Congratulations to Sarah Philipson of Dallas, the winner of the Flickr Photo of the Week contest! Sarah is one of the most prolific contributors to our little contest, and this week marks her fourth victory. She follows last week's winner, Ian Aberle.
If you would like to participate in the Flickr Photo of the Week contest, all you need to do is upload your photo to to our Flickr group page. It's fine to submit a photo you took previous to the current week, but we are hoping that the contest will inspire you to go out and shoot something fantastic this week to share with Art&Seek users. If the picture you take involves another facet of the arts, even better. The contest week will run from Monday to Sunday, and the Art&Seek staff will pick a winner on Monday afternoon. We'll notify the winner through FlickrMail (so be sure to check those inboxes) and ask you to fill out a short survey to tell us a little more about yourself and the photo you took. We'll post the winners' photo on Wednesday.
Now here's more from Sarah:

Tell us more about your photo: I've recently gotten into photographing at Burlesque shows, and there is a great burlesque community in the DFW area. I love the old-school artistry of these shows, and the confidence of the women (and men) who perform there. This particular shot was from the Burlesque-A-Billy show presented by Broads and Panties at Trees in Deep Ellum on March 6.
One of the girls did a routine that involved dancing on pointe, and I was so taken with the contrast of her classic black toe shoes and the animal-print ribbon that I made it a point to get several shots just of her feet. Because of the harsh stage lighting, I needed a way to emphasize the contrast between classical and rocker-chick, and stripping away the color from all of the shot but that fantastic ribbon seemed like the perfect technique.

Everyone’s seen the pictures, the truly amazing landscape photographers have taken and thought about just how they managed to be so lucky to get that picture. You know the ones I’m talking about, the photo with the perfect blue water or the photo which has a gorgeous waterfall with a rainbow above it. Well you know what? Those photos have virtually nothing to do with luck and more about persistence as well as hard work. So what must you do to ensure that you too get those fantastic photos?
Step 1 – Research:
If you would like amazing shots you have to do a great deal of research. You need to spend more time every week researching new and existing locations than you do taking any photos. Rather than going to a location that you are pondering photographing at exactly sunset, consider getting there an hour and a half prior to sunset and take a good stroll around the area. Take a few test shots of the location and see how they look, lie down on the ground as well as climb up to a high place to see what it looks like from a various perspectives.
Another great technique once you have chosen a location and are setup would be to turn around and look behind you, there has been many times when the shot I in fact ended up taking was in fact behind me.
If you have found a location to capture your landscape photograph and you want another perspective on that location try finding how others have shot that location. Keep in mind don’t copy how others took the photo, but certainly utilize it to see how other people see it.
Speak with people who hike, these people are a truly amazing supply of information and get to areas most of us would never consider.
Once you get to an area that you think may be an excellent candidate work out if it’s a morning shoot or an evening shoot, then go for it and shoot it. Keep in mind weather always plays a significant part in landscape photography and if you don’t get great conditions the first time around, keep going back again until the magic happens.
Step 2 – Persistence:
Many people go to an area a few times and give up when they don’t get the conditions they desire. You have to keep going back and trying various angles as well as shooting it in various conditions until you get the photo you want to achieve, just don’t give up. Getting great landscape photographs is all about hard work and very little luck.
So start researching your locations then get out there and start shooting, you will find yourself capturing amazing landscapes before you know it.

I am so excited to announce that we will now be featuring a Photography section here at 5 Minutes for Mom!
Yes, 5 Minutes for Mom will have regular photography posts for you busy moms — to inspire, encourage and empower you to grab your cameras and capture your lives.
If you want to master a DSLR camera, or just learn how to take better shots with a point and shoot, we are here for you! And of course, we will help you make your pictures look even better with tutorials and tips on Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Lightroom, and more.
Later this week, I will be introducing you to our new 5 Minutes for Mom Photography team — a fabulous, talented group! — and we will be setting up a Flickr group for you all to join in and share your photos with us.
But first, tell us — what do YOU want? What would YOU like to see here at 5 Minutes for Mom Photography? Where are you at with your camera? What programs do you use to process your photos? What do you want to learn?
Avoid objects that draw the eyes away from the subject. The intersection of subject and frame edge draws the eyes away from the interior of the photo. If a dog drinks water from a stream, and it's tail touches the edge of the frame, that is where the viewer's eyes are going to immediately be drawn. A better approach would be to let the tail continue past the frame or make sure the subject is fully contained in the shot.
Pay Attention to Brightness Photo Techniques
The viewers eyes are immediately drawn to the brightest object in the frame. If the subject of the photo is a tan dog, make sure a white dog toy is not off to the side.
Pay Attention to Color Photo Techniques
Color acts the same way as brightness. Strong saturated colors will draw the eye away from the subject. When taking a picture of a friend, make sure a red stop sign isn't competing with the subject.
Use Shapes and lines to Direct the Eye
"Leading lines" are two lines converging which force the eyes to follow the object into the distance. The composition can be arranged to use leading line to it's advantage.
Balance is an Important Photo Technique
After the viewers eyes are drawn to the primary subject, they will travel to the next object taking in the whole scene. If the primary object is on the left of the frame, place the secondary object to the left. Always have an odd number of objects to achieve proper balance. This includes the main subject. Remember the main object, or subject is what the eyes are drawn to first.
Just as a writer and painter tells a story, so does a photographer. Think about what the story is before picking up the camera. In the beginning, composition requires a lot of concentration. A student photographer will need to think in terms of practice, patience and determination. Before long this will become second nature, and the photographer will include them without even thinking, and will turn out beautiful photographs.

