The HINTS project "Next Generation Hybrid Interfaces for Spintronic Applications" |
(Nanowerk News) The project HINTS, launched last 1st June 2011, has achieved its first year of life. The first results have been achieved and have been presented in Valencia, the 31st may 2012. The HINTS project, full title: "Next Generation Hybrid Interfaces for Spintronic Applications", is funded with 3,874,360.00 Euro granted by the European Commission in the 7th Framework Programme. | |
HINTS aims at advancing Spintronics by developing new hybrid organic-inorganic (HOI) materials featuring strong and tuneable spin-transfer efficiency at the interfaces. One of the main characteristics of all organic based ICT devices is the intrinsic hybrid combination of organic active materials with inorganic electrodes. Their greatest advantage is the possibility of low-cost processing and the enormous choice of molecules, most of which are still unexplored. Crucially most of the properties of the hybrids are determined by their interfaces so that the ability to tailor the degree of interaction between organic and inorganic materials impacts the functioning of entire devices and of the electronic properties of the composite materials in general. | |
The ambitious approach of HINTS is implemented by designing new materials with improved spin transfer efficiency and transport. HINTS will constantly benchmark the material parameters and properties with device demands. Thus the development and the selection of HOI materials will proceed in close collaboration with and with constant feedback from the industrial and SME partners, and the entire consortium will maintain awareness of the intermediate and final ICT needs (device aspects). The project is developing hybrid materials which exhibit the following interface functionalities: | |
The project has now achieved the first year of life and this was characterized by a set of encouraging results among which we can mention 1) the achievement of strong GMR modulation via both proxity effect and electrical gating at spin injecting and collecting hybrid interfaces, 2) promissing preliminary results of SAM assisted TMR junctions, 3) extraordinary first observation of the GMR inversion in a GMR device via electrical field gating and 4) first modification/adjustment of the technological tools (effusion cells) as required by the needs driven by HINTS objectives. | |
The HINTS project (full title: "Next Generation Hybrid Interfaces for Spintronic Applications") is funded with 3,874,360.00 Euro granted by the European Commission in the 7th Framework Programme, coordinated by Dr. Valentin Dediu of the Institute for the Study of Nanostructured Materials - ISMN (Italy), and carried out by a consortium of 14 leading research institutions coming from 8 Countries, each of them with specific roles and different levels of involvement. The consortium is composed by 7 Universities, 3 Research Centers and four companies spread across Europe. The FP7 project HINTS started on the 1st of June 2011. The project held its kick-off meeting in Bologna (Italy), last 23rd 24th June 2011. |

In case some people don't already know, Luke Barnes blogs over at Letters to Nature. He also has a website with a lot of useful material. Plus, he has a YouTube channel with several videos on the topic.
As a (Reformed) Christian, I should say I don't know that I always agree with him. But he can obviously be very helpful with physics as well as its intersection with philosophical and/or theological argumentation.
And he just seems like a fun and funny guy. Someone with whom you could hang out.I enjoy listening to interviews and discussions about the fine-tuning argument (recently Robin Collins was interviewed here: http://apologetics315.s3.amazonaws.com/interview/interview-robin-collins.mp3 )
I forget the reasons why but Lydia and Tim McGrew (I take this from a recollection of an interview of Lydia) think it is no good.
I feel the force of it but it is not something that can easily be used in discourse with your average unbeliever because it relies on very technical scientific knowledge that is not easy to articulate or, for a layman, to defend. More sophisticated arguments, eg. EAAN, are far easier to get across in their details than the fine-tuning argument based on the universe as a whole.
Also, recently Steve gave this link: http://reflectionsbyken.wordpress.com/2012/04/17/how-theists-and-atheists-reason-differently-about-god/ . Essentially, it seems to promote abductive reasoning (which I have no issue with). However, without going into the counter-arguments (which Collins refers to in the above mentioned interview), it is not immediately clear why a multiverse is not a reasonable conclusion of an abductive argument based on fine-tuning parameters.
Guess my criticism is merely one of practical application.
Thanks for the link, though. Will print and try to read it.

