      The White Rose Centre is a medium sized shopping centre on the outskirts of Leeds, the smaller equivalent of Sheffields Meadowhall. I think The White Rose Centre is just the right size and has a good mix of shops.

      It's opening times changes for the Christmas period with late night opening but at the moment are as follows:
      Monday 10am - 8pm
      Tuesday 10am - 8pm
      Wednesday 10am - 8pm
      Thursday 10am - 9pm
      Friday 10am - 8pm
      Saturday 9am - 7pm
      Sunday 11am - 5pm

      White Rose is conveniently located on the south side of Leeds close to the motorway network off junction 28 of the M62. The centre's address is the White Rose Shopping Centre, Dewsbury Road, Leeds, LS11 8LU.

      At Christmas they have lovely decorations and a massive Christmas tree, which this year is being turned on by Roxanne Pallet, one of the actresses from Emmerdale. This happens on Monday 9th November at 7pm. Santa is also coming to the White Rose and will be here on 9th November - 23rd December, Monday-Friday: 11am-6pm and Saturday and Sunday: 10am-5pm. Admission is free. While I obviously wouldn't take the children to the White Rose Centre just to see Santa, it is a good idea if you plan to shop there and the kids are becoming irritable (as they often do whilst out shopping!).

      An idea which I like which The White Rose Centre do, is a gift card which you can spend at any of the shops within The White Rose. This is perfect for people who really have no idea what they would like for Christmas or Birthdays as the selection of shops is great. These can be purchased at the Customer Service Centre located between WH Smiths and Argos, but they do charge you £2 to activate one.

      They also have a White Rose Xmas Club, which is free to join and you can open your account with just £1. There is no limit on the amount you can save and when you're ready to redeem your savings they will load it up onto a gift card.

      As I have already mentioned, the choice of shops is excellent and to name just a few there are Argos, Beaverbrook's, The Disney Store, HMV, Debenhams, The Body Shop, Build a Bear Workshop, Monsoon and Next. There are also little stalls in the middle of the mall, and with over 20 to choose from, selling anything from original paintings, stunning jewellery, and beautiful cosmetics there is certainly something for everyone. Last Christmas they had a stall which sold hundreds of different Christmas baubles and they could be personalised however you liked. We had a few made for various aunts, etc, customised 'with love from the Wilsons'. A Perfect little gift.

      As you would expect from any large shopping centre, there is also a large selection of places to eat. The main ones are all situated upstairs, with the usual McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut, but there is a new edition of Nando's which always seems busy. There is also a nice restaurant in Debenhams.

      Overall a lovely shopping centre, with the added bonus of a large Sainsbury's at the end. You can do your food shopping at the same time!

        Plenty of shops, all indoors, easy to get to, lots of food!

        The White Rose Shopping Centre is a great little shopping centre located just to the South of Leeds, not too far from Elland Road. Access from the M62 is good, and they have plenty of parking, along with good public transport connections, so its very easy to get to!

        There are many shops at the White Rose, all within one building, and its open late, so its good to head here for a bit of evening shopping, or when the weather isnt so good. Most big high street shops are at the White Rose, so its a good option!

        The long main part of the White Rose is on the ground floor. This is where most of the shops are, and there are plenty of little stalls dotted inbetween also.
        Shops down here range from everything like Primark, River Island and Top Shop, to places like Sainsburys, the Disney Store and WHSmith. Theres plenty down here, just like in a City Centre, and you could walk from Game to Currys to Ann Summers, all in the same building!
        The stalls dotted about inbetween sell a variety of everything and anything. Belt buckles, sweets, shampoo, fancy dress.

        Upstairs is the main food hall with plenty of places to eat. Nandos, McDonalds, KFC, Gravelys, and loads more. Theres loads of seating, so thats never an issue! There are a few more shops up at this level too - Travel Agents, Sports shops etc.
        Toilets and Baby Changing are all ok too.

        I remember driving past the White Rose Centre a long time ago and not really having any interest of going in. I went last year for the first time and was actually quite impressed, and have been back many times since!
        It does get very busy at weekends, but that happens at all shopping centres!
        Its a great place to go if you need something on a n evening or just fance heading out somewhere, as theres plenty to look at and it doesnt close till 8pm on a weekday.

        Im a big fan of places like the Trafford Centre, and the White Rose doesnt really compare in terms of scale or variety, but its definitely a great place and somewhere i recommend to people. Helpful that there is a supermarket in there too!

        A great shopping centre on the outskirts of Leeds.

        The White Rose Shopping Centre is just south if Leeds off the M62 so it is very easy to find and get to. There is loads of parking available and it is easy to very easy to reach via bus.

        There are around 100 shops inside and it is all under one roof so it is very convenient especially during the cold wet winter months! It is open from 10am till 8pm during the week so it is a great place to do the Christmas shopping after work! On a Saturday it's open from 9am till 7pm and on a Sunday the opening hours are 11am till 5pm.

        Inside, the Shopping Centre is very bright and open and it is very easy to navigate. There is a big upstairs food-court with plenty of seating and done great places to eat including Pizza Hut Express, KFC, Gravelys Fish & Chips, Bagel Nash, Subway, McDonalds etc.

