After a month or so choosing a pair quality lightweight walking shoes for my 4 hours a day of dog walking I decided on these. The fit and feel are perfect and the quick lacing system is perfect.

The Brazilian immigrant population in the United States doubled during the 1980s and almost tripled in the 1990s, but stabilized following the Great Recession.

Product Description
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 2–Students and teachers of conversational Hebrew, as well as families interested in introducing the language, will appreciate this picture dictionary. Basic Hebrew words for parts of the body, members of the family, clothing, the house, school, playground, city, grocery store, bedtime, bath time, a birthday party, the zoo, the seasons, numbers, and colors are included. All are written in block letters with English transliteration and translation. Each spread includes a large, detailed illustration with the individual items clearly identified along the bottom. The color cartoon art is cheerful and contemporary. At the back of the book, a word list is organized alphabetically in English and includes the Hebrew words and corresponding page numbers. All in all, this is a wonderful resource. It's more sophisticated than Schlomo Peterseil's Fun with My First Words (Pitspopany, 2001), more child-friendly than Howard I. Bogot's My First 100 Hebrew Words (URJ Press, 1993), and less intimidating than Heather Amery's The First 1000 Words in Hebrew (Usborne, 1985).–Rachel Kamin, Temple Israel Libraries & Media Center, West Bloomfield, MI

Hebrew has this "ord making process' that includes "compound' of words from roots. Beth meaning "house".
It might have been better for the author to emphasize more of the root words. However the book is a good start, colourful, and a valuable teaching tool.

(Sept. 26, 2012) -- The UTSA faculty astronomers invite the community to attend "Friday Nights, Celestial Lights," featuring a talk by John Mather, Nobel laureate and senior astrophysicist at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, Md. Free and open to the public, the family-friendly astronomy event is 7:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 28 in the Main Building Auditorium (0.104) on the UTSA Main Campus.
Mather's lecture, "History of the Universe from Beginning to End," will tell the story how the universe began with the Big Bang and how it could have produced an Earth where human beings live and are now discovering their history.
Following the presentation, weather permitting, attendees will have the opportunity to view the night sky using UTSA's telescopes including a 15-inch telescope and several eight-inch Cassegrain telescopes. Night viewing will be from the fourth-floor patio of the Science Building, which is wheelchair accessible.
Mather specializes in infrared astronomy and cosmology and is the senior project scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope, which followed the famed Hubble Space Telescope.
In 2008, he received the Nobel Prize for his research as project scientist for the team that worked on the NASA Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite. The satellite measured the color spectrum of the heat radiation from the Big Bang, discovered hot and cold spots in the radiation and hunted for the first objects that formed after the great explosion.
Mather's lecture is sponsored by the UTSA Department of Physics and Astronomy and Southwest Research Institute.
The monthly "Friday Nights, Celestial Lights" lecture and viewings began in 2009 as a celebration of the International Year of Astronomy, commemorating the 400th anniversary of Galileo Galilei using a telescope to observe the heavens.
For more information, contact Eric Schlegel, UTSA Vaughan Family Professor, at 210-458-6425 or Mark Jurena, UTSA astronomy lecturer, at 210-458-4922.

Brutal Thoughts With Jack Black Part 4
Written Friday, July 10, 2009 By Dan WebbView author's profile
Jack Black makes another testosterone filled appearance in the latest skit for Brutal Legend, "Brutal Thoughts With Jack Black."
Part 4 takes a look at the battle-axe, seeing Jack swing it around and giving a little history lesson - Wikipedia style! - of Riggs' weapon of choice. It's a mildly amusing clip but it definitely misses the calm presence of Tim Schafer himself. Bring back Tim I say!

