4.0 out of 5 stars
on January 28, 2012
Format: Paperback
This book is a classic and an essential read for all doctors, and also patients, if possible.
Biochemical individuality is the concept that the nutritional and chemical make-up of each person is unique and that dietary and other needs therefore vary from person to person. People have unique biochemical profiles based upon their own genetic structure, nutrition, and environment. Some of these variables can also change over time.
The book `Biochemical Individuality' was first published by Dr. Roger J. Williams in 1956. Jeffrey S. Bland Ph.D., who writes the introduction for the 1988 reissue of the book, explains that Dr. Williams was the first to recognize all humans differ biochemically from others, and to recognize that nutritional status can influence the expression of genetic characteristics.
Jeffrey Bland Ph.D. writes,
"Aberrant genes do not, in and of themselves, cause disease. By and large their impact on an individual's health is minimal until the person is plunged into a harmful environment. . . . The list of common diseases which has its roots in this genetic soil is growing almost daily. . . . How many human ills will be added to the list is unknown, although some contend that almost every disorder compromising a full and healthy four score and ten years of life can be traced in one way or another to this genetic variability.
The first major breakthrough that resulted in this revolutionary change in thinking about the origin of disease was the recognition that we are much more different biochemically than was previously acknowledged.[2] Dr. Williams in Biochemical Individuality pioneered this revolution in thinking forty years ago. Genetic polymorphism is the term which has emerged in the past decade to describe this variation in function surrounding a specific genetic trait.
The second major breakthrough in thinking made by Dr. Williams is the recognition that nutritional status can influence the expression of genetic characteristics.[3] Once again Dr. Williams foresaw this important concept in Biochemical Individuality and set in motion research and discoveries over the past four decades that have transformed medicine. It is now well recognized that our genotype gets transformed into our phenotype as a consequence of nutritional, lifestyle and environmental factors which are important in determining our health patterns.
He pointed out that even identical twins could be different in their needs for optimal function based upon the fact that they developed in different environments in utero. Although identical twins share the same genes, their differing nutrition and developmental environments can result in different expression of the genes as they grow older."
The Weston A. Price Foundation explain,
""Biochemical individuality" is a subject worth clarifying. Coined by nutritional biochemist Roger Williams, PhD, the term refers to the fact that different people require different nutrients based on their unique genetic make-up. Ethnic and racial background figure in this concept as well. A diet that works for one may not work as well for someone else. As a practitioner, I've seen several clients following a vegetarian diet with severe health problems: obesity, candidiasis, hypothyroidism, cancer, diabetes, leaky gut syndrome, anemia and chronic fatigue. Because of the widespread rhetoric that a vegetarian diet is "always healthier" than a diet that includes meat or animal products, these people saw no reason to change their diet, even though that was the cause of their problems. What these people actually needed for optimal health was more animal foods and fats and fewer carbohydrates.
Further, due to peculiarities in genetics and individual biochemistry, some people simply cannot do a vegetarian diet because of such things as lectin intolerance and desaturating enzyme deficiencies. Lectins present in legumes, a prominent feature of vegetarian diets, are not tolerated by many people. Others have grain sensitivities, especially to gluten, or to grain proteins in general. Again, since grains are a major feature of vegetarian diets, such people cannot thrive on them."
People have different anatomy from one another: hearts and stomachs vary in size, shape, and physical location from person to person, for example.
(The images in the book of all the different shapes and sizes of stomachs are amazing to see!)
Drugs affect people in different ways due to differences in body chemistry. The differences between individuals can be quite large, and affect many different areas. When an individual's specific needs are not met, diseases may arise.
For a person to get ill from a bacterial or viral infection, the book explains, there must be a susceptibility in the host as well as an encounter with the particular bacteria or virus. Neither the health of the host nor the infective agent is `everything.'
Hereditary diseases are mostly not hereditary at all and what is inherited is a susceptibility for a certain disease. This means that we are not stuck with an unchangeable fate and can potentially limit our susceptibility by using a genetotrophic approach. (Making sure the body has all the raw materials it needs to function properly, and that higher than usual needs for certain nutrients are met.)
Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling explained that biochemical individuality, molecular disease, or environmental stress may increase the need for certain micronutrients, such as vitamin C, considerably above the RDA recommendation.
Jeffrey Bland Ph.D. explains,
"Molecular medicine was a term used by two-time Nobel laureate in chemistry and peace Linus Pauling, Ph.D., in his landmark article on the mechanism of production of sickle cell anemia published in 1949. [1] It defined a new perspective on the origin of disease based upon the recognition that specific mutations of the genes can create an altered "molecular environment" and therefore the modified physiological function associated with specific diseases.
The Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) which were developed by the Food and Nutrition Board of the National Research Council to establish the nutritional needs of "practically all healthy people" were not based upon the more recent information concerning the range of biochemical individuality among individuals. The RDAs that describe "normal" nutritional needs have questionable relevancy to the concept of optimal nutrition based upon individual needs. The contributions of Dr. Williams have opened the door for personally tailored nutritional and medical interventions that take biochemical individuality into account."
The concept of biochemical individuality seriously calls into question the logic of setting a single RDA for various vitamins and minerals for all people when the need for a certain nutrient may differ from one person to the next by 10, 30 or even 100 fold, or more.
Dr Williams' book explains that for a person to have all their lab values and other statistics in the `normal' range is itself abnormal and that we all have metabolic peculiarities, and probably more than a few.