        White Rose Shopping Centre is full of all the shops that you'd expect to find in a Shopping Centre, some of the stores are huge but I found some of the shops to be a lot smaller than i'd expect to find, the same stores are a lot bigger in Leeds City Centre.

        Some shops I remember seeing:
        River Island,
        Millies Cookies,
        Clinton Cards,
        Miss Selfridge,
        Top Shop,
        Disney Store,
        and many many more!

        Between all the stores there are lots of smaller stands selling all sorts of things, from Candles to Pick'n'Mix, Hair Products to Belts.

        Whilst in the Shopping Centre I saw a lot of staff keeping the place clean & tidy and there were plenty of bins around. I really hate it when you have some rubbish and can never find a bin! Not a problem in this Shopping Centre.

        If you are looking for somewhere to quick and convenient to do all your Christmas shopping then I can really recommend the White Rose Shopping Centre. It may not be as big as places like Meadow Hall but it is still crammed full of all your favourite high-street stores.

        A must try shopping experience

        What is it and where is it?

        White Rose is a shopping centre on the south side of Leeds. It's on the A653 Ringroad and accessible from the M621 (Junction 1) or the M62 (Junction 28).

        The address is: White Rose Shopping Centre, Dewsbury Road, Leeds, LS11 8LU.

        It's similar to Meadow Hall (Sheffield) or Trafford Centre (Manchester) but on a smaller scale.

        Parking at White Rose is free. There are 4,500 car parking spaces located across 6 customer car parks. Each car park is linked to a different shop entrance. The car parks are well maintained and I feel happy leaving my car whilst I shop. Even at busy times I have always been able to find a space without too much hassle. Christmas is slightly different and it feels like the whole of Yorkshire descends on mass to the centre. Heed my advice and get there when the centre opens to avoid car park rage!

        Disabled spaces are available in each car park for those visitors with a Blue Badge parking permit.

        A Sainsbury's petrol station is on site for those in need of re-fuelling before continuing the journey.

        Public Transport Links

        White Rose has it's own on-site bus station and is well served by buses from Leeds city centre and surrounding towns (Morley, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield).

        The bus station is covered by CCTV and on-site securty.

        Opening Hours

        Monday 10:00 am - 08:00 pm
        Tuesday 10:00 am - 08:00 pm
        Wednesday 10:00 am - 08:00 pm
        Thursday 10:00 am - 09:00 pm
        Friday 10:00 am - 08:00 pm
        Saturday 09:00 am - 07:00 pm
        Sunday 11:00 am - 05:00 pm

        Bank Holidays 10:00 am - 06:00 pm

        White Rose is split over two levels. The lower level is where all the shops are and they run in a straight line from one end (Sainsburys) to the other (Debanhams). Scattered between the shops are boutique carts selling various items such as photo's, handbags, unique jewellery and whatever the latest JML craze happens to be! At each end there are also coffee bars, allowing you to rest your weary feet, relax and watch the other shoppers mill around.

        The upper level is the food court area and in my opinion there's a good and varied selection including: Nando's, McDonalds, Ainsley's, Bagel Nash, Subway, KFC, and a Fish and Chip place. There is generous seating, although at obvious times (lunch and tea) you may find yourself wondering aimlessly for an empty table.
        Also on the upper level are a couple of travel agents (Co-Op and Going Places), Supercuts hair salon (no appointment necessary), Sports Direct, Orange, and a Juice bar.

        The Centre isn't huge and it is virtually impossible to get lost. However information stands and free maps are available to help you get your bearings.

        The Shops

        White Rose offers a good selection of shops, particularly for women's fashion. Several major retailers have outlets including Marks and Spencers, BHS, Next, River Island, Primark, New Look, Monsoon, Dorothy Perkins, Warehouse, Ann Summers and Zara. Men are also well catered for in the fashion stakes with shops such as Burtons, Topman, Officers Club, Suits You and Envy.

        For those with a shoe fetish White Rose offers Barrets, Clarks, Faith, Garage shoes, and Schuh.

        General shops include Sainsburys, Argos, Debanhams and WH Smiths. For those looking for beauty shops there is Boots, Superdrug and the Body Shop. White Rose has an excellent choice of Jewellers (H Samuels, Beaver Brooks, Goldsmiths) and is great when hunting for a special present for someone.

        Choice of electrical shops is limited to Currys however on a similar theme there is HMV and Game, and also numerous mobile phone outlets. For those with children there is Adams, Pumpkin Patch, Early Learning Centre, Build a Bear, and Disney Store.

        With all these shops available a shopper needs access to cash. Halifax and Yorkshire Bank are available with cash machines, with one located at either end of the centre.

        Disabled access is good. Above WH Smith is a mobility centre where it is possible to hire scooters. Two glass lifts link the lower and upper levels, and lifts are also available in some of the stores (MandS, Primark, BHS). Otherwise there are two main escalators or stair access between the 2-levels.

        There are three separate toilet areas spread out across the centre which have baby changing facilities and vending machines where you can get nappies if you need them. I have always found the toilets to be clean and well maintained.

