Enjoy the silence in your veterinary clinic
Need to muffle the noise? Reach for an everyday item.
Mar 01, 2013
Recently our cages were full and every dog seemed to think they had to bark. Some were pretty high pitched, which made it even worse. So, I brought my ear muffs for shooting to the clinic. They worked great! I could still hear the phone, yet my ears didn't hurt when I was done.

Albert Edward Curtis VC (6 January 1866 – 18 March 1940) was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.
Curtis was 34 years old, and a private in the 2nd Battalion, The East Surrey Regiment,[2] British Army during the Second Boer War when the following deed took place at Onderbank Spruit for which he was awarded the VC:
On the 23rd February, 1900, Colonel Harris lay all day long in a perfectly open space under close fire of a Boer breastwork. The Boers fired all day at any man who moved, and Colonel Harris was wounded eight or nine times. Private Curtis, after several attempts succeeded in reaching the Colonel, bound his wounded arm, and gave him his flask — all under heavy fire. He then tried to carry him away, but was unable, on which he called for assistance, and Private Morton came out at once. Fearing that the men would be killed; Colonel Harris told them to leave him, but they declined, and after trying to carry the Colonel on their rifles, they made a chair with their hands, and so carried him out of fire.[3]
Further information[edit]
He later achieved the rank of sergeant and served as a Yeoman Warder. He died on 18 March 1940. His medal is in the Lord Ashcroft collection[4]

An integrated acoustic echo and noise canceler is proposed for hands-free telephony applications. The proposed system includes a computationally efficient double-talk detection (DTD) method and a residual echo cancellation algorithm. The DTD method uses two cross-correlation coefficients and is robust in adverse conditions. In the residual echo cancellation approach, a linear prediction error filter removes the short-term correlation of the residual echo and the resulting whitened residual echo is canceled by a noise-reduction filter. The proposed system was implemented using a general purpose digital signal processor (DSP) with 16-b arithmetic

At age 13 he started playing percussion in the Junior High School Band, Choir, and had private lessons. When he was 14 years old he was a percussionist in the adult community orchestra. When he was 15, the percussion director at Brigham Young University Idaho invited him to become a member of Rix Stix, the university's percussion ensemble. While in Rix Stix he had the pleasure of performing with other college groups like the indoor drumline and jazz big bands. He also met Jay Lawrence, who is to this day a great friend and who he still studies under. Through Jay, Jared has been able to meet with his idols, such as Jeff Hamilton, Kenny Aronoff, David Garibaldi, Rick Latham, Greg Upchurch, Jim Riley, and many more. Through high school, Jared performed in the high school jazz bands, concert bands, and choirs, as well as performing in various college groups and creating rock and jazz groups of his own. He also expanded his knowledge on the piano and took voice lessons. Before the age of 20, Jared has performed with many musical acts including Ed Calle, Amprage, Kristen Korb, Papa Chan, Mecham/Smith Project, Core, Eric Marianthal, Retro Zero, The Secret Splendor, Annie's Water Burial, The Eastern Idaho Jazz and Blues Society House Band, Quahitas, and many more as well as opening for groups like Trust Co., Psychostick, and Bank to name a few.

When we first drove in to the parking lot we thought we may have made a mistake. The motel looked quite dated and the green carpet on the exterior entry walks is tacky. We discovered that the place had been closed and new ownership was in the process of upgrading. Our room was clean, spacious and fully equipped. The location was good due to a pleasant pathway leading to the main street. It is off the main roads so it is quiet. We felt it provided a lot for the money.

Hi, i've a problem with a slider in homepage.
Until a few days ago everything worked perfectly but after updating the theme, the slider on the home is invisible.
I tried to insert the slider in a new page and it works normally, then I think it's a problem of the homepage.
We would provide the login credentials but did not understand how to make the message private opening topic.
however, the problem is visible at the following address: http://www.agenziapiras.com,
in the main menu click on "servizi" (the page will scroll a couple of sections), the slider should appear in the empty space below the text menu (advertising | graphic | marketing ….).
Any ideas?