Dr Williams writes that biochemical individuality explains why:
* Some of us are better at detoxifying drugs and chemicals
* The harmful amino acid homocysteine may or may not cause heart disease
* Cancer genes respond in different ways to diet and environment
* Some people are alcoholics or diabetics
* Low fat diets cause some people to gain weight
* One person needs higher levels of a nutrient than another to be healthy
Orthomolecular medicine expert Dr Abram Hoffer writes,
"There are many people whose diets are relatively good, but they still need extra nutrients due to biochemical individuality and many other factors, such as genetics or chronic deficiency. Orthomolecular and naturopathic therapists use optimum doses, which may be small or large. The important characteristic of the dose is not its size, but its efficacy - whether it is doing the job it is supposed to do to make the patient well."
The concept of biochemical individuality provides solid support for the notion that the most accurate test for some nutrients - such as magnesium or vitamin B12, for example - is the challenge test, rather than traditional blood tests. Watching how the body responds to a nutrient can tell a skilled practitioner far more about that person's need for a particular nutrient than a standard test which merely compares the patient's levels of a nutrient with what is considered `normal' for an average person. As this book explains, levels of B12 in healthy people can vary by 16 or 19 fold! More of certain nutrients is also needed during illness.
Extensive nutritional testing is also supported by the concept of biochemical individuality. Books such as Detoxify or Die by Dr Sherry Rogers list some of the cutting edge tests which are currently available and how they should be interpreted and the information acted upon, to improve health.
This book was fascinating to read.
I found it overall quite easy to read as well though I must admit I skipped some of the scientifically dense paragraphs that went into specifics about particular abnormalities.
The message that the patient - doctor relationship and the doctor listening to the patient and treating them as an individual is of primary importance in good health care, is just as timely today as when this book was first published, if not far more so. A 'one size fits all' approach is not very helpful and nor is slavishly adhering to the importance of 'normal' lab values and ignoring all other evidence.

Biochemical Individuality
Cassandra Barnes
on February 28, 2001
Format: Paperback
Biochemical Individuality was first published by Dr. Roger J. Williams in 1956. It has just been reissued with a new introduction by Jeffrey S. Bland, Ph.D. Dr. Bland explains that Dr. Williams was the first to recognize all humans differ biochemically from others. He says that Dr. Williams was also the first to recognize that "nutritional status can influence the expression of genetic characteristics."
Dr. Williams conducted his own studies, as well as drawing on the work of others, to show that each of us is different. One chapter describes differences in anatomy, outlining how even such vital organs as hearts and stomachs vary in size, shape, and physical location from person to person.
The chapter on pharmacology explains how, even though the chemistry of each is known, drugs effect people in different ways, due to differences in body chemistry. That's why what works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another.
Dr. Williams says that "while the same physical mechanisms and the same metabolic processes are operating in all human bodies, the structures are sufficiently diverse [that] the sum total of all the reactions taking place in one individual's body may be very different from those taking place in the body of another individual of the same age, sex, and body size."
His observations led Dr. Williams to theorize that each individual also had unique nutritional needs, and that determining and meeting those needs would help combat disease.
Although written in academic language, Biochemical Individuality is of interest all readers who recognize "there is no such thing as a truly 'normal' individual" and that people have "unique biochemical profiles based upon their own genetic structure, nutrition, and environment."

A Nutrition Classic That Everyone Should Read
on March 19, 1999
Format: Paperback
This is one of the most important books written in the history of nutrition. A must for everyone who wants to appreciate how one diet, one supplement regime, and one food pyramid do not fit all. We all have greatly differing needs, and Dr. Williams documents all of this eloquently and convincingly. This book should be read by everyone who cares about their health. It will make them realize that only when they understand their individual nutrition needs and meet them can they have optimal health. Thank you, Keats, for reprinting this timeless book!

Unearthly boring to read, but the information... Dr. Williams was well ahead of his time. Every student of Nutrition should read and understand his works to understand how Nutrition works. I have no idea why they did not recommend this book to me when I was in University studying Nutrition.

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 5750 Silent Cell & HD 5570 OC Video Cards
Temperature Tests
With the TES 1326 Infrared Thermometer literally in hand we found ourselves getting real-world temperatures from the products we test at load (3D clock speeds).
There are two places we pull temperature from - the back of the card directly behind the core and if the card is dual slot and has an exhaust point we also pull a temperate from there, as seen in the picture.
Very good numbers from both cards; the big fan does wonders on the HD 5570 and even though the HD 5750 is a passive cooled card, its heat numbers are fantastic.

Skip to comments.Researchers May Remake Neanderthal DNA
Posted on 06/25/2007 8:51:04 PM PDT by anymouse
click here to read article
"Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should."
"But it is "sample intensive," he said, and he isn't sure enough DNA is available to complete the work. "
That's my thoughts too...there's just not enough undamaged dna.
I'm expecting somebody holding my "donor card" to knock on my door any day now, ready to call the chit. I could save them a lot of lab time by just giving them a sample.
And we can display them! We call it, oh, I don't know, Quaternary Park, maybe...
Unless they decide to raise him in a cave with no language I would suspect that the "neanderthal" will turn into an unrecognizable part of society, except for maybe the extra large forehead, smaller stature, etc. that some other "moderns" have. I wonder if his vocal chords are developed enough to achieve proper speaking or would he just be normal, etc.
I like Man vs. Wild and Survivorman, I would like to see how he would fare, but that would be cruel, denying him an ipod and all that.
And the point of doing this would be?
I'm not being sarcastic, I'm genuinely curious. I assume it's already been discussed...and there's probably an answer that fits the dogma, I just don't know what it is.
