Expect 'Religulous' and Bill Maher to raise Oscars hell
When I attended a press screening for Bill Maher's "Religulous" in New York on Tuesday, it struck me like a lightning bolt on the road to the Kodak Theatre via Damascus: yeah, "Religulous" will probably be nominated for best docu at the Oscars — and God help us all after that.
We know that "Religulous" is seriously in the derby for several reasons. First, Lionsgate hired veteran Oscars PR reps to handle its ballyhoo (Michele Robertson in L.A., Jeff Hill in New York). Secondly, the studio is giving the documentary its theatrical runs in L.A. and New York to qualify it for academy consideration, as Jeff Sneider notes at Anne Thompson's blog at Variety.com. Thirdly, the hallelujahs that film critics gave it today at the screening. More disciples are sure to follow.
In order to catch on widely like religion itself, what atheism has needed for a long time is a popular preacher to rally 'round. Maher just volunteered for the job that's been vacant since Madalyn Murray O'Hair vanished in the 1990s (eventually found murdered in 2001). Richard Dawkins has been a fine temporary stand-in, but not flashy like O'Hair. Bill Maher kicks things up a notch. He's a pop culture hipster who already has a large, anti-establishment flock, and he has a bully pulpit that O'Hair didn't: his own HBO show plus vast presence across all media.
Up until recently, I didn't realize how few Americans knew about the historical argument against Jesus. As the product of 16 years of Catholic education — from St. Mary's Elementary School in Mentor, Ohio, to the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Ind. — I've had more than a casual interest in the pro and con issues. Two years ago, when "The Da Vinci Code" was the big buzz, I was amazed at how many people were shocked when I'd say something like, "Well, there is no historical evidence that Jesus ever existed."
What?! I could expect outrage over the comment but not surprise from sophisticated, educated people, religious or not. Doesn't everybody know that Roman and Jewish writers who were alive during the time that Jesus is said to have lived do not mention him? Contemporary historical accounts record lots of other messiah figures but somehow manage to miss the one who Christian texts claim posed such a huge threat to the powers that be that the Roman leaders had to crucify him. The first historic record of Jesus doesn't come till AD 93 — more than a half century after the date given for Jesus' crucifixion — and that account, allegedly by Josephus, is widely disputed, as is another oft-cited mention of Jesus in 120 by Tacitus. READ MORE
In "Religulous," you can see lots of shocked faces when Bill Maher mentions casually that none of the people who wrote the Bible — including Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, even St. Paul — ever met Jesus. They're flabbergasted. They can't believe what they're hearing.
Many devout Christians who are aware of these facts accept them and continue to practice their religion anyway because their beliefs are based on faith, and that's fine. There is no historical evidence that says Jesus didn't exist, so God bless them, I say.
But I don't think that most Christians know about the lack of historical evidence or some other hot topics that Maher dares to bring up in "Religulous" — like how many of America's Founding Fathers blasted religion. Maher quotes Benjamin Franklin's line "Lighthouses are more useful than churches," and really nasty stuff from Thomas Jefferson and John Adams.
Most Americans, I've come to learn, really believe that our Founding Fathers were devout Christians. The history books used in our schools somehow fail to quote what Jefferson thought on the subject: "Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on man."
"Religulous" not only whips up these subjects but does so in a well-made film that is — God help us all —entertaining. Maher, after all, is a master comedian and satirist.
And he's a savvy media guru too. He's doing lots of PR to push "Religulous" while teaming up with his director, Larry Charles ("Borat"). When "Religulous" opens in theaters in October, and media buzz is cranked up high, it'll certainly cause religious uproar, which will only fuel further interest.
Thus Oscar voters will be forced to pay attention to "Religulous" and, assuming it gets enough good reviews — which I think it will — it will be taken seriously by them as a film. So far it's not a strong year for documentaries, so, barring divine intervention, I think it's in the derby.

Storms and showers possible tomorrow
Storms and showers possible tomorrow
We really need the rain. All of the state is under a moderate risk for fire danger with a burn ban in Johnson and Logan counties. The storms and showers tomorrow will help that combat our low rainfall numbers. Rain will start to push in as early as day break. We could see more rain throughout the day. We are expecting brief heavy downpours that could result in rainfall totals close to an inch.
We will cool under these showers as well. High temperatures will be in the low to mid 60s. We could see some more rain on election day as well. They chances don't look as great as on Monday.

Under the Gun
By Werelynx
The general sat stone-faced in front of the observation windows. He looked to his right and left, seeing only the many technicians and scientists working feverishly at their computer terminals. Doctor Jamison, a pretty brunette, tapped command sequences into her laptop while running through data sheets with her free hand.
"Jamison, I can't fully express the amount of stress on this project. We need this cold lump of steel to move for us today, or we can all just collect our pensions and get out now." The general pulled out and lit his pipe, trying to calm his nerves. "We don't just have the Pentagon on our case, we've got every branch of the United States Army and the President himself that want to see her in action. She'd better work this time, Doctor." Jamison scrawled a thick line down one of her papers.
"You think I don't know that? Just sit down and shut up, sir, I mean it. We'll have her running in about a minute." She typed another string of code, flipped a switch, and spoke into her microphone, "Okay, everybody, we're live. Let's run her through some tests." Inside the gigantic test bay, a cold flicker of electricity scurried up a power cable. With a start, the massive robot, a trim, lanky-looking creature at least 200 feet tall, shuddered and turned on-line. It flexed its titanium-thread muscles and wiggled all of its fingers.
"My God…she's working. She's working!" The general dropped his cup of coffee and jumped from his seat. "Three billion dollars worth of research, and we've damn well done it!"
Doctor Jamison curled her lips in a thin smile. Finally! It wasn't like this was an easy job, especially with that loudmouthed General Richards always breathing down her neck about it.
"Yes, sir, we have confirmed a definite awareness inside the seal. She can run it on full power, now." Richards padded towards the elevator.
"Good job, people. You worked hard on her, and it paid off. I want her fully prepped for piloting on Friday, Jamison! Make sure nothing happens to that robot!" He had just stepped into the open door when it started to scream.
"What's happening!?" Jamison whirled on her subordinates and barked out orders. "Cut her feed! I don't want to charge her any more! Ensign, you shut down her control system. It looks like she wants to break loose." The robot was wrenching free of its restraints, arching its back in slow agony and wailing a hollow, electronic scream. In another second, the power line that fed it energy was jettisoned from its back-but that didn't slow it down.
"Doctor! It's not letting me shut down the control stem! She's assumed command of the nervous system!"
"Doctor Jamison! I flipped the power, but she's running on her internal reactor! She initiated it herself!" Jamison popped her laptop open again.
"There's no choice. I'll have to detonate the control stem. Ensign, get me a feed on the double!" One of her technicians ran through piles and piles of code, trying to find a working channel.
"I can't, ma'am! She's blocking all of the frequencies!" With a tremor felt throughout the complex, the restraints tore free from the wall and hit the floor with a resonating thud. In an instant, the robot was attacking the six-foot-thick observation windows with its fists. General Richards was captivated by fear.
"Oh…she…she's trying to get in…" Jamison blazed through the banks for open frequencies, being blocked each time by the power of the machine. Outside, the thing had stopped hammering at the windows with its fists and had begun instead to bludgeon the transparent surface with its head. Each blow flattened its cranium further, while apparently doing little to slow it down.
"Get everyone out of here that can move! To the elevator! Nearly all of the technicians bolted for the waiting doors, crowding into the small space. The general hopped to the side as the doors slammed shut. He looked out the window and saw, for a moment, the robot stop to tilt its head as if listening. Quicker than he could follow, one truncheon fist shot out and bored into the wall, instantly crushing the elevator and any people unlucky enough to be inside it.
With another wail, the titanic mouth ripped open and began to tear at the walls of the observation deck, taking chunks of concrete and steel with each bite. It gnashed at the windows, each blow pushing the set of spider-web cracks further along the glass. Jamison and Richards both dove for cover as the wall shattered under the psychotic rampage of the beast. It shoved both hands into the hole and wrenched the remaining barriers away from the cowering General and the scientist who was even now trying to shut it down.
The robot forced its crushed head through the opening, intent on killing this little man that was to blame for its creation.
"Jamisoooon!!!" The technician dealt the finishing blow in a flurry of keystrokes as she beat the Trojan system in the machine and ignited the explosives in its control column. With a muffled boom, the thing stopped cold and fell to rest on its knees, head still inside the deck. General Richards was curled up in a small ball of terror below the foot-thick jaws that had threatened to rend him limb from limb moments before. Jamison ignored him and instead crawled out of the massive hole that the rampaging machine had made, standing on its hunched back and looking down its spine.
"If there is a God, he must hate this damned…thing we've made." A lone drop of blood fell on her shoulder. She looked up to see the giant's hand, trapped forever in the act of scrawling a long gouge down the wall. The blood of ten men and women was splattered across the knuckles, and as she watched, another drop fell and ran a red tear down her cheek.