        My Opinion

        I love White Rose. It's 10 minutes from where I live and I often find myself moseying around it on my days off when its cold or rainy. White Rose is small in comparison to other shopping centres, but for me this is a huge benefit. Instead of having to trawl around an endless maze of shops for hours and hours trying to find what I want I can be in and out of White Rose in 30 minutes if I need to be. The layout is logical and it has all the key shops and is especially good for clothes stores. It's perfect during sale season and I never feel as stressed as I do when I sale shop in bigger centres or cities.

        It is bright and airy and is always well maintained and up-to-date in terms of décor. The coffee bars are a welcome treat at the start or end of a shopping trip, as well as been a good for socialising with family or friends and comparing purchases.

        I love the fact that I can shop, drop in for a hair cut, and do my weekly shop in one location. The free parking is also a huge plus. Overall White Rose is the perfect shopping venue, especially for those who like shopping but don't like it to take up a full day!

          great shopping centre with everything you could need under one roof

          The White rose Shopping centre is in the south Leeds in a convenient location just off the M62. Its a great shopping centre and a place to go where everything you could need is all under one roof. It has 3 entrances not counting shop exits and has a wide range of shops some of them are

          sainsburys, boots, river island, next,argos, clinton cards, miss selfridge, new look, debenhams and many more. They have a wide range of selection and its a pleasant atmosphere to shop in.

          It can get extremely busy especially on bank holidays and weekends which is usually when i tend to avoid unless i need to go.

          e.g. McDonalds, KFC, spud u like, Bhs cafe and a couple more. It On the upper floor ther is a food mall with a range of food places has a large seating area to eat however pretty much all the time it is hard to get a table.

          They have excellent baby changing facilities with quite a few changing mats so you dont have to que. They also have a breastfeeding or bottle feeding room if you want to go somewhere you wont be disturbed. It also has great toilet facilities including disabled and theres plenty of them.

          I would definately recommend the white rose shopping centre the shops are all quite spacious and reasonalby priced and there are a number of stalls in the middle of the walkway.

          Great shopping centre

            A great place to shop with everything you need all under one roof

            The White Rose Shopping Cente is just on the outskirts of Leeds, and near the m62.
            It has just about everything you need all under one roof.
            Downstairs is a wide range of shops, it includes a large Sainsburys, Argos, Next, Boots, Primark, Wh Smiths, all the high street shops like that etc. The only shop it doesnt have which I ppersonally think it needs is a Mothercare, there is no Mothercare in Leeds centre either, so it would do well here. There is also some smaller shops here too.
            Upstairs is mainly the food area but this area does get very very busy at dinner times, so expect a long queue and to wait for a table. You can choose from Mds, Pizza hut, Currys, potatoes, or just a sandwich.
            There is loads of car parking spaces aswell.
            The White Rose is a lovely clean place to shop for whatever you need.

              I always shop here.

              The White rose centre is an indoor shopping centre located on the south side of Leeds, conveniently close to the M62, off junction 28. The centre's address is White Rose Shopping Centre, Dewsbury Road, Leeds, LS11 8LU.
              The reason I prefer shopping here rather than Leeds city centre is that all the shops that I like to shop in are in one place, rather than being miles away from each other. Plus if the weather is bad you are indoors so are protected from this.
              The shopping centre is open Monday, Wednesday & Friday 10am till 8pm, Thursday 10am till 9pm, Saturday 9am till 7pm and Sunday 11am till 5pm. So there are plenty of opportunities to do your shopping.
              There are far too many stores there for me to list, however, I will list a few. They do have a large Sainsburys store, a boots, WHSmith and Argos. They have numerous women's clothes stores including Next, River Island, Top shop, Dorothy Perkins and Debenhams. They have a few shoe shops including, Faith, Schuh and Barrats but you find that a lot of the clothes shops sell shoes nowadays. They have lots of mens clothing shops including, Bank, Republic and Jack Jones. In fact they pretty much have everything you could really be looking for. Their website is www.white-rose.co.uk, so if you ever want to check what stores they have before you travel there then look on here as it lists every shop they have.
              You will also find that they have stall set up throughout the whole of the store, these include things like children's portraits, children's toys, t-shirt printing, jewellery, sweets to name but a few.

              The store is very child friendly and the customer service desk provides little push along cars that you can take to push your children around the centre in.

              There is a large food court on the top floor of the store which includes fast food places such as McDonalds, KFC, pizza hut, which is ideal to have something to eat after you have worn yourself out shopping.

              The only complaint I would have about the centre is that is gets very, very busy and you can sometimes find yourself driving around for ages to find a parking spot, even though there are lots of car parks. Whenever I am going I always try to get there as soon as it opens and get in and out as soon as possible, I find that after an hour of it opening the store becomes manic, especially on a Saturday. Needles to say that around Christmas time i avoid this place like the plague!!