To hunt mammoths and cave bears.
Where've ya been for the last couple of decades, young lady?
I'm not being sarcastic, I'm genuinely curious. I assume it's already been discussed...and there's probably an answer that fits the dogma, I just don't know what it is.
I haven't seen it addressed probably for the simple reason that this is the first I've seen it mentioned, that there was an effort to reconstruct the DNA. What would you consider that needs to be reconciled? Reconciled with what?
Personally, I think it's foolish, no matter what the creature. Since there's no way anyone can possibly KNOW for sure what the complete DNA from any fossil is, there's no way anyone can be sure that what they're getting is genuine. There's no knowing what damage might be done to the DNA in the process and what the consequences of THAT might be.
If the Neanderthal is a failed species, what's the point of trying to bring it back? What do they plan on doing with it?
Not milking the government cow doing research, obviously.
Who knows? However i am sure a convenient answer would sooner or later be whittled out.
It took but the first post for the GEICO caveman to show up. Good work!!
Please FREEPMAIL me if you want on or off the
"Gods, Graves, Glyphs" PING list or GGG weekly digest

Gods, Graves, Glyphs (alpha order)
I have a sneaking suspicion that there's not much difference between us and them. I think they are just a unique combination of physical traits that are not so common today. I'd like to see a search of existing humans for neandertal like traits. THen using composite photography, combine all the best ones into one photograph. I bet you could "make" a neandertal out of living people in this manner.
The Neandertal EnigmaFrayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]
by James Shreeve
Redheads 'are neanderthal' [Free Republic]
London - Red hair may be the genetic legacy of Neanderthals...
not sure why .....
Job 3:8 May those who curse days curse that day, those who are ready to rouse Leviathan.
Job 41:1 "Can you pull in the leviathan with a fishhook or tie down his tongue with a rope?
Psalm 74:14 It was you who crushed the heads of Leviathan and gave him as food to the creatures of the desert.
Psalm 104:26 There the ships go to and fro, and the leviathan, which you formed to frolic there.
Isaiah 27:1 [ Deliverance of Israel ] In that day, the LORD will punish with his sword, his fierce, great and powerful sword, Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent; he will slay the monster of the sea
yep - prolly just one of them big squids (sarc)
Then theres the question of the age of creation -was it six literal - or six periods ?.......my money is on epochs
Composite photography when we have DNA?????
You have got to be kidding!
Have you ever studied Neanderthals, or evolution? Or forensics?
DNA is pretty good evidence, while things like you suggest are so subjective they are pretty much useless last resorts.
My biggest reason however is the the third one ....whether the Earth was created 6,000 years ago (as some say), or 10,000 years ago (as some Young Earth Creationists pushed back the 6K date when it didn't match with some discoveries that were older than 6K yrs), or eons ago (my personal belief) doesn't matter much. As a Christian what i adhere to is a personal belief in Christ and relationship with him. To me that is what matters ....not whether Adam walked with T-rex (which is just plain dumb .....particularly when i heard that one of the Creationist museums claimed that the reason T-rex had sharp teeth in a perfect world was so that it could eat fruit better!!!! Or the fact that some years back there was an expedition by some Young Earthers to Lake Tele in the Congo to investigate claims of some sort of Loch Ness type lake monster - read 'dinosaur' - that lived there ....in a bid to show that if 'dinosaurs' still exist today then science is wrong on other things too). To me all that is nonsense ....here are far more important things.
Oh, and they never did get any real evidence of that Lake Tele monster. Guess Loch Ness in Scotland is always open for 'research.'
THe photo idea is just a starting point. Naturally I'd like to see the same thing attempted with DNA fragments of current living humans.
I just hope the cave bear doesn't eat the cave man.
I dont think they intend to make a neanderthal. They just want to sequence its DNA (and that of mammoth et al). This is a lab job with lots of pipettes and mini test tubes and gel electrophoresis. The aim is to determine relationships between species.
I think its going to be very difficult to do. DNA of hominid species is very, very similar anyway - it's going to be hard, especially with samples that may be damaged, to get definite genetic markers.
"Neanderthals did not breed with cromagnon man. Our DNA doesnt match Neanderthals DNA. Chimps do not breed with monkeys, or gorillas. So why would Neanderthals breed with Cromagnon man?"
Well, no-one knows if Neanderthal man was a separate species or just a sub race, and no-one knows how closely related our DNA and theirs is. That's sort of what they are trying to find out here...
Horses can breed with donkeys -- you end up with an infertile mule. Perhaps they could breed, but with infertile offspring.
Are We Not Men???
(we are devo)
Are We Not Men!?!
Me barbarian!
I suppose they would need to create the DNA before they would feel a need to reconcile anything, if I understood what you were asking. I am not sure the reconstruction is an actual one and perhaps it will be in the form of a computer model?
I really don't know why they feel they need to go to all this trouble. Mr. Fairview already exists; they could just study him. I promise you, there's very little difference between Mr. Fairview and other Neanderthals except frequency of showers.
This is excellent news! Since some scientists seem hellbent on recreating dinosaurs from DNA, it's only appropriate that we also have cavemen around who know how to deal with them.
BACK TO THE FUTURE! sez I
I was thinking more on the line of the images I remember of Barbara Bach in a fur bikini. Now that was a cave person.
Likewise, scientific belief does not constitute a religion, or faith, unto itself
John Kerry, paging Senator John Kerry ...