Randy Quaid and wife Evi are facing burglary charges in California following a homeowner's claims that the Quaids have been squatting in a guest home without permission, according to The Associated Press.
The Quaids arrested in Santa Barbara
The home's property owner called Santa Barbara County sheriff's deputies on Saturday to file the complaint. When deputies arrived at the house to find the Quaids, the couple claimed they owned the property since the 1990s, according to the AP.
The property owner's rep provided documentation that showed the property owner purchased the home in 2007 from a man who purchased it from the Quaids several years earlier. A contractor also showed officials more than $5,000 worth of damage to the house that he believed the Quaids caused.
Randy and Evi Quaid plead not guilty to fraud charges
The Quaids were then arrested on misdemeanor charges of felony residential burglary and entering a noncommercial building without consent. Evi Quaid was also charged with resisting arrest, according to the AP. Bail was set at $50,000 each.
The couple was arrested in Santa Barbara in April on outstanding warrants after showing up to court two weeks late stemming from a arrest in September 2009 for allegedly ducking out on a $10,000-plus hotel tab in Santa Barbara County. After not showing up for previous court hearings, they pleaded not guilty to fraud charges. The felony charges were later dropped against Randy, and Evi was sentenced to three years' probation and ordered to perform 240 hours of community service.

This morning, I was observed by Ali and Kahira and a member of the BOS/KEP team during my Year 12 English Alternative class. I had previously thought I had the Year 10 Social Studies class so I'd made up the resources that I had planned out during the weekend before staff briefing... needless to say I'm looking forward to that particular lesson later on today!! :)
This morning though with the Y12 students, I warned them about me getting observed and that in essence they were being observed too with their learning and with their understanding of the lessons and their interaction with me as their teacher.
It is always a bit nerve wracking having observers in your class but I actually enjoy it because it gives me reflection time and it also helps to remind me the point of why I'm a teacher and thinking about ways to improve my own teaching and development as a teacher.
My two areas that I have chosen to work on during the post-ob chat are co-construction and feed forward.

Google Offers Getting Out Of Pre-Paid Voucher Business
Google Offers is shifting from pre-paid vouchers to digital coupons exclusively. Previously, there was a mix of both. As a practical matter that means there will no longer be deals purchased up front that could expire without redemption. Instead, all deals will be incentives to buy online or visit a store, redeemable at the time of purchase.
According to AllThingsD Google is pledging to refund the value of pre-paid but unused vouchers. (I have several unused, expired vouchers but haven't received any such refund offer.)
Google Offers are currently distributed in multiple ways: through the Google Offers app, through Google Wallet (for Android and iOS), as online display ads and on the Google Maps app.
The daily deal market continues to exist but is limping along by comparison to the boom period of 2010 – 2011. And Groupon continues to diversify its business away from total reliance on pre-paid deals. It now sees itself broadly as a local commerce enabler with a range of marketing, payment and CRM products.
By the same token coupons are a perennial hit with consumers and have the documented capacity to influence purchase behavior more than any other form of advertising or marketing.
We're listening.

Yesterday was the official start of Spring and to mark the occasion, Walmart is launching a "Black Friday"-like sale for outdoor items. Black Friday, of course, kicks-off the Christmas shopping season and it's when retailers make most of their profits. But is there really a Black-Friday-like demand for gardening and outdoor supplies in the spring?
"The spring selling season is the most important season for homecenters when you talk about Lowes and Home Depot," said Drew Reading, a homecenter analyst at Bloomberg Industries.
"Last year, Home Depot's seasonal business was about 30 percent of their total sales for the year," Reading said. People are buying "things like outdoor power equipment, you know lawn mowers, live plants, patio sets and bar-b-ques."
Laura Kennedy, an analyst at Kantar Retail, said consumers spent about $30 billion dollars on these items last year. She adds that Walmart's Spring sale isn't new, Lowes and Home Depot have had similar sales for years now. And they have a loyal base.
"I believe Home Depot said that they're top garden customers visit four times as often as their other shoppers and so they're really in with the serious gardeners," she said.
Kennedy doesn't think Walmart wants to be a heavy weight in the home improvement business. Instead, it wants to pick off customers, who come in for the Spring deals, and hopefully get them hooked on buying other stuff.