In the last few years, I’ve spoken with Frank Dell’apa, Ray Hudson, Grant Wahl, Ives Galarcep, Jack Bell, Bruce McGuire, Jeff Carlisle, Buzz Carrick, Mitch Peacock, Robert Abramowitz, Beau Dure, and others, but it’s been a while since I sat down with one of the flashlight bearers in this little wilderness to get their story.
Now that the soccer journalism transfer window appears to be closing in on the World Cup and a new MLS Season (there is going to be one, right?), I thought it meaningful to get back to basics.
With the USMNT playing in Amsterdam tomorrow, and what with my fascination by the life (I imagine) of an American living in Europe, writing a blog for an American audience, there was no one better to kick this series back into motion than Greg Seltzer, who brings the boys back home through his various outlets as a full-time soccer writer.
Yes, he does earn a living off internet soccer writing.
TIAS: When I mentioned to a few people that I was going to talk to you, everyone was curious about how you make it work over there. And what with the Amsterdam game, figured it was good timing.
Greg Seltzer: Yeah, I think a lot of people are confused that this is actually how I make my living.
Exactly. We’ll get to that, but let’s start at the beginning. Where were you born and raised?
St. Louis, a good soccer town. I went to Ladue Horton Watkins high school and was on the school newspaper all four years. Most of it was not sports-related, but my first experience of this kind was on the high school newspaper. A couple of times I went to the Blues’ locker room after a game or to a practice, and I did a couple of features on a couple of the hockey players back then. I went off to the University of Missouri, in their pre-journalism program, and then I ran out of money and had to go to work.
I started doing other things and various types of writing and non-writing things—working in restaurants and trying to open restaurants and things like that. And then I was in Birmingham, AL, I guess it was 2000 or 2001, and one day realized that Soccer365 was headquartered there. I thought, “Why don’t we kick this writing back up.” It’s always been really natural for me to relate things and tell stories and play with words, so I just walked in there and said, “What do you need me to do?” I wasn’t looking for a lot of money; I just wanted to get back into it.
How old were you?
I was 31. I had been away from it for awhile, so I did a few samples for them and picked up some weekend editor duties, picked up their vacation days, took over the website. I did a few women’s and men’s national team games during that time and just gradually it became full-time, and then that was my job a couple of years later.
So from those beginnings, how do we get to where you are now?
It was certainly not a luxurious living I was making when I first moved to Europe, which would have been August of 2003. When World Cup 2002 was going on, one night after a U.S. game I decided I was going to be working World Cup 2006. I started right then planning and saving. It took about a year-and-a-half before I went. There were times when it was a real struggle, and I needed help from friends. Financially it was hard to make a living, especially when the dollar started going out from under me. There were tough times, but just kind of keep plugging away, and gradually things have improved. Things are going well; I have something coming up I can’t really devulge quite yet (now he can).
So you just picked up and said, “I’m moving to Europe?”
That was the whole idea. I started in Germany and Switzerland to get the scene, be involved in the whole Champions League, European games, and just get myself ready for the cup. Just getting the vibe, get in the flow of it, make contacts, meet people, go to games I’d never been to before, broaden my experience of observing and then reporting or relating from that.
Like lately, right now, I’ve been thinking I want to go take the coaches course, because it will improve my writing, the analysis of my writing. Just broaden my brain, to open it up to more things, get more influences in there. Get involved. It’s a bigger scene, here, and I had done everything that was there, so I had to be at World Cup, go early, and be immersed in the whole thing. It was all about the soccer. An adventure, you know?
Brave soul.
A lot of people thought I was insane. I just got it in my head that that was what I wanted. What I wanted to experience. What I wanted to do. Where I wanted to take this. I just focused on it and got it done. It’s certainly not a microwave oven formula for success. It was what I wanted to do. Enjoying and having a connection to what I am doing is more important than going for every last dollar.
How did soccer grab you to this extreme?
In St. Louis, it’s not hard to run into the game. It’s everywhere. I played rec-league, but mostly played other sports. When I ran outside, soccer wasn’t what I was running outside to do. I do remember my dad loving all things German, and so he would watch Soccer Made In Germany on PBS, and that was where I really started. I have memories still. I was 5 years old. Had to be like 1974.
Part of the show was the Bundesliga, and then they would veer off someplace else, and occasionally to the Dutch national team, which is my first love. I saw a clip of them, and it was instantly clear to me at the time that these guys were doing something nobody else was doing out there. Living in America before the internet, it wasn’t something I could see or experience, so it was rather sporadic. When they won the European cup in 1988, I think I found out a few weeks later. I had no clue.
ESPN started showing Eredivisie games every weekend. Ajax was a machine with it’s Berkamps and Davids, and you could just go one—UEFA Cup, Champions League. And they were on ESPN almost every Sunday. That team was when the passion for it really came in full blown. Then it wasn’t just some distant magically romantic thing, it was there every weekend, live, not three weeks later.
Anyone who has been to No Short Corners can obviously tell I have a love for Dutch football. That was my first love. I didn’t even realize that the U.S. had a national team until I think Ricky Davis was in the team, because I was a big Ricky Davis fan. That had to be mid-to-late Eighties before I realized they even had one. And of course just a few years later the World Cup came around and before you know it, you can’t remember a time when you didn’t follow it everyday.
It’s strange—If anyone asks I have one club: Ajax. But I kind of have two national teams that I live and die with. I get a lot of questions about that. The Dutch were my first love, so you can’t just throw them out.
Is that why you ended up in Amsterdam?
The first time I came here was for 90 Minutes magazine to talk to John O’Brien. It was a really big thrill for me personally, to go to an Ajax match and so forth and so on. I was only here for 3 or 4 days, and I really enjoyed the city. Later on, I went back for a longer time.
I’m still amazed a magazine would send you to Amsterdam.
No, that was all me. I went up there, scheduled it all out while keeping my usual stuff going. They didn’t pay for me to go there.
That sounds more like it.
Yep, so I just fell it love with Amsterdam. It suits me. This is where I feel happiest and most at home. I like that I don’t have to drive a car. I like so many things that we could just sit here and talk about that for hours. But yeah, I had been hopping around a bit, and it was time to stop living out of suitcases so much. I was in Hamburg and Zurich, which I liked as well, but this just feels very natural. It’s in me.
Was it natural for you to focus specifically on Americans, when did that frame come to be?
There wasn’t really a lot of attention paid to guys over here. It makes sense. It had not really evolved to that, and the media didn’t have people traveling all over the place. But I did that John O’Brien piece and a few others—I did Cory Gibbs while he was at St. Pauli, Conor Casey, and others. That was when I was really part on that trail the first time. The magazine—I am over here, and that is what they wanted from me, because, what else would they want? I’m the only one over here.
Talk about cornering a market.
They would just be like, “Who can you go talk to?” I didn’t have quite as many contacts right when I arrived, but I was able to hop on my bicycle to the St. Pauli training ground or grab a train up here. That was I guess the first time I realized that someone needs to be checking in on these guys. I went through Yanks Abroad, went through American Soccer Daily, and yeah, now, everyone and their mother is calling up, after guys all the way down to lower leagues. So I definitely got in on that in the right moment.
You say every and their mother is calling you up, but now it seems everyone and their mother is starting a blog about Americans playing abroad.
They do seem to be springing up.
How do you fit into all of that madness? A lot of people don’t know this is your full-time job. So break that down for me in terms of No Short Corners.
The blog started when I—how do I say this delicately—when I negotiated a new salary or whatever with Soccer365. There were a few blogs out there detailing these stories, but I wanted No Short Corners to be a little different. I wanted to be able to get little posts up about news or if something crazy happened, some goal clip fast, but it says “gonzo” on the tag line up top of the blog, and as much as we have time for, we try to get that stuff in there. Sean and I.
One of the posts I like the best is called Foiled like an old school Ding Dong, and it basically runs through the story of my disastrous trip to Amsterdam ArenA to go interview some players and leaving without a single quote on tape from anyone about anything. I had a busted toe at the time—it was just a big misery story. So we like to put those things in. Sean—he travels around a lot—so when he’s in Columbia or Poland or something, he likes to throw in some of their soccer flavor in there.
I love Sean’s posts; I wish he had more time to do them. But we try to have the stuff people expect that catches them up but also throw in a little odd flavor.
Who those who may not know, who is Sean?
Sean O’Conor. At this point he works outside the soccer writing industry but he still does some things for SoccerPhile and posts on No Short Corners when he has the time. I’m an American, and my way and some of the various things I say are clearly American, and Sean is British and brings a good contrast. He brings a little class to the place. He’s a good partner in this. Gives a good balance. Wish I was rich and could pay him to do it full-time.
So is Soccer365 a full-time job for you?
Yes. As of this moment all of my salary money comes from Soccer365. That will change shortly, but at this moment and for the last long while. I don’t use No Short Corners in any way to make money. I don’t put any effort into selling ads. So Soccer365 pays the bills, but it’s not been steady the way the economy’s been, and the way that this is such a small niche in America. But gradually we try and try, and things have gotten better for me, so on that note, like I said, I’m not living large, but I’m living, and it’s good enough for me.
What’s your daily schedule look like?
This is why everyone hates me. I don’t wake up to an alarm clock. Maybe 3, 4, 5 times a year. So I wake up around 10am, but it depends. That’s one thing about being over here. If there is an MLS match or something, I will have to get myself up to watch that, so maybe I’ll sleep till noon the next day.
I start off getting caught up with news, whatever happened in America while I slept. I check a few things that I’m keeping an eye on. Just getting back into the swing of it. I’ll usually get into making phone calls in the afternoon once people are back from lunch and in the office. I keep track of my regular columns, like Grapevine, which is simply whispers from all over the world. So I will knock those things out and spend most of the day working with the blog or putting together a feature or column. And I have my lunch ritual of watching the Daily Show.
Which leads perfectly into my next question. Is all of your American media consumption online? It has to be, right?
It is, but in the same way Amsterdam’s demographics are very diverse, so are its cable TV offerings. So I’m not just getting Dutch stuff and the Dutch highlight show. I have two English channels, Turkey, Belgium, seven, eight, nine channels from all over the place. Most people don’t have nine league highlight shows on their TV. That helps a lot. Then add in Eurosport, and they show a lot of international stuff. I will occasionally have someone put a computer cam on a TV in the U.S., so I can watch the game on their TV on my computer in Amsterdam. You have to improvise sometimes to find these games. I haven’t actually been at a U.S. men’s national team game since August 2007. So this is going to be a really good thing.
It’s hard being far away sometimes, but you do what you can do and make it work best you can. Because I am not often if ever writing game reports, it’s not essential that I watched the game right there and then. I can wait until there is a replay or there is a video.
Is it fair to say your reading audience is almost entirely American?
At No Short Corners–yeah. At Soccer365, last time I checked, they have a fairly size-able audience in South Africa, some Canadian and Mexican, and there’s a little bit of English people coming over now and again. I was curious about that because we’re facing them in the World Cup, and I think they are sort of spying us a little more than we realize, looking into our bubble.
I think from the geography to your audience, to what you cover, you might be the best example or the most extreme example inside this little bubble of someone who really has used the internet to turn themselves into a soccer writer.
I think that is a good estimation. Before Soccer365, I was invited and was allowed to have the odd guest column in a few newspapers in the States, but I don’t believe any of them were about soccer. So my job is fully a product of the internet, the rise of the news coverage, the rise of the thirst for news coverage—all of it.
And what were you doing in Birmingham exactly when you read about 365 headquarters?
I was unsuccessfully trying to put together a St. Louis Bread Company that would have gone at the Summit, for all the Birmingham people—an outdoor ritzy titzy shopping center atop a little mountain. And there were actually putting one at the Summit just before I left, so somebody agreed with me that it was a terrific idea. Business things, all things business, and yeah, it’s just not my arena; it’s not my comfort zone, it’s not my knowledge base. So yeah unsuccessfully trying to open a restaurant is what I had been doing when I thought, “Hmm, maybe I should go back to doing something that comes a little easier to me.” Yeah, that’s not my scene.

