BEIJING (Reuters) - German luxury car maker BMW (BMWG.DE) said it is set to sell another record number of cars in China this year, an upbeat outlook accompanied by a separate announcement that it would recall over 25,000 defective cars in the nation in 2014.
China's consumer quality watchdog said in a statement BMW would recall 25,254 cars in China, the world's biggest automobile market, from Feb 17 next year due to a faulty power brake system that compromises safety.
BMW has already recalled nearly 220,000 cars this year over two occasions to fix their electric power steering system and socket adapters for tail lights.
The cars to be recalled next year include 4,083 vehicles produced by BMW Brilliance Automotive Ltd, a joint venture between BMW and Brilliance China Automotive, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said.
Other cars to be recalled are the 125i, 320i, 328i, 520i, 528i, X1, X3 and Z4 models.
The plan to recall the cars came after BMW said earlier on Saturday its China sales rose more than 20 percent in the first nine months of this year, paving the way for another year of record Chinese sales.
The company sold 284,964 BMW and MINI vehicles in China in the January to September period, up 20.2 percent from a year earlier.
That compares with a 12.7 percent growth in China's vehicle market and a nine percent growth in BMW's global deliveries during the same period.
"The stable growth ... laid a solid foundation for achieving another sales record for the year of 2013," Karsten Engel, chief executive of BMW Group China said in a statement.
China, which is expected to surpass the United States as the biggest premium car market by the end of the decade, is key to other luxury marques such as Ferrari, Lamborghini and Bentley.
This year, Daimler (DAIGn.DE) unveiled plans to open a museum in Beijing showcasing its Mercedes-Benz brand, and British supercar maker McLaren opened its first showroom in China.
As part of BMW's global push to win market share, it has stepped up investment in brand stores and dealershops in China, and introduced Apple-style customer services.

Location: Eddie Catz Leeds Mothercare (has now closed)
Phone: 0203 4755268
Baby Yoga is a way of communicating through touch how much love you have for your baby and also creates a secure and healthy attachment. In one short session a baby experiences as much physical activity as they would receive if they were handled and carried all day which should help them sleep for longer. Baby Yoga complements Baby Massage beautifully and is a fantastic follow on.
We also include some gentle postnatal exercises for mum. Don't worry if you've never done yoga before, you won't be expected to get you or your baby into any strange positions!
You'll follow a series of simple stretches to begin with before giving your baby lots of skin-to-skin contact and very gentle muscle stimulation without any force and we always start off with a gentle massage for baby to warm their muscles up. Baby Yoga can help with the following common difficulties:
•Colic and crying
•Constipation and digestive problems
•Slow weight gain
•Feeding difficulties
•Sleeping patterns
If you have an older sibling and have no childcare for them, it's fine to bring them along to class with you – although we do recommend you bring a doll with you so that they can copy what you are doing!
Not only do we practise yoga moves with baby, but we also do a lot of sensory work with scarves and parachutes.
Practicing Baby Yoga has many benefits for both you and your baby. Here are just a few of the visible benefits you'll see:
•Helps balance, co-ordination and motor skills
•Aids respiration and digestion
•Allows babies to move freely
•Strengthens their bodies and develops reflexes
•Aids bonding, trust and social interaction
•Stimulates the brain through endorphin release
•Develops physical confidence and spatial awareness
•Improves muscle development
•Promotes better sleep
•Improves learning and social developmentPlease see our Parent Information for classes at Eddie Catz.

BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — You know it's been a rainy summer in Vermont if the governor holds a news conference to announce the sun is out.
Gov. Peter Shumlin joined state and private tourism officials under a broiling sun and high humidity, with temperatures climbing to the mid-90s on Monday, at the downhill end of Burlington's Church Street Marketplace to boost spirits dampened by record early-summer rains.
"We've had a wet start to the summer season and that's been tough on weather-dependent businesses," the governor said. "But the sun is shining, and Vermonters and out of state visitors alike are ready to get out and enjoy the state."
At the National Weather Service in Burlington, forecaster Brooke Taber said 2013 had seen the wettest May and June on record. Both approached three times the normal rainfall, with the first two weeks of July easing off to not quite twice the normal rain.
Shumlin was joined for Monday's event by the heads of the Vermont and Lake Champlain Regional Chambers of Commerce, leaders in the mountain resort and bicycling industries, the Frog Hollow Vermont State Craft Center and others.
Betsey Bishop of the state Chamber of Commerce talked up the long list of summer festivals in Vermont celebrating everything from music to local craft beers to barbecue.
"From festivals to outdoor dining, every part of the Vermont experience engages travelers on a variety of levels and boosts our economy," she said.
Shumlin said it was too early to tell what impact the wet weather has had on tourism-dependent state revenue streams like taxes on sales, rooms and meals; the new fiscal year just began July 1. But he said it was likely to be felt.
Tourism-related tax and fee revenue totaled nearly $275 million in 2011, equal to about a fifth of the state's $1.3 billion general fund budget. Tourism spending also supports nearly 40,000 jobs, with more than 13 percent job growth in the hospitality and recreation sector since 2009, officials said.
Craig Whipple, director of the Vermont State Parks, said combined visits by campers and day users hit a record 920,000 last year and appeared to be off 20 to 25 percent so far this year.
Tom Stuessy, executive director of the Vermont Mountain Bike Association, said nearly 100 percent of trails overseen by the group's affiliates had been closed for some part of May and June due to wet conditions; nearly 100 percent are open now, he added.
Although the Church Street Marketplace, with its brick-lined pedestrian walkway and outdoor restaurant and pub tables lining the thoroughfare, is a key tourist destination, Bishop said she hoped visitors to Burlington also would venture out to other parts of Vermont.
A few yards up Church Street, Daniel and Melissa Nathan and their three young boys, visiting from Columbus, Ohio, said they were planning on doing just that, beating the heat in the Lake Champlain valley by heading up to camp in the Green Mountains.
"We got into Burlington yesterday, but we're heading up to go camping at Smugglers Notch," Melissa Nathan said.
In spite of rain, Vt. open to tourism
BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — You know it's been a rainy summer in Vermont if the governor holds a news conference to announce the sun is out.