Seared Walleye Recipe That Will Rock Your Dinner Date
Money can't buy love, but a quick way to anyone's heart is through his or her stomach.
This very simple walleye recipe will impress any dinner date, your family, or dinner guest.
Give it a try with the walleye you catch, and you will likely find a new favorite freshly-harvested fish dish.
Seared Walleye With Apple Cider Vinegar
- Walleye Fillets (4-6 medium sized fillets [15-20" fish] feed two people)
- Olive Oil
- 2 Tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
- Pam Cooking Spray
- 1 Tbsp. Dried Thyme
- 1 Tbsp. Dried Parsley
- 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
- 1 Tbsp. Season-All Seasoning Salt
- 1 Tbsp. Pepper
- Baking Sheet
- Medium-Large Frying Pan
- Spatula
- Oven
Preparing The Meal
- The first step to creating this dish is to oil the frying pan with olive oil. You want just enough oil to cover the entire bottom of the pan, but no more. Since we are not coating the fish, there is no need to use high amounts of oil.
- Heat the oil on medium heat for 3-5 minutes before adding the plain walleye fillets. Once the fish have been added to the pan, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- While the walleye fillets are being seared on one side, sprinkle one half of the seasonings over the fish. Cook for five minutes, flip, and repeat the seasoning. Cook for an additional five minutes.
- After the fish has been cooked on both sides for five minutes each, drizzle the apple cider vinegar over the fish (one side only) and turn the heat to medium high for about two minutes. This step reduces and lightly caramelizes the vinegar.
- While you are waiting for the vinegar to reduce, coat the baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Add the fish to the baking sheet and finish in the oven for approximately five minutes. Serve over rice or vegetables with your favorite side, and you'll have a meal that you'd probably pay $20 for at a nice restaurant.

This recipe is not only delicious and extremely beautiful, but it is also healthy. By using low amounts of fats and oils to cook the fish, this dish contains less calories and cholesterol than more traditional fish recipes.
The apple cider vinegar gives the fish a unique and robust flavor that will be sure to please whoever you're cooking for. Make sure to give it a try, and let us know what you think!

(Adds Chamber of Mines comment)
JOHANNESBURG, Oct 31 (Reuters) - South Africa's National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) said on Tuesday its coal workers would call a strike next week if wage demands were not met by the Chamber of Mines, the body that represents several mining firms in pay talks.
A strike in the coal sector could affect the nation's power supply, as most of it is generated from the fuel.
Labour unrest in the mining industry has cost South Africa billions of dollars in lost output in the past.
The union said it had given Chamber of Mines until Nov. 8 to increase the current wage offer.
If it failed to act, NUM spokesman Livhuwani Mammburu said: "We will declare a strike and that is going to have devastating economic consequences."
The chamber, which represents firms such as Anglo American Coal, Exxaro and Glencore, said the offers made were fair.
"The chamber believes that the offers made are fair and reasonable. Employees in the coal sector are amongst the highest paid employees in the mining industry," said the chamber's head of employment relations and lead negotiator for the coal industry, Motsamai Motlhamme.
The wage offers vary depending on the company. They range from a 5 percent to 7.5 percent increase in 2018 and in 2019 for the lowest paid workers. Some of the mining companies are also proposing once-off payments as part of the wage offers.
The union is demanding a once-off payment of 1,100 rand ($78) this year and an 8 percent increase for 2018.
The NUM's demands also include a 9 percent wage rise in 2019. The union said it would only sign a deal for a third year if the chamber agreed to stay in the collective bargaining forum.
The chamber and unions agreed in June to negotiate wages collectively for 2017, defusing a potential source of friction after NUM threatened to go on strike.
Much of the industry is still controlled by South Africa's white-minority more than two decades after demise of apartheid, while black people make up most of the labour force.
In a separate development, NUM said it had signed a two-year wage agreement with Modikwa Platinum Mine on Monday, a subsidiary of African Rainbow Minerals.

While waiting for Memebox, I ordered items from TesterKorea.com... As I ordered 5 items, it ended up like my little box for me!
This packaging looks cheap and hard to open, but I have high hopes in color!!
So, this was my substitute for the Innisfree box Memebox cancelled. Not the cheapest but satisfying as I picked every item ;-) I initially had issues using my credit card, but once straightened out (used paypal) it was processes quickly. Still took 3 weeks due to holidays....
Anyhow, happy about my TK haul. Happy holidays you all!

BMI - Model BMC-HR - High Rate Dissolved Air Flotation System
Modern concept for circular shaped DAF systems: High rate dissolved air flotation units BMC-HR, are innovative high rate machines, developed as a result of long experience and experimentation, where the flotation process fulfils each of the third generation technologies, as defined in the acts of the most recent international specific conferences (Helsinki 2000 and Seoul 2007).
Most popular related searches
Features and Functionality
- Flocculation under turbulence followed by distribution into a microbubble cloud, obtained in a particular reaction chamber, built into the flotation tank, where aggregation kinetics are optimised;
- Optimized inlet to the DAF separation with uniform flow distribution that optimises microbubbles adsorption;
- High dewatering percentage of the surface sludge removed, obtained by means of a spillway surface with variable speed exhaust operating at 360° with discharge into an annular collecting chamber;
- High slope bottoms for collecting and manual or automatic removal of any regimented material;
- Clarified effluent discharge through a telescopic valve with manual or automatic control to suit the needs of variable flow operation;
- Saturation of the recycled effluent obtained with different systems depending on specific requests and/or applications;
- There is no possibility of obstruction in the tank, therefore minimized maintenance and management;
- Separation of the different sectors that form the DAF tank without means of any kind of mechanical seals, which in time are subject to wear and/or continuous maintenance;
- Built entirely from stainless materials. Stainless Steel 304 (316 optional) and polypropylene;
- Footprint reduced by 50 - 70% compared to conventional DAF systems.
This type of machines are suitable for treatment of surface water, as well as separation device after any coagulation/flocculation process of industrial effluents or as upstream treatment for biological systems, to reduce the organic loading and removal of fat or tertiary treatment downstream of inefficient or inadequate settlers or clarifiers.
Main Applications
- Primary treatment of surface water
- Tertiary treatment of municipal wastewater and industrial slaughter and meat processing plants
- Fish Processing Industries
- of dairy and / or production of Manufacture butter and margarine
- Food in general
- Petrochemical Industry
- Textiles
- Industrial Laundries
- Cosmetic Industry
- Enhancement of biological systems with the possibility of pre-treatment or tertiary treatment
The combination of a good filtration, followed by flocculation and dissolved air flotation may allow reduction of COD values of up to 85%, removal of grease and oil above 95% and suspended solids up to 98%.
The values of reduction are variable depending on wastewater source and degree of pollution as well as percentage of colloids in the effluent.
Complete Machines
The range of smaller units, which brought in 5 standard models cover treatment from 2 to 25 m3/h, are completely prefabricated and ready for start up, except hydraulic feeding and discharge connection that need to be sorted on site. The structure is fully manufactured in stainless steel AISI 304. The main service equipment, such as saturation group, recirculation pump and air compressor are also part of the machine and fully assembled on board.
To meet the needs of limited space, minimizing the necessary structures in place and installation, in many situations all utilities serving the process, such as equipment for the chemical pre-treatment, automation etc.. are housed in air-conditioned fully assembled prefabricated boxes with plumbing and electrical connections already made ready for commissioning.
Prefabricated Machines
The units for medium and large flows, made of 8 standard models covering course of treatment from 30 to 150 m3/h are completely prefabricated transportable machines.
The main service equipment, such as saturation group, recirculation pump and air compressor are generally assembled on independent skid that needs to be positioned in site adjacent to the flotation unit.
All machines require no assembly or special fittings to be carried out on site, and no special support structures but only limited hydraulic connections for feeding and discharge as well as interconnection with the saturation skid to be sorted.