Allergies Health Center
Fall Allergies and Sinusitis
Autumn has arrived, and you don't feel so good. You can't stop sneezing and sniffling. The return of cool weather leaves you feeling not invigorated but miserable.
What's going on? You may be suffering from pollen allergy, a.k.a. allergic rhinitis or hay fever. Thirty million Americans do, and symptoms typically flare in fall.
Recommended Related to Allergies
Stress Relief Strategies to Ease Allergy Symptoms
If you suffer with allergy symptoms, you know all about the stress of having a chronic condition. Not only is it difficult to breathe with allergy symptoms, but poor sleep can lead to fatigue and problems concentrating. Allergy medicines can cause appetite changes, low energy, and even irritability. All you want is relief: from the stress, the symptoms, all of it.
Read the Stress Relief Strategies to Ease Allergy Symptoms article > >
Like all allergies, hay fever stems from a glitch in the immune system. Instead of attacking harmful foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses, it tries to neutralize "invaders" that ordinarily are quite harmless -- in this case weed pollen grains that fill the air from August through October (up to the first frost).
In someone with hay fever, inhaling these tiny particles triggers a cascade of biochemical reactions, resulting in the release of histamine, a protein that causes the all-too-familiar symptoms. In addition to sneezing, congestion, and fatigue, histamine can cause coughing; post-nasal drip; itchy eyes, nose, and throat; dark circles under the eyes; and asthma attacks.
Ragweed: The Prime Cause of Fall Allergies
Many plant varieties can cause hay fever, but the 17 varieties of ragweed that grow in North America pose the biggest threat. Three out of four people who are allergic to pollen are allergic to ragweed.
A hardy annual, ragweed thrives just about anywhere turf grasses and other perennials haven't taken root -- along roads and riverbanks, in vacant lots, and so on. Over the course of a single year, one ragweed plant can produce a staggering one billion grains of pollen. And it doesn't fall harmlessly to the ground. It floats on the breeze. Pollen has been found hundreds of miles out to sea and two miles up into the atmosphere.
Given the profusion of pollen, is there anything hay fever sufferers can do to limit their misery?
Conventional wisdom says that hay fever sufferers should stay indoors during morning hours, because pollen counts are highest then. Not so, says Neil Kao, MD, assistant professor of medicine at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in Greenville. "I've reviewed 50 years of medical literature on this, and there is simply no proof that hay fever sufferers can minimize their symptoms by staying indoors or going outdoors at certain times of day. This is a myth that even many general physicians believe."

Deutsche Bank Said to Provide Staple Financing for Pact Sale
Deutsche Bank AG is advising and providing staple financing for a potential sale of about 50 percent of Pact Group Pty, according to three people familiar with the matter.
Under the agreement, Deustche Bank would fund at least 50 percent of the value of bids for the stake in the Australian packaging maker, the people said, asking not to be identified because the details are private.
Amanda Lee, an external spokeswoman for Pact Group at FTI Consulting Inc., declined to immediately comment when asked about the sale and financing.
Reuters reported the sale on June 15, citing people it didn't identify.
Staple financing is a pre-arranged debt package offered to potential bidders in an acquisition.

Google has acquired five-month-old startup TalkBin, a local business feedback platform, the company announced on its website. TalkBin describes itself on its website as "a way for your business to deliver a better customer experience by letting customers use their mobile phones to communicate to your business in real time."
TalkBin was founded in December by Qasar Younis, Michael Ma, and Sunny Dhillon. Terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed.
TechCrunch reports that this is mainly a talent acquisition, although "it also apparently sees potential in the product too — Google will be shutting down TalkBin temporarily, but it plans to reopen the service to new businesses down the line."
"We're thrilled to welcome the TalkBin team to Google," Google said in a statement. "They've built a cool way for customers to engage with local businesses, and we think they'll be a great fit for our mobile and local teams."
Wonder if Google will be putting the team to work on getting Google Offers up and running?

Product Description
The seventh season of Survivor made a legend out of Rupert Boneham, the most popular contestant in the history of the kingpin reality show. Was it because the giant bear of a man harbored a gentle personality, expressed in his job as a mentor for troubled teens? Was it his tie-dyed shirt and makeshift skirt? Or was it just good fortune that the season was set in the Pearl Islands of Panama, which allowed black-bearded Rupert, in the very first episode, to steal the opposing tribe's shoes, all in the name of the pirate theme?
But the season wasn't only about Rupert. It got off to an unusual start when the 16 castaways were tossed overboard wearing their street clothes and left to find supplies in a small village. There was Armani-suited attorney Andrew Savage straining to support a load of sand bags, muscular Osten Taylor making a surprising decision that inspired host Jeff Probst to alter his tag line, Sandra Diaz-Twine sneaking around in the bushes, tall blonde Christa Hastie in tears after being accused of throwing away fish, and Jon "Jonny Fairplay" Dalton pulling off a dirty trick and becoming one of the show's great villains. Other memorable contestants included athletic Burton Roberts, sexy mortician Darrah Johnson, and Scoutmaster Lillian Morris. Then when the 10 remaining people in the Drake and Morgan tribes expected a merge, an unprecedented twist prompted one castaway to declare, "Revenge, baby. It's all about revenge." Bonus features consist of commentary on two episodes by the team of Rupert, Sandra, and Christie, and on three episodes by Jon, Ryan Opray ("Ryan O."), Burton, and Andrew; a 29-minute season recap featuring new interviews with a number of contestants; and clips from each person's pre-game interview intercut with in-season footage that either supports or undercuts their plans. --David Horiuchi
Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought
Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
We stayed largely because of Rupert and Sandra, based on their attitudes in the first episode. Rupert's love for life, and Sandra's respect for the islanders they meet in the market, and skills in dealing with them, won us over.
OK, I'll admit there was also some appeal to seeing just how bad "Johnny Rotten" could be, some amazement at the contrast of resources and attitudes between the two tribes, and the twist with the "Outcasts" was very well done (and unexpected), but none of those elements alone (or even all of them together) would have kept us watching for the entire season had it not been for Rupert and Sandra.
We were very disappointed at the DVD options. Hving a 'play all' option is almost a required feature these days and not having one detracted fro the value of the DVD. In addition, not being able to select subtitles (some of the interactions are a bit hard to follow) was a negative aspect.
As a final note, we just could not believe Osten's decision in the first episode with respect to his clothing, were astonished at how Lill's behaviour following the Outcast episode was in such contrast to her oft-stated values, and were not impressed at all with Osten's attitude - did he just not know what he was getting into?