This will be the grand unveiling of their new Nike-made away uniforms. In what is actually a very cool move by Nike
the shirts are made from recycled plastic bottles. I am still deciding
whether I like this new jersey. I appreciate the nod to the 1950 US
team that knocked off England in the World Cup. By the way, England
is the first opponent the US will face in South Africa – NOTE: in
light of the John Terry/Wayne Bridge fiasco it wouldn’t shock me if
between now and then the London tabloids disclose that Wayne Rooney
was caught in a threesome with Margaret Thatcher and Elton John…nothing
about English football would surprise me at this point. So, what don’t
I like about the jersey? The sash sort of reminds me of a school crossing
guard or elementary school hall monitor. It’s wayyyyyy better than
the faux-dungaree abomination (dungaree? What am I 90?) with vomited
stars all over it they wore in 1994. It’s been discussed ad nauseum, but it’s
incredibly annoying that the powers that be with both US Soccer and
Nike insist on introducing new US uniforms every other week. US Soccer
needs an iconic uniform, like say the classic orange rocked by the Dutch.
Uniforms aside, what are the other story lines headed into this game?
Who Will Not Be There
Charlie Davies, Clint Dempsey, and Oguchi Onyewu are all battling back
from significant injuries and will not play in this game. If healthy
all three would start for the US. Davies is in the midst of possibly
completing one of the most bionic recoveries ever. He suffered a gruesome
laundry list of injuries following a fatal car crash in Maryland back
in October. He’s attempting to come back from a broken right femur
and tibia, a broken left elbow, facial fractures and a lacerated bladder.
It’s only been a little over four months since the accident and Davies
is already back training with his French club team (Sochaux) in the
hopes of being fit enough to make the World Cup roster. Enrico may not
let me write for the site again if I fail to mention that Davies, like
Enrico, is a BC alum. Dempsey is aiming to be back playing for club
side Fulham in a few weeks, which would put him on track to be ready
for South Africa. Meanwhile, Onyewu, who is also recovering from
a knee injury, is training with the USMNT in Amsterdam and barring any
setbacks should be ready by June as well. Also, notably absent from
the US roster is Freddy Adu, who has finally been getting some run with
Aris in the Greek Super League. Benny Feilhaber, my soccer mancrush
(not to be confused with Claude Giroux, my hockey mancrush) also is
out with an injury.
Who Will Be There
The
good news is that a majority of the presumptive starting eleven will
be there. This includes (from back to front) Tim Howard, Carlos
Bocanegra, Jay DeMerit, Jonathan Spector, Michael Bradley, Landon Donovan,
Stuart Holden, and Jozy Altidore. Donovan, the all-time leading goal
scorer in USMNT history, has been silencing critics who were skeptical
of his ability to excel outside of CONCACAF and Major League Soccer
following his loan to English Premier League side Everton.
To
get an idea of just how far US soccer has come it is worth noting that
every single player I’ve mentioned thus far plays professionally in
Europe (although Donovan plays for the L.A. Galaxy his loan to Everton
has been an incredible success with rumors swirling that he may remain
in England, so I am counting him as a Europe-based player). Why is this
worth noting? Well, much like European hockey players come to the US
to play in the NHL, which is the best (and highest paying) hockey league
in the world, more and more US soccer players are signing with European
clubs. The level of competition and scrutiny is much higher in European
leagues. In order for the US to compete with the elite soccer countries
US players must continue to play and succeed in the top European leagues.
What to Watch For
Despite
the amazing progress he’s made it’s far from a done deal that Davies
will be healthy come June 12th when the US faces England.
There is a good chance that Bob Bradley is going to need to find someone
to partner with Jozy Altidore up top. Ideally that person would be Clint
Dempsey, who for some reason Bradley often deploys in the midfield.
The only other forwards on the US roster for this game are Robbie Findley
and Eddie Johnson (Adu’s teammate with Aris). Johnson is a complete
enigma. Upon making his USMNT debut he scored seven goals in his first
six games, which is great. He’s only scored five in his last 33 games,
which is not so great. He’s a striker who is seemingly afraid to shoot.
Think Allen Iverson, only the complete opposite. Findley has been on
the field (I hesitate to use the word “played” because he’s been
invisible when given the chance) over the last few friendly’s. Given
the lack of scoring on the roster it’s mildly surprising that Bradley
did not include Brian Ching or Connor Casey (although the argument could
be made that their skill sets are too similar to Altidore’s). Going
forward we need to pray that either Davies continues his miraculous
comeback, or that Bradley plugs Dempsey in alongside Altidore.
If
Bradley plans on playing Dempsey up top then there is also a potential
opening in the midfield. I’d imagine Ricardo Clark, who is not on
the roster and is getting zero playing time in Germany, would step into
the middle to partner with Michael Bradley in a central midfield role.
With Clark out on Wednesday I wouldn’t be surprised if Maurice Edu
gets a long look. DaMarcus Beasley, who has been about as healthy as
Ray Emery, makes his return to the US team. Finally, I’ll be hoping
that US defender Jonathan Bornstein eats too many space cakes in an
Amsterdam coffee shop and misses the team bus to the ArenA. He’s a
World Cup own goal away from me preemptively calling the Chester Police
and turning myself in prior to his club Chivas USA taking on the Union
at PPL Park. Pray he does not see the field.
Prediction
Dutchman
Dirk Kuyt, who looks like Sloth from The Goonies, is the most tireless
soccer player you’ll ever see. His work-rate is through the roof.
His teammate Arjen Robben, who appears to be approaching middle age,
but is somehow only 26 years old is a fantastically skilled player who
should give the US back four fits. Also, assuming he is healthy it is
an absolute joy watching Wesley Sneijder play (he’s sort of like a
point guard who orchestrates the offense and pulls all of the strings).
The Dutch play an incredibly attractive brand of soccer. Combine all
this with the fact the US is notoriously awful on European soil. So
what is my prediction? Best case: the US somehow wins. Worst case: they
emerge from the game injury-free. Reality: 3-1 Netherlands.
Many thanks to Rev for dropping his footie knowledge on us.