What in-camera editing functions does the FE-120 offer?
The FE-120 lets you resize your stored still images, add frames (borders) to them and apply black-and-white or sepia filters to them. It allows you to snip clips from your movies and save the excerpts as separate files, and it also lets you create a Frame Index - a still image file consisting of nine separate images excerpted at regular intervals from a movie file. The Frame Index provides a representative look at the content of the entire movie.
What Auto Focus method does the FE-120 use?
The FE-120 uses iESP (Intelligent Electro Selective Pattern) auto focus. In this mode, the camera determines what subject to give focus. It analyzes the entire image and detects the area of greatest contrast (generally, this will be the border where your subject meets the background) and focuses on that area. For this reason, focusing is possible even when the subject is not in the center of the frame.
Is it possible to manually focus the FE-120?
Occasionally it is desirable to have the ability to manually focus a digital camera. A good example is shooting through the windows of a tour bus on a rainy day. The camera may choose to focus on the raindrops on the window rather than the actual subject.
Although the FE-120 does not offer a manual focus mode, you can use the Focus Lock feature to force the camera to focus on your intended subject.
First, choose a test subject that is as close to the camera as your intended subject. Compose the shot in the LCD monitor. Press the shutter button halfway down; the camera will automatically focus on the test subject. The focus will be locked at this distance until you release the shutter button or take the picture. Re-compose your shot using the intended target, and then press the shutter button all the way down.
TIP: If you see a blinking green light in the upper left of the LCD monitor when composing your shot, the focus and exposure are not adjusted properly. Try locking the focus again.
Does the FE-120 support a Macro mode?
Yes. The FE-120's Macro mode has an operating range of 7.9" (.2 meters) to 23.6" (.6 meters). This means that your subject must be between 7.9" and 23.6" away from the camera in order to be in focus.
To use Macro mode, first press the shooting mode button (red camera icon). Next, press the Up arrow toward the icon of the flower. This will launch the Macro mode menu. Use the Up or Down arrows to select the Macro icon (flower), and then press the [OK] button to activate the selection.
Does the FE-120 support a Super Macro mode?
Yes. The FE-120's Super Macro mode has an operating distance of .8" (20mm). The zoom is fixed in Super Macro mode, and the flash is disabled..
To use Super Macro mode, first press the shooting mode button (red camera icon). Next, press the Up arrow toward the icon of a flower. This will launch the Macro mode menu. Use the Up or Down arrows to select the Super Macro icon (flower preceded by the letter "s"), and then press the [OK] button to activate the selection.
What metering mode does the FE-120 offer?
The FE-120 supports Digital ESP multi-pattern metering. This approach meters separately the brightness at the center of the frame and that of the surrounding area in order to produce an exposure with balanced brightness.
Can I change ISO sensitivity in the FE-120?
No. The FE-120 automatically sets ISO sensitivity in all shooting modes. Its range is equivalent in 35mm photography to ISO 50-320.
Can I change the white balance in the FE-120?
Yes, in Program Auto mode it is possible to manually set the white balance. The FE-120 automatically sets the White Balance in Full Auto mode and in Scene mode.
What software is bundled with the FE-120? What can it do?
OLYMPUS Master is application software for editing images taken with a digital camera on a computer. Installing it on your computer lets you do the following:
For details regarding these and other functions and operations, refer to the application's "Help" guide and the OLYMPUS Master reference manual.
1Art and 3-D effects require serial number provided with specially marked Olympus brand Type M and Type H xD-Picture Card media. The features are also available in the OLYMPUS Master Plus upgrade.
What kind of batteries should I use to power my FE-120?
The FE-120 accepts two "AA" nickel metal hydride or alkaline batteries, or one lithium (CR-V3) battery pack. "AA" manganese (Zinc-Carbon) batteries cannot be used with the FE-120.
NiMH batteries are more economical in the long run because they are rechargeable. If you choose to use alkaline batteries, purchase products with capacity ratings of 2300 mAh (milliamp-hours) or higher and that state on the label they are designed for high-drain electronic devices such as digital cameras.
Olympus brand NiMH batteries are intended for use only with Olympus digital cameras. Do not use these batteries with any other device.
Does Olympus sell a battery charger compatible with my FE-120?
Olympus offers a NiMH Quick Charger and Battery Set (B-90SU), which includes the BU-400 NiMH Quick Charger and four AA-size 2300mAh NiMH rechargeable batteries. The charger can hold up to four AA or two AA and two AAA batteries and can charge them simultaneously.
The kit (Item #200899) can be purchased from Olympus' online store. To order, click here.
How long will it take to recharge my NiMH batteries?
The BU-400 NiMH Quick Charger can recharge two AA NiMH batteries in about two hours, and it can charge four in about 4 Ľ hours. New NiMH batteries come partially charged, so the first time you charge them should take less time than subsequent charges.
Does Olympus sell an AC adapter compatible with my FE-120?
Olympus offers a 110/120 volt AC adapter (E-7AU). It is ideal for conserving battery life and is especially useful when downloading files to a computer, for extended work in a studio, during printing, or when viewing images while connected to your TV or VCR.
Do not connect or disconnect the AC adapter while the camera is turned on. Doing so could affect the camera's internal settings or functions. Be sure to read the instruction manual for the AC adapter.
To purchase the E-7AU AC adapter (Item #200751-410) from Olympus' online store, click here.
Are my rechargeable batteries being charged when the AC adapter is plugged in to the FE-120?
No. When the AC adapter is connected, power is drawn from the AC current even if there are batteries in the camera. Rechargeable batteries are not recharged when the AC adapter is in use.
Olympus recommends using the BU-400 NiMH Quick Charger to charge your NiMH batteries for use in the FE-120.
Do I need to have a computer to share my images and movies?
No. You can show off your images and movies by using the LCD monitor. There are also many photo-processing centers that can make traditional photo prints from your digital files.
Note: Any shots recorded to the camera's internal memory must first be transferred to a supported memory card in order to be printed at a commercial photo-processing center. Use the BACKUP feature to transfer data from internal memory to a media card.
To realize the full capabilities of your digital camera, a computer is recommended.
Where can I find the documentation for my camera?
The FE-120 is packaged with a printed Quick Start Guide, a Basic Manual and an Advanced Manual. The printed manual that is included with the camera is a basic manual that introduces the camera's features and offers an overview of care and usage tips. The Advanced Manual is in PDF format; it can be found on the CD-ROM included with the camera. Adobe Acrobat software, which is also provided on CD-ROM, is necessary to view the PDF file.
The manuals can also be downloaded from the product support page for this model on the Olympus web site.
Should I charge NiMH batteries before using them in the FE-120?
Must my NiMH batteries be completely drained before I re-charge them?
It depends on the batteries' manufacturer. Repeatedly re-charging Olympus brand NiMH batteries before using up their capacity will shorten the life of the batteries per charge.
Can I use non-Olympus brand xD-Picture Card media in the FE-120?
The FE-120 will accept third-party xD-Picture Card media. However, Olympus brand xD-Picture Card media are required to use the [PANORAMA] camera function and certain image-enhancing effects available in the included Olympus Master software.
Can I move images from the internal memory to a flash memory card?
Yes, the [BACK UP] feature will transfer images from the camera's internal memory to an xD-Picture Card™ flash memory card. It does not, however, delete those images from the internal memory.
To perform a backup, insert an xD-Picture Card flash memory card into the camera and then turn the camera on. Press the [MENU] button, located beneath the LCD monitor. Use the Up or Down arrow to navigate to [BACK UP]. Press the Right arrow to advance to the next menu. Use the Up or Down arrow to select [YES]. Press the [OK] button to start the file transfer.
The backup procedure takes some time. It is recommended that you fully charge your battery before performing a backup.
Note: It is not possible to copy images from the media card to the camera's internal memory.
How do I know if the FE-120 is recording to its internal memory or to my flash memory card?
The internal memory and a removable memory card cannot be used at the same time. When a supported memory card is inserted into the camera, captured images and movies are no longer written to the internal memory. To use the internal memory, you must remove the memory card.
The FE-120 indicates which memory mode is active by displaying a memory status icon on the LCD screen. It will show [IN] when it is using internal memory and [xD] when it is working with xD-Picture Card™ flash memory media.
In all shooting modes, the memory status icon will appear in the lower right corner of the LCD screen, just above the remaining capacity value. In Playback mode, the icon will appear along the top of the LCD screen.
Which image quality mode should I use when I shoot my images?
The best way to determine which image quality mode is best for any shot is to decide – before you shoot – how you will use the captured image.
The default HQ mode is ideal if you plan to print your images in the standard 4" x 6" snapshot size. It's great for scrapbooking or for printing from the kiosks often found at drugstores, camera stores or retailers with on-site photo-processing labs.
If you are planning to e-mail your images or post them to a web site, use an image quality mode with a lower resolution, such as SQ1. The images will still look great when viewed on a computer, and their smaller file sizes will allow you to store more images on your media card.
Generally speaking, you should only use the highest-quality option if you are planning to print the images larger than 4" x 6" or if you intend to use them for professional or commercial purposes.
How can I review my images in the camera?
By default, the FE-120 will briefly display the last image taken after the shutter button is released. If you would like a longer look, press the playback mode button (green arrow icon). You will then have three options:
How can I change the number of images displayed at one time in Index playback mode?
The number of images displayed in Index mode is determined by the Index setting on the Playback menu. To change this value, first press the Playback mode button (green arrow icon), and then press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Right arrow button to access the Mode Menu. Press the Down arrow repeatedly to reach the Setup menu. Press the Right arrow button to access the Setup menu settings. Use the Up or Down arrow to scroll through the menu to the Index item (grid icon). Press the Right arrow to activate the Index options submenu. Use the Up or Down arrow to select the desired number of frames. Then press the [OK/MENU] button twice to exit the menus.
How can I change the transition format of my slideshows?
The FE-120 offers four transition options for its slideshows: [Normal], [Slide], [Fader], and [Zoom]. The default is [Normal.] To select a different transition option, press the Playback mode button (green arrow icon), and then press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Right arrow button to access the Mode menu. Press the Down arrow repeatedly to select the Setup menu. Next, press the Right arrow button to access the Setup menu options. Press the Up arrow to select the Slideshow Setup item (icon of three photographs beside the word "Setup"). Press the Right arrow button to reveal the transition options. Use the Up or Down arrow to select the desired transition. Finally, press the [OK/MENU] button twice to activate the selection and exit the menu.
How do I set the date and time on the FE-120?
The easiest way to access the clock controls is to turn the mode dial to [AUTO], press the [OK/MENU] button, and then press the Down arrow button to select the clock icon.
Use the Up and Down arrow to select a date format, and then press the Right arrow. Set the month, day, year, hour and minutes using the following procedure: Use the Up and Down arrows to select values, and press the Right arrow to advance to the next item. (The FE-120 uses a 24-hour clock.) When all information has been entered, press the [OK/MENU] button to set the values and exit the menu.
The date and time settings will be returned to the factory defaults if the camera is left without batteries for approximately three days. Custom settings may be canceled more quickly if the batteries were only loaded into the camera for a short time before being removed. Before taking important pictures, check that the date and time are correct.
How do I change the display language of the menus?
The easiest way to change the language of the display menus is to turn the mode dial to [AUTO], press the [OK/MENU] button and then press the Right arrow button to access the Setup menu. Next, use the Down arrow button to navigate to the icon of the head and word balloon. Press the Right arrow to enter the language menu. Use the Up or Down arrow to choose a new language, and then press the [OK/MENU] button twice to activate the new setting and exit the menu.
Is there a way to add additional display languages to my camera?
The FE-120 has built-in support for four languages: English, Spanish, French and Portuguese. A fifth language of your choice can be added via a firmware download. There is no charge associated with this download.
To add a language, you must first install onto a computer the Olympus Master software that was packaged with your camera. After installation, use the included USB cable to connect the camera to the computer. Launch Olympus Master, click on the "Update Camera" icon, and follow the on-screen prompts. (An Internet connection is required for this function.)
The following warning will appear during the installation of the additional language: "Once the firmware is updated, it cannot be returned to the previous menu."
The original languages will remain in the camera, and the new one will be appended to the bottom of the menu. Once added, the new language can be enabled just as you would choose any other supported language. If you later wish to add another language, you may exchange the fifth language for any one of the other languages available via the firmware download by repeating this process.
How do I adjust the exposure value (EV) in the FE-120?
First, press the shooting mode button (red camera icon). Next, turn the mode dial to any setting except [AUTO]. Press the Down arrow in the direction of the exposure compensation icon ("+" and "-" signs against a background split diagonally between black and white). Then use the arrow pad to make the image brighter (Up arrow) or darker (Down arrow). The value can be adjusted +/- 2 EV in 1/2 EV increments. Press the [OK/MENU] button to apply the setting.
Note: Exposure compensation may not produce the desired brightness on the subject if the area in the frame surrounding the subject is extremely bright or extremely dark.
How do I adjust the white balance in the FE-120?
With the mode dial set to Program Auto mode ("P"), press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Right arrow button to access the Mode menu. Use the Down arrow to choose the [Picture] menu, and then press the Right arrow button to select [WB]. Press the Right arrow button again to view the available white balance options. Use the Up or Down arrow button to select the desired setting, and then press the [OK/MENU] button again to activate the selection.
Note: In scene mode, some scenes will automatically adjust the White Balance, ignoring the setting defined on this menu.
Will my custom settings be retained after I turn off the power?
The [ALL RESET] feature gives you the flexibility to decide. When [ALL RESET] is set to [OFF], your custom settings will be retained when the power is turned off. When [ALL RESET] is set to [ON], the factory default settings will be restored each time the power is turned off.
To restore the factory default settings, turn the mode dial to [AUTO] and then press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Right arrow button to access the [SETUP] menu. Next, press the Down arrow button to reach [ALL RESET]. Press the Right arrow button to access the reset options, and use the Up or Down arrow to select [ON]. Press the [OK/MENU] button twice to activate the setting and exit the menu. The next time the camera is powered off, the factory default settings will be enabled.
Note: In the absence of battery power, custom settings will be retained for about three days. After that, the original factory default settings will be restored.
Can the FE-120 capture audio along with my still images and movies?
No. The FE-120 does not have a microphone, so it cannot record audio with your still images or movies.
How do I erase an image that I do not wish to keep?
First, press the Playback mode button (green arrow icon). Use the arrow pad to scroll through your saved images and select the one you wish to delete. Then press the Erase button (red trashcan icon). Next, use the Up or Down arrow to select "Yes." Finally, press the [OK/MENU] button to erase the selected image or movie file.
Erased files cannot be retrieved, so use this feature carefully.
How can I erase all my images at once?
The FE-120 includes an [ALL ERASE] function to quickly and conveniently remove all files saved to the internal memory or to a media card. To use this feature, first press the Playback mode button (green arrow icon). Next, press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Right arrow button to access the Mode menu. Use the Down arrow button to navigate to [CARD]. Press the Right arrow to advance to the CARD options submenu. By default, [ALL ERASE] will already be selected. Press the Right arrow button to advance to the next screen. Use the Up arrow button to select [YES], and then press the [OK/MENU] button. All unprotected images and movie files will be removed.
What can I do to prevent accidental file deletion?
The Protect feature prevents selected files from being deleted even when an [ERASE] or [ALL ERASE] function is performed. However, protected files will be deleted by a [FORMAT] operation.
To protect a file, first press the Playback mode button (green arrow icon). Use the arrow pad to scroll through your saved files and find the one you wish to protect. Press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Down arrow to select the Protect button (key icon). The selected image or movie file will be protected. To remove the protection, simply repeat the procedure.
When a file is protected, a green key icon appears atop its preview whenever that file is displayed on the camera's LCD screen. The key is displayed even when the camera is set to Index mode.
I purchased the FE-120, and the box was missing a component. How do I get a replacement?
Please visit the Olympus Customer Service web site to report the missing component. Click here, fill out the requested fields, and then click Send to submit your request for assistance form. Please allow up to 48 hours for our Customer Service Representatives to respond via e-mail to your question.
The FE-120 does not recognize my flash memory card. What can I do?
First, refer to the xD-Picture Card™ Compatibility Chart to verify that the card is supported in your model. If the card is not supported, return it to the store where you purchased it.
The FE-120 may not recognize a non-Olympus brand memory card or a card that has been formatted on another device, such as a card reader or personal computer. As a general rule, xD-Picture Card media should only be formatted in the camera. Card readers should only be used to copy files from the memory card to an external device.
You may be able to use the card with this camera if you format it in the camera.
Warning: Formatting a memory card will delete all content on the card.
When I put my xD-Picture Card flash memory card into my camera and turn it on, I get a "Card Error" message. What can I do?
This message occurs when the camera is unable to recognize the memory card or when an attempt to format a card fails.
If you see this message after inserting a brand new card, refer to the xD-Picture Card Compatibility Chart to verify that the card is supported in your model. If the card is not supported, return it to the store where you purchased it.
If the card is supported, it may need to be cleaned. Wipe the gold contacts of the card with alcohol using a soft cloth or tissue. When the contacts are dry, insert the card and turn the camera on.
If the Card Error message still appears, remove the card and insert a different (supported) card into the camera. If the camera reads the second card, then the camera is working properly and the problem lies with the original card.
You may be able to use the card if you format it in the camera.
Warning: Formatting a memory card will delete all content on the card.
If you receive this error message after a failed attempt to format the memory card, the card may be defective. For assistance, contact Olympus' Customer Service and Repair Center using any of the following methods:
Phone: 800-622-6372
E-mail: email@example.com
URL: http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/cpg_servicerepair.asp
Note: Olympus does not offer a service to recover data from corrupted memory cards; however, a number of companies do offer this service. In addition, commercial software now exists that may help you to retrieve files from a corrupt card. Olympus does not endorse any particular brand, but you can find many applicable products by searching the Internet for "Digital image recovery."
I am no longer able to display images that I saved to my camera's internal memory. I can only see images that were saved to my memory card. How can I see my other images?
When a memory card has been inserted into the camera, the pictures in the internal memory cannot be played back. Turn off the camera. Pull out the memory card. Then you will be able to view images in your camera's internal memory.
Every time I turn off my camera, my custom settings are discarded. How can I retain them for use the next time I turn on the camera?
Change the [ALL RESET] value to [OFF].
To do so, turn the mode dial to [AUTO] and then press the [OK/MENU] button. Press the Right arrow button to access the [SETUP] menu. Next, press the Down arrow button to reach [ALL RESET]. Press the Right arrow button to access the reset options, and use the Up or Down arrow to select [OFF]. Press the [OK/MENU] button twice to activate the setting and exit the menu.
What should I do if I cannot focus on a particular subject?
Try the FOCUS LOCK feature. This feature allows you to focus on a subject roughly the same distance away from you as the intended subject and then re-compose your picture without losing that focus.
First, choose a subject that is as close to the camera as your intended subject. Compose the shot using the LCD monitor. Press the shutter button halfway down; the camera will automatically focus on the test subject. The focus will be locked at the appropriate distance until you release the shutter button or take the picture. Re-compose your shot using the intended target, and then press the shutter button all the way down.
TIP: If you see a blinking green light on the monitor when composing your shot, the focus and exposure are not adjusted properly. Try locking the focus again.
A small, bright dot always appears in the same spot on all my downloaded images. What can I do?
This is caused by the failure of one or more pixels on the CCD. Run the Pixel Mapping feature to check and adjust the CCD sensor and image-processing functions. Wait about one minute after taking or viewing pictures to allow the Pixel Mapping function to perform properly. If the camera is turned off during pixel mapping, you must start over.
To do so, first press the shooting mode button (red camera icon). Next, press the [Menu] button. Use the arrow pad to select [PIXEL MAPPING], then press the Right arrow to advance to the next menu. Use the Up or Down arrow to select [START]. Press the [OK] button to activate pixel mapping.
Once the process has completed, the bright dot should no longer appear in images you subsequently capture and download.
To learn more about how Pixel Mapping works, click here.
I want to use a camera function, but it is not accessible from the menu. What is wrong?
The following functions are disabled unless an xD-Picture Card™ is inserted into the camera's media slot: [BACKUP], [FORMAT], [PANORAMA].
When I print images on my printer or take them to my local photo lab for 4"x6" prints, the top and bottom of my pictures are cut off. Why is this happening?
The FE-120 shoots in a default aspect ratio of 4:3. A 4"x6" print has an aspect ratio of 3:2. Therefore, an image taken with the FE-120 contains more information than can fit in a 4"x6" frame. When the image is enlarged and centered in the 3:2 frame, a little bit of the image is cut off the top and bottom.
I can rotate some of my pictures in Playback mode, but not all of them. Why not?
The images that cannot be rotated may be Protected, or they may not have been taken by this camera.
The [ROTATE] tool alters a digital file by modifying its layout. However, the Protect tool prohibits changes to Protected digital files. Therefore, Protected files cannot be rotated.
If you wish to rotate a Protected image, you must first remove the Protection. Then you can use the [ROTATE] tool to turn the image. You can re-apply the Protection to the file after it has been rotated.
Images taken by other cameras can be input to the FE-120 via removable media cards. Such pictures can be identified by their Playback size. The images will appear smaller in the LCD monitor (e.g. not full-screen) and will be surrounded by a black border. These images may not be able to be rotated.
Movie files cannot be rotated. Movies are identified by the green movie projector icons that appear over the files when the camera is in Playback mode.
Why do I get blurry images?
Blurry images are often the result of movement during image capture. Either the camera was not held still – a phenomenon called "camera shake" – or the subject was moving and the camera did not fire with a fast enough shutter speed to freeze the action.
Click here for tips on how to prevent blurry pictures.
Why are my images blurry when I shoot in "Night Scene" mode?
Night Scene mode is designed to help you capture better exposures outdoors in low-light conditions. The camera holds the shutter open longer than it would in other situations, allowing more light to reach the CCD. Because the shutter is open longer, it is very important to keep both the camera and the subject still. Camera motion during image capture will result in blurry pictures.
Click here for more information on Night Scene mode.
In portraits taken indoors or in low light, my subject's eyes are unnaturally red. How can I prevent this from happening?
The effect known as "red-eye" occurs when the light emitted from the camera flash bounces off the back of the subject's retina. The red color is picked up from the blood vessels behind the eyes and displayed in the resulting image.
To avoid or minimize red-eye when shooting in low light with the flash, use Red-Eye Reduction mode. In this mode, the flash fires a few bursts before the shot is actually taken. The bursts of light cause the pupils of your subject's eyes to contract, providing a smaller angle through which the reflected light can escape. The result is that the effect of the reflected light is less noticeable in your captured images.
To enable Red-Eye Reduction mode, first put the camera in any shooting mode and then press the Right arrow button toward the jagged arrow icon. Press the Down arrow button to select the button with the eye icon. Press the [OK/MENU] button to activate the mode.
How can I correct "red-eye" in my existing images?
The Olympus Master software bundled with the FE-120 has a feature that can remove or minimize the effects of "red-eye" in existing images. It can even be used to remove or minimize green or blue reflections commonly seen in the eyes of wildlife.
To use the tool, launch Olympus Master and click on the "Browse Images" icon. Select a picture to edit and then press the Edit button on the menu. (A dialog will appear; click on the [OK] button to close it.) Press the Red-Eye icon on the toolbar. A window will open on the right side of the application. Follow the instructions in this window to correct the red-eye in your selected image. When finished, press the "Apply" button.
Press the Back button to return to the Browse view.
Why do the whites (or blacks) in my pictures look so gray?
Your camera's exposure system evaluates light reflecting from your subject and selects an aperture and shutter speed combination that will represent your subject in an approximate average tone (not too bright and not too dark). Pros refer to this as "18% gray." This works well for almost all your shooting situations except when your subject happens to be darker or lighter than an average tone.
The FE-120 allows you to override the exposure value in order to intentionally brighten or darken your images. Click here for more information on when and how to manually adjust the camera's exposure value.
Additionally, the FE-120 gives you another option for capturing images that contain lots of white space. The "Snow" shooting mode is calibrated to amplify bright whites in order to make pictures taken in snowy conditions more vibrant. You may be able to use the Snow scene mode to achieve better results capturing images whose foregrounds or backgrounds are dominated by whites.
All of the shots I take indoors have a {yellowish | greenish | etc.} tint. Why is that?
Possibly, the light source used to illuminate the subjects of your pictures was different from what the camera expected.
All light has a particular wavelength, which is associated with a specific color and temperature (measured in degrees Kelvin). The flash on the FE-120 is balanced to the temperature of midday sunlight – about 5500 degrees K. Tungsten light bulbs such as are found in common household lamps have a color temperature of about 3200 degrees K; these emit a yellowish aura. Fluorescent bulbs, often found in offices, tend to be more in the range of 4000 degrees K and generate light in the green spectrum.
The human eye automatically adjusts so that, for example, the color white always looks white regardless of the light source. However, a digital camera's CCD can detect subtle variations in temperature; these gradations are most visible on a white subject.
By default, the FE-120 will attempt to correctly determine what white should look like for any given light source via Auto White Balance. It does this by determining how strongly the light deviates from neutral white light and then calibrating all color temperatures to scale so that white looks white on your images. However, sometimes it will be necessary to "tell" the camera what type of light source your are shooting under to achieve better color reproduction.
In Program Auto mode, the FE-120 lets you set the white balance to one of four pre-set color temperatures – that of sunny daylight, cloudy daylight, tungsten lamp, or fluorescent lamp. Choosing a specific white balance setting optimizes the camera to reproduce colors correctly under that light source rather then relying on a comparative calibration process such as Auto White Balance. Keep in mind; if you manually change the white balance setting from the default (AUTO) and take new images in Program Auto mode, the camera will use the pre-set white balance value you chose previously, even if it is not appropriate for the current shot. Simply change White Balance back to Auto.
If your prints consistently show an unnatural tint, check to see that the white balance setting is appropriate for your shooting conditions.