Rabbi Isaac of Acco remarkably calculated the universe's age as 15 billion years old, in the 13th century. It's only (some) Christians who seem to have a problem with an old universe/old earth.
doesnt literalism drive you nuts
You're welcome. A few years back, I read every word on every link in that article. JimRob won't let me post it as a stand-alone article. That was the only post I ever made that got pulled...wouldn't explain why either.
BTW, the Zana story was fascinating. Why couldn't some very isolated Neanderthal groups survive to recent times?
The thing I always thought was odd was that Genesis was written by Jews, but Christians don't believe Jews when they say what it means.
Looks like the 'Hobbits' on Flores survived up to about 12k years ago. I'm presently reading the book, A New Human about the Hobbits and the author says these guys are more ancient than Homo-Erectus or Neanderthals. The next chapter in the book is titled: Out Of Asia. Could get interesting.
BTW, human artifacts on Flores date to 840,000 years ago.
Sure raises some interesting questions!
"And the point of doing this would be?"
To annoy creationists?
840,000 or 84,000?
"Homo Floresiensis (Flores Man) who lived 93000 B.C. to 10000 B.C. is discovered "
You mean it doesnt deal with Gods omnipotence and Creation, Retribution theology, Original sin and the lineage of Noah ?
hey - the NT was written by Jews - and they still don't beleieve it

Schaeuble Says Germany Continuing Growth-Friendly Policies
German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said the budget plan for 2013 shows the government is continuing its "policy of growth-friendly deficit reduction."
Chancellor Angela Merkel's Cabinet approved a spending plan today that balances Germany's federal budget three years earlier than required by its own rules. Ministers backed the 2013 draft budget and a spending blueprint through 2016.
Germany's net federal borrowing will decline from 18.8 billion euros ($23.6 billion) next year to 13.1 billion euros in 2014, then 4.7 billion euros in 2015 before touching zero in 2016, according to the plan presented by the Finance Ministry on June 22, which now goes to parliament.
The so-called structural deficit of the federal budget will shrink to 0.35 percent of gross domestic product next year, equal to the limit set in Germany's national debt-reduction rules, according to the plan.

Air Jordan 1
The Air Jordan line revolutionized the sneaker game, and the first Air Jordan dropped a bombshell on sneakerheads everywhere when it was originally released.
Good list…but HOW IN THE HELL!!! do u not include the allen iverson's reebok question?…everbody and their mother had those!
Love The List BUT those Griffey's are notably missing….. #ImJustSaying…. Lol 🙂
Good list but what about the jason kidds. The foamposites. The grant hills.
no chucks?
no converse weapons?
no shell toes?
thats the same thing im saying. they got kobes crazy 8s and that and not reebok questions? iverson's shoes were 2nd in popularity for an athlete signuatre shoes only to jordans and they dont have not one of his shoes up there smh.
Barkley's was clean too, maybe not as sought out and they could have had better colors when they re-released them and release more than than just the one style (as i remember)
Agree…the Reebok Questions have got to make the list!!! They were being sold YEARS after the original release—not as a re-release, they just kept them coming in different colors year after year!
How do the McFly's make this list!?! Didn't we use to clown shoes that lit up (like the old LA Gears)??? Now you got them on a "must have" list…C'Mon Son! And, the price of them makes them unavailable to even the most on point sneakerhead.

Rangers blow out Bolts
New York nets three in the first and two more in the second
Published: Wednesday, January 20, 2010 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 at 10:32 p.m.
NEW YORK - Vinny Prospal had a goal and assist in New York's big first period, and linemate Marian Gaborik tied a career high with four assists as the Rangers used their suddenly resurgent offense to overpower the Tampa Bay Lightning 8-2 on Tuesday night.
New York, which scored a total of five goals in five games before Sunday's 6-2 home win against Montreal, netted three goals in the first period and two more in the second against the tired Lightning -- chasing goalie Antero Niittymaki from the net.
Brandon Dubinsky started his team's biggest scoring night of the season with a power-play tally just 1:26 in, and Prospal and Chris Drury followed to give the Rangers a 3-1 lead after the first period. Dan Girardi and Enver Lisin scored in the second as New York went ahead 5-1 despite recording only 20 shots on Niittymaki.
Including the final two periods of the win on Sunday and the first one on Monday, the Rangers scored three times in three straight periods. Eight players had goals, and 16 of New York's 18 skaters had at least one point. The Rangers came in averaging just over 2.5 goals a game.
Rangers defenseman Marc Staal, Aaron Voros -- during a power play -- and Christopher Higgins pushed the Rangers' lead to 8-2 in the third period against backup goalie Dustin Tokarski. Voros' goal was his first in 52 games, dating to Nov. 28, 2008. New York scored at least six goals at home in consecutive games for the first time since November 2003.
Henrik Lundqvist made 21 saves for his 22nd win. He got the better of Niittymaki in a rematch of the 2006 Olympic gold medal game also won by Lundqvist and Sweden over Finland.

The driver was incredible! This pickup had a few bumps in the road but he handle it with very professionally.
Terrific! Easy! Reliable! Super friendly!
Very good service at a busy time of year. No waiting to drop others off at hotels, just straight to ours. Definately recommended.
Aside from confusion initially linking up with the driver, which was due to the arrival crowd in Cancun and not the driver's fault, it was a great experience. They got us to the van, were greeted with a cold water and cold Corona, and quick ride straight to the hotel. We figured out the return trip time right on the van, and they were at the hotel at the appointed time on departure day. Also with a cold water. Straight to the airport in plenty of time for departure. Cheaper than using hotel service, didn't have to deal with waiting for anyone else, and didn't have to deal with taxis. Would definitely use again.