Reseña del editor
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

PARIS: Seau's impact hits 20-year mark
LA COSTA — No. 55 is turning 20 years old, and that's something worth celebrating.
That jersey number, of course, belongs to Chargers legend Junior Seau. But we're toasting Seau not for his work between the sidelines, but outside of them.
The Junior Seau Foundation is starting its third decade, and that's as impressive as any of Seau's thunderous hits.
"He could be kicking back and be doing anything he wants,'' Toki Lewis said. "But it shows that he really does care. He cares about the community, cares about young kids, and cares about their futures.''
The past is just that for Seau, retired from the NFL since 2009. But what thrives with the energy he played with is his foundation. On Sunday night will be the splashy fundraising banquet at the La Costa Resort and Spa, followed by Monday's 20th anniversary golf tournament.
All that dough collected from these events, all the lettuce from the auction items, all the contributions from people, like Seau and sponsors, goes to help teenagers who have the initiative, if not the bank account, to continue their education.
Just like Toki Lewis.
When Lewis graduated from Oceanside High, college was in his vision. He longed to attend the University of San Diego to chase a business degree, but his first financial lesson arrived when he saw its tuition.
Lewis quickly found that intersection of sticker and shock.
"It's a private college, so I was a bit surprised about the cost,'' he said. "I thought, 'Is there a sale price somewhere?' ''
Not exactly.
Instead, Lewis, prodded by his high school counselor, looked toward the Junior Seau Foundation, which has distributed more than $4 million through its programs. When Lewis was selected as one of its 2005 scholars of excellence recipients, his college aspiration got a boost.
"They really helped me follow my dream, go to that college, and get an opportunity,'' Lewis said. "But I felt like they cared about me as an individual, and not just another person who wants something. That is one of the great things about it.''
Great is Seau making 12 Pro Bowls as a Charger. Great is being a team leader, which Seau was in spades.
But greatness, for Seau, is stretching beyond his chosen profession to help others obtain theirs. People like Lewis, who received a share of the more than $500,000 Seau has distributed since 1992.
"You could sense he had something special,'' Seau said. "You could see he had a twinkle in his eye. In a football sense, he was like a fifth-round draft pick with a great upside. Our hat is off to him.''
Our cap is tipped toward Seau and his foundation's efforts. These young adults Seau lends a hand to are our future, and when you meet someone like the engaging Lewis, that future is in good hands.
That Seau's endeavor has lasted 20 years — a lifetime in athletic charity foundations — is amazing.
"It really is,'' said Seau, an Oceanside High alumnus and resident. "After I joined the Chargers, I started the foundation in my garage and it had one phone line. Now we are raising $600,000 a year, and that doesn't even include the in-kind gifts we receive. I never thought or envisioned it could still be helping people 20 years later.''
In addition to the scholars program, Seau's Shop with a Jock for at-risk kids at Christmas time has distributed $365,000. Then there's the longtime Thanksgiving tradition of Seau hosting more than 700 needy families for turkey dinner.
"You can't describe how it makes you feel to be able to affect hundreds, or thousands, of kids along the way,'' Seau said.
But like he did after making key tackles, Seau is pondering the next play. Instead of resting on the accomplishments of Lewis and others, Seau stresses that much work remains.
"You just push to do more,'' Seau said. "And that is the sad thing about it. Because as much as we give, it is still not enough.''
But Seau helped Lewis earn a USD degree, which catapulted him into his career at a San Marcos apparel company.
And it turned Lewis into a foundation booster. He returns to talk to other students each year; he produced a five-minute video about how the foundation helped him.
Lewis, 24, embraced the scholarship, but also the foundation's creed of always paying forward.
"It's fun when you get that and you are being honored,'' said Lewis, who lives in Oceanside. "But to be able to come back to each event, support this organization and what it does, it makes you feel good inside. It feeds my yeaning to help others."
Lewis describes Seau much like frustrated rival offensive coordinators did during No. 55's Hall of Fame career.
"You can't believe,'' Lewis said, "how many people he has touched.''

General Homebrew Discussion / Re: Crickets« on: June 21, 2012, 09:29:38 AM »
Alright, Now I am heading in. Traffic is gone, and SWMBO won't be angry about brewing stuff being strewn about the kitchen. See y'all in a half hour or so!
This section allows you to view all posts made by this member. Note that you can only see posts made in areas you currently have access to.
That's very noble of you, but I think I can survive. I washed everything in the sink and have clothes drying everywhere. Makes me feel a little more alabama.
garc_mall, are you not at the conference? I'd buy you a beer if you got some time to spare Sunday.
The character of a beer will certainly change over time and with conditioning. I assume the taste before conditioning was uncarbonated? carbonation will also drastically change the overall flavour profile of the beer, highlighting some flavour aspects while covering up others.
So what are some of the places around the Hotel people can go for good beer, some food, and more good beer?
I know there's a Rock Bottom and The Tap House Grill nearby, but maybe some locals can give a couple other suggestions.
They're always silver, otherwise, I'm not sure how you tell.
Get about 2000 of them and close yourself in a small room then wet them. If you can't breathe, then they are the right ones.
Are people putting these caps on without sanitizing? I'm not crazy about that idea but there's talk if you sanitize them, then by the time you put them on the bottle, they have lost their O2 absorbing ability.
If you bring up the Info on each individual song, there is a place, maybe the second tab, where you can "check" part of a compilation. Then the song will be listed by artist and down at the bottom of the lis as an album.
Thank me in Bellevue.
awesome thanks.
I only use the "Compilation" box when the album really is a compilation (like a movie soundtrack). The other way to do this is to go to the fourth tab on the Info box and just put Leo Kottke in the Album Artist field.

