter 17, Idaho Code, if you have a dated work order that:
If I have a signed work order or storage agreement meeting the above requirements, how do I apply for a lien sale?You must request and complete an application for authorization to conduct a lien sale and pay the $10.00 fee. The application form ITD-3750 can be obtained by contacting:
Idaho Transportation Department
Vehicle Services
P.O. Box 7129
Boise, ID 83707-1129
Phone: (208) 334-8663
What happens after I send in my fee and application for authorization to conduct a lien sale?The Idaho Transportation Department will send notice of your application for authorization to conduct a lien sale to any registered/titled owner(s) of record, lienholder(s) of record, and any other interested parties. These parties will have ten days to file a declaration of opposition. If the department does not receive a declaration of opposition within the given time, you will be sent a letter authorizing you to conduct a lien sale and explaining the next steps you will need to take. If a declaration of opposition is received within the ten days, you will be advised that you cannot conduct a lien sale unless you receive a judgment in court or obtain a release from the registered/titled owner of record and any lienholders.
What must I do after I receive an authorization to conduct a lien sale?If the authorization form indicates there is a lien recorded on the current title record, you should contact the lienholder to obtain a lien release. If the lien is still in effect, you may need to negotiate with the lienholder for a release.
Once you have obtained the release, you should determine your sale date. Then, you must provide twenty days notice of sale by certified mail to all registered/titled owners of record and lienholders of record, and to any other interested parties that may have been listed on your application to conduct a lien sale.
You will also be required to advertise once, ten days in advance, in the legal section of a newspaper published in the county where the vehicle is located. You must also make the vehicle available for public inspection at least one hour prior to the sale in a location easily accessible to the public. If the vehicle is not claimed prior to sale time, you may sell the vehicle in a commercially reasonable manner (sealed bids are not acceptable).
Title document requirements are the same as for the other lien sale procedures, except you must also submit the authorization from the Idaho Transportation Department to conduct the lien sale (form ITD-3753).
What if I am unable to get a lien release from any lienholder of record?A lien release is not required if:
WARNING:If the recorded lien is LESS than ten years old or if you have obtained information showing that the lien is still active, you should NOT proceed with the lien sale until you are able to obtain a lien release.

World Archaeological Congress Publications Task Force Report, 1 December 2003
Members: George Okello Abungu, Cristobal Gnecco, Cornelius Holtorf, Alejandra Korstanje, Arkadiusz Marciniak, Naoko Matsuomo, Sven Ouzman, Joe Watkins, H. Martin Wobst, Larry J. Zimmerman (Chair)
Claire Smith charged the Publications Task Force to make recommendations for her to provide to the WAC Executive so that a WAC publications policy can be developed. The task force has had about two months to deliberate on the matter, which proved to be problematic at best. E-mail is not conducive to on-going discussion, and most members feel it deserves more. Hence, we feel that the Executive must find a way to ensure that discussion about WAC publications is on-going. WAC members generally agreed that due to the complexity of issues and differing opinions, the Executive should see all the significant e-mail from out discussions. Thus, as an appendix, all the e-mail is included, with only personal references and irrelevant material deleted.
After basic discussion, Zimmerman provided a draft report, which prompted further discussion. From that, six major points were extracted. These are presented as a report, with major matters of remaining discussion or disagreement added in parentheses and italics. The latter are summarized from e-mails, so Executive members are urged to look at the e-mails to get a more complete understanding of the issues.
Major issues that should guide WAC publications
1. WAC's publications must be of the highest possible quality. The mechanisms to achieve this can be variable and multiple, from peer review (not necessarily anonymous) to selection of strong editorial teams and individuals. [One member feels that this statement is obvious or trivial, that no one would wish to produce poor publications {Holtorf}; another {Zimmerman} feels that it reaffirms WAC's commitment to quality and also suggests that WAC should explore mechanisms to achieve this given that peer review has been perceived as a way to keep authors from some countries or regions, or with controversial viewpoints from getting published.]
2. Publications should include media beyond print, perhaps to include Web, CD-ROM, video, and other forms. [Holtorf generally agrees but does is concerned about some media, especially video, and whether WAC should be involved in its production and distribution.]
3. Selected publishers need not necessarily be large and profit-oriented. Rather, they should be selected on the basis of 1) quality, 2) how well they match WAC perspectives on archaeology (i.e. inclusiveness, accessibility of information, organizational goals, etc.), and 3) opportunities they offer to WAC that help WAC accomplish its goals. [There is general agreement about this point, but some minor disagreement from several task force members on what it may mean.]