If you've read my blog before you'll know all about my love of food, especially my new-found love of Korean food. So imagine my excitement when I found, quite by accident, cooking classes for foreigners in Seoul. I immediately booked a class, excited not only for the experience, but also so that I could start to recreate my favourite meals at home. After all, I will at some point go back to England, and if I don't know how to make Bibimbap by then it will be a disaster.
I've been living in Korea for 18 months now, enough time to get over the initial culture shock and to adapt to living the Korean lifestyle. There have been both good things- going out for dinner and getting a delicious, filling meal for under £5, and bad- fearing for your life every time you are on/ near the road because of the crazy drivers.
Here are some of the things I have become accustomed to during the last year and a half in Korea- the good, the bad and everything in between…
Last night, an award-winning documentary television program in the Philippines called I-Witness featured one of South Korea's most popular signature dishes, BIBIMBAP.
photo credit
Tonight, I had a sudden craving for Bibimbap, so my husband and I went to what I call our "emergency hangout", a 24-hour restaurant across from our apartment, where we often go when we get hungry in the middle of the night or when he comes home from work at 2 or 3 A.M., starving.
Great Korean Cookbooks
Korean food is very popular, highly nutritious and absolutely easy to make. It does not take a lot of your time provided you have the key ingredients that make up the Korean kitchen. Make sure you stock your refrigerator with the following:

Bruno Serato feeds 300 kids every night. During the holidays, he's doing more.
Before the nightly dinner rush, chef Bruno Serato and staff take a break from cooking for their usual clientele at the Anaheim White House.
Instead of the restaurant's regular fare of white chocolate salmon, gnocchi gorgonzola and filet mignon, the kitchen turns its attention to a humbler dish – spaghetti. For seven years, Serato has fed 300 children every evening at local branches of the Boys & Girls Clubs. The program, inspired by Serato's mother, aims to help the motel kids, those just a step above homelessness.
As recognition for Serato's efforts has grown, so has the program. This Christmas, he's collecting toys, underwear and socks as well as noodles and sauce to support those in need.

I'm new to WordPress and I'm really struggling to add links to elements of pages.
I've had my psds developed into a theme by a developer, but he's gone walkabout at the moment, when I ask him questions I don't get any replies… so you see my dilemma!
Basically my problem is trying to add a page link to an image. I've tinkered with html in Dreamweaver before but never with WordPress. I can't believe how difficult I'm finding it. I thought it was supposed to be easy?!
My site is http://www.wantacreative.co.uk/
Anyway rant over, all I want to do find out is how to add a hyperlink (http://www.wantacreative.co.uk/start-ups) to the green 'Starting A New Venture' image in the right hand column. I've searched online and found certain things but they've not worked!
Thanks in advance.

S&S Cardiac Rehab Program Recertified
Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hospital (SSMH) has been awarded Program Re-Certification for its Cardiac Rehabilitation Program by the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AACVPR). SSMH's Cardiac Rehab program was recognized for its commitment to improving the quality of life by enhancing standards of care.
Cardiac rehabilitation programs are designed to help people with cardiovascular problems such as heart attacks, coronary artery bypass surgery, angioplasty, stents, valve surgery, heart transplant or stable angina, recover faster and improve their quality of life. The program includes exercise, education, lifestyle modification, counseling and support for patients and their families.
The Cardiac Rehabilitation Program at Soldiers & Sailors opened on August 22, 1994. This is the fifth, three-year certification the program has achieved.
Phase I of the program takes place in the hospital where the patient, who has had a heart attack, bypass surgery, angioplasty or stable angina, gradually increases activity, prepares for discharge and learns what is needed to continue with life after the cardiac event.
Phase II, the outpatient program, begins three to four weeks after discharge and lasts up to 12 weeks. In this program, the medical director and cardiac rehab nurses develop a specific exercise prescription for each participant. Three exercise sessions are scheduled each week, closely supervised by advanced cardiac life support nurses, and continuously monitored by EKG.
Phase III is a less formal, but supervised maintenance program that allows continuing exercise under the supervision of the trained cardiac staff.
The Soldiers & Sailors program currently serves approximately 130 patients, and has served more than 1,250 Phase II patients and many more Phase III patients, since its inception. The program has outgrown its space three times since it opened. The service was relocated to the ground floor of SSMH next to the main hospital entrance during the major renovation/expansion project completed at the hospital in 2010.
The program participated in an application process that requires extensive documentation of the program's practices. AACVPR Program Certification is the only peer-reviewed accreditation process designed to review individual programs for adherence to standards and guidelines developed and published by AACVPR and other professional societies. Certified AACVPR programs are recognized as leaders in the field of cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation because they offer the most advanced practices available. AACVPR Program Certification is valid for three years.
For more information on the Soldiers & Sailors Cardiac Rehab Program, a part of Finger Lakes Health, call (315) 531-2596, or visit our web site at www.flhealth.org.
Founded in 1985, the AACVPR is a multi-disciplinary organization dedicated to the mission of reducing morbidity, mortality and disability for cardiovascular and pulmonary disease through education, prevention, rehabilitation, research and disease management. Central to the core mission is improvement in quality of life for patients and their families.