Memphis quarterback brightens the day of young hospital patient
Jacob Karam is the starting quarterback for the Memphis Tigers, but he's making people take notice for another reason.
Karam threw for 1,895 yards and 14 touchdowns for the Tigers last season, but really made his mark off the field when he recently visited St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis and accompanied 11-year-old leukemia patient Breanna Bercegeay.
Bercegeay sang "Price Tag" by Jessie J featuring B.o.B. and Karam joined in, even supplying the rap in the song's bridge.
It's pretty heartwarming stuff. Well done, Jacob and Breanna.

Reviews for Pretzel Jello Dessert
"Had this while in Pittsburgh at a family gathering it was good I got home made it for my family and they LOVED IT ! I poured the jello over it and it ran down in the preztles and set it was still great next time I will let the jello set some before pouring .Will be trying with other flavors too .If you use graham crackers just make a cheese cake the preztles make it unique .This is now apart of our desert menu for life !"
"Used 3 c. Pretzels before crushing, 2 T. Sugar, 1 stick butter for crust. 1/2 c. Sugar for filling (cool whip and cream cheese same). Mixed watermelon and strawberry/kiwi jolly rancher brand jellos. Turned out fabulous. Was a Big hit! Note: watch the jello. It sets totally solid too quickly!"
"This is so delicious! I just made it for the second time today and can't wait to serve it at my ladies luncheon tomorrow. The pretzel crust is the best! Thanks for sharing!"
"Add the frozen strawberries and you have the world renowned PRETZIL SALAD!!Everybody knows this! Cheats!!"
"Too salty for me. But otherwise everything was good. I think I would like graham crackers instead of pretzels."
"I used 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs instead of pretzels. Did not have. I did add strawberries . Turned out great."
"Very tasty! It reminds me of the pretzel crust dessert my mother makes. However, next time I make it I might cut back on the sugar. It was a little too sweet for me. I would probably add more pretzels for a thicker crust. My guests did not seem to mind. It was gone in and instant!"
"So quick and simple! We love this for a great summer treat."

U ROCKSSss!!
this is worth watch 999999999999times!!!
nice 1~
Dude, this is awesome...
I really liked this, but the animation and movement kind of reminded me of Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. If you look at the choreography in that movie and the animation here, the way it's set up looks so similar. I could watch this over and over again. I really did enjoy this nice stick battle scene. I just wish more like it would appear.
dis iz micool

But its not the best, I think Tarboy is waaaaaaay better.

On December 7, 2012, the Engelberg Center for Health Care Reform at Brookings held a webinar on "Developing a Taxonomy of Surveillance Methods for Medical Product Safety." This webinar explored how the classification of surveillance methods allows for researchers to determine the most suitable methodology for monitoring medical product safety scenarios. This classification has helped to provide clear and practical guidance for methods selection in active medical product surveillance. Dr. Joshua Gagne highlighted progress in categorizing medical product safety scenarios and developing structured decision tables for methods selection. Dr. Meghan Baker provided an overview of a methods framework for vaccine-specific safety monitoring.