Joel Lindpere is looking like an answer in central midfield. Signed as a left winger, Lindpere was given the chance at the Disney Classic to play in central midfield, where he has played previously in his career, and he was thoroughly impressive with his relentless work rate and sharp passing. He's not a classic playmaker, but he can help the Red Bulls win the battle in the middle.
"He was a different class," Red Bulls head coach Hans Backe said of Lindpere's play in the middle. "Central midfield isn't where he hasn't played recently but he could play well there in this league."
——————
Roy Miller may solve the club's long-standing left back woes. Few positions caused more headaches for the Red Bulls in 2009 than left back, but that may no longer be the case now that Costa Rican Roy Miller has emerged as a very strong option at left back. He's dangerous and effective getting forward, but is also solid as a defender so he's not a liability in the back. He's got good size as well so he can handle himself in the final third and penalty area.
He had been touted as a central defender, and saw time on the left wing at the Disney Classic, but left back is where he will make the biggest impact.
——————
The rookie most likely to begin the season as a starter is Tim Ream. That might be tough to believe considering Tony Tchani is on the team, but Ream has thoroughly impressed with his poise, touch, vision and passing ability. Red Bulls coach Hans Backe calls him a prototypical European-style centerback and lauds his passing ability and cerebral approach to the game.
——————
John Agudelo needs to be signed QUICKLY. Six months ago, Agudelo looked like a skinny kid who was several years away from being able to contribute as a pro. Today, he looks like a very different prospect and someone who could be making an impact as early as 2011. Agudelo has filled out physically and is playing with supreme confidence. He's still a bit raw and inconsistent, as you would expect for a player his age, but Agudelo has the look of a future star and just might be the top rookie to emerge from 2010 when it's all said and done. That's if he signs.
——————
The goalkeeper situation is still unresolved. Bouna Coundoul is the starter, but I don't get the impression that the coaching staff is sold on him as the starter. Caleb Patterson-Sewell and Greg Sutton are still vying for the No. 2 spot, with Patterson-Sewell looking like the favorite there. The question at this point is whether the Red Bulls will look to address this position considering the other needs the team still has. Our money is on the club sticking with Coundoul and Patterson-Sewell, at least until the summer.
——————
The Red Bulls are still looking for a right back, forward, central defender and left midfielder. Sounds like they're looking for everything, but certain positions are more pressing concerns.
Forward is a position the club is expected to address, though that address may not come until the summer. As it stands, Macoumba Kandji has been sidelined by a groin injury and there continue to be questions about his toughness and penchant for missing time with minor injuries. When healthy, he's the clear choice to start alongside Juan Pablo Angel, but he hasn't been healthy. If the club really is moving in for Thierry Henry, this might be a position that is left as-is for the time being.
John Wolyniec remains an option, but is looking more like a bench option right now. Connor Chin has looked good and could see minutes if the club doesn't add any more strikers.
At right back, Enar Jaager has impressed as a trialist but still hasn't convinced the club to pull the trigger on a contract. Luke Sassano has been used at right back but looks a touch slow to be a first-choice option there. Chris Albright is still sidelined and it remains unclear whether he will be an option. Then you have Jeremy Hall, who has been used at a variety of positions. He could very well wind up at right back again after spending much of his rookie year there.
Central defense isn't the pressing need it once was thanks to the play of Tim Ream, but don't be surprised if another centerback is brought in. This is particularly true if Kevin Goldthwaite's recovery from off-season surgery winds up taking longer than expected.
Left wing is a position that needs to be addressed if Lindpere is going to wind up in central midfield. Backe can go with Jeremy Hall or rookie Austin Da Luz, but he may be inclined to search the international market. Lindpere could still wind up on the left flank, particularly if Tony Tchani continues to impress and makes himself a viable starting option alongside Seth Stammler. With Tchani, it's more a matter of when, not if he will wind up a starter.
—————-
So what will the starting lineup look like for the 2010 Red Bulls? There are likely to be some new players brought in, but based on what the club currently has, here's a potential starting XI we could see when the season starts a month from now.
—————-Angel———Kandji——————
Lindpere——Stammler—Tchani——–Richards
Miller——–Ream———-Petke————–Hall
———————Coundoul————————
—————
What do you think about the Red Bulls' pre-season so far? Like the roster moves the club has made? Still think they are missing too many pieces?
Share your thoughts below.
The title you see above are the words that Deon Thompson published on his Twitter feed today in the hours leading up to Senior Night for Carolina Basketball. Every season, I write a post about the graduating seniors from UNC. This season hasn’t been exactly what we expected it to be. It’s been frustrating to say the least, but none of us fans have been as frustrated by it as the players themselves. As I watched the loss column rack up numbers I hadn’t seen in nearly 10 years, my heart ached for Marcus Ginyard, Deon Thompson, and Marc Campbell. How could this be their last season, but then I reminded myself that it’s not about one season or one game. It’s about the journey. It’s about the whole story. It’s about the career. And my goodness what a career those three men have had. They’re all National Champions. They’re all back to back ACC tournament champions. Simply put, they’re all Tar Heels.
I could sit here and tell you about each of them. I could tell you about how Marcus had to give up his real senior year due to injury and watched from the bench as his friends and teammates played for a National Championship, but what you might not have noticed is how much of a cheerleader he was. That when you see pictures of the goofy smiles as the players celebrated in Detroit, Marcus’s smile was the biggest of them all. I don’t think any one of those players could have asked for a better teammate. I could tell you about Marc Campbell who is a Carolina basketball legacy as his father played for the program, too. We haven’t seen much of Marc this season because he’s part of the clean up crew that comes in at the end of blow outs. But, what you don’t know is that the length of his hair has gotten longer and longer every year and that I nearly walked right into him in Chapel Hill once. He’s honestly an incredible ball handler and a very, very underrated point guard. He’s a classic example of someone who probably could have started at some other schools in the country but chose to come to UNC because it’s UNC. And then I could tell you about Deon Thompson. The kid who grew up on the entire opposite side of the country and knew absolutely nothing about Carolina basketball before he decided to become part of the tradition. I could tell you about how his game has improved every season because he has put in the time and the hard work. He doesn’t try to be a player that he’s not. He just tries to be Deon, which is pretty fantastic.
Sure, I could tell you all of that, but instead I’m going to let Deon tell you how much the last four years have meant to him. The following is a speech Deon gave at a dinner for Rams Club (booster organization) Donors, so without further adieu, Deon Thompson, in his own words…
I want to reach out to you all and tell you what you have done for me while also saying thank you!
For me growing up in California, I didn’t know very much about Carolina athletics — much less Carolina Basketball. At home, pro basketball is a bigger deal than college basketball, so I knew about James Worthy, because he played for the LA Lakers. And when Roy Williams made his recruiting visit to my home, I knew I wanted him to be my coach. I thought Carolina would be the best possible place for me to get an education while also playing basketball at the highest level.
What I found out when I got here was that everything at Carolina is done at the highest level. The first fall I was on campus, women’s soccer won a national championship. That spring, Brie Felnagle won the 1500 meters national championship and Justin Ryncavage won the javelin throw national championship. The baseball team went to the College World Series. The women’s basketball team went to the Final Four.
We lost to Georgetown in the NCAA tournament final eight. We were one of the best teams in the entire country…by we weren’t even the best team on our own campus.
We did a little better the next year — we made it to the Final Four. But that same year, field hockey won the national championship. The baseball team went back to the College World Series.
In the fall of 2008, women’s soccer won the national championship — again. That’s their 19th NCAA championship. Do you know how hard it is to find room for 19 banners? The men’s soccer team played for the national championship, and so did the women’s lacrosse team. The baseball team went to the College World Series — again.
A couple weeks ago, my teammates and I stood in the Smith Center and watched them unveil the banner for our 2009 national championship. It reminded me of all the hard work that went into winning that title. But it also reminded me how high the standard is at Carolina.
Since I got here, I’ve gone to Boshamer Stadium and watched Dustin Ackley — the best hitter in college baseball — play. I’ve gone to Kenan Stadium and watched Hakeem Nicks — the best receiver in college football — play. I’ve gone to Carmichael Auditorium and watched Ivory Latta — the best point guard in women’s basketball — play. I know some schools have a great program or maybe even two. But there’s nowhere else that you can walk across campus and see the very best in so many sports on any normal day.
Being a Tar Heel is more than just the Old Well or the fight song or Franklin Street. It’s doing things the right way — in every area. We’ve been the top-ranked ACC school in the Director’s Cup all three years that I’ve been here. But it’s more than winning. We also had 274 student-athletes on the 2009 ACC Academic Honor Roll.
The Rams Club members here gave all of us the opportunity to make that happen. I know there are other benefits to giving a scholarship. You get tickets, or you get a better parking pass, or you get the chance to come to dinners like these. But just know that you did something I appreciate even more: you gave a kid from California a chance to come to Chapel Hill, spend the best four years of my life, and totally understand what it means to say I’m Deon Thompson, and I’m a Tar Heel.
Thanks Marc, Marcus, and Deon for the memories and for showing all of us what it means to be a Tar Heel. It’s been a pleasure.