Our Turn: Thoughts, reaction and reflection on Connecticut school massacre
Special to the Sun
TAHOE/TRUCKEE – Our thoughts are with all of those affected by yesterday's incomprehensible and horrific act of school violence that occurred in Newtown, Connecticut. Although this tragedy occurred on the East Coast, it is deeply felt by us all. Many in our own community have expressed concern about the safety of our schools and our children.
Upon learning of the shooting, we responded immediately in providing support to students, staff, and parents:
• School staff was immediately informed of the event and provided resources to support students.
• School counselors were alerted and made available to all campuses.
• Truckee Police increased patrol and visibility at all Truckee campuses.
These resources will remain in place into next week or as long as necessary.
As public service leaders charged with the safety of our children, we want to reassure the Tahoe-Truckee community that our schools are safe and the well-being of your children is our highest priority.
TTUSD, Truckee Police Department, and other regional public safety agencies have a strong, collaborative relationship. A Truckee Police officer is assigned to Truckee schools and is in daily communication with district leadership. We continuously evaluate our prevention efforts and have robust threat assessment procedures.
The District and all public safety partners have sophisticated, integrated response plans to act quickly to protect students and staff in the event of a school emergency. District and public safety personnel have received extensive training and practice in campus emergencies. We have absolute confidence in our personnel and they are ready to respond effectively.
We recognize that some may feel their sense of security has been compromised and may have some anxiety about their children returning to our schools. Schools remain one of the safest environments for children and statistically school violence related deaths are at their lowest levels in two decades.
The number of school shootings annually has dramatically decreased. School and police procedures have radically improved since the Columbine tragedy, providing stronger prevention techniques and responses by first responders.
As you address this tragedy with your children, please consider the following:
• Providing a sense of confidence and normalcy for your children may provide comfort and reassurance.
• Limit television coverage of the event.
• Calmly and openly listen to your children's concerns.
• For younger children, it's best to be less specific and use minimal details.
• Reassure them they are safe and that their school and the police are providing safety precautions.
Please consider reviewing the following links for additional information to assist you in discussing this event and others like it with your children.
• http://store.samhsa.gov/product/Tips-for-Talking-With-and-Helping-Children-and-Youth-Cope-After-a-Disaster-or-Traumatic-Event/SMA12-4732
• http://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/ss/cp/tragedy.asp
Protecting our community requires active participation from everyone. We encourage all members of our community to play a part. Never hesitate to report suspicious behavior; you can do so anonymously. We treat all reports seriously and will follow up. Trust your instincts. See Something, Say Something.
We wish you the very best during this holiday season and extend our deepest condolences to Newtown, Connecticut. If you want to discuss school related violence further with either of us please do not hesitate to call.
Adam McGill is chief of police for the town of Truckee; Robert Leri is superintendent of the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District. McGill can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 530-550-2329. Leri can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 530-582-2500.

Luiz Felipe Scolari was virtually a unanimous choice when Brazil made the decision to replace Mano Menezes and appoint a new coach at the end of last year. After all, Felipão was the architect of Brazil's fifth and most recent world title to date, secured at the 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan™.
There is, however, another very good reason why Scolari fitted the bill as the man to take charge of the host nation at the FIFA Confederations Cup Brazil 2013, which gets under way this Saturday, and the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™. A winner on the biggest of stages, he also knows all about the pressure of being the home coach in an international tournament.
His coaching career began back in 1990, when he steered Kuwait's national team to the Gulf Cup of Nations title on home soil. Fourteen years on he was at the helm of the Portugal side that hosted UEFA EURO 2004, a tournament in which they restored their bond with the nation on their way to finishing runners-up to Greece.
"He was very aware of the fact that it had been many years since the Portuguese people felt any real affinity with the national team, and he made it his priority to get them all behind us and to believe in us," midfielder Maniche, a member of that 2004 side, told FIFA.com. That really helped us strive for success. When it comes to psychology, he's really ahead of the game and he was such an important figure both for the players and the people of Portugal as a whole. It was he who made them proud of their national side again. He motivated the players and the fans, who gave their support to the team."
On our way to the stadiums, we'd be standing up on the bus just to watch the huge crowds of people cheering us on
Harnessing the energy of the fans, Scolari and his team turned the additional pressure of playing at home into an extra source of motivation, drawing inspiration from the packed stadiums, the flags hanging from every window and the processions that followed the team bus en route to every game.
Those memories are still fresh in the mind of Portugal's then goalkeeper Ricardo, whose place in the side was questioned by some, but who repaid his coach's faith with his gloveless heroics in the penalty-shootout defeat of England in the quarter-finals.
"Scolari managed to harness all that extra energy that was generated around the team," the custodian told FIFA.com. "He was the one who asked people to put flags in their windows and to sing the national anthem as loud as they could, inside and outside the stadiums. On our way to the stadiums, we'd be standing up on the bus just to watch the huge crowds of people cheering us on."
Brazil looking to capture the imagination
A Seleção will be hoping to draw on that kind of support when they step out for Saturday's opening match of the FIFA Confederations Cup Brazil 2013 against Japan at the Estadio Nacional Mane Garrincha in Brasilia. The difference in this case, however, is that with five world titles in the bank, Brazil fans have grown accustomed to success, usually achieved in style.
The Confederations Cup will be crucial to seeing how the players react in both positive and negative terms
In an interview with FIFA.com in April, Scolari spoke of the pressure Brazil will be under: "It's completely different. The pressure that's generated by the media and the country as a whole can lead you to take an approach you wouldn't normally pursue on other occasions. We've been playing friendlies up to now and the whole feel of those games is different, especially when they're overseas. There's not the same pressure surrounding them and there's not the same need to win. The Confederations Cup will be crucial to seeing how the players react in both positive and negative terms. Based on that, we'll then start making decisions for the World Cup."
While the coach's relationship with the fans is important, it his ability to get the most out of the players that really counts, and that is a quality for which Scolari is also renowned.
"He's very emotional and he works on the psychology of the players," added Maniche. "For example, after meals we'd go back to our rooms and find a poem under the door. We'd have to read it and reflect on what the people of Portugal expected of us. He often spoke to us about people who were struggling with money and yet still managed to buy a ticket to the matches. Little things like that made a huge difference before a big game."
Brazil's ever-demanding fans will make absolutely sure that every competitive match the national team plays in the next 12 months will be exactly that: a big game. Yet, with their very own Mr Motivator in the dugout, the Brazil players will not be lacking in focus or inspiration when they go in search of the results the supporters crave.