4. WAC publications must be made as accessible as possible, including distribution of free copies, keeping prices low, and use of non-print media. This is more important than any funds WAC might realize from sales. [There seems to be strong agreement that electronic publication, especially the web, may help with issues of distribution. Mechanisms can be complex and can cause problems for publishers of hard copy materials by harming their sales.]
5. Language is a key issue. WAC and its publishers must do everything possible to offer translations of its publications. This will be difficult and costly, but must be attempted . [Several members including Marciniak, Matsumoto, and Holtorf have pointed out that there are questions about which languages get selected and how this may cause ill will. Marciniak and Matsumoto suggest that all non-English materials be translated into English so that authors from these countries will have their work distributed to, and recognized by, scholars from other countries.]
6. WAC's constituencies/stakeholders include more than archaeologists. WAC should consider creating publications for its many publics. [There has been agreement that WAC needs to address the interest and concerns of non-archaeologists, from members of descendant communities to interested members of the general public. There is also agreement that the task is not easy, but should be attempted. See discussion for more detail.]
7. The Executive must continually evaluate WAC publishing for its effectiveness in helping WAC to meet its goals. [Task Force members feel very strongly that evaluation of WAC publication policies must be ongoing. Several have offered to serve, if the Executive wishes to create a publications standing committee.]
Final Comments
WAC publications will continue to grow in complexity, and because of that, there is potential for substantial disagreement between WAC members. The major mechanism by which this can be controlled and minimized is to continually evaluate whether WACs publications are serving the organization well, or at least, as intended. We urge the Executive to develop a standing publications committee and to make both the committee's and Executive's deliberations about publications as transparent as reasonable and possible.

This conversation is closed.
Can a volunteer-based-system ease our governments burden of providing social welfare?
Here's an abridged quote from Robert Kennedy to begin:
"Our gross national product ... counts air pollution and cigarette advertising, and ambulances to clear our highways of carnage... It counts napalm and the cost of a nuclear warhead, and armored cars for police who fight riots in our streets.
"Yet [it] does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education, or the joy of their play. It does not include the beauty of our poetry or the strength of our marriages; the intelligence of our public debate or the integrity of our public officials... it measures everything, in short, except that which makes life worthwhile."
The goal of an economy is to make sure everyone is productive and receives the goods they need. Suppose the role of money is purely to verify that those we are providing goods for have done their productive duty, proven by the $X they have to spend on your goods. Then why can't we develop an additional system of verifying that someone has been productive in their actions?
By adopting a volunteer based service that delivers basic social goods, can we verify that people are being productive and give them basic services in return? Thus helping eliminate poverty, hunger and homelessness in exchange for volunteering for the social good and easing the stress on our nearly bankrupt governments. By having volunteers run local farmers markets and community feeds, help in hospitals, or mentor children we could do a lot of good.
Our world seems to be shifting towards one of abundance; if we only need 2% of our workers to grow food, we should be able to easily feed us all if we all chip in
As doing good becomes a habit, one expected by all our neighbors, kindness would ideally become a way of life, and our children would grow up this way.
I'll end with another Rob Kennedy quote as it seems fitting:
Let us dedicate ourselves to what the Greeks wrote so many years ago: to tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this wor
Sep 23 2012: What was it? A week or several days before 9/11 when Donal Rumsfeld told the country the Pentagon couldn't account for, let's see, 2.5 trillion dollars in expenditures?
I think you are looking in the wrong direction and at the wrong people when you mention welfare and of course untold billions have disappeared in other areas of government over the years.
Politicians are all very wealthy people and many have gotten it through ill-gain, yet slide by without paying for their dishonest, cheating off the welfare of basic, average Americans.
As I recall, they are supposed to be doing public service, public duty, and not stealing from the coffers of the labor force, who work anywhere between three and six months to pay their taxes and there is no law allowing for a fraudulent iRs to tax that labor.
What happens in the end, always? The citizens work together to solve the problems created by politicians and left for us to clean up if we want or need it cleaned up. They volunteer. So, just who isn't needed at all here?
Can you guess?Sep 22 2012: A society where every citizen is productive is desirable.
But such a thing would not happen without extreme measures that would erode the values of freedom and human rights.
Freedom of choice means there are things to choose from; and there may be some of those things that are undesirable, ugly and harmful. One can choose to be lazy, one can choose to be greedy, one can decide to sustain productivity by unethical means, one can decide to be selfish, one can decide to be ruthless in the treatment of workers.