"I work on site at NASA, which is technically not a military site but is a .GOV domain, and I thought I would let you guys know that it's even worse than you know. About the same time as the military sites banned access to WikiLeaks, our internal web site filters also turned off access.. but moreover we cannot even access sites with the text ""wikileaks"" in the URL! I can go to straight google.com and do an instant search for it, but no regular http site with the text ""wikileaks"" is viewable internally through our proxy, and almost none of the links from the google search work. We have received several internal memos stating that viewing any of the leaked information violated security policy (as it should), but I usually have to wait until I get home before I can read any news about the wilkileaks situation. Just an FYI... not sure if all government facilities are operating the same."
"In regards to the Google antitrust case in the EU, in which Google is being investigated for not incorporating other search engines, I think that either I'm missing something, or the EU is--because to my knowledge, Google's business is not to find, review, and rate other people's software--in this case search engines. As far as I know, in order for Google to include someone else's search results into the site, they must either spider pages that are linked to from other sources (say, links to forum posts), or they would have to pass on the search query to the other site. This is especially true for something like maps; you couldn't possibly cache every map location for every address you could put into the engine. And even if you could--would Google really be willing to, or should it be expected to? It raises serious concerns as to how it would affect the speed and security of the search, even ignoring the quality of the search.

July 2008
Looking for an affordable, OUTSTANDING, small childcare where your infant or toddler will receive lots of love and personal attention? I must have interviewed 20 different providers to find a personal, home-like childcare situation until I finally met Melissa Fuller. I was totally impressed by her and immediately trusted and respected her. Since then, she has taken wonderful care of our son and daughter at her home. They love going to her house and have no problem saying goodbye as I run off to work. Melissa always seems to be so positive, gentle, and understanding with the children no matter how challenging their behavior gets. As a former preschool teacher, she nurtures their development with books, art, and play in a TV-free environment. She has great clean indoor and outdoor play spaces and provides healthy food for breakfast, lunch, and snacks. Our kids are going to preschool in the fall, so Melissa has openings for September. She takes only a handful of kids and will definitely fill up fast. So call her now if you are in search of a great childcare provider.
April 2008

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Sherrdand Early OriginsThe surname Sherrdand was first found in county Longford (Irish: An Longfort) traditionally known as Annaly or Teffia, and situated in the Irish Midlands, in Northwest Leinster. Sherrdand Spelling VariationsSherrdand Spelling VariationsIn the Middle Ages many people were recorded under different spellings each time their name was written down. Research on the Sherrdand family name revealed numerous spelling variations, including Sheridan, O'Sheridan, Sheridon, Sheridin and others. Sherrdand Early HistorySherrdand Early HistoryThis web page shows only a small excerpt of our Sherrdand research. Another 245 words (18 lines of text) covering the years 1751, 1635, 1711, 1682, 1691, 1669, 1682, 1687 and 1738 are included under the topic Early Sherrdand History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible. Sherrdand Early Notables (pre 1700)Sherrdand Early Notables (pre 1700)Another 48 words (3 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Sherrdand Notables in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible. The Great MigrationThe Great Migration Ireland saw an enormous decrease in its population in the 19th century due to immigration and death. This pattern of immigration began slowly in the late 18th century and gradually grew throughout the early portion of the 19th century. However, a dramatic increase in the country's immigration numbers occurred when the Great Potato Famine struck in the 1840s. The early immigrants to North America were primarily destined to be farmers tending to their own plot of land, those that came later initially settled within pre-established urban centers. These urban immigrants provided the cheap labor that the fast developing United States and soon to be Canada required. Regardless of their new lifestyle in North America, the Irish immigrants to the United States and Canada made invaluable contributions to their newly adopted societies. An investigation of immigrant and passenger lists revealed many Sherrdands: Bernard Sheridan arrived in Philadelphia in 1807; Barney, Cornelius, Felix, Hugh, James, John, Martin, Mary, Mathew, Michael, Patrick, Peter, Terence, Thomas and William Sheridan, all arrived in Philadelphia between 1840 and 1870.. MottoMottoThe motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Cervus lacessitus Leo Motto Translation: The stag at bay becomes a lion. Sherrdand Family Crest ProductsSherrdand Family Crest ProductsSee AlsoSee AlsoCitationsCitationsOther References