Southern Sticky Chicken slow cooks in an easy sauce in a cast iron skillet. The chicken braises in a slightly sweet tangy sauce and is fall-off-the-bone tender.
Nanny used to make something we called sticky chicken. She'd brown some chicken pieces in hot oil in a cast iron skillet, add a little water, and let the chicken slow cook until it was done. The skin would be sticky and the meat would just fall off the bone.
I wanted to make something like it this weekend but changed it up a bit by making sort of a thin barbeque sauce for the chicken and finished it all off in the oven.
Nanny's chicken always had red glazed look to it and I remember a touch of sweetness too but Mama swears she didn't use any sauce or marinade.
I'm not so sure. Nanny was a hot mess. And I wouldn't put it past her to withhold important information from her Yankee daughter-in-law.
Nanny lived a quarter mile from us down a two-rut road that cut through the fields. I went to her house almost every single day of my life once I was old enough to walk.
She and I were buds. And I think she liked to mess with Mama. I told you – Nanny was a booger. I remember her plaiting my hair one day with five hundred thousand million tiny braids and sending me home with a "tell your mama to have fun getting all them plaits out".
Oh lawwww. What a mess. But that's why I'm thinking there might have been more to her chicken than salt and pepper. I decided to marinate mine and then use the marinade to make a thin sauce for the chicken to "stew" in while it cooked.
I think Nanny wanted her picture published is what I think. And she "sent" this to me. Just now. Seriously, what are the odds? Thank you Regina who sent it to Leona who sent it to Mama who sent it to me right at this very moment. I've never ever even seen this picture. Wasn't she beautiful?
Well, Nanny, if you're listening, I miss you very much and I think about you all the time. Especially when I'm cooking. I remember that green stool you used to make me sit on when you were cooking so I'd keep out of your way. And playing rummy on the back porch for hours. And the plum trees and maypops. And spending the night with you all the time - you never said no when I'd ask. And riding with you to Aunt June's. And watching the "stories" together in your recliner.
Wow. How bizarre.
And awesome.
OK, back to the recipe...
Don't let the dark color scare you. This isn't burnt but it will get pretty dark due to the honey in the sauce. And that sauce is delicious! I set the skillet right on the table when it was time to eat and kept dunking my chicken in the sauce to sop it up. This would be perfect served with green beans and scalloped potatoes!
Nanny's Sticky Chicken
- 8-10 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and/or legs*
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce**
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic

J3.x:Creating a simple module/Adding Form Fields
From Joomla! Documentation
< J3.x:Creating a simple module
This is a multiple article series on how to create a module for Joomla! Version . You can navigate the articles in this series by using the navigation drop down menu.
Begin with the Introduction, and navigate the articles in this series by using the navigation button at the bottom or the box to the right (Articles in this series).
There are 2 videos accompanying this tutorial which you can view at Basic Joomla Module Development video 1 and Basic Joomla Module Development video 2.
Form fields give a great deal of customisation in Joomla and for modules are the sole way of allowing the user to tweak the module to the needs of their site.
Adding Form Fields to the module
In this case we are going to extend our previous example using the database to provide a list of languages for the user to select from. To allow this to happen we will use the SQL form field type (full details for this on the SQL Form Field docs page).
First of all we are going to add a form field into our xml file. Remember those config tags that we added in earlier? Well now inside these tags we are going to add the following code:
<fields name="params">
<fieldset name="basic">
label="Select a language"
query="SELECT id AS value, lang FROM #__helloworld" />
This selects the languages from the database table and allows the user to choose which one from a select element.
If you were to install the module as it is now you would see if you were to access the module in the backend of Joomla that a dropdown had appeared (although picking an option won't affect the module at the moment).
Note: The form field parameters are stored for each module in the #__modules table under the params field as json encoded string.
Now lets make the form field do something!
Lets go into the mod_helloworld.php and retrieve the parameter (note you cannot retrieve the parameter in the helper), and then pass it into the helper function.
* This retrieves the lang parameter we stored earlier. Note the second part
* which states to use the default value of 1 if the parameter cannot be
* retrieved for some reason
$language = $params->get('lang', '1');
$hello = modHelloWorldHelper::getHello( $language );
Now lets edit our database query in the helper file to reflect our parameter choice.
// Obtain a database connection
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
// Retrieve the shout - note we are now retrieving the id not the lang field.
$query = $db->getQuery(true)
->where('id = '. $db->Quote($params));
// Prepare the query
// Load the row.
$result = $db->loadResult();
// Return the Hello
return $result;
Form fields give the user an easy way to customise the module to their sites settings. This allows the modules scope to be increased as well for many languages and applications.

|Martin Rosbeck's military marker with flag
As I was looking for an obituary for today (and making sure I didn't repost one that I had already done), I noticed that I actually had 2 obituaries for Martin with slightly different information in them so I decided to post this one as well for any potential Rosbeck researchers out there!
"Martin F. Rosbeck, 81, 414 Third Ave., a retired farmer, died Sunday, Feb. 4, at St. Joseph's Hospital. He had been hospitalized for about one week.
He was born Jan. 16, 1892, in St. Kilian. He married Theresa Kiefer at St. Theresa's Catholic Church in Theresa on May 8, 1923. After their marriage they lived in Milwaukee for about 15 years and then they moved to the St. Kilian area where they farmed for 22 years. In 1961 they moved to West Bend.
He is survived by his wife, and four children, Mrs. Margaret Brill, of Menominee [sic] Falls, three sons, Robert, of Theresa, and Ralph and Norbert of West Bend. He is also survived by three daughters-in-law and one son-in-law, 26 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
He was a member of World War I Barracks 2617 and they will hold services at the Miller Funeral Home, Kewaskum, Tuesday at 7 p.m.
Visitation will be after 4 p.m. Tuesday at Miller's in Kewaskum and parish vigil at 8 p.m. on Tuesday. The funeral services will be Wednesday at 10 a.m. at the funeral home, and at 10:30 a.m. at St. Kilian's Catholic Church, St. Kilian with Fr. Elroy Pesch, O.S.S., officiating. Burial will be in St. Kilian's Cemetery."
[Hand-dated, Feb. 4 - 1973]
Martin was my husbands 2nd great uncle.
These clippings were passed on to me by my mother-in-law in Wisconsin. Most are hand-dated and do not give the newspaper name that they were published in. They would most obviously be from a newspaper in the St. Kilian and/or Green Bay area.