BBC Moves More Staff to Salford's MediaCityUK
Following the announcement that BBC Breakfast will move to MediaCityUK next year, the broadcasting corporation have today announced that more jobs are set to relocate to Salford as part of their on-going commitment to the North.
Key teams from Marketing, Communications & Audiences (MC&A) and Future Media & Technology (FM&T) have been informed that their jobs will relocate to Salford.
According to a press release, the move will allow the BBC to build "new and exciting" content and platforms for audiences, and is expected to bring greater benefit from the North West's already well-established digital economy.
Just over 200 roles from BBC Breakfast, Marketing, MC&A and FM&T will be relocated, which is part of the BBC's commitment to move 1,500 roles out of London to join the 800 staff from BBC Manchester that will also be moving.
Peter Salmon, Director of BBC North, said: "The past two days have been a real shot in the arm for BBC North and for audiences across the UK."
He added: "This fresh wave of journalists, audience specialists and technology experts enhances the site as a major centre for the creative industries and builds on the region's heritage for great journalism and innovation.
"This reflects the federation of departments we will have in the north, a genuine cross section of the organisation, and how it is really in the interests of the whole BBC to make this a success."
The BBC's Director of Future Media and Technology, Erik Huggers, said that BBC Online is set to become the "universal gateway to the past, present, and future of the BBC", and that they are committed to building a strong BBC presence in the North "with FM&T at its heart".
He added: "Moving our connected TV and mobile product teams north, together with a core part of BBC Online, is very much part of realising this vision."
To date, the departments that are moving to Salford Quays in 2011 are BBC North, BBC Sport, BBC Breakfast, BBC Children's, Radio 5 Live, Learning, parts of Future Media & Technology and all teams based at BBC Manchester.
The move of BBC Breakfast will make it the first BBC network news programme to be made outside of London.