Last month, Fandango was invited to George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch in Northern California for a preview of the Indiana Jones Blu-ray collection, which hits home video shelves tomorrow. In addition to getting a glimpse of what will be included in the newly restored collection, we also got a chance to view Indiana Jones and The Raiders of the Lost Ark in IMAX. The film hosted a movie marathon at select AMC theaters this past Saturday and recently extended its IMAX re-release.
During the brief presentation of the Blu-ray features, we also got to chat with creative director at Industrial Light & Magic, Dennis Muran and sound designer Ben Burtt. Burtt won an Academy Award for his work on Raiders.
First, let's run through what's included in the Blu-ray collection. All four Indiana Jones films are presented in 1080p high definition with 5.1 Dolby Dolby DTS-HD audio. Trailers are included on the film discs. The real treat comes with the fifth disc filled with over seven hours of bonus footage including On Set with Raiders of the Lost Ark and a making of feature for each film.
That's just the beginning, though. The bonus disc includes features on the stunts, the sounds, the music and the special effects of Indiana Jones and a look at the women of Indiana Jones' films, iconic props and much more.
Sound quality is one of the biggest improvements over the original theatrical and home video copies. Indeed, if you were able to catch the IMAX re-release, you will notice that a significant amount of time has been put into re-mastering the sound effects in the film.
Muran calls the movies textbooks on filmmaking and effects works. "The effects on the Indy films took second place to the story and the characters. Our effects could not show up in a way as being flashy."
"The sound people's job in these films was to make illusions of these made-up movie effects and make them credible," Burtt said. "The boulder in Raiders of the Lost Ark was one of the biggest challenges of the first film. We came up to Skywalker Ranch in a little Honda Civic station wagon and were on a dirt road and I just hung out the window and recorded the tires rolling and that became the boulder."
Burrt also offers up another nugget of Indy trivia. He had been experimenting to find the right sound for the scene when the lid of the Ark is moved. What worked best? "The lid of my toilet bowl was perfect. It has a nice ceramic sound. I hate to say it, it sounds wrong, but it worked perfectly."
Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures hits Blu-ray tomorrow.

We stayed here for my nieces wedding next door at the ybor museum. We had great customer service from the time we checked in until we left. Everyone was friendly from the registration clerk to the cooks at the morning breakfast. They even pre set up our cab ride to the airport. There is a lot of great places to eat. I recommend the Columbian...great food!

Supervisor Theodore Lipscomb Responds to LRB-1340/2
Supervisor Supports Constructive Reform But Disagrees With Current Draft of Reform Bill
Milwaukee – Supervisor Theodore Lipscomb, District 1 has issued the following statement after reviewing latest draft of Reform Bill LRB – 1340/2.
"I support constructive reform of Milwaukee County government, but it must maintain a true balance of power between the branches. The current bill draft explicitly restricts the oversight of the county board and expands the authority of the county executive; essentially, this would give the administration a blank check and unprecedented executive power."