What are the pros? Effortless, lots of flowers
What are the cons? Top heavy, break in high winds
Today is October 11th and my plants are still loaded with flowers. We had a super dry summer with a few episodes of high winds, causing these 3.5' tall plants to break off and fall over. I was so upset, but was shocked a week or so later when the branches that were lying on ground sprouted roots and started growing as new plants, bigger and stronger as if no damage had ever been done!
Baker Seeds' description warns that these marigolds get huge, but "huge" doesn't seem adequate to describe their size in comparison to "normal" marigolds! They were planted in awful clay soil, got very little water most of the summer, but they're like the EverReady Flowers, let me tell ya. I have been collecting seeds from each spent flower; I will probably have in excess of 10K seeds when these Little Shop of Horrors wanna-bes are done for the year.
They're pretty, they're enormous, and they'll need to be staked.

What are the pros? Gorgeous
What are the cons? Hard to germinate
When I was finally able to get some of my seeds to germinate last year, it was worth the effort. I'm having trouble again this year (same pAck of seeds, but I'm determined to get at least one plant because they're so unique and such large plants when they finally get going. Also, I planted several types of marigolds last year and they all kept pollenating each other and my harlequin ended up with different blooms on the same plant. It was awesome. Love them.

What are the pros?
What are the cons?
This is a lovely marigold that in warm conditions and fertile soil will look practically like a bush. In masses it can look like a hedge. Highly recommended.
I really like these. They are large bushy plants and although we have had a fair few blooms over the summer they are budding like crazy now. They are not uniformly perfect but the good ones are gorgeous. They look great with white and red zinnias in the vase.

