Built-in stereo microphone, manual audio level adjustment
The EOS Rebel T5i has an internal stereo microphone for improved audio capture and a wind filter feature to reduce wind noise when shooting outdoors. Sound recording levels can be manually (up to 64 different levels) or automatically controlled. A built-in attenuator is also provided to reduce audio clipping. For more advanced audio recording, the EOS Rebel T5i is compatible with many third-party electret condenser microphones with a 3.5mm diameter plug.
Video Snapshot
With the Video Snapshot feature, the EOS Rebel T5i can capture short video clips (of 2, 4 or 8 seconds) then combine them automatically into one video file as a snapshot or highlights "album". With no editing needed after shooting, the compiled video is perfect for sharing online or displaying directly on an HDTV via the camera's HDMI port. Additionally, stills can be recorded during video shooting simply by pressing the camera's shutter button. During playback, video clips in an album can be reordered or deleted.
Vari-angle Touch Screen 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor II with multi-touch operation and Touch AF
The EOS Rebel T5i comes with a Vari-angle Touch Screen 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor II. Using capacitive technology similar to today's popular mobile devices, this screen is touch-sensitive and delivers intuitive touch panel operation. Two-finger touch gestures can be used for zooming or changing images. Menu and quick control settings can be accessed, and focus point and shutter release can be activated with the touch of a fingertip using Touch AF. Displaying fine detail (at approximately 1.04 million dots), this screen is perfect for composing and reviewing images. Thanks to a solid construction between the monitor's resin-coated cover and the liquid crystal display, reflections are minimized, and the display can be viewed, without glare, from any number of angles. The LCD's surface is treated with a smudge-resistant coating to minimize fingerprints and maintain a bright, clear image display.
Scene Intelligent Auto mode
The EOS Rebel T5i features Scene Intelligent Auto mode, which incorporates a number of Canon technologies to deliver the best possible exposure. Joining Picture Style Auto, Automatic Lighting Optimizer, Automatic White Balance, Autofocus, and Automatic Exposure, Scene Intelligent Auto mode analyzes the image, accounting for faces, colors, brightness, moving objects, contrast, even whether the camera is handheld or on a tripod, and then chooses the exposure and enhancements that bring out the best in any scene or situation.
Handheld Night Scene mode
Accessible right on the EOS Rebel T5i's Mode Dial, Handheld Night Scene mode captures nightscapes with bright highlights and detailed dark areas, delivering results previously impossible without the use of a tripod. By shooting and combining four consecutive shots at a shutter speed fast enough to avoid camera shake, the EOS Rebel T5i's Handheld Night Scene mode makes dramatic nighttime photography simple.
HDR Backlight Control mode
The EOS Rebel T5i's HDR Backlight Control mode ensures that backlit subjects are not recorded too darkly. By shooting three consecutive shots at different exposures (underexposed, correctly exposed and overexposed) and then combining the images, the final result maintains detail in both the shadow and highlight areas, ensuring the backlit subject is properly exposed.
Seven Creative Filters that can be displayed in real time
To add to the fun and creative possibilities available with the EOS Rebel T5i, the camera has seven different creative filters that can dramatically alter the mood and visual effect of any particular scene. Creative Filters include Grainy Black and White, Soft Focus, Fisheye Effect, Toy Camera Effect, Miniature Effect, Art Bold Effect and Water Painting Effect. Each effect can be applied in three different levels (low, standard and strong), and easily previewed on the LCD panel in Live View. Since the filters can be applied to the image after shooting, it's easy to try several effects on the same shot during post-process.
Multi Shot Noise Reduction
To enhance its already admirable high ISO shooting capabilities, the EOS Rebel T5i features an intelligent Multi Shot Noise Reduction tool that reduces noise even further than the camera's sensor and the DIGIC 5 Image Processor do. With Multi Shot Noise Reduction activated, the camera takes four consecutive shots, merges and aligns them. This eliminates more noise than the Rebel's traditional Noise Reduction filter, with little or no apparent resolution loss. Moving subjects are even optimized to minimize subject blur! Thanks to this clever feature, high ISO shooting has never looked better.
Compatibility with SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards, including Ultra High Speed cards
The EOS Rebel T5i uses popular SD, SDHC, SDXC, and is even compatible with Ultra High Speed (UHS-I), memory cards. Compact and available in large capacities, SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards are a perfect complement to the camera's compact design.
Additionally, the EOS Rebel T5i is compatible with Eye-Fi* SD cards, which are outfitted with a Wi-Fi® transmitter (IEEE 802.11b/g) and an internal antenna for wireless, high-speed transfer of images. With an Eye-Fi card installed, the EOS Rebel T5i can display the Eye-Fi's connection status and error notes with ease, for fully functional wireless uploading of images directly from the camera.

Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver outstanding performance and deliver beautiful results. Special technologies like Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer help to minimize the effect of camera shake, effectively adding up to four stops of light; STM lenses even feature a stepping motor for smooth and quiet continuous autofocus while capturing video. With an array of lenses perfect for travel, sports, still life and everything in between, photographers can truly maximize the quality and performance of their EOS Rebel T5i.
Lens Aberration Correction
The EOS Rebel T5i features lens correction tools that compensate for lens characteristics that can affect overall image quality. The EOS Rebel T5i's Peripheral Illumination Correction feature corrects light falloff in the corner of the image according to the characteristics of the lens being used. It even has correction data for a number of popular lenses stored in its memory. With the EOS Rebel T5i's chromatic aberration correction tool, distracting color fringing can be corrected at the time of shooting.
Feature Guide
To help explain the specific function of features found on the EOS Rebel T5i, the Feature Guide displays a simple description helpful in determining the applicability for the situation at hand. It is displayed in each shooting mode, during mode dial operations, and for Quick Control screen functions. It appears automatically when a function is selected—a lifesaver when trying to determine the best mode or function for the next picture. The feature guide works automatically by default, and can be disabled easily through the camera's menu.
GPS Compatible
With the optional GPS Receiver GP-E2 attached to the hot shoe or the digital terminal, the EOS Rebel T5i can record location, including latitude, longitude and altitude, and has the ability to track the trajectory of movement with its logging function. An electric compass records the camera's orientation during each shot, and world time information is recorded through GPS syncing.
JPEG Resizing
To create images suitable for sharing by email or online, the EOS Rebel T5i can resize JPEG files, in-camera, of varying pixels (aspect ratio cannot be changed, only the image size can be decreased) while leaving the original image untouched.
Photobook Set-up
Photographers can share their images in book form with the EOS Rebel T5i's convenient Photobook Set-up feature. Users can easily choose specific images, images in a folder and even all images, then specify their sequence and layout. The results can be printed in book form with ease.
Image Rating
To help organize images recorded to the camera's storage, the EOS Rebel T5i makes it simple to rate individual images from one star to five. Therefore, image browsing, printing and slide shows can be based upon those ratings.

BALTIMORE ( Stockpickr) -- Let's face it: There are a lot of reasons to hate stocks right now, what with the uncertainty with the Fed, economic jitters in Europe and emerging markets and now the ongoing battle within Congress over funding the government. >>5 Stocks Under $10 Set to Soar But all of that market uncertainty could help to fuel a rally to 55,000 in the Dow. Yes, I realize that sounds crazy. But just bear with me for a minute, and I'll show you how the big index will get there. A year ago, I made a prediction that stocks were due for significant upside. Twelve months and nearly 20% later for stocks, few of those key factors have actually changed. From a sentiment standpoint, investors still hate stocks -- and by and large, retail investors don't own them in meaningful numbers. A perfect example of that comes from Fidelity. The fund management powerhouse is a great proxy for what the retail investor is doing with his money. Years ago, the biggest fund at Fidelity was the Magellan Fund, a stock fund. In today's post-2008 world, it's a $120 billion cash reserves fund. >>5 Stocks Hedge Funds Love This Fall To quote Wellington Management's Frank Teixeira: "People are protecting their investments from an event that's already happened." Yes, we've had a historic rally in the years since the market bottomed in March 2009, but that rally hasn't been supported by buying pressure from Joe Public. Instead, it's been propped up by a combination of structural factors and institutional necessity. But as the data from Fidelity show, there's still a lot of money sitting on the sidelines in retail investors' accounts ready to move into stocks when stocks come back into favor. A New Cycle Begins None of this is new -- we've seen it before. There are some striking similarities between the period we're in right now and the market conditions of the late 1940s and the early 1980s. History may not repeat, but it certainly rhymes. After the Great Depression, stocks fell out of favor for retail investors for a full decade as people protected themselves from a crash that had already taken place. The discount rate dropped to near where it is now in the years that followed, and stocks quadrupled in the decade after that. In the late 1970s, stocks fell out of favor again at the heels of the Oil Crisis, prompting BusinessWeek's infamous "Death of Equities" cover in 1979. Stocks more than doubled by the decade after that, and more than tripled by the mid-1990s.