The free market system has its failings; just like any other system that may seem perfect on paper.
Volunteers services should be from willing, caring, concerned and sincere individuals. The good news is that some people are already commited to this; and more of it is desirable, and will be appreciated.
A worker deserves to be paid; and there are roles for volunteers.
But no human system will end poverty. Like murders, wars, adultery, earthquakes, greed, disease and other numerous evils in the world, poverty can only be reduced, not eliminated.
Sep 23 2012: Of course I am not promoting a mandate, I am greatly a fan of choice; and not necessarily every citizen, simply those with an interest in helping others through a small, yet non-trivial benefit that may incentivize one to give time to formally help in their neighborhood. I do not see how helping those who serve others, (perhaps even with something so simple as a military discount to thank those who serve at home) would eliminate freedom of choice. Every good idea can be taken to an extreme too far and without careful concerns the idea could easily go as far an Ayn Rand type of dystopia
I also don't think I am convinced of your belief that we can never end poverty, although even if that were fact, that doesn't mean more can't be done. We've practically eliminated illiteracy, polio, smallpox, and slavery in recent centuries in the western world.
Why not democratize food & potable water too?
Or housing?
Or education? (which may change drastically in the somewhat near future)
Poverty is just the status of not having the basic needs required to support oneself, right? But someone in poverty in America is in much better shape than someone in poverty in a third word nation, so the very state of poverty can at least be improved.
I wonder if our idea of work can change from purely being for wealth accumulation to 90% wealth accumulation/10% good deeds. Shoot make it 5%. Or 1%, even something as small as that on a large scale would get a large amount of good done for our neighborhoods and get people away from their computer and into the community. I think by simply interacting with others with an intention to help would spur more of that as it becomes the general attitude of the community members and spur a genuine desire to care for others.
Gail .
Sep 22 2012: There are many who are out there sharing their talents. But to require the poor/unemployed to work for benefits will cause the salaried employees to be put out of work in favor of cheaper labor. The problem is $$$ itself, not leeches on society. Our economic system cannot survive without poverty.Sep 22 2012: For some reason volunteers are considered a threat to saleried and contract employees. Especially in schools. It is the old rice bowl thing. Schools have a tier system that seperates the administration, certified staff, maintenance, secreterial, and others (which includes school board and volunteers). Admin and teachers can go to all meetings and get in to all events etc .. free. All others must pay. Free meals and furnished bottled water for admin and teachers while others are not even permitted into the sacred teachers lounge. For ten years I put up with snubs and egos but have decided not to continue. I advised the superintendent that I would not be returning and he ask what I did but not why I would not be continuing. He has been here for two years and did not even know how long I had been at the school. Volunteers are disposable.
- +1
Yes they could, and do, a lot of good. But the attitude of the younger teachers and employees toward the older generation will make most of the volunteers limited assets.
The unions and "all about me generation" are enemies to the thought that volunteers could be assets.
Wish it was as easy as you propose. Unfortunately it is not.
Been there ... done that. Bob.Sep 24 2012: Yes please, I would like to read more on that if you can find it. I just watched Rachel Botsman's new talk on trust being a new form of currency, which does a great job of highlighting the idea that through an reputation managed online, we can encourage beneficial interactions between people.
I highly recommend it if you're interested in the topic,
Joe Der
Sep 24 2012: I think volunteerism to ease the burden of social welfare is the best solution to poverty. However, the level of volunteerism is highly dependent on the hearts of the population. If they are hard hearted and selfish, there will be few volunteers. If they have love and compasson for their fellow man there will be more volunteers.
- 0
A problem with the present system is that a faceless check that shows up in the mail begins to feel like an entitlement. If one saw the face of the giver and saw the sacrifice made by the giver, one would be more likely to want to work their way out of their situation. They may be moved to get themselves into a position to help someone else they way they were helped.
The first hospitals in the USA were started by unpaid volunteers (nuns) who saw a need and were moved to do something about it.
If there is no seen need, are we less likely to feel moved? The answser cannot be to remove all government assistance to to let the needs be seen, so that ordinary people will be moved to pick up the slack. But I think that ultimately is the solution, as cruel as that sounds. That solution is never going to happen.