Baldemar Velásquez, Founder and President, Farm Labor Organizing Committee
The Farm Labor Organizing Committee, AFL-CIO (FLOC), is a union of migrant farmworkers in the eastern United States founded by Baldemar Velásquez. Baldemar is a highly respected national and international leader, not only in the farm labor movement, but also in the Latino and immigrant rights movements.
Baldemar has seen how international structures and policies directly affect the lives of migrant workers not only in the U.S. but other regions of the world where the same crops are grown for the same corporations in a global economy. Thus, FLOC has initiated cooperative dialogues with labor unions in Mexico and other countries in response to multinational corporations moving some operations across borders. One such effort has led to the establishment a U.S.-Mexico Commission of labor groups to oversee joint organizing and negotiation efforts among farmworkers producing for the same corporations.
FLOC is continuing these efforts with agricultural workers in other regions. Baldemar's vision and convictions continue to drive the efforts of FLOC in winning justice for migrant workers. He has become a recognized grass-roots leader and diplomat in the farm labor movement, immigrant rights movement, and social justice movements in the U.S. and around the world. His creativity and commitment to justice and human dignity have led to recognition by many labor, government, academic, and progressive organizations, including a John D. and Catherine T.

Occasionally Binding Collateral Constraints in RBC Models
On the one hand, recently a number of theoretical models have highlighted the role of credit market frictions in propagating and amplifying macroeconomic shocks. On the other hand, it still seems an open question whether this role is quantitatively significant. Our paper tries to fill this gap. We construct a DSGE model in the tradition of the RBC literature. Within this framework, we impose restrictions on asset trading which follow from the credit constraint structure used by, for example, Kiyotaki and Moore (1997) and Kocherlakota (2000). Except for those collateral constraints we assume that markets are complete, considering a full set of Arrow securities. Our main focus is on the quantitative impact of collateral constraints on equilibrium allocations and prices. Therefore, we study amplification and persistence, some asset pricing implications, and the welfare issues in such a model. The crucial aspect of our approach is that collateral constraints are occasionally binding. This is in contrast to the previous literature that has made assumptions strong enough to ensure that collateral constraints were always (i.e., for all periods) binding for the same subset of agents. The feature of occasionally binding constraints also makes our model challenging from a computational point of view. To this end, we implement a collocation version of projection methods in the spirit of Judd (1992) and Christiano and Fisher (2000)

Chapter 7- For the Hopeless Romantics
Lily POV
Ahh to say Job well done just doesnt seem to be enough, now does it?
James quirked one of his ever signature eyebrows at me, one of those expressions that I do have to say has been perfected with age. I had to fight the urge to kiss him. Forty-one and still the same cute look could get me every time.
A little full of yourself now arent you?
Youre one to talk. I raised a brow to match his, successfully getting a glimpse of that smile that I love.
You planned that entire ordeal from the start, didnt you?
What? Youre surprised? Youve known since the moment that you married me that I would be continually outsmarting you for all of eternity. With a grin, I watched him snake his arm around my waist.
You know they wouldve figured it out sooner or later that Hermione is a clever girl.
After all this time, youve finally come to agree with me then?! Its been nearly ten years and now you agree that shes right for him!
I never disagreed! I just merely said that I thought hed end up with Ginny
Oh so what changed your mind then?
Seeing them, I suppose the way Harry looks at her and she at him. Ive never seen a boy so cross eyed for a girl.
Did you look in the mirror at all during fifth through seventh year, Prongs?
Despite it being heaven, Sirius was here. Not that I didnt appreciate the few good extra years of life on earth that did succeed in slightly straightening him out, but the man still to this day brought out the devil in my husband. I couldnt help but groan when he snuck up behind us. I had been content and basking in my glory.
Happy to see you too Lils.
Oh one of these days I will curse the smirk off that face.
Anyway dear Prongs, you were so cross eyed that its a wonder you didnt need an extra pair of glasses!
Do I detect a hint of jealousy ole Padfoot?
All thoughts of Sirius flew from my mind as my heart melted with James expression. Merlin, youd think I was seventeen all over again. Damn eyebrow.
Jealous? No, no, no. Sickened, I believe is the word.
Righhhhtttt. And watching you, Sirius Black, stick your tongue down every Gryffindor females throat for all of seventh year was by no means sickening. James and I at least had the decency to not use the common room sofa!
James eyed me and I could tell he was thinking the same.
Ahh well no matter. Sickening or not I still ended up in the company of a lovely witch. You, my friend, are still single.
But in heaven, dear Prongs.
In other words, Sirius had all the women he could ever possibly want while up here. Randy git.
Right you are Lily I was thinking it may be about time for us to consider divor-
Say the words and I will find a way to send you both to Hell The Reapers happen to love me. I can get you moved! Happily I saw James and Sirius expressions turn to ones of fear. Im very pleased with how effective my threats still are... It is after all heaven and Im fairly certain I could in no way get their passes revoked. Doesnt mean I cant tell them that I can, though.
Speaking of dearest wife how did you convince the Reapers to send us back for one day?
I couldnt help but notice the clear emphasis and sudden usage of the word wife in that sentence. So now Im your dearest wife eh? James simply smiled innocently at me hoping Id take the change in topic.
Well dearest husband unlike you and Sirius here I happen to have the favor of the Grim Reapers for one very simple and seemingly incomprehensible concept that you and Sirius have yet to grasp.
And what is that my love?
He leaned in placing a just barely there kiss against my lips. He loves it when we banter.
Good behavior. He smirked against my lips and kissed me once more. Oh this really was heaven. Heaven, indeed.
I heard Sirius snort at us as he walked off. Im dead, shouldnt I be allowed to partake in PDA?
James pulled away but still held me close a favorite habit of his. He has never been very good with letting me go once hes gotten hold of me, a persistent trait that I am very, very thankful for.
You knew I would talk Harry into telling her didnt you?
I ran a spare hand through his black hair that was now streaked with a bit of gray.
As much as you claim otherwise James I know you for what you are. I simply used it to my advantage.
And what is it that I am exactly?
He quirked that ever inquisitive eyebrow but this time I was unable to stop my lips from stealing just one kiss. His breath hitched just slightly and he sighed when I pulled away. After so many years, Im still amazed that I can do that to him.
A hopeless romantic.