>>5 Big Stocks to Trade for Big Gains So no, Dow 55,000 isn't a target that we'll see get taken out in 2014, but from a long-term view, the 55,000 level on the Dow isn't unrealistic even if it feels unattainable right now. We've hit similar market growth in both of the similar periods in years past. From a technical standpoint, the broad market is breaking out of a long-term base that couldn't be much clearer. A year ago, when I first put that sky-high target on stock prices, we weren't at new highs yet. Now that indices have hit a new high water mark in 2013, we've got far more confirmation that we're coming up on another rally leg. The extremely long-term chart of the Dow Jones Industrial Average below does a good job of showing off the similarities between the rallies that started in the 1940s, the 1980s, and today:
Each of the previous multi-decade consolidations in the Dow has taken on a very similar structure. And after breaking out through resistance, stock prices never looked back. The Fundamental Factors From a fundamental standpoint, a prolonged rally in stocks doesn't really make sense. After all, stocks have moved too far too fast from the 2009 bottom, right? Now they're looking expensive again. But that's not exactly accurate. As I write, the Dow sports a price-to-earnings ratio of 16.8. It was 16.2 in the last five years of the 1930s and just over 10 in the last five years of the 1970s. (For comparison, the high inflation of the 1970s warrants that P/E discount versus the 1930s and now.) The point is that transformational earnings growth isn't something that's visible at this stage in the cycle yet. >>How to Avoid Big Losses During the Government Shutdown There is a big difference today, however. In 2013, corporate profitability and cash holdings have hit all-time highs, which means that around 25% of major stock index value actually comes from cold hard cash. We've never seen liquid assets make up so much of stocks' assets before -- and that means that P/E ratios are very much overstated. Stocks are actually much cheaper than they appear.
It's also important to consider what cheap really means for stocks. For value-driven investors who use the last five years as a look-back period, of course stocks look expensive today. Over that time period, stocks were bouncing back from absurd bear-market valuations. When you're used to driving at 5 miles per hour, accelerating to 30 miles per hour seems pretty fast. But that doesn't mean that it's as fast as the car can go. A Structural Rally I mentioned earlier than so far we've largely been in a structural rally. So what does that mean exactly? Since late 2008, the Federal Reserve has undertaken a policy of quantitative easing that's poured money into the markets by the dump truck full. With Janet Yellen stepping up as the presumptive replacement for Ben Bernanke, that faucet of free money isn't likely to get shut off anytime soon. But then again, it wasn't really going to be shut off anyway. One result of "QEx" has been an everything rally. In short, stocks aren't the only asset class that's seen prices appreciate at a breakneck pace, it's just the only one that investors don't believe in right now. Since the market crash, fixed income and commodities have both rallied hard too. When everything's going up, it means one thing: the monetary base is expanding very quickly. Luckily for U.S. investors, everyone else has been printing money too. That, and the safe-haven designation of the U.S. markets, has saved the dollar from getting shellacked. But in this environment, stocks are the clear outperformer. >>5 Stocks Insiders Are Scooping Up Right now, investors are still overweight flight to quality investments like treasuries. But those investments are atrophying away under the low-rate, comparatively higher interest rate environment that we're currently knee-deep in. It doesn't take hyperinflation to create a toxic environment for low-risk assets, just negative real interest rates. Stocks may not be perfect, but when treasury investors can't take the pain anymore, they're going to have to turn to stocks again. When that happens, the flow of funds will send the stock rally moving in earnest. Looking back historically, the "Great Rotation" from safety investments to stocks has come between five and seven years after major market bottoms. That should make the next couple of years pretty interesting.
Profit from Dow 55,000 As I mentioned before, Dow 55,000 isn't a price target for next year or the year after. It's a very long-term target that's based on the runs stocks have made in the last two similar periods to today. But now is absolutely the time to get your portfolio positioned for the upside. The simplest way to profit from Dow 55,000 is to buy stocks as a group. Major index exchange-traded funds such as the SPDR S&P 500 ETF ( SPY) or the PowerShares QQQ Trust ( QQQ) may not be very sexy, but they give you instant exposure to a diversified equity portfolio with very low fees. That said, this is very much a stock picker's market. Aside from general stock buying, one of the best ways to play this trend is by honing in on fundamentally solid names that everyone else hates. Heavily shorted stocks have the potential for a short squeeze as sentiment turns, and that's more than just an old wives' tale; my research shows that buying heavily shorted large and mid-cap stocks (the top two quartiles of all shortable stocks by market capitalization) and rebalancing monthly over the last decade would have beaten the S&P 500 by 9.28% each and every year. That's some material outperformance during a decade when decent returns were very hard to come by. That makes names such as Garmin ( GRMN), Intuit ( INTU) and even high-flying Chipotle Mexican Grill ( CMG) look pretty attractive in the years ahead. I'm the first to admit that Dow 55,000 sounds like a crazy price target for stocks right now. But with so many factors lining up to suggest another generational buying opportunity for stocks right now, it'd be just as crazy not to position your portfolio for it in 2013. -- Written by Jonas Elmerraji in Baltimore.

Barclays Plc was so bent on lifting its private trading venue to the upper ranks of Wall Street dark pools that it lied to customers and masked the role of high-frequency traders, according to New York's attorney general.
Barclays falsified marketing materials to hide how much high-frequency traders were buying and selling, according to a complaint filed today by Eric Schneiderman. Barclays runs one of Wall Street's largest dark pools, a private trading venue where investors can trade stocks mostly anonymously. Mark Lane, a spokesman for London-based Barclays, declined to comment.
