OT - arrested for appalling crime of dancing in public
What's more offensive than drinking sugary soda in NYC? Dancing gleefully while you wait for a train. http://now.msn.com/couple-arrested-for-appalling-crime-of-dancing-in-public I suspect that the key ingredient for the arrest was the camera... ;-) Actually, that's written in the NY Post article: We brought out the camera, and that.s when they called backup.

RE: Travelling to South Africa ..
Quoting Anand DHUPKAR anand_dhupkar at yahoo.com: Folks - need some input. I am frequent visitor but infrequent poster on pdml. Looks like I am likely to travel to Johannesburg, South Africa, for work - in a week or so. Curious - any safety concerns that I need to be aware of ? I've never been to South Africa so I don't have pe4sonal experience, but the Australian Government issues 'Travel Advisories' for visitors to many countries. The advice for South Africa might help, especially the 'Safety and Security' tab. http://www.smartraveller.gov.au/zw-cgi/view/Advice/South_Africa Other governments probably issue similar advisories. US Department of State also posts those: http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_1008.html In addition to those advisories, you may want to check if any immunization is needed. E.g.: http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/destinations/south-africa.htm I haven't been there myself, so, I don't know anything beyond this. I spent a few weeks in South Africa in 1998, so my experience may be out of date. I stayed there for a few days with a friend who was getting married, and her family who still lived there. The advice they gave to all their guests coming in through Johannesburg airport was not to leave the terminal building except with a pre-booked taxi driver, and not to go with one of the taxi touts who cruised for business. While driving me around JB my friend's father adviced me not to rest my arm on the window - he said I'd have my hand cut off by people trying to get my watch. One of their sons was burgled at gunpoint in his home some months afterwards, and it was generally considered a miracle that he wasn't shot dead, which was apparently the routine at the time. So the impression I got was that Jo'burg was not a good place to wander around naively. We also spent some time in Cape Town which was much more relaxed and one of the world's great cities, although even there there was a double-shooting on the Waterfront one day - we weren't affected by it in any way though. I have no idea what it's like there now, but I wouldn't hesitate to go back - it's a wonderful country. You should get some advice from locals.

Re: Travelling to South Africa ..
As I live on the outskirts of Johannesburg I suppose I should comment. As always in a large city there places to avoid and places that time of day make a big difference. Things to consider are not leaving items in a car in view, drive with windows closed and car locked to prevent smash and grab thefts happening. As with anywhere avoid dark places at night on your own. Transport from the airport I am not familier with as I live 15 minutes away and normally fetch visitors. Most people are either fetched, hire a car or catch the gautrain (high speed rail link) if it goes where you need to be. As you did not say where in Johannesburg you are staying I can't get more specific. Feel free to contact me off list for more info.

B Depends on the state and city. I know in some Connecticut cities there are anti vagrancy laws that require you to have at least a stated amount of money on your person if you can''t supply a local address where you're staying, though there's no requirement that you supply written documentation, and the amount of money required is between two and five dollars, which kind of tells you how old those statutes are. You aren't even required to have your drivers license with you when driving, just that you /have/ one. However federal law does require that aliens have documentation on their person at all times. -- Don't lose heart, they might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a lengthly search. -- 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.

England 2012--Deptford St. Market
Hi Everyone: What a wonderful trip Darrel and I had this past June, and I think the 8 nicest people in all of the UK are, in fact, our UK PDMLers and their family members. As to the trip, Darrel and I flew into Heathrow and stayed in London for 2 days, then took the boat to Greenwich to visit with Bob W. over the weekend. He is a well informed and wonderfully fun tour guide, and at one point I told him he could probably do this for a living. He's that good. We tramped around Greenwich and Deptford and had a blast--taking pictures all the way. Cotty and Alma joined us for dinner on Saturday night and as all of you can well imagine, Cotty's wonderful sense of humor and charm kept us all in good humor and laughter. It was a great night, and I shan't ever forget it! From Greenwich, Darrel and I caught the train to Cambridge and tramped around the colleges, did the tour of King's College Chapel, and just walked and walked, and drank ale, and relaxed. Then it was by bus to Milton Keynes to visit with Chris Mitchell and his wife Karin. What a fantastic time we had visiting and seeing the sights there. The Grand Juncture Canal was fantastic and the four of us visited some sites from the UK's National Trust program, which is just fantastic. Very impressive. Darrel and I had such a blast visiting with the Mitchells. Chris sang, and he's fantastic. Then the four of us, Darrel I and the Mitchells drove to Newcastle area to meet up with Bob W., Mike Wilson, his wife Cath, and their daughter Katy. The area here is absolutely beautiful, and Mike Wilson planned an itinerary that was just fantastic. I think we'd all agree the high point was when we crossed the dunes and found ourselves on Holy Island. Wow! Wait till you see everyone's pictures from here, and the other sites visited. They're really fun! From Newcastle we all said good-by, and Darrel I headed back south to catch a flight out of Heathrow. We traveled for 12 days, every two days on the move. As I've already said to our UK PDMLers, Darrel and I found kindness, generosity, humor, and friendship in abundance, and we're very grateful. We send xxoo across the pond. When in the Greenwich area, Bob W. took us to the Deptford St. Market. Here's a little gallery from that leg of the trip. Bob will post his gallery. His gallery is much better, but here's a little taste of the market--wonderfully multicultural! http://www.caguila.com/deptfordpdml Cheers, Christine -- 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: PESO -- The Little Black Dress
Very nice open shade. Interesting to see the dress in the window too. I've noticed a lot of this season's fashions in the stores are in ultramarine green (http://www.stylelist.com/2012/03/01/pantone-ultramarine-green_n_1311410.html), but very few ladies are actually wearing it on the street.

Re: OT GESO - Oly 12mm
Thanks Christine, Still liking the combo very much, and shot some more this weekend. Two little niggles I don't like so much. The battery life is, in Cotty's immortal words, a piece of poo. I had three batteries with me, and still ran out mid afternoon, putting an end to the proceedings. And I miss the Pentax green button. With the OM-D in Program, program shift is easy enough with one of the top dials. But to get it back to the program line, you have to turn the dial until the Ps becomes P.