ORLANDO — The manager of a Florida business where George Zimmerman was questioned by police said Tuesday that Zimmerman was never hired to provide security, despite his claims otherwise to authorities.
DeLand police report that two officers spotted Zimmerman and his dog parked behind Pompano Pat's, a motorcycle and gun store, on Sunday shortly after midnight and approached him.
See Also
Zimmerman, acquitted last summer in the shooting of the 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, told officers that the owner gave him permission to be there to provide security after a recent burglary, according to the police report. Officers attempted to confirm that but couldn't reach the owner.
No citations were issued because "There was no evidence to support that a crime had occurred or was about to occur," Officer Jessica Mayo wrote in the report.
Zimmerman "in no way, shape or form" is employed by the store, Pompano Pat's manager Sam Porter told The Associated Press in a phone interview Tuesday. Owner Pat Johnson didn't immediately return a phone message.
"He's not being paid to be act as a security officer or in any other way for Pompano Pat's," Porter said.
Porter confirmed that the store had a burglary about two weeks ago, with 10 rifles stolen. He said that internal store security was "beefed up" after the incident, but that no after-hours security personnel were hired.
Porter said that Johnson knew Zimmerman and had a friendship with him but wouldn't elaborate further.
Zimmerman became a national figure during his second-degree murder trial last year for fatally shooting the Martin during an altercation in Sanford, Florida, in February 2012. The case raised questions about race and self-defense laws. Zimmerman, who identifies himself as Hispanic, was acquitted last July in the shooting of Martin, who was black.
Zimmerman filed an appeal this week in a defamation lawsuit against NBC Universal and three reporters.
Last month, a judge dismissed Zimmerman's lawsuit, saying the former neighborhood watch leader had failed to show that the network acted with malice.
In his lawsuit, Zimmerman says NBC's editing of a story about the shooting made it sound as if he voluntarily told a phone operator that Martin was black.

Even as consumers economize to the core, it seems someone lit the flame under Greek yogurt, of all things. Over the past year, like smoke on the water, Greek yogurt sales floated past other types, selling well in both units and dollars. And of course, if more units sell, the dollar value of sales will increase because Greek yogurt has a "121 percent higher average equivalized price," according to Nielsen, market researchers. Not so long ago in the land of Yoplait, Greek yogurt wasn't even on the average consumer's radar screen. It was all about the custardy texture. Now Greek yogurt hits the morning TV stage with regularity – and not only in advertising. It's practically a viral product for the health conscious among us. In short, if you differentiate it, they will not only buy, they may pay more.
According to claims, Greek yogurt is all natural – high on the health conscious consumer's list of qualities. It is also pro-biotic with good bacteria, and it has no sugar. But wait, there's more. Greek yogurt is high in protein so it fills you up. Yoplait's Greek has twice the protein of its regular yogurt. And best of all, Greek yogurt tastes great. Perhaps a new tagline is in the works – tastes great, more filling? Along the way, a couple of Greek yogurt companies jazzed up their ads and were noticed. The word yogurt is actually of Turkish origin, but in Germany it's called Rahmjoghurt, Rahm being German for cream – who knew? And when the Greek yogurt phase is over, the next big food thing could be, Satsuma, purple potato, kumquat, Gruyere or garam masala – again from Nielsen.