Schneiderman has taken a leading role in seeking to reform how equities trade in the $23 trillion U.S. stock market, examining whether exchanges and dark pools give unfair perks to high-frequency traders. Critics say firms using strategies built around buying and selling at rates measured in fractions of a second trade so quickly that others can't compete.
"This is obviously a breach of confidence, a breach of trust," said Joe Saluzzi, co-head of equity trading at Themis Trading LLC. "It's pretty obvious at this point that the SEC needs to come in, it needs to know what's going on actually inside these boxes. Barclays -- are they the only ones? We don't know. I don't know."
Fortifying Suspicions
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Mary Jo White on June 5 voiced concern about the level of trading on venues where bids and offers are kept private, masking the true depth of demand for shares. Yesterday, the SEC said it would test a program to limit the amount of trading -- now roughly 40 percent of volume -- handled off public exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Stock Market.
Schneiderman's action will fortify a suspicion among critics of dark pools and high-frequency firms, which proliferated in the past decade with advances in computer power and efforts to spur competition among U.S. trading venues. Namely, that in the rush to attract traders to their markets and boost profits, the venues have catered to computerized market makers to the detriment of individuals.
"Everyone who cares about the integrity of our markets should be shocked by the conduct the complaint describes," Schneiderman said today during a press conference.
In the complaint, filed in New York state Supreme Court in Manhattan, Schneiderman said Barclaystold customers that it was protecting them from "aggressive, predatory or toxic" high- frequency traders, while secretly courting them.
'Fraud and Deceit'
Schneiderman painted a picture of "fraud and deceit" at Barclays perpetrated by unidentified executives who lied to customers about the role played by high-frequency traders in its market as part of an effort to increase its size. Some former "high-level" Barclays insiders helped frame the case, according to the complaint.
Seeking to reassure customers that their stock orders wouldn't be picked off by predatory counterparts,Barclays touted a system designed to keep that from happening called liquidity profiling, according to the complaint. Marketing material including charts purported to show that very little of the trading within the dark pool was "aggressive" and that operating there was safe for institutions.
"The representations were false," according to the complaint. The chart and accompanying statements misrepresented the trading taking place in Barclays' dark pool. Senior Barclays personnel de-emphasized the presence of high-frequency traders in the pool and left out reference to one of the largest and most toxic participants, it said.
'Taking Liberties'
"Internally, Barclays acknowledged that it was 'taking liberties' with the truth by suppressing the disclosure of this high frequency trading firm, but decided to falsify the analysis in order to 'help ourselves,'" according to the complaint.
Expanding its dark pool to one of the biggest in the country "was a principal goal" of Barclays'electronic trading division in its quest to drive profits, according to the complaint. Attracting orders was important to building market share, reducing commissions paid to other venues and increasing fees collected from firms using the venue, it said.
Data from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority shows that the Barclays LX venue is the second-largest U.S. dark pool, trailing only Credit Suisse Group AG's Crossfinder.

Margie Butler and Paul Espinoza didn't really bow out, though they were a bit burned out.
Margie Butler and Paul Espinoza didn't really bow out, though they were a bit burned out.
"We never actually 100 percent stopped," Butler said. "It was sort of like coming home. You might move, but people don't forget. Longevity has something to be said for it."
After a six-year hiatus, Butler, a harp player, and Espinoza, who plays mandolin, are back to taking bows in Golden Bough, the Celtic folk trio whose slightly interrupted legacy began in 1980.
The break also allowed violin player Kathy Sierra to concentrate on mothering her daughter, now 6.
"We definitely didn't think we'd miss it as much as we did," Butler said of their sabbatical in Oregon's WillametteValley. "We did hit the point where we were performing so much we kinda forgot where we lived. We'd do 300 gigs in 365 days. Sometimes more than one gig in a day. You get kinda burned out."
Having relieved that, the trio - now based in Modesto - plays its first Manteca Kindred Arts concert Saturday at St. Paul's United Methodist Church.
In addition to original tunes, their 20-song performance focuses on music from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, Brittany and Galicia.
"I just can't get over how timeless it is in beauty, humor, yearning," said Butler, who grew up absorbing the ancestral essence of her Irish father. "So many things people can love. It's so evocative. It's melodic. You can't beat those melodies."
In the Internet age, you still can locate them. Easily.
"Just the other day, I wanted to find the lyrics of a song called 'On Christmas Night,' " Butler said. "I looked on YouTube and there were 25 different groups singing" the English folk song. "In the old days, you'd have to get an LP or find it in a book. Now, I just push a button."
The Internet also has extended Golden Bough's recorded legacy. Eight of its 21 albums, dating back to vinyl LPs and cassettes, no longer are available.
"It's hard to keep track of," said Butler. "But the Internet's made it great around this time of year."