This weekend I went on a paranormal investigation with the group I’m in; we went to the Granada Theatre in Ontario. It was a very interesting experience. Not so much as in the paranormal activity, though I haven’t yet reviewed my stuff, but in a different way for me. It was a great opportunity for me to figure out how I need to grow as an investigator, as well as recognize the skills that I already possess that make me the investigator that I am. I learned a lot.
1. Just because I heart my Nikon, doesn’t mean that it’s very helpful on an investigation. It won’t take a photo / the flash won’t activate in a dark room. Now, probably there is some way I can bypass it, but why bother, really?
2. I need to become more confident in asking questions in an EVP session. I overthink what I’m going to say, and worried that I’ll sound dumb, or stupid or say the wrong thing. It’s the same reason I refuse to do voice chat and I avoid picking up the phone. It’s something that I probably won’t get over completely, but I need to either remember some standard questions, or just get over worrying about what other people will think. It’s just one fun facet of social anxiety- yay!
3. I also need to stop being afraid of speaking up. Period. I need to mention if I hear a weird noise or something, because here its important, not something to treat as a normal occurance.
4. I need either a K2 or another way to be able to read my EMF meter in the dark. I love my meter, but it’s hard not to be able to read it. I have a workaround in my head- maybe a small unbright glowstick- like the mouth ones for ravers?
5. The ability to meditate has made it easy for me to just sit still, silent and unmoving. Apparently, some people can’t do that?
6. I follow direction well. If someone tells me to be quiet, I will be quiet. I don’t see the reason to have a conversation while other people are trying to have an EVP session – what can’t wait for 10 minutes? I think that might go back to meditation- I don’t feel the need to fill the silence.
7. I’m not sure when I lost complete fear of the dark, but the ability to sit in a completely pitch black old theatre without any anxiety is really awesome for me.
8. My little bag that I made held up fairly well, so that was a little “yay”. The strap didn’t break, even with the big Nikon and the camcorder in the largest pocket. The recorder slipped out of the pocket, though, but it was fixed by using the clip on the recorder.
9. It was fun to use my IR thermometer, but it’s hard to tell where you are pointing in the dark. I need to figure out how to use that a little better if I don’t want to permanently blind my teammates.
10. Thick socks. Always pack thick socks. My feet were ice.
11. I need to practice opening myself up so that I can be more “sensitive.” This was kind of my dry run in this respect, and I did get some impressions (one I had no idea about until afterwards, and the name I got wasn’t the one a psychic had given our guide). I need to figure out a way to practice this. Trying to do this in a group of like eight people –as someone who is trying to get used to it- was a little difficult. I might take a little trip up to Founders or something and see what I can sense. Maybe Wednesday or Thursday. Expand my awareness or someshit. I had a pretty good thing going on at suicide bridge, and heard a voice and saw a dark figure there, and got EVPs when I was in the place I was drawn to. I’d love to go back there again.
12. Also, in regards to sensitivity, I’d like to figure out a way to take notes of what I’m feeling- I guess I could speak quietly into my recorder, but that might seem like ‘evidence’ to another person on their recorder.
And that’s what I learned this weekend. 
I’m still going to work on that bag tutorial. Also, a cosmetic bag tutorial, too.

There is clearly something wrong with the pictures. A consumer level zoom is capable of that kind of sharpness and I doubt that Canon has got the nerve to release an inferior replacement version and charge more for it.. Especially not when it is their best selling professional lens we’re talking about here. It’s not like they are going to continue the production of the Mk.I. So unless this is at least as good as the previous version they’ll lose a huge market.
My guess is that it’s a lens/body problem and that the good people at lenstip should have done some micro focus adjustments to it. Front focusing could easily explain the bad IQ.
Still, you can’t be sure so it’s bad news for me. I was going to buy this lens as soon as it hits the market (which should be any day now in Europe) but now I’ll have to wait for some serious reviews to make sure that these pictures weren’t representative. I’m not inclined to buy the Mk.I version. If I’m about to spend a considerable amount of money on a lens, I want it to be the latest technology.
Regardless, this doesn’t put Canon into a too good light. You have a pro body (1Ds Mk.III) coupled with a pro lens and get crap results. Not too impressive.