Here's chapter three. Sam gets desperate to get her gummy bat fix, while some other stuff happens. Also this will probably be the penultimate chapter.
The pains of withdrawal filled Sam, but then she came up with an idea.
"Danny! These ropes are too tight! I have some handcuffs in my closet, don't ask why. Could you use them instead?" (AN: Wow, this sounds SO WRONG out of context) Sam pleaded; she didn't mention they were ghost-proof or that she was planning on using them to incapacitate Danny.
"Um, okay." The halfa shrugged and he began rummaging through Sam's closet. Finally Danny found the handcuffs and he began untying Sam's ropes.
"Okay. I can't watch walk into a trap so easily Danny. So I'm gonna go get some ice cream." Tucker commented. He then promptly left the room.
"What was that all about? What trap?" Danny asked, completely clueless. Sam shrugged and the halfa resumed untying her.
--Line Break--
Tucker walked back into the Manson Mansion, licking his chocolate ice cream cone. He looked up to the stairs.
"I guess I better check on the lovebirds." Tucker sighed and went up to Sam's room. Unsurprisingly, he saw Danny handcuffed on Sam's bed with the Goth in question hanging from the ceiling fan while emptying a bag of gummy bats into her mouth. Tucker could only face palm at this sight. Sighing once again, Tucker went over to un-cuff Danny. Once freed, Danny jumped up and pointed his finger at Sam.
"All we were trying to do was help you! And in return you tricked me and handcuffed me to your bed! Well I hope you have fun drowning yourself in gummy bats Sam!" Danny stormed out of the room and Tucker, seeing that any further negotiations would have no affect followed him.
Once the two were gone, Sam let go of the ceiling fan and landed on her bed. She then scrambled to the floor and looked underneath. Just as I thought, Sam thought to herself. They were too stupid to get rid of my stash. Beneath Sam's bed were dozens of bags of gummy bats, enough to last a normal person two months.
--A couple hours later--
Sam had eaten all of the gummy bats… She lay on her bad, fading in and out of consciousness. Colors swirled around the edge of her line of sight, and a dancing pink elephant sang karaoke on top the TV. (AN: What do they put in gummy bats? Drugs!?) Finally, he stomach having bloated to twice its size, and in the throes of having had a massive sugar rush, Sam passed out.
--Don't worry she's okay--
Sam opened her eyes, the room looked normal, expect for the empty bags of gummy bats scattered everywhere. And the fact she could no longer see over her stomach. The Goth sat up to find a swirling vortex in the middle of her room.
"W-where'd that come from." Sam stuttered, still half asleep/passed out. From the portal emerged a woman about eighteen. She had red hair and wore a suit of armor and had a sword.
"I am Joan of Arc. The patron saint of self confessed, cynical, angst-ridden Goth kids who are in love with their best friends!" She announced. Sam looked rather puzzled.
"What?! I thought you were the patron saint of France?" The Goth asked. A look of unimaginable anger came over Joan of Arc's face.
"Grrr! Stupid! Prejudiced! Historians!" Joan yelled. "Just because I was from France doesn't mean I'm its patron saint! But everyone I tell always says 'No-o, you're from France, so that makes you the patron saint of France!' Well I'm not! I'm the patron saint of self-confessed, cynical, angst-ridden Goth kids who are in love with their best friend. Got it?" Sam leaned back from the angered saint thing.
"So let me guess. You're some gummy bat high induced hallucination here to tell me the error of my ways?" Sam asked sarcastically.
"What? No." Joan replied. "I'm here to tell you about the Black Prophecy. Sam, unless you want everyone you love to die, you must sacrifice sixteen infants to-"From the vortex emerged a cloaked figure wielding a massive scythe. His face was shrouded, but it appeared to be nothing more than a skull. Sam immediately recognized this being to be the Grim Reaper, and were it not for the fact that she was convinced this was some hallucination, the Goth would've asked for his autograph.
"Joan of Arc!" Grim yelled in a surprisingly Jamaican accent. "You're late for your lobotomy class!" Sam looked towards the saint in confusion.
"Lobotomy class?" The Goth asked.
"All proper saints should know how to drill holes in people's heads." Joan explained. Grim grabbed her by the hand and dragged the saint back into the vortex. "We'll talk later!" Joan yelled before disappearing in the portal, which promptly shut.
"What the he-"Before Sam could finish talking, darkness clouded her vision, and for the second time that day, she passed out.
Another chapter ends. The Joan of Arc part is based off that in the series Clone High, Joan of Arc is almost a carbon copy of Sam, and Joan once called herself a "cynical, angst ridden Goth kid" and is in love with her best friend. I hope that explains things.