Anastasia is the oldest child of a family living in the Black Forest. She is a young girl who loves school and keeps busy by helping take care of her younger siblings. Anastasia is forced to grow up fast as children had to do in the past. There is not a lot of time to play when you have to help take care of a home and help raise your younger siblings. Her Mother appears to have depression as a result of losing infant(s) after childbirth. As a child Anastasia did not understand her Mother being withdrawn and at times distant. It was only when she was older and a parent herself, did she understand what it is to live with loss.
When Anastasia is nine years old her parents give her a new dress and a leather bound book of days. A book in which she can write her thought, feelings and emotions. As she begins to write, the reader learns about her life and the lives of her children living in what we now know as Germany. In that book, Anastasia tells of her relationships, her hardships, her hopes for her children and of her close relationship with her sister.
Anastasia never marries but knows of love. Her first love went off to war and never returned. She had relationships with two other men and became the Mother of three children with two of the children surviving. Anastasia served as her father's apprentice for many years and learned a trade which helped her to care for herself and her family. She worked hard and struggled to survive in a time when being an unwed Mother was not acceptable.
Although she is an unwed Mother, living in a time where it is difficult for a woman to be on her own, she manages to survive and raise her family. Anastasia finds a way to have a full life even when times are hard. She loves her children, her Grandchildren and maintains a close relationship with her sister.
Anastasia Burkart is the Author's great-grandmother and lived from 1796 to 1873. This book is a labor of love where the Author has pieced together facts, family history, and world history in order to tell the tale of her relative.
I found the book to be a fast read. I found the book to be very well written and captivating. Fans of Historical Fiction will enjoy this glimpse into the past and into the life of a woman who live a somewhat modern life in not so modern times.