                A few years ago, the White Rose shopping centre was built on the outskirts of Leeds containing a large Sainsbury's Savacentre and lots of other stores. The first thing you think of when you go there is "Whoa. This place is shiny. And expensive looking." and indeed it is. Obviously a lot of thought has gone into the design of this building, which contains a huge dome in the food court area and lots of little domes elsewhere. You'll also be surprised at how well maintained the building is, the floors are clean, and the bins are emptied often. But the important thing - what about the stores? Well, you'll be happy to hear that there's a decent range of stores available too. WH Smith, Dixons, Woolworths, Electronics Boutique, The Link, everything from clothes to toys can be found here. The food court is on an upper level under a very pretty dome with such restaurants as KFC and McDonalds. It also has smoking and non-smoking areas instead of banning smoking outright, which is a good thing. The only problem I can spot with this shopping centre is that it is slightly small compared to the competition, such as Wakefield's Ridings Centre and Sheffield's Meadowhall. But if you're in the area, drop in, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Helpful Information: What is a Serial?
The word "serial" in warez context means a unique number which identifies the license of the software as being valid. All retail software uses a serial number or key of some form, and the installation often requires the user to enter a valid serial number to proceed. A serial can also be referred to as a "CD Key". When you search for "norton 360 activation serial" for example, you may find the word "serial" amongst the results. This usually means your warez download includes a serial number.

Milwaukee WI USA

Challenge #4 in the The Arts series. Hosted by Steven Blackwood.
Challenge has finished
OK, if people can have challenges of their home towns or favorite city, so can I. Milwaukee, often derisively called a suburb of Chicago, has itself many interesting and unique features. Your job is to find photographically interesting features of Milwaukee. You are on your honor but be prepared to be challenged to say exactly where your photo was taken. The pictures must be from within the city limits of Milwaukee: no suburbs allowed! While the downtown area has many good angles, also try to find other points of interest.

Poll: Tamron 17-50 QC
Feb 14, 2007

This is a non-scientific poll. Please reply in the subject line with something like "0 Bad, 1 Good" if you got a good copy on the first try, or "3 Bad, 0 Good" if you tried three copes and they were all bad. "Bad" here should not refer to known lens features such as noisy autofocus or soft corners at f2.8 and 17mm. This is a poll about quality control only. A bad copy would include front focusing, poor focus or sharpness with distant subjects, asymmetric softness, etc.

Please do not respond if you have never tried this lens. I am creating this poll since a couple people have recently suggested that this lens is possible the most QC plagued lens around, which is not my impression by reading these boards.

Sony A77 disappointing sensor vs 12 MP Sony a700.
Oct 29, 2011

This thread is primarily meant for a700 users. It shows what differences to expect in images at high iso vs. the a77.

I have written about and showed images of the Sony A77’s disappointing results at high iso compared to many other cameras. I feel that a 3-4 micron pixel (size of bacteria, smaller than red blood cells) is just too small to gather enough light to produce good effects in low light. At iso 100 it is fine.

Below, I show an iso 3200 image from the a77 against a Sony a700 @ iso 6400 image.

I feel the images from the A77 are deficient in detail at elevated isos in comparison to cameras that have 3-12 million fewer pixels. Dpreview in their just out full official review of the a77 (at this site) feels the same way - see their conclusions re: image quality where they use the term “Mushy JPEG Rendering”.

The demon is noise at high iso. That is generated by the required enormous amounts of amplification needed because tiny pixels can’t gather much light. The same happens when listening to the radio with a small antenna – NOISE!

It is possible to electronically process images and trade fine detail for less noise by averaging contiguous pixels. You can do that easily in Photoshop. In the past a 10/12 MP camera would not get heavily into that trade off. But the a77 starts with 24MP and so there is some leeway to trade noise for detail at high iso. But has Sony gone too far in that trade off - trying to make the reported noise values for the a77, as tested by independent testing sites, look better than it should, but detail is trounced.

There are 2 100% crops below: one from my Sony a700 at iso 6400 taken with a Sigma 18-200 @ 200mm F6.3 - wide opened where its performance is lowest. The a77’s image is at iso 3200 - twice the light of the a700 image.

I downsized both full images to 600 pixels highlighting the areas to be shown at a 100%. The 100% crops are undisturbed.

Each of us has different wants and needs for a camera. My point here is to demonstrate to a700 owners how much and what the difference looks like on your computer as well as on your a700 LCD. I will restrict my opinions here only to detail and noise at high iso.

I know these images are of different scenes and this is not a purely scientific test, but I think you can easily see what to expect from each camera. I tried to use crops representing about 1/6 of the diameter of each full image. That is the size displayed on the LCD when you push the enlarge function once in the a700. This is not pixel peeping. The image in the a77 is inscribed on approximately twice as many pixels as on the a700 and with twice the light and therefore should have dramatically more detail. Both are handheld, without flash. Please click on each image below.

The a77 100% crop below shows severe obliteration of fine detail in the lady’s hair. Strands are matted together, look smudged and are almost unrecognizable. Large areas of fine detail are replaced with a large uniform patches of color. That is typical of small pixels, on small real estate at high iso. Please click but don't gasp.

On the other hand the different scene from the 12MP, APS, a700 shows terrible noise but there is retention of fine detail as the bar code stripes and numbers are clearly recognized and without linear distortions in spite of the fact that the a700 image is taken in half the light. From viewing many other a77 images at iso 1600 to 6400, I feel confident that none of the detail or numbers resolved by the a700 at iso 6400 would be understandable in the a77 even at iso 1600.