LONDON – England – David Cameron may stand at the podium, he may open his mouth but little of what he tries to say is audible.
The PM's press officer always lends a hand by bringing out a little black board for him to put forward his message with some pieces of chalk.
"It's not that he doesn't want to say anything, it's just that what he says is sort of meaningless and transparent, almost like some kind of insipid jelly fish," Peter Pesseltripe, Cameron's press officer told the Telegraph.
David Cameron's latest speech about EU immigration was thus reduced to a few scribblings on the board.
"Election, S.O.S, Help! Deflect until after election. Pro EU plan still in place. Need to win. Appease mob first. Help!"

- Have never used a ceramic hob before but it was really easy and cooking on it has not been a problem. Price was O.K too, not expensive. I particularly like the locking system which not only prevents accidently switching rings on but also stops the grandkids, 'accidently', switching it on and getting burned.

Trying to remove multiple of children of a displayObject of type Buttonfor (var i:int=0; i<numChildren; i++) { if (getChildAt(i) is Button) { removeChild(getChildAt(i)); }}for (var h:int=0; h<numChildren; h++) { if (getChildAt(h) is Button) { trace("???????" }}During gameplay, it traces out "???????", and I'm not quite sure why
I believe getChildAt() refers to a layer and not an index of the children. Try doing a for each statment where tempvar:displayobject is Button.
When you remove a child, it shifts everything down one layer, so you're actually only removing about half of the children. In your first if statement, add another line that says "i--" which will shift your i back one layer to compensate for the removed child. I believe that should work.
BlueJayy is right, numChildren decrements with every removal. But I would suggest a simpler approach of just iterating backwards:for(i = numChildren-1;i>=0;i--)This way, only indexes that have already been checked can shift. (e.g. if you start with numChildren = 7 (indexes 0,1,2,3,4,5,6), and you iterate backwards, finding your first Button at index 4, removing that once will shift index 5 and 6 down, but your next check at index 3 will not have changed.)
Haha oops.... I forgot this was a mutable array, I'm used to java in school with arrays vs arraylists so I got them mixed up. Thx alot

Finally the Pokemon game remake we all have been waiting for is now available for everyone of us to enjoy. Approximately more than a decade ago, Pokemon Sapphire was released as one of the third generation game together with Ruby and Emerald. It has been regarded during that time as one of the best version of its generation and with that Pokemon gamers around the globe are very excited for the new Sapphire version on the 3DS platform dubbed as Alpha Sapphire. What is good about this isthe fact that a Pokemon Alpha Sapphire Rom is just a click away for anyone who wants to play with it. I, myself, have already downloaded the ROM file with some of my friends, and we find this so much fun and interesting. Now for those of you who do not have a Nintendo 3DS console, worry not because you can still play it using the 3DS emulators that is compatible on PC, Mac, iOS, and Android systems.
Pokemon is well known to be a game played by all ages contrary to its popular notion of being a game just for the young generations. It is more than just utilizing skills. It is a game where a player is encouraged to think and strategize especially in battles against different trainers that you will meet along your way. Same is true with all the game versions that have been released previously and just recently. The only difference that is very obvious is the fact that the game looks better now with a relatively advanced technology on the 3DS systems. Nevertheless, 3D or not, Nintendo's Pokemon games have always been one of the best in its category.
Embark into the journey of becoming the best trainer in the realm of Pokemons. Get yourself the latest released copy of Pokemon Alpha Sapphire Rom. It is easy to download and in no time you will be enjoying the game with your friends. You wont have to worry on spending any money on it because this can be obtained relatively free despite it being a paid game. You neither have to worry of getting a virus because the files are certified cleaned by 52 various antivirus softwares and I can personally attest to its credibility. Grab this opportunity now while it last. Let us challenge ourselves into a new adventure of fulfilling the popular tag line --- "Gotta catch 'em all!"