I think we have more poverty now than before there was social welfare. Before social welfare there were pockets of extreme tragic poverty. But many people pulled themselves out of that. Now it seems we have large swaths of long term multigenerational poverty. Pandora's box has been opened and I don't have any solutions.Sep 23 2012: To start with there are several volunteer systems: Habitat for Humanity, I know that in several states where a diverse agriculture , farmers allow gleaning of the left over crops.... Secondly, before throwing our less fortunate to the wolves, Social services provided by churches and such , have historically come at a high price. Namely the selling of ones true beliefs for food, clothing and shelter.
The Government would not be so broke if it would stop engaging in A) giving themselves unlimited pay increases and benefits, B) stop engaging in conflicts lobbied for by private interests.
This does not even begin to address the fact that most people need help because those private interests above , turn around and outsource productive jobs that could be held by those in need .Sep 22 2012: I think it is a thin line between volunteering and slavery. What i wonder about is, why something that seems to be needed by many is not paid, and if, just with like you say "basic goods". Why keep people on the ground? If we (the society) pay billions over billions for private banks, this seems not to be a problem of money.
I do not think that there is a financial need for volunteering. And, why is there a government needed, if the core of a state is run by volunteers? Things you list is the core element of a states legitimacy, if he can't provide this or does not want to provide this, then why do you pay taxes anymore and follow the governments law?
Sep 22 2012: I was thinking volunteers could provide more locally based services, helping ease up on food stamps, welfare, possibly healthcare and community projects as well as prepare for disasters on a local level, hopefully increasing sustainability, while our governments would still be in place to deal with issues of law and order, large scale projects, national defense, foreign policy, and the like.
I have heard recently about volunteers working to reclaim their cities after it has gone through bankruptcy and services like garbage, road and park maintenance were shut down.
As for the slavery concern, that is a valid concern I share but would hope to have it be an opt in system where it simply was inconvenient to not be involved, whether through financial incentives or for social reasons. Just as not having a Facebook can be inconvenient when meeting people who assume everyone has one. Thanks for the reply!
Sep 23 2012: That still does not address the real problem, which is outsourcing of meaningful employment.Sep 22 2012: There is an elegant system that has been extant for 1000's of years called the free market. It is fantastically successful. For just the purpose you seek without all the BS.
Sep 22 2012: You are correct. The free market system has been wildly successful and a more creative force than anything in human history. But it is clearly not perfect and has gotten us into a bit of a hole with its current set up and regulation. If you look at our government the issue of social welfare seems to be a divisive issue. Democrats tend to want more social welfare and republicans want to minimize the role of government regulation.
The free market works on an incentive based system; be productive, get paid, ideally. But it creates negative externalities and encourages accumulation of wealth over creation through productive efforts. Also its not entirely free (as in laissez fairre), we all pay a portion of our income (a proxy for our productive efforts) in taxes to go towards funding projects for the general goodwill of the community, to solve large scale problems we can't take on individually, like fight our wars, police our streets, monitor our safety, pave our roads, sweep our streets, and build our parks and schools.
People could simply give some of their productivity to the people through labor as a volunteer, and maybe pay less in the form of tax dollars or shopping costs and as long as it was done through a trustworthy system. It could possibly be more efficient than our government spending and give an opportunity for the unemployed to take part in productive efforts in exchange for basic services rather than relying upon government runs programs. Citizen run programs rather.
By eliminating or reducing the issue of government handouts from congress's responsibility, funds could be freed up, resources better allocated and perhaps the people would help to solve a lot of our problems in education, healthcare, poverty, etc.,. Possibly, it was a thought I wanted to get discuss, with people who are open to new ways of thinking about a problem.
There is always room for improvement, and I'm hoping to further explore that with this thread.
Sep 22 2012: I would contend that which is not perfect is not the free market. Externailities are covered just fine by extant laws.
The area that needs improvement is the understanding of what already exists.Sep 22 2012: Volunteerism is indeed a wonderful way of improving the quality of life in cities and towns. Probably every city, including yours, has a website announcing ways people can help in your local area, and places like Volunteer Match and United Way also post opportunities with non-governmental social service organizations.
At least where I live, and I assume many other places, there are always many members of the community ready to answer the call without any sort of compensation. In fact where I live there are typically many more people willing to volunteer (without compensation) than social services organizations are able to supervise!
At the level of children, service has become an academic requirement in many if not most high schools and many middle schools, which is another way it has the potential to become part of a way of life.
So I think the spirit of volunteerism is nicely alive!
Sep 22 2012: Thanks for the response, and I understand it's well and alive, but I can't help but feel there can be more done.