Marissa Gedman netted the game-winner in overtime against Princeton Saturday (Gil Talbot).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – With just 2:01 left to play in the first overtime period, sophomore defenseman Marissa Gedman blasted a shot through traffic that found the back of the net, sealing a 4-3 overtime victory over Princeton Saturday at Bright Hockey Center in Game 2 of the ECAC quarterfinals. The win allows Harvard (22-8-1, 17-4-1 ECAC) to advance to the semifinals in Ithaca, N.Y., next Friday. Princeton wraps up its season with a 12-15-4 overall record and 10-10-2 conference mark.
For the third straight game, a Harvard player notched a hat trick as junior Jillian Dempsey netted all three Harvard goals in regulation, including a short-handed strike in the first period. It is Dempsey's second hat trick of the year, her last one also coming against Princeton when she scored five goals in a 10-1 blowout of the Tigers Feb. 4. Harvard remains undefeated against Princeton in ECAC tournament action with the win.
The teams played fast and loose through the entire overtime period, with both Rachel Weber of Princeton and Laura Bellamy of Harvard coming up with big saves throughout the period. Princeton's best chance came on the tail end of the lone penalty of the period, as Heather Landry broke out of the box, collected a pass from the opposite blue line and put a short-range shot on net that Bellamy turned aside. Princeton's Denna Laing also had a great look from up close off a faceoff late in the period, but Bellamy stuffed the attempt once again.
With the clock approaching two minutes to play in the frame, Samantha Reber worked the puck deep into the Princeton zone and slipped it back to Jillian Dempsey on the boards at the goal line. Dempsey muscled the puck back to Gedman through a crowd of Princeton defenders, and Gedman one-timed the hanging puck through a crowd a past Weber to seal the dramatic 4-3 overtime victory.
Princeton took a 1-0 lead at the 6:38 mark of the first period, thanks to a gutsy solo effort by Landry where the senior collected the puck in her own zone on the penalty kill, deked past a handful of Harvard defenders and deposited the puck for a short-handed strike. Not to be outdone, Dempsey responded with a short-handed goal of her own at 13:09 of the first, knotting the score after intercepting a Princeton pass near mid ice.
The Tigers grabbed their second lead of the game at 3:09 of the second period with Kelly Cooke taking advantage of a long rebound off Bellamy's pad. Dempsey had the answer once again, evening the score at the 13:41 mark, stuffing home a loose puck out of a scrum in front of the Princeton net.
Dempsey's third score came with just 3:26 to play in the contest, converting on a power-play off passes from Sarah Edney and Reber. The Tigers pulled their goalie with just under two minutes to play and the move paid off big, as Sally Butler nudged a loose puck in the crease past Bellamy with just 1:04 left on the clock. The goal was reviewed by the referees and was upheld to force the overtime period.
The Tigers outshot the Crimson for the second straight contest, ending the game with a 36-35 edge. Bellamy matched a season-high with 33 stops on the afternoon while Weber finished with 31 in the loss.
The opponent for Harvard's next game has yet to be determined as Game 3 of the Clarkson-Quinnipiac series will determine Harvard's opponent. The Crimson will take on either Clarkson or St. Lawrence Friday at Lynah Rink in Ithaca, N.Y.

Shop 15 Must-Have Pieces For Your Next Girls' Night Out
Our answer is both! Accordingly, we've rounded up 15 party-ready pieces that are tastefully alluring, but also incredibly fashion-forward. Click through our slideshow to shop these GNO essentials—champagne not included!
Mini Skort ($50) in Geranium
Skorts are perfect GNO material. Why? They're dressier than a pair of shorts, but offer more coverage than a tiny mini skirt.
Alicia Lucite Box Clutch ($395) in Golden/Black
Rafe's geometric box clutch is just the right size for holding your keys, lipstick, and cell phone (you'll need it to collect all those numbers).
Strappy Hem Dress ($84) in White
Thanks to its halter neckline and asymmetric hem, this is a body-con dress we can totally get behind! Plus, wearing white is your chance to stand out in a sea of black.
Let's Bring Back by Lulu Frost Spark Earrings ($180) in Black
These earrings inject your ensemble with a touch of glamour, but they won't weigh you down as you're dancing the night away.
Mia Heels ($395) in Gold-Multi
The double ankle straps on these metallic heels make them a particularly sultry choice, especially when paired with a leather mini skirt.
About A Girl Dress ($234) in Blue
Nothing screams GNO more than this romantic, lacy dress. It's so intricate that all you need to do is add heels and a clutch—and you're out the door!
PJ Short ($290)
We'll admit it: we chose these silky shorts for their comfort factor, but you'd be surprised to see how quickly they turn GNO-ready when styled with a lacy blouse and heels.
Velvet Bow Neck Tie ($306) in Black
Now's the perfect time to get playful with your accessories. We suggest fastening this bowtie collar over a button-down shirt for an alluring take on the tuxedo look.
Not the Enemy Embellished Jacket ($590) in Black
Add this jacket to your outfit for extra polish (we love the silver chain embellishments for a rock 'n' roll vibe).
Hoxton Coated High-Res Skinny Jeans ($199) in Black Coated
Skinny jeans are great, but try a coated pair for girls' night out. They're a little flashier, which is just what you need for an after-hours event.
Sweet Dot Crop Blouse ($32) in Ivory/Black
Bring out your feminine side with this sheer polka-dot top, but downplay its cutesy feel by layering it over a lacy bra.
Crescent Gold-Plated Ear Cuff ($135)
No one can deny the popularity of the ear cuff trend at the moment. Jump on the bandwagon in this statement-making piece!
Chic Jumpsuit with Open Back ($76)
If you're less of a dress or skirts girl, you'll surely appreciate this sleek jumpsuit. Just add a jeweled necklace for a more visually intriguing result!
Beverly Hill Suede Lace-Up Shoes ($646) in Black
Both guys and girls can agree that no GNO outfit is complete without a sexy, strappy heel. Wear these with cropped trousers and a silky camisole.
Lexi Crossbody ($158) in Hibiscus
If you prefer to go hands-free (best for holding more than one cocktail), this cute cross-body is your best bet.

