For those of you digital shooters, when you are looking for a specific b&w or sepia shot, do you:

A) Shoot color, and de-sat afterward in photo-editor??

or do you

B) make the adjustment in camera to b&w or Sepia??

For those that do it in an editor, do you start with grayscale, and adjust tones, etc..., or just use a percentage of de-sat (or negative color saturation)??

Personally, I shoot everything in color mode, and de-sat afterward. I was wondering about un-neccesary on-camera functions.

Whats your opinion?? Does it matter with digital??

Hi, I am 28 weeks pregnant right now and so far my breast have not dramatically increased in size. They have been pretty sore now and then but they are no bigger than before. My question is...I was not able to breastfeed my first baby and I REALLY want to nurse this second baby as much and for as long as I can....but honestly I think to myself " I have small boobs....CAN I successfully breastfeed" Does the size of your breast have anything to do with how much breastmilk your body can produce??

I'm 19 years old and I have severe pain in almost all of my joints. It usually hurts the most in the morning, at night when I try to sleep, or when I rest for a while.

Could it be arthritis?

I also have no medical insurance to see a doctor.
What do you think I should do?

A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her
students. The teacher asked, "Harry, what's your problem ?"

Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd
grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade
too !"

Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal's office.

While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the
principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would
give the boy a test. If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to
go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed.

Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he
agreed to take the test.

Principal : "What is 3 x 3 ?"

Harry : "9."

Principal : "What is6 x 6 ?"

Harry : "36."

And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader
should know.

The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, "I think Harry can go to
the 3rd grade."

Ms. Brooks says to the principal," Let me ask him some questions."

The principal and Harry both agreed.

Ms. Brooks asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of ?"

Harry, after a moment: "Legs."

Ms Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have ?"

The principal wondered why would she ask such a question !

Harry replied : "Pockets."

Ms. Brooks : "What does a dog do that a man steps into ?"

Harry : "Pants."

Ms. Brooks : What starts with a C, ends with a T, is hairy, oval,
delicious and contains thin, whitish liquid ?"

Harry :" Coconut."

The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.

Ms. Brooks :" What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky ?"
The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the
answer, Harry replied, "Bubble gum."

Ms. Brooks : "What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down
and a dog does on three legs ?"

Harry : "Shake hands."

The principal was trembling.

Ms. Brooks : "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a
lot of heat and excitement ?"

Harry : "Fire truck."

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher," Put Harry
in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong....."

My wife loves me very much. She says her soul is satisfied, but doesn't need to be physical as much. My wife satisfies my soul, but not my physical needs. Recently I've met a woman who is in a similar situation with her husband. Neither of us want to leave our spouses, but the physical attraction we have toward each other is so strong, that we feel the pain of loneliness when we are apart. Why is it wrong to satisfy our souls, but not give in to our physical desires without the reprocussion of guilt?

the Constitution has no such thing but says simply "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof?"
In other words, for those of you that say "Seperation of Church and State!", they will not make any religion the main one of the US. That is why the US is not a Chrisitan Nation even though the majority is Christian. It says nothing that people cannot be religous upon entering the office, or going by their own personal beliefs when passing laws and such.

Anyone who thinks national healthcare will work needs to go and sit in the social security office and get a new social security card. While there, imagine that all those people are waiting to see a doctor and that they are sick. Next, go to the passport office and pictue these as sick people trying to get to a doctor. Then, come back here and report what you've seen.

I dont really care they took the backward compatability away i dont own any ps2 games any more.
I am basically getting a ps3 for a blueray player.

I currently have a 4 guage amp kit with 8 guage distribution to my Alpine MRP-M650 powering a 12" Type R and a old Alpine MRV-F307 powering 4 5x7 100 rms speakers. When I install my new Alpine MRP-F550 with 4x90 rms will I need to upgrade my 4 guage to 1/0 or change my alternator which is currently 105 amp. Also should I power the sub amp with 4 guage instead of 8?

Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.


The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. Instead the angels were given a space in the cold basement.


As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied... "Things aren't always what they seem".


The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife.


After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest. When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field.


The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel "how could you have let this happen!? The first man had everything, yet you helped him," she accused. "The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let their cow die."


"Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied. "When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall.


Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it. Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave her the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem."


*********


Sometimes this is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to your advantage. You might not know it until some time later.