Extremely professional, friendly and clean van!
Lovely driver. Car on time and spotless. Much better than group transfer. Worth the extra
Excellent and professional on time service. Curtious and friendly staff at the airport and driver.
After the chaos at Cancun airport on our arrival it was great to see the happy, smiling face of our driver! The return trip was just as smooth. Excellent all round
On time and vey friendly. I liked having my private car service. After waiting on line for over an hour I was ready to go straight to my hotel. No stops
Very friendly drivers!!
Excellent Service to and from airport!
Both pick up from airport and hotel were on time and enjoyable.
Very good way to avoid having to entertain offers beyond just needing a ride from the airport to your destination. Prompt, quality of service were appreciated.
The driver was on time for both pick up at airport and back to the airport. The van itself was nice and comfortable with lots of room.
Pat United States of ...
Well worth it, after a long day of traveling! Nice to be greeted by a friendly face and a welcome drink. Greeter and driver were very patient in waiting for my daughter to get through customs hers and two other flights came through customs at the exact same time, so there was a significant delay.
Excellent service, very clean and new vans for both pick up and drop off. We were greeted at the airport by an english-speaking representative with a sign that had our name on it. He took us directly to meet our driver. Only one suggestion, make sure you call in advance to set up your pick up from your hotel. I didn't have any problem setting that up but it was necessary to make the call. Highly recommended and made the trip to/from the airport seamless and comfortable. A great way to start out the trip, especially with it being our first time in Cancun.
Both connections were done efficiently. Pickup was done is an SUV that was clean. Cold water offered by drivers who were courteous and helpful. Would definitely book this transfer again.
We were very pleased with these airport transfers. Our ride was waiting for us as soon as we exited the airport, and he took us straight to our hotel. When they picked us up from the hotel on our last day, they arrived when they said they would, and we were on our way. We very much appreciated having the transfers arranged ahead of time.
tour bus driver very courteous and welcoming.
got the vacation started on a nice vibe !!!
When we arrived at the airport David was waiting for us with a sign with our name on it. He was very friendly, courteous, and professional. He even had a coiler full of drinks iced down for us. On the return trip he arrived promptly at the pick up time. The round trip was seamless and convenient. Would definitely use again and recommend.
We had an amazing driver pick us up from the Cancun Airport. He truly made us feel welcome to a city we've never been before. He greeted us with ice cold bottled waters and fascinating legends about the Mayan culture. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and neighboring towns. He was outgoing and laid back. He offered to take us to a taco shop or a grocery store before being dropped off at our hotel as he was not in a rush. Cancun experts are extremely professional and courteous. We will definitely be booking with them next time we go to Cancun.
Cat USA
Jorge, our driver, was amazing! He was there waiting for us when we arrived and we left immediately in our very own Viator branded van, which was clean and air-conditioned. He also had beverages available in the van for our 30 min drive to our hotel, which was much appreciated after being on an airplane. He even went above and beyond and took us to a super-market to stock up on snacks before we got to our hotel which we definitely didn't expect from this service. Even though he says his English isn't good, Jorge speaks English very well and can help with any questions you may have. The transfer back to the airport when we left was just as seamless. We had confirmed our pickup time with Jorge when he dropped us off at the hotel on our arrival, and he was there exactly on time to pick us up for our departure. Would book with this company again in an instant. Definitely recommend.
AlexB United Kingdom
Perfect, hassle-free transfer. Our Viator-branded minivan was clean, air-conditioned, spacious and, most importantly, there on time! Very friendly service, too.
Drivers to the hotel and returning to the airport were personable and friendly. Each explained the history of the city and answered all of our questions. Definitely an A from both my wife and myself
Amy P USA
This airport transfer was relatively seamless. We met an agent outside the terminal who instructed us to wait in a specific area. Although we would have preferred not to wait for 10 minutes for prearranged transportation, it ultimately was not too big of a deal. On the return trip to the airport, the driver, Loredo, arrived early. He was pleasant and professional and transported us to the airport in a timely fashion.

DP1 manual focus control wheel problem
Apr 3, 2011
Just wondered if anyone else has had problems with the manual focus wheel. Mine no longer works. For no apparent reason it just went out, along with AF. It seems to be locked on 2 meters or so. The wheel moves, and moves the gauge, however, I hear no internal focusing noise. All my photos at infinity are now blurry.
I've been happy with the camera up until now. I've only taken about 2,500 photos with it. If anybody could share some insight, I'd appreciate it. Thanks

To the editor: I recently attended the Brunswick County Health Department meeting to witness discussion of the recent purchase of a "refurbished" gas chamber.
The mere word "gas chamber" angers most civilized people. After all, it has been outlawed as inhumane for the most monstrous of human criminals.
To the editor We would like to begin this letter by saying we are disappointed in the actions of one or more individuals that vandalized a home on Governors Road in Winnabow on Saturday, Dec. 19.
To let those of you know a little about this particular home, every holiday of the year is celebrated with a slew of inflated yard ornaments. This family spends a great deal of time and money every year to make all of our holidays a little brighter.
To the editor: In last week's Beacon, Rich Cerrato charged the old council in Sunset Beach as being arrogant in their vote to appoint Bob Bobinski as chairman of the town's ABC Board.
What we did was appoint the most qualified candidate after interviewing each one. Don't believe me? Just ask the other people, including new council members who were present at the interviews.