To prove that, here is a comparative side by side image by the A77 at iso 1600 vs. 100. The iso 1600 image shows the lettering at the top of the card is unrecognizable. As always please click the image to get the comparison right.

At iso 100 the lettering is understandable. But the a700 image above shows even smaller lettering clearly at iso 6400. (Also note the linear distortion with the a77 at 1600 vs. 100).

If half the megapixels (12 vs. 24) can resolve more detail at high iso and DXO states that anything above 8MP is unneeded, why are we pushing for 24 MP in the first place?

DXO states that 8 MP on an APS framework will produce a retina sharp 8x10 print at 14 inch viewing distance. The limitation is the human eye and not the print. A 24 MP sensor should provide more detail than a 12 as twice as many pixels are assigned to the image. In reality, less or the same image detail will be seen at EVERY iso for the a77 on an 8 x 10 print. The reason is that the extra 12 MP of the a77will not make that print sharper at 14 inch viewing distance at any iso, but high iso favors detail in the 12 MP image. Why are we going backwards to 24 MP?

Some would say “What about a mural” – no one views a 10 foot mural at 14 inch distance. It would still appear perfectly sharp. For instance the best HDTV image 1920 by 1080 is a 2 MP image but appears tack sharp at 6 feet away.

The a700 uses old processing routines. The same sensor with newer routines would retain that detail with less noise. My preference is to keep my A700. I can tolerate noise much better than loss of detail. And I can do noise reduction in post processing to the level and fashion that I want.

I can wait for an upcoming full frame 18 to 32 MP camera. Then we will have the best of everything – resolution, detail, low distortion, saturation, noise and the narrow depth of field of full frame. Apparently Canon agrees - EOS 1D X their 18 MP upcoming flagship camera.

One last photo (a77, v1.02, iso 1,000, full daylight). The distortions here can be seen on an 8 x 10 print. If that is OK the a77 is for you.

5D Mark III to replace 7D or 5D Mark II and keep the 7D?

5D Mark III to replace 7D or 5D Mark II and keep the 7D?
Mar 19, 2012

I until a couple of weeks ago I was set on getting new or 2nd-hand 5D Mark II to complement my 7D which I use for everything at the moment. I particularly enjoy the extra perceived reach with the crop for surf photography (from the beach/rocks) when used with the 100-400L. I was considering the 5D Mark II to use more for my rapidly growing family and friends library of shots and as a backup for wide-angle when down the beach.

But I had a thought the 5D Mark III with it's increased pixels, and presumably greater ability to resolve them, that although I'd lose the 1.6 reach factor of the crop, would I stand to gain a 1.24x resolution factor with Mark III

(18MP vs. 22.3MP), cancelling out some of the loss of reach? With the better ability to resolve the detail, in theory, the telephoto shots should be pretty much on par - or am I wrong? I'm not a pro and don't make money from my shots (would like to!) but am a keen enthusiast with an anal retentiveness for detail.

I'm figuring that all I'd lose by ditching the 7D to part fund the 5D Mark III would be that minor loss of reach, a pop-up flash which I rarely use and just over 1 frame per second (a Canon rep told me last week that the 5D Mark III gets 6.7 FPS with the BG-E11 grip!).

Although the 15-85 EF-S is an EXCELLENT lens, I have a good selection FF lenses (24-70L, 100-400L, 50 f1.4, about to buy 2nd hand 16-35L II), so again, I have the range of my 7D gear covered. PLus I had a go with the Mark II the other day and it feels just like the 7D, so at least I'm used to it!

Is it s a valid upgrade / replacement or are two bodies better than one? Opinion...

20x30 of football player
In reply to LaszloBencze, Jun 16, 2013

A customer bought a 20x30 print of his son playing football. I cropped the photo per his request, and IIRC, the final DPI was about 76. Yet even upon examining the print up-close, you could see the individual breather-holes in his jersey, etc. Of course some of this could have been the Lab's Uprezzing algorithm, but the photo was crystal clear.

Oh, and this was with my 6MP (3000x2000) Nikon D70

no they apparently dont have the knowhow.

I thought the same about Panasonic ever having IBIS.

implementing one particular technology, there is another about changing the companies ideals about a whole different genre (video) and how important they feel that is.

Three mounts. You forgot the 645D.

Four mounts. You forgot the GXR M-mount.

Ricoh I believe is the only company to cover four mount categories - mirrorless, rangefinder, SLR and medium format. Adding a whole new larger-sensor mirrorless mount will bring it up to five in total, so if one has to go by the wayside to avoid spreading their resources too thinly, the obvious choice would be the M-mount.

But maybe they won't have to make that choice. One advantage of the M-mount is it has a plethora of top quality rangefinder lenses already available for it, yet is actually patent-free so one idea which I've seen mentioned many times is Ricoh simply adding their own proprietary AF system to it so all those rangefinder lenses will still work natively on it as per the GXR-M, plus then also any new mirrorless AF lenses they develop for it.