In 2012, Nikon enacted a new and ugly repair policy. Nikon no longer sells its parts to independent consumers or to independent camera dealers. If, for example, you drop your camera and damage the LCD screen, you will not be able to purchase a replacement screen to fix the camera yourself nor will you be able to work with a reputable camera dealer in your area. If a Nikon camera needs repair, it must be shipped to the Nikon Repair Center. This policy holds the consumer hostage as the cost of shipping, parts, and unnecessary labor will come close to the cost of a brand new camera. If you are capable of making your own repairs or if you have a reputable camera dealer in your area, do not buy Nikon. Change.org is hosting an on-line petition to encourage Nikon to revert to its more consumer friendly policies of the past.
Excellent camera features including the Android OS v 2.3.x. Imagine having your android phone (without the phone of course) with a 16 MP camera attached to it. And a CMOS sensor, by the way. You can download many photo apps from the Google Play store to use with this camera, including another GeoTagging App. Now the glitch. Until Nikon issues a new firmware update that fixes this problem, you will need to rely on another GeoTagging App, not the one Nikon Camera uses in Settings to GeoTag its photos. The reason for this is that in two cameras s800c , the GPS Longitude written to the photo is very wrong from your location, while the Latitude is correct. In my case with both cameras, one I replaced, with 6 satellites above me me and goog reception, my photos taken in South Florida, Longitude 80 degrees, the Exif info Longitude records a position in the middle of China. Thats where all my photos get tagged with. No kidding.
So overall its a great camera that I will keep and use, without using Nikons GeoTag, but I do hope they issue a new firmware update for this.
Do not buy this if you are traveling on vacation and can't recharge it several times a day. Battery life is miserable, not more than three hours, and less if you forget to shut down. i finally improved battery life a bit by shutting down all apps, putting it on airplane mode, and deleting all data for many of the preloaded google apps (gps, maps etc kill your battery life). Camera features are great (rapid focus, crystal clear detail, quick cycle time even if flash is used) but this is a fine camera posing as an email platform, Utube player, navigation tool, etc. BTW, I do not understand why all of these apps run on the iPhone without depleting that battery. Very hard to figure out how to shut down preloaded apps, the downloadable manual simply refers you to a google site, which pretty much gives no information at all.
This camera rarely takes a decent picture. Regardless of what mode it is in. I would say 1 in 10 photos turn out just okay looking. Everything else is either blurry, under exposed or over exposed. . This has been the most frustrating camera I have ever used. I had more reliable results with the old polaroid cameras. Many wonderful memories have been missed due to this camera. I don't like lugging around my DSLR and multiple lens so I bought this camera. I guess I'll be back to lugging around the DSLR.
I had to return this product for repairs within a few months because the lens jammed in full Telephoto mode and would not retract. When I got it back, it would not focus properly and all pictures take outside were horribly overexposed. While it was working, I found the smart features of no value. My iPhone and iPad did everything the camera did and easier and better. I only got this camera because it had wirleless and GPS. Neither worked well. I swapped it out for a Coolpix S9500. Its features are similar, but I think closer to what I want. A Smart camera is just not valuable to me. I hope the S9500 proves more reliable. The wireless transfer of pictures is a little difficult, but the GPS seems to be working fine, and it is nice to have a geographical record of each picture you take.
The battery life is horrible I took 5 pictures and it drained battery i used it just to test it used it for a day I was dissatisfied and returned it and refunded
My husband got this camera for Christmas and I was quite excited to start using it, however from day one, I have been having issues with the battery life. I would turn it off, then try to turn it back on and realize that the battery had been drained because it was on "stand-by" instead of "off"... had to actually read the manual and figure out how to do that. Takes great pictures, connects to wifi and allows access to Facebook, e-mail and other apps that you can automatically download your pics to, including your iPhone, which I have not been able to do as of yet (keeps giving me an error...).
A bit frustrated with the product, might have to return it....
There are too many bugs currently to recommend using this camera. Camera often takes up to 30 SECONDS to be shoot ready coming out of standby Camera has been freezing regularly, will not come out of standby, will not go into shoot or playback mode immediately after coming out of standby, software freezes Camera has been reporting errors with the SD card, and then after re-powering, card will be fine Battery life barely lasts an hour under normal shooting conditions. Controls like ISO and flash mode are inconsistent over different shooting modes. EX, you cannot change ISO in monochrome shooting.
This camera is a great camera for somebody who wants a good camera. I love the features it has like the built in GPS, google play store so you could put games on your camera etc. great camera for the price. I'm writing the review on the camera right now!. I know people have said it takes long for the camera to come on at first it does but it hasn't taken long at all since.not a bulky big camera like some other cameras which I personally like. Very portable, the wifi runs fast and it takes great quality pictures!. Hope you like your nikon s800c like I do
I would recommend this camera to anyone who is familiar with smartphones. I myself have an android, though I found this camera really easy to use. I am a blogger and use Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram regularly and this camera is able to upload pictures straight to them using the local wifi. I bought this camera for mine and my daughter's first vacation and wanted a better way to share the pictures with my friends and family through social media while we were on our trip, instead of waiting until we got home. I have finally found the camera for me.
This camera is not worth any amount of money, let alone its steep price. It doesn't turn off properly so it is perpetually in standby mode, which drains the battery (even when all the wifi features are turned off). The battery dies after viewing pictures for 5 minutes and it tells you that yo have half a battery left when in picture mode, but then in standby mode, it tells you are at 10%. Super frustrating and I am going to try to return it. I only wish I hadn't brought it on vacation with us half way around the world!
My previous review was based on incomplete data. I have now been working on a custom camera app and found that the implementation of the Camera API in android only allows you to take 8MP pictures max (3264x2448 image size). The only point to an android camera is to unleash the army of android developers who will produce ingenious apps that will make android cameras sell like hotcakes. If android developers aren't going to be able to access the full capabilities of the camera, it becomes utterly pointless.
I am really livid with this product because although it takes great quick pictures, it is an awful experience at getting the pictures uploaded. You think because it has "wifi" it is quick and easy, not so. It doesn't stay connected to the wifi, so after you spend time and select the pictures to upload, it will state it cannot upload them. And then you have to go back in and re-select your pictures. I have just now spent an hour trying to upload my vacation pictures with no success after 6 trials.
I would say that it is not average. Although it has apps and music on it unlike normal cameras, it is extremely slow after using it for about a month and it sometimes freezes. I had used this camera for about 3 months before the place where you connect the cord to charge the camera was too damaged to charge the camera. The camera works fantastic to take pictures. If that is the main reason for the camera, I recommend it. If it isn't, I do not recommend it.
I got this camera earlier today, and I absolutely love it. My only thing though... i wish there was a way to get a data plan or something for the internet instead of just the wifi. got lost on my way from the city after buying this cam, and the GPS was useless. lol ohwells. awesome camera, really no other complaints.
We bought this camera for a trip to Italy. We were super excited about having maps on the camera instead of having to carry around the paper map. We also wanted to be able to do email while gone without bringing a ton of devices that we would have to keep track of. I added the places we wanted to go to my google places before we left, which you can layer over the maps. Unfortunately, you need wifi to pull those up. You can view the maps offline, but you have to be zoomed in on where you are going before you leave wifi if you want it to be at the level you need to not get lost. Even though it has a few drawbacks, overall, it is a very nifty little camera. Pros:
- Even though the mobile upload is slow, it works, which was nice when abroad since we only had 1 device.
- Amazing picture clarity even when moving the camera. The clarity when zooming is better than most as well. As a camera it is better than most.
- Touch capture is awesome (focuses where you touch instead of having to hold down the button which always makes me move the camera like crazy)
- Nice to have one device instead of two, especially when traveling internationally where my phone won't work for calls anyway Cons:
- Battery life drains fast when using wifi
- You can't use the camera while it charges. I found this extremely annoying. We would come back from a day out and want to plug the camera in to charge while using the internet, but you can't use it while it is charging. I've never had a phone/computer/tablet that you couldn't use while charging so I'm not sure why this one won't, but it is extremely annoying. This is the biggest drawback by far. I hope it can be fixed with a software update.
The sole reason I bought this camera was for wifi connectivity. Every once in a while it will actually connect but more times than not it doesn't connect or it disconnects itself. I saw that there was an upgrade in November 2012 that was supposed to fix this issue but it certainly didn't help mine.
The good: The OLED screen is visible outside in direct sunlight (not really high contrast, but definitely visible enough to use). The instant on feature that lets you use the camera while android boots up in the background seems to work really well, and it actually seems to be ready for shooting quicker than some other point and shoot cameras I've seen. The picture quality seems good to me, definitely better than your typical phone camera (I'm no photo expert, mind you, just going by subjective appearance). Android seems to be well integrated. I've used android apps to transfer photos and movies via wi-fi and bluetooth, and the specialty android camera app I'm working on is no buggier on the camera that it was on the phone I was using for development previously. The bad: You can't use it while it is charging. This puts a real crimp in the ability to use it for long periods of time in a fixed location where it would be perfectly possible to provide AC power for the charger. I have other Li-Ion battery devices that do not have this restriction. I have a feeling this is a marketing ploy to sell external chargers and spare batteries rather than having a legitimate technical reason. The annoying: No excuse for the non-standard USB connector. This means you have to drag around an extra cable just for the camera because no other cable you have will work on the camera. If anyone makes a small mini USB to Nikon USB adapter I could carry around instead of a whole extra cable, I'd love to buy one. Whatever the surface on the touchscreen is made of is a bigger fingerprint magnet than I have ever encountered before in any device, and things that clean other surfaces OK, just seem to smear this one.
i am a Nikon fan. I have 4 nikon camera: D800, D7000, cool pix s3500 and recently purchased s800c. The only weak point in s800 is it,s bluetooth setting. I couldn,t set it,s conection with other divices.
At all s800c is an excellent camera.don,t hasitate... Buy it.
I just purchased this camera yesterday and am anxious to learn how to use all the special features.
The camera seems to have a lot of potential...I love the GPS feature especially.
I am hoping to find plenty of helpful videos to get me started.

