“Does anyone still use their local and/or public libraries?”

Yes - a little something from me on 12seconds on last night, if you like, http://12seconds.tv/channel/ki... - Kirk Kittell
Of course. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
lol, this is friendfeed... librarians rule friendfeed ;) - Michael W. May via twhirl
Absolutely! - joshua m. neff
Yes. I still use libraries. - possible248
all the time - RAPatton
lincoln center has the most amazing music/dance library. i totally nerd out there. not often, but when i do, it's on! - Melissa Maskevich
Good question...I haven't been recently, but with recent economic downturn, I bet libraries start to get a lot more activity. Who doesn't want free resources like books, music, movies, etc? - Pete Delucchi
Studies show that libraries do get busier in hard economic times. Not just because of the free stuff, but people also need resources on finding jobs, managing finances, etc. - JMakesAwesomeSauce

Yes. That way I don't have to figure out how to pass the book along (or whether I should) when I'm done. - Jeanine Walters via Alert Thingy

NOM! My favorite sammich place closed, but I used to get turkey and swiss with cucumbers, sprouts, red peppers, spinach, and tomatoes. And cucumber wasabi sauce.... - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)

“Went to IHOP tonight and had an omelet. Learning to navigate vegetarian eating has proven somewhat difficult in bohunk KS this week. I will be purchasing a good cookbook soon so I don't completely starve. My meat cravings are passing slowly.”

are you new to vegetarianism, or just trying to eat veggie in inhospitable states? - Trent Olson
i think going veg is much easier than it was 20 years ago, when there was so much emphasis on making sure you got enough protein by combining foods (dairy + whole grain). - r0ch3LL3
I'm new. Started while I was on the meditation retreat and had no choice about food. But decided to stick with it. I can tell a difference in how I feel already. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
right on! welcome to the club! i'm happy to help with any questions, advice, etc...i've been veg for 16 years now, and can't even think about going back. - Trent Olson
do we have a vegetarian room yet on ff? i looked for one a while back, but couldn't find it. - Trent Olson
You're right Rochelle. And there are so many more options in most grocery stores. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
had an awesome burger today - Jeff Quinton
i've had many an awesome veggie burger, too, Jeff! - Trent Olson
Maybe you should start one Trent. It'd be a great place to share recipes and other tipes. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
i love morningstar. were i to go veggie, i'd buy even more of their stuff than i do now. - Kaia is a party pooper.
I'm having a hard time finding Morningstar around here. Might have to try our local coop. I plan to start shopping there more often anyway. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
Good luck. My wife is a Vegetarian. She can make a Veggie meal at any restaurant. Most places will replace the burger with a veggie burger if asked. Good luck on the move. I don't think I could give up meat myself. - Bored
JMS -- I missed this post -- how is it going? I've been veg since '89, so feel free to ask if you want any advice or support or whatever. (and Morningstar is likely not to be at Coop, it's a Kraft brand, but it is in weird place sin supermarket. Check by their breakfast foods) - rudibrarian
I'm doing pretty good. I've found the Morningstar stuff. Here it's in produce for the refrigerated stuff. I found a great cookbook that will be going on my Christmas list. And I'll probably be asking questions though. Thanks so much Rudibrarian. It's amazing how much better I feel since cutting out the meat. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
My wife does really well at restaurants. She just asks for the meat on the side and then gives it to me. ;) - Bored
Sounds like you do well too Christopher! LOL - JMakesAwesomeSauce
Deborah Madison's cookbooks are super. Heidi Swanson is another great resource. Find her at 101cookbooks.com. - lisa-k

Friday at 12:07 pm - via Bookmarklet - Link
"Our childhood died when we realized that our precious GI Joe lunchbox would no longer impress our friends but get us laughed at and called a baby. As we carried our brown paper bag in shame, one graphic designer mused a solution. Her lunchboxes, seen here, hold food with style, folding out to reveal a facade of dining on fine porcelain plates or even just simple plastic dishes on the beach." - Victor Ryden via Bookmarklet

"this collection comes from a heap of discarded photographs, found in a venice alleyway by my friend, mike lee. i was on vacation in cape cod when he called, asking if he should rescue them. he thought i'd be the only person he knows that'd be interested in them. other neighbors had looked through and passed, but mike's descriptions of the early 70s rock bands and buggy eyed entertainers unleashed an anxiousness in me,. i told him to save as many of the photos as he could." - Cee Bee via Bookmarklet
most of the photos in the collection are marked by a signature stamp in the lower corner, saying "james j. kriegsmann." google immediately yielded the basics... as it turns out, james j. kriegsmann is one of the most famous publicity photographers of the 20th century. his images of frank sinatra and louis armstrong are iconic. he was known for being particularly good with touching up photos to make people look great -- especially black musicians who had never before been so artfully lit. in this collection, you can see his markings for retouching, which were often there to make men's suits look less frumpy, make women look thinner, and sometimes, just to simplify an image for the sake of greater visual clarity. it doesn't take long to see the depth of kriegsmann's artistry in this collection, which seems particularly clear in this collection, thanks to the absence of fame and historic "importance" of his subjects. - Cee Bee

it's better than a cliche sexy nun/nurse/hooker outfit. or maybe not - Cee Bee
cee bee you're right. i've always ranted on how halloween has morphed into dress like a skank day. i wrote a blog post on it last year. i do openly mock women who dress skanky for halloween. there's just no call for it and 99.9999% of them really don't look sexy. - Faboo Mama

Head Kenzan Japanese massager

Thursday at 7:09 pm - via Bookmarklet - Link
"The Head Kenzan is a delightful scalp massager with a unique Japanese twist. The brush structure is inspired by “kenzan,” a traditional tool used in Japanese flower arranging to hold the flowers in place. With 92 bristles that hit upon that perfect balance of not-too-hard and not-too-soft, the flexible Head Kenzan molds itself to your head. Simply use the handles on either side to run the brush back and forth, massaging and energizing your scalp." $47.00 - Cee Bee via Bookmarklet

I have recently got a hard outer case for my iPhone and that causes the lens to be set back a fair bit. I have noticed I am getting alot less lens flare and my photos are coming out fantastic. Has anyone else noticed this? - John Worthington
I don't use a hardcase so I wouldn't know... Anyone? - Mona N.
@mona i don't have an iPhone but you can achieve the same thing with any camera by recessing the lens. You're basically allowing less light to hit the lens at an angle. ;) - Brandon
oooh, I like the post-processing! - lisa-k
I'm no photographer, but isn't that what aperture is? - Mona N.
@john, I don't have a hard case, but that would make sense, sounds like it acts as a mini lens hood. @mona, have you seen the CameraBag iPhone app? http://johnbiehler.com/2008/09... - Alan
Mine's still the 1st gen. :) - Mona N.

To decrease lens flare you would use a "lens hood" ... the hard case acts in the same way as a lens hood except on a smaller level http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L... ;) - Brandon