Skip to comments.KODAK IS DEAD
Posted on 10/03/2011 9:26:07 AM PDT by shortstop
My work is done.
Those words were some of the last penned by George Eastman. He included them in his suicide note.
They mark an ignoble end to a noble life, the leave taking of a truly great man.
The same words could now be said for the company he left behind.
My work is done.
For all intents and purposes, the Eastman Kodak Company is through. It has been mismanaged financially, technologically and competitively. For 20 years, its leaders have foolishly spent down the patrimony of a centurys prosperity. One of Americas bedrock brands is about to disappear, the Kodak moment has passed.
It is as wrong as suicide, and, like suicide, is the result of horrifically poor decisions, a fatal wound of self-infliction.
But George Eastman is not how he died, and the Eastman Kodak Company is not how it is being killed. Though the ends be needless and premature, they must not be allowed to overshadow the greatness that came before.
History testifies of the greatness of George Eastman.
It must also bear witness of the greatness of Kodak.
Few companies have done so much good for so many people, or defined and lifted so profoundly the spirit of a nation and perhaps the world. It is impossible to understand the 20th Century without recognizing the role of the Eastman Kodak Company.
Kodak served mankind through entertainment, science, national defense and the stockpiling of family memories.
Kodak took us to the top of Mount Suribachi and to the Sea of Tranquility. It introduced us to the merry old Land of Oz and to stars from Charlie Chaplin to John Wayne, and Elizabeth Taylor to Tom Hanks.
It showed us the shot that killed President Kennedy, and his brother bleeding out on a kitchen floor, and a fallen Martin Luther King Jr. on the hard balcony of a Memphis motel.
When that sailor kissed the nurse, and when the spy planes saw missiles in Cuba, Kodak was the eyes of a nation. From the deck of the Missouri to the grandeur of Monument Valley, Kodak took us there. Virtually every significant image of the 20th Century is a gift to posterity from the Eastman Kodak Company.
In an era of easy digital photography, when we can take a picture of anything at any time, we cannot imagine what life was like before George Eastman brought photography to people. Yes, there were photographers, and for relatively large sums of money they would take stilted pictures in studios and formal settings.
But most people couldnt afford photographs, and so all they had to remember distant loved ones, or earlier times of their lives, was memory. Children could not know what their parents had looked like as young people, grandparents far away might never learn what their grandchildren looked like.
Eastman Kodak allowed memory to move from the uncertainty of recollection, to the permanence of a photograph.
But it wasnt just people whose features were savable; it was events, the sacred and precious times that families cherish. The Kodak moment, was humanitys moment. It was that place in time where there is joy, where life has its ultimate purpose.
From the earliest round Brownie pictures, to the squares of 126 and the rectangles of 35mm, Kodak let the fleeting moments of birthdays and weddings, picnics and parties, be preserved and saved. It allowed for the creation of the most egalitarian art form. Lovers could take one anothers pictures, children were photographed walking out the door on the first day of school, the person releasing the shutter decided what was worth recording, and hundreds of millions of such decisions were made.
And for centuries to come, those long dead will smile and dance and communicate to their unborn progeny. Family history will be not only names on paper, but smiles on faces.
Thanks to Kodak.
The same Kodak that served is in space and on countless battlefields. This company went to war for the United States and played an important part in surveillance and reconnaissance. It also went to the moon and everywhere in between.
All while generating a cash flow that employed countless thousands of salt-of-the-earth people, and which allowed the companys founder to engage in some of the most generous philanthropy in Americas history. Not just in Kodaks home city of Rochester, New York, but in Tuskegee and London, and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He bankrolled two historically black colleges, fixed the teeth of Europes poor, and quietly did good wherever he could.
And Kodak made that possible.
While doing good, Kodak did very well.
And all the Kodakers over all the years are essential parts of that monumental legacy. They prospered a great company, but they with that company blessed the world.
That is what we should remember about the Eastman Kodak Company.
Like its founder, we should remember how it lived, not how it died.
My work is done.
Perhaps that is true of Kodak.
If it is, we should be grateful that such a company ever existed. We should rejoice in and show respect for that existence.
History will forget the small men who have scuttled this company.
But history will never forget Kodak.
Kodak is one of the worst companies for enforced political correctness in the whole United States. I've been boycotting them for years. It serves them right that in concentrating on political correctness, they've lost the competitive edge to allow them to develop industry leading digital imaging products to replace their silver halide technologies. They've been living off their old reputation and goodwill for too long.
Here's a link to a related thread.
Kodak shares plunge as bankruptcy fears escalate