I was photographing in the last months – please tell me your thoughts:
src Tell me if you like them – i love to discuss the photos with you!
After making the decision to schedule your boudoir photography session it's time to start preparing. Here are a few tips to ensure you get the best boudoir portraits.
1. Makeup
It is strongly recommended to hire a professional makeup artist. It will add to the overall cost of the boudoir portraits but will be well worth it in the long run. You may find that some boudoir photographers include a professional makeup artist in your boudoir package. And others photographers will be able refer you to a makeup artist.
Remember to allow at least 30 – 45 minutes if you're having your make up applied or an hour and a half if you are having your hair styled as well.
If you choose to do your makeup yourself here are a couple of pointers:
- Eye makeup and blush should be fairly heavily applied. Try and be neat and precise. Boudoir photography tends to be unforgiving.
- Don't use frosted lipstick! It appears too light in photographs.
- Keep eye shadow a shade lighter than normal to accentuate your eyes.
- Lipstick should be at least a shade deeper, particularly if you have dark hair or are going to wear dark clothing.
- Use powder based make-up to maintain a matte finish on your skin.
Clothing and Props
Boudoir, or erotic photography, is often associated with nudity or lingerie. As a matter of fact, a lot of men find their wives dressed as it's also known in their gear to be more attractive than dressing in lingerie. Naturally you should to stick with something you are comfortable with.
The choice of props and clothing for your boudoir portraits are literally endless. Some interesting possibilities are:
His favorite sports team jersey, some tools of his trade, his uniform or a favorite button down shirt. Or maybe something a little more classy like a slinky cocktail dress, a fur coat, a blouse, gloves and hats and of course the old favorites stockings and high heels.
Perhaps sexy choices like a bodystocking, colorful panties and bra, boy shorts, way too tight cut-offs – actually anything tight and anything transparent! If you have any tasteful photographic nudes you want to copy, bring the photos along. Non traditional items are also very effective for boudoir photography.
Some goodies are a bath robe or towel, tight shorts, biker shorts, tight or short tank tops, tees with rips or holes, anything leather, scarves, mini skirts, your slumming at home outfit, boxer shorts, the tools of your trade, workout outfit, cowboy boots and hat, and anything he has given you.
Some great ideas for boudoir portrait props include most home or romantic items, flowers, sun glasses, scarves, beads, wine glasses or teddy bears. Try and consider your choice of these items from his perspective. This is a gift for him after all. Don't be afraid to be daring and creative.
When thinking boudoir, don't forget about the details, check for labels on new items and look out for tears or holes, unless you want them there, of course!
Boudoir photography takes a bit of planning and time. So consider these other tips for your big day.
Relax.
Have something light to eat before the shoot and try and have a bottle of water or juice handy. If you feel a little nervous, ask your sister or girlfriend to sit in with you. You could even split the session with them!
Manage your time.
There is nothing that ruins the atmosphere of boudoir photography quicker than being stressed. Leave yourself enough time to have your hair and makeup done and to get home in good time to complete any last minute errands.
Try to wear loose fitting clothes that don't leave marks.
These take awhile to clear and can waste valuable time. Button up shirts will leave your makeup and hair intact and clear deodorants allow for a larger range of the poses that make for great boudoir portraits.
For His Eyes Only
Taking boudoir portraits is a great gift for the man in your life, it's for his eyes only. And just remember, boudoir photography is erotic, glamor, and naughty all rolled up into one…have fun!

I have had my Motorola I670 for almost 6 months now and it is overall a decent phone, I would say that it does what it's supposed to and I don't have any problems with it. A good phone but a basic phone, pretty much what I consider low-end cheap flip-phone. I would say this phone is for anyone with a budget that loves Nextel and wants a phone with their most basic features and isn't worried about style. This phone retails for around ($249) for full price but with rebates and instant savings you can look to pay around $49.
The Motorola I670 has been called bulky by other reviews and I disagree its no bigger than any other cell phone in its class, it is 3.5 by 2 by 10 inches and weighs in at 4.1 ounces. This means it's just a little bigger than a pack of gum; it fits fairly easily into your pockets and doesn't feel uncomfortable.
The shape is pretty standard but it has some style to it, it's not ugly but most teenagers won't want such a simple phone. It has a sleek design that makes it to carry around but lacks a protective cover of plastic, which my old Nextel phone was the toughest phone around and could handle being dropped without many repercussions. This phone however has not protective coating and if you drop it, you can expect scratches and other blemishes, and it is also susceptible to the SIM card being jarred loose. This has happened to me a couple of times after dropping the phone.
The phone lacks several features that will make some consumers shy away, for instance it doesn't have an external display which a lot of people like. Without the external display you have to open the phone to see who is calling and to know if you want to avoid answering the call or not. Many people also use their cell phones as a way to keep track of time and without the external display they have to open the phone to see the time which is a pain, a nice external display would greatly increase this phones value. A camera is another option this phone lacks, most new phones are capable of taking pictures, and this one is not. Many people want a phone that can take pics or video and this one doesn't do either, I don't really care I have a digital camera that I paid a lot for so I don't need a lousy cell phone camera, but most people do enjoy this feature, which the Motorola I670 lacks.
The internal display is nothing to swoon over either, most cameras in its class have 262,000 colors and the display on the Motorola I670 only has 65,000 colors. This is a huge difference and makes for a less bright and sharp display. The lack of camera on the phone also means if you want to change your background image you either have to download one from their site or create one and get a cable to allow you to transfer the image to your phone. Either way it's a hassle.
The menu has also changed from a much easier to use and attractive menu on the Motorola I870. It does however have a very extensive menu that is fairly user friendly, but it can be pretty in-depth at times. The layout of the keys is pretty standard but they added a rubberized texture to the buttons and they also backlit the buttons. The one issue I have with the buttons is that the light on them takes a good 20 seconds to come on and is a pain if you are trying to push buttons in the dark.
The phone book is where Nextel is always business friendly they offer a 600-contact phone book that allows room in each entry for 7 phone numbers, email address, IP address, and of course a Direct Connect number. You can also organize your contacts into a series of groups for regular or PTT calls. You can set each individual person or group to one of the 17 ring tones you wish. The phone also features some other helpful gadgets, such as voice dialing, a calendar, memo pad, call and voice memo recorder, memo pad, text messaging, speaker phone, airplane mode, and onboard GPS. Of course you also get the Direct connect Walkie-talkie service which lets you chat with up to 20 others via PTT at once.
The phones add-ons are pretty limited as I mentioned before, you don't have much in a selection of wallpaper, the games are all trials and if you want full versions you have to buy them. So no teenagers are going to appreciate this phone, you can't take pics of your friends, no video recording capabilities, no games, and it's not an mp3 player. Basically I would label this phone the perfect phone for a business person on a budget.
Other than physical features let's talk about how well the phone works when in use. Over all in the Kansas City area I get great reception and never have issue hearing people when using the cellular talk service. The direct connect was just as good with few interruptions, but sometimes you will get a garbled bunch of voice and be forced to ask for a repeat of the message. My wife uses the direct connect to talk to her family in Mexico a lot and hardly ever has any issues. The speaker phone works well; people have said they didn't know they were on speaker until I told them.
Battery life is pretty good with about 2.75 hours of continuous talk time and 5 1/2 days. When tested I got about 3 hours of talk on my battery and almost 7 days without a recharge.
Overall this is a good standard phone that you can get a good price and will do what you would expect a phone to do. It doesn't have a lot of extras but for those of us who don't want the extras this is the perfect budget cell phone.