57 comments:
Hi Mary...
Love that autumn is finally here! Your autumn mosaic is beautiful, my friend! Your kitchen is really pretty with the autumn colors...pretty wallpaper! I love your credenza and you've decorated it so beautifully for Autumn! Thank you for sharing this pretty vignette with us and also thank you for hosting Mosaic Monday!
Warmest wishes and Happy Fall!
ChariG'day, I love your mosaic, the fall colors are just wow, beautiful. I am a new member to your meme and I have complied with your rules. I cannot wait till next Monday, I just love putting together collages. Great idea you have. Thank you for sharing and hosting this meme on Mondays. Enjoy your day :) cya MonikaRose.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed seeing your autumn decorating Mary. I have yet to get my box of decorations down from my attic, but usually the beginning of October inspires me to get going. I wish I lived nearer to a Hone Goods -- I usually find such pretty things there. Brooklyn doesn't even have a Michael's! :-(
Have a good week!

I Don't Know How She Does It
Available at Video Ezy now!
Sarah Jessica Parker stars in this romantic comedy as Kate, a Boston-based working mum juggling marriage, her kids and a high-stress job as a finance executive. Based on Allison Pearson's best selling 'chick lit' novel of the same name.
The perfect storm hits when Kate gets a big promotion that will require frequent trips to New York and her architect husband (Greg Kinnear) also wins the job he'd been hoping for. Both are spread even thinner and priorities become blurred. Further complications arise when Kate's charming new business associate Jack (Pierce Brosnan) begins to prove an unexpected source of temptation.

All I Needed Was a Sign
Now, I love me some zoom. I love it on the camera, and I love using it as a telescope to figure out if that "brown thing" near the tree in my neighbor's yard is a squirrel or a hawk. If eyeglasses came with a zoom feature, my no-line progressives would have it. Naturally, once I discovered how much more magnification is available now than it was when I bought my current camera, I began to yearn for it.
Being a practical person, I didn't think about it too hard. Often, maybe, but not too seriously. Every time it crossed my mind, I stifled the thought. My camera has been good to me, and it didn't make sense to replace it when there wasn't a thing wrong with it.
Until today. Today the Gods of All Things Digital must have convened to discuss the needs of amateur photographers everywhere, after which they sent me a sign. My trusty camera broke this very day. If that had happened a month ago, I'd be sitting here feeling sorry for myself and writing some kind of what-am-I-going-to-do post. Instead, I almost hollered "Yee-haw!"
I've loved my old camera, and I could hardly believe what I was seeing when I tried to use it today. The zoom lens no longer moves consistently. Sometimes it zooms out and won't zoom back in. Sometimes it freezes halfway out and the shutter button won't click. The playback feature has ceased to operate, so I can no longer preview the photos I've taken. Stranger still, sometimes the camera fires off a few shots all by itself when my finger is nowhere near the button. Here are a few of the pictures the camera took on its own today:
Something is clearly very wrong. Isn't that wonderful?
That sign was all I needed. I spent the rest of the day online researching simple-to-use cameras with lots and lots of zoom, and in eight-to-twelve working days, the one I chose will be delivered to my door. Out of loyalty and gratitude to my now ailing old camera, I decided to go with the same brand. The new one will have seven fewer levels of magnification than the one that ignited my zoom envy, but twenty more levels than the one I have now.
Thank you for your faithful service, old camera. May you rest in peace.

Duly Inspired, my old camera was a Canon PowerShot S2 IS. The new one is a Canon PowerShot SX40 HS. The new one is not actually the latest model, but I saved substantially by buying the one I did. I wish I had both the money and the expertise to own one of the amazing (and outrageously expensive) cameras I saw online. Some of their photos were amazing. Given the constraints of my budget and my skills, though, I think the one I chose is a good compromise. We'll soon find out.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alison. Fun is definitely the main point--but I'll be disappointed if the photos aren't at least better than the ones the old camera produced, and so far I've never found disappointment to be much fun at all. Just got an email that the new one has shipped and estimated delivery date is day after tomorrow. Super!
ReplyDeleteOh,oh,oh! I have the same camera that died on you and it is doing the exact same things you describe. It has even begun taking photos on its own, but none have turned out as well as the "goodbye photos" yours took!
I wish you lovely hours and days of photography, especially with that zoom lens. Oh, I want some zoom...xx