"Winter's Dance," Golden Bough's "very first" Christmas album (1982), "originally became a holiday family classic," Butler said. Re-issued on CD, "people are ordering it from far and wide. Almost daily, we get emails or calls from people saying, 'I found you. I never thought I'd find you again.' It's so exciting."
Butler and Espinoza, both born in San Diego, met at Grossmont College in El Cajon, first performing together during a 1971 benefit Christmas concert for the homeless at San Diego's Balboa Park Bowl.
Her father, William Butler, was a teacher and opera singer who hosted radio broadcasts of Irish music in the "bardic tradition." Mom Esther was a kindergarten teacher. Three of her five brothers became musicians.
"Ever since I can remember, my father sang old Irish songs," Butler said. "I was singing and playing one instrument or another. I thought I always would be a performer. I just didn't know what direction I'd take."
She was smitten by the harp - the big, stringed kind - but her family couldn't afford one. So she played piano, violin, guitar, recorder and Irish penny whistle until she was 20 and could buy her own as a student at United States International University.
Espinoza started playing accordion in the "Lawrence Welk era," added piano and taught himself guitar after seeing the Beatles on "The Ed Sullivan Show" in 1964. Influenced by his mom's affinity for Woody Guthrie and the 1960s-'70s folk revival, he also plays guitar, accordion and banjo.
In 1977, as the Everyman Gypsy Band, they moved to San Francisco, playing traditional and original music on the streets and in pubs.
In 1980, they teamed with Lief Sorbye to form Golden Bough, blending traditional and contemporary styles.
After eight years, Sorbye departed to start Tempest, a Celtic rock band. Violin (fiddle) players came and went while Butler and Espinoza - whose son Arion, now 38, traveled the world with them as a child - kept on going.
Celtic-music and dance boomlets, prompted by "Braveheart," a 1995 movie, and the "Riverdance" phenomenon (1994), helped sustain interest.
Golden Bough toured Europe twice a year, prompting positive - occasionally curious - reactions.
"They love it when we play in Ireland," Butler said of their "Songs of the Irish Immigrants" and "America Bound" shows. "But they also wanted us to sing country music: 'That's great. Now, can you play some Hank Williams? We don't understand why you'd play this music if you're from America.' "
In 2001, Sierra joined them. When she became pregnant in 2004, they moved to Sheridan, Ore., slowing down and mostly participating in school music programs. They'd lived in Pacifica for 25 years, but moved to Modesto, where Espinoza's parents reside, in 2008.
They plan to record a new CD in the spring and want to get their "America Bound" collection released, too.
Re-energized after their hiatus - "If you say I'm pushing 60, you wouldn't be too far wrong," Butler said. "He's 60." - they're Bough-ing full-time again.
"It requires a special combination when you love to play music and live with someone," Butler said. "When you find that synergy, it's pretty rare. As much as a love of music, you have to have a love for travel.
"The nuts and bolts of it are exhausting. There's not a ton of glamour. People are most important. But, if you don't love music, it won't work."

Buffalo Bill Days seems to be really developing and this year will include a Bake Off hosted and judged by the Leavenworth Public Library.
Buffalo Bill Days seems to be really developing and this year will include a Bake Off hosted and judged by the Leavenworth Public Library. There are rules to follow, of course, and you can go to the "Leavenworth City Limits" Face Book page to find them and the library will be posting the rules everywhere.
It is not too early to start thinking about how you will enter your cake or pie.
The Bake Off is limited to just cakes and pies, but there are optional sub-categories like gluten-free, sugar-free (you can use honey or other natural sweeteners), and vegan.
You cake or pie must include either apple or pumpkin in some form and you can use both. It does not have to be a main ingredient.
You are limited to just one entry, so make it good.
Also in the spirit of trying to keep to the time period, you can consider using those ingredients traditionally used in 1886, i.e., things like flour, butter, lard, cinnamon, nutmeg, white sugar, and milk.
Personally, although it is historically accurate to use lard, I would probably use some other kind of shortening if I was not already very familiar with using lard.
The librarians say that they will judge based on presentation, taste, and creativity. I suspect that taste will be the big winner, but just in case your cake or pie tastes as good as the one next to it on the table, maybe it would win more points if it looked better.
BTW, no professionals in this Bake Off. If you make cakes and pies for a living, you'll have to sit this one out.
Otherwise, the contest is divided into age groups of 8-12-year olds, 13-17-year olds, and 18+.
You may also enter as a family, which is at least two related individuals, and as a group, which is at least two unrelated individuals. Oh, this other rule may throw someone. Your entry must be made from scratch.
I guess that mostly means no store-bought crusts or cans of pie mix.
You'll have to check with the library on pumpkin pie mix.
That is what we always use at home.
Better to know well in advance so that you can plan properly and not get thrown out on the day of the competition.
There's no refrigeration at Hay Market Square, so make sure that your entry is properly covered.