Lean Six Sigma is an altered form of the Six Sigma process. Although it has the basic fundamentals of Six Sigma, Lean has a few differences that set it apart from basic Six Sigma Training. Knowing the difference can prove to add more to your quality improvement projects then you would have ever thought possible.
There are eight elements of waste that Lean Six Sigma focuses on. It has been proven that once these areas are removed from a company, their quality has improved. The following is a list of what the Lean process considers to be waste and examples to each area.
-Wasted Human Talent: This category includes any employee that is not pulling their weight, thus slowing the process down. It also includes anyone without a specific job function within the process.
-Defects: This refers to any product or process within your company that is not properly functioning. Prior to eliminating these defects, however, a solution to fix them needs to be put forth.
-Inventory: Too much product waiting to be worked. This can also refer to too many patients in a doctors waiting room, for example.
-Overproduction: You never want to have to much of something before it is needed. This can get in the way of a well-organized operation.
-Wasted Time: many times you will find that you can not go any further until you receive a product or piece of information from someone. Instead of sitting around waiting, this time would be better spent on processes or activities that may need some extra assistance.
-Motion: Simply put, too much unnecessary movement by people. For example, a clinic that sends patients to triage when they have booked appointments is wasted movement because they can go straight to the exam room.
-Transportation: Ineffective transportation that moves people and products can be wasteful when it isn’t needed. Imagine a warehouse using a forklift to deliver items across the factory to a truck, when the production line could be streamlined to deliver right into the truck off of the line.
-Process Waste: Process Waste refers to any that a company requires to be complete, however it has no impact on the process, product or service that the company offers.
By utilizing Lean Six Sigma and understanding the areas of waste, you are sure to improve the quailty of the product that is produced by you company.
Create the most of your business skills with six sigma training. Getting green belt six sigma will benefit yourself in addition to your business. To learn more log onto www.sixsigmaonline.org.
The Rutgers University chapter of the Sigma Gamma Rho sorority was suspended by the school after six “sisters” were arrested for brutally hazing at least three pledges.
According to one pledge, over the course of seven days four members of the sorority repeatedly beat her, leaving her “unable to sit, her buttocks covered with blood clots and welts.” The pledge ended up being hospitalized for her injuries.
Two other members watched over the hazing.
Throughout the week, the alleged attackers told the pledges that the purpose of the beating was to build trust between them and to humble them.
Those arrested and charged with felony aggravated hazing were Llana Warner, 20, of The Bronx; Vanessa Adegbite, 21, of Jersey City; Joana Bernard, 21, of West Orange; Kesha Cheron, 20, of Newark; Shawna Ebanks, 21, of East Orange; and Marie Charles, 21, of West Orange.

Microsoft's long and winding road toward regaining lost ground in the cell phone business will reach an important milestone in Barcelona next month.
At the annual Mobile World Congress event, Microsoft will at long last show off Windows Mobile 7–its oft-delayed major revamp of the decade-old Windows CE code base that has been at the core of its mobile operating system since the days of challenging the Palm Pilot.
Sources told CNET that Microsoft is still planning to finalize the code for Windows Mobile 7 by summer in order to have the new software on devices that ship before the end of the year.
Separately, though, Microsoft is also working on a new consumer phone line, early pictures of which cropped up last year, that is designed to be the next generation of the Sidekick product line that Microsoft inherited with its acquisition of Danger.
Although it is not a widely rumored “Zune Phone,” the new consumer device is based on Windows Mobile and likely to be able to connect to Zune and other consumer services that Microsoft has been developing for some time now, sources said. That product, also due to arrive this year, should come earlier in the year ahead of Windows Mobile 7 devices.
Microsoft declined to comment on Windows Mobile 7 or the new consumer device, but Robbie Bach, the head of the company's entertainment division, did tell CNET in an interview at January's Consumer Electronics Show that Microsoft would have a lot more to say about the future of the phone business in Barcelona. Microsoft has also promised developers headed to the Mix 10 trade show in March that they will be able to get information on how to program for Windows Mobile 7.
“Yes, at MIX10 you'll learn about developing applications and games for the next generation of Windows Phone,” Microsoft said on the Mix Web site in a Jan. 20 update. “Yes, we'll have Phone sessions, and we can't say more…yet.”
Although Microsoft has typically been loath to make major changes to the desktop version of Windows at the expense of compatibility, the software maker appears ready to make a bigger break with its mobile past–a sensible move given its declining share of both the market and developer interest.
With Windows Mobile 7 hit by several delays, Microsoft last year released Windows Mobile 6.5, an interim update designed to make the current operating system more “finger-friendly” on touch-based devices. The company also rebranded devices using its operating system as “Windows Phones” and launched a new marketing campaign.
At the same time, though, longtime Windows Mobile phone makers including Motorola and HTC have been gravitating toward Google's Android mobile phone operating system. LG, which had planned to center its smartphone efforts on Windows Mobile, has also said it will offer a number of Android-based devices.

The PMA Photography Expo is just around the corner and a leak today makes mention that Canon could be showing off Digital SLR cameras with swivelling displays. Two new cameras were specifically mentioned which includes the Canon EOS 60D and a new Rebel which both are reported to feature an articulating LCD display to allow image capture at awkward angles.
The Canon 60D will fall in to the mid-range category of Canon DSLR cameras and the tipster mentions that the 60D will contain the same metal body of the EOS 50D along with the same 15 megapixel resolution although the sensor used to achieve that will be new. It is expected that the low-light sensitivity of the EOS 7D will be found in the 60D.
As well as having an improved sensor the camera will be capable of capturing 1080p video at 30 frames per second.
The Rebel camera is tipped to be similar to the Rebel T1i (aka EOS 500D) but with the similarities the camera will also use the EOS 60D’s sensor. It is expected that the new Rebel will be able to capture video at 720p at 30 frames per second although it is unclear if the camera will be able to bump that up to 1080p at a 20 fps capture like the T1i is capable of.
Prices are expected to be around $1,190 for the Canon 60D while the new Rebel is expected to be around the $800 mark.

Rumors suggest that Canon is leaving no stone unturned for a February launch for its EOS 60D DSLR and the Canon 550D/600D. No doubt that Canon has been feeling the heat of the competition from Sony with its point-and-shoots waterproof cameras and Nikon with its swivel-screen displays.
The Canon 60D may inherit 50D’s metallic body and 15.1 MP resolution but it’s likely to have an improved sensor and offer low-light sensitivity. The new Rebel would be of a smaller size than the existing Rebel T1i and would be capable of at least 720p30 video.
Watch out for Canon’s possible announcements at PMA Photography Expo on 20th February, 2010 for more.