Planning an affordable family vacation to Walt Disney World is a challenging proposition for the frugal parent. The park is notoriously expensive. Tally the costs of park fees, restaurant meals, souvenirs, plane tickets, a rental car and other extras, and the total price of your Disney family vacation can seem downright exorbitant. Oh, and the kids will probably want to buy Mickey Mouse ears, too. What's a parent on a budget to do?
One of the best ways to put together an inexpensive Disney World vacation is by planning a trip during low season, which is generally fall and early winter (excluding holidays), when resort rates fall and Disney deals abound. But pulling the kids out of school in order to save on a Disney vacation isn't an option for every family. If you must visit the Mouse during spring break or summer, there are still plenty of ways to plan a frugal, yet fun, Disney family getaway.
Story: Disney World at 40: What hath Walt wrought?
1. Forgo Disney Resorts during peak season
There are 24 official Disney Resorts at the World, which lure families with the promise of the full "Disney experience." We're talking on-site character meals, Disney-themed decor and easy access to the park. Don't get us wrong — we love Disney Resorts. And, on occasion, it's possible to snag rooms at Disney Value Resorts like Disney's Pop Century Resort or Disney's All-Star Movie Resort for less than $100 per night, especially if you're traveling during the off season. But during peak season, rates rise significantly, and Disney Resorts might not offer as much value as a parent on a tight budget would like.
During peak season, look for a low-priced resort set farther afield from the park. And by farther afield, we're talking roughly one to six miles, which, really, isn't that remote. Sure, you might have to spend a few extra minutes on the shuttle, but your savings will certainly make up for it. Your kids can still partake in a character meal in the park or at any of the Disney Resorts, too. (You don't have to be a guest to eat there.) Plus, many of the budget resorts in the Orlando area offer Disney-themed activities and other alluring amenities on site, like Disney movie showings, kids' pools, and organized games and activities.
2. Share accommodations
Go halves with another family, the grandparents, uncles and aunts — you get the idea. There are plenty of resorts near Walt Disney World that cater to large groups with spacious suites or apartments that have multiple bedrooms. We found a two-bedroom, two-bathroom deluxe villa with a loft, which sleeps up to 10 people, for just $169 per night at Westgate Vacation Villas — and that's the price during peak summer season. Split the room with another group and you're paying just $84.50 per night for your family's stay. Westgate offers a whopping 13 outdoor pools, activities like shuffleboard and bike rentals, and a free shuttle to the main attraction: Walt Disney World.
3. Deals, deals, deals
Did we mention deals? Whatever you do, don't call the Disney hotline and book your trip without searching around for a good bargain. Spend some time researching Disney World deals on the Web. Offers from discounts on accommodations to meal plans to ticket packages pop up often, and frequently feature big savings for families planning visits to the park. But the key is to be flexible. We recommend planning well in advance and keeping your eyes open for the right deal before you set your travel dates. (Most deals have date restrictions that are pretty much set in stone.) Once you decide on your dates and book a flight, it'll be harder to find a decent Disney travel bargain that works for you.
4. Pack it, don't buy it
Like many touristy destinations, Orlando is awash with supermarkets, drug stores and specialty shops that price gouge. Don't be surprised to see bottle of sunscreen that costs $7.99 at your local Rite-Aid on sale for $15.99 in your hotel gift shop. And these little costs can really add up. Make sure you pack everything you and the kids are going to need for your trip, and you could save quite a bit of money.
5. Bring your own food and drinks to the park
Disney World is packed with great restaurants, from dinner theaters such as Disney's Spirit of Aloha Show to character dining options like Cinderella's Royal Table. But meals inside the park and at the resorts are usually rather expensive. (That Spirit of Aloha dinner show? Prices range from $29.99 to $67.99 per person.) You can bring snacks into the park, and empty water bottles to fill up at the water fountains. And, for an easy and affordable lunch, pack some food in a backpack, then store it in one of the lockers available to rent at the entrance to the park — Disney doesn't prevent anyone from bringing food into the parks. Dine on sandwiches, salads or whatever your family likes, for a fraction of the cost of purchasing the same inside the park.
6. Have your character meal during breakfast or lunch
Your child wants to dine on fare cooked by Chef Mickey — with the Mouse himself, of course — and you want to save money. The solution? Book your character meal early in the day for breakfast or lunch, and avoid the costly character dinner. Character meals, which are priced per person, can cost hundreds for a family of four or five. But you can cut costs by choosing the least expensive time to eat, which is generally breakfast or lunch. For example, at the Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom, where Pooh poses for photo ops with families and food is served buffet style, breakfast and lunch prices range from $15 to $35.99 per person, whereas dinner prices range from $36 to $59.99 per person. Really want to save money on a character meet-and-greet? Pay attention to the daily schedule to find out when characters will be out and about at the park. You could meet Pinocchio on Main Street, Minnie in Adventureland and a princess near Cinderella's Castle.
7. Hold off on the Park Hopper
When buying your Disney World tickets, you have the option to purchase a Park Hopper, which provides access to multiple theme parks on the same day for which your ticket is valid. A standard ticket will give access to one theme park. But with a park hopper add-on, you can visit multiple parks — Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom — in one day. Add a Water Park Fun & More option, and gain access to your choice of water parks, such as Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach, in one day as well.
These add-ons look like a bargain. As of this writing, the Park Hopper costs $35 per person and the Water Park Fun option costs $55 per person on top of your ticket price. But watch out — your family might not even need admission to the extra parks. Each Disney Park is massive — and certainly has enough attractions to entertain a family for the span of a day. Are you really going to need to visit two or three parks within eight hours? Hold off on the Park Hopper and buy it when you get there if you decide you really need it. The cost will be the same whether you order the add-on online ahead of time or not (unless, of course, you're booking some kind of special deal).

Green teen reaps rewards of eco-friendliness
SUNDAY PROFILE: Erin Schrode
Marin County teenager Erin Schrode is a bit like Elle Woods, the gorgeous and bubbly character in "Legally Blonde." Like Woods, Schrode is beautiful and vivacious - and not to be underestimated.
Where Woods, played by Reese Witherspoon, campaigned in the "Legally Blonde" sequel to outlaw animal testing in cosmetics, Schrode is on a crusade to get harmful chemicals out of beauty products.
The 18-year-old - who moonlights as a model and was recently featured in Seventeen magazine - has testified before the California Legislature, helped found a national coalition called Teens Turning Green, and started an eco-friendly body care line now sold in Whole Foods stores nationwide.
At the end of August, the "ultimate green girl," as she calls herself, was one of five teenagers from California honored for her activism and impact. She received $36,000, to be applied to college or to her activist work.
"As a teenager, there was a point where I thought, 'Hey, I'm just a kid. What can I accomplish?' " Schrode said, sitting in her home in Ross. "I've answered that question. I went to Sacramento, looked lawmakers in the eye and told them why I thought it was important to take lead out of lipstick and chemicals out of products teens use every day."
Laughing, she added, "When I began this journey, I had no idea what a powerful voice I possessed and that I can use it for the greater good."
Beauty products are but one part of a "whole eco mind-set," notes the teen, who lists offending everyday cosmetic contaminants such as parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate, and petrolatum like other teens trade gossip.
Head to toe
Schrode, a long-limbed brunette, is green from head to toe, from hair products to nail polish, from the toothbrush with 100 percent recycled materials that she uses to the organic bedding she sleeps in. Her garbage bags are biodegradable. Her back-to-school supplies consist of 100 percent post-consumer waste. Her iPod docking station is made of sustainable bamboo instead of plastic.
Even the family dog drinks filtered water.
"I think for my generation, being green is hip," Schrode said. "It's cool. It's not the granola-hemp-Birkenstock-hippie-thing of the past. And it's only becoming more mainstream."
For Schrode, who was raised primarily by her mom, Judi Shils, a former television producer turned environmental activist, eco-consciousness started early.
"There were no plastic bottles that went to kindergarten with her," Shils said. "When other kids pulled out their packaged Lunchables, Schrode had a ball of mozzarella and a tomato. As a child, she always went to the farmer's market and talked to the farmers."
Schrode nodded. "I liked to know who grew my food. I remember being in preschool and telling everyone about pesticides."
Teens Turning Green
In 2005, when Schrode was 13, she and her mother started a group called Teens for Safe Cosmetics, which would eventually become Teens Turning Green. Schrode invited friends to her house and asked them to bring their favorite beauty products. With products in hand, she consulted with a chemist and came up with "The Dirty Thirty," an easy-to-use resource listing the most egregious chemicals found in commonly used products.
"I asked my friends, 'Is this what we want to put into our bodies?' " Schrode said.
The same year, she lobbied before the state Legislature in support of the California Safe Cosmetics Act, which passed. Then in 2008, she was testifying again, this time before an Assembly hearing in support of a bill to remove lead from lipstick sold in California. Schrode told the legislators, "As a teenager, I should not have to choose between beauty and health. And if there is a way that I can reduce the burden on my body, I choose to take that action."
The bill was narrowly defeated, but Schrode's group, Teens Turning Green, is talking with legislators in hopes of getting a similar bill introduced.
In recent weeks, though, Schrode's focus has been on preparing for something else monumental - college life. She is attending New York University, and will use her $36,000 award to help pay her tuition.
Shils gets teary eyed talking of her daughter's cross-country move. "As a newborn, Erin just appeared so wide-eyed and ready to take on the world. She's my best friend. She's a good girl. It's her time to shine. She will change the world - or keep changing it."
$36,000 award
Schrode returned from NYU for the Aug. 31 award ceremony and private luncheon held by the Helen Diller Family Foundation, which selects five teenagers each year for the $36,000 award. Helen Diller and husband Sanford are philanthropists who live in Woodside.
"This is our third class of students," said Phyllis Cook, a philanthropy consultant who has worked with Helen Diller and her family foundation since its inception. "Helen is committed to recognizing teens and giving them encouragement. This award is based on merit, rather than need. It's about encouraging young people in their ideas and energy."
Schrode, who calls herself "such a dork," and likes to hang out with friends, blast Lady Gaga and sleep until noon, acknowledges she has few "eco-sins," as she puts it.
"I search for eco-friendly products until I find one I like," she said.
Mother and daughter laugh recalling a recent conversation about college life. Shils had asked her daughter what she planned to do with her newfound freedom.
"I told her I might use a microwave," Schrode said. "But I told her not to worry. I will only use it to heat Amy's Kitchen organic frozen dinners. And I promise not to heat anything in a plastic container."