Get it to the Library's BBD booth by 1 p.m. on Saturday and judging begins at 2 p.m. Judges will not know who baked what and winners will get a commemorative plate. That could be a real collector's item, so make sure you do your best.
In fact, I would start baking a few things right now without waiting until Saturday morning or Friday evening and the last minute.
Everyone will get a certificate for participating, but only the winners get the plate. Then, when the judging is over, all of the cakes and pies will be sliced and people can make donations of at least one dollar (be generous, please) and take a piece.
All of the funds will go directly to the Library to be used to buy supplies for the Reading Is Fun program and maybe other Library programs that benefit our kids.
So, one way to benefit kids' learning at the Library while having fun and maybe winning a coveted Buffalo Bill Days commemorative prize plate is to bake and enter a cake or pie on Buffalo Bill Days this September.
There are other really cool activities that are planned such as the really well-liked Out House Race, lots of live music by bands that are working for free, and a school-aged youth art show that will include music and drama besides the regular 2-D and 3-D art and it is supposed to be held near the river.
Personally, I would like to see a Quick Draw contest where artists have an hour or two to produce something which is then sold at auction.
The BBD in Cody, Wyoming, has a Quick Draw.
It kind of goes along with the Old West theme. Will have to wait and see.

Philip was born in Fredericktown, Missouri, in 1920; his father was a miner and a farmer. Philip was the oldest child of three girls and two boys. Philip grew up knowing the difficult times of the 1930s. He told his children that every year he would receive an orange and a pair of overalls for Christmas.
Philip graduated in 1938 and joined the Civilian Conservation Corps.
He was given an aptitude test and tested strongly in the area of electronics. He was sent to work in Boston Harbor on some of the earliest radar equipment.
He was then sent to and graduated from Annapolis where he was trained in radar and sonar; they had just developed that technology and put it in some ships. Philip later transferred to the Merchant Marines. The Merchant Marines were sending supplies to England and the allies for the Land Lease Program.
Philip went to sea to work on liberty ships; he was a radio operator and traveled from ship to ship. There are photos of him from all over the world. His children remember some of the treasures he brought back from his many destinations.
Philip's brother, Ted, joined the Army and was trained in high altitude surveillance photography. In 1944 Ted was on the SS Paul Hamilton, a ship that carried high explosives and bombs. It was attacked in the Mediterranean Sea and all men aboard were killed. Philip had a letter in his belongings that he received from Teddy that was discovered after his brother was killed. Philip never could open that letter.
Philip was still traveling around the world with the Merchant Marines. He was a radar officer and could spot the submarines and report their positions to the supporting ships. As the war wound down Philip continued as a radio operator, but got out of the Merchant Marines. The airlines needed radio operators and he became a radio operator for TWA in Boulder City, Nevada.
In 1948 he traveled to Wichita, Kan., what was known then as the air capital of the world due to the number of planes it manufactured. He took a job at Beech Aircraft.
Beech had airplanes that it sold to the Army for use in Vietnam. Philip found a way to make extra money because Beech needed someone to go to Vietnam and help manage those airplanes. Philip knew many languages and could speak Vietnamese. He took heat sensing radar to Vietnam. He could not go as a civilian, so he was given a commission. His job was to go from site to site and take the Agent Orange tanks out of the aircraft and replace that with heat sensing radar and teach others how to repair it while in the field. He was trying to have the Vietnamese take over and learn how to do this.
Christmas, December 1968, Philip had sent home pictures of him standing in front of the aircraft, he had lost at least 50 pounds, and they could see that he wasn't well. He continued to lose weight at a rapid pace, strange things began happening to his body. The Army sent him back to where they could bring many doctors into see him, by this time it was decided to send him home. They didn't know it then, but it was the effects of Agent Orange that was causing his medical problems. At this time he was 48 years old.
The Army called his mother to tell her when he would back on the ground in the United States, the family hardly recognized him when they saw him, and it was staggering to see what he looked like. His skin looked like like gray metal and the doctor said he didn't have long to live. He had lost over one hundred pounds. Every organ was failing. Philip did not live too long after that.
Their father believed and expressed to them repeatedly that if we don't fight for freedom in Vietnam, then we will have to fight it on our own shores.
Philip told his daughter Rebecca that this country was worth dying for. Philip passed away soon after that conversation.

The Real Girl's Guide To Dressing Like A Fashion Editor
As you've probably realised by our extensive coverage, no two fashion editors dress exactly alike. For every pencil skirted Carine Roitfeld, there's a slouchy t-shirt, cigarette jean-wearing Emmanuelle Alt.