Savills Studley Negotiates Early Lease Restructure for Gallo Vitucci Klar LLP
13 May 2016
Savills Studley announces that Gallo Vitucci Klar LLP (GVK) has signed a long-term lease for 12,000 square feet at 90 Broad Street for its New York offices. The civil litigation defense firm currently occupies 19,000 square feet across the third floor in the building and will restructure its current lease to occupy a portion of the 12th floor while relocating a portion of its operations to 100 Crossways Park Drive West, Woodbury, New York in Long Island. Asking rents were $48 per square foot.
Savills Studley Executive Managing Director Marc Shapses, Senior Managing Director Roi Shleifer and Managing Director Oliver Petrovic represented the tenant, GVK, in the transaction. The landlord, Princeton International, was represented by Scott Cahaly of JLL. Doug Furer of Mariner Real Estate Services, LLC co-brokered the Long Island transaction alongside Savills.
According to Shapses, the law firm began evaluating its real estate options nearly four years ago, which enabled the firm to evaluate a number of opportunities across the market.
"By beginning the process early we were able to secure the future for GVK and be strategic about its space use and costs," Shapses said.
This is a great transaction for GVK. It simultaneously allows us to continue our strong growth while also reducing our expense" said Howard Klar, Managing Partner of Gallo Vitucci Klar.
Gallo Vitucci Klar LLP is a leading law firm to corporations and the insurance industry. GVK's 60 lawyers in New York and New Jersey provide its clients the highest quality legal representation and counseling.

