It's a different world! Temples and monasteries are an integral part of life in Myanmar.

 

Many of the monks at the Mahagandayon Monastery were articulate in English, and outspoken about their country’s history and politics.

Words cannot explain this early October evening, the clouds had cleared and we walked up to the Tennison Monument on the Isle of Wight. The sky every few minutes kept changing colour. It was a very moving experience and so beautiful. Words cannot explain this early October evening, the clouds had cleared and we walked up to the Tennison Monument on the Isle of Wight. The sky every few minutes kept changing colour. It was a very moving experience and so beautiful, it was like someone was painting the skies.

...How your semi-pro DSLR has a plastic hot shoe when entry level

Nikon and Canon cameras have metal hot shoes...

 

The head on my tripod was loose and the camera suddenly shifted. My flash was mounted on it at the time. the shift caused the flash to rip the plastic guides off the hot shoe.

 

I was okay with it because accidents do happen. I thought I might be able to glue the pieces back on. Hopefully the glue would be strong enough to hold my flash on when I use it.

 

I was at lunch with my friend after doing a bit of shooting. While the cameras were sitting on the table, I noticed that his D40 has a metal hot shoe. It really upset me to know that damage could have been avoided if Sony were using metal hot shoes.

 

I've contacted their consumer relations. They advised me to send the camera into their repair center for an estimate. I told them that I will not pay to have this repaired; that my goal was to get this photo to a Sony Alpha product manager so they can see the difference in build between their semi-pro camera and an entry level model from their competition.

 

They insisted I send it in. I told them that I will not send it in before this issue is seen by a Sony Alpha product manager. It doesn't help anything to simply fix a camera when its construction needs to be evaluated.

On the morning of Tuesday, October 21, 2008 an event with Barack Obama was hosted at the Lake Worth Campus of Palm Beach Community College in the Elizabeth W. Erling Gymnasium.

 

Instead of the expected Obama Rally, the stage was set for a round table discussion. When Barack Obama took the stage, he spoke for about 10 minutes, proposing a job tax credit for each new employee hired by American businesses, eliminating capital gains taxes for small businesses, rebuilding the nation's infrastructure, rebuilding a "broke" health-care system, creating a world-class education system and investing in renewable energy. Then Obama explained the bi-partisan panel we were about to witness and introduced the participants... right to left... Governor of Colorado Bill Ritter, CEO of Google Eric Schmidt, Governor of Ohio Ted Strickland, owner of South Florida-based Victoria & Associates Victoria Villalba, former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volker, the Governor of Michigan Jennifer Granholm and last but certainly not least the Governor of New Mexico Bill Richardson.

 

Barack Obama called for five million new jobs to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, help rebuild the country's infrastructure and in the process help to save our planet.

i was skeptical about doing this today. i had pulled apart and tried to rebuild the cube that contained the fingers cube, to be able to use it again. i have more unused ones at home but i forgot to bring them. rebuilding the cube was futile at first because for some reason they didn't fit, and all the corners were gaping holes. solved the problem later on by wrapping the cube with cling film.

 

i was a little short of plaster for this one. the surface was at least three centimeters below the top of the cube, and i was afraid that i wouldn't be able to get my face past the surface of it. this was all i could get in, and the edges of the wooden cube were pressed against my neck and eyebrow. it hurt a little. i think those two holes beyond the facial imprint are holes made by my breathing, a little heavy in effort to keep absolutely still. in retrospect i must learn how to be zen when doing things like these, ignoring my mad throat that is screaming to swallow.

 

i had planned to get part of my cheek, and had vaseline up to the bottom of my ear actually. but this works too. better, probably, because the circular crop of the chin and cheek complements the curves of the lips.

 

no one seemed to notice my head halfway down a cube of plaster. mrs mackay came in and asked a question that i knew the answer to ("where has all my gum tape gone?") but i couldn't move. miss doonar came in to say bye. and then miss buchanan started talking to me while i was waiting for the plaster to set, and asked me a question which i can't remember. in response to my non-response i felt her turn around and she said in disbelief, "is she asleep?!" from here i tried my best to keep from laughing. failed at "oh, right, she's molding her face, we can't talk to her," and quickly lifted up my face from the plaster before the many muscles in my cheek and lips contorted into a grin.

 

i believe this is my coolest mold yet. my sister thinks it's beyond creepy, though.