A77ii; Well I'm disappointed

Re: A77ii; Well I'm disappointed
In reply to 1DanC, May 6, 2014

Hard to judge all things about this update without some behind the scenes information. This camera looks like I expected the Fall of 2013 update to look like, new hot shoe, more buffer, new processor, similar body style. Why is it 6-months late, could be lots of reasons:

Sony imaging division going through significant restructuring and the management wanting to wait on upgrades of A-mount until the dust settled and they knew they were going to the Alpha system with E and A mount bodies. They probably knew E mount was continuing so slowed R&D and prototype production for those models down less, so the A7, A7r, A3000, A5000, A6000, A7s have made it out the door, but on the A-mount side the A58 and A99 got out before the turmoil and now the new A-mount bodies are starting to reappear, A77II being the third. The Sony roadmap, seen on SAR, showed the new A77II body, the dropping of the A65 and continuation of the A58 and A99, but it ends in August leaving open more fall releases.

The new auto-focus system was a firm requirement for the A77II and it just took longer to develop than anticipated.

The new focus system was going to be the A6000 system, so they delayed waiting for it to finish development and were not able to get it working right with A-mount lenses so switched to the new PDF system, probably developed in parallel instead.

Sony did not have enough R&D to develop both the A-mount and E-mount lines so the majority of money went to E-mount and thus new A-mount bodies will be slow to appear.

etc. etc.

I personally think the A77II upgrade was a good one but I will wait for the future price drops as none of the big new features make much difference to how I shoot. As far as the next major game changing upgrade goes, I have no idea. I think Apple has been very good at not doing what the customer thinks is the next big thing but what they think is the next big thing. Sony did this with the SLT, I started reading this site after the SLT was announced but I really expect there were very few post stating how much they wanted a SLT system, the same probably goes for m4/3. How many said take the 4/3 system and drop the reflex mirror?

Hello everyone, I'm back today after being gone for a little while. I had to give myself a break after doing all those lessons. I thought my eyeballs where going to fall out of my head. Anyways, I will fill requests with the tuts I submit today and the first lesson is on "how to draw K.K. Slider", step by step. K. K. Slider is from the Animal Crossing series and from what I can tell he is a white dog that plays a guitar. K.K has been in all the Animal Crossing games and his main role is to play music for the user. He is seen in the playing the guitar every Saturday from 8:00pm to 12 midnight in the players town. Drawing K.K is going to be lots of fun because how often do you get to draw a dog playing guitar. Thanks guys and enjoy the tut. I will be back in a few so stay tuned in.

Did you guys like the chibi flower I submitted for you all? Well, I have a super cute surprise for you all. I received a request to do a lesson on a baby. I know what your saying “a baby? there is already a lesson on two babies!”. And my response to that is your right! But, I am not going to do a tutorial on just any old baby, I will be showing you “how to draw an anime baby” step by step. What a smart idea, to do a tutorial on an anime baby. I mean no one has this lesson, at least from my searches there isn’t. I had so much fun with this tutorial. I wanted this anime baby to come out so cute and so innocent looking. I think I convey his innocence with his eyes, and his frailness with his body position. His big black eyes and his cute chubby cheeks makes me want to rip this infant out of the monitor and pinch the crap out of his face. I think that baby boys sometimes look cuter than baby girls. If the baby has blue eyes, blond hair and a frown? I am a sucker for cuteness! I loved when my baby sister was just a baby. She was so quiet and she made these cute little faces that made me say “auuuuuhhhhhhhhhha”. Anyways that was then and this is now. She is a little chatter box now. All she does is talk, scream, yell, cry, take, mine, no, shut up, and on and on and on. I have to tell my mother to get her out of my room sometimes because she can be so loud. But, all in all I love her just the same. Well that is a lot of baby talk, and I think you would rather be working in this tutorial on “how to draw an anime baby” step by step. I will leave you to your solitude while you tackle this lesson. I shall return so stay tuned in. Peace peeps, and happy drawing.

Five Things You Need to Know About American Horror Story: Asylum

Post Thumb:

Five Things You Need to Know About American Horror Story: AsylumIf you’re not a fan of spoilers, then maybe you don’t “need” to know these tidbits about “American Horror Story” Season 2, but the rest of us can’t wait to hear what creator Ryan Murphy said recently about who the new “Rubber Man” is, if we’ll see another Halloween episode, and lots more.

Murphy (@MrRPMurphy) held a Twitter Q&A earlier today, and TV Guide provided the following detailed transcript:

1. Season 2, known as “American Horror Story: Asylum”, really is different: For those who didn’t watch the first season, Murphy says you can start watching now without knowing anything. “It’s a completely new story,” he wrote. He also reiterated there would be no parallels to Season 1. “Not a single thing…except some of the actors.” The returning cast members include Jessica Lange, Zachary Quinto, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, and Lily Rabe with the newbies being Adam Levine, Jenna Dewan, Clea DuVall, James Cromwell, Franka Potente, Mark Consuelos, Lizzie Brochere, Joseph Fiennes, Chloë Sevigny, and Chris Zylka. Also, this season will have 13 episodes, and seven of them are already written.