Lukewarm Stove: Cubs Negotiating with Pitcher Paul Maholm
The Chicago Cubs, so far this offseason, are taking a decidedly clear approach to new player acquisitions: bounce-back candidates on the cheap.
That is not to say the team won't still be making plays for bigger names, but, for now, they're content to go after guys like David DeJesus, Ian Stewart, and … Paul Maholm.
The Cubs are currently negotiating with the free agent lefty, formerly of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Maholm, 29, is coming off a solid, if unspectacular season, which saw him put up a 3.66 ERA and 1.294 WHIP in 162.1 innings. His 105 ERA+, only the second above-average full season in his career, suggests he was only marginally better than OK, though. On the right contract – read: cheap – Maholm could be a fine back-end of the rotation type, especially if he's paired with an improved defensive infield (he's a ground ball pitcher who doesn't strike too many out).
The rub with Maholm?
He pitched only 162.1 innings last year because his year ended early with a shoulder strain (though Dr. James Andrews found no serious structural damage). He was cleared for workouts in late October, but there's no guarantee he'll be as effective when he returns next year.
If the Cubs do ink Maholm, it's hard to picture him as someone they can count on for more than depth given his erratic performance and shoulder trouble. At best, a Maholm signing would fall into the same categories as the DeJesus signing and the Stewart trade: fine, but nothing exciting. And judgement would be more fully-reserved until the rest of the offseason plays out.
