<::: UPDATE FROM BEV DAY--August 6, 2009

"Bandit is doing well and going from perch to perch now.

There are 15 eagles in field flights and we want to get a few of them released before we move Bandit. Those birds have now been banded for release.

It's just a matter of how fast we can arrange for their releases but probably near mid-week or by next weekend. Once that's done Bandit will graduate to Field Flights.

His feathers are looking healthier with a nice sheen on them as juvies should have.
Probably the different diet he's getting."

Great news :><: :><: :><: thanks Bev

Lala good for you for chatching that but now what do they do? I know people resubmit from one year to the next in Home Arts. But we remember stuff and people and they must think we are just a bunch of dummies. Or that the same people are not there from one year to the next. And you are absolutely right about the judging it's all preception. What I like you may not.....I like the ribbon on Scout. He looks like he likes it too!!!

Been out all day shopping for table. Still not done but will "hit" it again tomorrow.
Also looking at a new place for my DD. She is wanting to move pretty bad too. Found a cute place....lot closer to me!!! Hope she takes it.

Hiker that is a nice picture from the hill. Not many days anymore that we can see the islands from the hill. I don't know how you can wait til family gets to California. You have a lot of patience. I'd be on the plane to Boston. If those kids have very much of you in them, they will be coming on the plane by themselves to see you. :lol: I thought of asking you about rental for DD but she does not want to be in Ojai either....so sorry.

Glad Earthlink is getting better. That is such a pain....GGGGGRRRRR

But this goes to show you about judging... this is a 'famous' picture that has won many major awards for the photographer... and our local judges gave it an Honorable Mention....

The Superintendent of photography just called me and we had a nice chat... she remembers me from the past few years.. very nice woman... she thanked me for doing the research for her...

This is actually not as uncommon as one would think. I have known a few shooters whose shotts have been "lifted" off of thier site or one they posted an image to that were unbeknownst to them being used for some commerical enterprise without being told or compensated.

Today many working professionals do not even give "proof shots" for a client to select the final prints they want for such things as senior portraits or thier wedding shots. I have known photographers who have seen folks with their proof shots at the photo kiosks at wal mart or the local cvs actually making prints larger from the proofs.

Alot of those commerical photo kiosks have warnings about the reproduction of copyrighted materials which includes proof shots. Just because you may have hired seymour shots as the photographer for your event, that doesnt mean the shots are yours. Seymour holds the copyright normally and you are only purchasing the prints of the image and not the image itself.

Even wal-mart could question somebody whose image they suspect may just look "too professional". The reason they do this is that if there is a copyright infringement that they permitted , Fuji or Kodak can literally come in and take their equipment from them.

Amen George.....Paul gets that quite often where someone has used his photo for something and it's copywrighted. It's not always intentional.

Good morning Cruzers. :}^

I was able to be on line for about five hours yesterday. Installed the new modem that came last night. No change. :(

This morning, after doing a shutdown, restart, diagnostic, etc., I decided to see if I could get in like I did yesterday - by sneaking in the back door! :<::

It seems the problem isn't my internet line - or modem - or telephone line. It does not like the Earthlink home page!!

I go to favorites, and click on Eagle chat, and I got right in. :><: :><:

So off to write another "nice" nastygram to my provider.

Edit - minimized my eagle page and started a new internet page. Now that I have the eagle page working, my home page came right up with no problems. :blink: :wacko: The problem was, it won't come up first. But it will follow. It is scarey when you try to out think the computer - and it works.