For many, the holiday season is a time filled with joy. From gatherings of friends and family to participation in religious and civic activities, the months of November and December provide much to do.
But the holidays can also be an unfortunate time—a time when ne'er-do-wells are all too intent on dashing holiday spirits.
To the editor: It is hard to believe here in America I have to fear oppression and theft of my property rights from a local government. A government that was formed in fear they would be annexed is now in the process of performing that same atrocity on its less prosperous neighbors.
The town that already brags they have more than $100 million in amenities feels the need to step on a handful of people who have little more than a will to fight.
Carolina Shores Mayor Stephen Selby said recently the town is at a point of "forgiveness and forgetfulness…We're starting new and afresh now. Those days are behind us."
Seems to us those days are yet behind the folks at Carolina Shores. Their antics of discussing things in closed session that should be discussed openly continue.
'Tis the season for holiday festivities, parties and gift giving.
It's also the season for dangerous highways, as drivers who partake in libations bring the ho-ho-ho happiness of spirit consumption directly onto area roads.
In Brunswick County, law enforcement officers stay busy year-round with traffic stops and DWI checkpoints. It only gets worse this time of year.
To the editor: As I write this letter, Aetna has just announced it will drop more than 600,000 folks from its rolls so they can retain their profit margin.

I actually drilled 8 holes this turned out to be 4 to many. The position of the holes will be a preference. I'll try and post a video.This weekend (02/05/2010) we received approximately 2 feet of snow. For some parts of the country this isn't alot of snow, but for the Washington DC, metro area this is enough to stop everything. I needed a way to make sure if something happened (I have three kids and a wife) and I needed to get to the main road I could (since my absent HOA hasn't plowed the street at least once yet) or just an excuse to make something with my son. I needed some snowshoes, every step I took, I sank into the snow. I'm sure there are many ways of doing this, however this is what I came up with using the materials in hand. While researching diy snowshoes, alot of the options out there involved street signs, or twigs. I needed to be able to make a set of shoes without going to the home center, and using only materials I already had on hand.For this instructable you will need:2 x pieces of 3/4 plywood cut to a 12" x 24" (I only had 3/4" plywood, you could use something thinner).Drill 3/8" bitSaw: reciprocal, jig, circular, or DremelString basic nylon, so long as it is strong (2 x 4' pieces)Simple knot abilityFirst, I needed a template, I went with a modified rectangle. I had a sheet of foam board from one of my sons last projects, but one could easily use a sheet of newspaper or wing it. I choose a template size of 12" x 24" that seemed large enough for me. I weight approx 230lbs so I figured this would distribute my weight better than my size 14 boot. The notches are all 3" from their respective edges.WOW, I suppose you could use pizza boxes. If you use the same pattern you will need something to provide support, understanding they won't last long with the water and paper mixing. I suppose you could use scraps of wood or hangers sandwiched between two sheets of pizza box. In my minds I I see two pieces of stiff material running along where the foot is positioned, with two pieces of this same stiff material running across connected with tape. Then sandwiching the whole thing between two pizza boxes, then the bright yarn binding holding each foot to each snow shoe. Air Jordan 5 3Lab5,The MLB All Star Game turned into a Derek Jeter pre retirement party Tuesday. With the New York Yankees shortstop set to call it quits at season's end, all eyes were on the future Hall of Fame player and he delivered the goods in his final Midsummer Classic. Jeter snagged it on a diving play and fired it to first base. McCutchen beat the throw, but just barely (he's an all star for a reason). In the bottom of the inning, Jeter led off with a double down the right field line. The best part? A clearly audible fan was chanting "O VER RA TED!" and the shortstop responded with the big hit. To put a cap on his first inning, Jeter scored the game's first run on a triple by Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout. We later learned that St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright gave Jeter a couple of free shots. Adam Wainwright admitted he grooved a fastball to Derek Jeter in the first: was gonna give him a couple pipe shots. the entire play was predicted by MLB Network's Greg Amsinger. Speaking with Trout during the pre game festivities, Amsinger jokingly said Jeter would be on second base and Trout would bring him home with a triple. Weird! Bonus: Check out these Nike trout themed cleats the outfielder wore during the game. Get it? Because his name is also a fish. A big catch in the City of Lakes. The Nike Lunar Vapor Trout LE brings a fresh flavor to Minnesota. The folks at ESPN's SportsNation put together the following lineup of celebrities the shortstop has gone around the bases with. Now that's a quality roster. " Here's a look at Derek Jeter's dating diamond. Now this is an All star lineup. SO LONG, FAREWELL American League manager John Farrell waited until his squad took the field in the fourth inning before taking out Jeter so that the legendary shortstop could have a proper good bye. Jeter received a standing ovation and tipped his cap to the crowd before entering the dugout. After hugging each player he went out for a curtain call.