I've heard a lot of discussion of mandatory service in the armed forces, and wonder what would happen there was a required amount of volunteer service at home, on a nationwide scale. My idea is that although there are a lot of people willing to volunteer, those who actually do are still in the minority. With some sort of mandate/tax breaks/private benefit or just a general shift in the attitudes of the people, can we find a way to provide all or most of the social welfare we now rely upon our tax dollars to provide? Our tax dollars are generally spent very inefficiently, by those far away from the problems.
I guess I'm looking for opposition, or discussion on the different types of platforms that could be used to make such an idea of "all for one" realistic. Kind of the Facebook of volunteering per se, where everyone might be involved
Sep 22 2012: Oh, I see. You want a universal compulsory thing, kind of like the draft but for everyone. And I guess you want an infrastructure that indicates needs and who has them? And then some way of matching people up with the tasks for which they have the skills and then distributing whatever is produced to the appropriate locations? And you want some verifiable accounting of hours or days spent to assure compliance.
Do I get the picture now? Kind of like a planned economy to produce and distribute what is needed without compensation to those doing the work other than receiving what they may need?
Sep 22 2012: Yea something along those lines. In the novel/movie Starship Troopers, you need to serve in the army to become a citizen, so you can't vote without it but it's not compulsory service. I'm not suggesting anything that extreme but perhaps even something like a military discount to say thanks to those who serve their neighborhoods in addition to those who serve the armed forces. You mentioned Volunteer Match they seem to have a pretty nice interface set up but something along those lines.Sep 21 2012: Ran out of room and I guess the questions are somewhat scattered above, but essentially, Can we use another system of incentives or mandates to get people helping with those who can't afford basic services?
America was founded upon the ideal of a nation "By the people, for the people", however our government is "Paid for by the people," not actually by the people.
By getting people to act in their local communities for the common good, could we make more efficient use of our resources than the government spending of our taxes?
Either through a government mandate of 2hrs/month or some sort of incentive based system?
Sep 23 2012: What you are looking for is tribal psychology , but mandated by the government. You can't mandate social capitalism.
Social Capitalism does exist where I live. It is something that is taught, not mandated. I am having trouble understanding how Social Capital can co-exist with free-market Capitalism on a large scale ?
Please explain how they can co-exist together because they are very opposite ideologies, which living in a small town where it is taught works , but large scale ?
Sep 23 2012: Yes thats definitely not something I should have written, more like a platform to enable it and encourage a small amount of service with some incentive. I definitely am not a fan of mandates.
I like what you mention as it being taught, not mandated, and that is what I was envisioning. My idea would be something like corporate philanthropy, just as many places here in America give military discounts. In order to serve in the military they give a certain amount of time towards protecting our nation, if other civilians decided to help serve our neighbors, they could receive similar benefits.
As it is now, several companies, like Tom's Shoes donation program or any other companies advertising their philanthropic goals, receive a large benefit from concerned citizens. Right now I spend a lot of time going to certain websites (Facebook, Gmail, Twitter, Ted, etc.) and each one facilitates a different niche activity. WIth one focused on getting people out and about helping in the community in a wide range of , I expect it would become a daily part of one's life, getting them out in the neighborhood and simply spur good will. Which I've found to be contagious when genuine.
Large scale would just mean being able to make each person like a contributor to the community, which I would think means keeping it fairly local, while still somewhat connected nationally or internationally.
My favorite opportunity would be to help us avoid another poorly handled disaster like Hurricane Katrina. If you get people engaged in every city signing up for roles in disaster prep, with specific roles, then people would be much better prepared to help out in the case of an emergency. There would probably be some basic guidelines and roles to fill in each city, but people could also be free to sign up to help at a local food bank or mentor children or be a caregiver for someone with disabilities. It would be voluntary, but with some suggested operations and duties for each region.
Sep 24 2012: I am going to save your email because , I was recently reading about a co-op in which credits were given instead of cash. So like a plumber could go and help someone without the cash to pay for it and exchange credits for some food, other services etc..... It is located in more than one city . I can't think of the name of it.
It is a social capital building ideal . This left the person who was poor or had little skills the ability to also give , by caregiving, babysitting, baking you get my drift. Would you like me to try and figure out where I saw the information ?

So, What About the Merits?: Was the Search of Rep. Jefferson's Chambers Lawful?