I’m not ordinarily the type to rush out and purchase the newest and trendiest technology. Ordinarily, I wait. I hear what friends have to say. I let the longevity of a product serve as a testament to its functionality and durability. So even I was surprised when I up and decided to purchase Motorola’s V3 Razr. I felt I had to make the purchase: The product looked so sleek and modern, and everyone in the commercials looked so happy with one. Let me tell you, it was a mistake. Here are 10 reasons why you should not buy the Motorola Razr V3
10. Screen Issues: Within the first week of purchase, my phone began collecting large amounts of white dust underneath the screen. When I took the phone to Cingular they informed me—for the first time—that I was not supposed to keep my phone in my pocket, but they would be happy to remove the dust for a fee of $25.
9. Overall Frailty: Within the first two weeks of owning the Razr V3, the cord that runs the length of the number-pad broke, rendering all buttons worthless. My phone was out of commission for four days and the repair—although covered by warranty—cost me $15.
8. Screen Issues, Again: Large amounts of oil and dirt build up on the screen. I’m not a particularly dirty guy, and there seems to be an oily discharge on screen at all times. It makes the screen difficult to see in sunlight.
7. Placement of Web browser Function: With Cingular charging me 20 cents every time I accidentally open the web browsing function (placement is directly above Send button), this poorly placed key has caused undue amounts of frustration.
6. Hot Commodity: A surprising amount of people I talked to had their Razr V3s stolen. Since the phone is expensive and considered desirable, some people go to devious lengths to get their hands on it. And, if I’m not allowed to keep it in my pocket, how tough is it to steal?
5. Frailty Issues, Again: Extreme cold (defined by Motorola as 30 degrees Fahrenheit) causes a similar problem to one I explained above—namely, that keys and buttons do not work. Much of the country inhabits terrains where 30 degrees Fahrenheit is a warm winter, not extreme conditions.
4. Reception: Reception can be incredible with the Razr. Or it can be awful. The variance of reception is something I didn’t have to deal with in other phones. And while it’s great to have a crystal clear signal, sometimes any connection will do—as long as it’s stable.
3. Expense: The phone is expensive. Sure you can find deals for $75 or $100 with two-year contract, but that, for a cell phone in this day and age, is still expensive. Especially for one as fragile as the Razr V3. A two-year contract could mean you purchase 2 or 3 phones.
2. New Technology=Bugs: The V3 is still a new phone and many of the problems being bandied about in this article will be fixed by Motorola in the months and years to come. Why waste money on a product whose quality will increase dramatically and cost decrease? Answer: no reason, whatsoever.
1. Music Phones: The Motorola V3 Razr is missing one key ingredient to be the industry’s top of the line phone: mp3 capabilities. With new phones incorporating state-of-the-art cellular technology and mp3 capacity, why settle for purchasing a phone that may be obsolete in the upcoming year? You don’t want to end up being the only person on the morning train commute not listening to iTunes, do you?

Hello Guys,
I need some help please with a modem that I am trying to get working again for a friend. It is a Motorola SB5100 running on Sigma x2. it appears to have gone down last week when vermin chnaged there settings on the cable network and most modems required to be assigned onto BPI Docsis 1.1. My own modem also went down but found it very easily to get back up and running as I am using an SB5101E on Haxorware.
The SB5100 on Sigma modem is currently not able to settle online at all and is constantly rebooting and not settling at all online. It is assigned a working mac address as my friend who lives about 7 miles away from on the other side of Birmingham is using exactly the same mac address as me. Also checked and verified this again my working one.
I have been looking through the forums for commands to enable its BPI and to get it working.
I am not really a technical guy so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction or correct me where I have gone wrong.
This is what I have done so far:-
(All bold commands are the actual commands I have entered)
Modem is plugged direct into PC not through a router and DOES NOT have the cable connection into it. Just power and Lan Cable into PC.
1. Opened Local Network properties, Internet Protocol tcp/ip, Properties, Use the following IP Address: -
IP Address 192.168.100.10
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Default gateway 192.169.100.1
OK and Ok on the previous box.
2. Start button, run and typed in telnet. A black MS-Dos like screen appears. On this screen I have entered o 192.168.100.1 (enter)
Login - Admin
Password – password
3. Access granted and the screen is scrolling constantly as it is scanning. To stop the scan I have typed in cd \cm_hal (enter), then scan_stop (enter). This stops the scan and I am able to see anything that i type in next.
4. Now to verify that BPI is off completely I have typed in cd /n/d (enter), enable bpi false (enter), write (enter). Here the modem responds sayign that bpi is disabled.
5. I have now unplugged the modem waited 10 seconds and plugged in back in. Still not with the cable line into it so that the modem is now rebooting. Now I have gone through steps 2 and 3 above in order to get connected to the modem again.
6. Now from the looking at the forums I have here tried 3 different commands here in order to turn on BPI in different ways. None of them however have worked and after each set of commands i have unplugged the power from the modem for 10 seconds and then plugged in the Cable Line and also the power so that the modem boots up with a connection on it. The commands I have tried are:
6A – cd /n/d (enter), enable bpi true (enter), write (enter). This is supposed to turn BPI on.
6B – cd /n/d (enter), enable bpi false (enter), bpi_version 0 (enter), enable bpi true (enter), write (enter). This is supposed to enable BPI only and disable BPI+.
6C – cd /n/d (enter), enable bpi false (enter), bpi_version 1 (enter), enable bpi true (enter), write (enter). This is suuposed to enable BPI+.
None of the commands above work at all. They all come up saying the BPI is enabled to whatever spec they should be but it does not allow me to go online. The modem continues to reboot. Only one of the settings acutuall locks the POWER, RECEIEVE and SEND LEDS. But it is leaving the ONLINE led flashing constantly. Only in this mode the modem is not resetting and the above leds are locked continuously apart from the online LED.
I have contacted the person I have had this modem from and explained the problem. He tells me something that I am needing a nonvol dump. Not sure what this is or what to do at all please. If i cant get this modem working at all then I have told my friend to just spend some money and buy a new modem like mine, preferably a SB5101E with haxorware on it. But firstly just seeing if there is a way that I can get this one to work.
If anyone can help with this please I would be most grateful. I am sorry this post is a little long but wanted to detail all i have done so far as i am at the end of my tether with it. .
Thanks guys. Much appreciated.
Cheers
Jay-J

After a six-year hiatus, Sigma Nu Fraternity will reinstitute its Theta Sigma Chapter on the Missouri State campus this semester.
“We have an extremely strong alumni-support system in the greater Springfield area,” said Josh Green, expansion and recruitment consultant. “They have worked with the university and our office to re-colonize Missouri State.”
Sigma Nu's board of directors revoked the chapter's charter in 2004 for straying from core values, Green said. He was unable to go into further detail about the charter.
Sigma Nu's core values are love, truth and honor, and it will be returning to pursue its vision of “Excelling With Honor,” Green said.
“The vision is to exemplify that by being better people and excelling in life through being honorable,” he said. “We want our members to do the right thing not because it's easy, but because it's right.”
Sigma Nu has started a broad recruitment base with advertisements on Facebook. Green said he will do on-site recruitment for the colony from the first week of January to the second week of February.
The remainder of the semester will be dedicated to colony training. During that time, officers will be elected and a sustainable infrastructure will be built, he said.
According to the news release, Sigma Nu was founded in 1869 at the Virginia Military Institute.
The Theta Sigma Chapter at Missouri State was founded in 1972 and remained until 2004.
Interested students should contact Green at (540) 460-1515.
- Lens equipped with Sigma’s unique OS (Optical Stabilizer) technology
- Photo accessory’s four (4) SLD elements and three (3) aspherical lenses provide high-image quality throughout the entire zoom range
- Lens fits Canon digital SLR cameras
- Minimum focusing distance of 45 cm/17.7 inches and a maximum magnification of 1:3.4 makes it ideal for close-up photography
- Super multi-layer coating reduces flare and ghosting