Free Shipping Authentic Air Jordan 5 3Lab5,Air Jordan 5Lab3 Silver Fabulous views some of the best i've seen in this park of NY. The beginning is a straight very steep climb, hand over hand pushing your way up. Once at the top you can take an easier way down then you went up or you can continue on the white trail which will take to a a few others trail or to the fire tower which is what we did. This was much further then we thought it would be. Once we got to the tower we were pretty tried and running low on water which was worried sum because we still had to decent back down on the yellow to breakneck train station. Our decent was confusing and not marked clear enough, we made some wrong turns which ate up time. Bring more water then you think. Give youself more time then you think you will need. The best part of this hike is the beginning assent to the top. Not sure if is worth going to the tower from breakneck. All in all this is a strenuous hike with rewarding views which are worth it! I'm pretty sure I made the first leg of this hike harder than it should have been. My pay off was mind blowing views of the Hudson River and West Point. Once I reached the top of the ridge I made my way down through the woods (losing the trail at one point and ending up on a small creek). All in all a great and challenging hike just a quick train ride from NYC, I look forward to doing it again in the near future. This trail is just the right amont of strenuous for the intermediate hiker. The steep ascent at the beginning can be tackled either by planning or force, depending on whether you prefer a rounded out path or to go straight up the boulders. Beautiful views of the river and surrounding Bear Mountain. Not for one who is afraid of heights. Unfortunately the trail guide is too vague and the map unhelpful. At the beginning of the Breakneck trail head (at the north end of the tunnel on the Hudson river side) you will see a box nailed onto the side of a tree. It also provides blaze colors for each of the mapped trails; extremely helpful. Starting on the white trail at the north of end the tunnel, the first intersecting trail will be yellow heading right. This trail does switchbacks down to the base of the mountain, where it intersects with the red trail on the right. The red trail ends at the south end of the tunnel. For perspective, the intersection of the yellow and white trails from the start of the white trail to is about twice the distance from the start of the whtie trail to the American flag/POW flag (this flag will be obvious if you are walking/driving to the tunnel). I intended to loop back through the Breakneck Bypass trail but in talking with some other hikers on the trail it is apparently a lot farther than heading back on yellow. If you are using this trail guide, let me add some much needed information for MetroNorth users to Breakneck Ridge Station stop. The trail lists two trail heads. We looked for the yellow trail, since we wanted an easier ascent up. The directions in this guide are so vague and inaccurate to that trail head. When you get off the train, walk towards the tunnel til you see the parking lot on the left. Continue to walk through the tunnel from the road, and it is supposedly much further up the road. We never found it even asking an organized trail leader who told us it was "just on the other side of the tunnel". Later, when he saw us on the white blazed trail ascent and I told him I couldn't find the trail head he said, "Oh, you have to go way past the tunnel, to the hotel". I consider myself an intermediate hiker. I would say the ascent up would be at the very advanced end of intermediate advanced. There were two times when it bordered on being more like rock climbing. But it was a great hike to Cold Spring and I would highly recommend it! However, unless you are an intermediate level hiker with good hiking boots, do not attempt the rocky ascent. Great trail with excellent views of the Hudsen River, the "Gunks", with the prominant Tower, and Catskills. A challenge with the plastic trail markers, particularly the Yellow, as they have been washed out by the sun and appear white. Not such a great thing when there are white marked trails in the area. The trail may be difficult for beginners and those not used to winter hiking, as some of the descents are tricky. The wind twisted trunk of a now dead tree is rather beautiful on the prominace of Sugarloaf overlooking the Ridge behind it and Storm King across the Hudsen. This is ONE OF THE BEST hikes I have ever taken. The rock scrambles are something I enjoy immensely! For a while it seems that you will never reach the top. The views of the Hudson in both directions and across to Storm King are most rewarding! We stopped at Sunset Point and returned by the Wilkinson Trail. I will return to complete the trek to the fire tower. The Wilkinson Trail from Sugarloaf down to the parking area is STEEP at times and makes an interesting descent. This trail is VERY popular. Trying to hike on a weekday might be a good idea. As you head north on Rt. 9D and go through the tunnel there will be two parking areas on your left. One right after the tunnel is small, a larger one is up ahead. There are two trailheads. The Wilkenson Trail (yellow blaze) is to the north and the Breakneck Trail (white blaze) is to the south. Cross the street to get to the Wilkenson Trail. Stay on the same side of the road as the parking areas to get to the Breakneck Trail. You will cross over the train and road tunnel as you hike up this trail. The Wilkenson Trail acsends steeply through forest on a dirt and rocky trail but views along the way are limited due to the canopy. The Breackneck Trail ascends much more rapidly to the point of hand over hand rock scrambling. Views of the Hudson come quicker along this trail. Me and my wife have done this trail twice, on 7/1/07 and 7/15/07, plan on doing it again tomorrow 7/22. We love this trail, especially the intial rock scramble which is a challenging, but doable climb up. We have yet to cover the whole trail as outlined in this guide. We got to withing 1 mile of the Beacon Tower the first time out, but turned back due to the fact that it was getting late and we figured it would take time to get back. Second time out we just decedided to do the intitial rock scramble and hike back down the Breakneck Bypass Trail. That in itself is a great hike. We will do the full hike by the end of fall. Amazing Hike! Took the scramble up (White blaze trail)! It is as advertised steep be prepared to use all fours/rock climb in parts. Definitely a great work out and the views are definitely worth it! Be careful to wear appropriate shoes and watch where you're going! There were a few drop offs that could freak out the faint hearted (we actually had to go around a woman sprawled on a very steep part of the trail who refused to move due to fear)! Also, definitely bring plenty of water! I went through almost 2 liters of water and a Gatorade bottle. And wear sunblock it's very easy to burn the backs of your shoulders going up. Definitely recommend continuing on the white trail on to the blue trail but be aware that