Repair the world
Background: The Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Awards, based on the Jewish concept of Tikkun olam - a Hebrew phrase meaning "to repair the world" - are given annually and recognize teenagers who live in California and are exceptional role models in their communities and beyond. Each winner receives $36,000. For information on this year's award recipients, and on how to apply for the 2010 awards, go to www.sfjcf.org/diller/teenawards.

Paul is aggressive, even if Ash warns him to be polite. Pikachu goes to shake hands with Paul's Elekid, but gets shocked and pushed away. Pikachu is ready to attack Elekid and Ash tries to stop him, but gets electrocuted. Enta reveals the prize for winning the Tag battle is a pair of bells, the Soothe Bell. James thinks with the bell in his hand, he will attract each Pokémon. Enta tells the participants they have time to practice with each other before entering the Tag battles. Conway tells Dawn he studied their enemies' strategies and is sure to win. Holly goes with Brock to practice, while Ash is still mad about Paul.
First are Dawn and Conway vs. two trainers. Dawn sends Piplup and Conway his Slowking. The trainers send Scyther and Koffing. Conway advises to Dawn to attack, while letting Conway to be defensive. Scyther uses Razor Wind and Koffing Sludge Wave. Piplup uses Bubble Beam to stop Razor Wind, while Slowking uses Safeguard to protect from Sludge Bomb. Koffing uses Thunderbolt, but gets negated via Slowking's Protect. Scyther uses X-Scissor, but gets stopped and defeated by Piplup's Peck. Koffing uses Gyro Ball, but gets stopped by Slowking's Psychic and defeated by it. Dawn and Conway are the winners of the battle. Dawn is impressed and wants to know Conway's strategy, as it would improve her skills as a Coordinator.
Ash proposes Paul to do the similar, but almost gets burned by Flamethrower. Ash is excited for Chimchar to know the move, but Paul is not impressed, as it was weak. Ash goes to help it, but Paul stops him, as he does not want him to mess everything up. Dawn reminds them it is about the link between Pokémon and people. Citing Cynthia's words, Paul goes away with Chimchar. Ash asks him why he entered the competition in the first place and Paul responds to meet the Fire-type Pokémon. Brock recalls the first time Paul and Ash clashed Pikachu used Thunderbolt on Elekid, though this was to power Elekid up - now he plans to power Chimchar up.
Brock's Sudowoodo and Holly's Wingull face Yanma and Bagon. Wingull goes to use Blizzard, but gets stopped by Yanma's Steel Wing. Bagon uses Zen Headbutt, so Holly orders Wingull to control itself, but Brock knows there is no time, so Sudowoodo's Double Edge pushes Bagon away. The trainers begin to argue and Brock and Holly go to take advantage of it. Wingull uses Blizzard to hit them. Bagon goes to counter-attack with DragonBreath, though Sudowoodo uses Flail to attack it. Wingull uses Aerial Ace, hitting Yanma. With this, both Pokémon are defeated, ensuring Holly and Brock a victory. Brock goes to flirt with her, but stops, remembering her words. Still, Holly is impressed and thinks they could be the best Tag team the world would know.
Next are Ash and Paul vs. two trainers. Ash sends Pikachu and Paul his Chimchar, while the trainers Magmar and Rhydon. Ash warns Paul it will be tough, though Paul thinks Pikachu won't have much effect. Pikachu starts with Thunderbolt on Magmar, but it is redirected to Rhydon, who is not affected. Rhydon attacks Pikachu using Megahorn, damaging him. Paul tells Ash to stay out, but Ash reminds him they are both in this. Magmar uses Lava Plume, hitting everyone. Though Pikachu evades, Chimchar goes straight in. The attack strengthens up Chimchar, who retaliates with Flamethrower, hitting Rhydon. Rhydon attacks using Hammer Arm and goes after Chimchar, but gets attacked by Pikachu's Iron Tail. Magmar uses Protect, while Rhydon uses Surf, but Paul orders Chimchar to use Flame Wheel. Ash tells Chimchar to stop, but remembers Zoey's combination, so orders Pikachu to use Iron Tail.
With a spin, Pikachu's Iron Tail foils Rhydon's Surf and defeats it. Pikachu charges with Volt Tackle, while Chimchar digs. Magmar stops Pikachu with Fire Punch, but gets hit and defeated by Chimchar's digging. Paul and Ash win the battle. James and Meowth are impressed by Chimchar, but Jessie reminds them to focus on the bell. Though they won, Brock, Dawn, Conway and Holly think the separate efforts won, but will not get them the bells. Paul orders Ash to stay out of his way, but Ash reminds him Tag battles require teamwork, thing Paul has not shown yet.
This episode's name is a reference to the statement "Tag! You're it!"
When the first battle match ups are being shown, Paul's picture is shown instead of Conway's.