Tampa Youth Leadership Council Most Successful
Youth Spring Into Action (Y.S.I.A.), is just one of several community engagement initiatives facilitated by Devereux Kids in the neighborhood of Sulphur Springs in Tampa, Florida. Since September 2006, Devereux Kids has been providing community education and youth leadership development programs in Sulphur Springs. Y.S.I.A. is comprised of neighborhood youth between the ages of 13-19. Supported and advised by Keith Babb, Devereux Kids community facilitator, Y.S.I.A. is youth-led, serving as a voice for the youth in the community. This initiative provides youth opportunities for leadership development, positive out-of-school activities, and community service projects. The goal is to improve their life opportunities, motivate them to plan for a better future, and build their leadership skills to become contributing members of their community.
The community partners' support and involvement is vital to the growth and success of Y.S.I.A.'s future. The Sulphur Springs Neighborhood Association has provided the youth opportunities to conduct community service projects and venues for their events, utilizing Mann-Wagnon Park, the site for the Sulphur Springs Museum. The youth council also serves as an initiative to increase participation of other teens in the neighborhood sponsoring activities and programs at North Tampa Community Center, with the support of the City of Tampa Parks & Recreation Department, Tampa Bay Boys & Girls Club, Chamberlain High School and other community stakeholders interested in improving the lives of our youth.
Y.S.I.A., initially funded through support from the Rays Baseball Foundation All Star grant, has been in existence for less than a year, but has already made a tremendous impact in the community. An event that had a positive impact for both the youth and their parents was our Parent Appreciation Breakfast in which the teen members prepared and served breakfast to over 20 parents, grandparents, relatives, and caregivers. They wanted to express their gratitude to the adults in their lives for supporting their development and growth. During the breakfast, the University of South Florida's Parental Information & Resource Center facilitated a workshop on improving communication and ways to become more involved in their child's educational success.
In April 2011, nine Y.S.I.A. members traveled to Tallahassee to attend Children's Week. They toured the state Capitol, met with State Representative Betty Reed, and attended the Youth Advocacy Workshop to learn how they can become effective advocates and make a difference in their community. Considering the many accomplishments the youth have made in such a short period; the future outlook is great!

Photo via the "Bring Back God Street Wine" Facebook group
John Kadlecik and Jeff Chimenti joined God Street Wine during their opening set at Terrapin Crossroads in San Rafael, CA last night. The Furthur guitarist and keyboardist made their appearance on a cover of Billy Roberts' "Hey Joe" and "Get On The Train," which closed out the set.
Kadlecik, Chimenti and Phil Lesh once again joined God Street Wine for the main "Ramble" of the evening. The middle of the first set consisted of a long jam that began with "He's Gone", which moved into a John Coltrane-based "A Love Supreme Jam" that was followed by "Loser." That song then played into Bob Dylan's "Simple Twist of Fate" before coming to a close with "It Must've Been the Roses." The second set also saw renditions of The Meters' "Hey Pocky Way" and Paul Simon's "Late In The Evening." The show wrapped up with an encore of Dylan's "Tangled Up In Blue."
Last night's full setlists can be viewed below. As previously reported, God Street Wine will be joined by Lesh, Kadlecik and Chimenti again tonight for the last performance of their three-night Terrapin Crossroads run. Fans will be able to livestream the show here.

RIDGECREST — As its season comes to a close, the Cerro Coso volleyball team has started to hit its stride. The Coyotes beat Rio Hondo College in five sets 30-28, 25-23, 21-25, 13-25, 15-11 on Friday night at the Ray McCue Center for a victory in their final home match of the season.
RIDGECREST — As its season comes to a close, the Cerro Coso volleyball team has started to hit its stride. The Coyotes beat Rio Hondo College in five sets 30-28, 25-23, 21-25, 13-25, 15-11 on Friday night at the Ray McCue Center for a victory in their final home match of the season.
"This was one of the best games that the girls have played this season," Coyotes head coach Kim Young said. "I knew they had it in them, they really played up to their potential and it was exciting to see."
Cerro Coso (7-11, 2-6 Foothill) jumped out to a two-set lead and hung on to pick up its second conference win of the season. Rio Hondo (7-13, 3-5) rallied to tie the match, and took the fourth set in convincing fashion.
"That fourth set was a complete fluke. I don't even feel that we were playing that poorly — they went on a service run and just got us," Young said. "We just had to let it go, and we came back feeling like we could win the fifth set."
Cerro Coso bounced back to take the fifth set, and avenged a sweep from the first round of conference play in the process. The Coyotes had a 14-7 lead in the final frame before closing out the Roadrunners.
"Our team played as a team — there was a lot of unity out there and we never got down, and that's something we've really been working on," Young said. "We're finally seeing it come together in this last half of conference."
The Coyotes used a team effort to down Rio Hondo — they served 90 percent as a team and combined for a season-high 18 blocks. Middle hitter Liz Gammett led the team with seven blocks.
"We blocked phenomenally — we've been working hard at practice the last few weeks getting our blocks to close up better and it has really paid off," Young said.