Marty Lederman
I don't intend to answer the question here, only to provide some pointers for folks more interested in the nitty-gritty:
As a completely separate controversy, there is the ongoing matter of privacy of journalists' own work product; discuss.
I think JackBalkin is right on how the sealed documents will emerge eventually, after the sting has ceased smarting; as long as the legislative process retains its integrity.
All very important, agreed. Good thing we're talking about it.
But there's something we're NOT talking about -- that's the Estate Tax, and how the Senate Republicans are going to try to take it away on June 6.
Democrats won't do anything about it unless we stand up and do something.
Start here: http://menditdontendit.blogspot.com/
You'll find links there to find how we can do something about this.
" that's the Estate Tax, and how the Senate Republicans are going to try to take it away on June 6."
Strictly speaking, I think they're proposing to stop "taking it away" from people.
1. Why did not the FBI deputize the Capitol Police to conduct the raid, ideally with a representative from Hastert and Pelosi's office present, to make sure this would not be seen as an attempt to intimidate the Congress?
2. If the case was so slam dunk, what charge has been filed against Congressman Jefferson?
3. What about the Fourth Amendment rights of staffers who worked in the office? Congress operates in a less partisan manner than people imagine, and it's entirely possible to have people who vote Republican working in Democratic offices and vice-versa.
4. What is to prevent an Executive, bent on expanding his power to dictatorial levels, from using the FBI to intimidate political opponents, or to use searches as a cover to seize materials of no relevance to a case-- but of relevance to the Executive's power over Congress?
The fact that Congress has been indifferent to our civil liberties is no excuse for us to be indifferent to theirs. Rather, if we are indifferent to their civil liberties, we only invite more depradations against our own.
"1. Why did not the FBI deputize the Capitol Police to conduct the raid, ideally with a representative from Hastert and Pelosi's office present, to make sure this would not be seen as an attempt to intimidate the Congress?"
Why, when executing a search of a mob boss, doesn't the FBI deputize his bag men, ideally in the company of a couple of his fellow mafiosos? Well, duh! Because the FBI had no reason to believe that Jefferson wouldn't have been tipped off, and given time to shred any incriminating documents, or move them off site.
The matter might have been different, if Jefferson were some kind of glaring exception to an otherwise saintly body.

Gonzo, I agree with that. Griffin has a brain between his ears unlike that idiot Cam.
But a lot of people were high on Cam last season as he wowed everyone. I never bought it and we're seeing why this season. I think we'll see the same with Griffin only like you say, he can and will make adjustments to be a productive player in the league. But I don't think he'll ever join the ranks of the "elite" in the league by any means.

Zombie Dawn
2006. A mysterious mining accident in a remote territory unleashes an unspeakable horror that creates a zombie horde with an appetite for human flesh. It decimates large portions of the country. The only course of action is to rapidly enclose the infected areas and seal them off from the rest of the remaining, living population. NOW. 15 years later the tattered remains of the government and the mining corporation responsible where the initial event took place commit themselves to finding out what may have happened at the mining complex. The solution is to send in a group of mercenaries and scientists into the quarantined zone to find answers. Crossing over is just the beginning

2011 National Rainbow Gathering Review
This year, 2011, the National Rainbow Gathering was in Washington State about 30 miles Southeast of Mt. Saint Helen's. It was an excellent gathering. There may have been 15,000 to 20,000 people throughout the two weeks of Gathering. I was there solo this year so I had no assistance to build a Camp Baha. But I was able to give two presentations.

A new method for evaluating top scientific cities based on publication rate has recently been proposed. The paper by Lutz Bornmann at the Max Planck Society in Munich and Loet Leydesdorff at the University of Amsterdam is entitled:
Which cities produce excellent papers worldwide more than can be expected? A new mapping approach–using Google Maps–based on statistical significance testing
As explained on The Physics arXiv Blog the method reveals cities where highly-cited papers were published by taking the total number of papers cited by researchers from a particular city and then count how many of these appear in the top ten per cent of cited papers.
Right out of the gate, the method revealed a surprising finding that Cambridge, MA, home of MIT and Harvard University did not appear on the list of top cities. However, a review of the program uncovered a mistake in the coding which accidentally failed to distinguish between Cambridge UK and Cambridge MA. Since it has been corrected, Cambridge MA is now marked with a bold green spot on the map and can reclaim its rightful spot as a world-class scientific city.
So far the map has only been created for the disciplines of physics, chemistry and psychology. I eagerly await the launch of a biology map and will be glad to share the results with you when they become available.