That actually made me tear up a bit.
The company either did not see or ignored the threat of the disruptive technology that was digital photography. Polaroid made the same mistake.
He said they looked at him like he was crazy and ignored him from there.
I agree. I have done business with them for years. Never in my career have a seen a more broken corporate culture. Every meeting has a "Cast of Thousands" where no one wants to make a decision. People change positions like Musical Chairs, and there is no accountability along the way. Once Rochester's great employer, now a mere remnant of the past.........
Buggy whips are gone now too. Future shock.
In the mid-80s my group was working with Kodak on a new product line. We were going to purchase the product. One day a hatchet man showed up with the Kodak development team. The message was "you fund our remaining development and purchase the product at an inflated price and these people won't get laid off." We didn't bite.
I used Kodak slide film for years until I finally had to go with Fuji. Boy was Kodachrome a great product. I have color slides my Grandparents took from the mid 40's that are so vibrant in color, you would have thought they were shot yesterday.
I thought they had died a long time ago. I have not seen a roll of Verichrome Pan 127 roll film on the shelf in many years.
Look for an Obama Bailout.
Hasselblad went to the moon.
This seems like a prime candidate for an Obama bail out. A mismanaged company in a dying industry in a reliably Democratic state.
Kodak copiers were a silly misadventure.
It's double heartbreak to see *American institutions* that us *oldsters* grew up with, and enjoyed their products for years and years, fall to the dust heap of history. Not having followed them for years, since I went digital, is no excuse for me not knowing how bad they had become.
Guess they join my brief lament for some newspapers I once enjoyed, American cars, and Stanley Tools.
I don't like where we are going. Do you hear that USA? Breaks my heart.
Kodak painted itself into a corner decades ago. They had one product and no competitive advantage in the market.
Google search for Kodak Political Correctness
I agree about the layers of useless management. I worked at a subsidiary called ATEX all through the 1980's. Same mentality there until almost 1990. Absolutely clueless. An article about a 10% RIF appeared in the Boston Globe the morning before it happened. Upper management dismissed the report. Because, as they said, "it was only a 9% RIF".
Hasselbald did not make film. BTW, I've been given tours of both Hasselbald in Goethenberg and a Kodak plant in Rochester. Hasselbald was a like a hobby shop, Kodak was a real manufacturing facility. In the day.
One can look at a company as a "scale model" of a company. It may start out on a very good tact, with good economic policy and thinking. It may even prosper for awhile on past glory. But, eventually, with enough of the wrong people in the wrong places at the wrong time, it can begin to collapse, and when it reaches a sort of critical mass of mismanagement, nothing can stop it from winking out of existence.
Modern Art Photography
If we consider the history of creating imagery from primitive to the modern there must be certain timelines that account for how things happened. The ancients in the region recorded their thoughts, left messages and depicted their lives on the canyon walls, in their caves and on any media they found useful. Certainly all cultures found their own way to communicate; the talented few always came forward as their recorders of history. Were these talented few born with the creativity? Or did they develop this talent through intensive training in the technical process?
If we spring forward a thousand years we have the benefit of watching the evolution of the form. Although photography dates back to Leonardo da Vinci's inventions during the Renaissance, the modern camera was invented in the 1830s with daguerreotypes. The first cameras were large and bulky, so people came to the photographer's studio to have their pictures taken. This meant that the main purpose was to record what people looked like, which could be done more quickly and inexpensively than ever before. This has had a profound impact on art, and has prompted many artists to explore new styles. And so, modernism was born.
In painting and printmaking the form evolved into what was called the new art, beginning with the impressionists in about 1870. Photography continued recording the accuracy of what people looked like or to record history as evidenced during the Civil War with Mathew Brady. Here in Utah C.R. Savage was one of the first to record the important history. In southern Utah Jack Hillers accompanied John Wesley Powell in 1872 in the explorations of the Grand Canyon.
The science of the form drove their technique. But was it art? Most imagery was posed and not impromptu as evidenced by E.S Curtis and his circle. Images looked stilted and did not leave much to the imagination. But suddenly we spring forward to the turn of the twentieth century and the group formed in New York by Alfred Stieglitz.
Stieglitz was originally a leading figure in the promotion of the idea that photography harbored the same aesthetic potential as painting. He fostered the progress of artistic photography in this direction by showcasing the work of young photographers who challenged the dominant conception of the medium. Instead of showcasing the use of photography as a tool for documenting or depicting the details of nature, these young photographers attempted to show, primarily through imitation of painterly styles, that photography could attain status as an art form.
This new approach to art photography was inspirational for all that followed the form. They strive to do more than record the images of nature, rather they make a serious effort in creating art; art that is beyond simple imagery. This approach to modernism was introduced to the painter Maynard Dixon in 1920 when he met the young New York photographer Dorothea Lange. Dixon began distilling and simplifying his approach.
This period, 1920-1960, brought Dorothea Lange, Edward Weston, Ansel Adams and several other modernists to these regions for the purpose of making fine art photography. These were the purists with serious bias about their art form in black and white. Much of the art occurred in the darkroom. And then there was the life of photographic paper. The argument was that color would not hold. As color was introduced in the late thirties the art photographers held steady with their beliefs about the power of black and white. Several pioneers broke away from the old beliefs as papers improved with newer coatings and a better lifespan. Eliot Porter and David Muench in particular continued with the science of color as an art form.
And then digital happened. All of the old ideas about the art form changed.
After thirty years of work in all the above, Modern Art Photography was born. Suddenly new converts having found their own voices in this new digital world. The technical side of the problem is conquered with powerful technology from Canon and Nikon. The science is now taken care of and it is only left up to the artist to find his own voice in this brave new world.