there's a bit of overgrowth and the white trail isn't as well marked in parts. It eventually gets better, but there is that moment of confusion! Also, watch for the split to the blue trail it could be easily missed. Due to time constraints, we followed the more direct blue trail (which turns red at one point, and then back to blue) down to Cold Spring where we stopped in for a bit of food and drink! Nice afternoon hike we were two people, making good time on a crowded trail took us about 4.5 hours with a few stops in between. Just be careful if you are taking the red trail to the end one of the later markers is not as visible as others, and if you miss it, you will continue along a path that looks very much like the trail but is, in fact, not! Make sure to wear good bug spray and take lots of water! If you head north after the hike, make sure to stop at the little ice cream store in Beacon a well deserved reward after you finish! The first mile of this trail with without a doubt one of the best trails anywhere. It's fun, with outstanding views and beautiful open air. I have now hiked this trail three times and have taken different routes down each time. It is possible to make Breakneck into an all day 10 mile hike with multiple inclines and declines, or to make it into a quick 2 hour tour by heading down at one of several cutoffs. Unfortunately both side and back routes are relatively poorly marked. Still, I would recommend this trail to anyone seeking a fabulous outdoors experience especially so in that it is within an hours drive of Central Park! Did not have time to complete entire trail, but managed to complete about 1/3 of hike. There is parking along the highway and a lot which is beside the Hudson and railroad tracks. The trail begins with steep climbing over rocks. You quickly encounter pretty views over the Hudson valley. The initial portions of the trail reveal signs of its popularity and traffic, with graffiti and miscellaneous pieces of litter. The deeper one travels into the forest along the ridge, the better the natural experience. It is diifcult to believe civilization is nearby on either side of the ridge (Beacon to the north and Cold Spring in the south). I would advise taking a different return trail (Breakneck Loop trail if I recall correctly)) in order to avoid steep downward climbs. The ease of visit from NYC combined with excellent views of the Hudson and variety of flora (including sweet blueberries) make it a very satisfying hike. as always Breakneck is a thrilling hike/ scramble. it's the most exciting ascent in the Hudson Highlands has some of the excitement of an Adirondack High Peak or White Mtn climb. you can [ i do] make it evn more exciting by taking the more exposed routes doing some short rock scrambles. i do this one 10 15 times a year in all seasons except when it's very icy. the round trip up the ridge NW [left]down the red trail or further along down through an old woods road, short bushwack to the same trail is a great 1/2 day experience. bob meyer What I find most attractive about this trail is that one can get to it by Metro North from Grand Central Station. On Saturday and Sunday the first two trains leaving the station stop at a whistle stop called Breakneck. The trail begins on the other side of the road next to the tracks. The trail is marked. Actually there are two ways to hike Breakneck Ridge. The Red Breakneck Trail markers and the Yellow Wilkilson Trail. The Yellow trail is easyer and less crowded. One can hang out on Breakneck and from where you got off catch the late trains back to NYc or if you are really up to it hike back to Cold Spring. Good energetic trail. Excellent ability to get there from Grand Central for a day trip. 1st part steep and rocky (couple of bits may give those without a head for heights a brief moment of doubt). Once past the first rise it turns into a good ramble. The trail is in good condition and easy to follow. The fall views, even on a windy overcast day, were great. All in all a good workout for the thighs and rewarding views. A couple of mile hike to Cold Spring gives a better timetable for a return to GCS and some random shops and a couple of bars. If you keep up a fair pace the trail is about 5 hours Great day hike, especially for easy access from NYC. You can take Metro North right to the "Breakneck Ridge" stop (there are, I believe, about two trains that stop there in the morning and two returning trains in the evening on the weekends). One trail head is just south of the train stop though the train makes for a very crowded trail because everyone debarks the train at once. Also, be far warned that the trail involves scrambling up rocks it is infamous for skinning people's knees. If you are uncomfortable with heights, don't bother with Breakneck. Other than being far too crowded, the trail offers sumptuous views of Storm King and the Hudson (including a mysterious decrepit castle on an island in the river). The hawks made a nice showing when I was there, riding rising thermals up and around the hills. If you scrambled up the white blazed trail south of the train stop, an easier red blazed trail will take you down to the bottom, instead of scrambling back down the boulders (the red trail can easily be found without map, just by continuing along the white blazed trail). Go there in peak fall foilage, fill your nalgene with wine, and find a ledge to chill out on. Air Jordan 5 3Lab5 Despite the mild weather Madison experienced earlier this winter, it looks like there will be plenty of ice on Lake Mendota off the Memorial Union Terrace for the Kites on Ice festival Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 7 8. As many as 80,000 people are expected to visit campus to see top kite fliers exhibit their skills. on both days, will include team kite flying, kite skiing, ground displays, a wind garden, giant kites, a skating rink and more. The Hoofers will hold their winter carnival on the lake as well; the event includes a student broomball tournament, ice golf and ice diving demonstrations. Kite making workshops, displays, kite flying, programs and exhibits will be held inside the Union. Zoology professor emeritus John Magnuson will present "The Physics of Ice." C. Allen Wortley, professor emeritus of engineering professional development, will present "Ice is Nice." Food service will be available indoors and in the hospitality tent on the lake. UW Transportation Services will provide free public parking on both days in campus lots 3, 4, 9, 10, 20, 25, 26, 32, 34, 36 39, 40, 47, 51, 57 60, 62, 64 and 85. Lot 1 at Memorial Union will not be open to the public. The Helen C. White Hall, Grainger Hall and Fluno Center ramps (areas 6, 7 and 83) will sell parking on a space available basis. Area 46 (Southeast ramp) will have metered parking on Saturday; parking is free in the ramp on Sunday. Lake Street north of Langdon Street will be closed to traffic. Because Kites on Ice is run by a nonprofit organization, Madison Festivals Inc., those attending will be asked for suggested donations of $2 per adult and $1 per child. Donation boxes will be located at building entrances and on the ice.