2. Heroes vs. villains: Though Murphy previously said returning actors would be playing the polar opposite of their characters from Season 1, he teased that Lange’s nun would be a little bit villain and heroine.

3. Haunted Halloween: One way in which Season 2 will be similar is that there will be a Halloween-centric episode early in the run. “The second episode is our amazing Halloween episode,” he wrote. This means “Horror Story” could return on Wednesday, October 24th, if FX wants the episode to actually air on Halloween.

4. The new Rubber Man: If you missed Murphy’s photo of new cast member Levine, one of the new horrorific elements of “Asylum” was introduced. “Bloody Face is this year’s Rubber Man,” Murphy said.

5. A new theme: Last season’s opening credits provided many hints at what would be in store for the season, which is why there will be a new sequence this year. “We are shooting a new title sequence with the same team that did last year’s,” Murphy wrote. “The song may stay…not sure.”

Set at an East Coast asylum for the criminally insane, the upcoming Chapter 2 revolves around Lange’s new character — a nun — and her boss at the institution, played by Cromwell, and is about sanity and tackling real-life horrors.

Irene Lawson Sterling ’69, grew up in Branchville, a rural corner of New Jersey where, she says, “There were more cows than people.” But a course in urban ministry at the Drew Theological School, taught by the late theologian Nelle K. Morton, took Sterling into the streets of Paterson and changed her life forever.

Sterling adopted Paterson as her hometown and never left, spending more than four decades there working for social change while raising a daughter with her husband, Howard Sterling T’91. For the past 20 years, as director of the nonprofit Paterson Education Fund, Sterling has been a tireless advocate for the city’s children. Now 66, she plans to retire this fall, though she has no desire to step away from the city’s civic life. “My husband and I are both very interested in nurturing local institutions,” she says.

Sterling says she plans to return to the arts, something she pursued in her 20s. After she and her husband moved to Paterson in 1969, they started a street theater ministry funded by the United Methodist Church. They also founded a regional children’s theater, and Irene produced and co-wrote plays. She says she might revive a play she wrote years ago called Children of the Mills, or maybe write a children’s book about the Great Falls. And then there’s Danforth Memorial Library and St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, both in need of restoration. “They are wonderful institutions,” Sterling says, “serving some of the poorest folks in this community.”

Sterling actually majored in history at Drew. When Howard, her boyfriend and a theology student, enrolled in Morton’s urban ministry class, Sterling tagged along. She remembers the professor as a trailblazing feminist who challenged churches to become more socially active. “In the urban ministry course, she looked at social change and civil rights and took her students into Paterson,” Sterling says. “It wasn’t a place I knew, but I got hooked. I couldn’t wait to get out of the countryside.”

Sterling joined the Paterson Education Fund soon after the federal government published its 1983 report, “A Nation at Risk,” warning that schools were failing to educate students. By then her daughter was a student in the Paterson system. Today Sarah Laldee, now 36, teaches science at Paterson’s School No. 2.

The state Department of Education took over Paterson’s troubled schools in 1991 and still runs the district, and in the past three years the high school graduation rate has risen to 60 percent from 50 percent, according to Sterling. “The schools are hostage to political forces that are beyond their ability to change,” Sterling says. “No one has come from the state with a solid vision. It’s been churn, churn, churn. But 30 years ago no one expected that every kid would finish high school, never mind go to college. Since then expectations have changed radically. The new expectation is that all kids be highly educated. That’s been a hard shift, but we’ve made it.” —Mary Jo Patterson

With DRJ Fall World 2015 right around the corner, we’ve got education, networking and the future on our minds. In light of this and as part of our goal to highlight the latest news, thoughts, trends and issues in business continuity - we thought it would be useful for you (and us) to hear from some of the speakers at DRJ Fall World 2015. We contacted a few speakers and asked them questions ranging from their thoughts on the value of continuing education, trends in business continuity, and more about their sessions at our September 27-30 conference.

Soaps for Cleaner Hands

Washing your hands after you use the bathroom and perform bathroom-cleaning tasks can go a long way toward protecting your health. Studies have found that hand washing reduces the spread of colds and other respiratory illnesses by 24 percent and stomach-related infections by 31 percent. Having hand soap available on the sink in every bathroom of your home can help your family stick to a healthy hand-washing routine. There are many different options available to meet your needs. Antibacterial formulas contain ingredients that kill many of the bacteria that cause illnesses, while moisturizing formulas cleanse the hands without over drying the skin. You can find cream and gel hand soaps in many different fragrances, and there are even natural products available for those who prefer green skin care products.

Products for the Tub and Shower

Many people do not realize that the bathtub is home to more germs than many other places in a home. Near the drain of a tub, there is an average of 134,630 bacterial cells per square inch, making it important that you take steps to keep your tubs and showers clean. You can find many types of surface cleaners that help to eliminate germs and make showers sparkling clean. There are also products designed specifically for removing mold and dirt from the grout between tiles.