If anybody is there . Recent problem with Barca 2.8 when trying to correct in an email. In the past no problem but now when I go to correct a word the next letter or space is deleted and the only way I've found around it is to highlight and cut what's good, make the correction then paste back the rest. Very fiddly.
Is there anyway of overcoming this?

New 8.2-Megapixel EOS 20D Digital SLR Features DIGIC II Image Processor, 9-Point Autofocus and Up to 23 Consecutive Frames at Five Frames Per Second
LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y. Aug. 19, 2004 - Designed for advanced amateurs, photojournalists, wedding photographers and professionals who purchase their own equipment, Canon's new EOS" 20D digital SLR combines speed, image quality, ease-of-use, and ruggedness with compact size and light weight to deliver the highest performance in its class. Available in September, the EOS 20D digital SLR will carry an estimated street price of $1,499* without a lens; $1,599* with the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5 -5.6 zoom lens; and $1,999* with the new EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Wide Angle Zoom lens†.
The EOS 20D SLR has a new APS-C (15.0 x 22.5 mm) 8.2 megapixel CMOS image sensor designed and manufactured by Canon. It is the first mid-range digital SLR to offer high-speed continuous shooting of five frames-per-second with a burst of 23 frames at highest JPEG resolution. Uncannily responsive, the camera starts up in 0.2-second and has a shutter release time lag of only 65 milliseconds.
The all-new 9-point AF unit with high-precision cross-type sensor raises the bar on speed, accuracy and precision in mid-range SLRs. The new AF system has one full stop better low-light performance than its EOS 10D predecessor. The new E-TTL II autoflash metering system, inherited from Canon's EOS-1D Mark II professional model, takes into account the distance, reflectance and position of the subject for highly stable, accurate and intelligent exposure calculations.
News Photography/Photojournalism
The new camera's combination of speed and available light shooting capability make it especially appealing to newspaper photographers. Aside from the five frames-per-second burst rate, the EOS 20D digital SLR delivers superb low light performance and exceptionally low noise, even at high ISOs. In fact, images taken at ISO 1600 are approximately equal in noise to those taken with the EOS 10D model at ISO 400. The EOS 20D digital SLR can be used as a backup camera for the high-performance EOS-1D Mark II digital SLR. It is also an excellent choice in its own right for many professional imaging applications where its smaller size and lighter weight give it an edge.
Wedding/Portrait Photography
The Canon designed and manufactured CMOS sensor has a maximum resolution of 3504 x 2336 pixels, which is sufficient for very large prints (up to 16 x 24 inches) with fine detail. Like its big brother, the Canon EOS-1D Mark II, the EOS 20D digital SLR satisfies the wedding photographer's benchmark: facial details in group-shots. The wedding photography business is changing. Consumers are now looking for more natural and candid documentary coverage of their weddings. With the speed and large buffer of the EOS 20D digital SLR, wedding and portrait photographers have a cost effective solution for capturing both posed and candid event photographs.
"Canon continues to endow advanced amateurs, photo enthusiasts and professional photographers with the highest-quality digital SLR cameras available by combining sophisticated camera features with the latest digital imaging technology innovations," said Yukiaki Hashimoto, senior vice president and general manager of the consumer imaging group at Canon U.S.A., Inc., a subsidiary of Canon Inc. (NYSE: CAJ). "In addition, Canon is one of the only companies in the industry that designs and manufactures the three primary components of its digital SLRs: Optics, Image Sensor, and Image Processor."
Canon uses design and technology for customers' sake, not for the sake of technology. Canon has listened to owners of the EOS 10D digital SLR and has considered their opinions carefully. This accounts for the new menu format, the color-coded menu display icons, the reduction of buttons and the addition of the highly efficient Multi-controller, among many other features.
When Size Matters
The EOS 20D digital SLR is both smaller and lighter than the 10D model. The 20D camera is about 3.6 ounces lighter and Canon reduced the width, height and depth by 5.7, 2 and 3.5 mm, respectively. The shutter unit, mirror box, main mirror, pentaprism, focusing screen and viewfinder optical unit have all become smaller as they were optimized for the APS-C sensor. The 20D digital SLR has nearly 100 fewer parts than the 10D model. The new camera retains the rugged stainless steel chassis and magnesium alloy body covers of its predecessor for outstanding durability.
New 9-Point Autofocus System
The sophisticated 9-point autofocus system has a high-precision cross-type sensor in the center position. This new design seen for the first time in the 20D model provides full cross-type performance with maximum apertures as small as f/5.6, yet it achieves up to 3 times the standard focusing precision when used with EF lenses featuring maximum apertures larger than or equal to f/2.8. A new, convenient Multi-controller provides fast and easy AF point selection.
New High Speed Shutter
The EOS 20D has a newly developed shutter with a top speed of 1/8000 sec., user-settable in 1/3 and 1/2 stop increments (in shutter speed priority AE and manual modes) and a maximum flash synchronization speed of 1/250 sec. First or second curtain flash sync is possible. The shutter's APS-C configuration allows a reduction in the size of the unit, smaller shutter blades with lower inertial mass, and shorter travel distance. Stronger magnets are used for each shutter curtain, permitting better control of the blades. A semiconductor switch replaces the traditional sync contacts, ending scorching and frictional wear while at the same time increasing the limit for trigger circuit voltage to 250V. The result of these changes is a more rugged and reliable shutter unit with substantially improved performance.
EF and EF-S Lenses
Particularly among advanced amateur and professional photographers, there has been a growing need for affordable zoom lenses that support true wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle photography. In response to this market demand and to provide users with a truly comprehensive lens system, Canon has expanded its EF-S lens offerings to now include four lenses - the new EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM and EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM zoom lenses as well as standard and USM versions of the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 zoom lens. (Canon U.S.A., launched the standard EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 zoom lens in August of 2003 in conjunction with the EOS Digital Rebel SLR.) The EOS 20D digital SLR is also fully compatible with all Canon EF lenses and with the entire system of Canon EX Speedlites and accessories, including the new Speedlite 580EX flash.
White Balance Compensation
The EOS 20D camera has professional level white balance controls. In addition to Auto, it has six presets, a Custom setting and direct specification of color temperature. White balance can be corrected for blue, amber, magenta or green; white balance bracketing, up to +/- 3 whole stops, can be performed for magenta-green as well as blue-amber.
Flash Forward: Canon Speedlite 580EX
When the EOS 20D digital camera is used with the built-in flash or the new Speedlite 580EX, color temperature data transmission is enabled. The camera has an extensive complement of white balance controls, processing parameters, bracketing options, shooting modes and custom functions that permit the camera to be configured for any situation; the revised menu format, simplified control layout and clever new Multi-controller make the camera easy to use.
Evolved E-TTL II Flash Exposure Control
Though still compatible with all EX-series Speedlites, the "smarter" E-TTL II system captures the subject as a "plane" and ensures that images containing various colors and levels of reflection are captured accurately and optimally. The system compares the ambient light with the reflected pre-flash off the subject reported in all 35 metering zones and selects the areas with a small difference to be weighted for flash exposure calculation. This system also eliminates or under weights areas with large difference recognizing them as an extremely reflective object in the background or as a highly reflective subject, smartly ensuring it by considering the distance information data provided from compatible EF lenses. The system similarly prevents over-exposure when photographers lock focus and recompose the shot by considering the flash output level calculated according to the broader distance. The camera also allows users to select an average metering pattern by using its custom function settings.
New CMOS Image Sensor and DIGIC II Image Processor
The EOS 20D digital SLR includes Canon's latest CMOS image sensor technology as well as the new DIGIC II Image Processor. The CMOS features high-speed 4-channel data reading, brilliant new microlens technology, a 2nd generation, on-chip noise-reduction circuit, and low-noise, high-speed amp, which produces accurate color, extremely low noise and fast recording even at ISO's of 400 and above. Canon's DIGIC II image processor is without question, the most powerful imaging processor that the company has ever put into a digital camera. It boasts improved color reproduction of high-saturation, bright subjects, improved auto white balance precision, and wider dynamic range in highlight areas. In addition to its image quality improvements, the DIGIC II chip is also responsible for speeding up camera performance in areas such as start-up time, autofocus calculation, card-writing speed, direct printing and data transfer speed through the new USB 2.0 High Speed interface.
New .CR2 Raw Format
The Canon EOS 20D digital SLR incorporates the same new RAW format featured in Canon digital cameras from the EOS-1D Mark II model onward. The file extension is .CR2 (Canon RAW, 2nd edition). The RAW data records the white balance data, processing parameters, and other settings. All these settings can be edited freely with compatible RAW file conversion software such as Canon's EOS Viewer Utility and Digital Photo Professional software, which are supplied with the camera.
Exif 2.21 Metadata and Adobe Color Space
There is no need to worry about color space any longer. The EOS 20D complies with DCF 2.0, revised to support Adobe RGB, and Exif 2.21. Images taken in Adobe RGB will have the Adobe RGB color space information, not the ICC profile, appended to the Exif information. (If Adobe RGB is selected from the 20D digital camera's Color Space menu, all processing parameters are available.) Therefore, applications and devices compatible with DCF 2.0 and Exif 2.21 will be able to handle Adobe RGB in the same way as sRGB. When software compatible with Exif 2.21 is used, images captured with the EOS 20D will open automatically in the Adobe RGB color space. When a printer that complies with Exif 2.21 is used, the printer will adjust the color saturation of the print suitably.
Camera Direct Printing
As with the EOS 10D model, the EOS 20D digital SLR is compatible with PictBridge, CP Direct and Bubble Jet Direct print transfer protocol. It also enables DPOF Print Ordering, Version 1.1. The basic specifications are the same as those of the EOS-1D Mark II digital SLR. Printer communications can be set to Normal or PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) with the menu's Communication setting (PTP is required for PictBridge direct printing). PictBridge compliant and Compact Photo Direct printers allow up to eight steps of horizontal trimming, up to five steps of vertical trimming, and a range of print sizes.
Updated Software
The EOS 20D will be supplied with the latest versions of Canon's popular Digital Photo Professional and EOS Viewer Utility software, as well as Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 for image editing.
Kit Configurations
The EOS 20D will be available in body-only or two separate zoom lens kit configurations. All three kits include the camera body as well as the BP-511A lithium-ion battery pack, Battery Charger CG-580, USB Cable IFC-400PCU, Video Cable VC-100, a wide neckstrap, 3 software CDs, printed instruction manuals, and a 1-year Canon U.S.A. limited warranty. The first zoom lens kit includes the standard EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 lens and the second kit†includes the EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Wide Angle Zoom lens.