Outside hitter Ashley Sherrick had a team-high 23 kills to go along with 42 good receives. Libero Adrianna Volentine tallied 40 digs and 30 great receives, and setter Kelsey Lopez finished with 58 assists and served 95 percent in 23 attempts.
"We've had a few changes in personnel, so we had to get Kelsey in there and we had to get her to run a 5-1 consistently," Young said. "It has worked out great for us, and she has worked really hard."
The Coyotes honored their two sophomore captains prior to Friday night's match — middle hitters Laura Metcalf and Morgan Fuller. Fuller had eight kills and hit .571 in the match, and Metcalf notched eight kills and served a team-high three aces.
"They played outstanding and I really wanted them to have a great night since it was their last home game," Young said. "They mean a lot to the team — their leadership is great and it's something we really count on. They take resposibility on and off the court, and I'm really going to miss them because of that."
Two days earlier, Cerro Coso took the first set against second-place Victor Valley College before falling in four sets. Even in defeat the Coyotes showed improvement from their first meeting against Victor Valley, which resulted in a sweep.
"We can beat any team, we just have to be consistent," Young said. "That's something I'm seeing now — we're getting better and we're getting closer to beating these other teams."
Cerro Coso wraps up its 2013 season on the road this week. The Coyotes play at San Bernardino Valley College on Wednesday, and face College of the Desert on Friday. Both matches start at 5:30 p.m.

A post whore thread is pretty much a meaningless thread that is created to allow a small clique of users a vehicle to inflate their post counts. It runs page after page of irrelevant banter that serves the broader community no purpose, but it does serve to bolster this small group's post counts, which I assume is suppose to bolster ones perceived authority on a message board.
1st world problem, I know.
Not a big deal, right? When a forum provides the option for users to rate these threads, they usually fall in the 1 to 2 star category, and I think most people see it for what it is.
My only gripe comes in when said post whores main contribution to the forum is whore posting negative comments about the forum, demonizing this forum's members with a broad brush on other forums, and encouraging members to jump this ship to join said other forum (where they are post whores as well).
My point is this, I'm all for shutting down post whore threads, epessally when they become hostile to the fourm that supports them.
Feel free to kudo if you agree, and share your take on the matter.

CARSON, Calif. – In a little more than a week, the LA Galaxy will play for their fourth MLS Cup title on Dec. 1 against the Houston Dynamo at The Home Depot Center. If that wasn't enough to build hoopla, the match will also serve as the final game for David Beckham with the Galaxy.
While Beckham's finale will make headlines worldwide, Galaxy believe that it does not overshadow LA's bid for the title.
"No, obviously they're very aware of their timing, their announcing it and when. For us it doesn't change anything. This team is very used to having a lot of attention on it," affirmed Galaxy captain Landon Donovan. "For different reasons, I actually think it's probably a good thing. He's certainly going to be very motivated, as if he wouldn't be anyway. And for all of us who have been around him a long time we want to send him out on a good note."
Beckham is quick to agree that the drama of MLS Cup only adds to the emotion surrounding his finale with LA.
"It's been my home for the last six years, I've had some amazing times, one or two difficult times, but I've had some amazing memories here in this stadium and with this team," said Beckham. "To be able to finish my career as a galaxy player in my own stadium, in a Cup final is special enough. Hopefully, to win it would finish everything off for me."
The Galaxy midfielder is not alone in that sentiment as head coach Bruce Arena believes that it could augment Beckham's career with LA that has seen him make 98 regular season appearances, tallying 18 goals and 40 assists in six seasons with LA.
"I think it will contribute to a great day," said head coach Bruce Arena. "I think it will make for a fabulous event."
But the Galaxy boss is quick to admit that it will be no easy task for LA or Beckham as the Houston Dynamo pose a real challenge for LA.
"Obviously our team wants to win the Cup and certainly for David to get two and a row would be great," said Arena. "But I forewarn you, our opponent is going to be extremely difficult to beat. Houston is a very good team right now and they're going to be very difficult team to beat."

Javier Mascherano made a game-saving play, but it came at a painful cost.
The Argentina centre back made a diving tackle to break up an Arjen Robben run in the box during extra time in Wednesday's World Cup semifinal showdown against the Netherlands.
Mascherano doubled over over in pain. The reason, he told reporters, was because he tore his anus on the play.
Uh, ouch.
It wasn't the only painful play for Mascherano in the match. The Argentine collapsed to the ground after butting heads with Dutch opponent Georginio Wijnaldum. At first, Mascherano tried to shake it off, but he lost his balance moments later.
Despite the apparent head injury, he stayed in the game.
Argentina went on to win 4-2 on penalty kicks and will meet Germany in the World Cup final Sunday.
Some unforgettable words from Mascherano: "I spread out my anus in that last tackle, that's why I felt so much pain"— Tancredi Palmeri (@tancredipalmeri) July 10, 2014
Here's the head-butt play …