CHICAGO (CBS) — The deadline is fast approaching for people who want a reserved seat for concerts at the Taste of Chicago, less than a week away.
As WBBM Newsradio's Brandis Friedman reports, as crews work to install tents in Grant Park for the Taste, the city Department of Cultural Affairs is working to remind patrons to buy tickets now if they want to reserve a concert seat.
LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio's Brandis Friedman reports
"We've often been asked, 'How can I make sure I get a seat, so now you can sort of guarantee your seat is waiting for you when you arrive," said Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events spokeswoman Cindy Gatziolis.
The concerts feature musical acts such as Jennifer Hudson, Dierks Bentley, Chaka Khan and Death Cab for Cutie.
Lawn seating for about 30,000 people will be free, but for the first time, the city is charging $25 per person for seats at the 3,000-seat Petrillo Music Shell.
Gatziolis says the city has sold some tickets, but quite a few remain available.
"It's closing in at about 6,000 for all five nights. A couple of our shows are real close to 2,000 tickets sold," she said.
But Gatziolis is not discouraged by the modest sales. Her research shows most people wait until a week away before committing to the Taste, so she is expecting more sales between now and Monday night – when online sales for reserved seat tickets end.
The Taste is set for July 11-15, and it has been cut back dramatically this year.

Fabio Capello wouldn't bend and if such a capacity is what you want in the leader of the national team there is a time and a place when it is best expressed.
This was neither the time nor the place, which means that what we have in place of unshakeable principle is something that is hard not to see as betrayal. There is an argument that Capello was within his rights to object to a decision made over his head – and without any consultation – but then this is maybe more than balanced by the nature of the problem.
The issue, the £6m man refused to see, wasn't about his right to make a certain selection or preserve a particular captain, however weighed down by the accumulated baggage of two increasingly desperate years.
It was to accept the belief – clearly expressed by his employers – that some matters move far beyond the touchlines of any football pitch. They concern how you deal with a situation carrying more significance than one football match or a decent showing in a major tournament.
The question isn't John Terry's innocence or guilt in the charge that he racially abused Anton Ferdinand. It is whether it is in the best interests of everyone concerned that he remains captain under the shadow of the court case which will not be decided until after this summer's European Championship finals.
Capello returned yesterday – after an interview on Italian television that seemed to represent something close to calculated insubordination – in open defiance of such a proposition. Terry as his captain, he made clear, was the only foundation on which he would conclude a regime which seemed to have reached rock bottom in the World Cup in South Africa.
It was brinkmanship which, short of some appalling climbdown on principle by the Football Association board which decided that Terry's situation made him untenable as captain, could end in only one way. The result is, of course, one chaotic and divisive situation heaped upon another.
The result is that English football is made, once again, a laughing stock. However, on this occasion, apart from the issue of consultation with Capello, the FA presents an easy target only to those who failed to recognise that it came to its decision on Terry's captaincy in the middle of an extraordinarily difficult dilemma
Capello's newfound enthusiasm for Terry must surely come as something of a surprise, in view of the fact that so recently the Italian took just a matter of minutes to dismiss him in the wake of the controversy over his alleged affair with the former partner of an ex-Chelsea team-mate, Wayne Bridge.
Then the case, in Capello's eyes as well as those of most of the football community, seemed open and shut. Terry had caused a huge split in the England camp. Now it seems that Terry is integral to England's hopes of making any kind of success of the European finals. This is despite the fact that the extent of the current division in the England squad seems nearly identical to the one created by the original affair.
Capello's decision to walk last night makes the whole adventure of his appointment a sorry story of missed opportunity and colliding professional values. The Italian wanted to create his own closed world of discipline and control – and then he found here a world where players had become used to following many of their own instincts.
The first breaking point came in the team's isolated training centre in the South African veld. The second came when members of the England team, and not least the influential Rio Ferdinand, brother of Anton, made clear their unhappiness with the Terry situation.
Last night it happened, the end of the project and so the silencing of any serious hope that Capello might salvage something from the wreckage of his work in England. If there was sadness, there must also be anger. This was a trial of strength that went badly wrong, obscuring not only a sense of coherent action but any semblance of a common cause for the benefit of English football.
Harry Redknapp's day of deliverance thus ended, surely, in fresh doubts about the viability of a job so many believe he was born to do.