It used to be if you got a job at Kodak you were set for life. Sad to see it's a dinosaur now.
Companies come, companies go...adapt or die.
I worked there as a software engineer
The woman in charge was an idiot so I told them I was leaving and gave two weeks notice
The idiot woman told me I couldn't leave. I insisted for the two weeks that I was going. She honestly thought as the boss she could ORDER me to stay. She came from a government agency (20 and out!)
When I didnt show up the next Monday after my two weeks notice I got about 20 phone calls asking where I was, including several telling me I had to come to a meeting they would organize to explain myself.
I told them I didnt work there any more and I was not planning on coming to their meeting. They CALLED me from the meeting...
Then when they found out this idiot woman didnt know anything about writing software and needed to call me back to finish it about a years later, I found out I was on their 'black list' because I left and they could not hire me back. (Remember- THEY called ME to come back, because I was the only one who was able to make it work)
Libtards, all of them
Is there a product that I can use with my scanner to scan slides to a larger scale .jpg? I have heard there may be a scanning adapter but have only seen ones that will scan the slide in it's original size (too small).
I had taken a few hundred slides to a local developer who gave me a break on the per quantity price and did a fantastic job, but when I showed up the next time with a few hundred more slides, the guy that worked with me the first time was no longer there and his manager wouldn't budge on the cost.
Gee, come to think of it, I hope the first guy didn't lose his job on my account... ;-)
Those who still have grandad's stock certificates for E.H.& T Anthony are laughing in their hats.
Proof that there is no "Too big to fail" but instead, Too big to change.
" I have not seen a roll of Verichrome Pan 127 roll film on the shelf in many years."
Ha! Nobody has. I still have an old 127 box camera. I used my share of Verichrome Pan 120, though. It made a great b&w proofing film for Ektacolor. I'll miss Kodak. My whole Vietnam tour was recorded with many rolls Tri-X and a Voightlander Vito.
Out of curiosity, why? I liked the speed they had.
Having said that, in a previous job, one engineer told me she worked
on that product line at Kodak, and said she was given a month to
choose a component, something on the order of a resistor. She
decided she wanted to work in a more challenging company.
Wow... if that's true, then Kodak deserves to be shuttered.
"A real manufacturing facility"? It had its own Zip Code and Fire Department. It was the largest user of Silver in the world. Flat Cars of Silver would be lined up on the railroad tracks.
That's funny because I had a similar experience with a female boss who had the IQ of dried dog shit.
She wound up getting canned anyway so I didn't have to resort to leaving.
Fortunately, Lee-Neilsen keeps the Stanley and Bailey lineage alive and thriving.
I dabble in astronomy, and saw a notice a few years ago that some b/w astro-friendly films were no longer in production. Can't remember the specifics.
My wife's aunt's boyfriend (practically my twin, in terms of affiliation) was the retired director of public relations for Kodak. Around twenty years ago he arranged a tour of one particular plant in downtown Rochester for me, completely without any prompting from me, and it would have seemed ungracious for me to decline. It was an interesting tour of a huge, buzzing, and largely automated facility. My wife had cousins in Rochester and they all either worked for Xerox of Kodak. Everything he says about Kodak people is true: wonderful, gracious Americans, all.
Excellent point!!!
Remember when Kodak was sued by Polaroid and LOST over their instant pictures?
Kodak had the classic error. They did not know the business they were in. Even when it was staring them in the face. (remember the phrase "Kodak moment?" It was because film cost money and your images per roll were limited.)
They ALMOST had an idea with the printer with the cheeper ink but then failed again.
Perhaps the reason Kodak failed is the same reason Pan Am ultimatly failed.
Every once in a while I see devices that transfers slides to your computer in catalogs like Sharper Image. As far as I know, they are full size when they are transferred. I know our local camera shop gets an arm and a leg to do it so I just break out the old Kodak carousel and screen.
I used to work in the industry. I mixed chemistry and monitored the Kodachrome and print processors.
I remember the days when we were having trouble keeping the Kodak high speed printers in balance. The kodak rep. said we had to use Kodak paper. The plant manager got him to show up anyway, but parked 3 skids of Fuji paper outside the printer room doors so the rep. had to walk around them.
At Raychem (another company that is no more) we called them HMBAs. The management (which included as president a guy whose wife was one of the heirs to the Levi Strauss bucks and who went to Harvard) was enamored with Harvard MBA's. They were over paid and most of them could not figure out the way to the men's room. Now Raychem is no more, having been swallowed up by Kosloski and Company (Tyco). The other hallmark of Raychem was the management always having their self-interest above that of the company.
Hasselblad camera, Kodak film.
All around us
Everywhere we look
Every moment that we live
Can fill a picture book
Light and shadows
Smiles and sentimental tears
They're a precious treasure
We can cherish through the years
Making memories, making memories
Taking pictures is making memories
Catching little pieces of time
Making them yours, making them mine
Great vacations and celebrations
Can fade away in a year
Cause when we're making memories
Happy days are always here
Happy days are always here
My God... small world. I worked there as a software engineer for many years. I probably know who you are referring to. Are her initials NP by any chance? Or possibly AF? They had the worst management of any company, not pnly on Earth, but in the entire galaxy..
I worked at Kodak for 5 years.
As the digital imaging revolution arrived, Kodak lost sight of their customer. They thought retail stores were the customers, and satisfied their demands ... but the button pushing picture taking public were the real customers, and when (despite plenty of warning) the general public went digital en mass, film providers were far behind the curve.
Kodak had great technology, but chose to outsource digital products instead of make the massive painful transition to leverage that technology for a changing market. Being a photographic chemical company, they had the choice of sticking to photographic or chemical but not both. They chose wrong.
This a company which, AFAIK into the '90s, had an indoor rifle range.
Let's not forget the indoor pool they built on the 6th floor at Kodak Park. The never filled the pool because nobody did the math until after it was built, somebody ran the numbers and reported that the building would collapse if they filled it with water. They used it for years as a developing tank for large prints. I kid you not.. this actually happened.
Houston farmed in Dakota Territory and the name Kodak came from Dakota. Of course, once the invention became famous and Eastman became involved in lawsuit infringement patents as to just which patent rights he had purchased, he tried to claim the name of his now famous company was inspired by the sound of a camera clicking.
I used to do field service for a formerly great instrument and computer company at all the EK facilities in the Rochester area. I was at one of the guarded entrances to the park when Ronald Reagan visited. He stood with the guards for photos. A week later when I returned one of the guards showed me the photo. It was printed on Fuji paper. We both had a good laugh over that one.