Solutions for Cleaning Your Toilet

Studies show that the toilet is the dirtiest place in any home with an average of 3.2 million bacterial cells residing in every square inch of the bowl. As a result, you simply can't underestimate the importance of keeping your toilet clean. You can purchase bowl cleaners for scrubbing out the inside of your toilet with a toilet brush. Some liquid cleaners also help to remove rust and lime and can be used to address stains. Drop-in cleaners that slowly release cleaning agents into the bowl over time are also available for promoting a cleaner toilet between scrubs.

Other Bathroom Cleaning Products

There are many types of cleaning products that could be beneficial for your bathroom cleaning routine. You can find products designed for cleaning sinks, counter tops and bathroom floors to remove germs and impurities. If water is flowing slowly down the drain in the sink, tub or shower or the toilet is not flushing properly, clog fighting liquid cleaners are available to help remove build-up from the plumbing. You can also purchase multi-purpose bathroom cleansers that can be used on many different surfaces in the bathroom in order to simplify cleaning. Finally, you may wish to purchase bathroom air fresheners to keep the room smelling great.

'The Colbert Report' tips hat to WAG for beer

Segment discussed Big Flats 1901

NEW YORK — "The Colbert Report" on Wednesday hosted a segment “Tip of the Hat; Wag of the Finger” that featured — and poked a little fun at — Walgreens’ private-label beer Big Flats 1901.

The American lager is so named as an homage to the flat boats that traveled rivers delivering goods to early settlers.

Walgreens' 50-cents-per-can beer is brewed by Genesee Brewery, which has been brewing Genesee beer in Rochester, N.Y., since 1878.

Patients with complex therapies struggle to stay adherent

Patients with chronic heart disease are likely to have several doctors and take nearly a dozen medications that are filled in at least two different pharmacies, resulting in many patients struggling to keep their medications straight, according to a study conducted by researchers from Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and CVS Caremark.

Among the potential solutions: Create a “pharmacy home” to coordinate pharmacy care from a single point of contact. Researchers also said there is a need to synchronize medication regimens for patients because “those who make numerous trips to the pharmacy to pick up their medications, or fill prescriptions at different pharmacies, may have difficulty taking their medications as prescribed.”

Researchers found that during a three-month period, “10% of patients filled prescriptions for 23 or more medications ... and 11 or more different drug classes, had prescriptions written by four or more prescribers, filled these prescriptions at two pharmacies and made 11 or more visits to those pharmacies.”

Target holds off sale of credit card business

MINNEAPOLIS — Target announced that it has temporarily suspended its efforts to sell its credit card receivables portfolio. The company said it remains committed to selling the portfolio on appropriate terms, but based on discussions with potential partners the company has determined that it is not in its best interests to finalize a transaction at this time. Later in 2012, the company said it expects to re-engage in discussions with a limited number of potential partners, and expects to be well-positioned to streamline those conversations based on the groundwork established in its 2011 efforts.

Target also announced that it intends to retire the 2008 receivables financing provided by Chase Card Services, a subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase. In 2011, Chase provided Target an option to retire this financing, and this option expires at the end of January. Retiring this financing, prior to its expected payoff in late 2013, will allow Target to market the portfolio when the company resumes partner discussions later in 2012. Target will pay Chase approximately $2.8 billion to retire this financing, along with a make-whole premium that will reduce fourth quarter 2011 earnings per share by approximately 8 cents. Target anticipates it will recoup some or all of the cost of this premium through lower expected interest expense in 2012 and 2013.

“Our desire to sell the portfolio on appropriate terms remains the same today as it was when discussions began, but we believe that now is not the time to finalize a transaction,” Target EVP and CFO Doug Scovanner said. “We believe a pause in discussions until later in 2012, combined with repayment of the Chase Card Services financing, will enable Target to reach an agreement with a high-quality financial partner on acceptable terms.”

In January 2011, Target announced that it intended to actively pursue a sale of its credit card receivables portfolio, and that if an appropriate transaction were to occur it likely would be achieved late in 2011 or early in 2012. The company now believes a transaction could occur in late 2012 or early 2013, about a year later than originally expected.

Cute shoes that can be dressed up or down!
"I purchased these shoes online, and was a little nervous about the color. The black fabric in the picture looks grayish, but thankfully it was a true black. The 3 buttons give them a little flair, and I have gotten many compliments on them! Definitely a shoe that can be dressed up or down depending on the rest of your outfit."

I'm hoping mole skin will cushion this area well enough, but will first visit my local DSW to see if I can find a more comfy flat with similar construction and design."

Anyway, I originally wanted the brown ones but at the last second chose the black ones, and they are so adorable. I have gotten so very many compliments on these boots. I know they aren't like amazing quality or real leather, which is fine, they are more novelty cutsie kind of look - if you want like real leather boots obviously this isn't the boot but if you're looking for a cute boot to spice up the wardrobe this is def a good idea."

Darrell Duckworth Thompson Heirs

Postby Landman52 » Wed Jan 29, 2014 6:58 pm

I am trying to contact anyone who may have known Mr. Darrell Duckworth Thompson, and avid duck hunter from northern California. I have spoken to several of this old partners from the Pintail Duck Club in Yolo County, but they have lost track of him over the years.

Please email Saradland@sbcglobal.net if you happen to have known Darrell. It would be greatly appreciated.
