PESO: Foundations
My wife and daughter went to a play last week so I spent a little time having a walk around the central city. Before the earthquakes this was the city's tallest building. Now it's just another derelict site. http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/1063/#peso I bought my lunch from a ground-floor bakery in this building on the day of the 2011 quake... I was walking back to the office when it hit.

Re: What do you think about the future of Pentax "flagship" APS-C-camera line?
Lads, I suspect you might be talking about two different shags. As I've written in my earlier response: I knew a dance called "shag" (aka Collegiate Shag, which is different from Carolina Shag). Based on the location, background and the music mentioned, I suspect Larry is talking about the former (which is a bit more upbeat and somewhere between popular in Europe Boogie-Woogie and Charleston of 30's-40's and is usually danced to fast swing jazz music), while John is talking about the latter, which is closer to West Coast Swing (looks very much like a fast West Coast) and is danced to more pop/rock-n-roll/... -sounding music. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collegiate_shag https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTnxCBfOcNU https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolina_shag https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l5pczCZw04 BTW, there is also St.Louis Shag that I had not seen before, which is the closest of all shags to Charleston: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JHQSCt1Zbk If I didn't know about it being St.Louis Shag, I would've called it Charleston.

RE: What do you think about the future of Pentax "flagship" APS-C-camera line?
The e-passport system works most of the time, but it's not infallible, as my wife found out in Europe this year. It's also a bit of a nuisance to have to take off your glasses, cap/hat, etc. when using it. Why authorities insist on having passport photos without glasses for people who wear them all the time is beyond me.

I had a client for whom I wrote a training section management program, part of the output of which was joining instructions for the trainees. Whenever there was an error or issue with the detail, the whole lot would be reprinted and the waste thrown in a bin, which I collected from time to time..

I think that rather depends on where you are. I recently had to renew my (British) passport. Not only was I able to submit my photograph as a digital image - the passport itself also contains an encoded form of the image, readable electronically. And apparently at some UK airports I could just walk up with the passport in hand, place it on the desk, and look into a camera. My digital image from the camera would be checked against the biometric data encoded in the pasport, and if everything checked out I would be able to proceed through the gate. I'm sure there would be somebody present to supervise things, but the whole verification process would be done digitally. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: What do you think about the future of Pentax "flagship" APS-C-camera line?
In my experience, consumer computing technologies gave boost to higher paper consumption, including very frequently senseless paper waste. In the era of typewriters, for a few errors, people would use a white-out, and only occasionally would reprint the entire page. With computers, people thoughtlessly reprint the entire 10-20 page-long because of a minor typo on page 19. ... and then once more, and then again. But often, the higher paper consumption does help productivity. Guilty as charged: while preparing grant proposals or publications, or reviewing those of others, - most of the time I do that on paper. It's just much easier to see things, and you can have many pages in view (if you have a large table or couch). So, I was very surprised to hear about the paper being the reason for the office-product companies' financial problems.

Re: Tripods
Larry, Next time you should loose (and then recover) something with a higher price tag, e.g. *-lens, diamonds, etc. so that you'd save much more. That way you could afford buying the newest 645* camera. :) Igor Re: Tripods Larry Colen Wed, 14 Nov 2018 22:20:02 -0800 wrote: ... In an amazing bit of good luck, mine was turned in to lost and found and has been recovered. Yay!