I have already expressed a love for Top Shop nail polishes! I was gifted these two extremely bright nail polishes from the range to try. How bright are these? Make a change from winter reds I guess!
The shades are Marine Scene, a bright blue and Jewel in the Crown, a teal. I find the shape of these polishes pleasing – maybe it's their simplicity.
Jewel in the crown is a dark green teal emerald type shade. It's so bold and stains easily. Base coat is a must!
My nails are so ridgey at the moment! That's not the fault of the polish really, it's my nails. I wonder if I am deficient!? In something?
Marine Scene is a no holds barred bright blue. It reminds me of a giant whale, although no real whales are this colour!
Is this blue childish? A bit but I don't care! It's really good fun.
Yep, still a Topshop Nail Polish fan!
You can buy the for £5 each.

I have been thinking of putting this for quite some time now. By default no user (other than root) on Fedora 11 has the permission to mount CD/DVD and or ntfs/vfat partitions. So HAL automount does not work for these.
Here is something you can do to fix this:
Open System-> Preferences -> Authourizations
Now, go to org -> hal -> storage and make the changes to suit your needs. You can add or remove a particular user for the operation with the Grant or Block buttons or for all the users system-wide with the Edit button.

In 1972 I got my first job and bought my first car. It was a used 1967 Chevelle Malibu and I loved it. For some reason I don't have a single picture of that car but it looked like the blue one in the picture below except that it was pale green.
Photo courtesy of aresauburn™'s photostream at Flickr
I only had that Malibu for a little over a year. Not because there were problems with it but because a man in his late 70's ran a stop sign and totaled it. His excuse for running the stop sign was that his glasses fogged up and he couldn't see. So I guess he thought hitting the gas instead of the brake was the thing to do in that situation because he came flying out of a side street and I didn't even see him coming. Of the four people in the two vehicles (two in each), he was the only one not hurt. Luckily no one was seriously injured although at times my left knee might disagree with that almost 40 years later.
I can't remember how much I paid for that car but I think it was a little over $1,000. I do remember that the brand new 1974 Malibu that replaced it was $3,500. Over the years I've had several other cars but I've never loved another one.

Some trademark filings make sense, or we can at least see where they're going. Neverdead? Sure. Someone's working on a zombie game. But then Ubisoft goes and uncorks "Horse Gaga" and yes, the mark is for a video game.
The possibilities here are too horrible to contemplate, and if they're alluding to the singer and the animal, Catherine the Great comes to mind first, not someone like Lady Godiva. Lady Gaga does appear astride a bored-looking equine in the music video for "Paparazzi." (Pictured)
The trademark covers "entertainment services, namely, providing an on-line computer game for others over global and local area computer networks and providing information on-line relating to computer games, video games and computer and video games related products." It was filed by Ubisoft on March 23. The day before that they registered the domain name horsegaga.com. I hope no one was cybersquatting on those words; God only knows what they would have demanded in return for giving it up.