This movie sucked BAD
This took no talent at all. But it was made in 2003 and standards back then were ALOT lower. If you make something like this now, it MIGHT BARELY pass the portal with a 1.20 or something. All you did was took animations and started throwing them around eachother. No punching, blocking or anything like that. It took pratically no skill at all. The backgrounds were stretched and looked very ugly. Bad attempt at humor as it's been done many times before. It's 06 now 3 yeards since this came out. I hope you are better then you use to be because if you are like this movie now, you have no talent or skill in sprite flashing period. HMPH..You should be ashamed of yourself.
It was good and bad at the same time
Like the previous reviewer said...
"Just pictures flying around a screen" isn't that good.
You really could make it become better if there were proper animations while they were "flying around a screen".
Then the fight-scenes would be excellent! All those Luigi-clones throwing themselves upon Mario... that's actually good! ...but the way you did it it also looked goofy at the same time.
Also I missed some classic Mario-soundeffects...
...and that background-JPGs looked horrible.
Nothing very interesting. Just pictures flying around a screen. It didnt realy realate that well to the Matrix at all and theres too many of its kind that are far better.
not bad but it seem copied from another .
anyway the matrix is starting to get old now specially reloaded it seems everyone is doing it and want to do it. its just starting to loose its value
good. not great
creative, but didn't reach its potential
